Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

Increasing rumors about Milan and Fonseca.
If Milan will lose the derby with Inter, Fonseca will be likely replaced.

If the rumor is true, it will be quite fast for Fonseca to leave AC Milan.
I'm very sure that Inter Milan will have a big chance to win the match. The match will be held in Inter home and Inter can play optimally because there is no injured players for the main lineup. Inter also will try to get full points because they want to keep their hope for winning the Scudetto in this season. Meanwhile AC Milan looks not really convincing, they only won 1 single match in Serie A. They were also defeated in UCL with big scores. AC Milan doesn't show good performance lately.

Yes. Fonseca has not been able to build AC Milan into a winning machine. Milan are 10th in the Serie A table with just five points, the club's worst start since 2018. Unfortunately for coach Paulo Fonseca, AC Milan's next match is the derby della Madonnina with rivals Inter Milan. In every aspect, AC Milan are inferior. And AC Milan will probably be defeated. If that happens, the risk of coach Paulo Fonseca having to follow in the footsteps of coach Daniele De Rossi, who was recently fired by AS Roma, is very clear.
However, I think Milan should be more patient with Fonseca. Fonseca needs time to build a team after making so many changes. Firing the coach immediately will not bring good results. The reason "Fonseca may not make good wine because his grapes are not good" I want to allude to the fact that AC Milan's current players have not met expectations. Another important element that I think AC Milan is lacking is a real leader in the squad. Since Tonali left.

According to some media they already have on their radar 2 important coaches actually jobless.
Allegri or Sarri could be the coach of Milan next week, bigger chances for Sarri.

For the next coach, I think it is better to hire Tuchel or Xavi than Allegri or Sarri. Sarri may know well Serie A but he seems not a really a coach with many trophies. Meanwhile Allegri, he won many trophies but he has no good history in managing Juventus recently. However, I think it won't be easy to ensure Tuchel or Xavi to manage AC Milan. But it deserves to negotiate with them since they have no clubs as well.

If they have to replace the new coach, I think Xavi is the name they should bet on.

Increasing rumors about Milan and Fonseca.
If Milan will lose the derby with Inter, Fonseca will be likely replaced.

AC Milan got success seasons ago by focusing on free players and young ones but after winning Scudetto, their transfer strategy started to fail and an internal conflict with Paolo Maldini made it worse. They spent more money for player transfers and salary but in return they got worse results.

Then a decision to choose Fonseca as a coach is another bad decision to make their crisis worse. They were in troubles two latest seasons but rather than hiring an experienced coach who can fix these things, they picked an inexperienced coach like Fonseca, it's very bad choice.

According to some media they already have on their radar 2 important coaches actually jobless.

Allegri or Sarri could be the coach of Milan next week, bigger chances for Sarri.

I saw both of them are good coaches but in my opinion, Allegri is a better coach than Sarri. Better in tactics and ability to work in more big clubs but his latest failure in Juventus can affect his chance to join AC Milan.

AC Milan is having tough season making their next game against Inter Milan look very difficult. Despite Coach Fonseca tries their gameplay is not improving and they are far behind Inter in league. AC Milan has lost to Inter three times in a row making win unlikely. Inter strong offense led by Thuram and Martinez will be hard for Milan defense to stop. Inter will likely win 2-1 (may be) like you said and another loss could cost Fonseca his job.

This season Serie A is starting to look a little different from last season where the bottom teams last season are starting to look up after four and five games this season. And for the Milan vs Inter match this weekend I also think that Milan will find it very difficult to beat Inter who still have quite good strength this season, especially Inter who are playing at home will definitely try to win because this is a derby match for them. And I also think that Fonseca still has a pretty tough job this season because he has to be able to change Milan's performance to be better so that he can still work as a coach in the Milan team for the coming season.

There is indeed a slight change from the teams in Serie A, they can show a slight improvement. However, this is either because the big teams cannot improve or they have declined so that the gap now looks thinner.
AC Milan will be a tough match, they will face the team they last beat in 2022, after that they never won again when facing the team that holds the status of defending champion this season.
I predict this will be a very fierce duel, with Inter Milan as the favorite. AC Milan must work harder if they want to win in this hot match. Maybe luck can be a determining factor, but the problem is they can't just rely on luck. Because for me luck will come when they play well.

The Derby della Madonnina will be presented in the 5th week of Serie A this season. It will be an interesting match because there is prestige at stake in this match. The Derby della Madonnina is one of the biggest derbies in Serie A which will bring together city teams Inter Milan and AC Milan.
Currently AC Milan is not in a very good condition, there is even news that they will immediately fire their coach if they lose this match, while Inter Milan looks better even though I think it is not better than last season.

Looking at their meeting record, in the last 5 matches AC Milan has always lost when facing Inter Milan, even last season they had to lose with a very big score of 5-1. They definitely want to improve their meeting record when meeting their rivals, but with their current situation, I am personally not sure.

The derby della Madonnina will be a testament to who the real ruler of Milan is, the derby match will always be an interesting match so far and both teams will usually field their best squad in the match considering the prestige and also the emotions are often present in the derby matches, so far Intermilan is in high consistency in the league by being unbeaten in Serie A and even they are able to keep up with Manchester City in the UCL and show their capacity as one of the strongest teams in Italy, a different condition was experienced by Milan ahead of the derby which so far Milan has not been able to be consistent in the league as well as in the UCL which has just lost to Liverpool, I think the higher motivation at the moment is of course owned by Inter Milan and not with Milan which continues to get criticism from the fans after the series of bad results they get,  Fonsesca must be able to win the derby match later to be able to strengthen his position as the current Milan coach,  because if reflect on what happened to Pioli last season who lost the derby match and got fired at the end of the season, then Fonsesca fate will also be very determined by the results of the derby match later.

I don't see any possibility of AC Milan team getting points against Inter Milan. The Milan team played well in the pre-season matches. But the overall performance of this team has been very poor since the beginning of the season. The team has managed to win only one out of 4 matches. We don't see good performances from Milan players in a single match. The team lost against Liverpool in the Champions League match.

On the other hand, Inter Milan's performance is somewhat erratic, but the overall performance of this team is very strong. However, Inter Milan's performances have been somewhat erratic as the team tries to do well in both the Champions League and Serie A. Team Milan coach is trying his best to stabilize Inter Milan's performance. I guess it won't be too difficult for Inter Milan to win against AC Milan right now.

[mamesso]

If that happens, the risk of coach Paulo Fonseca having to follow in the footsteps of coach Daniele De Rossi, who was recently fired by AS Roma, is very clear.

After being officially appointed as Stefano Pioli replacement, Paulo Fonseca has yet to bring Milan to a convincing performance this season. From the five official matches played (Serie A and UCL), Milan has only managed to win once, draw twice and lose twice. The directors are very worried about the current condition of the team, his career with Milan will soon end if he fails to win the Derby Della Madonnina. On the other hand, Inter Milan are in top form, they are unbeaten in their last five matches, including when they held Manchester City to a 0-0 draw in the Champions League. Looking at the performance of both teams, Milan chances of winning the Derby this time are very small.

However, I think Milan should be more patient with Fonseca. Fonseca needs time to build a team after making so many changes. Firing the coach immediately will not bring good results. The reason "Fonseca may not make good wine because his grapes are not good" I want to allude to the fact that AC Milan's current players have not met expectations.

Everyone involved in the team has high expectations for Milan to perform well again in the future, management will take action on what is happening to Milan now. Firing Fonseca is not a bad idea, Roma has done it before. Some great names are still available at the moment, Maurizio Sarri, Edin Terzic and Thomas Tuchel could all be good options as potential replacements for Fonseca, perhaps they could make the wine a little better with their talent and experience.

On paper, Inter Milan deserves to be the favorite in the derby della Madonnina match, there are several quite logical reasons why Simone Inzaghi squad is the favorite. First, in terms of the head to head record of the two teams in the last 5 matches, Inter Milan won all of them. Second, Inter Milan is undefeated this season, while AC Milan has only managed to win one in 4 matches. Third, the results of the two teams matches in the Champions League provide an up to date picture of their strengths. AC Milan lost to Liverpool, while their city rivals managed to hold Manchester City to a draw. It seems that these three reasons are enough to consider if want to bet on the derby match. Of course, this prediction could be wrong and completely wrong because Paulo Fonseca squad also has the potential to make a surprise, but the chances are very low.

Are you going to bet under 2.5 on Juventus win or bet on the overall total? If you bet on under 2.5 on Juventus win, you will definitely get very small odds around @1.12. But if you bet on asian total under 2.5, you still get pretty big odds.

No you got me wrong. I meant total goals, not the number of goals Juventus score.    Otherwise there would be no meaning to take such risk for only 1.12 odds. This is football, we never know what would happen.


I thought we would get bored in yesterday's games. But it was the opposite. Especially in the Verona - Torino game. A red card, missed penalty and 5 goals... I think Verona fought really well even though they got the red card very early.

Today it will hopefully be fun to watch Juventus - Napoli game. I would enjoy it more if my bet wins as well.    If I get too bored in the first half then maybe I would watch Fenerbahçe - Galatasaray game a little. I'm curious about Osimhen especially.

today there will be a very special match which is the one that many fans and bettors are waiting for and it is juventus napoli a match which according to my predictions will feature the attackers who will score many goals, so my bet for today will be a good first half goal, it is a good opportunity to take a good bet

I am a little doubtful that there will be many goals in this match because if we look at the beginning of this season Juventus tends to play safe when facing strong opponents as well as Napoli so I think both teams will not score many goals in the match later.
Juventus will play at home they should be more favored but I think that is not excessive because overall Juventus at the beginning of this season has not found its best performance as well as Napoli.
These are both teams that have made a lot of changes and both have not found their best performance so I think this match will be very balanced and there is also a possibility that the final result will be a draw.

This match will certainly captivate our eyes to watch the match, where both teams are currently quite solid under the leadership of their new head coaches, talking between Napoli and Juventus of course we don't want to miss out by putting it for our own victory, but if you look at the over it is quite doubtful with the existing odds, and if you look at Juventus' defense so far it has been quite solid in maintaining their dominance in the game until now there have been no goals scored against them after 4 matches, as well as Napoli they are also solid in their defense and in my opinion this will be an under match.

In my opinion both teams are having a hard time scoring goals in this match and they won't want to miss out on leading in the first half and completely and I put this match under because out of five meetings in Turin only over 2.5 once and this is quite doubtful for the match later and in my opinion under 2.5 is better in this match.

Of course, this prediction could be wrong and completely wrong because Paulo Fonseca squad also has the potential to make a surprise, but the chances are very low.

Good analysis and all of that can be strengthened by the reason that Milan has conceded 6 goals in 4 games and that means Milan defense is very weak at the moment. So Inter will probably score at least 3 goals in the match and maybe I will bet on Inter -1 with odds @2.09.

Are you going to bet under 2.5 on Juventus win or bet on the overall total? If you bet on under 2.5 on Juventus win, you will definitely get very small odds around @1.12. But if you bet on asian total under 2.5, you still get pretty big odds.

I know that and it's not that I misunderstood but just wanted to make sure that you're getting the exact odds.

Considering the poor results of AC Milan since the start of the season, I'll not be surprised if Paulo Fonseca is shown the exit door when his side loses against their city rivals Inter Milan tomorrow. Statistics don't lie just like the one you attached to this post so it's very safe to say that stats favours Inter Milan to get the better of AC Milan tomorrow. Tomorrow's game gives AC Milan boss the opportunity to shut his critics up but I fear Inter Milan will give him to opportunity to do that. It's a very strong game to find an accurate prediction but I'll go for an Inter Milan win or draw.

Actually, looking at the performance and attack schemes carried out by Fonseca, it is very good but the quality of attacks carried out by Fonseca's quality is actually very good but the attacks are too reckless, which is precisely the good quality of attack is not accompanied by their poor defense.

They managed to get 9 goals but 6 goals went into their goal which made their performance not good in terms of final results.
Currently, there are some strong candidates who are said to be Fonseca's replacement but there is still no further clarity on this, but when Milan's performance remains the same as now I don't think we can expect anything more from Fonseca and it is possible that he will join De Rosi as the coach who was fired earlier this season.
Given his current situation the Milan derby could be the final say on whether Fonseca stays or is replaced by a new coach.

[MAAManda]

When AC Milan play in league, they press up front and leave a lot of space at the back, which is why there is a high probability of goals in their matches. However, I think AC Milan will play a bit more cautious football in the Milan Derby on Sunday, because AC Milan pressing up front against Inter will not yield good results for them. Considering that in recent years, the meetings between the two teams have been mostly goal scoring and Inter have been the winners, I don't think this match will be much different. Especially, I think Inter will continue their good football after the Champions League match they played during the week and will win against AC Milan. This match could be the end of Fonseca.

In their last 6 meetings, Inter Milan has always managed to beat AC Milan, they look superior to AC Milan both at home and away. This match will also be a home match for Inter Milan, and as everyone expects, Inter Milan will probably maintain their winning tradition against AC Milan and add to their winning streak against AC Milan to 7 times. Poor Paulo Fonseca, he must be under a lot of pressure, I agree that the match against Inter Milan might be the end for him.

Results of yesterday's games:

Cagliari 0 - 2 Empoli (Empoli are off to a good start this season, and it's unbelievable that they're on top)

Verona 2 - 3 Torino (Torino are off to a good start, and they're on top)

Yes, I never thought that teams like Torino and Empoli could start the season so well. Because so far these two teams have never lost against any team in Serie A. Even against quite strong teams, Torino and Empoli were able to survive by getting a draw. Just as Torino was able to hold a team like Milan to a draw and Torino was also able to beat Atalanta, which is currently performing quite well too. Apart from that, Empoli is no less great than Torino, because Empoli also managed to beat Roma, hold Bologna to a draw, and were also able to hold Juventus to a draw. So with the results achieved by Empoli and Torino so far, you could say that this is quite an extraordinary achievement. Because remembering that last season Torino and Empoli were teams that were not particularly superior. Because last season Torino was only able to finish in 9th position in Serie A, while Empoli was almost relegated last season, but fortunately that didn't happen because Empoli managed to finish in 17th position in Serie A. That's why seeing these two teams start the season quite well can be said to be surprising to many people. So hopefully Torino and Empoli can continue to maintain this. Because it would definitely be very exciting if, for example, there were new competitors for the Scudetto this season.

Both teams is under new managers but their performance were very impressive and i considers they are equally strong but in the term of points Napoli is slightly better than Juventus because they have already to collect 9 points from 3 wins and Juventus only can collect 2 win but Juventus in the good shape because they were still cleansheet and unbeated so this match actually is hard to predicted

Thiago Motta has succesfully to makes Juventus defensive lines is very solid and so far Juventus as the team with the strongest defense in Serie A and although from meeting records Juventus has poor records from Napoli but this time the bookies placed Juventus as the favourite and about the outcomes of this match i have opposite prediction just like you that my prediction is Juventus will be the winner of this match so for betting options Juventus win seems good pick or under 2.5 goals

That is just the football pattern of AC Milan because they are more attacking than defending and that is why they concede goals in most of their matches and this season, apart from their match against Venezia they conceded goals in the rest of the games they've played in the the Serie A. Inter Milan seems not too stable this season but since they haven't lost a match it means they are still very strong as compared to AC Milan because out of the 4 matches they have played in the serie A they won 2 and drew 2 whereas AC Milan won just 1 match lost 1 and drew 2 and for Inter Milan to draw Manchester City in the champions league shows how strong they have become. The Milan derby is most likely to go in favour of Inter Milan because they have become more better team than AC Milan in recent years. Paulo Fonseca is under pressure as AC Milan coach and if the team doesn't improve any time soon then his job might be at stake.

Cagliari 0 - 2 Empoli (Empoli are off to a good start this season, and it's unbelievable that they're on top)

Verona 2 - 3 Torino (Torino are off to a good start, and they're on top)

Both Empoli and Torino are joining top position range of Serie A but will one of them become another Bologna in this season. Last season, Bologna surprised all of us by ending at the fourth position and having a ticket to Champions League. This season, Napoli is back but AC Milan and AS Roma have big troubles. This give chances to some medium and small clubs to make big surprise like Bologna did in the last season.

They are doing good and can maintain it, and they can look Bologna in Serie A, Girona in La Liga last season or even Brighton in Premier League, to see that even small clubs sometimes can join top of their domestic leagues.

[snipie]

Yes, I never thought that teams like Torino and Empoli could start the season so well. Because so far these two teams have never lost against any team in Serie A.

Torino played their games against Milan, Atalanta, Venezia, Lecce and Verona. The first two games were important and hard until we saw how bad Milan started the season.
Empoli didn't face hard teams except Juventus and Roma. Obviously Roma wasn't doing well that's why they sacked their coach..
Torino and Empoli are doing fine for the moment but I wonder for how long? I expect them to drop a bit later with the awakening of Milan and Roma and maybe Fiorentina later.

[coinlocket$]

Today is the day for the 1st time when Conte will come back as opponent in Juventus stadium.
The game between Juventus and Napoli will be crucial for both teams and coaches.

If Juventus will end up losing the game, fans will may go against Motta and may ask to the managers whey they don't brought back Conte in Turin.
If Napoli will end losing the game, fans of Napoli will start questioning if they will have a good season at all.

It will be interesting a lot more than the 3 usual point for the game of this evening.
