Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Zanab247]

Inter Milan literally played the perfect game against Udinese. I had a look at the statistics and their passing accuracy was 93%! I have seen some teams reach 90%, but I can't remember I saw an accuracy of 93%. This team is brutal. And it also was another clean sheet. Juventus Turin is getting good results, but their game is not really that convincing. It is surprising to see them have so low ball possession when they actually play at home. But the goal was enough to beat Napoli.

Many people thought the game will end up draw 1:1 the way Udinese appear in the first half before the Inter Milan talented strikers begin to show some efforts to secured some goal that brought them victory. I don't think there is any doubt about Inter Milan winning this Italy serie A trophy because, the evidence people what to see in this season to know which team will win the Italy serie A trophy which Inter Milan has stood on a solid position to lift the trophy before the end of this tournament.

 I believe you can see that Juventus won that game by luck because, Napoli players later got it right to use second half to equalize the goal but it was late for them to equalize the goal and the game ended in favour of Juventus.

Dybala was injured again.

After all, it was a good decision for Juvenut to lose him for free.

Already skipped 40 days since the start of the season.

AGAIN?

How does this player keep getting injured? In my opinion, a player like this is not useful at all, in fact he is a real burden for a team that has ambitions to play at high levels, I think his value will drop a lot

[khiholangkang]

In the Serie A, Roma hasn't really been in their best of performances but they've no doubt been trying in the aspect of meeting up the race for the European cups ticket. In their recent games, they've lost and also drawn some of the games and now their main striker will be out for their subsequent games which seems tough too. Their first encounter with Bologna will definitely be a tough ride because, they both are in the same range of performance technically and they both have a purpose to fight for. None would want to take their chance.

Roma will not have their best players for the match with Bologna as Lukaku, Zalewski will be off, Dybala will be missing because he was injured in the match against Fiorentina. Bologna and AS Roma have same total points and their coming match will decide what team will take the fourth position. If they end it with a draw, Napoli will have their chance to take a fourth position from Roma.

Without two best attacking players, Mourinho will let Roma starting that match very defensive and wait for mistakes from Bologna to counter attack and find three points. The key for Roma is their midfield and defense system must protect Patricio good enough before they can exploit Bologna system.

I think it will be difficult if many of their main players are injured, it will at least change the strategy that should be a mainstay for Roma in dominating the game and producing goals.

The absence of some players who have a greater influence will certainly hamper the movement, we know that Bologna today cannot be underestimated, they played quite well and collected very competitive points. I think AS Roma will lose the match against Bologna if their main players are not available.
Maurinho must really rethink it and must have a powerful strategy in the match against bologna because it is a decisive match to maintain position 4 of the standings.

Empoli vs Lecce

I have been noticed about Empoli performance because recently this team has been showing good progress that although it cannot be says good but at least from 9 matches in Serie A Empoli can able to gets 3 wins and this also makes their position was at 17th now and for Empoli opponent Lecce although from the position on league standings Lecce slightly better than Empoli but this team is still struggle to gets the winning results because from the last 10 matches in all competitions Lecce only able to gets 1 win so if we see from these statistics obviously Empoli is slightly better

Empoli and Lecce most likely will playing with all of their key players because so far there was no players who got injured or suspension from them and Empoli has good records from Lecce while playing at their home ground because from 2 last meetings at home against Lecce they can win all of those matches and today too i feel like they will being an the winner of this match and collect 3 points and Empoli win has odds 2.60

Empoli will be looking to climb out of the relegation zone and a win against Lecce could greatly help their cause. Lecce, on the other hand, will be aiming to end their winless run and secure points to maintain their current position in the table. Empoli's recent scoring improvement may give them an edge in this match, but Lecce ability to find the back of the net could also be a threat. With both teams needing a win, this match is likely to be fiercely contested. With both teams hungry for points, this match is likely to be closely fought.

How does this player keep getting injured? In my opinion, a player like this is not useful at all, in fact he is a real burden for a team that has ambitions to play at high levels, I think his value will drop a lot

I think the "how" doesn't need to be asked here as he is so frequently injured that I agree it is questionable how important he is for the team. I think this is one of the most important factors to consider when signing a player. How often is the player injured? One of the best examples for this is Neymar and how he has been missing so many games due to injuries. Everyone got used to it. Neymar is injured? Of course he is...

I like those players who are high quality and extremely resilient or otherwise they wouldn't belong into the top of world soccer. If Ronaldo or Messi had been injured every 3 months, I guess they wouldn't have won a single ballon dor.

[hahay]

Playing against Fiorentina seems made to be a bad result for AS Roma yes indeed, I also know that the result is a draw and they get 1 point in this match. Also, although Dybala managed to make an assist for the goal made by Lukaku in this match, but in the end Dybala was injured again and also, Lukaku who also received a red card in this match.

So yes, with results like that I think it is certainly a bad result for AS Roma, because the two main players in attack line will be constrained to be able to play in the next match . So ya, although AS Roma managed to get 1 point in this match, but the impact caused in such a way, then certainly still not good for AS Roma.

[Jossque]

I can say that the Italian league was a bit barren in terms of goals yesterday.
There was no goal in the Frosinone-Torino match.Both teams have a mid-table form and frankly I don't think that these 2 teams have a chance to qualify for the European cups.I expect them to fight to stay in the league this season.Right now we see that both teams are in the middle of the table and frankly neither of them is bad.
Monza vs Genoa, the home side won by a single goal.Monza didn't have many shots on goal but didn't allow Genoa to score either.The goal came in the 83rd minute and took their points tally to 21, ahead of Lazio.

[Oluwa-btc]

However they allowed Fiorentina to dominate the game more and even pressed them to the point that Zalewski was committed and booked with a red card and it was some minutes after the booking that Fiorentina scored an equalizer goal, well I applaud Roma for holding their ground and defending it with one man down, they were supposed to get the 3 points since they had more advantage but atleast they didn't lose and secured a point which helped keep them in the top 4 currently.

At home I thought Roma would win. Because  in the last matches we saw a better performance from  Roma. And the Roma team is quite strong this season. They are unbeaten in their last  four matches. But Fiorentina  were strong opponents. This is why it was a bit difficult for Roma to win. At the same time two players in the squad  received red cards making i t impossible for Roma to win  this match. After Zelewski received a red card in the 64th minute, Roma played a defensive strategy to win 1-0. But Fiorentina took advantage of Roma's weak defense to score in the 66th minute to level the match at 1-1.

~
And these three games are against three big sides doing well in Seria A.
Bologna. Napoli and lastly Juventus all have been doing well exception of Napoli who have dropped massive development and form since appointment of Rudi Garcia. I'm not sure they'll win the three, they'll beat Napoli but not Juventus and Bologna.

Roma's opponents are  very strong in the next 5  matches. Roma team will play against  Bologna, Napoli, Juventus, Atalanta and AC Milan respectively in their next 5 matches. And Roma have to  win these matches if  they want to stay in the top 4 of the  points table. Without Lukaku, it will be much more difficult for Roma to  win these matches. Because Lukaku is now  the most important player in Roma's attack. However  Mourinho is quite an experienced coach. He will definitely find a suitable match strategy. He  will not want to fall behind the competition so quickly.

I didn't go down to see who's the next five, I was more concerned about the next three games without Lukaku and now the Injured Paula Dybala who also linked Romelu Lukaku for that goal.
Jose Mourinho has said he'll need players who fit into his standards I hope to see As Roma making the right call for the right players. Qualification for the Champions League next season will be hard but they jave to make sure they fight and get it regardless. The next five matches are not easy, the experience without players to carry out your plans has got to be a weak strategy. At least after the next three, they'll be having enough time to rest for the after Christmas for the next two, they could win two and lose two at same time lose one

[rendravolt]

Inter never ceases to amaze us with the performance they produce and they have just beaten Udinese with a landslide score of 4-0 without reply. Playing at Guizeppe Miazza gave Inter confidence in the support of their fans during the match and they dedicated this big win to those who came.

Calhanoglu, Dimarco, Thuram and Martinez are among Inter's goal scorers in the match against Udinese and this result again puts Inter at the top of the standings for this week and continues to widen the gap of 2 points from Juventus. I think it's always a pleasure to bet on Inter matches and they always respond to the results with consistent wins in each match.

Betting on Inter Milan this season is really fun, just like betting on Napoli last season. But this season it seems like we should avoid betting on Napoli more. But betting on Inter Milan this season seems much more trustworthy. Beating Udinese with a big score will really make other clubs start to fear when facing Inter Milan this season.

For the time being, their mainstay player, Lautaro Martínez, has also been the top scorer this season. With a total of 14 goals he has scored in Serie A with Inter Milan. Last season Osimhen really shone throughout the season. This time, it looks like it's Lautaro Martínez's turn to shine throughout the season. Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi seems to have much higher ambitions this season. Last season he succeeded in making Inter Milan advance to the UCL Final. It is not surprising that this season Inter Milan will again be a strong challenger in the UCL. In Serie A, I think Inter Milan is no doubt a candidate to hold the title at the end of season.

It's true that last season was an unbroken streak of luck when betting on Napoli and now the results are different and we can't bet on Napoli's matches this season considering they have lost their consistency completely. Inter is where we can make money by trusting him to win and that's why I put Inter on the favorites list when betting this season.

Changes in the top scorer list were not felt until this season and indeed Lautaro Martinez put his name at the top of the temporary top scorer list and even beat Osimhen, who was top scorer last season. Being in the UCL final last season was certainly one of coach Simione Inzaghi's big dreams and this season he will definitely be targeting the same results again if his players can have a bigger impact. Talking about Serie A, it is still quite early because their competition with Juventus will still continue, but if Inter can widen the gap to 10 points, it is possible that they will be the champions this season. But that also means that if Juventus experiences bad results in the future and we still don't know what the results will be.

[marcous]

Roma's opponents are  very strong in the next 5  matches. Roma team will play against  Bologna, Napoli, Juventus, Atalanta and AC Milan respectively in their next 5 matches. And Roma have to  win these matches if  they want to stay in the top 4 of the  points table. Without Lukaku, it will be much more difficult for Roma to  win these matches. Because Lukaku is now  the most important player in Roma's attack. However  Mourinho is quite an experienced coach. He will definitely find a suitable match strategy. He  will not want to fall behind the competition so quickly.

I think it will be very difficult, Roma's performance is inconsistent and they are not very strong either, Jose Maorinho still has a lot of work to do to improve the performance and quality of the Roma team.
IN this season the Roma team is having a really hard time against top Serie A teams so I think the next 5 matches will be very difficult for them especially with the absence of several important players, of course that will really affect their team's performance.

For Mourinho, the goal is to make Roma stay in the top four of the standings longer and will maintain their position at all costs. He understands that the future will be full of challenges facing big clubs as mentioned, and I think with his experience so far Morinho can find solutions regarding the limitations he is facing, namely the absence of Lukaku.

Regarding Lukaku, we have seen how Roma attacks have increased with his role on the front line, his goals have brought them into the top four gradually, indeed this is because Napoli are also lacking consistency, and they can make good use of the situation.

I think Napoli, Juventus and Milan are tough opponents for Roma, the best effort is to hold a draw. However, I think Atalanta and Bologna have more balanced strengths and games, and Roma has the opportunity to win in these two matches. Reportedly, this is Morinho last season in the capital team, he definitely wants to bring home one of the trophies to leave a sweet impression.

[Velvet78]

It was a really bad game for Roma and they should be thankful for not losing the game at least. Because they played with 10 players for a significant amount of time. In addition to that Lukaku also got a red card in the last minutes. It was a miracle that they didn't concede the second goal from Fiorentina here. Their performance in the first half wasn't that bad.

However the second half was like a nightmare to Roma. They couldn't do anything and they were under attack really dangerously.    Mourinho must be contented with the result as they got 2 red cards during this game.

It must be admitted even though Roma draw but Roma suffered a loss in this match I mean Roma will go through 2 important matches ahead without Lukaku, next week Roma will play away against Bologna we know Bologna is a Roma competitor to fight for Champions League tickets well, if Roma plays away without Lukaku I doubt they can win because Lukaku has always been a mainstay to score, the same thing in the next match when Roma has to face Napoli I don't know how they play in the next 2 matches.

Oh, I just realized that Napoli had come out of the top 5 the last 2 defeats make Napoli have to go down to 6th place whereas before I still saw them in the top 4 position, it's sad to see Napoli this season when compared to last season their performance is unstable and decreased even though they are still playing the same squad there is only a change in defense because one of the defenders moved to Bayern Munich, is that a reason why Napoli's performance has worsened?

It wouldn't be sensible for Napoli to play this badly just because of Kim Min-jae's departure. Yeah he was a really important member in the defensel line but the most of the squad is still the same now. They just can't be bad because of making a slight change in their squad. This is more related to their management rather than that.

Because Spalletti was doing amazing things with this team. However he wanted to leave his job after having a sensational season with Napoli. Since that day Napoli haven't been able to perform the same. Napoli's previous season performance was enormous though and I don't know if they would keep the same level if Spalletti didn't leave. But his departure is the main factor in this problem now.

[Jossque]

Salernitana are one of the teams with a high potential for relegation this season.Salernitana lost 2-1 against Bologna and are in the last place with 8 points after 15 weeks.Bologna dominated the game and deservedly so.They are also doing well this season and have 6 wins and 7 draws in 15 games.They are currently in 5th place with 25 points.
Roma vs Fiorentina ended in a goalless draw.There was no winner in the match between two in-form teams.Roma managed to take a 1-0 lead in the 5th minute with Lukaku's goal.The first half ended with this goal and in the second half, Zalewski was red carded in the 64th minute, leaving his team 10 men.Fiorentina scored 2-3 minutes after the red card with Martinez and managed to equalize the situation.There were no more goals in the match after this goal, but the last minutes were stressful.Both Lukaku and Milenkovic received red cards:

I like those players who are high quality and extremely resilient or otherwise they wouldn't belong into the top of world soccer. If Ronaldo or Messi had been injured every 3 months, I guess they wouldn't have won a single ballon dor.

There are a couple of factors that determine a player staying fit.
First, the type of body they have a factor. I don't know what makes one person's body stronger than the other. It could be hereditary or the things they eat, but what I know is that some players are justvprone to injury and there's nothing they can do about it.
No when you have a player like that, you have to manage him accordingly. The number of games he plays, the number of minutes he gets, the food and treatments he takes, all these can help an injury prone player stay in shape and not get injured regularly. This would work if the player is ready to put in the work.

Secondly, some players keep themselves very fit. We only see the output of Ronaldo and Messi, we really don't see how they work hard, eat well, avoid a lot of things to keep themselves in shape. Very few players can stay that fit. Check in the history of football, how many players stayed up at the toppest level for 15+ years.
So it's really no fault of the player, it's not like he likes getting injured. There are ways to manage player.
Pedri is injury prone today because he was not properly managed few years ago. A 19 year old played all games for Barcelona, played the nations league and after that gets called to play the Olympics. Teams, both club sides and national teams need to learn how to manage players properly.

Some players are indeed way more susceptible to injuries and they need more breaks than others, but there is a limit as to the control a coach can have over the physical condition of a player. If you have a player who is an integral part of the team and almost indispensable, what do you do as a coach when you know the next game you need that player but it is a risk to let him play? That is why these players can be a burden. On the one hand they are so good and important that the team benefits from them whenever they play, and on the other hand the team becomes weaker when they don't play. That is some volatility in the performance that can also be negative as the team needs to adapt every single time when the player is gone.

[SOKO-DEKE]

I don't know if there will be a winner in this match or not, because they're not in a good place with each other either and I'd prefer it to end in a draw. But maybe Empoli have the advantage in this match, because they will act as the host. However, with their current form I doubt they will be able to take advantage of their status as hosts to win.
Lecce achieved unsatisfactory results in the last 5 matches that could not win once and only got 3 draws, so it is likely that they will also receive a draw in this match.

From my observations, these two teams have the same level of performances as far as this season is concerned, despite not being in the same position in the table, so predicting the winner of this kind of match is always difficult, and that is why it is always hard to bet on this kind of game because it will be very difficult for some to know what will happen. The way I am viewing the game, based on their current performance, I am expecting the match to end in a draw, but if I should look and pick the favorite team that will likely win the game, I will go for Empoli because of their home advantages, and from their head-to-head record, it has been shown that whenever Empoli and Lecce meet, the team hosting the game always gets the advantage of winning, so today is Empoli's home game, so I am expecting better performances from them. But let's see what happens today; maybe there will be change.

[bitcampaign]

Because Spalletti was doing amazing things with this team. However he wanted to leave his job after having a sensational season with Napoli. Since that day Napoli haven't been able to perform the same. Napoli's previous season performance was enormous though and I don't know if they would keep the same level if Spalletti didn't leave. But his departure is the main factor in this problem now.

Spalletti is indeed very influential in Napoli because during his time as coach, Napoli managed to win the Italian league last season. After seeing the less consistent play this season, it is clear that it is increasingly difficult for Napoli to be at the top of the standings. Having experienced several changes in coaches at Napoli, there have been no significant changes so that Napoli have to be satisfied with their current position in the domestic league even though in the UCL they could possibly qualify for the next round.

[snipie]

Dybala was injured again.

After all, it was a good decision for Juvenut to lose him for free.

Already skipped 40 days since the start of the season.

AGAIN?

How does this player keep getting injured? In my opinion, a player like this is not useful at all, in fact he is a real burden for a team that has ambitions to play at high levels, I think his value will drop a lot

It wasn't an injury otherwise he wouldn't left walking the field. Dybala is suffering a muscular pain and should return in 10 days according to media. He made a decisive assist to Lukaku otherwise Roma wouldn't get even a draw.
Dybala will miss Sheriff's Champions League match and most likely Bologna's one in Serie A. He could return in Napoli's game if everything went as planned.

[temple]

Inter Milan literally played the perfect game against Udinese. I had a look at the statistics and their passing accuracy was 93%! I have seen some teams reach 90%, but I can't remember I saw an accuracy of 93%. This team is brutal. And it also was another clean sheet. Juventus Turin is getting good results, but their game is not really that convincing. It is surprising to see them have so low ball possession when they actually play at home. But the goal was enough to beat Napoli.

Even when Juventus held Inter Milan to a draw, we could see that Juventus didn't have much control of the ball. They defend more and make counter attacks. And it was almost the same when they faced Napoli. Although with a different formation. It seems Allegri knows the performance limits of his squad so he chose a safer method for his team.

And Inter Milan's performance this season is truly terrible. I didn't expect Inzaghi to be able to develop Inter Milan better from season to season. So it is not surprising that many people are now optimistic that they will be able to see Inter Milan lift the trophy at the end of this season. I personally am not so sure. But looking at their current performance, it cannot be denied that currently the best performance in Serie A belongs to Inter Milan.

This is what I noticed in several of their games recently. Juventus Turin used to be a team that had quite a lot of ball control and then built their attacks from there. But this changed as they are now really betting a lot on a single goal scored, which I think is quite risky. They are waiting for this one chance and then hope to take the game home. When you compare Juventus Turin to Inter Milan, I think that Inter is far superior despite the draw they had recently. It is Juventus Turin and getting a draw against them is fine, but over the course of a whole season I am sure that Inter Milan has more skill and endurance in reserve to win the title.

Of course, if a player is not properly nurtured from the start, he is going to end up being prone to injury later , there is nothing to be surprised. And we often see those players who actually peak early in their career, generally become a lot more injury prone towards the end.

You could just look at Neymar as an example, you know he was one of the best even in his early days. But now if you look at him he is just another name for injury. However I don't think we can actually compare other players with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. Because those two are just different . Those two are destined for greatness. Not every other player is going to be like them.

[el kaka22]

Honestly it was the red cards that caused so much issue, for nearly 30 minutes they had to play 10 people, and the last moments were 9 people, that's not all that common, we do see one red card in some games, but it's quite rare that same team gets 2 red cards. On top of that, not only they didn't get a win here (but they should be happy to get a draw) I think they should realize that they haven't lost neither, and they will have an issue next week when these players are missing.

They will be playing Bologna, a team right on their heel and same points as well, missing these players when you have a game that will matter a lot, it should be something that will cause a lot of trouble on the long run, we shouldn't really see it differently.
