Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[temple]

It's not about this game, seriously not. Losing a game against Atalanta can happen any time to any team on a particular day. I know that this result was devastating and it should not be like this, but it's not as if they lost against one of the teams that are fighting against relegation. Napoli isn't the same anymore, but this hasn't manifested in the game against Atalanta, it has manifested in the games against Genoa and Empoli and many other weaker teams. I think that the season is now officially over as the chances have significantly declined to qualify for any of the UEFA competitions.

Moreover, a 3-goal defeat at home must have been a huge shock for Napoli. There is no trace left of his great performance last year. The Napoli championship-winning squad has disintegrated and it is necessary to enter next year with a different distribution. Napoli was a great team, but they should analyze what is wrong this year and make the transfers to the missing areas in the most correct way.

You could summarize it further and say that this game against Atalanta was the last chance for Napoli to preserve the chance to qualify for the Champions League, or for that matter, for the Europa League as the Champions League has been quite far out of reach anyway. But this result put the nail in the coffin for their remaining season objectives. Atalanta was a direct competitor in the fight for those qualifier ranks and now they are dead in the water in my opinion. It is 12 points between them and 4th Bologna and if Roma wins the game today (which is still tied), it would be 9 points between them and 5th Roma, which would be the Europa League qualification. With 8 games remaining I think it is safe to say that Napoli will neither play the CL nor the EL next season. Too bad. And I think this is just the beginning as they won't be able to keep Osimhen in the team if they can't offer him international top games next season.

Interesting odds on Roma's away win against Lecce... It seems to me that Roma will win, because Lecce have recently changed their coach and the statistics of the team is very bad now... I don't understand why bookmakers give 2.3 on Roma's win, but I'll probably try to use it...

The odds are very tempting but I don't hesitate to bet on Roma winning in this match, in my opinion the Roma team is currently in their best performance and they are also very motivated to be able to get 3 points so they can continue to compete for the title. 4th place in the ranking. Serie A standings
On the other hand, Lecce's performance is currently very inconsistent with all the internal problems they are facing, even though Lecce will play at home, I don't think they have a big chance of matching Roma's performance, which is currently at its best.

The match will take place soon, and I think it is really worth betting on, for Roma to win.
The risk of losing is very small so I think there is no harm in betting large amounts.

De Rossi should come for a win in this match because the 5th position is as stake, if he fails to win Lecce today. This is because Atalanta is just one point behind them, and if it happens that they draw or lose the match, and Atalanta win their next match, Atalanta will take over the 5th position from them. Also their chances of going to UCL next season will become slimmer. Bologna won their match today to have a total of 57 points.

Lecce is inconsistent currently, and I believe that Roma will take advantage of this, and play them to make sure that they win the match, so that they can continue with having hope if an opportunity comes for them to take advantage of Bologna and qualify to the champions league next season. Three points is possible for Roma, only if they merit it.

My nerves are very tense... Lecce made 20 shots and Roma only 6... Half of the second half is left and I'm already starting to doubt Roma's win... I hope they can score, but Lecce are good... Before the match everything was much easier... That's why the odds were so high...

[marcous]

The match between Lecce and Roma is currently underway, where the score is still 0-0 at the moment, while the minutes have almost entered the end of the second half. De Rossi fleet actually controlled the game with possession of the ball, but they were not able to create many opportunities to convert them into goals, De Rossi was late in rotating players.

So far Roma have only been able to fire 2 shots on target, Lecce defense line is quite difficult to penetrate, they play with a defensive style which makes Roma front line frustrated. I don't think Lecce will make Roma stumble, where De Rossi currently needs an additional 3 points to get close to Bologna and penetrate the top four of the standings in the future.

There is still time for Roma to secure 3 points, they have to work hard to do it. It would be a shame if they failed this time, because it would be very difficult for Roma to overtake Bologna in the remaining matches ahead. Let's hope they are lucky today, sharing points is actually not that bad when faced with this situation.

[SUPERSAIAN]

Inter will be playing for a must-win tonight. The points difference with second-placed Milan is down to 11. Last week they drew with Napoli and lost points. They were also eliminated by Atletico Madrid in the Champions League. I'm sure they will focus more on the league now. On the other hand, Empoli are in the relegation zone. I don't think they have a chance against Inter in this match. The odds for an Inter victory are low. But I think Inter's win is a sure thing.

While Napoli drew with Inter, the leader of the league, they conceded three goals from Atalanta the other day. Inter should definitely win today's match so that they can continue their other matches more easily in the coming weeks. On the one hand, even if Milan do not seem to be in extreme danger, it is still not too early and they are aware of this.

Inter club will do everything to make up for the point given to Napoli in this match.

An interesting match is taking place between Roma vs Lecce and there is a lot of fighting between the two teams. Although in today's match, no team has been able to stop the ball in the goal net, due to which the two teams are still fighting in the match. And the way the two teams are fighting in today's match, it seems that maybe there will be no goals in the first half, maybe in the second half there will be a better fight and goals. Although at the moment both teams are fighting hard but are not able to score successfully although we know Roma is a strong team but they have not been able to get ahead of the opposition so far.  But I think Roma will definitely try enough after half-time to score and move up the points table. Although they have not played very well this season which is why they are at the 5th position in the points table so far if they can play better from the start then maybe they could have grabbed a better position in the points table.

A draw is of course not an appropriate result for the Lecce vs Roma match. At least Roma can win this match because many people want AS Roma to win.
Not yet. No goals have been scored yet. If the inevitable draw occurs, the opportunity to get fourth place will require more effort because the difference with Bologna will be 5 points and of course this is not the result desired by AS Roma fans who want Roma to appear in the UCL next season.

Lecce  0-0  Roma First Half

We all considered Roma as favorites against Lecce today. Roma are fifth in the table, and they are trying to grab the fourth place in the table. On the other hand, the Lecce team is in the 13th position of the points table.

But Lecce are performing well in their home match today. Neither team could score in the first half. But the dominance of Lecce's players was palpable. Lecce's players attacked a lot in the first half. Lecce had a total of 16 shots. On the other hand, Roma's players made only 5 shots. If Roma's defense does not perform well today, Roma has a big chance of losing this match. Roma played defensive strategy in the first half. De Rossi will likely change his match tactics in the second half.

There was no change in the score until 90 minutes of time passed which made them have to be willing to share 1 point in this match.
Honestly, although it is quite good but in my opinion this is a loss for Roma because after all for now they should be able to get 3 points in this week especially the opponent is still quite below them but instead in this match it was like Lecce who played without burden.

Lecce played well even though the possession of the ball was fully owned by Roma but in terms of opportunities they really did their best because they seemed to have a much better performance in this match compared to Roma.
Roma's chances are also not bad but when looking at the actual comparison for this match I think it is very much better Lecce than Roma which makes this result not too strange because indeed Roma really can't take advantage of their advantages even though they are favorites in this match.

I was really impressed with what Lecce played but still i wasn't surprised because they are very strong when playing home game, take a look at the stats you can Same Lecce really had a good fight despite AS Roma consistent performance they tried to hold on to draw with them.

[tygeade]

Not only is Juventus loosing points but their form aswell is dropping such that they are not able to probably meet up with getting good results as the team at the fourth position directly under them in their last five games have got a better results than they have gotten in their last five games, it more like Juventus is now struggling and trying to make sure to stay within the top four on the table .

I am also not impressed by the recent performance of Juventus aswell in that they are supposed to be doing much better than that which I see that they are doing at this point because they are not a team thst should be seen as weak at any point and at the beginning of the season they actually did performed well more like they started on a very good note that at some point I even taught it will be very possible for them to be able to win the serie A trophy this season but then it has turned out thst they are getting worse by the day and just managing to draw games to maintain position.

Even if Juventus had dropped points I didn't expect they will go to the third position I only expected they would be at the second or even very close to inter Milan at the top of the table such that their difference will only be that which in the space of a few games they will be able to get ahead of inter if eventually inter has got any form of set back but then it's looking like such may not happen because inter is far ahead.

That was bound to happen with the freckle system they had going on. I kept saying that they have zero squad depth and people didn't care, not only they have 11 players that were good enough to win the title, they had basically nobody at the bench that would help them if something happened to their main squad as well.

I have been saying this since the start of the season, and because they were doing good for a while everyone assumed I was wrong. When things started to change, everyone started to put the blame on the manager but this was purely managements fault as well. I bet that this summer they will get a few good players, but I bet that they will get bunch of players for the bench as well, you will see and realize it too.

[Minecache]

It looks that Tuesday it may be the last game for Allegri at Juventus.
It is also rumored that Montero (ex player) can take his spot till the end of the season.

Montero is now coaching the under 19 team of Juventus.

They need a emotional change to wake up the team or it will a disaster until the end of the season.

To be honest I think it is not the right decision for the Juventus Board to sack him right now. He has maintained good form since the start of the season till a few matches ago. There were chances of them surpassing Inter Milan in terms of points. But they had lost the match against them and ever since they are not able to make a comeback.

He was doing well in this club. I think this is all a rumor till now. I hope it is not true.

Wait! Just a few more games for Inter Milan to win the Scudetto, tonight against Empoli is sure to win because they already have a one-goal lead, meaning the title is getting closer and closer to AC Milan...

It's strange for Napoli, when against Inter Milan as an away is able to hold a draw we know Inter Milan is a difficult opponent but Napoli is able to overcome sharing points, but a few days ago lost at home to Atalanta with a crushing goal, like there is no confidence in their mentality, now Napoli is still eliminated far away.

Looks like Napoli is going to be unsuccessful in trying to defend the Italian title. They are not playing well and they are also nowhere near the top. They are actually not even going to finish in the Europa League position, Let alone the Champions League position. This was definitely unexpected from them after they had been able to win The League title last season. And of course, they had to change the codes. But I don't think that had such a big effect which everyone is talking about. I think it was more of a mental thing instead of skill.

Of course, the tactics were also not good enough like the previous coach. But the morale of the players were not very good. It is pretty obvious that they are not going to defend the title successfully. And I think it should also be pretty obvious that the best player that they have, Osimhen, is going to leave the club.

Inter started the match quickly and scored with Dimarco. It was already clear that the champion was superior to Empoli, they will try to widen the gap. Thuram and Martinez can also score goals. Empoli is also looking for a goal with M'Baye Niang. More goals will be scored in this match, both teams are attacking. Empoli now has nothing to lose. They have to get points to avoid relegation.

Despite the fact that Roma controlled the ball more, Lecce attacked more, and perhaps De Rossi was lucky that his team did not lose today. But in this case for Roma, a draw is a bad result, since they lost points, and Bologna managed to beat Salernitana, and now Roma is 5 points behind the top 4. For now, this seems possible to fix in the remaining 8 games, but I have doubts that for Roma this will be possible. By the way, Juventus lost to Lazio, and now it becomes quite possible for Bologna to bypass Juventus, which is currently in decline.

Currently HT: INTER 1-0 Empoli

Inter managed to score a goal in the 6th minute through Dimarco, but after this goal Inter gave too much space to the opponent so Empoli could develop their game. Or maybe Empoli really want to steal points from Inter so they can stay away from the relegation zone. Overall the first half was exciting, the match was almost a draw because both of them exchanged attacks.

In the first half Inter still haven't really returned to Inter's best performance so far, let's see in the second half whether Inter can be much better or Empoli will score a goal back. I personally have been betting on this match since the first half so that Inter Milan can win.

I expect Inter Milan to score lots of goals in this match. But it looks like the match will end with the same score since the start of the match, namely 1-0. Because now the match has entered the 80th minute and the score has not changed, namely 1-0. Inter Milan as the host can usually score a lot of goals if they face a team that is mediocre in terms of performance. And it seems like Inter Milan still hasn't recovered mentally after they were knocked out of the UCL.

Edited: it turns out that when I wrote, Inter Milan added 1 goal in the 81st minute by Alexis Sanchez. Ok, this still meets my expectations.  the score is now 2-0

I thought Inter would score more goals or Empoli would respond, but the match ended 2-0. Those who played over 2.5 goals lost, my bet was also lost because of that one missing goal. When Alexis Sanchez entered the game, the game became livelier and he scored the goal, but I wish he had entered the game earlier. Losing a parlay with single goal is always annoying. There were only 2 goals in 33 shots in total in the game.

Empoli couldn't create any chances in the 2nd half so, if there'd be another goal. It would've come from Inter but unlucky for you, they were pretty comfortable with the 1-0 lead early on and didn't really attack as much as they usually do, since there wasn't much threat incoming from Empoli. I noticed that during the game that Inter would be dominating possession, thus making Empoli chances scarce, I bet on Empoli to not score a goal. Empoli couldn't even shoot on target in the 2nd half, helping my bet.

Empoli is also looking for a goal with M'Baye Niang. More goals will be scored in this match, both teams are attacking. Empoli now has nothing to lose. They have to get points to avoid relegation.

Yep. Federico Dimarco scored the first goal in minute 5'. Inter Milan was already leading the match with 1 goal since a very early of match. Then, Inter Milan needed 81 minutes to score the second goal. The last goal was made by Alexis Sanchez. With 2 goals, it was enough to win the match and get another 3 points to be more comfortable in the top of Serie A standings. Sure, Inter Milan has secured the Scudetto, there is no other teams that can catch them anymore. The point gap is 14 points, it is too far for AC Milan to catch Inter Milan in the 1st place. By the way, the remaining matches are only 8 matches, Inter Milan most faces weak teams in the next few matches. So, it is a very small chance that Inter Milan will miss points.

Well, Empoli played not a very bad for a small team in the relegation zone. They made 14 shots in this match, unfortunately they have bad accuracy. So, there was no goals for Empoli. This result makes Empoli to stay in the relegation zone. If there is no change, Empoli will play in Serie B for the next season. But they still has a chance to overtake Frosinone if Empoli can get points in the next matches.

[TopT3ns]

In the Lecce vs Roma match, which has been going on for more than twenty-five minutes, there has still not been a single goal scored even though Roma have controlled more of the ball in the current match. However, Lecce is also superior in giving kicks, one of which was towards the Roma goal, so Roma also have to be more careful with this team if Roma wants full points from today's match. Although I also have confidence in Roma to win today's match because considering the improvements they have experienced so far, they have been quite good through their new coach.

Unfortunately this match ended in a draw, even though I really hoped that Roma would succeed in scoring a victory but in the end it wasn't what we all expected. Possession and possession of the ball clearly showed that Roma managed to be superior, but Lecce also often shot at goal up to 27 times and none of them managed to break through, a boring match because Roma should have won to take 4th place in the standings.

There are many opportunities in the match for Roma and Lecce but players of both teams failed to score a single goal. Absence of Dybala affected Roma's attacking power and some last minutes participated in the match are not enough for Dybala to help Roma getting three points.

Roma can feel disappointed with only a draw and one point from Lecce as they let Bologna expanded the gap to 5 points again. This match shows some defensive weakness from Roma too and if Lecce exploit it better, they even can beat Roma at their home stadium.

With 5 points less than Bologna, Roma will have more difficulty in a competition for a fourth position but more than that, they can lose a fifth position to Atalanta too.
