Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[KTChampions]

I guess we are going to see many changes in Juventus soon and ene they are about to change their coach and use another coach instead of Algerri for the next season. Also even Toni Kroos is linked to this team. Toni Kroos had a good performance during the time when he was playing for Real Madrid but he is getting old and that's why he is going to be far from the first selection of this team which can make him to think about the offer from Juventus.

https://onefootball.com/en/news/real-madrid-veteran-toni-kroos-mulling-over-two-key-decisions-but-juventus-ruled-out-39013063

But this article refutes this possibility:

Kroos has openly talked about retirement, and has made it clear he does not want to extend his career longer than necessary, and does want to go out on top. Relevo say he is keen to avoid a season like Luka Modric is currently having, coming in and out of the side.

It was reported in Italy that Juventus would offer him a chance to continue his career if he did not extend with Los Blancos, but that option is discarded: Kroos wants to retire at Real Madrid.

Kroos doesn't want to be a dinosaur like Modric 
As I understand it, there are two key moments for him: the first is the European Championship 2024. If Germany performs well there, then perhaps Kroos will end his career not only in the German national team but also in football in general. The second point is whether Mbappe will come to Real Madrid or not. If he arrives, then the whole scheme of the game will be seriously changed, since Mbappe likes to play lower than the center forward, Ancelotti will have to somehow fit both Mbappe and Vinny on the field and it will be very crowded in the center of the field. Maybe Kroos will not want to be a substitute player in this scenario.

Inter will not play an easy match against Roma. However, this match is another opportunity for Inter to keep a big gap on Juventus in terms of points. If Juventus can keep Inter with a big margin in terms of points, then in this case Juventus will not be able to overtake Inter very easily and quickly. So this match is very important for Inter. Since Roma is a good team and they have good players, Inter should not be negligent in the match by taking it easy.

Inter Milan doesn't have to relax now even though they are starting to get ahead of Juventus, because opponents like AS Roma could also give Inter Milan difficulties or even have more interesting surprises for them. And on the one hand, AS Roma will also be quite happy if they are able to draw with Inter Milan at home because apart from being able to prevent Inter Milan from getting full points at the Stadio Olimpico. At least by sharing the points he saved face in front of the Roma supporters.

AS Roma could surprise Inter Milan in this meeting, they will act as hosts and in fact this will be a "proving" match for De Rossi. Because in some of their early matches they always faced weaker clubs, indeed they could win but that was not enough because in strength they deserved to win.
Now in this match they have an opponent who is really worthy and very strong, so this is a match that must be maximized to make the supporters believe in De Rossi more. In terms of opportunities Inter Milan are clearly very favored, but that does not mean they will be very easy to beat AS Roma, they also have to keep working hard.

[nurilham]

Inter won and the Scudetto in now almost won.
They are the better team in Serie A and only a disaster can happen for the until the end of the season.

Yes. You deserve to claim it after Inter Milan defeated Juventus yesterday. Inter Milan is leading with 4 points and it will be 7 points soon because Inter Milan still has 1 unplayed match. It seems very difficult for Juventus to catch Inter Milan at the top of Serie A standings. Sure, Juventus only expect to see the miracle to win the title. It makes sense because Inter Milan looks stronger toward the end of the season.

I guess we are going to see many changes in Juventus soon and ene they are about to change their coach and use another coach instead of Algerri for the next season. Also even Toni Kroos is linked to this team. Toni Kroos had a good performance during the time when he was playing for Real Madrid but he is getting old and that's why he is going to be far from the first selection of this team which can make him to think about the offer from Juventus.

Juventus may change their coach, I hope Conte will be back to Juventus for the next season. Although Alegri can make Juventus to finish as the runner up, I assume Juventus management will keep firing him and change with a new coach.

It is a great addition if Juventus succeed to sign Kroos. He is still one of best midfielders although he is getting old. Having Kroos in Juventus lineup will surely strengthen them.

Inter Milan is now on track to win the Scudetto this season; they have scored a few noteworthy points; everything they have to accomplish now is keep pushing for higher standards to be reached this season. Juventus is trailing Inter Milan, and Massimiliano Allegri has missed the possibilities to keep the same points as his competitor; yet, there is still an opportunity of meeting him up. Inter Milan is not going to back down regarding their performance; no matter who they face next, Simeone Inzaghi will always use his finest abilities against these opponents.

Yes, Inter certainly won't be that relaxed even though they are ahead of Juventus and rather than getting bad results, it would be better for them to maximize the available moment to widen the gap from Juventus again. Because basically this competition is not over and everything depends on the consistency of a team. Roma can always be relied on when it comes to big matches like this and their prestige is also very high against Inter. A draw or loss will mean Inter can be overtaken by Juventus again.

[nimethasa]

However, I am really doubtful about chance of AS Roma against Inter Milan. Even with Mourinho and his priority on defense, they did not have good results against Inter Milan. With De Rossi, who is keen on ball possession and attacking, Roma will give Inter Milan more chances to exploit their defense and can face with a loss, even big loss.

I am pretty sure Roma will lose this game but I don't think the goals difference between the two will be big. Maybe 2 goals difference at best if Roma let Inter Milan exploit their defence line as they want.
I think De Rossi priority in this game will be to keep the defence line strong and count on counter attack in order to get a draw or in the worst scenario lose by a goal. There won't be many critics to lose in front of Inter Milan but certainly not with a humiliating result!

after three wins against weak opponents. this is a new opponent that is really the first trial of whether de rossi will succeed in winning. but of course the favored in the betting market in this match is clearly inter Milan even though Roma is playing at home. just draw a good result for de rossi.

[TopT3ns]

Daniele De Rossi is in happy ending days because he is playing successful matches with Roma. He should feel comfortable about that. Even if Inter loses in the match, he will not receive criticism because Inter is perfect in every sense this year. Roma will try to get 3 points against Inter's good form, but it is very difficult to achieve this. Still, two fit teams will meet. I hope Roma wins and excitement comes to the league.

With the presence of De Rossi, this should be a good opportunity to get back up. In fact, to get a win, what is needed is good teamwork, and of course those on the field must follow De Rossi's instructions so that the match will be easy to win. But if there is no teamwork, If the players don't follow the instructions well, it will be difficult for Roma to win. At least Roma is in the top five at the top of the standings and is still trying to keep winning in every match to get into the top three.

Of course, De Rossi performance seems capable of bringing about better changes for Roma because he was successful in 3 matches by winning. The management has a lot of hopes for De Rossi and the most important thing is to break into the top 4 rankings. His expertise in managing tactics seems to be better understood by Roma players, making the players successful in improving their quality for the better. But Roma progress in Serie A will be challenged by Inter Milan in the 24th match and if Roma manages to beat Inter Milan, of course De Rossi performance will get praise because he managed to beat the strongest team in Serie A this season.

Even so, Roma target is to win game after game, for that they have to focus and not fall mentally when faced with a team that is stronger than them. This match will also be a stage for Lukaku because he previously defended Inter Milan but this season he will be an opponent for Inter Milan. So Lukaku ambition is definitely to score goals and lead Roma to win this match.

Inter cannot afford to become complacent, despite their current position ahead of Juventus in the standings, because the race for the title is far from over. They have to maximize any opportunity to widen the gap between themselves and Juventus, given the unpredictable nature of football and the potential for shifts in momentum. The upcoming matches against Roma require Inter to be at their best, because dropping points could indeed allow Juventus to close the gap or even overtake them in the standings, eventhough they still have one game in hand.

Roma's reputation for rising to the occasion in big matches adds another layer of challenge for Inter that implies the need for them to approach the game with a strong and focused mindset. Maintaining consistency and maximizing opportunities to accumulate points will be key for Inter as they seek to maintain their advantage over Juventus and ultimately secure the Serie A title. Each match presents a new challenge, and Inter must remain vigilant and determined in their pursuit of success.

[TelolettOm]

In fact, the odds for Roma are even higher, about 4.5, but even despite such a good start by De Rossi, Roma’s opponents were not very strong and Inter will be the first serious test for him. Roma's motivation is quite high, they are clearly targeting the top 4, and it is unacceptable for them to lose points, Napoli is too close, and at the same time Inter has a comfortable lead over Juventus, but this does not mean that Inter is ready to give up points in this match. If Roma could win, it would be a very important victory for De Rossi, but even a draw would be viewed positively.

In this close match it was quite tough for Inter when playing against Juventus, although finally they won it. and in the next matches, They will compete against AS Roma in Serie A, which incidentally is not a small club. Even though they may not be as strong and as great as Inter, Roma also has the motivation and strength of the squad which must be considered very carefully. And if Inter doesn't bring out the main squad, then this will be quite risky.

On the other hand, Inter will also have a match against Atletico Madrid in the UCL match. This will certainly be quite difficult for Inter. because after all Atletico Madrid is currently in very ready and good form. Even though Inter may be superior in several things, Atletico Madrid are quite troublesome and if they don't focus a little, they might miss their chance.

Milan Napoli and Roma Inter the 2 big games

At least Roma is in the top five at the top of the standings and is still trying to keep winning in every match to get into the top three.

De Rossi really brought big changes to Roma, because he was able to improve a bad situation and change Roma's formation so that they were able to achieve a landslide victory against Cagliari. This victory proves that De Rossi can be relied on by Roma to win again against Inter Milan in the next match, even though this match looks very tough for Roma, because Inter Milan has appeared very good and strong this season. However, I am sure that with the change in formation made by De Rossi like yesterday's match, Roma will definitely be able to provide excellent resistance on the field so they can win this match.

If Juventus can keep Inter with a big margin in terms of points, then in this case Juventus will not be able to overtake Inter very easily and quickly. So this match is very important for Inter.

come ooooooon, let's not exaggerate
as I have said in other contexts there is a huge difference between the two teams
- Inter's squad is much stronger
- the difference in goals scored is much higher
- Roma is a team in training, Inter is a team in the performing phase
there's no story

However, I am sure that with the change in formation made by De Rossi like yesterday's match, Roma will definitely be able to provide excellent resistance on the field so they can win this match.

If you believe AS Roma can win over Inter Milan then you should bet because Roma's odds on the money line are currently @ 4.20 betting $10 will give you a good profit, and if the indicator is that Roma managed to win three times in a row after De Rossi there is not the right indicator because the three wins were achieved by weak teams, even Juventus, which was predicted to overcome Inter Milan well, failed to do so, especially Roma, whose strength could be said to be below Juventus.
When playing against Inter Milan, they are not only facing a strong attacking system but also a solid defensive line, so Inter Milan is the most complete team for this season, especially since Inter Milan has the opportunity to be stronger in the standings if they win because they will be seven points ahead and that is enough to make Juventus difficult to catch up so Inter Milan won't waste this opportunity, the best result Roma can achieve in this match is a draw but I'm quite doubtful that will happen, but this is not to demean Roma because surprises may occur but unfortunately this season Inter Milan is a team that is much more consistent than last season so all teams have difficulty beating them.

I guess we are going to see many changes in Juventus soon and ene they are about to change their coach and use another coach instead of Algerri for the next season. Also even Toni Kroos is linked to this team. Toni Kroos had a good performance during the time when he was playing for Real Madrid but he is getting old and that's why he is going to be far from the first selection of this team which can make him to think about the offer from Juventus.

https://onefootball.com/en/news/real-madrid-veteran-toni-kroos-mulling-over-two-key-decisions-but-juventus-ruled-out-39013063

Real Madrid seem like they want to make the squad younger by signing quite talented players these days. However they are still caring about keeping useful experienced players in the squad as well. Otherwise Modric would have already been sent from the team. Therefore I think Kroos could still be offered a contract extension and I assume he would accept it. But let's see if they will prove me wrong about Kroos.  

In case Kroos leaves at the end of the season maybe we could see him going to Saudi Arabia. I assume there would be an offer by a team there as well in the summer.

Winning against a relegated team does not prove that Roma is better in De Rossi hands, even when Mourinho coached Roma, they never lost when facing a relegated team in the Italian league, so why do you think De Rossi has done a better job than Mourinho?
so far, I personally contrary to your thoughts because so far I haven't seen anything different from Roma, we are all really looking forward to Roma match against Inter later, apart from being a fairly classic match, this match could also be an opportunity for Inter to get closer to the Scudetto, Apart from that, I'm pretty sure there are many members here and also Roma fans who want to see how ready and good Roma are when facing a team as big and strong as Inter Milan, if Roma wins against Inter of course  I will take my hat off to De Rossi.

Real Madrid are currently in the process of transitioning away from senior players and replacing them with young players. That process is going well and it's not complete, because players like Kross and Modric, for example, are still very much needed and it's a very good mix for now.
I don't know if Real Madrid will be so quick to drop the senior names in the line-up next season or not, because until now they are also still comfortable to continue rotating cooperation, especialy in midfield. Real Madrid's main focus is in midfield, and it just so happens that the two players I mentioned also operate in midfield.

De Rossi really brought big changes to Roma, because he was able to improve a bad situation and change Roma's formation so that they were able to achieve a landslide victory against Cagliari.

Although good, but I personally can not make an easy match for AS Roma as one of the measures. I mean we can really see how good they are when AS Roma face strong teams, and I think this week we can see how AS Roma look under De Rossi's direction. Inter Milan will be their opponents this week and it certainly won't be easy for them. I think their performances in previous weeks will be forgotten when looking at this match, whether they played well or badly.

Real Madrid have been doing this for several seasons, they have combined young and senior players in the team to create regeneration and it has been quite successful so far and the reason for keeping Modric and Kroos is very appropriate to guide the young players.
As for Kroos, his quality is still quite good even though he has a little difficulty playing regularly due to his age, but I think he really deserves to be given a new contract and I'm sure Real Madrid will do that, unless there is no longer any desire. from Kroos to play at the highest level of football.
Age is very influential for a football player and when a footballer is no longer young it is quite difficult to predict his desires.
And going to Juventus is very unlikely in my opinion.

I agree that Real Madrid seems to be blending youth with experience. Modric's presence proves that strategy. Kroos, like Modric, is valuable on the field and in teaching new players. This mix of youth and experience has kept Real Madrid competitive on all fronts.

Kroos' possible move to Saudi Arabia raises concerns. While I understand the logic, given the trend of attractive offers luring big names, I think Kroos still has something to offer at the highest levels in Europe. You mentioned his possible exit, but I think Real Madrid and Kroos might agree on a new contract. Not just on the pitch, his leadership and knowledge are crucial, especially in developing future stars.
