Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Awaklara]

Having Lukaku back in the team and in the shape he is currently in is never bad of course, but the really decisive scenes in this game were the red cards. Those cards pulled the rug under Napoli's feet.

Lukaku got his goal, which helps him to quickly get back to normal and nobody cares whether he scored that against 9 Napoli players or 11 Napoli players. But for Napoli the tendency for the moment is bad and stopping it is hard.

Roma will try to get into the top 4 of the Serie A standings. This will help them get Lukaku permanently, which is said to be one of the conditions for Roma if they want to get Lukaku permanently. It's still quite confusing why not let Lukaku go permanently if Chelsea doesn't really need his services.
Even though Roma's current performance is not consistent enough, I am sure they can get a place in the UCL next season by finishing in the top 4 of the standings.

Osimehen just came up with an agreement and renewed his contract with Napoli, it should give an extra lift to the club. But it is the opposite. A loss to Roma and in the next match, Osimhen and Politano are unavailable. Napoli should be able to win over Monza and get the points they need, but without their strikers, this could be another disaster for the club already in trouble.

Well this news can dispel rumor that there is an internal conflict between Osimhen and Napoli as reported several months ago at the same time there is no way for clubs from the Premier League to bring in Osimhen. To be honest, I wonder why Osimhen extended his contract when Napoli's performance is not good, is he confident he can bring Napoli back to where it was last season? it must be admitted that Osimhen contribution to Napoli last season was truly extraordinary in fact almost 1/2 of Napoli's goals came from Osimhen but unfortunately this season the situation is very different and Victor Osimhen has only scored 7 goals so far also unable to compete with 5 other strikers.

Now our attention turns to Roma who are slowly starting to find their game Roma collected 10 points from 5 matches not a bad achievement, if they are stable like this then Roma could climb to 5th position. Next Roma needs to pay a little attention to defense, needs improvement because so far Roma have conceded 19 goals these weaknesses can interfere with its performance.

Top 4 indeed will being an Roma target this season because they want to playing again at champion league and Roma last participant on that competition was happened on 2019 and since that year Roma was failed to reach to top 4 and they had several times to playing at Europa league and being an the finalist last season and after beat Napoli indeed most of Roma players was in the good mentally and they were very confident can beat Juventus this weekend although i know this is hard match for them because Juventus was more good than them if we see based on head to head statistics

About Lukaku this season he was found his shape again because from total 20 matches in all competitions Lukaku can able to scores 13 goals and Lukaku haven't done it while playing at Chelsea but regarding his status currently Lukaku as loan player in Roma and last summer why Roma has decided only want to loan him from Chelsea because Roma doesn't have money to bought him and at the end of this season everything will be decided whether Lukaku will return to Chelsea or Roma will permanent him or Lukaku maybe will take other options moved to other teams instead of Roma or Chelsea

Roma will try to get into the top 4 of the Serie A standings. This will help them get Lukaku permanently, which is said to be one of the conditions for Roma if they want to get Lukaku permanently. It's still quite confusing why not let Lukaku go permanently if Chelsea doesn't really need his services.
Even though Roma's current performance is not consistent enough, I am sure they can get a place in the UCL next season by finishing in the top 4 of the standings.

In fact, Chelsea also wanted to let Lukaku go since last season when Lukaku was loaned to Inter Milan. Because Lukaku at Chelsea is considered a complete failure. Actually, I see Lukaku as a player who needs more adaptation. But Chelsea seems to only want to have players who immediately satisfy their hopes. And Lukaku failed in that regard. But strangely, when Lukaku was at Inter and also played with the national team, we could see that he was a great player with great accuracy and sharpness. So he is the player who was also the top scorer in yesterday's Eufa Euro qualifiers. And it would be very profitable if Roma wanted to buy Lukaku at the end of this season. Because at that time Lukaku's contract at Chelsea had also been reduced. So the transfer value will definitely decrease slightly. Even last season, Chelsea's price for Lukaku was deliberately lowered because they wanted to release him in a hurry. But unfortunately, no one is interested except just borrowing. Juventus was actually interested in exchanging players. But Juventus then had problems within their club which prevented Juventus from appearing in the European League. So Juventus decided not to buy many players in the transfer market yesterday and only used existing players.

Now Lukaku in Roma is gaining good momentum. And if Lukaku maintains his performance until the end of the season then it is natural that Roma will immediately be interested in getting Lukaku permanently.

After osimhen got a red card I think that was the genesis of Napoli's fall in the match against Roma, Napoli already had a very poor form and had a poor performance along side so the red card made things even worse for them because they were already struggling with complete players, a man down made it even worse.

Roma was beaten by bologna few day back and bologna nis a team that when compared to Napoli in strength and dept so it was more like a team below Napoli was able to win bologna so definitely or most likely Napoli should have been able to win Roma with little stress but then it turned out roma became a hectic game for Napoli to play, the next two games which osimhen will be missing is definitely going to have some effect on Napoli performance and their results will be affected aswell.

Napoli's performance was poor especially following Osimhen's red card. Napoli was already struggling when Osimhen was sent off. Politano's red card? Despite a full team, they couldn't find their groove. When it was down to 10 men, everything went haywire

I heard about Bologna beating Roma, and it's crazy to think that a team with less depth than Napoli managed to pull that off. It proves that teamwork is as important as player quality. Napoli's three losses are worrying. Perhaps they've lost their mojo. With Osimhen out for two games, I'm scared they'll struggle. Their performance must improve quickly

Osimhen and Napoli are responsible for what they do and they can not blame it on the referee or Roma. Osimhen did not make any good shot in the match and he lost his mind because he was controlled well by Roma defenders. When he was disappointed about his performance, he lost his patience, can not keep calm in this hot match and got two yellow cards for stupid fouls.

Bologna beat Roma and they even did one more winning, against Atalanta. Bologna are on fire now and they are at the fourth position, just behind AC Milan. The appearance of Bologna in top four is very shocked and they got it with their solid defense system.

After 17 matches, Bologna got only 12 conceded goals which make their defense system is a third best one in Serie A, after Inter Milan (7 conceded goals) and Juventus (11 conceded goals).

The match is spoiled by the referee giving too many cards, which gives Roma the chance to win the match easily. The first half ended in a draw, and the second half Napoli player Matteo Politano received a first red. It wasn't even up to ten minutes, Roma scored their first goal, when Napoli were already struggling and playing with minus one, ten against eleven. Osimhen also received a red card, after a player received another red card there's no any hope for Napoli in that match anymore, which gave Roma the chance to score another goal, pushing Napoli down to seventh place in the group standings.

Since Bologna beaten Roma that is exactly what I expected as well, since Bologna defeated Roma. However, we cannot compare Bologna to Napoli, so I was hoping that Napoli would win the match, but the red card made it worse. Napoli are losing their strength this season, they are not the same Napoli as last season, they are finding it difficult to lead the Italian league, with Osimhen missing their next two games, I don't think they will win the match easily. They will need to take action before Lazio and Atlanta overtake them.

Now Lukaku in Roma is gaining good momentum. And if Lukaku maintains his performance until the end of the season then it is natural that Roma will immediately be interested in getting Lukaku permanently.

I am not sure whether it has been discussed previously or not. what is certain is that at the moment it looks like Roma will make Lukaku permanent because previously Lukaku performance was very bad, but after Lukaku arrival everything changed for the better, the improvement in performance is quite good and it is clear that Mourinho really relies on this player. but the problem is the cost of making this player permanent, is Roma able to cover Lukaku contract costs?
because previously I had heard that Roma was having a bit of a financial problem but wasn't sure whether it had improved because I'm not a Roma fan so I dont know for sure about any developments in depth.

In terms of the depth of expertise that Lukaku has, Roma actually has nothing to lose by making this player permanent because Lukaku has been in Serie A with Inter for a long time, so Lukaku understands the playing style of any team in Serie A so well that I say Roma will continue to be strong with him made Lukaku permanent after that looked for other players to support Lukaku to continue scoring and bring Roma to the best ranking in the standings.

Roma scored the first goal when Napoli received a red card, as well as the second goal they scored when Napoli received a second red card.
The results of this match were certainly very disappointing for Napoli who hoped that a change of coach would bring change but it turned out that what was hoped for had not happened.
This victory allows Roma to reduce the difference in points with Fiorentina who are ranked, but next facing Juventus Roma will likely experience defeat.
Juventus is quite consistent even though they often win with a very narrow score because Juventus' typical game tends to be defensive and if Roma can break Juventus' defense makes it very possible for Roma to get points.

The match was fierce with lots of yellow cards and red cards issued by the referee in the match, and I think that's quite natural because the match was running with high tension and this was also a match between two of Serie A's top teams.
However, in my opinion, Roma's victory is quite realistic because Napoli's performance is currently in a very bad state and Roma can take advantage of this very well.

Napoli performance have turned and downgraded to become one of these random mediocre performance. Since the exits of their former coach that won the the scudetto this season, the club have grown to become one the club's with flopping records in the Seria A this season. Alot of things have fallen apart but we still have hope for Napoli to bounce back stronger than expected. The present of Napoli, Aurelio De Laurentiis makes attempts to revived the club but it's not working at the moment, he has single-handedly appointed and sack numerous coach and have become of the vital problems the club faces. Napoli will suffer this season, I'm seeing it coming their path gradually.

Luciano Spalletti was an important actor in Napoli's success last season, he managed to turn Napoli into a club that was very difficult to beat and in the end he managed to become the best in Serie A after winning the Scudetto. After Spalletti left Napoli's performance gradually declined, his replacement as coach was unable to maintain Napoli's performance as they achieved success last season.

Now Napoli is in seventh place in the standings, this position is not ideal for a team that won the Scudetto last season. If his performance continues like this, his suffering will continue in the next match. Finally, Roma managed to humiliate Napoli 2-0 and force them to drop to seventh place. It took a miracle for Napoli to be able to return to competition in the top four.

Luciano Spalletti's performance and efficiency with Napoli last season was something they've never experienced from a manager since they last won the Italian Serie A title in 1990. But what really surprised me was the fact that he left the club after a very successful season with the club as he lifted the Scudetto for the first time in over 30 years for the club.
Luciano Spalletti's departure didn't sit down well with majority of the club's fans because of how he really improved the performance of the Napoli team. Rudi Garcia was appointed to replace Spalletti but his time at Napoli was a forgettable one as he failed to continue with the great impressive performance of his predecessor which resulted to his sacking by the club's management.

However,  after the sacking of Rudi Garcia,  the club hired an Italian manager in the person of Walter Mazzarri and he somehow improved the performance of the team but unfortunately for him he couldn't help Napoli avoid a humiliating defeat at Roma last weekend. Napoli I think can still improve and do better under current boss if they are determined to do so.

Napoli have changed their coach. But they are still not getting any benefit. Their performance further deteriorated. Napoli played 8 matches after appointing a new coach and they lost 5 matches. Napoli's performance is getting weaker.

Napoli's performance against Roma was poor from the start. However, the first half ended goalless. But after Matteo Politano received a red card in the second half, Napoli players were unable to resist the attacks of Roma players. Napoli conceded a goal within 10 minutes. And Napoli's situation was further weakened after Osimhen received a red card in the 86th minute. In the end, Napoli lost the match 2-0. It is unlikely to see Napoli in the top 4 of the table this season.

In this match I bet against Roma team Napoli team performed poorly for which I did not win the bet. Napoli team will not score in this match.  Napoli's M.

R.  Lukaku scored the 2nd goal at 90+6 minutes.

Napoli's defeat is normal. Because Napoli only played with 10 players and then with 9 players. And all the goals scored by AS Roma players were every time Napoli lost a player in the match. Like the first goal that Roma managed to get in the 76th minute, it was 10 minutes after Napoli lost Politano who received a red card. And the second goal that AS Roma got in the 90+6 minute was 10 minutes after Osimhen left the field due to a red card. Well, this is a coincidence and also the luck of AS Roma who always managed to score a goal after 10 minutes every time Napoli lost 1 player due to a red card. So the victory achieved by AS Roma did not feel very pleasant, of course for some people. Because they won because they played against a team that lost players.

Having Lukaku back in the team and in the shape he is currently in is never bad of course, but the really decisive scenes in this game were the red cards. Those cards pulled the rug under Napoli's feet.

Lukaku got his goal, which helps him to quickly get back to normal and nobody cares whether he scored that against 9 Napoli players or 11 Napoli players. But for Napoli the tendency for the moment is bad and stopping it is hard.

Roma will try to get into the top 4 of the Serie A standings. This will help them get Lukaku permanently, which is said to be one of the conditions for Roma if they want to get Lukaku permanently. It's still quite confusing why not let Lukaku go permanently if Chelsea doesn't really need his services.
Even though Roma's current performance is not consistent enough, I am sure they can get a place in the UCL next season by finishing in the top 4 of the standings.

It is not impossible of course as they are very close to the top 4, but I am hesitant to believe they will make it eventually. The top 4 are set in stone almost I would say although maybe AC Milan will get into deeper trouble over time. But then there is some unexpected competition from Bologna and Fiorentina and Napoli is still not out of the game for the top 4. It is a single point separating them from Roma. If I had to pick my top 4 right now, I would not choose Roma.

It's not too challenging for Roma to get into the top 4 position as they play well enough they are already 6th in the points table and only 3 points behind the 4th position which needs only 1 game worse to fill and I think Roma can do it. Inter is doing very well this time in the Italian league, they are also ahead of all other teams. Inter can be champions of the Italian league.  Although now there are many matches to be played. So the position can change anytime so it is not guaranteed that they will be champions. But the possibility cannot be denied

In this match I bet against Roma team Napoli team performed poorly for which I did not win the bet. Napoli team will not score in this match.  Napoli's M.

R.  Lukaku scored the 2nd goal at 90+6 minutes.

Napoli started the match well despite they where playing in the home of Roma, but they blocked Roma plan to lead the match in the first half  by displaying well but the first half ended up draw 0-0 for the two teams to have hope of using second half to achieve victory.The red card made many people to lose their prediction because many people predicted for the favour of Napoli base on some kind players their coach used to start the match but the red card two of their players got, gave Roma opportunity to scored the two goals. But if not the red card that happened in that match, Napoli would have use the second half to equalized the goal and add another two goals to defeat Roma 1-3 but red card turned the match to the favour of Roma to defeated Napoli 2-0.

somehow that scoundrel Mourinho has to justify his salary, so at least he has to go to any cup
lucky him who managed to catch Lukaku, or maybe even good (he actually knows how to do this) who really saved the situation
Naples unwatchable

[Velvet78]

Bologna are still moving on determinedly on their way. They faced two tough teams to beat consecutively recently but they still managed to beat both of them - Atalanta and Roma. They are officially a top 4 contender for me especially after these important wins.    They haven't been losing for five weeks in the league.

Until facing Milan at the end of January I think Bologna's fixture isn't much challenging as well. They can continue without a loss until then. But in San Siro against Milan I don't know whether they can keep this up. They lost to Fiorentina away and maybe they could lose another big away game.

[rendravolt]

Bologna's victory over Atalanta was also quite surprising because both teams were at the same level and I thought the match would end in a draw. But the result was a narrow 1-0 win for Bologna and indeed home advantage is something that is very profitable for Bologna in this match.

The support from Bologna fans was never-ending and that was what resulted in the only goal being scored in the 86th minute which sealed Bologna's victory at home. In fact, Atalanta wasn't that bad either because they also repeatedly threatened Bologna's goal, but the finishing from their players was still felt to be lacking.

The additional 3 points make Bologna more comfortable sitting in 4th position in the standings, but the difference from Fiorentina is only 1 point, which makes their position in the range of being shifted if they get a draw or defeat in the next match. But as long as they can solidify a win like this, Bologna will be able to stay in their current position for longer.

Exactly my man, One would think that the game would've swinged that way ( A full time draw ) but Bologna kept them cool and defended like they should to win all three points at home in the presence and support of the home fans who gave them unwavering support until the end of the game.

Nigerian International Ademola Lookman was the major force in that game for Atalanta as he was dangerously causing problems for the defense of bologna. They should bjave scored more than three goals if they had converted the chances they had.
Thiago Motta has really been doing a lot, they be sitting at the first four clubs in the first half. They could qualify for the first four clubs if they get to double up them performance.

Ademola Lookman is indeed a key player for Atalanta and if you look at his contribution this season he has scored 6 goals and 3 assists for Atalanta. It's just that every opportunity failed in this match and he failed to provide better hopes for Atalanta. I think Atalanta is also confused when facing an equally strong team and they seem to have difficulty breaking down their opponent's defense.

In the end, Atalanta only sat back in 8th after this defeat and failed to shift Roma's position in the standings. However, their position is a little threatened because Lazio and Torino are starting to overshadow them with a difference of only 2 points. In the next match against Lecce, I hope Atalanta can win again and I will bet on Atalanta winning in this match later.
