Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[MAAManda]

2 nil for Bologna at Napoli with Napoli also missed a penalty.

With this potential victory, Bologna would almost certainly secure their place in the Champsion League.
If the match will end like this tomorrow Roma would be playing the match of the season, in or out against Atalanta for the next Champsion League spot.

A good win and points taken from a great team too, I still didn't expect the Bologna I knew before to be this strong now, I hope they're not only good this season but are able to maintain their performance in the seasons to come. Bologna can't even be said to be close to getting a UCL spot next season, there is Juventus who is only 1 point away from them and there is still Atalanta who, although 7 points away from Bologna, Atalanta has a 2 game deficit. Napoli, they will not play any European competitions, not UCL, UEL or UECL.

[GiftedMAN]

If Roma lose, I think they will definitely get it and there is no room for Roma to be able to reverse the aggregate against Leverkusen. It is very difficult to face a very strong team in all competitions and therefore it would be best if it could not be forced then Roma should think about being able to shift Atalana's position in the standings.

That is much more important and let Atalanta focus on both and Roma can take the opportunity to win when Atalanta's players are tired after returning from the European league. I'm curious considering the situation is so similar that we will be given an unexpected surprise to get a place in the champions league at the end of the season.

Roma has two options to get into the Champions League: 1.) Win the Europa League 2.) Take 5th place in Serie A. While both options look unlikely, the second option is much more realistic. Therefore, I agree that Roma needs to choose one thing and the best choice is to save maximum energy for the game with Atalanta.
By the way, an interesting option is if Atalanta wins the Europa League and Roma takes 5th place in Serie A, then there will be 6 Italian teams in the Champions League next season.

The chances of Roma winning this season's Europa League trophy are slim because they lost to Bayern Leverkusen 0-2 at home, and it will be difficult for Roma to beat Bayern Leverkusen at home in the second tie of the Europa League semi-final matches. If Roma can beat Atalanta in their Serie A, there will be hope for them to finish in 5th place in the Serie A table.

Bayern Leverkusen looked like the favorites to win the Europa League title this season from the start and they remain favorites so far. Roma is definitely a good team and expectations are always high from this team but this season Roma probably won't be able to compete with Bayern Leverkusen and in the end the Europa League title will be taken home by Bayern Leverkusen. I'm just waiting for a great final match of the Europa League where I would definitely like two strong teams to face each other and it will be a tough fight for one of the teams to win the title.

Bayer Leverkusen has had a better performance this season than Atalanta in all competitions and they are seen as the favorite to win the Europa league finals but it doesn't mean they will achieve that by not working has and playing good football when they take on Atalanta because the Atalanta team is full of young strikers who are good goal getters willing to give their best to ensure they get a good result so in the finals I think I see a match between two good teams who are looking up to lifting the trophy at the end of the day but it will take the team with a better performance to win at the end of the day.

The final match may not end as we expect but match is going to be entertaining since it involves two good teams one among them is unbeaten in all competitions while the other team is hoping to win so they can get the ticket of being in the champions league next season same thing with Dortmund who is hoping to lift the champions league trophy ahead of Real Madrid so they have the ticket of qualifying to champions league next season.

The fact that Napoli got to miss a penalty in the game against bologna today is one of the biggest disappointment for me in this game because I have this optimism in the fact that if they had scored that goal it's very possible that they would have had a better morale that would have helped them through the game to be able to see if they will be able to win the game but sadly they lost it and that was how they lost the game aswell.

I don't even know if to say Napoli was in their bad form or wasn't in their best performance because throwing blames around at this point isn't even helping but then Napoli actually disappointed me real good , Bologna didn't have the best performance that I would say was enough to see it like they out played Napoli, they only their their normal performance but then Napoli was actually seeming slacked and then they took advantage. The goals came in too early making it feel like Napoli was sleeping a s couldn't get to be able to get the job done and before they would know it they have been left behind a d they were unable to get a come back in the second half

Napoli was actually even playing from home of which I was seeing as an advantage but sadly they couldn't even maintain the home advantage to the point of been able to get even a goal and they allowed their visitor to make away with all the points which means they are most likely not going to be able to qualify for the champions league or even the Europa by the end of the season, it's actually such a terrible one that the defending champions could not be able to even finish as runner ups.

[Palakka]

Napoli lost at home with a score of 0-2 against Bologna and with results like this I become curious, who is the Napoli coach for next season. Because after all, Francesco Calzona is also only given a contract until the end of this season and it seems, there are still no strong rumors about who the Napoli coach is for next season. Because anyway, falling behind since the first half but Napoli really couldn't afford to score even one goal. Despite the fact,in the second half Napoli also had good dominance compared to the first half but still, Napoli were still unable to score in this home match. Because I think, this match will have a lot of goals because I think Napoli will have a good effort also because Napoli also plays at home, but the reality is that Napoli still fails.

Napoli, who played at home, actually failed to take advantage of the match to get 3 points, in fact we can see that Napoli could have controlled the match, but instead they failed to anticipate the goals scored by Atlanta in the 9th and 12th minutes, conceding two quick goals of course made Napoli quite surprised and they continued to attack atlanta very impressively but indeed atlanta had a solid defense today so it was difficult for Osimhen to penetrate, apart from that Ravaglia brilliant performance today in guarding the Bologna goal made many opportunities for the Napoli attackers go to waste.


Napoli defeat today of course makes it difficult for them to reach at least the league conference next season with two games remaining, after Mazzari was fired, Napoli made Calzona as coach until the end of the season so I think Napoli is still trying hard to find another coach for the season in the future, however, it is currently reported that Napoli have approached Conte and pioli as their coach next season, regardless of whether the news is true or not, but in my opinion, Napoli will be in good hands if Conte and pioli wants to coach Napoli.

A game of 60mil € value.

Napoli performed better than Bologna in this match; Bologna was lucky enough to get an early goal against Napoli in the 9 minutes and 12 minutes of play. With this 0-2 win against Napoli, Bologna will have more chances of qualifying for next season's UEFA Champions League competition. Bologna has overtaken Juventus for third place in the Serie A table, but Juventus have a match to play. Anything that makes Juventus play a draw in their tomorrow match, Bologna will lead Juventus by a goal difference to remain in the third position of the Serie A table.

In first 20 minutes Bologna was better and then Napoli took control but after that missing penalty they just couldnt comeback in the game. Napoli this season is really bad and i think they just wait for the season to end. Bologna with a huge win and is just 2 points away from a historic position

[coinlocket$]

Bologna won at Napoli and have now overtaken Juventus in the standings, fortunately for the old lady, Serie A will have 5 places available for the Chamspion League and their qualification is really close, in fact they just need to win tomorrow to be certain mathematics against the last in the standings.

Allegri's reign is over, he has lost the team which has not followed him for months now.

Of all the matches I watched between yesterday and today, the match between Napoli and Bologna was the most annoying one to me. While I celebrate Bologna for their effort to win over Napoli with two goals to none, I also want to acknowledge that Napoli has lost it already in this season and have in fact continued to showed their weaknesses including in this match. I think any great player seen as an asset in the club will be looking for alternatives right now.

These things are quite disappointing especially when other clubs are putting in the efforts to make their fans proud, yet Napoli is doing otherwise. Yesterday, Inter was able to beat Frosinone widely with goal difference of 5 to none. Today, Milan is already ahead with 2 goals to 1 against Cagliari where the latter are also putting their efforts to re-equalize but Napoli could not do the same with Bologna when they seemed promising at a time during the season. They must wake up their slumber with these poor performances.

Honestly, Napoli really tried, but as you said, they were not just lucky. Napoli was the team that controlled the pitch,and they even created some chances, but they were not just lucky to score. Just imagine Napoli having six shots on goal target but being unable to score even one goal, but Bologna, who had just four shots on goal target, was able to score two goals. I also saw it as lucky that they worked on the Bologna side in today's match. Seriously, despite Napoli not being great this season, I did not expect Bologna to defeat them in their home game; all I was expecting from the matches was a draw because even Bologna's form has dropped. Now that Bologna won Napoli, I think that chances of finishing in the top four have seriously increased. If Bologna can win their next match, they will secure a place in the next season's champions league. 

[FanEagle]

Inter definitely did not hold back at all, I assumed that they would start to just not care about the games anymore, which would have been not a shocker because they already won all they could win and they would just end up with a situation where they rest some players, but they really di pretty well again, they didn't care about the situation they yare in and gave their best and got a huge victory.

To be honest that shows how strong of a team they are, because even at the face of complacency they still end up with something much better, which is why I believe that we are going to end up with Inter that end up with more victories until the end of the season and we should not really consider them losing when betting.

Yeah, honestly, this is such painful to see how the defeat experienced by Napoli this time. They lost to Bologna 2 goals whereas they actually have so many trials to score the goals. unfortunately, they were not able to optimize the shots. I'm not sure that Napoli striker or other attacking lines are such bad this time. I'm not sure if Bologna is lucky or whatever the name, ut I see that Bologna was much better to optimize the chances than Napoli. And Bologna was smart enough to utilize the chances to make goals, 2 goals, not only because of luck, but because their big efforts.



It seems like they no longer have high motivation to win because their recent performance has really dropped drastically. Even though they have changed coaches several times, it still doesn't work. Do they have to bring in Spaletti again so they can get back on their feet? Will the results be the same as last season again if Spalletti coaches Napoli again one day? Such painful to see how Napoli right now.

Yeah that's the thing about Inter Milan this season even if they have been able to secure the kind of point they did they are still consistent on wining every of their matches although if it was most of the teams they would have actually rest their players because already the point they have is good enough for them to win the league, however I so much love the determination of inter Milan on this season because unlike most of their previous seasons this season has been a game changer for them.

[coinlocket$]

Milan managed to beat Cagliari 5-1 which now seems destined for Serie B. Since Milan now has nothing left to say this season, both in the various cups and in the Serie A (sure of second place) we will be able to witness the official announcement from their coach Pili shortly, in a few days.

Some possible replacements are Conceicao, Fonseca and among the least likely Conte and Motta.

With Inter Milan still consistently winning the remaining matches this season, this indicates that Inter Milan is a team that is full of hard work in achieving what they want this season. So that has made Inter Milan a team worthy of winning the Scudetto title this season. And this has been proven that Inter Milan is still playing as before winning this season in every match and still scoring more goals as happened against Frosinone yesterday without a single reply from the home team.

[QueenVera]

Napoli vs Bologna

Both teams have same records because in the last 5 matches they only get 1 win and i know Bologna was unbeated from those matches but it cannot be says impressive because Bologna gets 4 draw from those matches and i know Bologna position is quite safe now because they have 4 points above to Roma but i think if Bologna want to finish at Champion League zone they have to bounce back immediatelly and return to the winning ways and for Napoli we all know their conditions is not good because Napoli was changing the manager several times and some of their key players also potentially will be leave at the end of this season because Napoli will not playing at Champion league next season

Although Napoli condition is not good but i think they can being an strong opponent for Bologna even if we see from meetings records Napoli was unbeated from Bologna in the last 5 meetings and for today all of Napoli players will be available to play and they are in the good fitness and for Bologna Lewis Ferguson still doubtful to play but it won't be affect to their performance because other players can replace his position and both teams has equal strength and their recent performance also not so different and i think potentially this match will ended to draw and for betting purposes draw has high odds @3.50

There's definitely improvement in the Bologna team, although they're not at perfect spots on the league table but they still are a promising team who seem to have a greater advantage over their opponent. Bologna are also improved in their performances and they've done their best to stay put in performing greatly till the last of the season.

 Thankfully the game against Roma favored Bologna as they did their best to stand out.  Bologna did well to secure the 3points to themselves away from home and the outcome therefore proves how set they are to keep good points especially in the last games left for the season.

 This gave them an extra zeal ahead of their clash against Napoli. Bologna will be playing away from home and so added to their last two league games victory, the host advantage definitely working for Napoli won't be much threat to Bologna. For the fact that their opponent aren't much of a huge difference in both of their performances level this season. Between both teams, I'd say that there's thesame probability of ability and capacity to be victorious.

[Weawant]

It's been a more of an inter season as their productivity, their performance and even their strength is a really good one and in the best form this season, they have been able to maintain a good level of consistency with all this I mentioned earlier since the beginning of this season till this point, at some point it felt like they were in a race with Juventus until Juventus later left the race and fell so bad they are struggling.

Inter Milan has been of a very good and resilient form since this season and they have not only had this kind of form and strength but they have aswell been productive with it aswell and it has shown in their results both in the champions league and the Italian league just that they actually got to turn out unlucky in the champions league a d got knocked out at the stage where they did stopped, I think somehow inter Milan would have been able to even achieve much more off the champions league but then they were disturbed at some point because they did have Juventus at that point contending with them and so they had to find tht balance which they couldn't achieve.

Most definitely inter Milan is going to lift the serie A this season a d they are going to be the champions as they have been able to really getting to win their games and staying at the top of the table with very good scores which is aswell to their advantage so far a d their chances at the trophy now look more certain than it has ever been and they are now sure of the fact that they are ending the season with a trophy.

Thanks to the bad performance and the bad results from Juventus, now AC Milan is totally safe in the second place of the Serie A table and they are sure that they will end the season like this unless they make a mistake and lose some points, otherwise, this 5-1 win against Cagliari made AC Milan to have enough gap with Bologna and Juventus.
However, the place of Pioli in AC Milan is still in danger and they won't keep this coach even after these results he gets.

While Cagliari was quite surprising at that time after beating Atalanta and holding Inter Milan and Juventus to a draw, this time, Milan didn't let them take the slightest step. even rewarded Cagliari defeat with 5 goals. Luckily, Cagliari was still able to score 1 goal so it seems like they have a result, even if it's a little. In this match, Milan really looked serious enough to beat their opponent this time. They don't think about winning titles anymore, what they do is how to always be optimal in every match, against whatever opponent.

There's definitely improvement in the Bologna team, although they're not at perfect spots on the league table but they still are a promising team who seem to have a greater advantage over their opponent. Bologna are also improved in their performances and they've done their best to stay put in performing greatly till the last of the season.

So far, Bologna's performance in the 2023/2024 season has really improved. They may not have been a highly regarded club last season and they also only finished in 9th place last season. Now, they are developing very quickly to be in the top 3. This is very good progress, not only their performance at home matches but also away.

Napoli's situation is not good this season, they changed coach several times, yet the team's performance did not improve and now that series A is ending when looking at Napoli's position in the table



It's unbelievable that Napoli won Serie A last season with a huge points advantage and this season not even being in the top 4 isn't the most humiliating thing and that Napoli is 40 points behind the Inter champions. I don't know how Napoli's management views this season's disaster and to make matters worse, I'm hearing rumors that Victor Osimhen might leave Napoli, I don't know which team will pay more than 100 million dollars that Napoli wants, but if Victor Osimhen Napoli could decline even further if they don't sign more good players at Victor Osimhen's level.

My question is what will Napoli's coach do next season so that the team has good results or will Napoli's management hire another coach for next season?

[snipie]

Napoli's situation is not good this season, they changed coach several times, yet the team's performance did not improve and now that series A is ending when looking at Napoli's position in the table

Napoli wasted this season badly just after doing a good season the previous year and this happened because of several reasons including not selling Osimhen and use the earned money to consolidate the team with a bunch of good players. Besides, there was a huge tensions between Osimhen and the management, at least for a good part of the first rounds.
The next season will most likely be played outside of UEFA leagues and they have to deal with that.
