Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Polkeins]

I had no doubts about Inter`s victory, unfortunately Napoli have lost a lot of strength. Clearly I didn`t expect such a bad score for Napoli, 3 - 0 means that you were totally dominated.
Unfortunately it happens when there is a lot of difference between the teams.

This is a sad and struggling period for Napoli and their supporters, not witnessing good results in matches ruined everything for them. The difference between Napoli and Inter Milan diggers interms of performance this season. Simeone Inzaghi ensure he gets the best performance from his players and their ability to stay consistent in matches have also done a great push for the club to be ranking currently first on the table this season. I wasn't surprised to see the scoresheet, Napoli got humiliated with scores of 3 nil against Inter Milan last weekend.

Well the score does not fully reflect the course of the game, still Napoli had chances and in the beginning they pressed well and even hit the bar a couple of times, but then luck turned away from them and after a missed goal Napoli players apparently did not believe that they could win, besides Calkhanoglu played for Inter just fine and it can be said that he decided the outcome of the game with his first goal before the break.

Although I agree that Napoli are trying to overcome the legacy of Garcia and so far Napoli do not have a stable game, which actually puts an end to their attempts to become champions this year.

Something truly unexpected happened last night and Atalanta lost at home to Torino with a score of 3-0. Zapata scored a brace and Sanabria also scored a goal in this match and in this victory Atalanta was not able to get a goal back. I didn't expect Atalanta to lose so badly like this even though in H2H Atalanta was always superior against Torino, but in football there are times when this record can be broken when the team has a strong reason to win. On the other hand, this result meant that Atalanta was stuck in 8th position and Torino moved up to the top 10 of the Serie A standings after successfully overtaking Monza.

There are many differences between the two clubs, but I wasn't expecting Napoli to lose in such a way. As you can see, both clubs are in the Champions League, and they have the last game in the group stage. I assumed that since all of their attention would be on the Champions League, the game would end in a draw, but sadly, Napoli lost. Inter has been playing better than Napoli this season, taking the lead in the table, so Napoli's lose to them did not surprise me in the slightest. What still surprises me is that Napoli has struggled to return to its previous form of performance to make it so top. Roma have also overtake them with the same points but different goals.

Napoli coach Walter Mazzarri must allow his team to concentrate on the Seria A league because, in my opinion, even if Napoli advances past the group stage of the Champions League, they will not be able to qualify to the champions league final. If Napoli concentrates on the Seria A league, even if they are unable to win the league title this season, they should at least qualify to the Champions League next season, since Roma become serious to qualify to the Champions League.

Napoli losing to Inter Milan is not something I will surprise because Inter have been performing well this season and they are topping the table. While Napoli's performance is not that great, that will make doubts about their winning against Inter Milan. However, Inter Milan would not try play in such a way that Napoli will even win them because they are topping the standings, and they won’t want any other club to come and take the position from them so they need to play well. However, their attention would be focused on the Champions League, which is true, but you know how good their performance is this season, and since they are already doing well here, they won’t slack; they will struggle both in the serie A and the Champions League.

Atalanta must improve, even though they performed quite well in the UEL, they lost surprisingly against Torino. 3 goals from Torino making Atalanta failed to overtake Napoli positions in standing, who also lost by the same score. Next, Atalanta will meet Milan, a team that is currently also inconsistent. In this match, Atalanta must maximize all opportunities to score goals. For AC Milan this is an important match that must be won. Because Milan still has a chance to become Serie A champions this season, this win to keep the points different to Inter Milan still possible to be shifted.

I too was surprised by the result of yesterday's game... I expected that both teams would score and that there could be a draw, but I could not have guessed that Torino would score three goals... Now Atalanta and Torino are next to each other in the standings and they have the same chances to get closer to Napoli...

Atalanta's defeat by Torino was completely unexpected. And I think many people lost their bets in that match. I missed the match. But I was also disappointed with the match. Because Atalanta is not playing like usual. So I think the match against Milan next week will definitely be difficult for Atalanta. The only thing that can benefit Atalanta is because they are the hosts of the match. Because it will be held at Gewiss Stadium. But I think Milan are actually much more consistent this season. This is different from Milan last season, which was actually not as good as this season. This match will probably be quite fierce. But if Atalanta plays badly like in the match against Torino then I think Milan will win the match by a narrow score.

Just as the Champions League is important for Inter, it is also important for Napoli. They lost 4-2 against Real Madrid in the last match and will leave the group at the end of the last match. An important match for Inter ended in a 3-3 draw. Both teams lost points in the UCL, but Inter gained great morale by beating Napoli. I don't see many teams in the league that can stop them.

They could not show a consistent performance against Torino. Turin destroyed them. The 3-0 win was not something Atalanta expected, they will have to solve the problems related to this defeat among themselves. Because their next match will be against Milan and they should be very ready against them. Milan can be more ruthless and score more goals against them.

AC Milan can become one of the main threat of a club in Seria A this season because they're also fighting on their own sides to achieve goals. Atalanta doesn't match up the spectacular performance portrayed by the hosts, every club deserved a point only if they work so hard for them to be achievable. Torino is not the team we expects to be against Atalanta. The home team thrashed the visitors without mercy and they're heading closer to the top positions on the table. Il Vecchio Cuore Granata boss, Ivan Juric just have to take things easy and he will be accumulating good points sooner than expected.

As I predicted earlier that Inter Milan is strong opponent and they will never let Napoli dominate the match or even win.
But Napoli performance was still quite good because they were able to have greater possession of the ball than Inter, it just that Napoli front line really didn't seem that dominant in creating attacks that could break through Inter defense.

It is easy to predict Inter Milan will be a tough opponent, Inter Milan is one of the top teams in Serie A and they also played very consistently so far. They won 11 matches, 2 draws, and 1 lose only. Inter Milan maintain its position in the 1st place after they defeated Napoli with 3 goals. Inter Milan changed their tactics in second half, so they could play more offensive and got more shot opportunities. Although Napoli won the ball possessions in the first half, but they couldn't score a single goal in the second half. It seems Inter Milan defense quite strong, meanwhile Napoli attackers played unexpectedly.

Yes, that right, because Inter Milan is a very strong team in Serie A, last season they managed to reach the final and came out as runners-up because they lost to Manchester City.
Maybe it was true that last season Napoli was superior, but all that happened because Inter Milan was too focused on the UCL and now Inter Milan has returned to being great team by maintaining the top of the standings more stably.
But they qualified for the 16th round of the UCL and if they qualify again until the top 8 or like last season fought until they reached the final then, I sure Inter Milan performance in Serie A will also decline because they are focused on the UCL title.

This is a sign that Napoli will not win this Italian league title this season, because they are missing many potential players in this season that will make them not to survive at the end of the tournament..

Of course, there is no way that Napoli can win the title again this season. Only 2 teams that have a chance to win the title, they are Inter Milan and Juventus. I also doubt that AC Milan will have the chance to win it since AC Milan failed to maintain their good performance.

But in my opinion, AC Milan has pretty big chance of fighting for the title because right now it still quite early, with only 14 matches and total of 38 matches.
Everything can change drastically in the future and any team can develop even better, especially AC Milan has become fairly strong team with 9 wins with only 3 defeats in 14 matches.

It's a shame that Atalanta failed to get closer to Napoli. Torino's talak defeat meant that Atalanta couldn't move. Atalanta carried out an attack to break into Torino's goal, but in reality, 4 shots on goal did not produce results. Now Torino has collected 19 points and is in 10th place, 1 point different from Atalanta and Lazio, Torino could have the opportunity to climb back up the standings if they can get full points again in the next match.

This match is equally important for both clubs, Milan is not yet completely stable but recently Milan has scored 2 wins in Serie A. I think Milan will win the match even though they have to play away Atalanta is not in good condition lately Milan must be able to take advantage of the opportunities.

On the other hand, this result meant that Atalanta was stuck in 8th position and Torino moved up to the top 10 of the Serie A standings after successfully overtaking Monza.

Still, it was an away game for Atalanta, but this does not change the fact that the result was as unexpected as possible. A dry major defeat, I don’t even know what the odds were for such an outcome - definitely more than 30. Formally, Atalanta is very close to fourth place, but taking into account the number of competitors that are vying for this place, I don’t think that Atalanta has a chance, most likely they will finish the season even lower than last year (5th place).

Jose maurinho and his Roma team should as a matter of urgency first of all define their target and should start working towards their target by earning points both at home and on the road to help enhance their chances of playing in the champions league, I believe that should be the priority of every serious minded team in European football, so far from what we have seen,  it's obvious that Roma are not in best form but they are not doing too bad either and also need to step up their game and also score more goals during their matches so that they don't end up dropping points. Roma has been playing core Italian style of football for sometime now which means that they may not score much, maybe 1 or 2 but they would defend that scoreline until the end of the game and that's why they often get a draw in most of their matches.

Our expectations are always cut shorten. AS Roma doesn't seem obvious but they actually need to keep records incase of next time. The previous match, Roma won Sassuolo 2-1 and they're heading unto the next opponent next weekend. Fiorentina might later become the main threat for Roma. José Mourinho always knows how to manage his time in AS Roma and his players are the best squad in AS Roma this season. They have raised AS Roma from been the all-time average club to become one of the best clubs in Seria A since his arrival in the club.

Roma was so struggling to win against sassuolo. The competition to enter into the top 5 is so strict. Roma is still in the right track even though it was always struggling against it. The main problem is now when some players may not be consistent enough in any of their games.
Some players are not playing well like lukaku in the match against sassuolo. Jose needs also try to bring the new players into the club but im sure this is going to be cheap players again.  
When roma will try to get at least a quality player for tbe club? what it can do is always trying to buy garbage players.

[Strongkored]

If Atalanta win against Torino now, they can move Napoli in the standings. This is a very important game for Atalanta. They are in first place in the Europa League, so now they can concentrate on Serie A. But Torino is not an easy opponent, especially when they play at home.

If they win, Atlanta will still be 1 point behind Napoli and unfortunately, they failed to take advantage of that because they lost quite badly to Torino, so this is their second defeat in a row and from five matches they only produced four points making it difficult for Atlanta to enter the European zone, maybe they experiencing problems in terms of rotating players because they face busy schedules locally and in Europe so they don't get good results both in home and away matches and the opportunity to experience defeat again so that it becomes the third defeat in a row is also very possible for them to get because the next opponent is AC Milan, the team who are maintaining their appearance because they managed to get two consecutive wins so this will be a difficult match for Atlanta even as the home team

Many people have predicted Napoli's defeat, I myself initially thought it would be a draw but after researching in more depth the results are that Inter has a much greater chance of winning and in terms of performance the two clubs are actually almost the same but Napoli is starting a bad period after the change of coach and also Osimhen who just appeared after injury so it is natural that Napoli lost.
If only Napoli were still under Spalletti's management, maybe it would end in a draw or win, but in any case I will forget about that coach and want to see for a while whether Mazzarri will be able to bring good to Napoli.

Torino was never missing an opportunity unlike atalanta which has been getting some golden momentum but it was unable converting it into the goals. In fact, the main problem is still the same if atalanta needs a good striker at this moment.
It has no good attackers. I see no creativity was coming up from atalanta. Atlatana deserves to lose three points as torino played better during the match. I see that how torino was effectively using counter attack against atalanta.

Well done torino. Many people were losing caused by you. It's unpredictable result for sure.

Regarding the goal chances, there weren't many and there were only 9 for Torino to score those 3 goals and even Atalanta had a little more chances with 10. But it's possible that Atalanta's defense and goalkeeper weren't very good in this match, so they often conceded goals. In general, it will be difficult for Atalanta to break into the top 4 with the dominance of several strong Serie A teams and perhaps finishing in 5th place would be a rational thing for them. There is not much they can do about this and they will only remain the dominant team in the competition for the top spot.

Three goals dumped in by Torino? They have given too much time already to the coach, he should be replaced already. Last time I watch em playing like a team was during the Champions League before Illic lost his goal scoring form. A teams general performance comes from the coach and how he manages the player's within the squad.

There's no way Napoli would've defeated Inter Milan with a staggering form and display. Anyways Victor Oshime and some other players have just won awards last night. Victor Oshime should also come out as the favorite to win the African best player award next month. He deserves it just like the award won yesterday.
