Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[BlackBoss_]

Atalanta could put Roma aside and take their spot but this will not happen if Roma could continue winning although Atalanta have the advantage to overtake them since Atalanta aren't that consisting and easily lose points.
There will be also a game between Roma and Atalanta in Bergamo and that match will have a huge impact if both teams will remain close to each other.

Atalanta have very good chance to take the fifth position from Roma because they have one suspended match. This will be a big match for Atalanta, because of two things, the opponent is Fiorentina, a strong opponent; and the importance of it to help Atalanta get advantage in a competition with Roma.

AS Roma are not in form but they seem promising outside their domestic Serie A league. Daniele De Rossi will always deliver his best performance, keen on improvement towards his players and their style of performing on the pitch. Atalanta are inform and facing AS Roma would be a little bit headache for Nerazzurri headcoach, Gian Piero Gasperini. He's effortlessly making huge plans to extend his glorious momentum with his current team. It have never been easy for them but they keep pushing for brilliant performance against opponents.

Roma are in a streak of very difficult matches that in first half of season, is very last factor to kick Mourinho out of Roma. De Rossi received a lot of applause with his first matches for Roma but now, the last four matches in Serie A will decide a position of Roma in Serie A and also will decide this season is good or bad with De Rossi management.

It can be considered as success if Roma can end the season in top four or top five because it is reasons Roma sacked Mourinho and hired De Rossi. If Roma complete this season beyond top four, top five, De Rossi can be considered as a failed replacement for Mourinho, means that he did not do better than Mourinho.

Facing Roma is challenging for any team now. I would not say that this team is not in good form. Roma team is now more interested in winning the Europa League title. Roma shared the points with Napoli in the last match. I can't say sharing points against a team like Napoli is a bad result. This is a good enough result.

Roma will play at home against Atalanta. But I'm not sure if Roma can win. Because now De Rossi is more worried about the match against Leverkusen. Roma will face Leverkusen on May 3 and May 10. And Roma will play against Atalanta on May 6. So I think Roma have a big chance of dropping points against Atalanta.

[bering]

Genoa performance was very fantastic yesterday because they can able to overcomes Cagliari with huge scores 3-0 and playing at home Genoa was taking initiative to playing attacking since the beginning of match and this makes Cagliari was playing under pressure and they were unable to develop their game which make Genoa with comfortable can win from this match and after this result Genoa has 42 points from 34 matches and it's officially Genoa will be survive at Serie A because their points cannot be pursuing again by the teams from relegation zone just like Udinese or Sassuolo

For Cagliari this loses makes their chances to avoiding relegation zone a bit hard because they have to bounce back immediately and gets the winning results from their upcoming matches and next weekend Cagliari opponent is Lecce and i think this is hard match for them because recently Lecce performance has been showing good progress because from 6 latest matches in Serie A Lecce only lost once from Milan so Cagliari should beware of Lecce because this team potentially can makes Cagliari losing points again and if Cagliari lost from this match then Cagliari most likely will be relegated to Serie B

Roma will have some big matches in Serie A till the season ending and in last four matches, they will have fixture like this

Roma vs Juventus
Atalanta vs Roma
Roma vs Genoa
Empoli vs Roma

Two big matches with Juventus and Atalanta and two other easier matches with Genoa and Empoli. Roma can get 6 points from Genoa and Empoli but I am really not sure how many points they will get from Juventus and Atalanta. Two matches with Juventus and Atalanta will decide Roma finish this season with a fourth or fifth position.

[Hirose UK]

It seems to me that Atalanta is already a favorite in the fight for 5th place (and a ticket to the Champions League) since they have a game in hand (although the opponent is not so simple - Fiorentina) and the remaining games are quite easy: Salernitana, Lecce, Torino. For Roma everything looks more complicated: Juvents, Genoa, Empoli. It seems to me that Atalanta will lose points in the game with Fiorentina, and Roma in the game with Juventus, and if Roma does not win against Atalanta in the head-to-head match, it will end the season in 6th place.

I agree with what you said. But I think AS Roma has a better chance even though in the rankings Roma is 1 point behind Atalanta if they win against Fiorentina. After that they will face several matches and the two will meet next month. I think it is a match to determine who will stay in 5th place and get a ticket to the European league next season. Statistically, I prefer AS Roma because after being with De Rossi I see AS Roma as a solid team.

For the time being, AS Roma is still in 5th place in the standings and Atalanta is just below it with difference of 2 points, but Atalanta has match against Salernitana which is the bottom team in this season standings.
Salernitana is not strong team and can give big surprise so I sure that Atalanta will definitely win the match and if the points can really be obtained in full then AS Roma will be moved to 6th position.
However, we don't need to worry because there are still several matches that will give AS Roma the opportunity to maintain or reclaim the top 5 position.
Moreover, it is certain that AS Roma will again get Europa League tickets next season and of course they will try to be much better than this season and they will study and prepare everything thoroughly.

Regarding De Rossi, I don't know whether at the end of the season he will actually be retained or replaced because his status as coach is only temporary, but he has shown quite good performance.

The competition for the top four in Serie A between As Roma and Bologna is still very fierce and the fight for tickets to Europe is also fierce between As Roma and Atalanta. However, these two teams have a match that is no less important because they both have a match in the semifinals of the Europa League, of course their current focus is the Europa League.

Atalanta itself has the opportunity to win two trophies this season, namely the Europa League and the Italian Cup, of course this will break their concentration. So it's true, as you said, statistically AS Roma still has a chance of getting a ticket to the European League, even the UCL League. However, what is certain is that both Atalanta and AS Roma have a fast path to getting UCL League tickets, namely being able to win the European League trophy.

The improvement that occurred in the Roma squad this season is indeed amazing after the arrival of de Rossi, slowly de Rossi was able roma to bring better in the Europa League this season, besides that Roma, which was previously far below the top 5 rankings, and was able to rise and compete with Atlanta at this time for a place in the Europa League this season,  Atlanta are of course targeting the Europa League rankings at the end of this season even though they are fighting hard enough to win the Europa League and also the Coppa Italia at the moment, but at the moment of course it is difficult to say they will not get a Europa League ticket because indeed the performance and schedule of playing in the Europa League and also the Coppa Italia are not too close.

Unlike you, of course I sure it more certain if Atlanta can end the season above Roma this season, in terms of performance of course Atlanta is still better than Roma which is also on the rise, but Atlanta advantage of course lies in the rest of their matches which are easier than Rome at this time, the match between Atlanta vs Roma in week 35 will be decisive for both teams.

I also hope Roma can get that position. Because I want to see De Rossi with Roma fighting better in the Europa League next season. But the problem here is that Atalanta this week even has an easier match than Roma. Atalanta this week will face Salernitana who are currently at the bottom of the standings and the only club that is certain to be relegated. Meanwhile, Roma has a match that will be very difficult to face. Because Roma have to face Juventus who are currently ranked 3rd in the standings. If Roma lose this week to Juventus and Atalanta wins the match against Salernitana. then of course Roma's position will drop to 6th place. And it will be a bad season for this team.

You are right the competition among the two clubs is getting tougher as the season advances but when we talk about overall performance I think Bologna has been quite good this season although Roma on the other hand is also good but currently there performance is not actually good enough to overtake Bologna on the fourth position because in whichever way we reason it Bologna is always better and even on there last meeting with Roma it was a nightmare to Roma even when they were at home Bologna still shows them that they are more stronger than them and it ended 3:1 against Roma and in terms of there points currently Bologna is leading with two points different from Roma so the chances of Roma bringing Bologna down from the fourth position is very small.

Yes, the difference is two points between As Roma and Atalanta, the competition is quite tight for 5th place but also As Roma wants to finish in the top four eliminating Bologna, I see that it is true that the rest of As Roma's last match is quite difficult compared to Atalanta, let alone Bologna, but the meeting As Roma against Bologna and Atalanta will of course determine the third position. De Rossi has succeeded in bringing As Roma to a brilliant performance this season, at least they have not fallen below an unsafe position.

As Roma and Atalanta have another busy schedule, namely playing an important match in the UEL semi-finals where both of them will really use up their energy to play as hard as possible to get good results. I admit that Atalanta might be able to get a place in 5th place but they have to be able to sweep the net. the remaining matches at the end of this season with a series of wins because As Roma, Atalanta and Bologna are almost not much different in their last five matches, they both seem less consistent in getting good results, but at the end of this season there will definitely be quite tight competition for all teams will play seriously to secure his position.

If you look at the European League semifinals, I think both teams still have a chance to win the European League. But there is Leverkusen who is the toughest opponent for both of them for the title. And AS Roma must face Leverkusen in the semifinals. I think it will take away their concentration in the league. I see Atalanta having a slight advantage because they will face Marseille and Salernitana. But AS Roma has a 2 point advantage in the League. So it's actually quite difficult to determine who will get fifth place at the end of the season.

[SmartCharpa]

Statistically, I prefer AS Roma because after being with De Rossi I see AS Roma as a solid team.

Roma has come a long way with De Rossi, I prefer to see them play in the next Champions League, I think the Europa League is very little for them to participate in, I want to see how they will play under De Rossi in the next Champions League. In the next match of Roma against Atalanta, it will surely determine who's going to stay in the 5th position, the match may end up in a draw.

The competition for the top four in Serie A between As Roma and Bologna is still very fierce and the fight for tickets to Europe is also fierce between As Roma and Atalanta. However, these two teams have a match that is no less important because they both have a match in the semifinals of the Europa League, of course their current focus is the Europa League.

I agree with you, I think that's the only chance Roma and Atalanta have to get their tickets to participate in the next Champions League. I don't think Roma or Atalanta will qualify for the next Champions League through the Seria A league, since Bologna has already occupied the fourth position and they have been playing very well at this point. Roma needs  5 points to overtake Bologna for the 4th position, I don't think that will be possible because I believe Bologna is not going to lose 4 points in their remaining games. Roma needs to play in their best form to defeat Bayer Leverkusen to advance to the final round, if they perform weakly they will lose, we know how strong Leverkusen has been playing this season, without losing any of their games.

Players applauding the opponent winning the league is something common in football nowadays. Almost all professional football leagues in the world have this gesture. Unwanted incidents just sometime happen in the intense games between big rivals in important matches, Those never happen in a meaningless game like Torino vs Inter.

This game was played flawlessly because the result of the game won't mean anything for both team, therefore the players played freely without any pressure to win the game. Maybe each players had interest in scoring goal because it would be a positive thing for their statistisc history, which can be a good mark for their career.

Torino is not a match for Inter Milan this season so I was not surprised when I saw the results of their match, especially since it happened at Inter Milan's home ground, which at this time actually no longer needs to win the match because Inter is already the champion team this season. But the victory will still not be in vain because it can also reflect that Inter Milan is truly strong and serious in building its performance this season from the start to the end of the season.

Inter Milan won the game against Torino while they used two penalty kicks and maybe without these two penalty kicks Inter Milan couldn't beat Torino and won this match. However, as you said can surely say Tonrino is not on the same level as Inter Milan and there are huge differences between these two teams. But Inter Milan already won the Serie A title and there is no need for them to put too much energy into the games in this season anymore and maybe that's why we didn't see full power from Inter Milan. Otherwise, Inter Milan could win the game with a much better result than they won in this match.
Even if you check the possession in this match we can clearly see Inter Milan was just trying to get control and play safe.

AS Roma are not in form but they seem promising outside their domestic Serie A league. Daniele De Rossi will always deliver his best performance, keen on improvement towards his players and their style of performing on the pitch. Atalanta are inform and facing AS Roma would be a little bit headache for Nerazzurri headcoach, Gian Piero Gasperini. He's effortlessly making huge plans to extend his glorious momentum with his current team. It have never been easy for them but they keep pushing for brilliant performance against opponents.

We can say that Roma have almost achieved their objective, the question that arises spontaneously is whether this is thanks to De Rossi or the previous coach.
Honestly I think there is De Rossi but there is also a lot of work done by Jose, work that Daniele De Rossi has already done.
So the credit remains shared between both.

[Mustang Shelby]

I agree with what you said. But I think AS Roma has a better chance even though in the rankings Roma is 1 point behind Atalanta if they win against Fiorentina. After that they will face several matches and the two will meet next month. I think it is a match to determine who will stay in 5th place and get a ticket to the European league next season. Statistically, I prefer AS Roma because after being with De Rossi I see AS Roma as a solid team.

I also hope Roma can get that position. Because I want to see De Rossi with Roma fighting better in the Europa League next season. But the problem here is that Atalanta this week even has an easier match than Roma. Atalanta this week will face Salernitana who are currently at the bottom of the standings and the only club that is certain to be relegated. Meanwhile, Roma has a match that will be very difficult to face. Because Roma have to face Juventus who are currently ranked 3rd in the standings. If Roma lose this week to Juventus and Atalanta wins the match against Salernitana. then of course Roma's position will drop to 6th place. And it will be a bad season for this team.

It will be a tough match for Roma, but they have a rising chart. The European league match may tire them. Maybe this may be a disadvantage for them, but Atalanta will also play a European league match. Atalanta has the chance to field substitute players against Salernitana, but Roma must field their best players against Juve. We can see Rome in sixth place this week.

[Arenga pinnata]

If you look at the European League semifinals, I think both teams still have a chance to win the European League. But there is Leverkusen who is the toughest opponent for both of them for the title. And AS Roma must face Leverkusen in the semifinals. I think it will take away their concentration in the league. I see Atalanta having a slight advantage because they will face Marseille and Salernitana. But AS Roma has a 2 point advantage in the League. So it's actually quite difficult to determine who will get fifth place at the end of the season.

Leverkusen is indeed the toughest opponent currently in the European League. And Roma had to face them in the Semi-finals. So it is not surprising that the Roma squad's concentration will be more focused on preparations to face Leverkusen. Because after all, Leverkusen even has the same level as Bayern Munich. Because in the Bundesliga Bayern even suffered defeat by Leverkusen.

Atalanta benefits more from opponents who are not as strong as Leverkusen. but Marseille is also a strong team. And beating Marseille will also be very difficult. In fact, I was surprised that Benfica lost to Marseille. But I'm sure Atalanta will advance to the final.

And regarding the fight for 5th place, it is still difficult for us to guess. Because Atalanta currently even has a postponed match that has not yet been played. Meanwhile, Roma has a points advantage. Well things are still uncertain.

[Gallar]

Atalanta could put Roma aside and take their spot but this will not happen if Roma could continue winning although Atalanta have the advantage to overtake them since Atalanta aren't that consisting and easily lose points.
There will be also a game between Roma and Atalanta in Bergamo and that match will have a huge impact if both teams will remain close to each other.

Yes, Atalanta has a big chance of displacing Roma from 5th position in Serie A. This is because the teams that Roma and Atalanta will face in the remaining matches this season will be decisive. Because in the remaining matches, in my opinion, Roma has one opponent that will definitely be difficult to beat, that team is Juventus. Even though Roma's performance at the end of this season could be said to be quite good. The reason is that in their last 5 matches, Roma has never lost. But the problem is, what Roma will face next week is Juventus. What is certain is that Juventus is not a weak team. Meanwhile, Atalanta in the remaining Serie A matches has quite weak opponents. Maybe only Roma will trouble Atalanta a little. But I'm sure Atalanta can definitely match Roma's game. because in the previous match, Roma was held to a draw by Atalanta. So, the possibility of Atalanta wiping out all the remaining matches is very large (without losing). Meanwhile, I'm sure Roma will have difficulty sweeping all the remaining matches. The reason is because Roma will face Juventus. The reason is that in Roma's last match against Juventus, the result was that Roma lost. So the most realistic possibility in the Roma match against Juventus is a draw or Roma losing. So if Roma loses against Juventus while Atalanta can sweep all matches (including against Roma). Roma's position will certainly be shifted by Atalanta.

[giammangiato]

Fiorentina crushed Sassuolo with a score of 5-1 and that was the biggest win for Fiorentina in the last 5 matches. In this match, it was clear that Fiorentina really dominated the game and Sassuolo's defense looked weak so they conceded very easily. On the other hand, Fiorentina also still wants to appear in European competition next season but they have a 5 point difference from Lazio if they want to be in this competition.

However, I am quite sure that Fiorentina can still penetrate that place considering that there are still 3 more matches left before Serie A ends. Currently, Fiorentina is also still fighting in the quarterfinals of the conference league and of course they will also target to win the title later. For Sassuolo, this defeat means they are still stuck in the red zone and it feels very difficult for them to escape the clutches of the red zone if they don't win in the remaining matches.

a truly devastating score, but I dont understand Sassuolo, I cant understand how they play well..
He manages to do well against great teams and then loses 5 to 1 against Fiorentina, ok it is a strong team but it is not Inter or Milan. Everything I expected less than him losing 5 to 1 honestly
But this is the football

[Catenaccio]

Leverkusen is indeed the toughest opponent currently in the European League. And Roma had to face them in the Semi-finals. So it is not surprising that the Roma squad's concentration will be more focused on preparations to face Leverkusen. Because after all, Leverkusen even has the same level as Bayern Munich. Because in the Bundesliga Bayern even suffered defeat by Leverkusen.

Atalanta benefits more from opponents who are not as strong as Leverkusen. but Marseille is also a strong team. And beating Marseille will also be very difficult. In fact, I was surprised that Benfica lost to Marseille. But I'm sure Atalanta will advance to the final.

At semi finals, it's hard to say what team are stronger or weaker than other teams and what match is easier than another. Liverpool lost in quarter finals because they underestimated Atalanta and Atalanta have risk to lose semi finals if they underestimate Marseille. The same for Leverkusen, if they are careless, Roma can beat Leverkusen in semi finals.

The only common thing is all four clubs in semi finals will try to use as best as they have to fight for a position in the final match. Two semi finals in Europa League
will affect their readiness for their matches in domestic league.

And regarding the fight for 5th place, it is still difficult for us to guess. Because Atalanta currently even has a postponed match that has not yet been played. Meanwhile, Roma has a points advantage. Well things are still uncertain.

It's difficult to guess but Atalanta can control this competition if they win their match and make 1 point difference against Roma. Roma actually have disadvantage in this competition with Atalanta.

That's Sassuolo, who can be strong against teams like Milan and Inter, but weak against middle and lower teams. They performed inconsistent, but when palying matches against big teams, we saw that Sassuolo had a high fighting spirit to be able to draw or win. Well, in the end we have to accept the fact, because we are losing the art of Sassuolo in Serie A next season. and now I can no longer expect Sassuolo to stay in Serie A anymore.
