Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

I will actually not say that he has failed Roma. Because in my opinion, he is doing quite well. Of course, he is not doing incredible. But Roma is currently in the sixth position of the table. I will actually call that respectable. Even though they have not been able to be very consistent, I think they have the capability of improving. The problem is this season the competition is very big. A lot of teams are performing very well and better compared to the last season. So that might end up being a problem for Roma.

Roma is not a big team like Mourinho has coached before, Limited finances make it difficult for Mourinho to build a squad containing top star players. When he was still at Chelsea he was able to put together a team with complete players who had almost the same quality, whereas at Roma he had to rack his brains so he could continue to achieve maximum results with the players he currently has.
Mourinho effect on Roma began to be felt, Roma began to rise even though their performances were not always consistent. Mourinho's experience can make Roma grow, but he needs time to make it happen. Competition in Serie A is increasingly competitive, making Roma journey a bit hampered in getting into the top four.

Juventus 19:45 Roma

If juventus will not end beating Roma the Serie A will be already over.

Even though Allegri is no longer encouraging Juventus to play aggressively this season. But so far Allegri's strategy has always been effective. Even when this team was filled with a list of injured players plus player bans and suspensions. It turns out that Allegri can always get through these difficult times.

Now the injured players have started to return, but the suspended players will of course still make it through this season. And some players who have accumulated too many yellow cards may not be given long playing time because it is too risky. So up to now it can be said that Allegri has had to fight with a very limited squad.

But I believe at the Allianz Stadium Juventus will win. Although Rome looks to be improving. But I'm not sure they will be able to make the home team lose. Because I still remember Roma's defeat by Bologna when Roma visited Bologna's headquarters. So betting on Juventus is my choice.

If Juventus fails to win against Roma, it will indeed be difficult for Juve to catch Inter. because now the point difference is 4 points. and Inter will get points from the match against Genoa.
I hope Juventus can narrow the points gap with Inter. because that will make Serie A interesting until the end of the season. otherwise, Inter will dominate from now until the end of the season. because there is no other team that can catch Inter apart from the opportunity that Juventus has.

As a manager that's got a very rich experience in the UEFA champions league having won the competition in two different editions, one of the prime expectations of AS Roma management when they signed Jose Mourinho to the club was that the Portuguese manager would help return the club to Europe's biggest club competition but unfortunately for the club and the manager, they've failed to qualify for the UEFA champions league. They would've qualified to play in the the competition this season if they had defeated Seville in the in the final of the UEFA Europa League last season but unfortunately failed as they were beaten by the Spanish club in the final.

I think he still has a chance of achieving the aim of playing in the UEFA champions league next season with the club by making sure they finish in the top four of the league table at the end of the season.

Mourinho is not only known as a coach full of experience but he can bring change to the team he coaches. I'm sure he will be able to bring Roma back to participate in the Champions League next season. Last season was very disappointing after Roma lost the final match against Sevilla and indeed in that match the referee was quite on the side of Sevilla which made Mourinho very upset with the final result of the match.

This season there are still many matches left so Mourinho still has many opportunities to bring Roma to victory in every match. Many Roma players this season have suffered injuries which have hindered their performance so far, I even see that Dybala has suffered another injury which will have a bad impact on them.

Because of this experience, Roma appointed Jose Mourinho to coach the club which at that time was experiencing difficulties and in the end Jose Mourinho did not fail in coaching the club he brought, indeed Roma was not able to compete in the Champions League but his ability in the European league to enter the final round was a great achievement. good for Roma because it is not easy for any club that does not have star players but is able to achieve good results in the Europa League and is grateful that this season Roma still has a chance in the playoffs rather than not at all and it looks like Roma can achieve good results like last season achieved Although the semifinal or final round is not easy because Liverpool and Leverkusen are Roma's tough rivals in the European League.

There's still a long way to go, while currently Roma is ranked 6th, meaning Roma still has the opportunity to compete in the Champions League next season by fighting for the top 4 positions, I'm pretty sure Jose Mourinho can do it, after all, the difference in points with 4th place is not too far. So Roma is not under too much pressure to catch up.

If juventus will not end beating Roma the Serie A will be already over.

Of the several matches that I think are worth watching, only the Juventus vs AS Roma match is the only one, because both clubs are giants of the Serie A League, where both clubs want to win in this prestigious match, it is very interesting to place a bet.  This match was a draw, but seeing the condition of Juventus who continue to want to catch up with Inter Milan, it seems that they have prepared several of their young players such as Weah and Kenan Yildiz to start against AS Roma this week.  The chances of Chiesa and Locatelli appearing on Sunday morning are very big, but Chiesas and Locatelli are very doubtful to start the match against AS Roma.

So true. This match is really very important for Juventus if they want to maintain the point difference with Inter Milan in the race for the title this season. And it would indeed be very boring if in the end Juventus failed to get full points in this match. Just like last season when Napoli confirmed themselves as champions last season and even from the middle of the season. Because the point difference didn't make sense at that time. And yes, if Juventus lose points and Inter get full points against Genoa then of course Serie A will be a little unpleasant.

But fortunately Genoa is not a weak team when they play as hosts. Genoa has beaten Roma this season and held Napoli to a draw when Genoa played as hosts. Juventus also managed to hold on to a draw when they visited Genoa headquarters. So it is not impossible that Inter Milan will only share points in the match against Genoa. And if that happens then the excitement in Serie A will still continue. But I hope Juventus and Inter Milan win this week. Because I would bet on both.

There are still quite a lot of games remaining in this season and I think at the moment anything is still possible and every team just needs to maintain their consistency.
Against Roma will certainly be very difficult for Juventus, but Juventus will be playing at home and their performance has been quite consistent since the start of the season, making their percentage of winning this match much greater.

Inter Milan has two attackers who are quite productive this season, even Thuram, who they brought in in the last summer transfer window, has also managed to adapt well with Martinez on Inter Milan's front line. I think Inter Milan will succeed in winning the Scudetto this season because they are really strong this season and also have a front line that is quite dangerous for the opposing team.

Inter is also my favorite team in the Italian Serie A. They were a great team last season but this season they have become a better team. They are my favorite not only in the Italian Serie A but also in the Champions League because Real Madrid and Manchester City are going backwards in football this season while Inter are going forward. They haven't conceded a goal in the league in the last 4 weeks. I think they will beat Genoa tomorrow and consolidate their lead in the league. They are like a machine, I don't think they will make any mistakes this season.

Inter Milan is another team who is doing great at the moment,they are very good at scoring,and to me,the league is almost over,I can crown them champions already because of their consistency.They are another team to look out for in the champions league this season,they finished runners up last season,and are despirately aiming to lift that trophy this time around.People do not see them as threat,but their level of play,and how defensive they are is really making me feel they are up to something great this season,and might just take this their form to champions league.If they can produce exactly what they produce in the Seria A,then I can tip them to be in the final of the champions league again.

Beating Genoa doesn't appear like a challenge to inter Milan after seeing all their most recent performance both in the UCL and the serie A, Genoa is an average team who of course in no way matches Inter Milan in strength except as usual they will go all defensive to prevent Inter Milan from winning or probably reducing the number of goals they may conceed.

Real Madrid isn't doing so bad yet and Manchester city is experiencing a down time which is in most cases common amongst big football team because they definitely can't stay 100% efficient all through the season so underestimating them is something I don't think we should be doing at this point. Inter Milan is doing so well and have a very good chance of getting pas the round of sixteen but my fears is that I doubt if they will be suited for the champions league title because we have the likes of Bayern Munich this not too experienced in the champions league, and Real Madrid with Manchester city who if they get pass the round of sixteen then be sure that the finals isn't far from them.

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

technically both Roma and Juventus play a very defensive scheme, the differences in the two teams are the players and Juventus has technically stronger players. it won't be an easy match for both and we are unlikely to see many goals. the different ambitions of the two teams will give rise to a great challenge

Roma has the ability to defend and Juventus is much stronger in defense and attack and technically this is what makes Juventus probably quite the favorite to come out on top. But for Jose Mourinho, this match will feel quite important because they are fighting to climb into the top five of the standings and a win or draw against Juventus will add great motivation to them.

AS Roma is three points behind Bologna who is ranked fourth and two points behind Fiorentina. So a win or draw against Juventus will create an opportunity for AS Roma to catch up on the points left behind by the two teams.

In Serie A, perhaps Inter Milan cannot be stopped by any team at the moment. Even in the match against Genoa, maybe Simone Inzaghi will make a little player rotation to give the main players a little rest. But at UCL maybe we still can't predict everything. Because Real Madrid is currently starting to improve again. Even though one of their best strikers is currently absent due to injury. But they proved that they are still a strong team. So at UCL there will definitely be many surprises waiting for you. There could even be a surprise coming from a team that we don't currently excel at. Inter Milan last season also did it. Well, they weren't the favorite team last season. But they made it to the Finals. And we don't know if Inter Milan will do the same. Or maybe another team will give you a surprise.

Roma are a good side. Their manager Mourinho has some kind of special ability to raise up a team into a pretty much successful squad. Even with the loopholes they're faced with, he's still been able to help the team stand out in some games. Injury has definitely been a number one deprivation of a team's performance but the manager has been able to make do with the players and squad he's got available and even though not perfect as expected, they're not relenting in their efforts.

 The European competition would definitely favour them, they only need to strive to win a ticket. Good thing also that their striker is at his peak performance and he's always capable of delivering the team to victory in dire moments. I'd admit that the team and manager are very much compatible maybe it's the resonance that's natural or maybe Mourinho's great coaching ability at work but at the moment, the situation in the team is in safe hands and patiently and gently, they'd stride to the spots they want to be.

It seems like there is no reason for Simone Inzaghi to play more calmly against Genoa by fielding more of their second tier players because their position at the top of the standings is not yet secure, only 4 points ahead of Juventus who look very ready for this season to become champions after last season going through difficult times.
I am quite sure that Inzaghi will continue to field his best players in the match against Genoa and will make changes when he has secured 3 points when he has a big lead in the next match, especially in many meetings Genoa always finds it difficult to get points so that Inter Milan will continue to play with full strength and ensure 3 points after that, there was a change, and because the match in the Champions League is still quite far from the schedule, it shouldn't be a problem for Inter Milan because their players will still be able to get rest before facing difficult matches in the European tournament.

yes ok but if both defend, neither wins
It doesn't seem like a good deal to me, especially for Juventus, who lose 2 points behind Inter
if she wants to stay attached to him she must take risks and try to win, not go on defense
I disapprove of this strategy, just defense

The game is up and I expect bothsides to fight with their very last strength, we know how important this three points is for Juventus and AS Roma. We should make emphasis on this fixture based on their current form and the last meeting records. AS Roma won Juventus 1-0 at home, however we're able to understand that Juventus have become one of the fierce club that doesn't stand strong previous season, they did suffered from the hands of bans and restrictions, points deduction and critical injuries sustained by their main players. The coach, Massimiliano Allegri was able to form and hold tight of his position and he did solve quite numerous troubles.

In terms of goal productivity, AS Roma are actually superior because they have recorded 30 goals, while Juventus have only created 26 goals. But the highlight for me is that Juventus are much better when they defend, whereas AS Roma are not. That will create an opening for AS Roma, because after all Juventus must have studied the point where their weaknesses are.  AS Roma's defense is easily penetrated by the opponent's attack line, especially if the opponent they face has a very effective attacking strategy, they will be very overwhelmed to stop it.
The pressure they will receive will also be much greater because they have to play in front of Juventus supporters, it will make their mentality a little disturbed.

Both Juventus and AS Roma have got good defensive lines and so it's obvious the goals in this game may not turn out much because both team will pose an unpenetrated defense line and who so ever manages to break the defense line may be getting just a few goals so who every wins may be with a close margin.

The advantage Roma have got may lay in their coach even if so far he has been as excellent as he use to be but then he was known to all have the ability to come up with good tactics that helps his team through games like this that appears really tasking, although he doesn't come out Victorious always but then he usually make sure to have a good play and an edge over the opposition. Juventus with their performance so far has made them appear to be the favourite because it's more likely they will win but I have some kind of doubts because there's a weakness that lays within their midfield as their strength is just in their defense and attack line. This is an opportunity for Roam to get to the top five so I don't expect them to make it any easy for Juventus.

Juventus is not a typical defensive team and they are much more attacking than Roma. We all know that this is an important opportunity for Juventus to immediately overtake Inter from the top of the standings and they don't have time to provide more defense than attack. Allegri knows what his team has to do in the next match and they will aim for full points rather than just one point against Roma.

I'm sure Juventus can do it, especially if Roma concedes first then that could be a strong signal that Juventus will win and will even score another goal. Roma will not be able to withstand Juventus' attacks even though they are known for their strong defense and it seems the results are already visible with the readiness of each of these teams.

Simone Inzaghi must be able to use his best strategy and line-up to beat Genoa and this victory will be very important for Inter Milan so they can increase the point difference from Juventus.
We all know that Juventus is team that is developing rapidly and is even able to dominate every match and only suffered one defeat.
Moreover, if Inter Milan can play well and beat Genoa then they will remain at the top so they can buy more time if Juventus equals or surpasses Inter Milan points tally in the future.
But on the other hand, Simone Inzaghi also has to be careful and not be careless in order to maintain all his players to maintain stable quality. Inter still has to focus on the UCL and also maintain its position in the Serie A standings.

On the other hand, Juventus will experience little pressure because they have to play against Roma, which of course could provide an unexpected surprise which could make it difficult for Juventus to win and get the full 3 points.
But this is profitable match for Juventus because the home game is theirs and allows them to increase their chances of winning.
I want to see Juventus become champions or at least runners-up and be able to watch Juventus play in the UCL competition next season.
Juventus has very good opportunity and is right in front of them, they just need to maintain it until the season ends.

But indeed, I also agree about Juventus and AS Roma have a style of play that prioritizes defense, so it is very possible that this match will also end in a goalless draw like 0-0. But maybe, if one of them manages to win but still, the final score will not be big and maybe they will only get a low final score such as 1-0 or at least only win with a difference of one goal.

Because after all, considering they have a good defense then ya, if one of them manages to score a goal first then the team will only focus on defending. At least I'm pretty sure a scenario like this is likely to happen, considering they don't have the high productivity to win with a big score.
