Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Arenga pinnata]

Whenever two strong teams are playing against each other, it is always expected that either a lot of goals are scored or the teams try not to concede goals and if you ask me the latter was actually what happened in that game. None of the two teams wanted to lose the game and that's why they were very careful in the back as not to let in goals. Inter Milan only goal yesterday was as a result of an own goal from a Juventus defender who mistakenly directed the ball in to the Juventus net

Both teams played cautiously, but Inter beat Juventus and passed a very critical stage on their way to the title. I think they are now everyone's first favorites.

I'm curious to see how Roma, who have started a new chapter with De Rossi, will perform against Cagliari. They are currently in 6th place. They beat Cagliari 4-1 in the first half of the season. If they win today, they will be 5th in the league and close to the top 4. This match is very important for them. They started this season badly but with a couple of wins they can turn it into a good season.

Inter Milan had many opportunities which almost became goals in that match. Likewise with Juventus. But indeed both teams have very strong defenses. And this is what makes it difficult for both teams to score goals.

I think the AS Roma vs Cagliari match will be a match that will make AS Roma collect 3 points again. Because so far De Rossi has still been able to make AS Roma overcome ordinary teams in Serie A. And they have not yet lost after De Rossi became coach at the club. A tough test may occur in the match against Inter Milan later. Meanwhile, in the match against Cagliari, maybe it won't be a tough test for De Rossi. But if AS Roma cannot win this match then it will be bad for De Rossi. And he will start to be doubted as a coach there.

Atalanta won against Lazio and secure their fourth position so AS Roma must win against Cagliari to continue their race with Atalanta and other clubs like Bologna, Lazio, Fiorentina. Roma and De Rossi had three matches, won all together but they will have another test today, Cagliari. The honeymoon of De Rossi with AS Roma will have to stop but I really hope it will not stop in a match with Cagliari.

If they can not beat Cagliari, they will create more difficulty for themselves and fall into a harder competition with other clubs. If they win, they will see top for a little bit more closely.

I think Inter's win over Juventus solidifies their title threat this season. They are consistent even in safe matches, which speaks volumes. How a single goal, even an own goal, can change the outcome of such close races is remarkable. The way Inter has played so far suggests they can keep their lead. For Roma under De Rossi, I'm excited. A good foundation has been laid by beating expected opponents. Today's game versus Cagliari is essential for their league position and momentum. Wins and table climbs will put them in good shape. De Rossi's plan in tougher matches should be watched, but Roma's prospects are good

Inter Milan are running away with the wins and points on the table. If they continue with the form they are in. There is no chance whatsoever for others to chase them down. Their win against Juventus, who were the closest behind them widens the game even further. Juve is having a great season in their own right but is still unable to keep up with Inter. Can anyone chase Inter down?

[len01]

I think with the number of games remaining and the teams they will play, it will no longer be possible to unseat Inter Milan. Inter Milan has been confirmed as champion after beating Juventus. Because the only team that can postpone their championship celebration is Juventus and they were able to beat them. Inter Milan still have to maintain the consistency of their game in the remaining matches, but I think the Milanese can already make preparations for the title party.

we don't know what will happen even though you said that in the remainder of this match Inter Milan looks like they have locked the title in series A but I slightly disagree because anything could happen in the remainder of this match on the one hand Inter Milan will continue their match in the UCL which will definitely affect the performance of the players who will fight to use all their energy to win the match in the UCL can cause a decline in performance in the series A match.
even if I really want Inter to be the Scudetto title holders, I would only realistically think that there are still 15 matches remaining which will continue to provide surprises.

Inter Milan might be able to beat Juventus in yesterday's match but for me Inter position is still not safe because it is still very close to the points that Juventus has and on the one hand Juventus defeat is not the end of everything because we will not only focus on yesterday's match because Juventus will be able to got points against Udinese and for Juventus the strongest opponent is only Inter.

Intermilan is a very consistent club and im sure that it will be performing consistently till the end of season. The match against juventus had proven intermilan is the strongest team in the serie a. It was also very balanced team in all of lines. Intermilan is good in attack or even defense. It has also so many great players.
Intermilan can only down if there will be some players will be injured which is too good to be true to happen. As long as intermilan will be playing with the full squad and three points are easy from any matches in the seriea . The score didn't matter a lot as long as the club can win three points.

Winning scudetto trophy can be achieved only when intermilan will be consistently getting three points. I think that a lot of people are also seeing the same like me. You want scudetto and three points are a must for intermilan. Intermilan was not always depending on one of two players.
All of players have very big contributions to the club. It can be seen from how intermilan was performing better since the early season. The club is just getting even more structured and solid. No doubt if its opponents were scared t face intermilan.
Bookies need to put intermilan to be included at the potential clubs to win UCL. it's weird i was missing intermilan from the list.

In terms of strength, Inter Milan is better than other Serie A teams and it is natural that they are now quite comfortable at the top of the standings with a difference of 4 points from Juventus who are in second place and Inter Milan still has 1 match left to play so it is possible that Inter Milan can make the difference to 7 points.
Indeed, all possibilities in football are quite difficult to predict, especially since this season is still very long, but looking at what has happened, looking at the strength and consistency that Inter Milan has, I also think that they will not be overtaken.

Inter has once again showcased their dominance in Italy by defeating their closest rival Juventus, securing a 4-point lead with an additional game in hand. Despite Juventus' efforts, their attack fell short, placing them behind Inter. While Juventus might not get the title, their season continues to be positive, and the team remains in a favorable position.

Can anyone chase Inter down?

It's extremely hard to imagine Inter losing the title, and anyone dare to challenge them this season.

[Oneandpure]

Inter Milan is increasingly confident of winning the Scudetto this season after winning over 1-0 against Juventus and has remaining 4 points with one more match left, for Serie A tittle race this season seems dominance by Inter and Juventus because the 3rd standings team AC Milan has 8 points left.

Indeed, all possibilities in football are quite difficult to predict, especially since this season is still very long, but looking at what has happened, looking at the strength and consistency that Inter Milan has, I also think that they will not be overtaken.

Looking with consistency Inter Milan performance in this season very difficult get any teams will take points against Inter, for upcoming match against AS Roma seems not problem for Inter Milan in the winning trend and keep confidence to make many points left from Juventus on second standings place. During consistency performance not matter with how many matches left but Inter Milan has bigger chance to be the winner of Scudetto in this season.

Inter Milan had many opportunities which almost became goals in that match. Likewise with Juventus. But indeed both teams have very strong defenses. And this is what makes it difficult for both teams to score goals.

Both team has got a good defense system that I would want to really commend but I see inter Milan have good resistance and exercising good confidence in their defense much more than I see with Juventus the both did player well and the performance was a good one but some how Juventus wasn't favoured well enough at the end of the day.

Inter is really doing great because they still have their team in great form and considering they are yet to be involved in another game except for the serie A games until they resume the UCL games again, but then Juventus has got all their focus on This as this is the only cup they have got a chance at this season but so far I have some doubts around their fate and I don't know if their ban at the UCL has been lifted so they could use qualifications for the UCL as an achievement the got from this season else they got almost nothing from this season.

Unfortunately, I didn’t have the opportunity to watch this match, maybe I’ll do it later, but the result of this match is completely in the hands of Inter, now they have one more game in hand and 4 points of advantage, and potentially 7 points, so this is a very serious application to the Scudetto.
And for Juventus there is now nothing left but to finish the season and try not to let Milan get too close to them. And today we have a match between Roma and Cagliari, and De Rossi will definitely try to take Roma up to the top 4, if he succeeds, then I think that he will have a chance to sign a longer contract with Roma.

It cannot be denied that this season Inter is very strong, the main competitor Juventus seems unable to stop Inter from winning the scudeto this season, after last night's defeat the gap between the two teams in points has widened.
Even though AC Milan and Napoli have started to find their form for the Scudeto route, Inter seems to have moved away from them, maybe it is only a matter of time for Inter to secure the Serie A title this season.

In the Inter vs Juventus match, Inter showed a very good performance and they are able to prove themselves strong enough to be the top number one in every match. Juventus are a very good team but Inter played very well against them and beat them. If I had predicted that the match would be a 0-0 draw. But when OG scored a goal in favor of Inter in the first half. Then I was in confusion that the match was likely to be lost by Juventus.  And so it happened. Juventus missed a good chance because it was a good chance for them

Why do you still involve Milan and Napoli because anyway, Inter's closest team is Juventus also cannot keep up with Inter so ya, it is not right to still involve Milan and Napoli for the title race this season . Also,Inter victory against Juventus is at least can predictable and ya, again and again the match between Inter v Juventus only ends with a thin score or a very low score . Because ya,at least even if Juventus lose but it is appropriate for Juventus to be able to make goals too but in reality, Juventus is still not strong enough to match against Inter in the race for the scudetto this season . Only playing in the domestic league but in fact, still does not make Juventus lucky, because Juventus still failed.

[KTChampions]

The score 1-0 is modest, but this is a fairly common occurrence in decisive games. Remember the last Champions League finals. Plus, I would note that there are no complaints about Inter - rather, they were unlucky in converting their chances, they had enough chances to score at least a second goal:

Shots - 15:12
Shots on target - 3:1
Corners - 6:4

And by the way, Calhanoglu’s shot at the post is not included in the statistics of shots on target. The only team that disappointed was Juventus - yes, they were able to hold off Inter's pressure and did not lose 3-0, but what's the point if they didn't even have a chance for a draw. The title race is now over.

It is possible that after making this mistake, Juventus further improved their defense and many of Inter's opportunities were wasted. I think it's normal for a team to make a mistake and then fix it and that's good, but sometimes if you just focus on fixing that without developing your attack then it's no use. Juventus should realize they are one goal behind and they need to be more aggressive if they want to get a decent result against Inter.

What we see are two teams with different mentalities and I think Inter here is much more dominant even though they won with luck. Overall, Inter is in control of the title race this season and Juventus might be able to catch up if a team is able to beat the team. But the chances are very small and it seems quite impossible that any team can beat Inter.

I got the impression that Juventus had a plan to endure a draw. But after Inter scored a goal, it turned out that there was no plan B at all. 0 shots on target in the first half and 1 shot on target in the entire game. What? What can you count on here? Probably if Juventus tried to go all-in, then Inter would simply tear them apart (they already had enough chances for this), but for my taste it is better to lose 4-1 in a fight than 1-0 without any chances and recognizing the opponent’s superiority.

[marcous]

In the end, Inter Milan was too tough for the other Serie A contestants this season. After successfully beating Juventus, Inzaghi fleet will most likely go it alone in the hunt for the Scudetto in the future. I think no other team can stem Inter ambitions in the remaining half of the second season. The point gap with Juventus will widen if Inter completes the postponed match against Atalanta. On paper Inter can finish it by securing full points, it is possible that the point gap will be 7 in the future. Apart from the own goal, it must be admitted that Inter is indeed a little better and luckier this season.

Next week there is a test that is no less interesting, where Inter will face Roma, De Rossi wants to get a stage in that match. I'm sure Inter can get through it too, and as I said at the start, Inter already have a 70% chance of winning the Scudetto this season, and they will run alone in the standings until the end of the season.

[swogerino]

Although it was an accidental own goal for Juventus this means that most likely the Serie A ended already unless Inter really mess it up in these remaining weeks and Juventus makes 0 mistakes.This is highly unlikely to happen and Juventus can only hope that Inter gets really tired in the Champions League games and because of this to make some mistake in Serie A,still I believe Inter to be Champions this season in Serie A.

[topbitcoin]

With this result, Inter managed to stay away from Juventus for the pursuit of competition in the race for the Scudetto because Inter are 4 points ahead and 1 game remaining which makes this a good thing for them because after all, results like this are what Inter must do in order to continue to maintain their consistency this season especially since mid-season is a vulnerable condition for Inter if you reflect on previous seasons.

I think with the number of games remaining and the teams they will play, it will no longer be possible to unseat Inter Milan. Inter Milan has been confirmed as champion after beating Juventus. Because the only team that can postpone their championship celebration is Juventus and they were able to beat them. Inter Milan still have to maintain the consistency of their game in the remaining matches, but I think the Milanese can already make preparations for the title party.

That's still not certain because after all with the conditions that occur in Serie A all possibilities can still always occur so in this case even though Inter are still superior for now it doesn't mean they won't fall because that kind of thing is still very possible to happen especially when we also know how when the previous seasons happened where the fall could have happened even though their opponents were not too strong.

Indeed in this case we must be aware that the probability that Inter have to continue to be able to be at the top is very high if you see the performance and the game they always do but on the other hand we must also be aware that things like this are still unpredictable and we still have to continue to wait for the continuation of Serie A to see how they perform for the rest of the season.
Currently if we look at the schedule that Inter will do, they are actually only focused on the Champions League and Serie A alone but it is also not a guarantee that they will be able to continue to be stable because everything can definitely happen.

Yes indeed, it doesn't matter whether it was an own goal or not, because an own goal occurred, it means that Inter succeeded in pressing Juventus in that match, because in the first half it was clear that Inter had good dominance. Of course, because Inter had managed to get that 1 goal, then Inter just needed to defend it and it worked because yes, in the second half Juventus still didn't manage to get a goal back. Apart from that, at least in terms of goal productivity and total goals conceded so far this season, in reality Inter is still the best compared to Juventus. Therefore, having a gap of 4 points now, I personally believe that Inter is able to maintain it.

I agree that it was an own goal, but it was due to the pressure that Inter Milan put on Juventus. It wasn't some stupid own goal that could be considered unlucky. It didn't come out of the blue, it was a legit attack and I guess the Inter player could have finished that ball himself if he didn't get tackled by the Juventus player who then scored that own goal.

It was a game that I thought Inter could play more dominantly, but Juventus is getting back to strength more and more. It's tough to beat them, but the last two games may have been the preliminary decision in the race for the Scudetto. A loss and a draw for Juventus means  +4 points for Inter and a game in hand. I am not very optimistic that the league will become exciting again.
