Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Doell]

-snip-

The match is really hard to predicted because during this season both teams were displayed poor performance and indeed Udinese only lose 4 times but during this season Udinese got plenty of draw results which make them losing points and now they have to fight to avoiding relegation zone and for Verona their last winning on August from Roma and since that match total Verona has through an 11 matches without the winning result and although this is home match for Udinese but don't mean they will be the winner of this match especially from head to head statistics has been showed Verona is not a weak opponent for them because previously Verona has been experienced to beat Udinese however for betting options for this match i would like to prefer to draw or for safe bet both teams to scores could be a good pick

Yes, based on head to head Verona has a pretty good experience against Udinese, I also think about that. Especially, Verona also wants to get out of the relegation zone, so in the next match they will try best efforts to get points.
But I personally doubt it if bet on the draw although also the odds are very tempting, currently the odds for draw result are @3.30. Meanwhile for BTTS yes @2.07, it's better for me to take the safer option with BTTS yes, although it doesn't guarantee safe but it seems like Udinese and Verona can scored in that match.

0-3 after the first 45 minutes against Benfica (which scored exactly zero points before this game) and it looks like first place will go to Sociedad, and Inter risks getting to the top team right away in the 1/8. Despite local successes, Inter is still far from the European top clubs, and although theoretically they can win the Champions League, the likelihood of this is very small.

Inter comeback with 3 goals back in the second half but indeed for the position of Group winner is still owned by Sociedad in this case although there is still a chance to reclaim in the last match where they will face each other.
Inter did not do well in the first half because Joao Mario looked very easy to put a goal to Inter in the first half even it was hatrick in this match.
Fortunately the second half they made some buzz which in the end was profitable with 3 goals in return but this is not very good for Benfica because with a draw in this match the chances of being in the europa league are difficult for them because if they want to be there they have to win by 4 goals or more against Salzburg.

For Inter I am still pretty sure they are in the group in the last game because even though Sociedad are strong but Inter will try to win in their home game.

Yes, Inter was able to come back, but losing 0-3 after the first half is a little too much for a serious team. And if it had been like with City - Leipzig 0-2 then 3-2, but here Inter could only earn a point. Now in the last game Inter will only need to win to take first place (and avoid a potential meeting with one of the favorites of the tournament right away in the 1/8) so Sociedad will play in comfortable conditions.

The first half Inter played badly it is a fact that cannot be changed in this match even the 3 goals scored by Joao Mario he did it easily because there was no guard against him but indeed the change of plan in the second half was very good which made them able to equalize the score in this match but for this last match it is still a little complicated because it is their determinant whether they can or not at the top especially Sociedad also until now in the Champions League always played very well.
But before that they must also think about next week's match against Napoli because this is also important for them in order to continue to maintain their position at the top of the current standings.

[Raflesia]

But before that they must also think about next week's match against Napoli because this is also important for them in order to continue to maintain their position at the top of the current standings.

Its a tough match for both teams because while Inter are still looking to stay consistent, Napoli are still hoping for a decent result to keep them in the limelight after the coaching change.
Last week Mazzari made a successful debut at Napoli with a win for them but that doesn't mean they'll be able to pick up 3 points in this one as it will be a big match worth watching.

Napoli have the advantage of playing at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium which is the most comfortable place for them but Inter are still Inter. They will not waver even if they play away especially with the situation of their players now and some big matches they have previously won this will be a situation where Inter want 3 points also for this match especially the previous week when they competed against Juventus they only got 1 point.

[Docnaster]

I dont think Juventus will beat Monza easily. Even if they're favorites, soccer's unpredictable. Given its home edge, Monza could fight hard. After that draw with Inter, Juventus must go for those points to move ahead in the standings.

~snip~

I also think the same thing and sometimes Monza is like a team that will make it difficult for strong teams in every match. I don't deny that Juventus will have difficulties in this match and even being able to win with a narrow goal difference is a stroke of luck for Juventus. However, if the score ends in a draw, Juventus will be even further behind Inter and they will have to add homework in the following week.

If we talk about betting on Monza getting odds @3.90 and Juventus getting odds @2.01, those are quite tricky odds in my opinion and Juventus getting odds that big feels strange. So if we want to bet later, the possibility of a result of over 2 goals with odds @ 1.60 is much safer.

Monza without doubt is a very strong Italian team who are capable of beating any domestic club especially in their home turf on their day and that's why I don't think Juventus are gonna find it easy playing away against the the 9th placed team in the Italian Serie A standings but considering the current form of Juventus and the the kind of performance we have seen from them since the start of the season, beating Monza us more likely to happen than losing against them when they face each other later tonight.

Juventus hasn't won the Italian Serie A league title for the past three seasons and winning it in the initial nine seasons and that's why they are very determined to win the scudetto this season so the fans of the club can experience the feeling of been champions once again. Massimiliano Allegri knows how it feels to win the Italian title with the club as he's achieved that feat with them in the past and I wouldn't be too surprised if he does it again this season.

[makishart]

Juventus vs Monza is going to face today in Serie A league. This sets the stage for an interesting match-up as Juventus look to maintain their title challenge, while Monza will look to continue their unbeaten run and potentially move up the table with a win. With both teams having strong defensive records, the match will be an intense and tightly contested affair. Expected Monza will hope to capitalize on their home advantage to secure the three points, while Juventus will aim to continue their excellent form and put pressure on table-topping Inter Milan. Overall I think today's match will be 1-1 draw.

Juventus is likely winning the game. Monza was easy team for juventus. Juventus must get three points from monza to keep compete with intermilan for the scudetto. Intermilan has become the only strongest opponent for juventus right now. Missing three points from monza will be a disaster for juventus. The only chance for juventus to win scudetto is trying to keep get three points from any matches. Im sure that if many people are also hoping juventus to take the scudetto this season caused by juventus has been facing disastrous season.

It will be so good to see juventus win scudetto. As long as juventus can keep up to get full points continuously and the chance to win scudetto is very big.
Juventus will try to take the advantage from the busy schedules of intermilan. It will have so numerous matches to come with short interval.

[borovichok]

Inter is in a better position to win Napoli because they are still strong and haven't declined in their performance. So I don't see any reason that will make them not to play the normal way they use to play. I am not underestimating Napoli but the fact remains the fact, since Inter needs to maintain their first position as they will see that Juventus will have already top the league after they must have won Monza.

It is not yet certain that Juventus will stay on the first position for more than 26hrs because I don't think that Inter will allow this to happen because they will try their possible best to make sure they win Napoli. I think that Inter has more zeal and passion to win this season trophy than Juventus.

The facts is clearly stated out, we know the winning team and the one that will suffer defeats. Inter Milan will snatch three points from Napoli this weekend. Seria A matches are complicated when involves two elite clubs facing each other. This weekend will be one of the enjoyable ones because I'm definitely going to stream the Napoli match against the team that's ranking first on the table. Napoli new coach, Walter Mazzarri have a big test to pass this season, and it's against Simeone Inzaghi who we all know to be one of the very competitive coach in Seria A matches.

I think if Lazio would have played like they play in UCL , they would have been at least 2nd in Serie A but instead they chose to play super poorly in Serie A and now they do have a hard journey ahead of them in order to try to get back a lot of lost points that should bring them back in top 5. However , I don't think they have chances to get back in UCL spots for next year so that's why I think they will sacrifice a bit of Serie A games in order to have a deep run in UCL

The target in the UCL will also be quite tough in the next round if you look at Lazio's less than impressive performance this season. however, they experienced many losses from their games last season. in Serie A they still have a chance to rise. They must use the half-season to improve their team and their game. if that works, they do well for the rest of the season. It's not difficult to catch up to the top 5 in the ranking.

~~ Snip ~~

In the previous match in Serie A, the fact that Napoli who had changed coaches managed to win away for the match against Atalanta. I think that's a good thing of course, because basically Atalanta is also not a weak team at all. So yes, playing at home against Inter in the next match in Serie A, I think it could be that Napoli will still manage to be able to play well. But yes, at least if we consider about the results they get or they have so far this season for home and away matches. Then I think it is clear, that Inter still have good results for away matches but unfortunately, Napoli do not have good results for home matches so far this season. But maybe, Walter Mazzarri can improve Napoli's performance for home matches to be even better in this match.

Well that could be a concern for Napoli with their new coach, indeed in his first match he could give Napoli a victory, but when playing in the Champions League, the fact is they also still get defeated, yes even though we know at that time they faced a strong club like Real Madrid.
I can't conclude their performance with the new coach, because I still have to see from a few more matches, and for the coach, of course, adaptation and understanding the character of each player will take time. But as I said above, for Inter Milan this is not an easy match.

In the last two weeks and in the coming weeks, Napoli and Inter Milan will have to face tough opponents. In the last two matches in Serie A and the Champions League, Napoli recorded one win and one defeat, while Inter drew in the two competitions. The match between Napoli versus Inter Milan is quite interesting to watch, because it brings together the Scudetto title challenger and the defending champion. This match suggests avoiding a draw, because Juventus will benefit if that happens.

Napoli is determined to immediately reduce the gap in points with Inter, the opportunity is now considered good because they are playing at home. Inter had a bad note when they visited Napoli headquarters, maybe this time with the depth of the squad they have they can change that. Juventus certainly hopes that Napoli can hold back Inter pace, because they are quite confident they can beat Monza in the opening match of Week 14.

However , I don't think they have chances to get back in UCL spots for next year so that's why I think they will sacrifice a bit of Serie A games in order to have a deep run in UCL 

It doesn't matter how well Lazio does in the Champions League because in the end, Lazio will still be eliminated in the knockout phase. Although for example Lazio is focusing more on good results in the Champions League but still, basically Lazio does not have the quality to be able to go further in the knockout phase in the Champions League. Also in my view, that Lazio is not a team that is always consistent with good results every season. So ya, if at this moment Lazio are only in the middle of the table in Serie A, I think that is a reasonable result too and has nothing to do with Lazio schedule in the Champions League.

[topbitcoin]

But before that they must also think about next week's match against Napoli because this is also important for them in order to continue to maintain their position at the top of the current standings.

Its a tough match for both teams because while Inter are still looking to stay consistent, Napoli are still hoping for a decent result to keep them in the limelight after the coaching change.
Last week Mazzari made a successful debut at Napoli with a win for them but that doesn't mean they'll be able to pick up 3 points in this one as it will be a big match worth watching.

Napoli have the advantage of playing at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium which is the most comfortable place for them but Inter are still Inter. They will not waver even if they play away especially with the situation of their players now and some big matches they have previously won this will be a situation where Inter want 3 points also for this match especially the previous week when they competed against Juventus they only got 1 point.

Yep, at the end of the day, this final result could determine the stigma about these two clubs that will be playing. Because after all if in the end Napoli lose then this will raise a new stigma about Mazzari who will be considered unable to compete in the  race for the Scudetto this season and the new coach was unable to make Napoli able to make a difference but if in the end Inter lose this match then there will be a situation where the slackening of performance that could have been exploited by several other club especially Juventus which until now is still tightly attached to Inter at the top of the standings.

It will be another interesting match in week 14 of Serie A. And yes now we must prepare to see Juventus play against Monza.

[Weawant]

I also think the same thing and sometimes Monza is like a team that will make it difficult for strong teams in every match. I don't deny that Juventus will have difficulties in this match and even being able to win with a narrow goal difference is a stroke of luck for Juventus. However, if the score ends in a draw, Juventus will be even further behind Inter and they will have to add homework in the following week.

Definitely Juventus may have some difficulty with this match especially if the think Monza will be an easy team because they are like a team a little above average in their performance this season having won one out their last five games and lost three drew one so far.

They are at the ninth position with eighteen points  after playing  ten league games this season in the serie A. In January when monaza last played against Juventus, they won by two goals and in this match they will be hosting Juventus again putting them at such advantage which I suppose will be enough reason for them to resist Juventus, considering they have a good defense line aswell but then it turns out Juventus remains the favourite for this match.

[el kaka22]

I still think that Inter has a bigger chance, yes Napoli has been doing great recently and they have a new manager and doing fine and all but the reality is that we are talking about the league leader here, not some small mid table or bottom of the table team.

Inter is great, Martinez is scoring like crazy and they have a bigger chance to win. Osimhen has been looking terrible this season, I said that Napoli should have sold him this summer when they had the chance, there were great offers, they rejected the offers and because of that now he worths a lot less, what did they gain from keeping him? There were two possibilities, either you keep him and win something with him and earn more which seems not happening or you keep him and he keeps playing amazing and he worths more which looks like not happening neither. This is why it's quite obvious that we are talking about something that will not be all that easy to handle and should be a problem for them.

[LGD2Business]

Juventus will play away in a Friday evening match. Even though Monza hasn't been able to win much recently, they appear to be a team that is not easily defeated and plays good defense.
The odds for Juventus to win in this match are very attractive. There is a strong possibility that Juve will come out of this difficult away game with a victory and take the lead, even if it is for one day.
I will wait for the starting 11 to be announced before placing my bet, but if there is no big surprise, I think I will play the Juve win. If Vlahovic and Chiesa play, I have no doubt about the bet.

[poodle63]

It's true but lazio was aiming to get money from playing in UCL. When you were able to passing the group stage and then you will receive more when you will play at the play off stage. The chance owned by lazio to get UCL trophy is zero but it's not about that. The middle tier club like lazio was aiming to get additional money by playing in UCL. In fact, many clubs were also seeing UCL as a way to get more income from football business. Even some coaches were valuing UCL spot as a trophy caused by they knew that being able to play in UCL means you will get more money. This has become the main target owned by lazio. Nothing surprise if lazio will fail in the knock out stage as winning UCL was not its main target

So ya, if at this moment Lazio are only in the middle of the table in Serie A, I think that is a reasonable result too and has nothing to do with Lazio schedule in the Champions League.

Lazio has definitely performed really well so far in the Champions League competition. But in the Italian league, they have been very inconsistent. I can see they only have one win in the last five matches in the Italian league. That is just not good enough for them. At this, I think, they might actually not even play in the European competition if they continue performing like this. Because I am pretty sure they are not going to reach even the semi-final of the Champions League competition.

But there is still a long time left in this season. And they have a good amount of time to improve their performance.

[Jody.Drummer]

Well that could be a concern for Napoli with their new coach, indeed in his first match he could give Napoli a victory, but when playing in the Champions League, the fact is they also still get defeated, yes even though we know at that time they faced a strong club like Real Madrid.

Inter had a bad note when they visited Napoli headquarters, maybe this time with the depth of the squad they have they can change that. Juventus certainly hopes that Napoli can hold back Inter pace, because they are quite confident they can beat Monza in the opening match of Week 14.

Of course Juventus is a club that will greatly benefit if the meeting between Inter Milan vs Napoli ends with a draw, they can shift Inter Milan from the top of the standings if they can win against Monza. On paper, Juventus face an easier opponent than Inter Milan, and that makes them a great opportunity to win this match, even though this is an away match for them. But I'm sure Juventus also see a good momentum for them this week that they can then utilize well.

Oh yes actually if Inter Milan draw too they are still at the top of the standings, it's just that the points between them will be the same.

[BALIK]

I still think that Inter has a bigger chance, yes Napoli has been doing great recently and they have a new manager and doing fine and all but the reality is that we are talking about the league leader here, not some small mid table or bottom of the table team.

Inter is great, Martinez is scoring like crazy and they have a bigger chance to win.

This is why it's quite obvious that we are talking about something that will not be all that easy to handle and should be a problem for them.

Yes, and at the same time, the team performance from Inter does look a lot better compared to Napoli. The current form also looks better. so I am going to say that it will be inter who will win this match. But I still think that the match is going to be very close. And one key thing that you mentioned is Osimhen not being able to perform well. He was a key player for Napoli. And if he is unable to perform, it definitely is bad news for them. Because he is the one scoring most of the goals for the team. And at the same time, the striker of their opponent is playing really well. So things are not looking good for Napoli at this moment.

Juventus will play this evening, if they win they will be the leader of Serie A.

[MAAManda]

The odds for Juventus to win in this match are very attractive. There is a strong possibility that Juve will come out of this difficult away game with a victory and take the lead, even if it is for one day.

When I saw your post saying that Juventus had attractive odds, I immediately looked at it on Rollbit and was surprised that it got @1.94 (almost @2). I don't know the reason behind Juventus getting this high odds, even though they have been performing well recently. Is it likely that we will see a surprising result in this match? I mean like Juventus lost to Monza .

I will wait for the starting 11 to be announced before placing my bet, but if there is no big surprise, I think I will play the Juve win. If Vlahovic and Chiesa play, I have no doubt about the bet.

There are no names for either of them on the suspensions and injuries page on transfermarkt, so it looks like they will both play in this match, there's still 1 hour left before the official line-up is released.
