Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Raflesia]

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.

Yup, it looks like it will be difficult and indeed when betting on Juventus it looks like you should be prepared to lose your money in this match because it is likely that one point will be obtained in today's match.

Both teams played quite carefully making this match less exciting where as you said the ball was more in the middle. It's just that this 1 point is certainly still quite good especially with heavy opponents and this is included in the big match this week in my opinion 1 point is still quite good for both.
Now the match has entered extra time and it is precisely if you look at the last 10 minutes that Roma changed the scheme by taking control of the game even though it did not have much impact because it was minimal opportunities and poor finishing that made the opportunities owned could not be maximized properly.

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.

Fiorentina doesn't seem to be able to get full points at the start of this season. And they have to be satisfied with the draw they managed to get in the 3 matches at the start of this season. And that's still quite better than losing. And currently the Juventus vs Roma match has just finished. And the score ended in a goalless draw. And I'm quite bored watching this match. Because both teams played equally carefully. With this result, Juventus moved back from first place in the standings and made Inter Milan return to the top of the standings. Meanwhile, Roma got worse results this season compared to last season. Because currently Roma has lost 1 time and drawn 2 times. This shows that De Rossi is having a little difficulty shaping this squad into a better shape than it is currently. And last season it seemed like De Rossi showed good results because he only continued the squad that had been formed by Mourinho.

Everything is getting worse for Osimhen and it seems he is going to have a bad season in Napoli if he stays in this team. Osimhen doesn't have a good relationship with Napoli and he just wants to leave the team. While he didn't join PSG the offer he got from Chelsea was also rejected because they didn't give him a good amount of money to make this player leave and now Napoli is angry to have a player like him.
They have Lukaku and now they removed the name of Osimhen from the list and they gave the shirt of Osimhen to Lukaku.

It's really sad Napoli had to go this far treating osimhen this way after all he has done for the team, I even think now it would have been even much better for him if he had left since last season he got an offer from Chelsea but he ignored and renewed his contract at Napoli, now he's been treated less of a top player. He has an offer from the Saudi pro league which I see would have been a fair deal way better than that which he was getting from Chelsea, it would have been better if he he had gone as staying in Napoli at this time will be of no benefit for him, before the transfer windows are close he should make the best move so his career doesn't suffer at Napoli another season.

I think he has made a very bad decision by staying or I should say actually not leaving Napoli. the thing is Antonio Conte understood that he is going to leave and even if he does not leave, he is probably not going to perform very well in the next season. so Conte did not want to rely on him. that's why Napoli brought in players. I thought it was almost certain that he is going to leave Napoli and join Chelsea, but he did not. Now Antonio Conte did not play him in the last 2 matches if I am not wrong. So things are not looking very good for Osimhen.

It Probably would have been better if he had left for any club,  probably would have been better if he even went for any Saudi club.
Because staying in the Napoli club is definitely not going to be great for him right now. unless he gets a lot of chances surprisingly, also surprisingly he performs really well - if you ask me honestly I do not see that happening in the near future. Cause Osimhen was not included in Conte's official 23-man Serie A squad for the 24-25 season. So the only way he is going to get a lot of chances is if Napoli faces injury problem and Conte needs him to perform.

0-0 between Juventus and Roma.
The game was very weak and nothing relevant happened for the entire game.

Now we have 2 weeks break and new players will have time to get their strength up, after the national break a new champions will start.

After 3 games now we have no team with only wins, not sure it is a good thing.

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.

It is still not a bad result for Juventus, at least if you can’t take all 3 points it’s better to share the points. Juventus are still unbeaten and it’s a good way to start the season. I had a feeling that they would find it difficult to win Roma easily despite winning all their previous games, the coach still needs to fully develop the team to comfortably compete with bigger teams.

The competition this season will be intense the way things are going now and we could see teams like Napoli, Juventus and Ac Milan and Inter challenge for the trophy this season. All teams look ready and sharp and no team will want to make any mistakes from this early stage if they want to challenge for the title.

Osimhen made his decision but I don't think we have the right to say it's a bad one. He is a man on his won and he get to decide what's best for him. Do you think if other clubs came for him with good offer he is going to reject it? Definitely no, but Chelsea that were last man standing offer a half salary compare to what he is earning in Napoli. You can't progrrss with cut in money, that's not fair and I don't think Chelsea were even ready they would have increased the wages in his terms.

It Probably would have been better if he had left for any club,  probably would have been better if he even went for any Saudi club.

He should go to Saudi Arabia, don't you think if he was interested he was going to left immediately when he won the Seria A for Napoli after many years. He is not interested in any Saudi club because that's a place for retirement and considering how young Osimhen still looks, he better go to a Premier League teams to win games and make more records before retirement. I don't see anything wrong with Osimhen not going to settle down for less.

Honestly, even though this is a big match, I don't feel that this match is interesting to watch. The tempo is a little slower, both clubs are still waiting too much because they are too careful and there are very few deadly attacks making this match seem ordinary for a big match.
Looking at the chances that were owned there was only 1 on target for Juventus and 1 for Roma until the match was over and in my opinion it was not very interesting for a big match.

But at least with this result Roma still have hope because at least 1 point for them is a little better than not getting any points at all especially their position in the standings is currently not too favorable for them.

[imamusma]

Paulo Fonseca has 2 weeks to reflect on his team failure to win in the last 3 matches, if he fails to create a turnaround in performance, then Paulo Fonseca will be labeled as a manager with poor tactics and unworthy of coaching AC Milan. Last season, AC Milan under Stefano Pioli looked a little better, and managed to finish in second place in the standings. If Paulo Fonseca does not immediately find a solution to this chaos, then the management should immediately look for a new manager, to save the team from a worse slump. So far, AC Milan has conceded 6 goals, indicating that their defense is very porous, in my opinion that is the first thing that must be fixed.

We realize that the competition for the Scudetto will be very competitive, and also has the potential to involve several top Serie A teams. Losing many points will hinder AC Milan steps to enter the competition, and Inter Milan and Juventus seem to be competing tightly at the top of the standings until the end of the season. Meanwhile, AC Milan currently looks like a reunion club for former Chelsea players, the arrival of Moratta and Tammy Abraham adds to the existing list.

Seria A is definitely not for mediocre coaches because there's a whole lot to work on. Winning the scudetto comes with pressuring stress and we just have to support the winning clubs. Daniele De Rossi doing what in AS Roma? He's incompetent for the main job because there are more pressing issues at hand and we clearly understands the basics to follow. The game ended in goal-less draw and this have been nothing but a dissapointing results for Juventus and AS Roma. We understand that the Old Lady's are not ready to dropped from the top rankings on the table and falling below, they need to stay focused and winning comes with pressuring activities.

I would say it was a good result for Roma. Juventus team was considered as the favorite in the match. Moreover, the match was Juventus' home match. Even then Roma team managed to get 1 point from the match. It's not a bad result for Roma. Because so far the performance of the Roma team is weak. In the first two matches, Roma dropped points against two weaker teams. So sharing points with a big team like Juventus is not a bad result for Roma.

I couldn't be happier with Juventus' performance. We saw a better performance than Juventus in the first two matches. If you want to win the title, you have to continue the winning streak. If the performance is irregular, Juventus will fall behind in the competition with Inter Milan. However, at the moment Inter Milan and Juventus are equal in points.

I don't know why Juventus played a defensive strategy despite it being Juventus' home match. Juventus players managed only 8 shots in the entire match and interestingly only one shot was on target. We don't see a better performance than Vlahovic in this match.

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.

Fiorentina are the only team to have drawn in three consecutive matches. Fiorentina drew against Parma in the first match. I would say Fiorentina performed well enough against Parma. However, Fiorentina could not play well against Venezia in the second match. Fiorentina could not score a single goal in the match against Venezia. Fiorentina players also failed to break Venezia's weak defense.

Venezia lost today's match against Monza only because of mistakes by their defenders. Fiorentina could easily get 3 points from this match if the defenders play a little better. Monza's players made only 4 shots in this match. Meanwhile, the team managed to score two goals. After leading 2-1 at the end of the first half, Monza played completely defensively in the second half. However, Fiorentina managed to get 1 point from this match by scoring a goal after 90 minutes.

[Leviathan.007]

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.

Now we understand why Conte was trying to hire Lukaku during the summer while they have Osimhen on this team. Napoli was playing against Parma and they were about to lose the match to Parma with a 1-0 result while Parma scored a goal from the penalty kick but Conte used Lukaku and he scored the second goal for Napoli to totally change the game and he had a perfect start in Napoli.

Roma replaced Lukaku by Dovbyk who so far does not adapt well to Roma attacking system. They are actually missing contributions of Lukaku with very bad attacking performance of their attacking players in first three matches. Lukaku and Conte can have promising cooperation in Napoli because they have good time together in Inter Milan years ago.

With Lukaku, Napoli can avoid fear that they will fail to replace Osimhen who already moved to Saudi Arabia to get better salary. Napoli might not be able to win Scudetto this season like they did two seasons ago but rejoining top four of Serie A is very possible.

No wonder AS Roma played hard and really guarded all Juventus players tightly, they know that Juventus this season is very different from last season, so AS Roma really watched every movement of the ball when Juventus attacked and in this match AS Roma was forced to get points at least to win the match, even though they had to share points with the home team, but this result is a bad record for De Rossi and AS Roma, because they are still at the bottom of the standings and where it is far from their target so it is very clear that De Rossi has not been able to bring change to Roma this season.

[Hirose UK]

It's really weird to see Conte really interested with Lukaku while they already have Osimhen, Conte didn't give any chance for Osimhen, while Lukaku after has been signed, now he plays for his first debut. Lukaku should be man of the match since he saves Napoli from lose.

I'm sure Osimhen will leave Napoli, but we still don't know which team he will join. I think he will not join to Chelsea because if Chelsea wants him, it would be a swap deal. I guess Osimhen will go to PSG instead.

Have you forgotten that Antonio Conte and Lukaku were previously together when they were in the Inter Milan squad and there Lukaku was key player who could provide many goal for Inter Milan in Serie-A and UCL so it is only natural that we see good response from Conte to Lukaku.
Moreover, Lukaku arrival in Napoli was Conte own wish, even though there were several things that made it possible for the transfer to fail but in the end Conte still fought for Lukaku until he was successfully obtained.
Osimhen himself is not included in Conte plan to strengthen Napoli this season and we can see that efforts to sell Osimhen have been made for some time and there was an option to exchange players, from all this we can conclude how Napoli really doesn't need Osimhen anymore even though he had brought Napoli to win the Scudetto.
Initially I thought it was still appropriate for Osimhen to stay but the reality actually gave quite astonishing difference.

But actually holding a strong home team like Juventus to a draw is also a good sign for the Roma club. It's just that overall the Roma team is still in a difficult position. Because they only collected 2 points at the start of this season. The season is still long and big changes will continue to occur in the standings. But Roma cannot afford to lose any more points than this. Because every time they lose points it means it will be increasingly difficult for them to return to a better ranking.

Roma, Milan, Atalanta and Fiorentina are not currently ranked in the top 10 but I am sure that will change. After the international break, I am sure that these four teams will be able to recover and improve their ranking in the Serie A standings.

[beerlover]

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.

Clear that Milan had a problem that went beyond the manager itself. I am not saying Pioli was good or the new one is bad or anything like that, both could be good, both could be bad, one could be good while the other bad, it's irrelevant. When you have tow managers who both get bad results, it might be about the team and the squad building that you do.

There is a potential that Milan needs a whole new squad, or even if not the whole squad they may need a lot of new players instead of the current ones, which would take years to make changes. Obviously three or four decent transfers could suddenly turn a team into a great one, but just a manager change wasn't the thing they need, which is why they are still losing.

But actually holding a strong home team like Juventus to a draw is also a good sign for the Roma club. It's just that overall the Roma team is still in a difficult position. Because they only collected 2 points at the start of this season. The season is still long and big changes will continue to occur in the standings. But Roma cannot afford to lose any more points than this. Because every time they lose points it means it will be increasingly difficult for them to return to a better ranking.

Their match is balancing and Roma got a good opportunity in very last minute with a shot from Angelino but it's not matter because finally they ended it with a draw. It's an acceptable result for both teams especially Roma with their bad records at Juventus' home stadium last 10 years. Juventus need some more matches for new players to adapt to their club and the same for Roma.

Roma, Milan, Atalanta and Fiorentina are not currently ranked in the top 10 but I am sure that will change. After the international break, I am sure that these four teams will be able to recover and improve their ranking in the Serie A standings.

They are strongest teams in Serie A and have better player resources than other clubs so they can normalize Serie A ranking table by climbing up to top 6 very soon. Atalanta and Fiorentina had good performances in latest seasons but they have to be careful in this season after losing some star players. Roma and Milan look to have better player resources and they only need to improve performances after international break.

We have just finished three rounds in Serie A with all teams are facing troubles only Juventus are going through with three clean sheets which is impressive performance from them, but things are not well-balanced for having better results it's too early to call about who is going to be champions because we all know Serie A is one of the wired leagues where things can take change.

Lukaku at the Napoli is surely a good deal for both stakeholders because now he can play better and give his best for Napoli in absence of the Osimhen as he is now out of squad until January.

Napoli is currently struggling, but things will be surely on track for them because now they are having good coach and their squad depth is also good with this most chances we will be giving them chance of staying into top ranks which will be also good for them after end of this season.

In general, it was a match where both teams weighed each other down and played equally. I thought Juventus would win this match because they were playing at home and had the support of the crowd. Despite this, they could not score and the match ended in a goalless draw. Roma was the team that took the advantage in this match, a draw away from home is an advantageous score.
