Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

Juventus will also beat Salerentina easily. But this is Copa Italia and weak teams beat strong teams here frequently. So anything might happen.

Salernitana may not be a team that is equal to Juventus. However, a few weeks ago, Salernitana was able to hold AC Milan to a draw which was experiencing inconsistency. Even though this could be considered a coincidence, at least this could be a sign for Juventus to remain careful from attacks by Salernitana players. However, Salernitana chances of winning the match, remain very low.

Salernitana still has a chances to get out of the relegation zone if this team is able to appear more impressive in the matches they will face, but the problems is that at the beginning of 2024, precisely entering the half the season, Salernitana will face quite tough teams, the first being Juventus, the seconds being Napoli, so this is a possibility Salernitana will lose 6 point in this match and if the rivals aboved it are able to win their respective match then they will be even further behind and it will be difficult for them to get out of the relegation zone while their position is now at the bottom so Salernitana must prepared themselves if they end up being relegated🥺

Salernitanas win against Verona birthed their hope of possibly exiting the relegation zone on the table, the three point boost they got winning that match further closed the margin with which they are behind other team who happens to be with them at the relegation on the table, another three points and they will be far above the relegation with 15 points.

Their next fixture been against Juventus isn't an opportunity for them at all to be able to have a second winnin a roll which will help them get out of the relegation at the moment as Juventus is rather seeing them as an opportunity for them to get to the top of the table a d further get keep hopes alive for winning the league title by the end of the season, Juventus is a better informed team than salernitana and they are at the second position with two points difference away from inter Milan who is at the top of the table, inter Milan and Juventus are fighting to stay at the top of the table to be able to have an opportunity to win the league title this season.

dont sell the bear skin before killing it, Napoli is not dead, not yet

Regarding Juventus, now that they are -2 behind Inter everyone is very excited and with very high morale, while the psychological pressure on the Inter players begins. I expect Juventus to become even stronger!

This season is special, only those clubs that have bright future will reach significant phase. I'm excited to watch my favorite club in Italy doing the best momentum and also having important phase to pass. Every club is stronger, we don't underrate any club here because there's no room to underestimate them prior to their current and previous performance. Juventus and Inter Milan, one of these teams will be going home with the scudetto, I'm keen on watching Juventus taking the lead. The overhyped Napoli is underrated this season, they have no solid performance this season.

Cagliari is 18th in the table, at this moment they would be relegated to Serie B
He has 14 points, and has therefore lost many games, there is a reason. Furthermore, the company has problems and therefore I give it to Serie B with a 90% certainty.

If they get 3 points, they can get out of the relegation pot, but this is not easy for Cagliari. We saw in the cup match against AC Milan that they could not get into many positions. Their defensive areas are problematic and their chances of winning against big teams are slim. They must find a way to win against the teams they will be playing in the mid-table. Otherwise, I think it is certain that they will be relegated to Serie B.

Cagliari is looking terrible at the moment. I can understand why people may think that they are going to go down, it is looking like they are having one of their worst season in recent years, and they just can't seem to be getting into position at all. From defense to midfield to offense, all the parts of the team looks like they are in disorganized situation and not really playing like a single unit, and that makes them look a lot worse.

I understand that we may consider this situation a bit different, but that doesn't mean that we are going to be right, we just need to make sure that we are betting on them to lose, and that will get us a lot of money. Most people think betting on the best teams is great, but betting on Cagliari to lose means you could get some good odds as well. I did that a few times already and made some good return as well, I believe that they will mostly lose until the end of the season and that's why betting like that is good.

However, Salernitana chances of winning the match, remain very low.

On paper there is no doubt in saying that Juventus can beat Salernitana, because Allegri squad is not busy with European competitions this season, it is clear they want to win every domestic competition they participate in. Looking at Juventus previous statistical records, I predict Salernitana can't do much in this match, they need a miracle to beat the Bianconeri.

Considering that the match will be held at Juventus venue, this of course adds to Allegri squad motivation to advance to the quarter finals. There isn't much that can be said about Filippo Inzaghi current squad, their chances of winning are very low as is their current position in the Serie A standings.

I think Juventus is one of the favorite teams in the Coppa Italia, as well as in Serie A. Allegri is able to make the club appear consistent, even though the challenges he faces are very different from other teams, I mean like in the case of Pogba and Fagioli.

He has 14 points, and has therefore lost many games, there is a reason. Furthermore, the company has problems and therefore I give it to Serie B with a 90% certainty.

It's not surprising that when talking about Cagliari this season, the inconsistency in the last few weeks has made Cagliari's decline in Serie A worse, of course their threat is to be kicked out of Serie B. From 18 matches they have experienced 10 defeats, 3 wins and 5 draws, certainly a bad achievement. For this season, the Cagliari squad still has the opportunity to get up and get away from the relegation zone, at least being more consistent in finding points in every match.

Cagliari is only a promoted team and if for example Cagliari is relegated at the end of the season then ya, I think it is still a reasonable result. But ya, even though Cagliari is only a promotion team and is in the relegation zone at this moment, but I think the results that Cagliari have gotten so far this season are not bad at all. Because after all, the fact is that Cagliari still has a great chance to get out of the relegation zone.

Considering Cagliari current points tally is 14 points and the same as Verona who are currently in 17th position. Also, Salernitana who are at the bottom of the table who only have 12 points this moment, but the reality is that Salernitana also still have a chance to get out of the relegation zone. So ya, with their points gap like this, I think the teams that are in the relegation zone at this moment certainly still have a chance to get out of the red zone, because they still have a close points gap that of course they will still be able to compete.

Talking about clubs that are in the relegation zone, everyone still has a chance to get out of the relegation zone because the point difference very close, even Sassuolo, which outside the relegation zone, also has a chance to be shifted again and I wouldn't be surprised if a club like Cagliari, which a worthy promotion club get praise because club that are below the relegation zone sometimes provide surprises for big clubs to draw or even beat big clubs and one side of January the transfer market will open again and the chance of clubs being in the relegation zone can improve the quality of players and I'm sure Selernitana looks like that won't get away.

The Inter Milan team plays in the Champions League and Serie A. And in both  places they will try to do well.  And in such a busy schedule it becomes difficult to  consistently perform well in every match. The chances of players getting  injured also increases. But J uventus is not playing in Champions League or Europa League. So they  get plenty of time to prepare themselves before  every match. That's why despite not scoring  many goals, Juventus' performance is quite good  and regular. Juventus is only 2 points behind Inter Milan.
In  the next few matches, Juventus' opponents are quite weak. They will play against Salernitana Sassuolo, Lecce a nd Empoli. Juventus have a chance to go top of the table with consecutive  wins in these matches.

But these top professionals literally get into a zone where they don't think about the intense effort and performances they have to accomplish. It is really going from game to game for them and the only problem is an injury, that is correct. But these players are all living their dreams and for them it is rather beneficial to have more games than just one game per week. It's like they don't want to get kicked out of their rhythm when it is going perfectly for them.

I think Juventus will use this fixture advantage. All they have to do is win the matches and wait for Inter to drop points. As you said, Inter's more matches may put a strain on them and cause them to make changes in the squad before some matches. Therefore, they may lose points. We will wait and see if something like this will happen.

I don't know if Inter can improve their game with each match, but the fact that a team like Juventus is following them and they will be ahead at the first point loss may put a psychological strain on Inter. Top professionals have proven themselves by coming out well in such environments. Inter can do this too. With each passing week, things are getting more intense in the league and the viewing pleasure is getting better.

I said that quite the opposite is true. Injuries could get in the way because they have a higher load and that might put more stress on their physical condition, but still these guys are trained like nobody else and have all the recovery support they need. I just don't see it as a huge disadvantage if a team is playing in several competitions at the same time as that is what all of these players are striving for throughout their careers.

But yes Juventus Turin needs to focus on consistency and they must hope that Inter Milan will make a couple of mistakes or get into trouble because of injuries. But the same can happen to Juventus Turin.

The overhyped Napoli is underrated this season, they have no solid performance this season.

I am also excited seeing how Juventus is making the competition very intense with Inter Milan because they are now just two points behind Inter Milan and I am very sure Juventus will overtake Inter Milan because Inter will be facing Champions League knockout stage and Copa Italia; while Juventus is only facing the Seria A and Copa Italia that is why I am confident of them overtaking Inter Milan since they are also in the transfer Market to sign more players to strengthen the squad.

dont sell the bear skin before killing it, Napoli is not dead, not yet

yeah, Napoli is not dead yet.
However, if conditions continue like this, if Mazzarri is still unable to improve and bring Napoli to a much better situation, then slowly but surely, Napoli will remain in the middle standing clubs. Which means their hopes are completely dashed this season. and means they are no longer the giant club they were waiting for this season. It could be said that if conditions continue like this and there are no changes after the transfer market, this season will be the end for Napoli to be successful. It's just a matter of how they can improve the club for next season.

Coppa Italia week in still ongoing.

Atalanta managed to beat sassuolo for 3-1 while AS Roma is playing right now.

It should be an easy win for them versus Cremonese.

[QueenVera]

Cagliari this season have been slacking in keeping up with game victories, they've had a bad record so far. Their loss yesterday was expected no doubt but they'd have struggled harder to keep a high tempo in the game as Milan wasn't in much of a good form. Well Milan is a big team and they showed their class yesterday despite their poor form currently.

 Their struggle in the Serie A isn't encouraging and it won't be surprising that they'd finish up the season in a spot that isn't so encouraging. They have weeks ahead, now they're out of the Copa Italia contest and so they've got just one job to do, stay in shape and out of relegation. No one knows how well they'd be able to keep up with the aim for the rest of the season. There still will be tough opponents which they don't really stand a chance over, maybe they'd try harder to subdue less threatening teams.

dont sell the bear skin before killing it, Napoli is not dead, not yet

Napoli are not dead yet but the current situation is really unfavorable for them.
At the moment Napoli's situation is getting more and more chaotic and Rudi Garcia's change to Mazzari also still has not made a big impact and in fact they are now getting worse with the performance that is happening.
Currently they are in 8th place after a series of unsatisfactory results in the last 5 matches, they only managed to win 1 win and 1 draw, the rest are defeats for them and I think this must really have a real overhaul in terms of the strategies and schemes they do in the match.
In terms of the quality of players and attacks at the moment they are still quite good and it can be seen when they always manage to dominate but their current performance is still very lacking because the comparison of goal productivity this season and last season is very pronounced.

Coppa Italia round of 16 resumed.
So far Lazio, Fiorentina, Frosinone and Bologna qualified to the next round before the beginning of this year. The biggest blow was Inter and Napoli being kicked out of the competition.
Yesterday Milan won against Cagliari by 4 goals to 1 which is an expected victory.
Today there is two matches that will be played between Atalanta - Sassuolo and the next one is between Roma - Cremonese. The first impression that I have is Atalanta and Roma qualifications. Nevertheless, Sassuolo is an annoying opponent and could drive Atalanta to play penalties. Otherwise Roma's history with Cremonese isn't that successful since they lost two of the three matches that they played against each other.

It is surprising to see no Inter Milan and Napoli in the quarter final. I can't believe Bologna defeated Inter and Frosinone defeated Napoli. Inter and Napoli are actually stronger than those teams. I think it is because Inter and Napoli a bit underestimate their opponents. They were playing not with their best lineup.

Among those teams which are qualified for the quarter final, Milan should be the favorite team to win the title. But if Juventus can qualify, Juventus will be also the favorite to be the champion. So, the ideal final must be AC Milan vs Juventus. I hope this ideal final will happen and it will be interesting to watch.

I don't expect much with AS Roma. It seems they will be eliminated by Cremonese.

Yes, I also believe that the Champions League will bring some distractions to Inter Milan, and that may reduce their performance because they will also like to put more attention on the Champions League. So if Juventus really continue with their great performances, there is a high probability that they will overtake Inter Milan. As you said, due to Juventus concentration, now the serie A trophy is more valuable than others competition trophy they are playing currently, but for Inter Milan, the Champions League is the big trophy, which is why they may not put too much attention on the serie A like the Champions League.

I know Napoli is not die yet but it will be difficult for them to lift this trophy again in this season, which you know that there are many strong teams that has double cross them to use huge amount of points to gap them in the table. As it stand in this season, I don't think the coach can do something that will make the team to showcase what they have never showcase before because, some of their potential strikers will be leaving the team soon because their contract will expire soon and they don't want to continue with the team again.

I believe Napoli will improve next season because, by then their coach will have some new players that will make some improvement that will give their fans hope that with time their coach will get it right to help them win some trophy.

Maybe actually Inter Milan doesn't really care about the Italian Cup competition because Inter Milan is more focused on Serie A and the Champions League so their defeat to Bologna doesn't surprise us. However, at that time Napoli were not in their best form so the defeat by Frosinone with a score of 4-0 was really beyond our expectations. So, for AC Milan, they have a tough opponent in the quarter-finals because AC Milan will face Atalanta.

In the ongoing match between Roma vs Cremonese, the match has entered the 59th minute and it seems that Roma are really having trouble in this match. I don't understand why Roma has been so easy for their opponents to break through their goal this season. The match has entered the 62nd minute where Cremonese is able to lead 0-1 in this match.

Yes, despite the fact that last year Cremonese played in Serie A, and now plays in Serie B, even in the cup you always expect a more confident victory from a club that is good in the main division. At the very end of the game, Roma responded with two goals and it is unlikely that we will see a change in the score until the end of the game - Roma are interested in avoiding extra time and will not rush forward to score a third goal.

I somehow saw it coming and I also thought that Lukaku might be the one who scores the first goal. I was pretty sure that if they were able to score the first one with some time left, they would still win the game and that is what they did. That's actually when I like to watch Roma games because if there is something to fight for (and not something to defend because they had to win), then Roma can play great stuff. That's why normally I prefer games when Roma concedes the first goal. If it is the other way around, the games usually become boring like hell.

Finally, Roma was able to turn things around in this match where Lukaku and Dybala were able to score goals in the second half which enabled Roma to seal the win and advance to the quarter-finals. Roma faced weak opponents in this match so if they failed it would be a shame. Tomorrow we will see the match between juventus vs Salernitana, of course juventus is quite the favorite to be the winner in this match.

Mourinho must be able to bring Roma to the Italian Cup final because in this competition there are actually no big obstacles for them to become champions. But so far Juventus is the strongest candidate in this tournament and Allegri is ready to bring juventus to win their 15th title in this tournament.

[Velvet78]

I was really starting to think that Cremonese were going to do it again.    Because they maintained their 1-0 score advantage for a long time really. But Lukaku and Dybala took a big responsibility in the last fifteen-minute period of the game by scoring goals. This comeback brought Roma the next round at the same time.

Quarter finals matchups are really fierce ones already. If Juventus get past Salernitana obstacle as well then they are going to have the easiest matchup against Frosinone on paper. Like I said it is only on paper otherwise we shouldn't forget that Frosinone demolished Napoli in last 16 by 4-0.
