Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Ryu_Ar1]

Francesco Calzona had a tough job and indeed he made a brilliant debut in the Champions League. Holding Barcelona to a draw in the first leg of the round of 16 was not easy for Francesco Calzona, of course because of the differences in quality and strategy between the two teams. Barcelona dominated attacks, while Napoli only focused on defending while taking advantage of Barcelona's mistakes.

Even though it was a pretty good debut for a new coach who was under great pressure but on the other hand it still hasn't proven anything so far for Napoli because in the early matches a good start can be a good thing but on the other hand their performance is also decisive in this regard and in the Barcelona match against Napoli it seems that we are aware that Napoli's situation is still not going very well which could have been in several other matches when the great pressure owned by Calzona actually took Napoli in a worse direction.

Currently, Napoli has fired 2 coaches and this is actually a very bad thing because after all, we realize that the more often Napoli sacks its coach, the more often the players will face a new adaptation which will have an impact on the performance they always play.

While there were bad results, Napoli changed the coach in order not to get worse. Of course, it would have been better if he had not changed it, but we do not know the results of the matches that will be played. Maybe if the coach had not changed, worse results would have been achieved. That's why they wanted to evaluate this possibility, I congratulate them on this. Actually, I think they did the right thing.

The newly elected headcoach of the Parthenopeans, Francesco Calzona will try his best inother not to follow the footsteps of other sacked managers, he should be extremely careful because if he's not progressive in matches, eyes from the board and the desperate president will be on him full-time. Napoli have been sacking and appointing new coach this season and there's no improvement with the team's stats till this very present period. I think Napoli president, Aurelio De Laurentiis should focused more of his time on the players and leave the coaches out of the picture. He should also learn to exercise patience with these newly appointed coaches, because if he continues to sack, there will be nothing left for the club.

Three of the biggest (historically) teams in the Serie A will be back at the top again, and they are doing something great as well. Inter has been great so far this season and last year they were the UCL finalist, and Juventus has been going through some tough time and with the punishment last year and all, they had some issues.

Milan is the only one and I am assuming that they will change the manager and a few players and be better again as well. I think when you think about it, we are going to see these three do very well at UCL next season for sure. I do not care who will be the fourth, Atalanta could be the one, but I think it's quite obvious that we are going to see these top three teams do very well next season.

Inter Milan is much stronger this season because their squad has really been well organized in every aspect. the fact is that inter milan defense has been very strong this season they had no problems when onana left and they got the right replacement. Apart from that, Inter Milan attack line is so strong because Thuram presence has made their front line even more aggressive this season. Inter Milan have only suffered one defeat this season and then they appeared impressive by picking up points in every match they played.

Several previous seasons, Inter Milan was hit by a financial crisis, making it very difficult for them to make many changes. But if they succeed this season in becoming champions, of course their finances will improve and they will be ready to maintain their strength and become stronger by recruiting quality players in the coming season.

In my opinion, sacking Napoli's coach at the moment would hurt Napoli a lot. Napoli should not have made such a decision at the end of the season. It takes some time for a new coach to take control of the team. In the mean time, Napoli's title race this season could go from bad to worse. Even though Napoli are not in a good position in the serie A points table, I think Napoli can slowly go further down due to the sacking of the coach this time. Now it remains to be seen how far Napoli can go with the new coach.

Torino vs Lazio

Victory for Lazio

Lazio was able to take the lead from Torino in the second half, after the first half, the game was quite boring. However, in the second half, Lazio was able to optimize their dominance to attack and score 2 goals. but the problem was that they got a red card in the 79th minute. So this is quite worrying. However, fortunately this was Torino, and Torino was apparently unable to optimize their chances against 10 players well enough. It was proven that until the match was over, Torino was not even able to score 1 goal. This victory for Lazio brought them closer to 6th place with a very competitive points gap with Roma.

I expected it to be a boring match. Even though some parts were boring, it wasn't bad when Lazio was playing actively. The first half was especially bad, there was no game like that at all. Lazio started the second half well and took advantage of their first chance, scoring the Guendoizi goal.

Shortly after, Lazio scored the second goal and made the match a little more comfortable for themselves. There was also a red card, but it did not change the situation much.

Napoli really had to do that because coach Walter Mazzarri's performance was not good and did not give Napoli a win. The desired coach should have experience in the world of football and understand the strategies that must be given to help the players on the field get a win, which is definitely a relationship between The players and coaches must be well looked after; that is one of the keys to victory for football coaches.

Now it remains to be seen how far Napoli can go with the new coach.

Napoli seems to have been very hasty in making a decision to change their coach since Spaletti left Napoli. Yes, they seem to have lost their direction and lack confidence in the abilities of the coach they choose. The problem is why did they take a coach who has no experience in a league like this, even if they change coaches several times, the results will probably still be the same. Let this season end with results like this, it even looks like they will fail even if they only get to the Europe League. Especially next season, there are already several clubs who want to bring in their players, making it possible for Napoli to become even worse if they don't do something even more extraordinary.

Shortly after, Lazio scored the second goal and made the match a little more comfortable for themselves. There was also a red card, but it did not change the situation much.

Lazio managed to break their bad trend in Serie A because in the previous match they lost and in today's match they managed to steal 3 points at home to Torino. Lazio's game was not very good in today's match but that is not a benchmark because they managed to get 3 points. It is natural to see them defend more in today's match because they need to concentrate to make it difficult for their opponents when they counterattack. I think this victory is quite important for Lazio because for now the teams from the top 3 to 7th place have a point difference that is not too far, so Lazio opens up their hopes of getting into the big top in the upcoming matches.

Unfortunately for Torino in today's match because they were able to shoot a lot of shots but couldn't score a goal in this match. They need to improve the quality of their front lines, especially their attackers, to be able to take advantage of existing opportunities to score goals. Torino's chances were quite big in this match because in the 79th minute Lazio had to play with 10 players after Gila received a red card. But Torino couldn't improve their game for the better when they were superior in numbers player.

Lazio played very well against Victory but one of their players played with too much excitement and in addition to getting a yellow card he also got a red card even though he won the match it had a negative effect on their reputation. Mario Gila played a lot of fouls today.  But one positive for Lazio is that they are almost level with Roma on points. there is only 1 point gap between them. Accordingly, Lazio's position can be said to be very good. they are playing well but even if they can overtake Roma on points, they don't seem capable of overtaking Bologna.

Lazio struggled to beat Torino in a boring match but they achieved three points from Torino with a home-away match. Torino failed to score even one goal at home and accepted a 4 points difference than Lazio. Before this match, two clubs have nearly same total points but the gap becomes bigger after the final whistle.

Lazio surely are happy with this result but their target will not only a six position but will be a higher one. It will be a fourth position that is eligible to participate in Champions League which means more money for their club.

This win helps Lazio to have only one point less than AS Roma and they are both racing with two above clubs Atalanta and Bologna in order to take a last position in top four. They also can aim at a fifth position with hope that Italian clubs will have good results in three UEFA leagues (Champions League, Europa League and Conference League) in this season, to help the league receives 5 spots for Champions League 2024 - 2025.

Apart from that, another competition that Juventus is participating in this season is the Coppa Italia. And the closest schedule for Juventus to play in the Coppa Italia is next April, where Juventus is scheduled to play against Lazio in the first leg of the semifinals.

I think the Coppa Italia is the last chance for Juventus if they want to win the title this season, they should be more focused on this title race, because they are only facing Lazio which is quite even with their current strength, Juventus should be able to beat Lazio in the semi-final match later and advance to the final to win the title in the Coppa Italia this season, I am sure that Juventus can beat Lazio with high self-confidence, which will enable Juventus to play better against Lazio.

Yep, that's right, it's natural that Juventus can beat Lazio in the Coppa Italia later. Because if you look at the quality of the players, Juventus is indeed superior to Lazio. Apart from that, Lazio will certainly not focus too much on the Coppa Italia, because unlike Juventus, Lazio is currently competing in the Champions League. So by dividing the focus of the Lazio players, the potential for Juventus to win the match in the Coppa Italia will be even greater.
So in the Coppa Italia I am very confident that Juventus will definitely be able to advance to the final round.
But even so, if you look at Lazio's journey in the Champions League, the results are also quite good. The reason is that in the last 16 of the Champions League when they faced Bayern Munich, Lazio managed to win the match in the first leg. So Lazio's performance in the Champions League could be said to be quite good. Because the opponent he faced in the last 16 of the Champions League was a very strong team from the Bundesliga (2nd place in the standings)

For this reason, Juventus must also remain vigilant and not relax the performance of its players. Because as far as I know, the Coppa Italia is Juventus' only hope of winning a trophy this season. So basically the Juventus players must be able to take advantage of the free time they currently have to be able to perform satisfactorily in the Coppa Italia later.

Bologna vs Verona

Few weeks ago Bologna was suffering several loses which make their position was out from European zone but recently Bologna can able to bounce back and they gets 4 winning streak in Serie A and so far until week 25 Bologna has been gets 12 wins and 10 of them is came from home matches so this proven Bologna has been very strong during playing at their home ground and Bologna even has same points to Atalanta 45 points and their chances to playing at european competitions is very wide open and for their opponent Verona  so far during this season Verona has gets 13 loses and 9 of them were happened from away matches so these records is proven Verona really have serious problem during playing away

Verona currently still struggling to avoiding relegation zone but it could be very hard for them to survive in Serie A because Verona still unable to showing their consistency and for Bologna just like i said before they now has been turn out became an dark horses team who potentially can broke the domination of big teams for Champion League spots and today all of Bologna main players will be available to play because so far they are in the good fitness and regarding the outcomes of this match i am very confident Bologna can beat Verona today and collect 3 points from this match but about betting options the bookmakers only give low odds for Bologna @1.55

Before him the entire team has been bad and it was also the heads in the club that cost it.why bring a poor manager from the start. It was just like a relay race for Napoli, the very first person to lead the chase stumped along the line so it affected the entire general team performance.
Napoli position also not encouraging at all these days they are just playing most of their best players would be sold out of the club for good fortunes so they can get new and fresh players.
I will blame Rudi Garcia not Walter because the damage already been done.

Napoli seems to have been very hasty in making a decision to change their coach since Spaletti left Napoli. Yes, they seem to have lost their direction and lack confidence in the abilities of the coach they choose. The problem is why did they take a coach who has no experience in a league like this, even if they change coaches several times, the results will probably still be the same.

Especially next season, there are already several clubs who want to bring in their players, making it possible for Napoli to become even worse if they don't do something even more extraordinary.

So true. The impact of Spalletti's resignation as Napoli coach has been felt since the start of the season. Last season Napoli were strong in Serie A but now their play is very bad and now tends to be slow, the tempo has dropped. Changing Napoli coaches several times also failed to improve Napoli's performance, in fact it got worse. It could be said that the recent change of coaches at Napoli was caused by panic among the club owners who wanted their performance to improve quickly and were too hasty in firing the coach. Now with coach Calzona hoping that Napoli will improve soon, the draw with Barcelona in the UCL league is a good start to recover in the next match against Cagliari in order to improve its ranking in the Serie A standings.

Lazio always try to play well but they have never been lucky enough to win the championship. they may be in the Top 10 in the points table often but the trophy is not possible for them. Bologna is not a potential team.  Lazio's players are very aggressive so they commit a lot of fouls.  In yesterday's match, where Mario Gila was cautioned once with a yellow card, he again committed a major foul, which resulted in him being red carded and will not play in the next matches.

It was a tough match in the first half, because the two team where using the same tactics to play each other that made the two teams to find it difficult to score goals in the 45 minutes, but it was a surprised moved in the second half when Lazio manager introduced another tactics to his players that gave his players the opportunity to scored two goals to defeated Torino 0-2 to achieved three points from the match. Torino strikers was lacking ball supply in the front and their midfield was very weak to make ball available for their strikers to score goals but that opportunity was not there through out the match. I think, Lazio will still move higher above that 7 position they are now in the Italian league competition table because they have more strength to continue displaying to get a good results before the end of this tournament.

To be honest in the Lazio vs torino game, Torino was much better in terms of opportunity creation and ball dominance, but unfortunately they could not maximize the opportunities available to create goals in the first and second half, on the other hand Lazio even with a few opportunities he managed to get a good mimentum and produce goals to mark their victory and break the bad trend, but it is also quite unfortunate that M.Gila had to be red carded, while Torino's defense received a lot of yellow cards, which was a sign that their emotions were unstable and became a weakness in Torino's defense that made them lose.

I love watching games that comes with suspense actions. Torino surpasses Lazio with everything on the stats, ball possession, shots, passes and corners kicks. But they just got unlucky when playing against Lazio that humbled them. None of the host fans believe they could lose against the visitors when everyone thought the worst to happen will be draw tie. How does it feel for the hosts to lose at home and gaining no dominance ground to net just a goal. This is really a terrible result on the end of Torino but they will strive better in next game. Lazio dealt with Torino with 2 nil victory.

Lazio does these things, a truly strange team.
The position in the standings reflects this inconsistency, because in the end as a team they are also quite strong.
You should never underestimate her as an opponent since she can have that sprint that can hurt you and can cause you to lose points.
