Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[snipie]

I won't be surprised if the Milan coach is fired this season, it seems to me that he won't be able to get Milan to finish at least in one of the 4 positions. He needs to solve the team's problems while it's still too early because the other big teams could be far behind in the table.

AC Milan started the match well with an early goal then they had a gap around the 60th minutes that led to two goals scored in like 5 minutes by Lazio players then luckily Leao saved a point for his team in that game.
So far, Milan had only 2 points out of 9 from what suppose to be easy games except for Lazio one. A bad start and incertain future for the team.

[hahay]

A fine way to begin your debut at your new club when you net a goal when it's most needed. Lukaku gave Napoli a goal when everyone thought it was over for them and I'm sure that was what kept their hopes alive to hunt for a second goal and I must admit that this performance from the Belgian striker has given Conte enough proof that his purchase was not one necessitated by impulse or a sheer waste of funds but one that was highly needed and it's showing that Osimhen won't be missed because you could see him stepping into the role perfectly.
 Without doubt, Parma were the better side in the game yesterday and they showed more composure than Napoli and if it wasn't for the red card given to their keeper, Suzuki, I doubt Napoli would have been able to come back and win.
Six points out of nine for Conte and his boys and it's safe to say they are well on to getting their groove back, that's if they can maintain it though.

The victory that Napoli got for me might not be so deserved and not pleasing for me personally because after all, Napoli had been behind 0-1 since the 19th minute and it turned out, Parma also played with only 10 players in the 75th minute after Parma goalkeeper Zion Suzuki got a red card. So,  because Parma only played with 10 players and moreover, the Parma player who got a red card was the goalkeeper, then of course it was difficult for Parma to maintain the victory that they had gotten.

After all, Napoli was just able to score a goal in injury time, because Napoli just managed to score a goal in the 90+2 and +6 minutes and thus, it was a very late goal even though Napoli was playing at home. After all,if for example Conte included Osimhen in Napoli's squad this season, I'm sure Osimhen would be able to make a big contribution to Napoli too. So yeah, I'm really not impressed with Napoli's current style, they are still bad because it seems like Conte is not a good manager for Napoli either.

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.

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.

I totally agree with you. Milan's defense is weak. And we can see the effect of this in Milan's overall performance. Moreover, Milan has problems in match strategy. Defenders are not doing well even after playing defensive tactics. The coach should apply a different match strategy.

Milan's players managed to score only 5 goals in three matches. But AC Milan conceded 6 goals. If the defense is so shaky then it is impossible for this team to fight for the title. AC Milan is already 5 points behind Inter Milan. Now it seems that qualifying for the Champions League is also a big challenge for Milan. I had high expectations from Milan this season. But we see very bad performance from them.

It is natural that AC Milan has difficulty finding a win from their first 3 matches which have not achieved a single win, even though they have to share points with Lazio, AC Milan must quickly improve themselves otherwise they will sink further to the bottom of the standings, Lazio performed well but their lack of luck in this match had to share points with their opponents, at least securing 8th position in the Serie A standings...

[Hanadawa]

From this match we can see how the performance that Napoli actually has still looks weak even at home and I am also still not sure if every time you compete in Napoli, it will still have difficulty scoring. Conte has to fix this problem because I still see weaknesses in the attack line.

But Conte's statement that he needed Lukaku to perfect his tactics turned out to be true. At first I thought how Conte tried to recruit Lukaku when he didn't perform well with Chelsea and he is a veteran player. But it turned out I was wrong. Although it was only one goal scored at the end of the match but the goal has changed the course of the match and increased Napoli's confidence until Zambo Anguissa was able to score the second goal for Napoli. Yes Conte must fix some of his mistakes that put Napoli in a difficult position. But on the other hand it seems Conte will be successful with Lukaku and Napoli.

[Nanga Parbat]

It was great to see Lukaku score his debut goal for Napoli and it shows that they don't have to rely entirely on Osimhen. At first I thought this was a problem created by Napoli first but over time Osimhen has been too much of an act and it's only natural that his name is now not on Antonio Conte's squad list.

Now Napoli can be said to be safe from doubt and this win against Parma is a good start for them to start the season well. Apart from that, I don't know what Osimhen will do now and he should have gone to Chelsea or the Saudi league from the start if the offer was still there. But it's all over and now Osimhen's status is nothing more than a mediocre player and I doubt whether there will be a club who wants to recruit him after causing problems.

It is the effort and hard work of every team to score the first goal and do it as soon as possible because it gives them more passion and happiness because if they have a goal, if the opposing team scores a goal, then there is so much risk of losing.  It doesn't happen.  And that's why they feel happy doing the first one and that's pretty good.  So this issue has been resolved by them.  What you are saying about Osimahan is true, but it can be done.  It can only do this.  If they succeed in this, those who spoke ill of them will also praise them because their performance is better than before, giving horses to teams that were not thought of for them.  Appreciation will come, but like you, I will call them weak when they don't do anything.And doing so does not matter to them until they improve themselves by thinking that we are no less.

Fiorentina rn is losing against Monza and this is a surprise.
In 1 hour we will have the 1st real test for Juventus against Roma.

Looks like Motta will not make playing the last bought players but only the players who did a long preparation with him.

I think this is a huge chance for Juventus to be able to win the match and get another 3 points. Thiago Motta have started the season far better compared to De Rossi’s squad. So I think Juventus should be very confident about winning this match. And I think this is a time when Juventus should make sure that they get as many points as they can against teams like Roma. because if the Italian capital start performing well and become consistant, it is going to be hard for Juventus to actually get 3 points against them. so maybe what I am saying is basically to kick them when they are down.

By the way,  is the Italian capital going to keep the coach that they have right now or are they going to change the coach if the performance does not improve? I don't think De Rossi  is actually that good of a coach to be honest. If the performance does not improve it will make sense for them to make some changes with the coach.


Less than one hour left to start the match at Allianz Stadium, so it is win win situation @1.74 for Motta's squad at home condition.

Juventus have been showing strong results, securing two wins with the same score of 3-0, although their opponents were underdog teams. However, Juventus are playing active and impressive football, while Roma seem weaker, having earned only one point in two matches. The Romans have yet to impress with their performance, despite having new strong players. Last season, under De Rossi's leadership, the team played more confidently, but their current form is questionable.

Given the current form, Juventus appear to be the stronger side and are likely to secure a victory. My prediction for the match is a Juventus win.

It seems that AC Milan management decision to appoint Paulo Fonseca as Pioli successor is not quite right, as evidenced by the fact that AC Milan have not been able to achieve a single win in three matches this season, they started the season very badly. It is only natural that in the future disappointed fans will ask the club top brass to fire the manager, so as not to suffer the same fate as Napoli last season. I think AC Milan were lucky to get a draw after Rafael Leao equalized, Lazio managed to put up a tough fight, and they made the most of the home game quite well. In the future, there are quite a few things that Paulo Fonseca needs to fix, the pressure is currently getting bigger.

In fact, this season Paulo Fonseca has been quite active in the transfer window, and overall the composition of his squad is better than last season. It is possible that his managerial quality is not good enough, so that AC Milan performance has declined, and it is possible that they will fail to compete in the top four of the standings. Currently AC Milan is in 14th place in the standings and has collected 2 points, clearly this is a very bad situation and a solution must be found immediately. If AC Milan struggles to perform consistently in Serie A, then they will have even more difficulty competing in the Champions League, because the competition there is more competitive.

I no that Fiorentina has not lose any of there matches but if they should continue the way they are playing they will not achieve much on this season because I was also surprise as you are seeing how Monza was regulating the match at the early minutes even scoring two gaols, though in as I expected Fiorentina to win the match but I never believe that Monza will still play draw after scoring the two goals they did, actually they did not try also because since they no that Fiorentina is more stronger they would have just started playing more defensive for the rest of the match because there would have not been any means for Fiorentina to equalise.

About Juventus and Roma nothing has been done for now and they are still playing 0:0 on this 31 minutes, though Juventus is leading in possession, so actually with how far the match has gone on this first half I think if there would be goal it will not be more than one goal but from the second half the game pattern will certainly change, if I'm to predict the match I would say Juventus to win or draw because I don't think Juventus will lose the match.

We were waiting to see a competitive match. Both Juventus and Roma are two of the strongest teams in Serie A. But I find the match very boring. Although the match is Juventus' home match, Juventus is not able to dominate the match. Juventus is one of the contenders for this year's Serie A title. So we expect more from them. But neither team could score in the first half.

I am fed up with Juventus' defensive gameplay. In the first half, only 3 shots were made by Juventus players. Juventus had 53% ball possession. As it is Juventus' home match. So Juventus should have tried to dominate the match from the first half. I would say that if Roma manage to score the first goal of the match somehow, Juventus will not win the match. In the second half they will certainly increase the pace of attack. But even then, Roma's defense will become more difficult to break down in the second half.

I was watching the match and almost dose off due to how boring the match is. It was a goalless first half and it seems that both teams are playing the same pattern of football and they are trying to see who will be smarter than the other.

The first half is over amd if they continue in this pattern in the second half, the match might end up in a goalless draw. I believe that there will be some substitutes in the second half to make the match lively for goals to come in. I will not watch the second half because I prefer to watch Real Madrid's match that is ongoing currently.

[coinlocket$]

1st half of the game has been played between Roma and Juventus in Turin.
The game is quite boring, no goal so far and few shoot in the door.

The good thing about of the game is now in second half teams will have key players in the bench to improve the quality in the pitch.

Hard to find a good performance by a single player so far

3 matches have passed and Milan has only managed to get 2 points.
I have to say that I agree with you if Paulo Fonseca might be fired after this for the sake of the club's future to be better.
Indeed, every new coach needs to adapt to the players, but the problem is that Milan has gone through 3 matches without any changes and is even better than last season.
Paulo Fonseca currently has to intelligently fix every problem and this looks very weak and if there is no change in the next 2 matches, Milan will definitely be far behind other top clubs.
In the next match Milan will face Venezia and Milan will be the host.
If Milan still fails in this match, I am increasingly convinced that Milan this season will not be able to compete for the Scudetto title.

[Akbarkoe]

Interestingly the formation used by De Rossi is the same as that used by Motta to face each other.

This match is still 0-0 between Juventus and As Roma, the two of them still have not relented and no goals have been created in the first half, and the second half will probably find a solution to be able to find gaps in the weaknesses of each other to create goals.
Will it end in a draw?

And actually if all the news about Fonseca being involved in some problems with players at the Milan club is true then that would be very bad for the team. because without good relationships it will be difficult to form a solid squad. So the first problem that must be fixed is the relationship between the coach and the players, and also the relationship between the players and other players.  

In the last 3 matches, we still haven't seen Milan win. Milan have only lost 1 time and have drawn 2 times. What makes this team only collect 2 points in these 3 weeks. And clearly that is very bad for a big team like AC Milan. And maybe if results like this continue to happen again in the next few weeks then Fonseca's position in this team will indeed be quite threatened. Moreover, in two weeks we will see Milan playing in the UCL against Liverpool. And I think it would be much more difficult. So, Fonseca must be able to improve the Milan squad before the match.

[Ryu_Ar1]

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.

80 minutes went by but up until the crucial time I couldn't really see a good performance from either team that could be used as momentum because I think this match was quite monotonous to watch.
The attacks for both teams still look weak, leaving the ball in the middle of the pitch more often than not without any real chances so far.

As far as I can see there is only 1 on target for each club (Juventus and Roma) so far which makes this match a little sleepy for me because there is no real breakthrough and it looks like my bet will not go well in this match because seeing from the pattern of attacks carried out it seems a little difficult at this crucial time to see goals.
see a goal.

But even so my hopes remain on Juventus for the rest of the time even though things like this look a little difficult but as long as there is still time I try to believe that my bet might just be a win.

[Jossque]

Fiorentina are struggling to get a win in the league. Fiorentina have drawn with their opponents with different scores in all 3 matches they have played and have yet to win. Fiorentina drew with a last minute goal against Monza, thus extending their winless streak to 3 matches.
Genoa lost at home to Hellas Verona. I expected Genoa to win this game after a good start to the league despite dropping points to last season's champions in the first week.

[Docnaster]

90 minutes have already been played in the game between Juventus vs Roma with both teams still trying to find the back of the net before the fourth official signalled the final additional time of match. Juventus before this game have won their previous two league games of the season which was why many predicted that that they'll easily win against Daniele De Rossi's Roma but shockingly, Roma have stopped their host from getting a goal. I doubt there'll be a late drama in the game even when I know it's very possible but if both teams fails to score, Inter Milan will remain at the top of the Italian Serie A table with a better goal difference ahead of Juventus.
