Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[dezoel]

Winning decisively at home is quite normal for Juventus even though this has become a record of being unbeaten at home 17 times this season for Juventus. Sassuolo was an opponent who was not strong enough so they were unable to score a single goal against Juventus in that match, so Juventus was able to win very easily and get back close to Inter Milan's points which are still firmly at the top of the Serie A standings this season.

Inter Milan are the only threat that stands infront of the Bianconeri. Good scores and complete suppression of opponents are extremely essential in every match. The points gained are deserved by the club that demonstrates the best performance with no minor disparities in difficulty. Sassuolo proved difficult, but in the end, they failed to offer the fans what they hoped for, losing 3-0 to Juventus, who are in their prime. Juventus is moving higher this season, and there's every reason to expect they won't hold back this season, giving everything they've got to keep playing at a high level.

Both clubs are, as of now doing impressive work at the top, and we have no challenger for them which is showing how competitive they are, and their chances are high for the staying at the top but who is going to win this is another question which is not clear but as we are watching 5th February is date when we will have derby match between these two clubs then things will be more clear who is going to lead from the front for the title race.

Inter Milan is more aggressive, and they are having good chance for the double but still things are not as we are going anything can bring anyone down because recently we have too many injuries which are bringing big teams down quickly, and they are fail to bring alternative because sources are limited hopefully we will have good competition at the top till end.

Is there any precedence for that though? If I remember correctly, their point deduction happened because they faked their accounting report[1]. There is nothing related to their participation in the Super League. While it is not surprising if they get another form of punishment from the Seria A governing body, I believe forbidding them from participating in the next season is way more effective compared to a point deduction since the goal of that competition is simply to get more money. Juventus will still earn money if that does happen, although it seems unlikely given how fans vehemently oppose this new competition.

I know but I believe it is a reason on tip of iceberg and there is no coincidence for that investigation against Juventus. It happened after Super League seemed to come closely to activation day. It is also not coincidence that after got the serious punishment, Juventus announced that they left Super League.

They possibly realized that they will got more cost from participation in Super League plan before it succeeds and they can get profit from it. Potential cost is bigger than potential benefit so Juventus gave up.

Let me just say anyone who underestimates Inter Milan is doing that at their own risk. Inter is never to be underestimate, not in this season even though they haven't taken the title yet they are leading the table standing right now with 51 points and  you must give respect to the team for their efforts in ensuring that they remained relevant amidst all the obstacles they have faced in this season but yet they stood their ground at the UCL. You see, football for me is not just all about winning all the times but it's about the consistency and efforts put into the gameplay. They deserve to be commended regardless.

Inter Milan at the moment is actually very strong but sometimes someone judges from other assessments such as Juventus who managed to approach Inter points with a very close margin and on the one hand usually the people who underestimate Inter are Juventus supporters but I as a neutral person do not side with any team I admit that both of them have the same chance of getting the Scudetto because for me both of these teams have their own advantages, such as Inter who are very consistent even though they have a match schedule in the UCL but this team is able to maintain its position at the top of serie A and Juventus also has greatness when this team is not have another competition schedule and make good use of the opportunity to reach runner up and have the opportunity to overtake Inter.

we never know what will happen next because if one loses consistently it will definitely be shifted and I still have confidence that Inter can maintain its position but it will be very interesting if Juventus can overtake Inter on points.

Yes, Inter Milan and Juventus are strong candidates in fighting for the Serie A league title because these two clubs have performed extraordinary so far and are still at the top of the standings with only a narrow difference in points, in fact their performance looks almost even considering the last meeting. Both of them have managed to draw this season, and the second meeting at the beginning of February will prove who is the strongest between them. To be honest, I don't want to see the two of them draw, I want to see that one of them can win and I think Inter Milan will benefit from playing in his own cage.

Inter Milan has a good level of productivity and the front line attackers work optimally so that Inter Milan chances of winning the title look very big, but Juventus also still prevents Inter Milan from winning the title because Juventus is also hungry for domestic league trophies after the last few Juventus seasons failed to achieve it and this time Juventus will continues trailing Inter Milan until Inter Milan loses its focused and slip from the top.

[xzone]

Atalanta had the opportunity to play against a very weak team yesterday and that's why they beat Frosinone yesterday with a huge margin of 5-0.  Although such a match is very boring to watch, I like yesterday match because a team like Atalanta managed to beat a team 5-0. Atalanta completed 3 goals within 14 minutes of the start of the game and then their opponents Frosinone nature gave up.  Atalanta are now in the 5th position of the points table which is a good enough position for them.  In the next match they are expected to move up to the fourth position as they are only 1 point behind the fourth placed team.

Atalanta's game was pretty good. We cannot always see them scoring 5 goals, they are not actually a top scoring team, but they showed a good performance.
I don't think they will rise to the top of the league rankings. Fiorentina has been losing points for 2 weeks and will not lose any more points in the next match. The match that will be really exciting will be the next match. They will play against Lazio, both teams have the same goal and their strengths are very close to each other

[Strongkored]

Juventus is a very good team so winning matches like that is no big achievement for them. this is a northemes mal and easy win for them. But yes it is good news for Juventus that they are going to overtake Inter very soon

Everyone knows that Juventus is one of the top teams in Serie A. We shouldn't doubt the quality of the players. In the latest match, Juventus also won the match with 3 goals without any conceded goal. This means Juventus very confident to compete for the title with Inter Milan. However, we don't underestimate Inter Milan, they look very strong as well. Inter Milan also played well in UCL, they even reached the final round in the last season. It means Inter Milan is a very experienced team in any competition. So, how can you say that Juventus to overtake Inter Milan soon? I think you have no reason to say this. 

With a very narrow point difference, isn't it possible for Juventus to take over Inter Milan's current position? and the answer is very possible because it only takes one defeat from Inter Milan for Juventus to become the leader of the standings, but the question is, will Juventus be able to maintain that position until they definitely win the title? Because anything can happen until the last match of the season unless one of them experiences a very deep decline and leads the standings with a large point difference like Napoli managed to achieve last season so that with a few games left they have already confirmed themselves as champions, hopefully the point difference like this will continue until the end of the season.
Both have turned into very stable teams this season even though Inter Milan is better in my opinion than Juventus because they are strong in all lines this season, Lautaro Martinez has experienced very good development this season and their defense is good so it is difficult for their opponents to penetrate, while Juventus still has to improve their front line so they can become a team that scores lots of goals in every match.

First test for As Roma's new coach at home right in front of the fans. I will do well to see why they got Jose Mourinho sacked yes I know his performance was gradually unbearable. Verona not doing so bad and not so well, I don't trust what the heck the bookmakers say though.

Milan has gradually seen some games won and has given em a good rise into the first three clubs in the Scudetto Competition. Tough game against Udinese though, predictions are for both sides to score though, hard to say who wins despite the new form of AC Milan.
Five last away games for Juventus have all been won completely, let's see if they can go on with them unbeaten run yet again this very week.

[deathcode]

Atalanta's game was pretty good. We cannot always see them scoring 5 goals, they are not actually a top scoring team, but they showed a good performance.
I don't think they will rise to the top of the league rankings. Fiorentina has been losing points for 2 weeks and will not lose any more points in the next match. The match that will be really exciting will be the next match. They will play against Lazio, both teams have the same goal and their strengths are very close to each other

Atalanta's opportunity to overtake Fiorentina is still wide open. Fiorentina's next match will face Inter. Even though you are playing at home, it is clear that facing Inter, who is currently at the top of the standings, will not be easy. while Atalanta will face Udinese, which could be a good opportunity to unseat Fiorentina if they fail to win against Inter.
The difference in points with the top 3 teams is quite large. Now the fight for 4th place in the standings will probably only happen to Fiorentina, Atalanta, and Lazio.

Atalanta sits 5th position comfortably and I don't they will lose the solidable spot. Frosinone is another random average team that easily records defeats against a competitive opponent, they have to fight to maintain good fight if they would still continue their existence in the Seria A race. Atalanta hitting the milestone of 5 goals, it's easy and I don't think any challenge would baffle them. Atalanta scores when they perceives an opportunity and they do not relent in giving their very best performance. Nerazzurri never back down when it comes to thrashing club's because it's a top notch for them.

I'm interested in seeing Roma's new coach; perhaps he will be even better than Mourinho, but he won't be as good as Mourinho because he hasn't accomplished what Mourinho has. I just want to see how good he is and how far he will be able to push Roma's performance. Roma is playing Verona, and I believe Roma can win the match because Verona isn't a particularly formidable opponent. Therefore, even if Roma wins this game, it doesn't necessarily mean they are good. I hope Roma plays against tough teams to give me hope that the new coach will make the team better. Roma should play against teams like Juventus and Inter Milan to see how good they are right now.

Regarding the match between Juventus and Lecce, I'm confident that Juventus will prevail because of their strong season-long play, which has made them a strong contender for the Italian Supercup. They also have a good chance of qualifying for the Champions League the following year. Even if Juventus only wins one trophy this year, they will still have a strong season because they've focused more on the Italian Supercup than any other season in the serie A league.

Atalanta's 5 goal victory over Frosinone is quite natural because in terms of quality these two teams have quite significant differences and indeed Atalanta's current performance is very good and they continue to maintain their team's consistency quite well.
If you look at quality and consistency, it is quite convincing for Atalanta to be able to compete at the top of the Serie A standings, they just need to maintain consistent performance.

Atalanta had the opportunity to play against a very weak team yesterday and that's why they beat Frosinone yesterday with a huge margin of 5-0.  Although such a match is very boring to watch, I like yesterday match because a team like Atalanta managed to beat a team 5-0. Atalanta completed 3 goals within 14 minutes of the start of the game and then their opponents Frosinone nature gave up.  Atalanta are now in the 5th position of the points table which is a good enough position for them.  In the next match they are expected to move up to the fourth position as they are only 1 point behind the fourth placed team.

You are right and Atalanta really took advantage of this opportunity, 5 goals can add to Atalanta's total goals, in the standings, even though Atalanta has the same points as Lazio, Atalanta managed to take 5th position because they have more goals. Atalanta is also still competing with AC Milan to get a ticket to the Champions League next season because the two teams are only 1 point apart.

Yeah. It was a good achievement for Atalanta. Because the number of goals can at least give them a better position in the standings. Although before the start of that match I was thinking they would win, I didn’t think it would be a very big margin like this. However, their opponents are not strong and Atalanta players are better than that, so Atalanta used that opportunity to score those goals. However, Atalanta are not 5th in the standings, and I believe they will continue to maintain these spots. I believe they will continue performing well so that they can be able to rank higher in their coming matches.

With a very narrow point difference, isn't it possible for Juventus to take over Inter Milan's current position? and the answer is very possible because it only takes one defeat from Inter Milan for Juventus to become the leader of the standings, but the question is, will Juventus be able to maintain that position until they definitely win the title?

Juventus may take over the position if Inter loses any matches from now on, but I think it will be difficult to see Inter lose any games now given that they are the ones topping the standings and they won’t want to leave the spot to any other team. However, Inter are very strong and their performances are good enough to concur with many teams that come their way, so I don’t think Juventus will find it easy to overtake them. However, are you still doubting if Juventus will maintain the sport if they successfully go to the top of the standings? Nobody can tell, because when Inter will rank up to the top. I was thinking they won’t take much time; they will come back again and they will continue to maintain it, so the same thing may happen to Juventus if they are able to take over; they will do all they can to remain there, just the way Inter are doing now.

I respect De Rossi as a player but as a coach, I have no belief in him.

well maybe he's good, he certainly has experience as a player but being a coach is different
there are some who have succeeded, see Carlo Ancellotti, he is really good
We will see
It really seems like a gamble to me and I wouldn't have done it as an owner from Roma

[Xcode7]

Even if Juventus only wins one trophy this year, they will still have a strong season because they've focused more on the Italian Supercup than any other season in the serie A league.

I am quite pessimistic about the current Roma coach, Daniele De Rossi is not an experienced coach and he does not have brilliant achievements as a coach so of course there will be a burden for Daniele De Rossi to replace the position left by Jose Mourinho, I am sure that Roma will be in Daniele's hands De Rossi won't be any better.
The weekend match against Verona does look easy and it would not be a surprise if they managed to win the match but if not then Daniele De Rossi's position as coach will make the situation even worse.
In fact, we cannot judge a coach's performance from just a few matches, but a good start will make it easier for Daniele De Rossi to look to the future.

For Juventus' match against Lecce, it is very easy to predict, Juventus is currently in their best performance, so when they meet an opponent whose quality is below their team's like Lecce, the possibility of Juventus winning is very big.

To be honest, I don't want to see the two of them draw, I want to see that one of them can win and I think Inter Milan will benefit from playing in his own cage.

There was no club who can compete with those clubs. Serie a has been dominated by juventus and intermilan right now. Im feeling quite good with it. It was also helping juventus to get scudetto easily caused by there was only one competitor to get the scudetto and that is intermilan.
Im seeing intermilan as the strongest candidate this time caused by it was always able making juventus struggle to surpass it. I hope that old lady will able to beat intermilan in the upcoming game.
The club will able to surpass intermilan and take the trophy at the end of season. Im also praying for lautaro to get injury caused by he was the biggest problem for anyother clubs in the serie a. He was very competence in scoring a lot of goals like osimhen like season.
He may even more consistent this time.

Inter Milan has a good level of productivity and the front line attackers work optimally so that Inter Milan chances of winning the title look very big, but Juventus also still prevents Inter Milan from winning the title because Juventus is also hungry for domestic league trophies after the last few Juventus seasons failed to achieve it and this time Juventus will continues trailing Inter Milan until Inter Milan loses its focused and slip from the top.

True but mostly of goals were coming from lautaro martinez. He was the only key owned by intermilan. Intermilan will be playing poorly without him. So, as long as intermilan will have lautaro martinez to play in the squad and it will always be a disaster for the club.
Im only trying to say based on the fact. As far as i know that intermilan's performance was was not as good as when lautaro martinez was playing. that's pretty much the same like when manchester city playes without haaland.
It's all becoming my main concern right now.

Let me just say anyone who underestimates Inter Milan is doing that at their own risk. Inter is never to be underestimate, not in this season even though they haven't taken the title yet they are leading the table standing right now with 51 points and  you must give respect to the team for their efforts in ensuring that they remained relevant amidst all the obstacles they have faced in this season but yet they stood their ground at the UCL. You see, football for me is not just all about winning all the times but it's about the consistency and efforts put into the gameplay. They deserve to be commended regardless.

we never know what will happen next because if one loses consistently it will definitely be shifted and I still have confidence that Inter can maintain its position but it will be very interesting if Juventus can overtake Inter on points.

You are absolutely right about that, Inter Milan this season looks very strong in Serie A by sitting at the top of the standings. In my opinion, regarding the problem you mean, they don't mean to belittle it, but are just expressing the opinion of someone who is a Juventus fan. However, things like this are certainly not only done by Juventus fans, I'm sure there are also many Inter Milan fans who underestimate Juventus. So I think this is very normal and everyone has the right to voice their voice for the favorite team they support and things like this shouldn't be a problem. Inter Milan and Juventus do have their respective advantages in every match they play and this season both teams look very strong and their performance looks very good. Maybe these two teams really need to maintain their performance and consistency in the next match to be able to maintain their position in the standings and focus on becoming Serie A champions.

It is true that football matches cannot be predicted, because this season always provides many surprises and we never know the situation and conditions on the field and what the final result will be. So in essence, Juventus and Inter Milan have great potential to be able to compete to maintain their wins and maintain their respective points, let's see how these two teams can maintain their quality and survive to become champions of the Serie A league this season.

The match that will be really exciting will be the next match. They will play against Lazio, both teams have the same goal and their strengths are very close to each other

Atalanta's big win really caused amazement because this team usually doesn't score many goals in beating their opponents, but in this match they really seemed to have it easy because Frosinone is a weak team that is in 15th position and almost approaching the relegation zone. and after this match Atalanta will face a weak team again, namely Udinese, I think Atalanta will do the same considering Udinese is much weaker than Frosinone.
It is not easy to occupy 4th position but Atalanta still has a big chance of occupying that position.

[Velvet78]

Inter don't have any game to play on this week which means Juventus can take the lead from them temporarily. There is a Lecce - Juventus game at this wekeend. Juventus are obviously highly favourite side to win. Lecce are just a team quite close to relegation zone in points. This doesn't mean Juventus can have some complacency of course.

Juventus need to take every single game of theirs seriously from now on if they aim the league title. Because Inter also don't lose points easily these days. Juventus have improved their performance quite much lately. They have seemed more productive when it comes to goals. They should be victorious here.

Haha, exactly! This could be extremely psychologically unpleasant for Inter players. It turns out that it’s like “we scored 51 points out of 60 possible, scored the most goals, conceded the fewest... but we fall to second place”  It is clear that everything remains in the hands of Inter and they remain leaders in terms of lost points, but such proximity of a competitor can get on your nerves. I think the Inter players are very aware of how they dominate Serie A this season and the fact that someone is keeping up with them can be intimidating (especially a club like Juventus).

Yeah it would be really annoying for Inter players to be overtaken by that.    But Simone Inzaghi has a really solid chemistry with the team now and the players are believing in themselves completely. It wouldn't take them so long to take their place back from Juventus. I expect to see high-scoring performances from Inter until the end of the season as well.  

Inter have such a great balance between the scoring productivity and solid defense. They don't concede goals easily which must be another worrying issue for Juventus on the road going to the league title.

I try the luck, i try to follow Roma and i think Roma can win versus Verona:
* AS Roma - Hellas Verona FC => AS Roma
* Udinese - AC Milan => AC Milan
* Lecce - Juventus => Juventus

of course Milan and Juventus need to win
i think they can without problems

I don't have any fear about tomorrow prediction because, Roma will take victory from Verona and it will be difficult for that game to end up in a draw game 1:1 base on the players Roma coach is going to use to play the game through out so that their fans in the stadium will feel good and comfortable to watch the game till the end.

 If you look at the undines position in the Italy serie A table, you will be convince that AC Milan will win them in their home because AC Milan has embraced many opportunities to increased their points to where they are today to be counted among the teams that will qualify for the final bottle.
