Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Doell]

Milan last 4 matches is magnificent, they are showing good form but they didn't start well and apparently, they conceded a lot of goals and that'd why they were able to loss 4 matches and Inter and Juventus loss only 1 one games do far, this is how they were able to stay on top of the tree. The only way Milan can meet up right now is if they don't lose any match from here and perhaps Inter and Milan lose like 3 matches in a row then they will come close and the margin in their points will be settled but the season is just half way, we have another long days to see how the season unfold.

I'm concerned about Napoli growth, the beginning was bad but towards half way they became the face of Seria only to start losing match in the half of the season. They are doing bad to be honest and for a team that came first  in Seria A after many years to be sitting way below Roma says how bad the team has become. Walter Mazzari need new men and strategies as a new coach to take them back else they lose the chance of going the Champions League next season.

Milan performance in their last 4 Serie A matches was showing good form? they lost against Atalanta and failed to get three points vs Salernitana. I think Milan must be able to improve again to show an impressive performance, because the second half of this season is still a lot of game and if Milan can't get many points, I'm afraid Fiorentina can take over Milan position.

Indeed, I'm also concerned. Because recently Napoli performance has been really bad, in their last five Serie A matches Napoli could only secure 4 points. Mazzarri job is not easy there, he has to find the right tactics for the Napoli squad. Recruiting new players to make his job easier might be very appropriate, fortunately the winter transfer window will opened tomorrow and Napoli must buy some players which are Mazzarri needed.

Inter current position in the Italian league competition table and champions league competition show that they are well prepared to try their luck in the two tournament but it will definitely win one of this title. If Inter players can come together to battle with their opponents to take charge of those positions show that they will not allow injury to hold any of their players than to apply tactics in their remaining matches. I think, Inter will be the favourable team in this season  to embrace the title if they can improve in their remaining matches so that what happened last match will not happen again.

Hopefully they would do all they can to avoid much injuries, the absence of Martinez has also it's minor effects on the club since he is the main man leading the charts for the highest goals scored fir now. They're to still play at home when they come back. The first half should be tough but not too much to see them draw.
They're favorites even though they have just dropped them some points in the standing.

Juventus are chasing tightly, two points behind league leaders and they still have more game's to play. They should make sure they sign some players, the players within are good but not so good to win.

In Italian League Yesterday Juventus vs Roma in the match of two teams, Juventus team performed well. The players of both teams played very well in the first half of the game. But in the 47th minute, Juventus team player A. Rabiot scored 1 goal. Roma team player did not score in this match.  Roma team had to lose in this match to qualify. However, the performance of the Roma team players was very bad. If Roma team scored 1 goal, the match could have been drawn, but Juventus won the match because they could not score any goals.

That's right, AC Milan may currently making 3rd place as their target this season, even though Milan has the potential to become champion, but with the point difference with Inter & Juventus it seems difficult to overcome. This possibility does exist, but Milan's inconsistent performance could making AC Milan cannot stay in 3rd place or be able to compete for the Scudetto. The most important thing is how Pioli maximizes all the matches he will face in the second half of the season. 3rd position will be the best position for Milan. IMO.

This season is too difficult for Milan to fight for the title because Juventus and Inter are really in their best form. The points gap that Milan has with the top of the standings is too high, even if Inter lose a few points then it will not have much of an impact on their chances. Juventus and Inter are two potential title contenders this season once the first half of the season is over, but we never know for sure what each team will experience so Milan can still very likely expect to be able to provide the best competition.

A realistic target for Milan is to qualify for the Champions League next season, but they still deserve to fight for the title by improving their performance in the second half of this season. I doubt it, but Milan still has a chance to do it.

AC Milan will probably just struggle to keep themselves in the top 4 and compete with Fiorentina and Bologna for a while. Meanwhile, Roma and Napoli will still be busy getting closer to the top 4 rankings.

The most important thing is how Pioli maximizes all the matches he will face in the second half of the season. 3rd position will be the best position for Milan. IMO.

Currently, it is still possible to reduce the point difference, but Milan must be able to appear more consistent from the first half of the season. Because expecting Inter and Juventus to slip up is not a good idea, Pioli must be able to guide his squad to achieve its targets this season, at least they must be able to maintain their position in the top four of the standings when the season ends.

On the other hand, for now Milan is only fully focused on domestic competitions, I think this free time should be utilized well. Because in the future there will be even more challenges to face, when the European League competition starts again. Pioli now has a complete squad, the crisis he is currently facing is only in the center back sector. The best solution is to look for new players, or Pioli should experiment by utilizing existing players.

[Warkop]

Against Salernitana it shouldn't be a difficult opponent for Juventus. The most important thing is that Juventus must not underestimate their opponents. They must always treat every match as an important match like against other strong teams. Because most strong teams always lose to weak teams because they underestimate their opponents.

Salernitana will meet Juventus in two events at once, the Italian league and the Italian Cup in the next few days, I know Salernitana is at the bottom of the Italian league so it is not a club that poses a serious threat to Juventus, but with a short time gap between the two matches, Allegri has to organize and rotate the players so they don't feel tired due to this busy schedule. At least the Juventus players are in good form.

Victory is of course Juventus' main goal, especially in the Italian league, they have to catch up with Inter Milan, that's why they have to be able to take advantage and wait for Inter Milan to make another mistake so that Juventus can overtake them at the top of the standings and win the title this season. that's what all Juventus supporters might hope for. My prediction is that Juventus will win the match against Salernitana

On paper, Salernitana are not a big threat to Juventus, they are at the bottom of the table right now. Although they can win their last match, it is nothing compared to Juventus. Juventus should be able to win this match without encountering serious difficulties, unless they don't play well or they have a big misfortune that will make them possibly achieve an unsatisfactory result.
 They have managed to cut the gap with Inter Milan in the standings and that is good news for them, so they should be able to maintain what they have shown so far.
Their chances of becoming the best in Serie A again are wide open this season, especially since they also have the advantage of not having a busy schedule, and in terms of fitness they will definitely benefit. 2 points is their gap with Inter Milan in the table, I feel they will be able to coup Inter Milan in the future.

Juventus were able to beat Roma without difficulties, although they scored only one goal. I think that Salernitana will not create any problems for Juventus to win again. I don't know what has to happen for Salernitana to prevent Juventus from getting the three points.

This season is indeed the best season for Juventus, because Juventus' performance looks very good in their matches. That's right, Salernitana is not a big obstacle for Juventus to get 3 points and win this match, of course Juventus will continue to compete with Inter to win first place in the standings and the Serie A title this season. However, Juventus must remain alert and never underestimate Salernitana's attacks, because this match is being held at Salernitana's home ground. Of course they will try hard to put up a good fight to win this match.

[Swordsoffreedom]

Inter Milan are looking to do well in the Champions League and Serie A as well. And in these two competitive leagues, it is difficult to maintain consistent good performances. Inter Milan have a very busy schedule ahead. And this will increase the injury proneness of the players. If an important player of the team suffers an injury, its impact will definitely be seen in the overall performance of the team. On the other hand, Inter Milan's main rivals for the Serie A title, Juventus, are aiming for the Serie A title. They are not playing in Champions League or Europa League. So it will be relatively easy for Juventus to maintain the consistency of performance. Before each match they will have enough time to strategize.

Juventus has got the time advantage over Inter Milan but currently inter Milan has a few time before the UCL round of sixteen kicks off so just before then they can be able to accumulate some good points so as to keep them ahead even if the have some slacks later on, I think they have a fixture in the serie A before their UCL fixture, a win in that game will keep them 3 points ahead.

Inter Milan will have to cease every opportunity .Ade available to them if they must be able to maintain a good form in the serie A and the UCL if not they are obviously going to loose out in one, somehow I tend not to see great potential for inter Milan at The UCL , tho they have some level of experience but then it will only make sense if they can go beyond the quarter finals, until then they should consider the serie A seriously els they will be displaced by Juventus and may not be able to recover from it. Balancing their performance in both competition is something they will have to work on and it can only be possible if they stay ahead in the serie A and apply some rotation thereafter.

Yes, it is going to be very tough for Inter Milan to keep up. I mean the schedule is already very busy. Players are getting frequently injured due to these schedules. And then they have to play in a very competitive Champions League in February. But for now, they have the same pressure as Juventus, so I believe they should increase the gap as much as possible. Inter Milan lost to Genoa yesterday which lessened the point gap between them to 2 points. Juventus on the other hand had beaten a strong Roma. Juventus is catching up right now.

February is going to be very busy for Inter Milan. They have the UCL playoff match against Atletico Madrid and on the first of February, they will have to play against Juventus. They need to make sure they win these 2 matches. If Juventus wins that match that will give them a lead against Inter Milan which Inter Milan cannot afford to do.

Inter Milan have a more busy schedule than Juventus and it is their disadvantage than Juventus in a new year when Champions League returns with round of 16 matches. Juventus will not spend their energy for matches in Champions League like Inter Milan and they can save energy and player resource for Serie A matches. It will help Juventus potentially can gain more points than Inter Milan in Serie A in matches before and after Champions League matches. This difference will become bigger if Inter Milan beat Atletico Madrid in round of 16 and go farther in Champions League.

February is going to be very busy for Inter Milan. They have the UCL playoff match against Atletico Madrid and on the first of February, they will have to play against Juventus. They need to make sure they win these 2 matches. If Juventus wins that match that will give them a lead against Inter Milan which Inter Milan cannot afford to do.

First they will have to play more matches than Juventus. Second they will have less time for players to rest and prepare for matches in Serie A. Thirdly they potentially can get injuries from Champions League matches.

[rendravolt]

Even though they are still slumped in the temporary relegation zone, Salernitana finally got the victory they wanted and they did it when they played away to Verona. This narrow victory allowed Salernitana to steal 3 points and could be an important asset for them to immediately escape the relegation zone. It is not easy for Salernitana to get through this season safely because they continue to lose in the last 4 matches without winning. Now they only have a difference of around 2 points from Verona to get away from the relegation zone and they must be able to do it in the next match.

But if we talk about their chances of winning in the next match, it will certainly be impossible because their opponents are Juventus and it is certain that Salernitana will still be held back and lose again.

For Salernitana to be able to exit the relegation zone, it will mean they will have to win two consecutive matches while sassuolo along side Verona will aswell loose two games too because if they don't loose their games and Salernitana happens to win theirs, they will only move from the bottom to 18th position which still keeps them at relegation.

 Salernitana should basically fight to get out of relegation even though I know it's really going to be a pretty hard task because they will need so much to get pass there and the season has already gone pass half already, they have not Ben in a good form at any point this session o been relegated isn't actually real surprising, they have won only a single game their season. Considering playing against Juventus except they are able to get a draw it's definitely going to further get them all stocked in the relegation because Juventus wants to get back to the top of the standing and this is their chance and I'm sure they aren't giving it up for anything.

That win against Verona might have been the most crucial of the whole season for Salernitana. If they didn't win that game, it would have been like a hard punch in their face. But what's more promising than just the result is how that result was achieved during the game and it was a game away from home. Salernitana was equally strong and they weren't impressed by the disadvantage to play away from home.

This keeps them connected to the teams ahead of them, which is crucially important for the games to come. But on the negative side they are now facing two very strong opponents, Juventus Turin and Napoli. It could have given them some momentum if they now met another team that is in or close to the relegation zone. But now they have to deal with some big teams first.

Both teams are weak teams so it wouldn't be too surprising if one of them won, Salernitana has more motivation because they want to stay away from relegation therefore playing against a team like Verona is an important moment because there they have the potential to get points the situation would be different if it was against a strong team and they would lose points. Unfortunately, in the next 2 matches, Salernitana will have to play against 2 other strong teams such as Juventus and Napoli of course Salernitana chances of getting points are very low.

[bering]

This weekend Fiorentina will fight for away match against Sassuolo and they have a potention to collect 3 points from this match considering Sassuolo only get 1 win from 12 matches in Serie A moreover Fiorentina condition is more good because Fiorentina has just through an 7 matches in Serie A with only get 1 loses but Fiorentina shouldn't be underestimate Sassuolo although this team still struggle to gets the winning results but sometimes Sassuolo can able to performing well and beat their opponent so Fiorentina have to be carefull to Sassuolo

Fiorentina still unable to playing Nicolas Gonzalez but they still have Giacomo Bonaventura which is this player was fully recover and maybe he can be played since early match and i was interesting to Fiorentina recent matches records because they were successfully to improved their defensive lines and from 5 recent matches in Serie A Fiorentina only conceded 1 goal however about the outcomes of this match because all of Fiorentina key players will be available this Sunday so my prediction is they will going to win this match and the odds for Fiorentina looks good to bet @2.22

I wasn't talking about a surprise and it wasn't exactly a surprise at all. But given that this was only the second win of the entire season for Salernitana, I think it wasn't quite what most people would have chosen as a potential outcome since it was a game away from home. But this win changes the dynamic at the bottom of the table quite a bit. That is what I said. It now raised the tension for all teams that are involved in the fight against the relegation zone. And those who are supporting Salernitana, for them it was actually quite good news to say the least.

AC Milan will probably just struggle to keep themselves in the top 4 and compete with Fiorentina and Bologna for a while. Meanwhile, Roma and Napoli will still be busy getting closer to the top 4 rankings.

That's right, AC Milan may currently making 3rd place as their target this season, even though Milan has the potential to become champion, but with the point difference with Inter & Juventus it seems difficult to overcome. This possibility does exist, but Milan's inconsistent performance could making AC Milan cannot stay in 3rd place or be able to compete for the Scudetto. The most important thing is how Pioli maximizes all the matches he will face in the second half of the season. 3rd position will be the best position for Milan. IMO.

That's a pragmatic assessment of AC Milan who emphasizes the importance of realistic goals, considering the point difference with Inter and Juventus. Setting achievable goals based on the team's performance and the competition's dynamics is essential for maintaining motivation and focus. This is meaningful to reduce pressure on the team. Milan can aim for a position that reflects their performance and challenges them to secure a spot in the Champions League by targeting the 3rd position.

Inconsistency in results can make it challenging to sustain a title challenge. Milan need to focus on maximizing performance in the second half of the season with a strategic approach. Aiming for 3rd place allows the team to concentrate on each match. while the are addressing the issues contributing to inconsistency, they can gradually climb the league ladder. This targeted approach ensures that the team stays competitive without succumbing to undue pressure associated with a direct title challenge.

Oh Shiit!

I just discovered that the defending Champions of Seria A ( Scudetto Competition ) are currently eighth position currently on the league standing. This is as a result of the poor Rudi Garcia who dragged this particular down to the mud.
I don't know too well about them head to head but this could still be a tough game. Victor Oshime would most likely not be involved as he'll be in camp with his National Team mates.

The African Cup of Nations Competitions begins soon and I don't think they want to risk him. He should be freed and allowed to go. The African Cup of Nations Competitions would be very important for Nigerians, they'll need their start man around.

Let's narrow it down to five games away from home, they've just won twice amd lost three, ain't that a poor show? They'll find the game difficult to win.

Osimhen's absence means a lot to Napoli indeed.    I totally forgot about the AFCON. Osimhen is also going there which means Napoli attacking line will be much weaker than now. Napoli have already been experiencing big difficulties in maintaining a good form. They couldn't beat Monza for example in which Osimhen didn't play as he wasn't in the squad.

A really tough time period is waiting for Napoli in short. Their defensive side is already weak and they will have more difficulty in making up for that by scoring more goals while Osimhen isn't in the squad for a while.

Even though they won narrowly at home to Verona, now Salernitana still has to sit at the bottom of the standings because the points are still not enough to beat Verona, which is currently outside the relegation zone. And for the next match, the two teams are also very likely to lose because they have to face very strong teams in Serie A this season, namely Verona with Inter Milan and Salernitana with Juventus. So both of them are quite likely not to get points in their follow-up match this weekend.

[Raflesia]

Currently Juventus will only compete in the Italian Cup which is sometimes not too interested in big clubs and Serie A which of course this will slightly save their strength when compared to some other big clubs who are still in the Champions League and Europa League competitions.
It's just that even though it's like that and they continue to win but honestly I still see something lacking for them, especially in attack.

Currently their attack and goal productivity is a little disturbed and it is evident when they still have difficulty scoring goals in a match. Problems like this must be resolved by Juventus because if they are really serious about the Scudetto then they must be even better, especially for their current attack line.

It is quite accurate as you said, where juventus attack line is not very impressive this season because if we look at the many match that juventus have played where they often end the match with a narrow win, namely 1-0. Of course, if you look in depth, it is clear that their attackers are not very fertile when it comes to scoring goal, there is a slight decline in the quality of juventus strikers like vlahovic. Apart from that, I think Allegri must look for a new striker to be able to support their performance in the upcoming match.

Of course Juventus have a lot of free time this season which can have a good impact on them continuing to focus on Serie A. And also the players can avoid injuries because they don't have a tight schedule this season. Well, with Juventus good performance so far, There is a possibility that they have prepared greater preparations for the winter transfer window. Maybe in terms of defense, It is quite strong, they just need a few changes to their front line.

Finding a new striker is a little complicated for Juventus because after all they have to try to eliminate several players if they really want to bring in players especially if the goal is a player who has above average quality.
The current situation for Juventus they will still have difficulties because their finances are still not very good so looking for a new striker can be done if they sell players as a sacrifice.

Currently, the interest of several big clubs in Dusan is still very much only Juventus are still reluctant to release this player. Dusan himself until now did not have good momentum and his game seemed ordinary at Juventus in contrast to the performance he showed at Fiorentina so this could be an option if in the end they want to find a new striker then donating Dusan still makes sense even though this is also full of risks.
The advantage is only because their focus in the competition is not divided but sometimes it can be useless if in the end they cannot maximize the opportunities they have this season just because their productivity is poor and the strikers cannot provide answers as is the case now even though they always get 3 points.

But I am sure that this is not how the players and everyone else at Salernitana is looking at things right now. They know that this was a huge step into the best direction they could take. How vital these three points were to their survival in the Serie A can hardly be put into words. If they lost that game Verona would have had the chance to significantly increase the gap and that would have meant one more team is miles away from Salernitana. Now things look much better for them and it is doable, it is now thinkable to stay in Serie A.

Yes, Salernitana are still at the bottom of the standings, but with these 3 points they are now only 2 points away from relegation meaning it only needs one more win to do it and they will be at the first safe point. I monitored Salernitana in the last 2 matches and that is an extraordinary achievement draw against Milan and win against Verona, Salernitana will have to repeat this in the next few matches only in this way can they be safe from degradation. Do you believe Salernitana will stay in the Italian League next season?
