Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[klidex]

Juventus has changed their manager maybe but they still couldn't perform the transfer plans in their mind. Motta has a really difficult job to do because of that. My biggest expectation is from Napoli to make difficulties for Inter honestly.

Thiago Motta has done his job well so far he also recruited several players recorded there are already 6 players they brought into their squad this season some they bought some on loan and some took from their academy, Juventus has indeed sold many of their players this summer but they also did not remain silent even though they lost many players, they sorted out players who fit Thiago Motta's characteristics to be brought to the club.

Yes I also see Napoli might make it difficult for Inter Milan and Juventus next season they recruit a manager who has good achievements in Serie A and Napoli players also still consist of the best players so it is likely that Napoli can be better than last season with Antonio Conte's coaching system.

[Rampagoe004]

Personally, I am quite curious about the difference in Napoli after they hire Conte as the most expensive coach in Serie A. At least, Napoli's target for Conte is to be able to enter the UCL qualification. As for the top 1, Inter still holds its position.

So far Napoli have signed defenders, and they are not top players either.

Napoli can get 100 million euros from Osimhen's sale. But the problem is some teams think Osimhen's price is a bit expensive considering his performance. On the other hand, Conte has worked with Lukaku and it seems that the tactics that Conte will use with Napoli will suit Lukaku's playing style. But Lukaku is old and will only be able to last for one or two seasons. I think why Conte doesn't try to include Osimhen in his strategy. He is still young and still has the potential to be better in the next few seasons.

I'm sure Inter Milan can show the same performance as last season when they got ez win for the scudetto. Juventus and Milan have new coaches. They need time to build chemistry with their players.
I think it can't be done in a short time, and most probably they need more than a season to have good chemistry.

I agree with you. I think Inter Milan will dominate Serie A for the next one or two seasons. This season I still don't see which team will give Inter Milan a tough challenge. AC Milan and Juventus have to rebuild their chemistry and adapt because they have new coaches. There is a chance that the new coach can adapt quickly and increase the chance of winning the scudetto. But it will be very difficult. Atalanta and AS Roma played well last season but I don't think they are worthy of being title contenders with Juventus and AC Milan.

It is difficult to eliminate confidence in Inter Milan in defending the title because several team are still in the conditioning stage to be able to find their best performance and Inter Milan only need to maintain consistency and stability of performance.
Anyone will definitely make Inter Milan favorite for the 2024/25 season and indeed there are only Juventus or AC Milan who are the two team that are expected to be able to provide tight competition in making it difficult for Inter Milan to win the title again.
It just that if these three team can really compete fiercely until the end of the season, then we will all definitely have difficulty seeing who will win the title or Scudetto, what is clear is that there must be great hope for Juventus and AC Milan in the fight for the title apart from the defending champion Inter Milan.
Moreover, Atalanta and AS Roma are not team that can be said to have significant performance improvements, they are still behind when compared to the top team.

Napoli can get 100 million euros from Osimhen's sale. But the problem is some teams think Osimhen's price is a bit expensive considering his performance.

The price is very expensive and injury history of Osimhen is a big risk for any rich club that wants to get Osimhen. They can be ready to pay the cost but injury record of the player can make these clubs concern a lot.

On the other hand, Conte has worked with Lukaku and it seems that the tactics that Conte will use with Napoli will suit Lukaku's playing style. But Lukaku is old and will only be able to last for one or two seasons.

Lukaku is a safe replacement for Osimhen because Conte already worked successfully with Lukaku in Inter Milan. The striker still played well for AS Roma last season in Serie A and it's small risk for Conte and Napoli in using Lukaku for one or two seasons. For longer plan, ageing will be a biggest risk that can affect Lukaku contribution for Napoli but there is another risk, will Conte stay with Napoli longer than 2 seasons. He does not have good career history of long working time for previous clubs.

I think why Conte doesn't try to include Osimhen in his strategy. He is still young and still has the potential to be better in the next few seasons.

He knew that Osimhen no longer wants to stay and play for Napoli so it's reasonable to build up a plan or some plans without Osimhen for a new season.

Yes I also see Napoli might make it difficult for Inter Milan and Juventus next season they recruit a manager who has good achievements in Serie A and Napoli players also still consist of the best players so it is likely that Napoli can be better than last season with Antonio Conte's coaching system.

Thiago Motta has shown last season with Bologna that he is a quality coach so indeed for now no one doubts Thiago Motta to be able to build Juventus even better.
Regardless of whatever steps are taken by Thiago Motta, I believe that there will be positive progress that will occur at Juventus later.

Don't be too excessive about Antonio Conte being able to build or make Napoli immediately able to compete fiercely in his first season, it is not easy for a coach to build a team that is slumping, especially now that the competition in Serie A is quite fierce.

There are several teams that will compete fiercely in the fight for the Scudetto next season, and I am quite sure that something like last season will not happen again, we can see several top teams being built to be even better and this will be quite threatening for Inter Milan.

Looking at the odds, it is no surprise to see Inter being this much favoured.    Juventus are still right behind despite having a bad season. It must be due to the manager change or history-related maybe.

8.50 for Napoli look really nice...   Rather than betting on Inter to win the title at these low odds, I would try my luck with Napoli. There isn't any guarantee for a certain team to win. Conte's arrival can makes things really interesting as I said. Even if he fails in his first season hopefully De Laurentiis won't make a mistake like sacking him right after. Conte is a brilliant manager. I trust him in case of being given enough time.

[Weawant]

New rumor,
Kepa to Napoli.

thought

Could this be Napoli following the in the path Chelsea has thread?, signing multiple goal keepers when they need more than that, anyways if it turns out the rumors are true and Napoli eventually gets to secure this deal, then I can say for sure they will be having a good quality manning their goal post especially if he's made their first choice goal keeper, all is still considered to be in the bid to strengthen their squad to be much beyond than they were last season and see if they can be opportuned to win back the league title in their domestic league. But then I don't think itd a good destination for kepa.

Well, after seeing the odds provided by the bookmaker, I was a little surprised that Juventus had lower odds than Napoli and Milan. Meanwhile, looking at the recent transfers, Milan and Napoli should have lower odds and be one of the strongest candidates for the Scudetto title after Inter.
Maybe you are right if the bookmaker looks at previous history and currently I think Napoli also has a great chance because they have an experienced coach and it seems that Osimhen will stay.

I prefer to wait at least 5 or 10 match this season after that deciding to bet on one of the teams like Inter and Napoli to get even higher odds. But if you bet early, you might be able to include Napoli on your betting slip.

Inter has been on a roll, sure, but lets not start too far ahead. Serie A's always been a wild card. Keep in mind Juventus's nine-year run. Empires in Italian football come and go. AC Milan and Juventus with new management? Though its a risk, change can cause a turn around. At Bologna, Juventus's new coach performed admisitely and might surprise us. Im not stating they'll win the league tomorrow, but a mid-season surge is not out of impossibility. IMO, Inter's good; but, count out the competition not here. The fans will benefit much from this season's nail-biter nature.

And because of that, sometimes we can't make accurate predictions about which team has the potential to win the Serie A trophy this season even though in general Inter Milan is still quite strong and needs to be watched out for by all its rivals this season.

It is likely that there will be fierce competition next season in the fight for the Scudetto and it will be different compared to last season but we also have to see it realistically that among the top Serie A teams that are now starting to rise, only Inter Milan has consistent performance and strength in the last few seasons so it is natural that they are more favored than other teams.

Juventus and AC Milan seem so serious in improving but there is no guarantee that the team can be as consistent as Inter Milan last season and even several other teams also seem to be making improvements for the better so it is likely that Serie A next season will be much more competitive with fierce competition in the fight for the Scudetto, I think it is much more interesting and good.

I didn't expect the Serie A champion betting odds for next season to be available and seeing this excitement feels very exciting. Inter is the strongest candidate for the title and it is natural that they are still favored to defend their title and maybe they can still get it as long as there are no significant changes like last season. Napoli is indeed good with an experienced coach like Antonio Conte and that is the right feeling for you to choose them.

However, if we talk about betting, I will choose Juventus considering that Thiago Motta could change everything and bring this club back to its high level of play. Although at this time it can be said that there are no things that have been revealed like last season's case which affected Juventus experiencing a point deduction, I think there is nothing wrong with betting on them and of course they will not make another mistake that could harm all parties.

Napoli are the champions of the previous season. They did not finish last season very well. But suddenly they can reach the performance they showed in the previous season. I think Napoli deserve a chance. But we must not forget that Osimhen was a big part of their championship in the previous season. He might not be in the team for the new season. So I think it's better to wait for the transfer window to finish before betting on them. If Osimhen goes to another team, Napoli might not be back to their best.

Napoli were also unlucky, let's say they could have done better, it's certainly difficult to reconfirm yourself if you're not a top club and you don't have the right money to invest in other players who will allow you to continue winning, the others will too

[bitgolden]

Kepa to Napoli makes perfect sense, he didn't even get to play at Real that much, and Lunin played instead, and he is not getting any love from Chelsea neither we know that much, so we are talking about something that's getting very hard for him to get a bigger job.

So, if he could end up playing at Napoli that would be great. Napoli is still trying to sell Osimhen, and they are getting to middle of August now, many bigger clubs will decide not to make that transfer because Osimhen would be too late and already missed the training camp so I think it is not going to end up being that easy to get someone for that much money and put them in a game right away, big teams wanted this transfer done at least a week ago, preferable a month ago.

If Napoli fails to make this work and fail to sell him, they are going to end up with a disgruntled player and that's going to make it even harder for them, he will not play and when he does play he is going to be play terribly. With Osimhen gone, Lukaku and Kepa come in, they would look even better than last year, they would have players who will actually want to play there, that's an important thing and we could make that work one way or another.

Inter Milan are certain to have difficulty defending the title they won last season, their competitors are very active in the transfer market to bring in quality players, Milan, Juventus and Roma are trying hard to improve the quality of their squads. Now it is not certain which team has the potential to win the Scudetto because Inter's rivals could make a big surprise this season. Inter must maintain the quality of their game if they want to win the Scudetto again, they also have to be careful of their rivals because their strength is increasing after successfully recruiting several quality players.

Don't forget about AS Roma too, which looks like it will have a strong and good performance too,but indeed, at least the consistency factor is still a difficult factor for Serie A teams. Because after all, top teams sometimes still underestimate mediocre teams. so the results are also not optimal. Thus, even though they have a chance to compete in the top four, it looks like they will not be able to get points in every match.

It would be interesting if a prediction like this really came true unlike last season regarding Juventus, which was predicted to be able to become a strong competitor in the title race with Inter but however,over time Juventus also experienced a decline in performance. So yes,  I hope they are really able to have a good performance and are able to maintain consistency, because they also have a coach who is also seen as capable of making the team have good quality.

Not only because of the rivalry factor, but in the last few years we have seen that it is difficult for Scudetto teams to defend their championship title in the following season, so perhaps we cannot deny that this will happen for intermilan the next season , but what is certain is that at this time we I also can't deny that what you said could happen considering that their rivals have now improved the squad they have, of the several teams you mentioned, I actually see that Juventus is the team most likely to be the main contender for the Scudetto next season, because currently Juventus have completely overhauled the squad they have apart from bringing in many new players, Juventus have also made Motta their new coach for next season, I personally am quite sure if Juventus will be main compete with Intermilan next season because after all both teams currently have a very big prospect to become a title challenger next season.

Don't expect Inter Milan to be able to easily defend the Scudetto title they won last season, because other clubs have also made preparations to seize the title from their hands. Serie A is one of the leagues that has a very high level of competition, so it is not easy to become champions here. Moreover, several clubs that were previously down have now also shown improvements. There are AC Milan, Juventus, AS Roma, Atalanta and so on, they are a real threat to Inter Milan.

Last season they were indeed able to freely win the Scudetto title, because at the same time the clubs that were their competitors could not maintain their consistency so they could no longer stick closely to Inter Milan. However, this season will be a different season, they have prepared a strategy that they will implement to thwart each opponent. This is the kind of competition we want to see, because the tighter the competition, the more interesting the league will be.
