Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Jatiluhung]

It looks like Roma is lucky to have a new coach like De Rossi. Just look at how Roma destroyed their opponents in the Europa League with a fairly large score of 4-0. And the opponents they face are not easy opponents either. Because Brighton is one of the clubs that is quite respected in the Premier League, even though this season Brighton has experienced a decline in performance. But still scoring 4 goals against Brighton is not an easy thing. But I'm also not surprised by AS Roma's win. Because they are also the hosts of the match. It's just that the number of goals scored far exceeded my expectations. Brighton seems to be having a bad season this time. This is different from their performance last season which was much more reliable.

You are right that AS Roma are lucky to have signed De Rossi. but for De Rossi he is also lucky to have the opportunity to become coach of AS Roma replacing Mourinho. And De Rossi was also lucky because he was able to make AS Roma improve quite rapidly, both in Serie A and in the European League. This will also put De Rossi's reputation as a young coach in the spotlight of other big clubs in Europe. In essence, Roma and De Rossi will have good luck together if they continue their good results this season.

I personally didn't think Brighton could lose so easily to AS Roma. However, this shows that the quality of the clubs in Serie A cannot be underestimated. either in the European League or in the Champions League.

De Rossi came and unlocked Roma players' potential attacking power. He actually changed the tactics and let the team play more attacking that is very understandable as De Rossi used to play for Roma many years with beauty football even he was a central defensive midfielder.

Times with Totti, Montella, Taddei, Vucinic, Mancini and coaches that let them played one of most beautiful football in Serie A. They just lacked of luckiness to win Scudetto over years since 2000 - 2001 season. Hopefully De Rossi will have some happy achievement with Roma in this season like ending Serie A in top four and winning Europa League. He has never won any title in Europe with Roma as a player so it is good if he does it with Roma as a coach.

I personally didn't think Brighton could lose so easily to AS Roma. However, this shows that the quality of the clubs in Serie A cannot be underestimated. either in the European League or in the Champions League.

I did not expect it too but Brighton in this match, shown that they were weak mentally. Their players from goalkeeper to defenders made many mistakes and luckily for them, Roma players did not take advantage all mistakes from Brighton players to score more goals.

Yes I also think Roma did really well by beating Brighton 4-0 in the Europa League. De Rossi seems to be doing a good job as the new coach. But we should remember that the game was played at Roma home stadium which might have helped them may be. By the way their performance was also good. Brighton hasn't been doing well this season so the result wasn't a big surprise. I'm curious to see how Roma will do in their upcoming games with De Rossi  coaching.

Napoli are now showing signs of consistency under new manager Francesco Calzona, the win over Juventus was the highlight of their best performance so far. Because Lazio and Fiorentina dropping points, Napoli managed to temporarily climb to 7th place in the standings, 8 points adrift of Bologna who occupy the last zone in the Champions League. Previously, many thought that Napoli would suffer another defeat when facing Juventus, but the opposite happened and they managed to get an additional three points. Napoli opportunity to break into the top four is still open, but they must be able to secure full points in the remaining matches ahead.

~Snip

Yes, after Napoli changed coaches, their playing style was very different and much better than when coached by the previous coach. Perhaps the reason that throughout this season the results obtained by Napoli have always been less than optimal, the main factor seems to be due to the tactics and strategies of the previous coach which did not suit the playing style of the Napoli players. Because the proof is that now their tactics and strategy have been changed by the new coach, Napoli are starting to get back up and are ready to compete for tickets to enter the Champions League. Apart from that, in the Champions League which is currently underway, Napoli will face Barcelona in the second leg of the round of 16. With an aggregate of 1-1, I think Napoli have high hopes of beating Barcelona and getting into the last 8 of the Champions League.

Apart from that, tomorrow Napoli will face Torino in Serie A. Maybe in this match Napoli can avenge their defeat in the previous match. The reason is that in the previous meeting, Napoli was soundly defeated by Torino with a score of 3-0. So with Napoli's epic return to form, I am sure that Napoli will be able to beat Torino in tomorrow's match.

Maybe if Francesco Calzona took charge of Napoli earlier then Napoli might not be in such a bad ranking as they are now. But the opportunity to improve the ranking is still open. Even though there aren't many games left this season. But I am sure that with their current coach, Francesco Calzona, Napoli will be able to at least finish in 5th place. But to get to the top 4 I think that is almost impossible. Because there is a fairly large difference in points. or maybe napoli can work hard in the UCL. even though the opponent they faced was a tough opponent. Because, up to now, Barcelona is still strong in the Laliga rankings. So in the second leg of the round of 16 in the UCL, we can be sure that Napoli will have quite a difficult time. Because after all, the position as the visiting team will be quite tough.

Management was too pushy so they appointed the wrong coach and the change in coach that was made previously really didn't have any effect and Napoli's performance actually declined compared to last season. After Francesco Calzona took over as coach, Napoli's performance improved, where they managed to hold Barcelona to a draw in the Champions League and beat Juventus in Serie A. Napoli's performance improved after being coached by Francesco Calzona and their playing style became more coordinated because he combined attack and defense quite consistently.

Now Francesco Calzona's tough task is to beat Barcelona in the second leg and even though it looks a little difficult, that doesn't mean they can't do it. The reason is that Barcelona is also in an unstable condition and Napoli still has a big chance of qualifying for the next round when they face Barcelona at Camp Nou.

[tusandii]

Napoli's recent results (two wins in five matches) gives me hope, despite their uphill quest to climb into the top 4. The 8-point margin from Bologna is frightening, and beating Atalanta and Roma won't be easy. The win over Juventus is a huge morale boost. I think Napoli's season might start with this win. Napoli can prove their resilience in the tough match against Torino. I'm confident Coach Calzna can handle this difficult period tactically. If Napoli can qualify for Europe by season's end, it would be a big turnaround from their slow start

Napoli success win two consecutive matches against Sassoulo and Juventus last match, its good start for Napoli returning back to the top fourth position standing behind 8 points left to catch up Bologna on 4th position standings. I don't think close the opportunity of Napoli to raise top fourth position standings if can consistent performance on several matches left.
Next match against Torino should not problem to make new winning trend become three consecutives matches, but Napoli will face two difficult match after facing Torino with second leg match against Barcelona on Champion League and later face Inter Milan with solid performance without losing points in last several matches.

Napoli should secure their three points when facing Inter Milan upcoming two week later, its very crucial if can bet Inter will make the opponent face in several matches left.

Yes, maybe these 2 wins make everyone believe that Napoli has returned to trying to be consistent, but I don't believe that Napoli will return to having stable performance because if you say this is a good start, but for me this is the start of a bad thing for bettors at the moment. looks very strong but against Torino it only ends in a draw or even a loss.
As long as Napoli can't get consistent wins like last season I will never believe in Napoli or even shifting Bologna's position seems very difficult because Bologna's performance is much more consistent and on the other hand Napoli will have the pressure of competing against Barcelona in the CL competition and also the pressure of the match. against Inter Milan.

Napoli at the moment is really very bad in terms of the quality of their performance which is uncertain and I will not give an excuse which I often repeat that it is the management that has this mistake and there is no other choice but to just perform as hard as possible to survive and try to get the best results even though it will end in bad position but there is a chance next season to get the right coach and without firing him.
To compete with any club Napoli is very difficult to predict and the right choice is simply to avoid betting on every Napoli match before giving a more consistent performance.

[klidex]

I think the last spot of top four will belong to Bologna or Roma at the end of the season. Which one do you think will be able to make it? 

Both of them have been on a really good run firstly. Especially Bologna haven't lost any point for six weeks. However they are going to play against Inter in two days which shows they could be in serious trouble. But actually Bologna could still have a chance to collect at least one point. Because Inter have their rematch in the Champions League four days after this game. A rotation is possible to be seen because of that. Meanwhile I think Atalanta's job against Juventus is quite difficult and they could lose. 

As Roma, Atalanta, Napoli, Fiorentina and Lazio are not so far from themselves you see, it's still open and available for those clubs who definitely works hard so they could finish up. I would love a chance for Bologna honestly but it seems like Napoli would come in with a lot of wave to snatch the too four.
Failure to qualify for the Champions League Competition would be a direct passage for players in Napoli to finally leave.

Same goes with Juventus and Ac Milan as they're not so far apart from themselves both. Juventus indeed would want to replace Max Allegri for he has also contributions related to the success of the Old Ladies ( Juventus )
Atalanta also should let go of their head coach finally. He has been in charger for more than four years but yet again, no much lucks for em.

Yes, the clubs you mentioned above still have an open opportunity to occupy the top 4 positions, but if you look at the consistency aspect, Bologna has played quite consistently in their last few matches, while the clubs you mentioned are not so consistent so far so they are not yet completely convincing, but what is clearly starting to rise is Napoli, they are slowly starting to show progress in the last few matches so that their ranking is increasing and is currently in 7th position and the difference in points with 4th place is 8 points but in my opinion the points are big enough to pass if Bologna did not experience defeat in the next matches.

Juventus and Milan are both fighting for second place, who knows who will end up occupying it at the end of the season because Juventus' performance has recently declined, yes, it seems that Juventus really needs to improve this by changing their current coach because the coach is the one who has full responsibility in building a club while Juventus had a big chance to win the title but Massimiliano Allegri failed to make Juventus players play optimally.

[BlackBoss_]

Yes, maybe these 2 wins make everyone believe that Napoli has returned to trying to be consistent, but I don't believe that Napoli will return to having stable performance because if you say this is a good start, but for me this is the start of a bad thing for bettors at the moment. looks very strong but against Torino it only ends in a draw or even a loss.

It can be their start of recovery and run faster to try participating in top four which currently is far of their hands. Though it is not easy to catch other above clubs but Napoli are on a good form to fight for that target.

Beating Juventus is a very strong performance of Napoli to strengthen their confidence for coming matches. Juventus don't have good form but beating The Old Lay in Serie A is never easy.

As long as Napoli can't get consistent wins like last season I will never believe in Napoli or even shifting Bologna's position seems very difficult because Bologna's performance is much more consistent and on the other hand Napoli will have the pressure of competing against Barcelona in the CL competition and also the pressure of the match. against Inter Milan.

Bologna don't have experience to compete for top four position and potentially they will have problems to maintain their good performance in future. It will give chances to Napoli and some other clubs like Roma, Atalanta. Napoli can not control how Bologna play but they can control their performances. It is what they must focus on first and wait for green light from Bologna, Roma and Atalanta.

It looks like Roma is lucky to have a new coach like De Rossi. Just look at how Roma destroyed their opponents in the Europa League with a fairly large score of 4-0. And the opponents they face are not easy opponents either. Because Brighton is one of the clubs that is quite respected in the Premier League, even though this season Brighton has experienced a decline in performance. But still scoring 4 goals against Brighton is not an easy thing. But I'm also not surprised by AS Roma's win. Because they are also the hosts of the match. It's just that the number of goals scored far exceeded my expectations. Brighton seems to be having a bad season this time. This is different from their performance last season which was much more reliable.

Yes I also think Roma did really well by beating Brighton 4-0 in the Europa League. De Rossi seems to be doing a good job as the new coach. But we should remember that the game was played at Roma home stadium which might have helped them may be. By the way their performance was also good. Brighton hasn't been doing well this season so the result wasn't a big surprise. I'm curious to see how Roma will do in their upcoming games with De Rossi  coaching.

So far De Rossi has shown good progress since he became coach of AS Roma, there is nothing special about what he has shown, but slowly he is able to show a good game and that prioritizes teamwork, for me this is something that is important good for a team because the main thing you must have is good teamwork. If I'm not mistaken, they have only lost once while being managed by De Rossi and that was against Inter Milan, I can say that is a natural thing because the team that beat them is the best team currently in Serie A.
He is showing good things, but I still want to see whether he will be able to consistently maintain his performance with AS Roma, or whether this is only happening at the beginning. I don't mean to underestimate him, but learning from experience I have seen many coaches who were only good at the beginning but then they became coaches who couldn't be any better after gaining more trust from management. He has to prove that he is not only good at the start, but he can bring AS Roma to an even better level of consistency.

It will give chances to Napoli and some other clubs like Roma, Atalanta. Napoli can not control how Bologna play but they can control their performances. It is what they must focus on first and wait for green light from Bologna, Roma and Atalanta.

Don't underestimate underdog teams like Bologna, however, football can still give surprises, even teams with no experience can still compete there if their performance is impressive and that's what Bologna is doing now, they are performing impressively and consistently so they managed to occupy fourth place even though they still have a long way to go. long and AS Roma and Atalanta still have a chance to take that position but Bologna also still has a chance to maintain their strength and for Napoli I don't know whether next season they can compete again in the UCL because their performance is not so stable.

The reason is that Barcelona is also in an unstable condition and Napoli still has a big chance of qualifying for the next round when they face Barcelona at Camp Nou.

I'm still yet to say that Napoli are back to form because these wins were not supposed to be a determination of their return. We need to see more winnings from them. However, if you compare Napoli's performance with their last season's performance, they still have a lot to do. However, I am not sure if they will even take over Bologna's position in the standings because Bologna are doing better than Napoli, in my opinion, so for them, change coaches. Although their former coach needs a replacement, beating Juventus and playing a draw with Barcelona should not determine their performance yet. Let us wait and see if they will continue this way. because, if we should say, they are back to form now and later disappoint it somehow.

Although Bologna is a small team, Bologna has an extremely successful season with 4th place on the Serie A rankings. Bologna showed their bravery in a decisive match to the top 4 race against Atalanta, They had an impressive comeback to help them take 4th place. The upcoming challenge for Bologna is extremely difficult when they face the strongest team this season, Inter. The gap with the chasing group is 4 points. Roma and Napoli are two clubs that will likely surpass Bologna to take 4th place. Because both have just replaced the coach, those coaches are bringing a new source of wind to the club, which is gradually stabilizing. Don't forget last season, Napoli was the defending champions. Although this year they cannot keep the Scudetto. But Napoli will have to make a lot of effort to reach the top 4.

The most interest match for the upcoming match day guys.

Intermilan will face bologna which is still on fire. This is gonna be the biggest obtacle for intermilan this week. Even though intermilan was still consistently winning the game till this time but it's still remain unbeatable. Bologna came with very good head to head against intermilan

This is head to head between inter and bologna

1-12-2023 Inter 1-2 Bologna (Coppa Italia)
07-10-2023 Inter 2-2 Bologna (Serie A)
26-02-2023 Bologna 1-0 Inter (Serie A)
10-11-2022 Inter 6-1 Bologna (Serie A)
28-04-2022 Bologna 2-1 Inter (Serie A).

From the data above, we can draw a conclusion that Bologna was very often giving tough games against Intermilan. I'm feeling so skeptical about the performance from Intermilan, which caused Bolgona to win three times from the 5 matches  last head-to-head against Intermilan.

Here's the odds for the upcoming games



Bologna has very good odds in this match. The club is on fire, and playing at home has become a perfect combination to take the risk. 3.50 is very good odds for Bologna. Intermilan was always struggling to beat Bologna, and this could be a good reason to pick Bologna in this game.
Intermilan must be careful even though it's still at the peak performance but i think that intermilan can also to lose against girona.

Intermilan's odds is quite good but since it was playing away and intermilan didn't have good result against bologna and this makes club a bit risky to bet. Intermilan got 2.19

Bologna don't have experience to compete for top four position and potentially they will have problems to maintain their good performance in future. It will give chances to Napoli and some other clubs like Roma, Atalanta. Napoli can not control how Bologna play but they can control their performances. It is what they must focus on first and wait for green light from Bologna, Roma and Atalanta.

Yes what you said is true because so far we know Bologna as a mid-table team and even they are more often at the bottom of the table so far, but it is surprising for us if Bologna this season has broken the competition to go to European competition next season, I think the consistency possessed by Bologna at this time deserves to be praised because with only modest players it was able to make a big team this season get defeated, even Intermilan, which is quite spectacular this season, had to get a defeat from Bologna when playing in the Coppa Italia.

I think with the consistency that Bologna has at this time it is not appropriate for us to underestimate Bologna, because if only later Bologna managed to give another defeat to Intermilan on Sunday then it is certain that Bologna is very worthy of consideration to get 1 ticket to the Champions League next season, besides that there is indeed competition from several rival teams but if we compare the performance of Bologna and their rival teams Bologna is still very good this moment, I think the match against Intermilan will be very decisive for Bologna in the fight for 1 place in the big four.

[Velvet78]

remember Atalanta is also there, don't forget that they're not far away, there's only one space and there are many contenders
it will be a particularly heated fight and they will all fight like lions, because going to the Champions League means prestige but it also means money from TV rights and happier fans

I forgot about Atalanta being only one point behind Roma yeah, you are right about it.    They also have a chance to go for top four despite its being a bit more difficult than the other teams mathematically.

But in these eleven weeks left in the season anything can happen really. Atalanta could also manage to close the gap of five points with Bologna. However I just don't like their performance recently. They lost eight points in their last three games. They could have technically been at the fourth place now. If they don't make improvement in their performance I'm afraid they will probably lose their chance earlier than Roma. 

[bering]

Francesco Calzona can make Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia has return to their shape because in the last 2 matches these players always scores goals even Osimhen was made a hattrick when Napoli beat Sassuolo so these statistics is proven Napoli players can restore their mentally after through an several times poor results and today Calzona was targetting win result from Torino because if Napoli win from Torino then this result can boosted their mentally because after this match Napoli will playing at Champion League against Barcelona

In the first meeting this season Napoli has been lost from Torino with huge scores 3-0 and i am sure Napoli want to taking revenge from this match besides that Napoli is really required more points to improved their position on league standings and to compete for Champion League spots and i think big possibility Napoli will be able to beat Torino today because although they still not fully consistent but Napoli performance under Calzona has showing slightly progress and about squad update i have seen Napoli squad and most of the players in the good fitness and ready to play for this match and Napoli win has good odds to bets @1.78

[Awaklara]

in my opinion, in all honesty and sincerity given the total crowding for the last place in the champions league I think it will be tough, we have Roma, Bologna and Atalanta, and they certainly have a better performance than Napoli
in my opinion Napoli can`t manage to be fourth

I also think about this, Roma and Bologna in terms of performance have better quality than Napoli, Napoli need to work hard to overthrow the position of the two teams and take fourth place, on the other hand I am sure Bologna will not quickly be complacent about fourth place what they get, they will fight hard to move up further or at least stay in their current standings

[Farma]

I forgot about Atalanta being only one point behind Roma yeah, you are right about it.    They also have a chance to go for top four despite its being a bit more difficult than the other teams mathematically.

But in these eleven weeks left in the season anything can happen really. Atalanta could also manage to close the gap of five points with Bologna. However I just don't like their performance recently. They lost eight points in their last three games. They could have technically been at the fourth place now. If they don't make improvement in their performance I'm afraid they will probably lose their chance earlier than Roma. 

That's the reason and we don't just look at the difference in points but also at the team's performance which makes it impossible to compete.
Atalanta continues to experience a decline in performance in the last few matches which has kept them further away from the top 4 positions.
I think the most likely ones to compete for the top 4 positions in the standings are only Roma and Bologna and these two teams are currently in pretty good form even though Roma is 4 points from Bologna but this is still possible to happen because this season there are still 11 matches left, still quite a lot of points will be up for grabs.

[Strongkored]

Don't underestimate underdog teams like Bologna, however, football can still give surprises, even teams with no experience can still compete there if their performance is impressive and that's what Bologna is doing now, they are performing impressively and consistently so they managed to occupy fourth place even though they still have a long way to go. long and AS Roma and Atalanta still have a chance to take that position but Bologna also still has a chance to maintain their strength and for Napoli I don't know whether next season they can compete again in the UCL because their performance is not so stable.

Bologna may be the underdog team when they face Inter Milan later, but overall Bologna is a pretty good team this season and Inter Milan must remain alert because Bologna managed to beat them in the 16th round of the Coppa Italia which caused Inter Milan to fail to advance to the quarterfinals, even though in the end Bologna also had to accept defeat from Fiorentina in the quarter-finals and Bologna was quite strong when facing a strong team, especially when playing at home, Bologna performed better than in the away match so Inter Milan had to be aware of all possibilities.
Inter Milan probably won't be too worried in the match against Bologna because the 15-point lead over Juventus will not be easy for their rival to catch up with, less is possible but being surpassed by Juventus can be said to be impossible so even if Inter Milan gets a draw it will still make them comfortable at the top of the standings.
Bologna being chased by Roma looks like it will be difficult because Roma has just improved in the last few matches, so it is not certain that their performance will continue to be as good after being handled by De Rossi.
