Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Ryu_Ar1]

Do you think Juventus will drop points tomorrow against Roma or do you think they're going to easily dispatch their opponents?

The answer could be yes and no, because in football anything can happen and we can't say something for sure, especially if it's between winning and losing. However, based on their performance and based on the performance of the opponent they will face, then Juventus' chances of winning this match are quite large, while in my opinion AS Roma is unlikely to win. Juventus was able to win their first 2 matches, while AS Roma had to experience defeat and a draw. In addition, Juventus will also be playing at home, which usually the host will have more motivation to win the match. For me, if AS Roma can hold Juventus to a draw, it is also a good result for them, but it is also possible that they will give a surprise.

With Roma's current condition still not showing optimal results and with Juventus' performance under Motta, which does look much better at least for the 2 matches they did at the start of this season, Juventus' chance to get full points is still very possible.

But as you said that sometimes for a big match like this the situation becomes uncontrollable and all forms of possibilities can still occur.

I will still try to set aside a little of my money in this match to bet on Juventus because with the performance and attack schemes in their last 2 matches it looks like Motta will still continue to carry out their positive trend in the match later even though the opponent is Roma which incidentally is still one of the clubs that are quite good in Serie A.

Tonight Napoli will be facing Parm and it's all clear that Victor Osimhen won't fixture in that game as the No.9 jersey has been handed to Lukaku. They will be facing a Parma side that are in a good form with 2 unbeaten start of the season, having drawn 1:1 their first game with Fiorentina, and also winning 2:1 against AC Milan. It's really going to be a tough game for Napoli with a lot of expectations on Romelo Lukaku to be at his best today as to convince the Neapolitan fans that they really do have no need to miss Victor Osimhen's absence in this season.

Romelu Lukaku should be at his best this season, handing over the number 9 jersey to him is a big sign that they’ve trust in him and will love him to deliver well to elevate the team this season. Too much expectation kills though, but let’s see if Lukaku will surprise us all and make it known to all that his transfer to the club is worth it.

Antonio Conte is very determined about his decision of not having Osimhen in his plans. And the begging question is why don't they want the striker to leave for the Saudi Arabia league when they ain't ready to fixture him in match. I see an attempt by Napoli to frustrate Osimhen by their action of later increasing the amount earlier agreed by Al Ahil to sign Osimhen just not less than 48hrs to the closure of the Saudi Arabia league transfer window. An act that have made the Saudi club to withdraw their keen interest.

At this point, it’s all over and Osimhen already know his fate for this season. After collecting the jersey number 9 from him, his name has also been removed from the website of the club which means throughout the season they’re not even considering to give him a chance to play. This will really affect his market value because when the new transfer window opens, the market value of the team player would have depreciated and will not even get an offer close to what Chelsea initially offered and also what Al-Ahli offered to give him before the value was rejected by the club and asked for more. I don’t know what internal issue they have with Osimhen but it’s clear that they want to frustrate him and they’ve succeeded in doing that.

while in Roma he wasn't at his best though and still we can't say he had a bad season too, was able to score 22 goals in 46 games played. He just got to work hard and improve knowing the responsibility and expectations on him then it's more likely he going to do better under Conte this season.

I do feel for him and how this situation could affect his psychology, at one time he was highly elevated and endowed by Napoli and right now the story has changed relegating him to nothing in the same club he was ones a king. Part of all this that's playing out now started with his refusal to participate in the club activity this summer as he was very eager to leave and now the club in turn is using that to frustrate him.

Osimhen would have to accept his fate, sit back and be receiving his wages from Napoli till January 2025 when the next transfer window will open. Though his market value may be affected but that's Napoli's loss as there's every tendency that the Saudi side will return for him willing to retain his wage amount because they really want him in their league.

Napoli are currently struggling with games, which is quite not their style this season. The Naples have the necessary players but without their rare gem, I don't think they're capable of hitting their top target this season. Victor Osimhen is not just lucky in Italy. The level of racism in Seria A is placed high level and terribly bad for the black players.

I'm still in shock to see Victor Osimhen been excluded from the first team following the broken down relationship with the team's board. Victor Osimhen keen on leaving Napoli but he has to make sure he makes the appropriate decisions. The Saudi side, Al Ahli and English side, Chelsea are in open talks with the Nigerian but the deal have been called off following the disagreement from both parties. However in the coming days, we might see if Victor Osimhen will show greenlight for these clubs.

[hahay]

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!

True, it will be a very interesting match to watch for many reasons in my opinion, reason number one: let's test this new Juventus and see how it fares against a real team. Second reason: let's see how Roma fares without Romero Lukaku, so it will be a very interesting double test.
I don't know whether to place bets on this match, it seems difficult to predict.

The match between Juventus vs AS Roma is basically a big match but unfortunately, at this moment also that AS Roma is still in a situation that may be bad. Because after all, in the previous two matches also the fact that AS Roma only played against mediocre teams, but what happened AS Roma was still unable to get three points. So, comparing Juventus and AS Roma based on the previous two matches, of course Juventus will get the victory, whether it is a difficult victory or maybe also an easy victory but the point is Juventus will be able to beat AS Roma.

But, if Juventus win too I still can't think Juventus will be the team to win the Scudetto this season because at least, for me Juventus' tough opponent is Inter. So, as long as Juventus haven't met Inter then maybe I won't be able to confirm Juventus will win the scudetto this season, because I think Juventus' most difficult rival is Inter.

[bitgolden]

Now, I did NOT expected this at all. Sure Inter is a great team and sure there was a chance that they would win, I would consider them as the favourites as well, but that doesn't mean that it is something this big, a 4-0 win over Atalanta is definitely something new that I did not expected at all.

I would have guessed maybe one or maximum two goal difference, even real Madrid didn't beat them 4-0 so this was something I did not see coming at all.

Eventually we should be considering how this is a great game from Inter. I know this is just the start of the season and we do not know what's going to happen at all, we know that it is going to end up with some issues that is getting different, at the end of the day it is going to be fine eventually so it doesn't mean that we are going to see this changing for long time, it has to be something that will take a while to see but still at this point I still think Inter is a great team that will probably win the league if they keep this up.

Like I said it's too early to say, but it is likely that we are seeing something like that right now, it is going to be a good thing and we are going to see Inter go for that title if they keep this type of domination going.

[Velvet78]

Ah, here we go again... Napoli are 1-0 behind against Parma currently. The goal came very early in the game. Parma are really interesting this season. First they beat Milan and now they are ahead against Napoli away. They turned into a giant slayer.    But it is still early in the game of course. Napoli should play like they did last week.

Lukaku is among the substitutes by the way. This is going to be his first game if he enters. And probably he will early in the second half. He is already familiar with the league. Conte wanted him so much that we will see whether he will be a game changer...

Napoli are in a very bad shape this season. Napoli lost 3-0 against Hellas Verona. But in this match, the players of Napoli were able to perform well enough. There were many attacks. Even then, Napoli could not score a single goal. On the other hand, Hellas Verona scored 3 goals despite attacking less.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if Napoli lose against Parma today. Napoli's performance is erratic so I refrain myself from betting on this match. It would be sad if Napoli lost their home matches against a small team like Parma. Napoli trail 1-0 after 60 minutes. However, Napoli players continued to try to score. Hope Napoli will be able to get points in this match.

With Roma's current condition still not showing optimal results and with Juventus' performance under Motta, which does look much better at least for the 2 matches they did at the start of this season, Juventus' chance to get full points is still very possible.

But as you said that sometimes for a big match like this the situation becomes uncontrollable and all forms of possibilities can still occur.

I will still try to set aside a little of my money in this match to bet on Juventus because with the performance and attack schemes in their last 2 matches it looks like Motta will still continue to carry out their positive trend in the match later even though the opponent is Roma which incidentally is still one of the clubs that are quite good in Serie A.

Juventus' performance in the last two matches is very convincing, it can be an added value to convince us of the probability of victory that will be achieved in the home match against Roma. Roma's poor performance in the last two matches makes Juventus believed to secure 3 points at home, so it is not wrong if many people think that betting on Juventus will give them luck.

In addition to Juventus, Milan is also in poor condition. Milan has lost 5 points in its last two matches, they also have the potential to lose 3 more points today when Lazio is currently leading the match with a score of 2-1. Milan's performance is certainly concerning, but this is only the beginning of the season even though they look unhappy.

Let's see what will happen, but based on Roma's recent performances, I don't think they will have any opportunity against Juventus. I am expecting Juventus to win the match. Juventus' two matches played so far have been really impressive, showing that they should be the favorite team to win. It's a home game for Juventus, and even looking at their head-to-head record, Juventus always has a good chance of winning against Roma, or at least securing a draw. The match will be tough because Roma is not a small team and they always give Juventus a hard time. Roma does manage to win matches against Juventus, but that usually happens when they play at home. So, judging based on their recent results and how both teams perform in their home games, Juventus should have more of an opportunity than Roma in the upcoming match.

This season's AC Milan team is in a very bad position. Looking at Milan's performance in friendly matches, we thought this team would fight for the title this season. But since the beginning of the season we have seen poor and erratic performances from Milan players.

AC Milan dropped points against the likes of Torino and Parma in the first two matches. Milan lost the match against Parma 2-1. Milan players are not able to do well against Lazio in today's match. Milan was leading 1-0 at the end of the first half. But Lazio scored two consecutive goals in the 62nd and 66th minutes of the second half. However, in the 72nd minute, Milan was able to equalize the match with Leao's goal. However, the Inter Milan team failed to win the match. The match is 2-2 at the end of 90 minutes.

Both teams played very carefully in this match. A total of 7 shots were made by the players of both the teams. Milan should change their match strategy. We have seen poor performances from Milan players in all three matches due to poor match tactics.

Hope Napoli will be able to get points in this match.

The Napoli team is very lucky. In the end the team managed to get 3 points against Parma. Napoli scored their first goal in the 90+2 minute. Lukaku scored the goal. And Anguissa's goal in 90+6 minutes gave Napoli a 2-1 lead. Napoli managed to earn 3 points in the match by scoring in extra time.

Parma players performed well in this match. I have not seen this team perform before. Parma also won the last match against Milan. The gameplay of the team is very organized. The main turning point of this match was the red card of Parma's goalkeeper Suzuki in the 75th minute. And I would say this is why Parma lost this match. Napoli is not a weak team. It is difficult to perform well against Napoli with 10 players. Moreover, after 75 minutes, Napoli players increased their attacking pace. Napoli players made a total of 29 shots in this match. And they made 19 shots in the second half.

[Zoomic]

Lukaku is among the substitutes by the way. This is going to be his first game if he enters. And probably he will early in the second half. He is already familiar with the league. Conte wanted him so much that we will see whether he will be a game changer...

Finally, Lukaku got a goal in his debut. No matter however ways the goal came, it has counted. Parmar was unlucky to have its goalie booked and sent off at about 75th minutes. This made a player to take charge of the goal. This was actually double minus for the Parma side.
1. They are playing shorting 1
2. They are playing without a professional goalkeeper.
This two disadvantages gave Napoli hands over them and the match which had 11 minutes added to 90 mins will have Parma go home with 0 points.
Nice to see Lukaku back and performed. He wore the number 11 jersey against the news in the media that he'll wear Victor Osimhen's number 9.

Both teams played very carefully in this match. A total of 7 shots were made by the players of both the teams. Milan should change their match strategy. We have seen poor performances from Milan players in all three matches due to poor match tactics.

Milan have a slight defensive challenge, thou the defense looks fair but exerting some level of pressure on it will get it to loosen it's firmness and any team will be able to score a goal at the almost immediately, Milan is having a tough start, I felt they would do better looking at their performance in the friendlies before now and even their last season form wasn't a bad one, they have still got som of their key players available in their teams so literally they have their form together and adding these up makes me not find the best possible factor to consider as a reason to which they are having to struggle which is leading to this poor start.

Well interesting evening in Serie A.

Napoli managed to win desperatly again Parma who played withot a goalkeeper.
Only for this reason they managed to score 2 goals in overtime, otherwise it was a defeat.

Milan also got another bad result, 2 points over 3 game, Fonseca is already at risk of being sacked.

Romelu Lukaku with the breakthrough shot to rescue Conte and Napoli from an embarrassing home defeat and keep their hopes for this season going that maybe they can win the Serie A again this season. If Lukaku starts performing at a high level, Victor Osimhen who is going to remain in the club after a failed move away from the club will find it difficult to get a space back into this team. I will watch out to see if Scott McTominnay will get a debut in their next game against Cagliari. Napoli needs to start winning games again to be on the same pace as Inter Milan and Juventus.

AC Milan did not show any major changes in their playing style because so far Fonseca has failed to implement a good strategy in the first 3 matches of this season. Rafael Leao and Theo Hernadez came on as substitutes even though these two players were very influential for AC Milan's performance on the field so it was quite strange that Fonseca's strategy was not to play both of them from the start. Of course, with these less than satisfactory results, it would certainly have a bad impact on him.

Napoli finally managed to get 3 points in today's match and this victory was also very dramatic because they were able to score two goals in the final minutes of the match. The additional 3 points put Napoli in the top 4, In addition, Napoli's new star, Lukaku, was also able to record an impressive debut because he managed to score one goal in today's match.

I am happy for Lukaku to score a goal that bring the team back to life in his debut day, he is doing exactly what the team wanted him to do, and since he have several experiences from different leagues and from different leagues, I think m he can do better in Napoli because he can easily fit in to their pattern of football, and Conte likes him. Congratulations to Conte and Napoli because it could have been a draw match.

Milan on the other hand doesn’t look like a team that can compete for the title, they are yet to win a match and this shows that they will left behind in the Seria A title chase, it will now be between Inter Milan and Juventus.

[hyudien]

Romelu Lukaku should be at his best this season, handing over the number 9 jersey to him is a big sign that they’ve trust in him and will love him to deliver well to elevate the team this season. Too much expectation kills though, but let’s see if Lukaku will surprise us all and make it known to all that his transfer to the club is worth it.

The first match, the equalizer in extra time when all Napoli players were almost frustrated and this was also the first goal scored by Lukaku, very special, certainly made Napoli fans happy because their expectations were met, at least for now it can provide a little happiness in the 90+2 minute breaking the deadlock. Ok, did Osimhen watch this match? He actually really wants Lukaku to play badly 

[Akbarkoe]

Now, I did NOT expected this at all. Sure Inter is a great team and sure there was a chance that they would win, I would consider them as the favourites as well, but that doesn't mean that it is something this big, a 4-0 win over Atalanta is definitely something new that I did not expected at all.

I would have guessed maybe one or maximum two goal difference, even real Madrid didn't beat them 4-0 so this was something I did not see coming at all.

Eventually we should be considering how this is a great game from Inter. I know this is just the start of the season and we do not know what's going to happen at all, we know that it is going to end up with some issues that is getting different, at the end of the day it is going to be fine eventually so it doesn't mean that we are going to see this changing for long time, it has to be something that will take a while to see but still at this point I still think Inter is a great team that will probably win the league if they keep this up.

Like I said it's too early to say, but it is likely that we are seeing something like that right now, it is going to be a good thing and we are going to see Inter go for that title if they keep this type of domination going.

Atalanta lost their concentration after an own goal by Berat Djimsiti in the 3rd minute of the first half followed in the 10th minute by a goal by Nicolo, it was very tough for Atalanta and they could not balance the game.

This match was beyond expectations to reach 4-0, Atalanta really struggled when there was a fast attack, this shows that Atalanta may not be in a good state.
Yes it's too early to say because it's only been a few weeks and we still have a lot of games to go, but if they don't learn from their mistakes it's likely to be very difficult, especially for Atalanta who will compete in the champions league later, I think they have to quickly improve the team otherwise they might become a target.
