Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Luzin]

very true, in practice they will be fighting until the last day to save themselves
apart from Salernitana, now safe in Serie B, even the others can manage to save themselves if they want, so it will be a close fight for all the last teams in my opinion
of course always is this

This is different from the peak of the temporary class. Inter already look comfortable with a gap of 14 points.  Even Napoli who were very superior last season were missing from the top 3 for this season. There are still 9 games, ranked 13-19 still have a chance to kill each other to stay safe playing in Serie A next season.  But for Selernitana it seems to take a miracle with the victory of all the remaining matches and that seems impossible.

Napoli vs Atlanta will be the first Serie A match this week after the international break ends, this match will be a very interesting match in my opinion, at the moment Napoli are in seventh place and if they win of course Napoli will take Atlanta position in 6th, currently the Europa League zone is the most realistic target for Napoli and I think beating Atlanta can further pave their way to get Europa League tickets next season,  Although it is difficult, but I think Napoli will be able to beat Atlanta in the match, especially in the last match Napoli managed to hold Inter Milan draw with score 1-1.
My prediction is Napoli 2-0 Atlanta.

For the Juventus and Lazio matches, it seems that the match will also be quite exciting, because both of them currently need a win to end their negative trend in Serie A, and I think with the conditions and performance of the two teams that are not much different at this time maybe Juventus will win with a narrow score especially so far Juventus has a good record when meeting Lazio,
My prediction is Lazio 1 vs 2 juventus.

The match between Napoli vs Atalanta will be opening match for games week 30 after international break out almost two week, right now some teams fight top fourth position standings and some other teams try out from relegation zone. Napoli still drop on 7th position standings and try for getting Champion League or Europe League spot standings and has three difficult matches left from Atalanta, AS Roma and Bologna will be team loss points for Napoli.
Last match, Napoli success hold draw Inter Milan and must be capital for facing Atalanta in front of their home and take three points to make easily reach Europe League spot place. The other interested match on games week 30 between Juventus vs Lazio, both teams have bad trend performance and Juventus want to get top fourth position must defeat Lazio in this week or potential drop from fourth position standings place and fail qualify to champion league.

Salernitana has managed to stay in Serie A for two seasons. And maybe he will fail in this third season. So it looks like Salernitana will only return to Serie B. Meanwhile, the other teams ranked 19th and above still have their fight and still have a chance. But for Salernitana, which is even 9 points behind from 19th place, it seems almost impossible to get out of the relegation zone.
Meanwhile, if we look at Serie B, it seems like there is already one club that will definitely be in Serie A next season. Namely Parma. Meanwhile, those ranked 2nd and below are all still fighting for the top 3 rankings. Cremonese also seems to have the opportunity to return to Serie A if they can continue to be consistent there.

Really things with Napoli are very different this season, with 45 points they are in 7th position, so for me the performance of this team has been very poor, the truth is I would have preferred if another team had won the power for it because the competitions have had, in all of them they have gone very badly, so it is not a champion team defending the title, quite the opposite, they have lowered the level in an impressive way, what happened? I don't know, but this team is never the same as last season, the team that I still see as being very firm despite everything is Inter, because Inter has its objectives very clear, it's a shame that they have lost on penalties in the UCL, but this team is actually very good, however it is very well on its way to winning Serie A.

PREDICTED LINE-UPS | Napoli v Atalanta

Meanwhile, Atalanta will come into this match on the back of a 2-1 victory against Sporting Lisbon which helped them coast through to the quarter-finals of the Europa League on aggregate. La Dea’s last Serie A win came mid-February when strikes from Mario Pasalic, Teun Koopmeiners and Mitchel Bakker secured the three points. However, since then, the Bergamo-based side have seen a downtrend in performances. The two draws with Milan and Juventus dented their top-four charge after that narrow defeat to Bologna.

Here are the predicted line-ups for the match according to Sky Italia:

Napoli (4-3-3): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Juan Jesus, Mario Rui; Anguissa, Lobotka, Traorè; Politano, Osimhen, Raspadori.

Atalanta (3-4-2-1): Carnesecchi; Scalvini, Djimsiti, Kolasinac; Holm, De Roon, Ederson, Ruggeri; Pasalic, Lookman; Scamacca.

In another order of ideas, I am very excited to think that Juve is in 3rd place with 59 points about to catch up with Milan, so they are not that bad , I think that Juve has very good things to give, even Allegri has maintained the hope of seeing this team very well , not of Reaching first place, but enough to do a good job.

With everything this team has been through, one could predict that they deserve to be at the top, I could say that this is a good indication for them to return to competitions like the UCL, and all those that are possible, which is why they should be among the first 4 places.

Pundit suggests how Juventus attack should look against Lazio

Throughout the season, Juventus has faced challenges with injuries and suspensions, further complicating their performances on the field. Unfortunately, for the game against Lazio, they will be without key players Dusan Vlahovic and Arkadiusz Milik.

However, there is a silver lining as the previously out-of-form Moise Kean has recovered from injury and is available for selection. Kean’s return to fitness provides a boost for Juventus, and he is expected to feature prominently in the upcoming match.

Speaking about how Juve should set their attack up for the game, pundit Stefano Impallomeni said, as quoted by Tuttojuve:

“Against Lazio I expect Kean from the 1st minute together with Yildiz. Milik and Vlahovic are missing, if things go badly you might change him with Chiesa. He’s someone who can give you inventiveness, shots, at the right time. If Kean doesn’t play the game, however, Lazio is already halfway done.”

This match Allegri must win or win, he has no other choice, things are in his favor because they have the motivation, but they cannot fail anymore.

Salernitana has managed to stay in Serie A for two seasons. And maybe he will fail in this third season. So it looks like Salernitana will only return to Serie B. Meanwhile, the other teams ranked 19th and above still have their fight and still have a chance. But for Salernitana, which is even 9 points behind from 19th place, it seems almost impossible to get out of the relegation zone.
Meanwhile, if we look at Serie B, it seems like there is already one club that will definitely be in Serie A next season. Namely Parma. Meanwhile, those ranked 2nd and below are all still fighting for the top 3 rankings. Cremonese also seems to have the opportunity to return to Serie A if they can continue to be consistent there.

Entering the 3rd season, it seems that Salernitana will not be able to survive in Serie A because Salernitana is increasingly being left behind by the clubs above it and now its position is in the last place in the relegation zone so it is quite clear that Salernitana will be relegated this season and next season we will no longer see Salernitana being there. Serie A because it will be replaced by a club from Serie B which will promote in Serie A. Likewise, we have not seen clubs other than Salernitana who will be relegated next because those ranked 19th and above still have a chance to secure a place from the relegation zone.

I can't believe this happened to Frosinone and Sassuolo are in the relegation zone this season even though their performance since the start of the season hasn't been too bad but unfortunately in the last few matches they have lost a lot of balance and suffered a lot of defeats, causing them to fall into the relegation zone if they continue to perform like this, isn't it perhaps his position will be increasingly threatened.

Meanwhile Cagliari, Verona and Empoli are trying hard to show good performance towards the end of the season so they can survive in Serie A. At least they don't give up and resign themselves to the relegation zone so they still have a chance to survive even if they have to work hard.

[comboday]

Last season, Inter were probably one of the most unlikely clubs in the UCL as they managed to reach the final round, but lost out to Manchester City and understandably so. So the expectations of Inter this season are much higher so that they can return to the next round. However, their move was to stop in the 16th round. Yes, learn, now you have to pay more attention to their series.They have no opponents in Serie A. Because the distance between the point and the row club is too long. So Inter is very sure to win the Serie A Cup again. They will replace Napoli as the trophy holders last season.

[Docnaster]

Napoli vs Atlanta will be the first Serie A match this week after the international break ends, this match will be a very interesting match in my opinion, at the moment Napoli are in seventh place and if they win of course Napoli will take Atlanta position in 6th, currently the Europa League zone is the most realistic target for Napoli and I think beating Atlanta can further pave their way to get Europa League tickets next season,  Although it is difficult, but I think Napoli will be able to beat Atlanta in the match, especially in the last match Napoli managed to hold Inter Milan draw with score 1-1.

The match between Napoli vs Atalanta will be opening match for games week 30 after international break out almost two week, right now some teams fight top fourth position standings and some other teams try out from relegation zone. Napoli still drop on 7th position standings and try for getting Champion League or Europe League spot standings and has three difficult matches left from Atalanta, AS Roma and Bologna will be team loss points for Napoli.

The other interested match on games week 30 between Juventus vs Lazio, both teams have bad trend performance and Juventus want to get top fourth position must defeat Lazio in this week or potential drop from fourth position standings place and fail qualify to champion league.

Napoli who happens to be the current reigning champions of Italy have failed to live up to the expectations of many especially their club fans this after winning the Italian Serie A title last season with a good number of points difference ahead of the second team.  After run of poor results that made the club management to sack two of two managers that were managing the team this season, the club seem to be back on track with the current manager but I think it's already too late for them to finish the season in the top four of the league table.
They face Atalanta this weekend and considering the performance of both teams in recent games, I think it'll be a difficult game for either side but I expect Napoli to either win the game or at least get a draw.

Really things with Napoli are very different this season, with 45 points they are in 7th position, so for me the performance of this team has been very poor, the truth is I would have preferred if another team had won the power for it because the competitions have had, in all of them they have gone very badly, so it is not a champion team defending the title, quite the opposite, they have lowered the level in an impressive way, what happened?

whatever Osimhen achieved with Napoli, it was not surprising because in terms of squad depth Napoli was actually already very good but the heyday came when Spalletti came bringing all the luck of the past and managed to win the Scudetto and was also able to improve the talent that Osimhen and the other players became very solid as their confidence and mentality really increased when Spalletti arrived.
but that glory days disappeared after Napoli management destroyed all that, fired Spalletti for the reason that he failed to win the UCL title last season and that was not the right decision and now the fact is that Napoli has become very bad replacing the coach 3 times in 1 season as Napoli management wants to get the UCL title and also the Scudetto title instantly.

without realizing it, Napoli efforts to fire and replace coaches in succession made the players feel unenthusiastic and pessimistic about the results this season.
Napoli hope for the remainder of this match is just to try to get tickets to compete in the European league competition and if they fail, we all know the answer.

I don't know, but this team is never the same as last season, the team that I still see as being very firm despite everything is Inter, because Inter has its objectives very clear, it's a shame that they have lost on penalties in the UCL, but this team is actually very good, however it is very well on its way to winning Serie A.

With nine games to go, Napoli still has the chance of at least clinching a Europa League slot if they can win most of the games. They have a really bad season, sacking two coaches and some key players underperforming. Slovakia coach Francesco Calzona will want to do everything possible to put up a good performance so that he will be considered to remain in the club next season. Being knocked out of the Champions League was a big blow to Napoli because I expected them to win Barcelona but they fell short of expectation. Sadly they might not have the privilege of playing in the prestigious competition next season.

Inter's experience in the UCL this season is more pathetic because they had what it takes to get to the finals. A team that was close to winning the UCL last season and they still maintained the quality this season. Sadly they lost on penalties to Arsenal but they still have another opportunity next year. I will say that Arsenal was just lucky because Inter was more experienced and coordinated.     

[Strongkored]

I can't believe this happened to Frosinone and Sassuolo are in the relegation zone this season even though their performance since the start of the season hasn't been too bad but unfortunately in the last few matches they have lost a lot of balance and suffered a lot of defeats, causing them to fall into the relegation zone if they continue to perform like this, isn't it perhaps his position will be increasingly threatened.

Meanwhile Cagliari, Verona and Empoli are trying hard to show good performance towards the end of the season so they can survive in Serie A. At least they don't give up and resign themselves to the relegation zone so they still have a chance to survive even if they have to work hard.

Competition in the relegation zone is very tight this season and Frosinone, who performed well at the start of the season, is slowly no longer able to maintain their good performance and is getting worse because other teams have succeeded in improving their performance.
Before there were Cagliari and Empoli who were in 19th and 18th positions and are currently occupied by different teams and my prediction is that because there are seven teams with points that are not much different than until the end of the season it will be possible to determine which two more teams will go down to Serie B because one team is certain to be Salernitana which is unlikely to survive the relegation zone.

When the seven teams who are still competing to get out of the relegation zone face each other, the match will really determine their fate, the team that wins will be likely to remain in Serie A, like next week's match where Sassuolo will play Salernitana by beating Salernitana, Sassuolo will have the opportunity to improve their position but if they lose or draw it will only benefit the other team.

You'd have to blame the management, I think it's something to learn from so they don't repeat same thing in the nearest future you see? They brought in all round mid managers who had it difficult to give them success this season. Most disgusting has got to be the so cakk Rudi Garcia and Walter Mazzari, they both fumbled the club and as we all saw that they're not good enough to manage the squad.

Saddens me to see that, the defending Champions are struggling to get back into the first four clubs, and to be realistic, we all can see that, achieving that would be difficult even within the next nine games they have to playa sij Seria A.
I'm afraid most of them big names would want to leave the club as they won't be involved in any of the European Competitions for next season.

Victor Oshime has been well linked to Premier League sides, and I'm not going to say no to moving forward after being disrespected twice by the so called management of Napoli.  Both Paris Saint Germany, Arsenal and Chelsea are being linked to sign up the Nigerian International.

Napoli who happens to be the current reigning champions of Italy have failed to live up to the expectations of many especially their club fans this after winning the Italian Serie A title last season with a good number of points difference ahead of the second team.  After run of poor results that made the club management to sack two of two managers that were managing the team this season, the club seem to be back on track with the current manager but I think it's already too late for them to finish the season in the top four of the league table.
They face Atalanta this weekend and considering the performance of both teams in recent games, I think it'll be a difficult game for either side but I expect Napoli to either win the game or at least get a draw.

As a team that is the defending champion, Napoli should be able to provide a significant resistance in defending the Scudetto, but we don't find this at all in Napoli at this time, although it still has a chance to enter the Europa League zone next season, but to be honest if this season is Napoli's worst season from the past few seasons,  I think against Atlanta is not an easy job for Napoli, but in terms of quality of players and head to head so far it is clear that Napoli are superior to Atlanta.

I think Napoli's destruction is none other than because they lost Luciano Spalletti as a fairly reliable coach in last season, Moreover at this time in my opinion Napoli's declining performance is none other than due to the confusion of strategy due to them changing coaches too often, I think for now is indeed too late for Napoli to reach the Champions League zone but for the Europa League and Conbenrence League zones of course it is still open for them if it remains Consistently, against Atlanta of course it was difficult as I said before, but after they managed to draw against a tough team like intermilan of course the Napoli squad has high motivation to win and I think 2-0 for Napoli victory will be the final result of the game.

Last season, Inter were probably one of the most unlikely clubs in the UCL as they managed to reach the final round, but lost out to Manchester City and understandably so. So the expectations of Inter this season are much higher so that they can return to the next round. However, their move was to stop in the 16th round. Yes, learn, now you have to pay more attention to their series.They have no opponents in Serie A. Because the distance between the point and the row club is too long. So Inter is very sure to win the Serie A Cup again. They will replace Napoli as the trophy holders last season.

Sometimes, having very high expectations is not good for us caused by it will also make us delutional and hard to accept the fact.  Interimlan has bottled UCL title this season after it was losing against atletioco madrid. This season is also a bad season for Intermilan. It's because the club underestimated Atletico Madrid, and I remember when Intermilan was favored to advance to the final because it had also achieved significant success last season with almost the same squad.

People predicted that this Italian candidate would advance to the final, but they were all mistaken. Intermilan's poor performance against Atletico Madrid exacerbated the club's problems. Having said that, if Simeone has done his best but that's not enough in helping intermilan to get into the at very least semifinal, he is now leaving the competition even earlier.
INtermilan must have learned a lot from their match against Atletico Madrid by not attempting to win the serie A as well. Many fans are hoping that Inter will win the Scudetto this season. It's time for Intermilan to make a comeback and win a consolidation price for all of inter fans.

It leads with a large gap to second place, and it is now performing even better. Intermilan must ensure that it prepares better for the UCL in the coming season. It is becoming more difficult for Inter Milan to win the Scudetto.
I'm confident Intermilan can do it. Intermilan only needs to win six more matches to secure the scudetto this season. There will be no tolerance if Intermilan bottles the trophy despite leading by large margins.

[Velvet78]

Napoli will be blamed by a lot of its fans if it will not able to win against atalanta soon. Napoli's target to enter UCL, that can be reached only when napoli farms full points from any matches.

It is just too difficult for Napoli to qualify for the Champions League group stage from now on. Maybe there are still 9 more weeks. However the problem is that the point gap with the fourth position has gone up to nine points. Besides there are 3 teams ahead of them fighting for the same goal. Napoli really need to get quite lucky at the same time. 

This is all because of starting the season really badly. It took them a really long time to start getting better results. But they still continue to lose points even though they haven't lost a game for many weeks. If they won their last two games instead of draws then their chance for the Champions League would be more realistic.

[Tmoonz]

My tips so far

Intermilan... Empoli home to win

Lecce ... As roma away to win

Bologna...salernitana home to win or draw

Cagliari ...Hellas Verona home to win or draw

Torino....Monza both teams to score

Genoa... Frosinone he to win or draw

Napoli.... Atlanta both teams to score.

[xzone]

very true, in practice they will be fighting until the last day to save themselves
apart from Salernitana, now safe in Serie B, even the others can manage to save themselves if they want, so it will be a close fight for all the last teams in my opinion
of course always is this

This is different from the peak of the temporary class. Inter already look comfortable with a gap of 14 points.  Even Napoli who were very superior last season were missing from the top 3 for this season. There are still 9 games, ranked 13-19 still have a chance to kill each other to stay safe playing in Serie A next season.  But for Selernitana it seems to take a miracle with the victory of all the remaining matches and that seems impossible.

It is almost impossible for a team that has earned 14 points in 29 matches to gain that many more points in just a few matches. I think they also accepted that they will play in Serie B next year. Unless there's a miracle, I don't think they'll have much of a chance
The scores of the other teams are still very close to each other, the fight will continue until the last week. The team that wins 2-3 matches gets rid of the relegation zone and continues to take part in Serie A next year

Napoli vs Atalanta

Napoli StartXI: 4-3-3
Alex Meret; Giovanni Di Lorenzo; Amir Rrahmani; Juan Jesus; Mário Rui; Frank Anguissa; Stanislav Lobotka; Hamed Junior Traorè; Matteo Politano; Victor Osimhen; Giacomo Raspadori

Atalanta StartXI: 3-4-1-2
Marco Carnesecchi; Giorgio Scalvini; Isak Hien; Sead Kolašinac; Hans Hateboer; Marten de Roon; Éderson; Davide Zappacosta; Mario Pašalić; Aleksei Miranchuk; Gianluca Scamacca

Napoli are hosting Atalanta this time around and they have the record of winning them in their last four meetings both home and away, for today's match i think that long unbeaten will continue because Atalanta are not in their best form now due to result of their last five matches they only won one match, draw two and lost two while Napoli are trying to rebuild their strength, so the clear thing here is that Napoli have the chances of winning this match.

Napoli are under Atalanta with 2 points less but Atalanta have one postponed match so the difference can become 5 points if Atalanta win that match later. This direct match is a chance for Napoli to beat Atalanta and make sure that their difference with Atalanta will be only 2 points less with same played matches.

They will be the host and it is good support from their home stadium and fans, to give them more motivational power to beat Atalanta. It will not be easy for Napoli as Atalanta have better stats than Napoli, they have similar conceded goals but Atalanta scored about 10 goals more than Napoli.

Atalanta have good counter attacking ability and they will apply counter attacking tactics in Naples. Napoli need to win this match but they must avoid starting it too aggressively attacking and forget defensive tasks.

This is different from the peak of the temporary class. Inter already look comfortable with a gap of 14 points.  Even Napoli who were very superior last season were missing from the top 3 for this season. There are still 9 games, ranked 13-19 still have a chance to kill each other to stay safe playing in Serie A next season.  But for Selernitana it seems to take a miracle with the victory of all the remaining matches and that seems impossible.

Of course with the points Inter Milan has they can now relaxed because there is no way other clubs can beat them on this league table, like you mentioned I'm also surprise to see how Napoli that has that kind of good performance last season will be this poor in performance that they were unable to at least secure the second or the third position of this league, however this there match against Atlanta seem to be very tough on Napoli because Atlanta is really showing some kind of good level of performance and they have been dominating Napoli since the beginning of the matche till now and there ball possession is very high because Atlanta has 65% while Napoli has 35% ball possession, so perhaps if it continues this way Napoli may likely lose the match.

Also in terms of Selernitana situation on this season even grace cannot bring them out of the relegation zone because they have the worst performance on this league season and there points is too small that even if they win there matches they will not still be able to come out, so perhaps they seriously need to work on the team so that there next season will not be this way.

The scores of the other teams are still very close to each other, the fight will continue until the last week. The team that wins 2-3 matches gets rid of the relegation zone and continues to take part in Serie A next year

The conditions experienced by Salernitana can no longer be saved, they must be willing to drop from a caste next season because they are in 20th place with 14 points, nine points behind Sassuolo who are in 19th position and 11 points adrift of Empoli in the safe zone. 17th place. Apart from that, Salernitana will still face tough teams in the remaining matches until the end of the season and of course it will be difficult to get points.

Salernitana have changed coaches several times this season but there has been no improvement at all, they have instead slumped to the bottom of the standings and the situation is even more sad after losing the last two matches which makes it increasingly difficult for them to get out of the relegation zone.
