Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Google+]

Atalanta is indeed in good condition now, but that doesn't mean it can be easy to win against Torino even though the upcoming match will take place at Atalanta's home ground. Moreover, Atalanta is already in the Champions League zone now because in Serie A this season there are five teams that can qualify for the Champions League and two teams for the Europa League and one team for the Conference League. So Atalanta doesn't need to hunt for positions anymore at the end of this season because Roma is also six points behind Atalanta at the moment although it would also be great if Atalanta could get the top three or four positions at the end of this season.

What you are saying is true that Atlanta are now in the Champions League zone and Torino will probably be a difficult game for them, but in terms of quality and also team performance of course Atlanta are favourites in that game and I think they will be able to win over Torino, so far Atlanta have high motivation to be able to get points in their remaining games and of course secure a position from the chase of Roma to be Atlanta main target at the moment besides the Europa League final, in head to head, of course Atlanta is superior to Torino, but seeing Torino ability to destroy Milan yesterday, of course Atlanta must be wary of Torino in the game later.


Currently Atlanta is safe in the Champions League zone but that does not mean Atlanta is no longer chasing points in the match later, because after all Roma still has the opportunity to shift Atlanta in 5th place if Roma wins the remaining two matches and also has a better goal difference than Atlanta, so I think with all the possibilities that can happen Atlanta should be able to get at least 1 point in the match later,  So that way Atlanta can be quite safe in 5th position without the possibility of being equalized on points by Roma at the end of the season.

Sassuolo vs Cagliari

Both teams have same target because they want to collect 3 points from this match and avoiding relegation zone but indeed Sassuolo chances compared to Cagliari is really hard because although if they win from this match Sassuolo position is still not safe but for Cagliari if they can overcomes Sassuolo today they will collect 36 points and most likely they will be survive at Serie A and Sassuolo has poor records because from 17 matches Sassuolo only can able to get 1 win and this makes their position currently at 19th place

Cagliari conditions a bit better compared to Sassuolo because from 6 latest matches Cagliari only lost twice but indeed their latest result is not really good because Cagliari was lost from Milan with big scores 5-1 and for this match Sassulo status as the favourite but i didn't believe they can able to overcomes Cagliari today because just like i said above Sassuolo has displayed poor performance and i might be considering to pick draw result from this match because seems the recent performance from both teams is not so different and the odds for draw is quite high to bets @3.40 or other option just like both teams to scores also good pick

I didn't say that Atalanta has qualified for next season's UEFA Champions League; what I said was that the win Atalanta had against Lecce has given them hope of qualifying for next season's UEFA Champions League because Juventus is leading them by one point and there are two remaining matches for the Serie A season to end.

Even if you had mentioned that Atalanta has qualified for the champions League next season you are still right because with the improvement Atalanta has on this season has already landed them into champions league next season and also one good thing about their current position now is that they don't have much competitors against them because they have 6 points above their below teams especially Roma and there is no way Roma will come close to them in terms of there points considering the fact that they have just few matches to the end of the season.

So perhaps even if Juventus has one point above Atalanta it shouldn't be a big deal because what matters is the ability of qualifying to the champions League league next season and already Atalanta has been able to achieve that, so perhaps what they should be looking at now is how to improve there performance next season in other to go far on the champions League.

[W Jr.]

Atalanta's win against Lecce has given them hope to qualify for next season's UEFA Champions League competition. Juventus is yet to qualify for next season's UEFA Champions Competition, and if Juventus fails to win their two remaining matches in the league, they might not qualify for next season's UEFA Champions Competition because they are leading Atalanta by one point. It will be a shame if Juventus doesn't qualify for the UEFA Champions League competition next season because they were once a Serie A title contender this season.

Atlanta is yet to qualify they still need to win the games they have ahead of them, if Juventus who's ahead of them isn't qualified yet, where then did they get their qualifications from, it's practically not possible to qualify ahead of another team that's point ahead of you and even ahead of you by a position on the table , I'm not disputing their chances but the certainty isn't clear yet at this point until the season probably ends.

Levee isn't a tough team to even start with so the victory doe me was expected a s isn't feeling like a big deal to me as I wasn't expecting any less from them, not after they have been able to show up the kind of performance they have been showing in the Europa since this season, where I will be really surprised at Atlanta performance will be with the Europa finals. Juventus will try all within their strength because they were almost close to getting the qualifications earlier before now, I'm sure they wouldn't want to loose it at this time when they very close to getting it.

A draw in their last two game can help them if only Atlanta aswell gets to loose and draw aswell but if they do any away from that then they can be sure to not play in the Champions League next season and it will actually mean bad to the. Because they were a team that started off so well it became really difficult to think they wouldn't be able to at least qualify for the Champions League as that was one of their least worries then.

I didn't say that Atalanta has qualified for next season's UEFA Champions League; what I said was that the win Atalanta had against Lecce has given them hope of qualifying for next season's UEFA Champions League because Juventus is leading them by one point and there are two remaining matches for the Serie A season to end. For a long time, Juventus has been struggling to win their matches in the Serie A, which has put them in this condition, and if they continue with such performances, Atalanta might overtake them in the Serie A table. Juventus next match is against Bologna, and they might likely drop points against Bologna, which will give Atalanta an advantage to enter the top four of the Serie A table if they win their match in Serie A.

Next year, 5 teams from Italy will go to the UCL and Atalanta is still one of these five teams. Finishing fourth will not give them any extra profit. The point gap with Roma is not easily closed, so we can say that Atalanta will be in the UCL next year, of course, if they can fully qualify. They were upset after the final they lost to Juventus, but they are still pushing for the top positions in the rankings by winning 3 points in Lecce.

With Serie A having a share of five clubs that will play in the Champions League next season, Atalanta will certainly play in the competition, because the difference of six points from Roma who are in sixth position is difficult to match, even though Atalanta will probably still be ahead in goal difference, so Atalanta has already qualified for the Champions League and Roma has lost the opportunity to play in the Champions League, so Atalanta's victory over Lecce not only opens up their opportunities but they have indeed got that place.
However, if I judge their performance against Lecce, it was not an impressive performance so I doubt they will be a competitive team in the Champions League unless they make some changes to their squad.

Yes you are right Atalanta has almost certainly made it into Champions League next season since they are six points ahead of Roma with only few games left. Beating Lecce recently made it even more likely they will get in which is great for  team. However I do not think they played well in that game and if they want to do well in Champions League they need to get better players and play better overall. Just getting into competition is not enough they need to be able to compete with best teams in Europe and right now it is not clear they can do that.

Lecce failed to beat Atalanta at home.After a goalless first half, Lecce scored early in the second half to win the game and increase their points tally to 66 and put themselves in a more comfortable position.With 2 weeks to go, Roma's chances of catching them have diminished.
Torino, on the other hand, defeated Milan 3-1.Torino played a good game and it was a good development for them to win.They managed to increase the difference to 3 with the goals scored by Zapata and Ilic in the first half and Rodriguez right at the beginning of the second half.Although Milan reduced the difference to 2 with Bennacer after the 3rd goal, there were no more goals in the match after this minute.

Atalanta's victory last night over host Lecce made Atalanta more comfortable in 5th position, and almost certainly will win the Champion ticket next season, with Atalanta's 0-2 win making Lecce have to be satisfied with defeat at home, fighting for the Champion ticket in Serie A Italy, It feels like it's finished even though AS Roma is still chasing, but Atalanta's current performance is very good, it is difficult for Roma to win tickets from Atalantan.

Last night's match was quite interesting Torino managed to win over visiting AC Milan Torino played very well in the first half. Many of the attacks they created were quite troublesome for AC Milan's defense, until the first half they were 2-0 ahead over visiting AC Milan, and at the start of the second half they managed to increase the goal to 3-0 and AC Milan was only able to break through Torino's goal only once until the final whistle, the score was 3-1 for Torino, and the satisfactory result means Torino can catch Fiorentina to compete in the Europa Conference League next season.

Atalanta has won five times in a row and of course that strengthens its position in 5th place. It is certain that As Roma will have difficulty getting rid of them and getting a UCL ticket, As Roma only needs Atalanta to make a mistake so that As Roma can get rid of them in 5th position, I know it is a tough job for Atalanta, especially since they have to prepare themselves to face Leverkusen in the UEL final which is clear that Atalanta also wants to win the UEL title this season.

Atalanta may be slightly underestimated by Leverkusen supporters but Xabi Alonso certainly knows that underestimating Atalanta is not a good thing, because all this time Leverkusen have never underestimated the strength of their opponents and have always won by a landslide even when facing lower level teams, they have never had compassion for their opponents so Therefore, Atalanta must be careful when facing Leverkusen, because Leverkusen's desire is very big to win three titles this season, treble winner, Bundesliga, UEL and DFB cup because for them they want to make new history apart from being a team that has never lost, Atalanta must prepare themselves. for the UEL final later.

They should not only sign new and good players, they should keep good players like Scamacca this year. At the end of the year, Atalanta lost the Italian Cup final, but they still have a chance of winning the UEL cup. By defeating Liverpool, Atalanta will perhaps give Leverkusen their first defeat of the year. Bayer Leverkusen had a great season this year. In one word, they left behind a dream year. Atalanta can end this dream. Maybe they will only get one defeat and it will be this final, who knows?

Head-to-head stats indicated Atalanta expected a win over Lecce. Though it wasn't an impressive performance, goals from Charles De Ketelaere and Gianluca Scamacca were enough to give Atalanta a victory away to Lecce. Following this win, Atalanta confirms Champions League football next season after a three-year of absence. They will be on the big stage next season, so hopefully, they will make some changes which actually required to get positive results.
For now, they head off to face Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League final. Hopefully, Atalanta will end Leverkusen's winning streak and win the Europa League final.

Atalanta will now be counted among the strongest team in Italy this season due to their over seriousness this season which gave them a ticket to the champions league next season. They came from behind and took over the 5th position from Roma, which means that Roma will continue playing in Europa until they struggle to finish among top five.

This season is a very interesting one as we see the performance of different clubs as surprises and it made the season great.

[rendravolt]

Cagliari successfully won the crucial match against Sassuolo and with the additional full points they moved away from the relegation zone. The goals scored by Prati and Lapadula in the second half allowed Cagliari to breathe a sigh of relief when they visited Sassuolo's headquarters and this was their first win in the last 5 matches.

On the other hand, this defeat means that Sassuolo has no chance of surviving the red zone and it looks like they will have to go down to Serie B for next season. A difference of 5 points from Udinese with 1 match remaining will not be enough to save them from relegation.

This victory is quite important for Cagliari, now they are safe enough not to be relegated this season and on the other hand there is no longer a possibility for Sassuolo, they will definitely be relegated this season.
I think Cagliari's victory at home to Sassuolo is quite natural because Cagliari played much better in this match, with great motivation they were able to produce their best performance so that Sassuolo seemed to have no room to penetrate Cagliari's defense.

I watched this match but unfortunately my bet lost, I bet on Sassuolo winning, I thought those who played at home would be able to play more persistently but in fact they didn't.

They came from behind and took over the 5th position from Roma, which means that Roma will continue playing in Europa until they struggle to finish among top five.

This season is a very interesting one as we see the performance of different clubs as surprises and it made the season great.

Atalanta this season has big ambitions unlike the previous season and this season is the season that Atalnta really has to achieve to maintain its position and also chase the European league title.
Atalanta cannot be happy before this season ends if they really want to get a UCL ticket in the next season, they should be able to maintain their position because Roma has a difference of 6 points while there are still 2 matches remaining which could change Atalanta position and from the remaining matches Atalanta must at least add points with a draw or win to continue to give distance to Roma.

meanwhile, Roma position is also not safe at the moment because the points difference with Lazio is very close and Lazio could catch up with the points difference to shift Roma position.
even though today Lazio will face the strongest team like Inter Milan, Inter has officially won the title and could give Lazio victory because Inter usually appears with second tier players.

It is indeed very unfortunate for Sassuolo,playing athome and still losing against Cagliari, which in reality Cagliari is also a team in the bottom zone of the standings. With results like this then ofcourse, Cagliari hassucceeded in making a point gap that is at least better to stay away from the relegation zone. Meanwhile for Sassuolo, althoughthere is still a chance forSassuolo to get out of the relegation zone,  but it looks like it will still be difficult for Sassuolo to survive inSerie A. Because after all,Sassuolo is really experiencing a decline inperformance and as such, of course it will bedifficult forSassuolo to get out of the relegation zone.

Sassuolo lost what supposed to be their last chance to get out of the relegation zone and now they officially relegated to Serie B. Cagliari is safe for now until we see the final results of the other games. Their victory wasn't surprising in my opinion since Sassuolo unfortunately isn't good this season, and didn't play as it used to do previously.

Of course, Atalanta will try to make the right transfers to build a squad ready for the Champions League next year, but it is not right to say that this year was unsuccessful for them. They reached the final of the European league and maybe they will win the cup. Their chances against Bayer Leverkusen are quite low, but we know there is still a possibility. They might even have a chance to get out of the group in the Champions League with the current squad. However, I am sure that they will try to build a quality squad with players who will definitely be added to this squad. Since they are among the top 5 in the league, they will go to the UCL next year. I think it has been a successful year for Atalanta.

Good, but they stop one step before victory, they reached the final of the Italian Cup, but lost to Juventus, there is still the EL final, but you are right, Bayer is too good now. And in Serie A, Atalanta has a 6-point advantage and I doubt that Roma has any chance of rising higher. So yes, the season is good but it’s too early to stop, if they manage to win the EL final, then it can become not just good, but great.

Sassuolo and Salernitana have lost their chance to stay in Serie A next season because both will move down to Serie B next season. And everyone will only see one more team that will experience this in the last match of the season and I think it will happen to Empoli because Empoli's last match is against Roma who are generally much stronger than Empoli themselves because Roma will definitely trying to win even though they don't have another chance to get into the top five in the League.
