Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[IceLincoln]

There is always a season for every team so we can say this season is not the one for Napoli. They are not alone in that, Juventus have also had a terrible season, the only difference is that Juventus qualified for champions league next season whereas Napoli did not. Napoli is supposed to win Roma today, that is my expectation because Roma is definitely not going to play their best because they have Europa league match against Bayern Leverkusen of Germany, a match they need to win more than they need that of Napoli. It is also possible that Roma can decided to play defense and drag the match to a draw so they are not weakened.

Yes there’s a season for every team but some clubs make it their season every time. You can’t compare the terrible stats and form of Napoli to that of Juventus. The old lady have had quite a good season Jus a little hiccup here and there, it can’t be compared to Napoli who just sleeps and wakes on the field, game after game. Has there ever been a team after winning the League title drops form outrageously the way this Napoli side did. I blame the Club’s board, they would’ve done everything possible for Luciano Spalleti to stay, or even bring someone as competent. They just went from Champions to Thrash very quickly.

Inter Milan is still intact with their performance in the season and are at the top of the table standing with a wide margin. 16 points ahead of the second club which is AC Milan with 70 points and a match ahead of Inter already after the fixtures they had with Inter last week. In their last game, Inter have still went ahead to make a victory for themselves and showed their prowess in terms performance toward AC Milan and the rest of the clubs, by extension.

Inter will continue to look impressive until the end, no matter even though Inter has secured the Scudetto this season, Inter will still try to perform well with the remaining matches because there are no more matches other than Serie A that Inter can fight for, but maybe Inter is just playing to have fun. trying to win but if they lose it won't affect Inter's position at the top which is 16 points ahead of AC Milan and will likely increase by 19 points if Inter wins again against Torino today.

The match between Juventus and AC Milan yesterday was only able to achieve a draw, this shows that the performance of both of them was indeed equally balanced, Juventus failed to take advantage of the opportunity to get close to AC Milan in this quite tough match, Juventus itself had difficulty achieving victory in the end, who knows what happened? happened to the club led by Massimiliano Allegri which continued to experience setbacks towards the end of the season.

I feel like they are not going to care about the games by the end if you ask me. When the league is about to end, players know that the holiday is right on the corner, most players are given a month of break, usually around June, if they have no games at around late May then they get that too, but by July they come back and start to train by that time as well.

I am fearing however that we are talking about a situation where Inter players may get "injured" and start their vacation earlier and if something like that happens then Inter may end up losing the last games. It is quite obvious that we are going to end up with an issue we could see changing. I am not saying this will happen, all I am saying is that now that they have nothing to fight for, this "may" happen.

[hahay]

AC Milan made Juventus get a draw and made its situation more complicated especially if Roma could win against Napoli in today's game even though bookies are expecting Napoli to win.
Juventus are now only two points ahead of Bologna and between 4 and 7 from Roma. That's mean that Juventus are required to win three of their four remaining games to guarantee qualification to UEFA Champions League next season. The sad news they will face Roma in the next round and Bologna before the last game..

When considering the current points, I think Juventus will still be fine in the top five. Because after all, Serie A gets five Champions League tickets and thus, even though Juventus position is still vulnerable to being overtaken by Bologna but of course Juventus already has a safe position to get Champions League tickets. Because after all, an unsafe position is the position of AS Roma because after all, teams like Lazio and Atalanta still have a chance to enter the race for position five with AS Roma. Therefore, basically AS Roma is still in a threatened position, moreover it seems that AS Roma has also received pressure until AS Roma difficult to consistently get a victory at this moment.

During these 3 seasons, Salernitana has always struggled in the relegation zone, but fortunately in the first 2 seasons, Salernitana was still safe from the relegation zone and continues to play in Serie A, but this season, it seems that Salernitana can no longer survive in Serie A, its performance is getting worse and it is having difficulty getting up to achieve success important points in the remaining matches, even against fellow weak clubs, Salernitana was unable to beat them and get 3 points. We are very sure that Salernitana will return to Serie B next season. It seems that the Serie B clubs miss Salernitana returning to Serie B after 3 seasons. Salernitana fought very hard to compete in Serie A even though his struggle this season had to stop.

In the remaining 4 matches, 3 of which Salernitana will face quite tough matches and their chances of winning are very small because they will face Juventus, Atalanta and Milan. These three clubs are top clubs so it is very difficult for Salernitana to get points from them, there is even 1 The match, which was not too tough against Verona. Could not close the gap between Salernitana so far, so there is no longer any chance for Salernitana to save themselves from the relegation zone this season.

Salernitana has been in the serie A for over 3 seasons and it hasn’t been a bed of roses for them as they have struggled to keep being in the serie A for the 3 seasons. This season being the 3rd is not looking any better as they’re so dipped into the relegation zone of this season.

 Their performance hasn’t been top notched and you feel probably they can get saved rather their performance is worse match after match and you already know they don’t stand a chance. Their performance is an indication that they will sure be taken back to Serie B where they came from.

 ⁠I also think that when teams gets to top flight for them to still remain they need serious investments in order to still be at top flight level. With the current players they have you can’t see them being able to match any of their final opponents like Juventus, Atalanata at all because these teams are top teams that are in a chase too.

 ⁠They have made efforts but I think their efforts ain’t complementing the results gotten so it’s a big disappointment for the fans that the club will be relegated. Now I think clubs should take a cue and try to invest more when they get to top flight leagues.

Bologna missed a wonderful opportunity today, only managing to draw against Udinese.

Certainly everyone expected a victory and three points to join Juventus in the standings but they didn't succeed.
now two other very important matches are being played for the qualification for the cup with Atalanta who is winning and Roma who is losing against Napoli.

[dzungmobile]

When considering the current points, I think Juventus will still be fine in the top five. Because after all, Serie A gets five Champions League tickets and thus, even though Juventus position is still vulnerable to being overtaken by Bologna but of course Juventus already has a safe position to get Champions League tickets. Because after all, an unsafe position is the position of AS Roma because after all, teams like Lazio and Atalanta still have a chance to enter the race for position five with AS Roma. Therefore, basically AS Roma is still in a threatened position, moreover it seems that AS Roma has also received pressure until AS Roma difficult to consistently get a victory at this moment.

Roma got one point from this match that is not exciting but very goal productive. 4 goals with 2 penalties but 1 point from this match does not help Roma to secure their fifth position. Because Atalanta can have up to 60 points, that is one point more than Roma, if they can win one more match.

A fifth position in Serie A will be enough for Roma to join Champions League but even this position is not certainly achieved for Roma. They don't have good difference against Atalanta and they will have to hope that Atalanta won't win their suspended match. Both Roma and Atalanta will have to play semi finals in Europa League and Conference League. These matches in Europe will make their race in Serie A for a fifth position very tight.

Napoli and AS Roma achieved a draw in this match, they showed a tight game and both teams showed quite good buying and selling attacks in this match. In the first half they couldn't score a goal, but in the second half, they were able to score 2 goals each. I think this result is a fair result for both teams, because they also played evenly.
Even though Napli had more opportunities, AS Roma under the guidance of De Rossi was a different AS Roma than before. Napoli tried hard to win this match, but they didn't succeed because AS Roma managed to score an equalizer in the 88th minute.
Napoli this season is not the Napoli of last season, where last season they were very effective when attacking. However, this season they are having a bit of trouble when they want to attack because they fail more often.
Even though it was a draw, this was a pretty good result for AS Roma before they played in the Europa League against Leverkusen.

[xzone]

I didn't expect that Bologna would only get 1 point in their match against Udinese which had just finished. I don't think the red card they got was the reason they achieved this draw, because before they got the red card, they were already 1 goal behind, and they were even able to equalize after they were playing with 10 men. So once again, the red card is not the reason why they achieved this draw.

In fact, they played to dominate the game, only they couldn't be effective in attacking, and they lost at the end of the first half so they had to fall behind first. This draw cannot allow Udines to move from the relegation zone they occupy, because they are still 2 points behind Verona with this additional 1 point. This is also the 17th draw they have achieved, they are the team that has achieved the most draws this season.

The next match is a match between Napoli vs AS Roma, who will be able to win this match?

It was a bad match for Bologna. Losing points against a team that dreams of getting out of the relegation zone, this was one of the worst possible scenarios for them. Their league rankings have not changed yet, but the point difference between them and their opponents has changed. In fact, it was an opportunity for them to play against a team like Udinese. They couldn't take advantage of this opportunity

Even though it was a draw, this was a pretty good result for AS Roma before they played in the Europa League against Leverkusen.

Draw was what I was expecting; the match should end, and it happened as I predicted. I was aware that Roma was in better form than Napoli, but it was Napoli's home game, so I was expecting extra performances from them, and seriously, they played well, but they were not just lucky to win the game. Napoli created a lot of good chances, but lucky was not on their side to be able to convert those good chances into goals. 
 
If I were to compare Napoli's form this season and last season, honestly, their performances really declined. I was not expecting their performances to be really bad like this. As I was not expecting Napoli not to make the top four this season with how they performed last season, the surprise thing is that they did not key those key players, so I wonder how they lose performances like this.

I think there is no threat for Juventus. I'm sure they will show us enjoyable matches in the groups in the UCL next year. They will be in the top 4 together with Milan and the other team will probably be Bologna. Are you sure that the top 5 teams will go to UCL, because I remember 4 teams will go. If 5 teams are going to go, we will probably see a fierce competition between the teams that want to get to the fifth place.

It is a good hit back from Roma to equalize the last goal. I was thinking that Napoli with the penalty advantage will win the match, but I saw how Roma never wanted to accept defeat and that gave them the morale to make sure that the goal was equalized.

Napoli performance will good today, as they were able to play the ball in their favor, and created good opportunities but they were unable to make proper use of those chances. Napoli needs to improve next season in order for them to keep up their stand in Seria A.

Yeah maybe that's luck for AS Roma even though we know this draw is not satisfactory for AS Roma as they are struggling to get close to Bologna in 4th place and AS Roma need 4 more points to equalize the points. Honestly, I'm not sure whether AS Roma can take over the top 4 because they are still concentrating on the European League and it is clear that AS Roma will prioritize this competition so that it will have an impact on their performance in Serie A. Apart from that, AS Roma also has to face Juventus and Atalanta in the next Serie A match, we can imagine how difficult it would be to catch Bologna in this situation.

I would say the opposite, Napoli were unlucky today because they failed to maintain their 2-1 lead when the match was almost over. Roma were lucky to prevent defeat, although they regretted it considering that Bologna also drew against Udinese. Roma remains in 5th position with a 4 point gap from Bologna, but they still have a chance to get closer and qualify for the Champions League next season.

The problem is, Roma may have to discover the fact that Atalanta will overtake them in the standings because Atalanta has 1 match in hand. Atalanta, which is 2 points below Roma, has the potential to surpass Roma with a gap of 1 point, but however, Roma still has the opportunity to qualify for the Champions League if Bologna's performance declines in the remainder of the season.

Yes I guess. Juventus and Atalanta are two strong teams and it is very difficult for Rome to win in these 2 matches. If we also take into account the difficult match against Leverkusen in the European league, it will be a tiring month for the players. If they get into the top 4 it will be a great success. After beating Liverpool, Atalanta started playing with great morale. Maybe they will push for 3 points in the Atalanta match, but I don't think they will have much chance against Juventus because they will return tired from the Europa League match.

[Lillominato89]

Inter - Torino 2-0 Bologna - Udinese 1-1 Napoli - Roma 2-2

These are the most important matches of the day I'd say, too bad for Bologna, they just can't catch Juventus, despite the umpteenth false step of the Bianconeri Bologna remains 2 points behind given the draw against Udinese

Inter continue to win and it was also predictable, big Scudetto party today in the streets of the city

Napoli's terrible year continues inexorably and despite a good performance they are unable to bring home the 3 points, Roma once again prove to be a tough team to beat

And that is a very significant decline, because if we look at it from any point of view they don't have any advantages this season. In contrast to last season, which was able to perform very extraordinary, they only experienced 4 defeats, and they only experienced 6 draws, that is a number that is 2 times different from the defeats and draws they achieved this season.
I thought they would be able to maintain their performance last season to be able to defend the Scudetto title, but it turns out they couldn't do that and instead they had to slump like they are now. For a team with the status of defending champion, of course this is not a good result at all. Because as a team with defending champion status, they should be able to show something that confirms that they are the team that won the title last season. And they can't do that, they are an average team and maybe last season they were just lucky.

Especially for Roma, even though De Rossi squad is difficult to beat, the draw against Napoli makes their ambition to penetrate the top four of the standings even more difficult, and it is very likely that they will fail to win a ticket to the Champions League next season. Apart from that, Napoli setback this season is quite significant, and it looks like they will fall out of the top 10 in the standings when the season ends. Regarding Inter Milan, they deserve to celebrate their success in winning the Scudetto this season, their performance is quite impressive in Serie A because they have only suffered one defeat so far.

Meanwhile, Bologna wasted the opportunity to overtake Juventus, but the draw versus Udinese did not disturb their position in 4th place. De Rossi squad seems to only be able to finish in the Europa League zone, while Bologna will play in the Champions League. Overall, now all kinds of competition at the top of the standings have finished, the difference in points that has been formed gives an idea of where they will finish at the end of the season. However, what is most unfortunate is Napoli performance, there is nothing to be proud of about them this season even though they are defending champions.

[Slow death]

Napoli 2 - 2 AS Roma

Roma's situation is not good if we are talking about qualifying for the European Champions League, they were very unlucky in the game calendar, precisely in the last league games, they had games against most of the strong teams, while most Of the strong teams there are games against weak teams and only one or two games will be against strong teams. But Roma had a lot of bad luck and this bad luck would hardly allow Roma to get a place in the European Champions League.

Looking at the situation in Rome in the table:



and looking at the next roma games:

Roma - Juventus

This will be a very difficult game for Roma because Juventus' situation is not good either, they will try hard to win because they need points to get a place in the European Champions League, Roma have had many draws in the last 5 games and a draw in this game against juventus it is most likely to happen and this would cause roma to lose points and be surpassed by atalanta

Atalanta - Roma

This will probably be the game that decides who will take the number 5 position, Roma needs to hope that Atalanta loses in the next game, but this is an almost impossible mission because Atalanta will play against the worst team in the league and in my opinion Atalanta will easily win the next game

Roma chances of getting a place in the European Champions League are very slim

[Lannakosa]

Inter - Torino 2-0 Bologna - Udinese 1-1 Napoli - Roma 2-2

Napoli's terrible year continues inexorably and despite a good performance they are unable to bring home the 3 points, Roma once again prove to be a tough team to beat

This match was more important for Roma, because I see that in Serie A now it’s not the top 4, but the top 5 places that give the opportunity to get into the Champions League. But since Roma could not win against Napoli (they were even lucky to achieve a draw in this match), now everything is in the hands of Atalanta. Since Atalanta has played one game less than Roma, they are only two points behind them, and if they win, they will be able to rise to 5th place.

How is it top five to qualify to Champions League in the Seria A?
I am not aware of this unless if any Italian side win the Champions League or the Europa League and as we speak, none of them remain in the race to win the Champions league only the two German giants, one Spanish giant (Real Madrid ) and the French League one giant That (PSG) remains in the Champions League.

A draw against Napoli is not a bad result for Roma, at least they get a point stabilize their fifth position so as not to lose all the point to give Atalanta chance of going to the fifth position if they win their outstanding match.
