Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Davian144]

the Salerno team conceded 6 goals, it was easy for it to happen, the team is really in shape, watch out for Juventus for this championship

Conceding more goals for a weak team like Salernitana is quite normal if the opponent itself is a team that is quite strong and not balanced in terms of strength. Today in the Coppa Italia there are two matches which might be quite good because the teams playing them are not so bad in Serie A, they are AC Milan vs Atalanta and Lazio vs Roma. So today Italian League fans can enjoy these two matches because they are played at different times.

I'm not sure that Napoli will catch up to be in the top four this season, especially since yesterday's defeat against Torino was certainly a fairly worrying defeat with a landslide score of 3 goals without reply, Napoli must be able to accept it with grace, Napoli is aware of the result What is worrying is that in the domestic league and also in the UCL, they will meet opponents who are also difficult to face against Barcelona. Napoli must really be able to recover from their downturn if they want to improve because there is still a chance for them until the end of the season.

Napoli performance has been truly poor this season, especially in their last match they were beaten so badly by Torino. To be in the top four seems like to be difficult if their coach can't find the crux of the problem, although Napoli still has big potential, but if the coach can't improve Napoli performance then Napoli will only be stuck in the middle of the standings. Also, especially considering that their focus is not only on the domestic league.

* Fiorentina - Udinese => Fiorentina
* Atalanta BC - Frosinone => Atalanta BC
* Juventus - Sassuolo => Juventus

8.34

For Napoli, i know Napoli have problems, but Salernitana is the last on serie A, for this reason i bet on Napoli win.

A Napoli without Victor Oshime hasn't done well truthfully, Juventus didn't get it easy against this same Salernitana, they be both facing hard times so you have to go for both sides scoring.

Inter Milan should win, too much pressure and January always comes with the highest heat and pressure. They shouldn't lose regardless, not this game.

Atalanta also be struggling, when will they finally sack their coach for another? He has tried but not enough. For Juventus at home impressing the fans. They'll definitely win this one. Nothing more than three goals scored.

Inter Milan, Juventus and Milan have the opportunity to finish in the top four at the end of the season, regardless of who wins the Scudetto, these three clubs will automatically appear in the Champions League next season. There is one ticket left to be competed for by several teams including Napoli, with their current performance I have a little doubt they can achieve it. As you said, other clubs are also trying their best to secure these tickets, Fiorentina, who are currently in fourth place, will not waste the available opportunities.

It is believed that competition for fourth place will get tighter as the season progresses, as will the race for the Scudetto. Every team still has the opportunity to improve and improve their performance, there are still 19 opportunities to make everything possible. However, in the current competition, Napoli strength is no longer taken into account, because it is very easy to lose points.

If you look at the current opportunities, Inter Milan, Juventus and AC Milan are almost certain to have secured the top 3 places this season. This means there is only 1 place left to the champions league. Fiorentina, Bologna, Atalanta and Lazio have points that are not much different so the four of them will compete for the 1 remaining slot in the Champions League next season. And I think Napoli no longer has any hope of getting into the Champions League. Maybe there is still a chance to go to the European League. Because with the current points even though it is still half a season but with their current performance I think it will be difficult for them to even get a ticket to the European league next season.

I think the battle for the title will be just between Inter and Juventus. Milan will certanly take the third place and i dont see them honestly fighting for the title. The race for fourth place will be intresting aswell because many clubs are fighting and we will see who will keep up for that fourth place.

Napoli stuck in tight corner this season, it will take lengthy time before the would recover. Napoli ranked 9th position on the table, a disbelief situation found by Napoli fans because last season, they won the scudetto and now they're struggling to enter significant positions on the table. The focused of these main team is winning top titles. The domestic league is prioritized to become the first thing on the chart of every club for the beginning of the season. We should not look down on Napoli, they're not doing fine at the moment, which is totally understandable by the supporters.

[QueenVera]

Juventus has been meet it two times in a row. The first match was on the italian league and juventus was destroying salernitana but im quite surprised to see that how salernitana was performing quite better in copa italia. It means there were some improvements happened in the club.
Juventus was struggling against it and it was only scoring two goals. The club is just getting better compared to the last season and it's not surprising me to see that if people are starting to paytheir attention toward the old lady.
The old lady was playing so perfectly in the matches against salernitana. All i have seen high moments in the juventus. It was fucking amazing to see that vlahovic has been finally having better stats compared to the lukaku. It seems allegri will think for twice before try to sell him.
It appears that vlahovic to be one of most important player in the club right now. I may probably wrong but i tell you this is the fact. Old lady may be getting scudetto this season and i do believe it.

For Juventus, by every records of games played, they're expected to earn the 3points for the match easily but one way or the other, their opponent Salernitana were able to make it a tough ride for them. Juventus is a title racing team and they've got to do better, the level at which lower teams ride them is alarming and it's likely going to take effect on their race. Inter is a good side and they wouldn't risk any chance they have to give Juventus a reasonable gap on the league table. Juventus shouldn't try to slack in performance as they may have to pay dearly for it.

 The strongest teams of the league are Juventus and Inter and the odds for the trophy for these teams are very very much alike. Thankfully, they were able to secure a narrow win so far in their league encounters, which although hasn't given them much point gaps too but is still promising. Juventus have still got extra time to prepare ahead for the league games.

I think the battle for the title will be just between Inter and Juventus. Milan will certanly take the third place and i dont see them honestly fighting for the title. The race for fourth place will be intresting aswell because many clubs are fighting and we will see who will keep up for that fourth place.

For now everyone must believe this because in the end it is difficult for several clubs including our defending champions Napoli to try to catch up now with their current chaotic situation so it is certainly Juventus and Inter who are currently the strongest candidates. But in the middle of the season towards the end it is actually possible that there are other clubs that can be a surprise just like Lazio did last season where they shot up even to second place last season.
Milan still have a chance even though their gap is still far enough behind because until now the difference is 7 points adrift of Juventus and 9 points from Inter but their chance to catch up is still there.
It depends on how they perform and the consistency shown at this time because whoever can survive and can be consistent then he will be at the top until the end.

Napoli is in the 9th place now, but the point gap with Fiorentina in the 4th place looks not very large. Actually, Napoli still has the chance to finish in UCL zone if they can play better in the second half of the season. However, Napoli is in the very bad form, it is hard to expect them to play consistently. Unless Napoli could change their tactics or sign new players to improve their performance, Napoli looks like to finish this season out of the top 5 of Serie A standings.

The fact that there are only 5 points to Fiorentina (fourth place) does not mean anything at all. In such situations, you need to take into account the number of teams that are in front of you. For example, if there was only one point to fourth place, but there were 100 teams ahead of Napoli, then Napoli’s chances of overtaking them all would be practically zero. Now there are as many as five teams ahead of Napoli and this is a large enough number that, despite the formally small gap, we can assume that Napoli’s chances are very low. Maybe a change of coach will give some kind of shake-up to the team, but at the moment it is not very clear how Napoli can seriously strengthen.

I don't think it's impossible for Napoli to qualify for the Champions League yet. Because there is still a long journey ahead. Each team will still play 19 more matches. So the scenario is likely to change. But for that, Napoli need to play well and win consistently. Napoli team is 5 points behind Fiorentina in the fourth place in the table. Napoli are also now ninth in the points table. There is still a chance to finish fourth in the table with consistent good performances and wins. But as Napoli are currently performing poorly, the chances of Napoli winning every match in a row is very low.

Napoli chance of finishing in 4th position is in their hands, but if they fail to improve their performance and win most of their matches, I don't think that it is be possible for them because the clubs ahead of Napoli also trying their best to see that they can qualify for UCL too.

It will be a big challenge for them because of their current form and their coach can't come up with a good game strategy to see if it will work out, since the old one is not favoring them. I feel for Napoli each time that I see them struggle to win a match and they end up losing the match. The defending champions are now vulnerable to small clubs.

Maybe this was the result of a mistake by the management who fired Luciano Spalletti, even though this coach was actually the first to give success to Napoli in winning Scudetto title, but instead he was fired just because he failed to win the title in Champions League, while Napoli management did not understand that Spalletti was truly very influential and had proof. What is clear that after being replaced by Garcia, Napoli actually experienced decline in performance and were replaced again by Mazzarri and did not have any changes and even experienced a deeper decline in performance.
Osimhen was very lucky to extend his contract with Napoli. Imagine if osimhen had moved to another club, maybe Napoli would be very bad.

I agree with you, Juventus is known for winning the Serie A league trophy in the past years, and they will want to dominate the Serie A league once again. The way Juventus has performed this season, Juventus had shows that they want to win the Serie A trophy this season. There is a chance for Juventus to top Inter Milan at the top of the Serie A table because Inter Milan will rest some of their players when the Uefa Champions League round of 16 starts, and that will make Inter Milan not perform well against their opponents.

Juventus dominance in the serie A ended few seasons back and they have every since been trying to regain that form but then it's been almost not possible until this season they beginning to show some good performance at some point, the defending champions happens to be in a poor form at this moment and so it's an opportunity for Juventus.

Inter Milan is another challenge that Juventus may really have to overcome if they must be able to reclaim back the league dominance and win the title once again this season, its over two seasons or more since Juventus last won the serie A and they can change the narrative this season if they get back a solo form and be able to get ahead of inter Milan before the end of the season. Juventus has got only the serie A this season so they have enough focus on it and they have greater potential with the title if the put in the needed effort.

The defending champion, Napoli is out of the race to win the Serie A title this season, Inter Milan is the only club that can stop Juventus from not winning the Serie A title this season. With the way Inter Milan and Juventus struggled to win their last match before this month will end, either Inter Milan or Juventus win drop points.

So today Italian League fans can enjoy these two matches because they are played at different times.

The match between Lazio v AS Roma has entered the last minute and the score is still 1-0 Lazio leading, and I believe this score will also be the final score for this match . Because anyway, it looks like AS Roma is having a deadlock this match because yes, even though AS Roma has ball possession but in fact AS Roma still fails to make a goal . But for the next match between Milan v Atalanta, I expect there to be many goals in this match, at least both teams to score is a good result too. Considering Milan and Atalanta have good aggressiveness, so it is very natural for both teams to score in this match.

[puloweh555]

It seems, if Napoli keep Mazzarri until the end of the season then ya, there seems to be no good chance for Napoli to be able to improve its position in the Serie A standings. Although indeed, in the past Mazzarri had a good history in becoming head coach for Napoli. But ya, of course the past and in this era at least have different match tensions and of course different styles of play too. So yes, it doesn't seem right if Napoli expect a lot with Mazzarri to repeat his success like in the past. Because anyway, Mazzarri is also not used to handling other elite teams out there, so basically Napoli still needs the right coach to restore Napoli quality and performance.

What happened to Napoli this season was really sad, after winning the Serie A title, their game immediately changed even though not many players left. It is true that Napoli is strong because of coach Spalletti, but now that they have changed coaches twice, their performance has not improved, even with coach Mazzarri, Nopoli is getting worse. I don't know if a change of coach will be the solution for Napoli now to improve their ranking in the standings, but what is clear is that this is not the right choice. Changing coaches will not improve playing performance because changing coaches requires more adaptation. What Napoli needs to do now is continue to correct mistakes in every match so that the team's confidence can rise again. Nopoli's condition is very bad now. Even Leicester have never performed that badly a year after they won the EPL title.

Lazio finally won AS Roma as the game ended 1-0. It is quite unfortunate for Roma in this match as they couldn't equalize the goal. They played their best and took possession of the game but lucky wasn't on their side as they couldn't find the back of the net despite all the chances that they had.

Milan should be able to win Atlanta in the next match which will start soon and I don't expect a draw from this match. This is because Milan is stronger than Atlanta, and Atlanta wouldn't be able to withstand the pressure that Milan will mount to them so that they can win the match.

[Weawant]

He has not been in charge of Napoli for 2 months yet. We seem to be acting a little hastily. Mazzarri is a coach with significant experience. Both his age and experience are enough for Napoli. I think the problem is not with Mazzarri, but with unrest within the team. Players cannot concentrate. They can't focus on the game like last year.

Actually the expectations on mazziarri is quite high probably because the exit of the formal coach was due to poor performance and they were expecting to see instant results especially for a team. Who won the league title last season so it was expected that upon his arrival most things will change such with almost instant results.

I've always been of the opinion that this man may need more time to get things straight with the team, even a magician would need time aswell to fix whatever has gone wrong but then it seemed more like even before the arrival of mazzirria they have already had too high an expectations from him and that's why they are not patient to seeing results from a Coach who has spent less than four months at the club but then so far he's doing well for a new Coach, he's won a few games and lost a few aswell but I believe sooner he will be able to get the team back on track but then he'll be needing some time.

Napoli are also now ninth in the points table. There is still a chance to finish fourth in the table with consistent good performances and wins. But as Napoli are currently performing poorly, the chances of Napoli winning every match in a row is very low.

You don't seem to understand me. Ok, I’ll try to explain my point of view differently: everyone has a chance to continue playing well (why not if half the season has already passed and there is no point in talking about luck). Who has more chances: one team (Napoli) or five (Fiorentina, Bologna, Lazio, Atalanta, Roma)? Especially considering that each of these five teams has an advantage over Napoli in terms of points.

The bet of week is:
* Napoli - Salernitana => Napoli
* Monza - Inter Milan => Inter Milan
* Lazio - Lecce => Lazio
* Fiorentina - Udinese => Fiorentina
* Atalanta BC - Frosinone => Atalanta BC
* Juventus - Sassuolo => Juventus

8.34

For Napoli, i know Napoli have problems, but Salernitana is the last on serie A, for this reason i bet on Napoli win.

The picks look safe (except Fiorentina) but I'm not sure the low odds are worth the risk. And if you look at the statistics, in every round one of the top teams loses points, that’s Serie A.

I can put myself into the shoes of Mourinho right now because that kind of goal is a goal that he likes to score. A penalty out of nowhere and then park the bus. But this time it was Lazio getting that goal via penalty. Too bad that this single goal decided who the winner will be, but it is part of the game and especially these two teams no better than many others how it feels to fall behind because of such a foul and then not be able to score the equalizer and get eliminated. Mourinho got beaten by his own means.

To be in the top four seems like to be difficult if their coach can't find the crux of the problem, although Napoli still has big potential, but if the coach can't improve Napoli performance then Napoli will only be stuck in the middle of the standings.

Napoli stuck in tight corner this season, it will take lengthy time before the would recover.

We should not look down on Napoli, they're not doing fine at the moment, which is totally understandable by the supporters.

It must be very difficult for anyone to accept the results that Napoli have gotten so far and they are so bad that they have dropped to 9th place in the standings. They try again and again but the results are not always what they want and we can also see that their game is becoming less clear day by day. I thought that with the current squad at least they could still get a place in the top 4 but in reality it is quite the opposite and maybe this is because the style of play given by the current coach is not right.

I think if they can finish in the top 4 this season that is the maximum achievement they can get because if they defend the title they won't be able to because this season Serie A already has a new candidate, either Inter or Juventus. So Napoli must do it again next season with even more mature preparation.

[marcous]

What Napoli needs to do now is continue to correct mistakes in every match so that the team's confidence can rise again. Nopoli's condition is very bad now. Even Leicester have never performed that badly a year after they won the EPL title.

The factor of Spalletti departure is the strongest reason why Napoli is currently experiencing a drastic decline in performance, even though Rudi Garcia and now Walter Mazzarri have most of Spalletti legacy players in the main squad. It is possible that the President of Napoli will fire their coach again and appoint a new successor if he thinks that Napoli is too down. Failing to manage their self confidence as defending champions, perhaps this expression is suitable for Napoli at this time.

The increasing performance of the mid-table teams makes it increasingly difficult for Napoli to penetrate the top four of the standings. It can be concluded that Napoli has failed to defend the Scudetto even though the season is only half over. In the Coppa Italian, Napoli have been eliminated, their only hope this season so as not to fast for a title is the Italian Super Cup, Fiorentina is their opponent in the semifinals there. In the Champions League, I don't think Mazzarri squad will be able to beat Barcelona, I think their progress will stop in the round of 16.

The solution for Napoli in the future is to look for a new coach with a wealth of experience. Previously, De Laurentiis was reported to have approached Conte to replace Garcia. I was surprised when I heard the news that Mazzarri was finally appointed as the new successor. On the other hand, retaining Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia is an obligation, if they still want to challenge for the title next season.

[Josefjix]

I think the problem is not with Mazzarri, but with unrest within the team. Players cannot concentrate. They can't focus on the game like last year.

Napoli already scout a more secure process of getting a manager. Walter Mazzarri is capable and can lead Napoli to victory. Wait a minute, is Walter Mazzarri not doing enough to address the club's current situation? He is not a new coach because he formerly managed Napoli and is accustomed with how the club functions on a regular schedule. Napoli may struggle to return to good form this season since, following the departure of their prominent coach, Luciano Spalleti, the club's performance has declined because the replacement coaches have not handled any solid scores.
