Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[imamusma]

~~

Juventus performance in the last two games was amazing, they scored six goals and kept a clean sheet, showing that Juventus is in better shape than the previous season, as they defeated Verona with three goals during the away game, same team that beat Napoli at home in the first game of the season. However, Juventus is in great form, and if Motta wants to win the league title, they must continue to play this way, as they were inconsistent last season, Juventus started the season well, while some of us expected them to win the title the previous season, but they struggled at the end.

Furthermore, I believe the next game against Roma will determine whether Juventus is in better form because they haven't played any of the top six teams in Seria A this season. Roma hasn't been in good form this season, with just one point in their last two games, but I believe they will still be a difficult opponent for Juventus.

It seems that the match between Juventus versus AS Roma will also go according to many people predictions, where Thiago Motta squad has a high chance of securing full points again. If Juventus manages to get an additional 3 points, then the appointment of Thiago Motta as Massimiliano Allegri successor is very appropriate, the match against AS Roma is a test to test Juventus strength. De Rossi himself seems to have difficulty repeating the journey like last season, they performed disappointingly in the previous two matches. In my opinion, they made a mistake by not daring to make Lukaku permanent from Chelsea, although they managed to bring in Artem Dovbyk from Girona.

Meanwhile, AS Roma needs luck to be able to create a surprise victory, especially Juventus who acted as the host, it would be lucky if AS Roma avoided defeat. On paper, Juventus is indeed worthy of being the favorite, although the match will be troublesome for both teams. If Juventus can overcome AS Roma resistance, then in my opinion they will be a serious competitor for Inter Milan in the hunt for the Scudetto this season.

It seems that the match between Juventus versus AS Roma will also go according to many people predictions, where Thiago Motta squad has a high chance of securing full points again.

but if we look at how both clubs have performed so far at the start of the season, Juventus will be far superior. It seems that de Rossi has not found the most suitable player formation tactics. And some of their new players still cannot be that solid to strengthen their line. Juventus is leading, with their bigger mentality after having their good match results previously, different with what happened to Roma. Although in H2H, both are actually quite competitive, Roma and Juventus are both competing tightly.

Oh yeah, aside from the match against Roma tomorrow, in fact, Juventus already knows the draw of the UCL group stage matches.
And this is who they will face:

At least, it shouldn't be too bad for Juventus. Man City is the strongest team in the club, but otherwise, Juventus might be able to handle it.

[BlackBoss_]

I think, to prove whether Juventus are really in a good trend or not, maybe it can also be proven in the next match. Because in the next match Juventus will play against AS Roma although indeed, the fact is that AS Roma is also in a bad trend at this moment because AS Roma did not get a victory in the previous two initial matches. But at least, when a team like AS Roma plays against the top team, it is still possible for AS Roma to have a good performance too because of course they are also more serious about playing against Juventus.

AS Roma will play against Juventus with two early bad results that affect their mentality before this big clash. Hopefully Roma will have good mental preparedness for this match that is important for them as it is one of direct matches for a position in top four of Serie A and it can either make their early bad performances become a mini crisis or help them to get out of two early bad matches with a win against Juventus.

Therefore, maybe if Juventus is still consistent with its wins and clean sheets, then I would probably say Juventus this season will have a great chance to get the Scudetto. Because after all, Juventus are basically not a mediocre team and thus, when they can start the season very well, then it will also probably be a sign for Juventus who will still get good results this season.

Juventus with Buffon, Chiellini, Bonucci, Barzagli used to have very strong defense which was their foundation to dominate Serie A in nearly 1 decade. This season, they started well with two winnings and a clean sheet that needs more matches to test their defense ability. At least they began with good defense and if they can maintain it, Juventus will become a very competitive team for Scudetto competition against other clubs in Serie A.

Lakaka signs for Napoli officially!    Conte has been wishing to see him in his team for a long time so finally they meet each other. As of this signing Napoli will have solved their recent striker problem.

Chelsea spent 113 million euros for Lukaku while getting him back from Inter 3 years ago... I still can't believe how terrible they can be with transfer policies.  

From now on I'm just waiting on Chelsea to sign Osimhen or not. Latest news says he is closer to Al-Ahli. If Chelsea fails then I'm curious whether they will give up on signing a striker for now. Because there isn't much time left for the end of the transfer window. Because August 30 is the final date for transfers in the Premier League.

With Lukaku officially joining Napoli, of course this will be very happy news for Napoli fans. The reason is that after several months ago it was rumored that Lukaku would join Napoli, now he has finally actually joined. However, it looks like Napoli are really moving forward by daring to spend quite a lot of money. Because what I know initially is that Napoli will only recruit Lukaku if Osimhen is sold. But currently, even though Osimhen has not yet been sold, Napoli dare to recruit Lukaku for a nominal price of 30 million. So for now, let's just see how Napoli performs after Lukaku joins. I hope that Lukaku can be as fierce as when Conte coached him at Inter. Because currently Napoli really has a very big deadlock on the front line.
Then next week Napoli will face Parma, so hopefully Lukaku can be used in that match.

And talking about Osimhen, I don't think Chelsea will recruit Osimhen at this time. Because as far as I know, currently Chelsea has signed a lot of new players this season. So my prediction is that Chelsea will most likely not bring in Osimhen, at least for this season. Maybe Osimhen is more inclined to move to Al Ahli, because currently Al Ahli really needs a sharp striker like Osimhen. Apart from that, Al Ahli is also definitely ready in terms of money, so Al Ahli won't think much longer if for example Osimhen gives a sign that he is ready to join Al Ahli.

It seems that the match between Juventus versus AS Roma will also go according to many people predictions, where Thiago Motta squad has a high chance of securing full points again.

Juventus have secured two wins in a row, to me its basically improvement for la Vecchia Signora this season. Thiago Motta is doing everything he can to ensure he secured the scudetto for them this season, which will be really challenging for them due to the presence of other fierce oppositions. We don't underestimate any oppositions because this is football and it takes only a day to break records. Fine, Juventus have be dominative against AS Roma but not in previous games, they ended up sharing points with 1-1 on the scoresheet. I'm sticking to the analytical H2H outcome, it's a GG game and Juventus likely have a chance to accumulate three points.

I agree with you. If Juventus can win that match then they are very worthy to be a title contender along with Inter Milan and AC Milan. But if Roma can surprisingly win that match then they can be called an underdog as a title contender. But I am not sure about AS Roma's chances to win that match. They have not won in their first two matches. This is different from Juventus who have won two. This match will be difficult for Roma. The best result for them is a draw although that will be very very difficult.

[Hirose UK]

Today Inter Milan will play against Atalanta and in this match will give Inter Milan an advantage to win because they are playing at home, moreover, victory in this match is also needed so that they can still compete more easily in the standings table.
In the previous two matches Inter Milan also experienced one failure to win and only ended the match in 2 - 2 draw against Genoa, this was quite disappointing match because strong team like Inter Milan had to be held to draw by team like Genoa which is middle to lower team.

I took several betting options such as Double Chance with Inter Milan winning or draw and also the 1st goal for Inter Milan and Over 1,5 this is to anticipate unexpected things like when Inter Milan played against Genoa.

This match is very important for Roma who are in need of a win after suffering two unpleasant results in previous matches. Roma hopes of getting their first points at the start of the season are very difficult because the team they are facing is in good momentum. Juventus have emerged as a team ready to challenge for the title under Thiago Motta, their game is increasingly attractive with a well-organized attack pattern. Roma chances are very small to win this game, because they will play in front of Juventus supporters. Roma internal situation is also not harmonious after the dispute between De Rossi and Bryan Cristante, this situation will make it difficult for Roma to bring home points from Juventus headquarters.

Conte got what his wishes. No more excuses for him not to deliver for all of Napoli fans. Also, it's confirmed Lukaku's in a better state than he was in the previous seasons. It will be amazing if Conte will able to bring back his son's true potential like he did at Intermilan.

Chelsea suffers a huge loss by selling Lukaku for 30 million. But, letting him leave as a free agent would be worse. They get 30 millions back to be used to reinvest in another player. That's why i call this is far better rather than we got nothing from Lukaku.

They are not finished with the 2 wins. Of course, they made a great start to the league, but that doesn't mean they will be champions yet. They were very close to Inter last year, but the consecutive defeats they suffered pushed them out of the league. If they don't want to see a similar picture this year, they should be very controlled in the league. I think they will be in the upper ranks of the league because Motta can give them that.

Lukaku's football journey is like a true nomad. Lukaku will play for the third Italian team in his career, after two spells with Inter and one with Roma. Basically, Lukaku is a perfect fit for Napoli. He looks a lot like an American football player. Standing at 1.90m tall, Lukaku is strong and extremely fast. They need a player who can hold the ball, exploit space, and be sharp in finishing. Lukaku will satisfy that. Of course, when Conte trusts him, Lukaku must also understand that he is responsible for repaying the trust of the coach, fans, and home team.

Selling Lukaku for 30 million euros is a good figure. Chelsea also closed Lukaku's £200,000-a-week salary to strengthen the budget for necessary transfer activities. The two sides officially parted ways this summer and certainly don't want to see each other again down the road.

Previously i was doubt Juventus performance because their pre season matches doesn't run well because Juventus only can able to gets 1 win from 4 matches but when Serie A begin and Juventus win from Como i was impress to see them because seems Thiago Motta can improved Juventus performance rapidly and i know Juventus previous opponents is not categorized as strong teams but i think Juventus has good progress

For the match against Roma i can see Roma still unable to in form and i think Juventus has good chances to extended their positive records and win from Roma and about Juventus chances in Champion league i think their schedules is relatively easy because their strongest opponent on League phase is only Manchester City and i think if Juventus can consistent i am sure Juventus will be qualified to the next round

[giammangiato]

I am very happy that Napoli achieved a good result in their last match and above all two new players scored.
In my opinion this is a good performance, in the end he won with a fairly strong team, Bologna with a good result.
You can see that the great Antonio Conte is still working on it, and I think that Napoli can have a decent season.

[bastisisca]

Juventus have been in good form this season. And the way Juventus have performed in their first two matches, I think Juventus have been able to form a strong squad this season. Juventus face Coma and Hellas Verona in the first two matches. And Juventus' performance in both matches was spot on. And Juventus won both matches 3-0.

Juventus wants to win the title this season. And Juventus' only rival is Inter Milan. Inter Milan and Juventus will battle it out for the Serie A title this season. I don't think teams like Milan and Napoli are capable of fighting for the title this season. Their performance is quite erratic.

In fact he played well, both against Como and Verona with good results. However, in my humble opinion this does not represent true proof in all respects.
We need to test Juventus against stronger teams, with Milan and Inter for example. Only in this way will we have real proof.

Lukaku's arrival will not make Napoli improve graphically just like that, of course he is the player Conte wants up front but they also have to provide some other players who are in defense and also their midfield, overall this is a good effort from Napoli's management with Conte of course the fans' hopes are certainly high for Conte to be able to compete in the top four standings but they have to realize that Serie A is currently on the rise from other clubs of course for Napoli they have to improve their team system as a whole in order to get perfect results, support from management and fans is certainly needed by Conte to make them united in restoring Napoli.

Likewise, Chelsea who managed to sell Lukaku is an extraordinary peace of mind it seems, because this love affair has been shabby for a long time, Lukaku has often been loaned and has not been able to penetrate Chelsea's main squad, this is also a joy Lukaku seems to be leaving permanently from the English club, and the benefits obtained in my opinion are the same for both Lukaku who wants to leave and Chelsea who wants to sell him so there is no loss here.

on Sunday there will be an important challenge and a big match Juventus-Roma which will be a very valid test to decide whether Juventus is the strongest team in the field, up until now they have only challenged modest clubs who have not given the team many problems and in view of this match everyone will want to see how strong the team is, let's say that they will also face a very weak Roma, a team without an identity that did not enter the first phase of the championship very well with strong shocks also on the bench, on the part of Juventus there is I'm excited for Sancho, it's a race against time, we'll see what happens, it'll definitely be a good match!

This match will be an interesting match and will have a high intensity of play, both teams are Serie A giants, even though AS Roma have not won a single win this season, their situation could be a spur for them to get 3 points in this match. On the other side, Juventus is ready to welcome them, with a home match on the agenda, it's difficult to imagine Juventus losing the match.

BTW, about Sancho's transfer, it looks like Juventus will fail to get him, the latest news I read is that Chelsea are also interested in that English player.

[bitgolden]

Napoli getting Lukaku is great, but he was suppose to be the striker when Osimhen was out because Osimhen made it very clear that he wants out, and Conte made it clear that he doesn't want a player who doesn't want to stay. The logic seems like they spent 30 million on a player, because they were about to make 100+ million on another player.

If Osimhen is still at the team, what's the point of getting Lukaku for 30 million? Let's see what happens but I believe that this speeds things up, considering how we do not have that much time left on the transfer window, there is a good chance that Osimhen leaves for much less than what we thought they were going to sell him for. I think something between 60-70 million range seems like a likely result that may happen. This is mainly because most teams that can spend 100+ already have a good striker and that is why they failed. Osimhen really shouldn't stay, it would be miserable situation for both the team and for him at the same time.

BTW, about Sancho's transfer, it looks like Juventus will fail to get him, the latest news I read is that Chelsea are also interested in that English player.

In terms of productivity, these two clubs are actually a little different at the moment and Juventus is more favored because they have managed to win 2x at the start of the season.
Meanwhile, Roma's performance looks bad after being defeated by Empoli who only played away and Roma was humiliated with a score of 2-1.
In the upcoming match, I am more confident that Juventus will be able to beat Roma and this time De Rossi is still looking for ways to strengthen Roma's performance so that it can return to last season.

For the news about Sancho, I actually agree more if he can have a career with Juventus which can provide the best experience compared to having to be with Chelsea who still has problems that make it difficult for the club to develop.

Juventus are an unbeaten team and even they are at the top of the table with no conceding at all, but so far the opponents they have faced are not strong teams that we can use as a benchmark to say they are the favorites to be winner at the moment, facing Roma will be the motta first challenge of the season to be able to maintain their consistency on the winning track, Juventus journey to win the Scudetto is still very long even though they have started the season well so far, but Motta still has to be able to improve his team performance to be even better considering that teams like Milan and Intermilan also have very big ambitions to win the Scudetto this season, Roma may still not find their best form in the last two matches but I think they will be a difficult opponent for Juventus later, because So far I see that the Juventus squad is still not perfect after releasing a lot of their players.
