Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Hirose UK]

Como team is performing well today against Atalanta. The Como team is yet to win a match this season. This party is not a strong party. So in today's match we all considered Atalanta as the favorite. This is Atalanta's home match so we expected to see Atalanta's dominance. But Atalanta players are not able to perform well in this match.

The match is currently tied at 1-1. Atalanta led 1-0 at the end of the first half. After scoring in the 18th minute of the first half, Atalanta's players did not try much to score. Atalanta played defensively. But Como players are not playing defensive at all today. Como scored in the first minute of the second half to level the match at 1-1. And COmo scored another goal in the 56th minute. And 2-1 Como is now ahead.

Yes Como previously did not have single win and in 4 matches only got 2 draws and 2 defeats, but today Como played very well in the away match against Atalanta and ended the game with winning score of 2 - 3.
I did not expect Como to be able to play this well even though in the first half Atalanta was far superior and more dominant in possession and play, I considered Atalanta as the favorite and they could win easily because they played at home and Como was the lower team, but in reality Atalanta disappointed me.
I took win for Atalanta and also Asian Total Over 2.5 and Atalanta victory could not be realized and they lost points in this match, for their previous meetings showed Atalanta always won by landslide but today everything changed and Como recorded their first victory against Atalanta.

Varane retirement announcement: The decision has been made

Raphael Varane has decided to retire from professional football with immediate effect, bringing to an end a storied career that saw him turn out with Real Madrid and Manchester United among others.

According to Matteo Moretto, the centre-back has decided to hang up his boots at the age of just 31.

Le Parisien had reported that Varane was on the brink of terminating his contract with Serie A side Como, which was only signed in the summer, and that he was considering quitting the game.

Moretto has now confirmed the decision via a tweet.

“Raphael Varane is retiring from football. The decision has been made,” he reports.

Why is Raphael Varane retiring from football?
Varane had been plagued with injury problems in the recent years of his career and following the 2022 World Cup, in which he gave a titanic performance for France in their failed attempt to defend the trophy, he elected to quit international football in a bid to prolong his club career.

let's say that Varanne's adventure lasted very little, who knows if he decided to go to Como to go on holiday, jokes aside I think that his injuries and age influenced the player's choice to abandon playing football, then let's say that he could still have some good matches but if he decided like this he will have his reasons

[Jatiluhung]

Conte knows that Napoli need a quick solution to overcome their problems. So Conte took a mature striker who didn't need much time to adapt to a new team. And Lukaku is the answer. So now we can see that Napoli is truly great thanks to the composition used by Conte.

But to be honest, I also think the same as you. But I also realize that in the short term using Lukaku is the best. Because we saw that AS Roma and Inter Milan also managed to get good results in attack when they borrowed Lukaku from Chelsea. Maybe Conte really understands Italian football best. That is why his career was much better when he became a coach in Italian teams. Like when he used to coach Inter Milan.

Napoli's pace is quite good because Conte was able to revive the team's performance from the slump that occurred last season. Conte is one of the great coaches and has a good strategy to revive the team's performance, so far Napoli has managed to win three matches and one defeat and one draw which made Napoli sit in second place in the standings. When compared to Inter Milan's performance, of course Napoli has performed better so far. However, the position of the standings table will continue to change and change because there are still many matches.

For that, Conte is highly expected by fans to be able to revive the team's dignity to become a competitor at the top of the standing. Lukaku is the right choice because he is able to make a good contribution to the team and answer the criticism thrown at him with a good appearance. For me this season it will be quite difficult to determine who will win the scudetto because the defending champion has not been able to maximize his strength. Maybe there will be a surprise and it could happen.

Well of course we are still at the beginning of the season. And the journey this season is still very long. And big changes will continue to occur in the standings. Because sometimes there are teams that start well but they get worse towards the middle of the season and there are also those that, on the contrary, start badly but then they start to recover slowly towards the middle of the season.

Napoli are currently starting quite well. but we never know whether they will be consistent with their current performance or they will experience a decline. And currently it is still too difficult to predict which team will ultimately win the title in Serie A. Because I still see a lot of unpredictable situations at the start of this season. Inter Milan's declining performance and then the rise of AC Milan can also be seen. Likewise with Juventus where they still don't look perfect but yeah they are quite good. But I have high hopes for Napoli this time. Because I see Conte as a quite trustworthy coach. His experience in Serie A is beyond doubt.

Your insightful comment about the current status of Serie A and specifically Napoli's performance under the leadership of Conte is very interesting to read.

It's true that Conte's experiences and strategies have helped in pulling Napoli out of last season's slump. Their current standing in the league is indeed a testament to this. The contributions of players like Lukaku shouldn't be undermined, players like him are integral to the revival of the team and its performance on field.

However, as the season is still at its beginning stages, there is still a lot of unpredictability with likely shakeups in the standings. The fluctuating performances of Inter Milan, Juventus and the rise of AC Milan add to this uncertainty.

Nevertheless, Napoli's current performance and potential future consistency makes it an exciting team to look out for. We'll have to see how Conte's strategies unfold in the coming matches. His record in Serie A certainly does instill a certain level of trust and expectations.

Como team is performing well today against Atalanta. The Como team is yet to win a match this season. This party is not a strong party. So in today's match we all considered Atalanta as the favorite. This is Atalanta's home match so we expected to see Atalanta's dominance. But Atalanta players are not able to perform well in this match.

Como is not a strong team and they only promoted to Serie A this season. Losing points to an opponent like Como is a bad performance and result from Atalanta that is one of representative clubs for Serie A in Champions League. With Como, this draw against a strong team in Serie A is a motivating result for their fight to stay in Serie A after this season ending.

The match is currently tied at 1-1. Atalanta led 1-0 at the end of the first half. After scoring in the 18th minute of the first half, Atalanta's players did not try much to score. Atalanta played defensively. But Como players are not playing defensive at all today. Como scored in the first minute of the second half to level the match at 1-1. And COmo scored another goal in the 56th minute. And 2-1 Como is now ahead.

Atalanta have big problems with their defense system, with 11 conceded goals after first 5 matches in Serie A. Their attacking system worked well with 10 goals so far, but with a weak defense system, they have a negative goal difference now and only have 6 points which are only 1 point more than a weak team like Como.

Serie A began this season with wild changes in performances of big clubs including Atalanta and with participation of Atalanta in Champions League, their performances in domestic league can be affected more badly.

Conte actually didn't always have good luck when he was the coach of a club. for example, when he was coach of Atalanta and Tottenham. But he has a long and impressive history when he was Juventus coach. Because he led Juventus to win the title for 3 consecutive seasons in Serie A at that time. And then he also led Chelsea to win the title. And then continued with another good career as a coach at Inter Milan which brought him together with Lukaku. And won the title in Serie A at that time. After leaving Inter Milan, he no longer won any titles with the team he coached, namely Tottenham. But it could be that this season he will try to bring Napoli to win the title in Serie A. Currently, Napoli also does not have a busy schedule like Juventus, Inter Milan and AC Milan and Atalanta. For this reason, Napoli can focus more on the domestic league and achieve good results.

Incredible result this evening in the postponed (for rain) from yesterday game.
Como has managed to beat incredbly Atalanta in an away game for 2-3

The season for Atalanta so far is a disaster, after 6 games they should be the worst defense in Serie A with the biggest amount of goal conceded.

Atalanta ended the first half 1-0 ahead, however. 20 minutes after the second half started, the score became 3-1. There is nothing more natural than questioning the defenders who conceded 3 goals in 20 minutes. I guess the last thing you would expect is to be defeated at home in the Como match. Atalanta is having a terrible start to the season.

Since the beginning of the second half Atalanta's performance was very bad, they seemed to lose focus on the match so they had to concede 3 goals in less than 20 minutes.

This is Como's first win, quite important for the Como team who just got promoted this season but I don't think that this win is proof of their improved performance but instead I think that they were lucky against the Atalanta team who were in a very bad state so that Como could win.

However, Atalanta attacked very well from the start and their performance was not that good which resulted in them losing the match. However, Como played relatively well and their attack was excellent, which allowed them to score two goals themselves in the match. Moreover, while stopping the attack of Atlanta's team player, he was unfortunately the victim of an own goal, and due to this own goal, Coma won the match with a goal difference of 3/2.

Of course, it has to be admitted that Atlanta's opposition team was lucky because of which they got the win, moreover, it is not possible to win against a strong team like Atlanta, but Atlanta will follow their best performance in the next matches.

At the start of the match, Atalanta actually performed quite well. And they also managed to score quite early, namely in the 18th minute. But everything changed in the second half. because Como actually performed better in the second half. Como's attack efficiency also increased quite rapidly. What is clear is that I did not expect Atalanta to lose to Como. The 2-3 score is actually quite difficult to believe considering the difference in strength and depth between these two clubs is actually quite clear. It looks like Como is also trying to get up and wants to escape the relegation zone. And thanks to this 1 win, Como has now managed to get out of the relegation zone and climb to 15th place. But in the next match, Como will also face Verona, who is also quite strong this season. and if Como succeeds in winning the match again, Como will rise to a higher ranking quickly.

This is Atalanta's home match so we expected to see Atalanta's dominance. But Atalanta players are not able to perform well in this match.

I'm very disappointed at Atalanta performance on this match because this is the most shameful defeat they have received on this season losing to Como that has never won any of there matches since the beginning of the season, actually because of how good Atalanta is, a had a believe that they would win the match which even made me to bet on the match because I always love the seriousness Atalanta has on there matches but unfortunate they could not maintain there usual pattern, truly football is really unpredictable because of all the matches Atalanta has played, this match was one of there Match I can beat my chest to say that they would win but they failed, so actually Como have started to realize that they need to make an improvement, so it will be good for them if they would continue this way.

Atalanta is having a terrible start to the season.

Previously I thought Atlanta would get an easy victory in the match because they only faced a team of Como's class, but what happened in the match was actually beyond our expectations where they had to suffer a pretty painful defeat from a team that was in the relegation zone, the victory over Atlanta made Como can now get out of the relegation zone with 5 points in Serie A, the postponement of the match should have given enough time for Atlanta to prepare their team well after they managed to draw with Arsenal in the Champions League, but what we saw in the match did not show a good mentality and performance from Atalanta, actually Atlanta started the match well and even without waiting long they were able to break into the goal of Como in the 18th minute, But entering the second half it was clear that Atlanta's game began to decline and provided an opportunity for Como to perform impressively which was finally able to make a comeback and win 3-2 over Atalanta, this defeat clearly gives a bad signal to atlanta performance this season, especially in the next match they will face Bologna who can be said to have a balanced performance with them at the moment.

[Arenga pinnata]

I'm very disappointed at Atalanta performance on this match because this is the most shameful defeat they have received on this season losing to Como that has never won any of there matches since the beginning of the season, actually because of how good Atalanta is, a had a believe that they would win the match which even made me to bet on the match because I always love the seriousness Atalanta has on there matches but unfortunate they could not maintain there usual pattern, truly football is really unpredictable because of all the matches Atalanta has played, this match was one of there Match I can beat my chest to say that they would win but they failed, so actually Como have started to realize that they need to make an improvement, so it will be good for them if they would continue this way.

For Como, this is a breath of fresh air that they got when they had difficulty getting points at the start of this season. And this is the first full point that Como has got this season. But for Atalanta they were really unlucky because they had to lose in front of their own supporters. And Atalanta even lost with a score that was actually quite surprising. I almost couldn't believe the second half of that match. I didn't even concentrate on watching the match since the end of the first half. Because I think Atalanta will win. But well, in a short time in the second half Como was able to equalize the score. Como scored a goal in the early minutes of the second half which probably made Atalanta quite surprised at that time. And yeah, since then Como seems to have really got their motivation back and turned the match in their favor. Although I was quite annoyed with the result of the match. But I congratulate Como on their first win.

Yep, this match is their first win in Serie A and this team needed it.
Winning the first Serie A in Derby is priceless, it is worth twice as much.
I don't know how they beat Atalanta in Atalanta, I think we should start writing a book
But I know Cesc Fabregas had a great career as a footballer and would also be a great coach for Como, the win over Atalanta is just the beginning of what they can do in Serie A 2024-2025. IMO

Varane retirement announcement: The decision has been made

Raphael Varane has decided to retire from professional football with immediate effect, bringing to an end a storied career that saw him turn out with Real Madrid and Manchester United among others.

It still comes like a shock to me because he was still 31 years old.    Signing for Como was a huge downgrade in his career that's for sure. However I would never expect this signing would led to his retirement. He was away from his good old days in performance. Signing for Manchester United didn't end up well for him.

If he was able to stay at Real Madrid then maybe things weren't going to come to this point. But we can't turn back time so we will never know...

[Obari]

Varane retirement announcement: The decision has been made

Raphael Varane has decided to retire from professional football with immediate effect, bringing to an end a storied career that saw him turn out with Real Madrid and Manchester United among others.

How does it feels for these players who are currently playing their last days in football? It's sad for some because they've failed to accomplish their dreams while some have completed their ultimate targets and consider decorated players in football. As a matter of fact, football have been diversed on different levels, it's important to adhered to the system when in top primes, make the necessary moves and achieve targets inother to prevent regrets of losing  or missing out on chances.

Nobody can cheat nature, age is definitely a hurdle in football and the vast numbers of players have failed to followed up with their epic performance. They can't meet up the advantages of their top prime but now watching them fade away is out of the picture. Raphael Varane was solid defender and play to his fullest in Real Madrid, winning matches and lifting trophies with Real Madrid. The France international have completed his chapter and time to relaxed and enjoy the show in retirement. We should not blame or point fingers at him because he chose what's best for him.

Como is not a strong team and they only promoted to Serie A this season. Losing points to an opponent like Como is a bad performance and result from Atalanta that is one of representative clubs for Serie A in Champions League. With Como, this draw against a strong team in Serie A is a motivating result for their fight to stay in Serie A after this season ending.

Atlanta continues to struggle again since the start of the season after only gaining 6 points from 5 matches played so far. This is unlike the Atlanta we saw last season, their performance have dropped since the beginning of the season and losing to a side like Como at their home ground yesterday proves how bad they are getting, i was disappointed with their performance against Como it shows they are not there yet and if they don’t improve soon enough they might not make it to the top 4 and secure a Champions League spot ahead of next season.

Como are pushing to see that they survive relegation this season and with the way they are playing they are on the right path they just need to keep up the performance and secure as many points as they can.  Como will be playing against Verona and Napoli next which will not be easy for them at all they need to do everything possible to get points in this games to survive relegation.

Como is indeed not a strong team but we also have to understand Atalanta strategy. Atalanta did perform badly and their performance is still the same as last season. However, Atalanta has strong consistency in other competitions because that is their target. Just look at how Atalanta at the beginning of last season was also not very impressive but towards the end of the season Atalanta was able to beat Leverkusen in the european league competition. And yesterday in the UCL, Atalanta was able to hold a draw against Arsenal while Arsenal is one of the strongest teams in the EPL
Well, from here we have to understand that sometimes every team has a strategy that we don't know because every team must have a goal. Like the defeat is not too important because maintaining the physical condition of the players is the most important thing to be able to perform optimally in the UCL.

[Polkeins]

I took win for Atalanta and also Asian Total Over 2.5 and Atalanta victory could not be realized and they lost points in this match, for their previous meetings showed Atalanta always won by landslide but today everything changed and Como recorded their first victory against Atalanta.

It was a great match, I didn't have the courage to bet a lot unfortunately, but still I bet on a win for Como with odds 6.4 and honestly I didn't expect a win either, but because of the postponement of the match I thought I could try to bet on Como because Atalanta's mood was obviously thwarted by the postponement of the game.
Como played only 6 matches and before that really seemed to be an outsider, but the team is playing well and even scoring, so the odds of 6.4 seemed great to me in this case, besides Atalanta sold their best players, which now greatly affects the game.
Although Gasperini knows how to squeeze all the juice out of his players, but everyone has a limit and if you don't buy star and good players, sooner or later the result will be affected.

[giammangiato]

I would like to try this bet

• Atalanta BC - Como i will bet on Atalanta BC
• AC Milan - Lecce i will bet on AC Milan
• Udinese - Inter Milan i will bet on Inter Milan
• AS Roma - Venezia i will bet on AS Roma
• Napoli - Monza i will bet on Napoli

Como is last and Atalanta is very strong, ditto Milan and ditto Inter
Roma also seem very aggressive
Napoli wants to shine this season, so I think they will win

Como is not a strong team in Serie A / Italian League, but the team's performance at the start of the match was very impressive by setting a pretty good strategy even though Atlanta already has the top ranking in Serie A, this could change by performing very badly at the start of this season, it's true that the team's strategy is not You can predict that even though the newly promoted promotional team has its own mission to defend the title in several big leagues such as Super Europe and UCL.
At the start of the season, many players are still maximizing their physical abilities for the next match. Hopefully Atlanta can win the next match.
