Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Promocodeudo]

I think that Roma is facing the same challenge that United is facing. They have not being stable since last season after Mourinho left the club. It saddens me to see how the strong becomes weak due to lack of good manager to manage the club. No one knows which coach would be able to liberate Roma from their present condition. A lot of goals was scored last week in both UCL and domestic leagues, but that of Fiorentina vs Roma was different, because it is not that Fiorentina is very strong to score Roma all those goals.

Such a humilatingy defeat against Roma, sometimes I just don't know whats wrong with most of this teams, how would such a team like Roma allow Florentina to beat them 5:1, I think this calls for a serious questioning for the manager because it seems he is not doing his job very well, though there ball possess was at a time in that match better than their opponent but that shouldn't be the case, what every club need is winning with a good outplay nothing else, florentina had their chances and was able to utilize them against their weak opponent which is Roma, it is very disheartening to see Roma sink like a ship in that match, a good team will not want to allow their opponent to defeat them in such aggressive manner though that's by the way.

I feel the same buddy, how great Roma has fallen, I think the club Management should by now searching for a replacement if not, more of this kind of result may occur if they fail to make a fast move to that effect, for Florentina to best Roma wuth such number of goals in that match, that's to say more is to come in the future from other teams to Roma if nothing is been done, such performance has shown how weak Roma is and I suggest they act fast to prevent future occurence.

Fiorentina's current strength lies in their defense and with De Gea, Fiorentina's defense is very difficult to penetrate. We can see several saves by De Gea in several matches and Fiorentina's game is very organized and focused, that's why they can create many goals in the match against AS Roma.

David De Gea is a goalkeeper that boosts his defensive confidence, he is always clinical and knows how to communicate with his back lines for a better defensive game and he also help to build play from behind.
His time in Manchester United is memorable because he have some fantastic saves because he is very reliable and the team trust him, but the problem he has with the coach Ten Hag was the reason he left the team and now Fiorentina is benefiting from him as their goalkeeper.

AS Roma's defense is indeed very bad with the change of coach from De Rossi to Ivan Jurić, it is very different from AS Roma's way of playing, even worse than when it was still handled by Jose Mourinho, but it all goes back to the management's decision to want a change in AS Roma's game tactics.

AS Roma needed this performance to learn from their mistakes; they think that sacking coaches is as easy as they may think, and getting a better performance need consistency which will only be gotten if coaches were given time to prove themselves.
De Rossi was sacked without been given sufficient time to show his talent, and sacking him had now caused the team some bad performance.
Roma will not make it to any European competition this season if they didn’t improve their performance or sign more players in the January transfer window.

Roma latest loss was extremely disappointing made worse by red card. After achieving some good results like their 1-0 European League win over Dynamo Kyiv and solid performance against Inter Milan losing to Fiorentina was surprising. Fiorentina clear win showed Roma weaknesses which is unusual to see. Normally Roma is strong enough to avoid big losses but in this match they struggled. I think Roma will recover. Their past performances show they have what it takes.

Roma's defeat can be said to be quite surprising, because losing with a score of 5-1 in my opinion is a fairly crushing defeat experienced by Roma this season. So this indicates that Roma's performance this season is still unstable. This is only natural, because this season Roma has changed coaches who were initially trained by De Rossi and have now been replaced by Ivan Juric. So it is certain that with the change of coach, Roma's players must not have been able to adapt optimally. So currently Ivan Juric as Roma's new coach must be trying the strategy that best suits Roma's style of play, so that Roma's performance tends to be inconsistent. The proof is that when playing against Inter, Roma was able to defend quite well even though in the end they lost by a narrow score of 1-0. But now facing a team like Fiorentina, Roma is having difficulty. This can be concluded that Ivan Juric is trying another strategy, and the results are quite bad. In addition, I personally have a little assessment of Roma's current weaknesses, and these weaknesses lie in their attack line and also their defense line. Because in the middle line Roma always dominates the game very well, but when the ball goes forward the strikers owned by Roma cannot take advantage of the opportunity well and when the ball goes back the Roma defenders also cannot anticipate it well. Therefore Ivan Juric must fix this as soon as possible. Because if it is not fixed quickly, Roma will definitely continue to experience difficulties in every match, and maybe its position in the Serie A standings could continue to decline.

Fiorentina are growing in quality and competitiveness recent seasons and this season is their continuation of club growth. They luckily got De Gea, a great goalkeeper as a free player in the summer. In a match with Roma, De Gea again shows his excellent response to make an amazing save against a beautiful free kick from Dybala.

AS Roma's defense is indeed very bad with the change of coach from De Rossi to Ivan Jurić, it is very different from AS Roma's way of playing, even worse than when it was still handled by Jose Mourinho, but it all goes back to the management's decision to want a change in AS Roma's game tactics.

Roma defense was not too good with Mourinho who is an expert in defense art, so it means their defenders aren't too good. Anyway their defense was better with Mourinho than with De Rossi and Juric, it means Mourinho is a better coach at least in defense.

Juric is their current coach but honestly I don't know what is his tactic philosophy for Roma. Mourinho is defensive and counter attack, De Rossi is more proactive attacks but Juric's philosophy, I really don't know.

You are right. Fiorentina defense is stronger after De Gea joined the club. They become more often won the the match, they are rarely conceded goals. With the capability of De Gea, all the players are motivated to perform well. They can focus on attacking, they trust De Gea as the great goalkeeper. The increase of Fiorentina players' confidence, triggers a better performance of Fiorentina.

AS Roma's defense is indeed very bad with the change of coach from De Rossi to Ivan Jurić, it is very different from AS Roma's way of playing, even worse than when it was still handled by Jose Mourinho, but it all goes back to the management's decision to want a change in AS Roma's game tactics.

Since De Rossi left the club, AS Roma became too weak team. It looks like a mediocre team only now. It is in 11th place, it seems hard to finish the season in the top 8 of Serie A. I think AS Roma needs to change the current coach. He has no capability to manage AS Roma players.

Again and again I am unlucky in my bets and it really hurts to lose a bet caused by only 1 match that destroys my multibet, I predicted Inter would win at home with a narrow score but who would have thought they would draw and they scored a lot of goals, 4 goals each, I was hesitant to bet on the Asian total because the statistics between the two teams in the last 5 meetings were not dominant in attacking and the scores of both teams were always below 2 goals and for the first time they scored that many goals, I think there were a lot of surprises this weekend that made me always fail to win the bet.

Inter Milan's 4:4 draw against Juventus at the San Siro yesterday I don't think was a result many people saw coming. After Inter Milan went 4:2 up in the game, I thought they were going to win at the end but little did I know that Juventus were going to come back and get a point. Just like you rightly said, there were a lot of surprising results in the Italian Serie A this past weekend but the result of the Derby d'Italia was the most surprising of them all if you ask me

[Hanadawa]

At first I thought AS Roma was able to compete in the top 4 because they brought Artem Dovbyk with the La Liga Top Score also brought Matias Soule from Juventus by spending 56 million for these 2 players but so far we have not seen a significant contribution to the team or we can call it the wrong signing. Indeed AS Roma still has plenty of time to catch up but I think we can't expect more, maybe AS Roma will be finished in 10th position.

I also wonder why Artem Dovbyk accepted Roma's offer. I mean we know Roma's performance last season was not so good and they had problems with their coach. Did Artem Dovbyk choose to join Roma because he could be better? But honestly we can't say Dovbyk is a failed signing. Dovbyk's performance is also not good because he only scored 3 goals in Serie A but Roma's problem is their tactics and defense. In this match I saw Fiorentina had 10 shots on target and their direct passes could not be anticipated by Roma's defense. I think this defeat makes us have to remove Roma from the title candidates this season.

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

Jurić didn't change anything in the team, Roma remained the same as it was with De Rossi, and today I read that he is also under threat of dismissal after the defeat to Fiorentina, if this happens, then this will be a very short stay of his as head coach. Yes, the red card almost did not affect anything, since by this time Roma was already losing with no chance to win back, and the card was more a reaction to Roma's helplessness in this match. And Fiorentina, by the way, after this victory rose to fourth place and is only one point behind Juventus and two behind Inter.

Jurić is much worse than De Rossi because so far the matches that have taken place have only been able to get two wins in Serie-A. Rumors of his dismissal are increasingly being rumored and I don't know if it comes from the fans or not, but if you look at the quality of his handling of Roma, it is very bad at all. The red card that Mario Hermoso received when facing Fiorentina did not have a big impact because they had previously conceded three goals.

This is an important win for Fiorentina so they can focus on catching up on Juventus. Next, Fiorentina will face Genoa so the potential for victory will be much greater and they may be able to take third place if Juventus draws again.

Because if it is not fixed quickly, Roma will definitely continue to experience difficulties in every match, and maybe its position in the Serie A standings could continue to decline.

A 5-1 defeat is not something that was expected, especially judging by how much they have improved since the change of coach. An own goal from the spot in the 55th minute and the second one from Fiorentina in the 86th minute just added an impossible task to the mission impossible for the Giallorossi. What's interesting is how they ended up defending quite well after playing with 10 men from the 65th minute due to a red card. The absence of additional goals from Fiorentina in the final phase shows that, even under pressure, toughness against the opponent's attack is there when needed.

There are still problems of weaknesses in attack and defense, but they are fixes that must be made immediately because without improvements in this sector, wins will continue to be elusive for Roma. However, if he can find that right formula to strengthen these two lines, then the Italians also have great potential to improve their performance and look more stable for the rest of the season.

Juventus team performed incredibly in this match, in the end they lost. And coming to the end of the game, the attacking department, including the defenders of the Juventus team, worked hard, and finally succeeded. Although Inter Milan went two goals ahead in this match both goals were from penalties, so I think Juventus team performed the most offensively in this match.
The real performance I noticed was from the players of the Juventus team, because they fought better in the end and managed to equalize the match and they shared one point in the points table.

[execijutiere]

Fiorentina are doing incredibly well. Fiorentina scored 6 goals against Lecce last week and this week they won 5-1 at home against Roma. We have seen them recover in the last weeks. Even though Roma had more possession, it was a game where whoever scored the goal won. They are also doing well in the conference league, scoring a lot of goals.

Maybe this will be the worst season for AS Roma since the last 5 seasons because as we know, usually AS Roma is always finished in the 5-7 position but for this season it seems they are still far from expectations although in the transfer window, AS Roma tried to improve performance by bringing in several new players but unfortunately the effort was not successful at least until this 9th week. We don't know what the problem is and some people say AS Roma is handled by the inappropriate coach.

At first I thought AS Roma was able to compete in the top 4 because they brought Artem Dovbyk with the La Liga Top Score also brought Matias Soule from Juventus by spending 56 million for these 2 players but so far we have not seen a significant contribution to the team or we can call it the wrong signing. Indeed AS Roma still has plenty of time to catch up but I think we can't expect more, maybe AS Roma will be finished in 10th position.

Ivan Juric seems to be going to suffer the same fate as De Rossi, the Croatian manager seems unable to improve AS Roma performance. The management should not have been hasty in firing De Rossi, they should have been a little patient to see the team development. If they continue to lose points, it is possible that AS Roma will not finish in the European Zone this season. The embarrassing defeat to Fiorentina has put Ivan Juric under great pressure, he must immediately find a solution to the porous defense line.
The budget they spend is actually relatively lower to realize the ambition of competing in the top four of the standings, Napoli, Inter Milan, Juventus, and AC Milan spend a larger budget to continue to maintain their existence every season. Last season AS Roma was lucky to have Lukaku in the team, Artem Dovbyk seems to only be able to perform impressively if managed by Michel.

[bering]

The presence or absence of a red card for Roma players in this match did not affect anything because from the start they did play badly even before the red card that Hermoso received in this match they had lost by a score of 4 goals so this red card did not have any impact, in fact I think with their players on the red card Roma actually focused more on the defense they did.

The situation that occurred showed that before Hermoso's red card, Roma's focus was still trying to give an all out performance and try to reduce the gap even though they were troubled by it. But when they lost 1 player they were more focused in defense and that at least did not make them concede more goals.

This match was very bad for Roma and whether we realize it or not the loss of De Rosi made Roma's situation much worse than before.

Jurić didn't change anything in the team, Roma remained the same as it was with De Rossi, and today I read that he is also under threat of dismissal after the defeat to Fiorentina, if this happens, then this will be a very short stay of his as head coach.

And Fiorentina, by the way, after this victory rose to fourth place and is only one point behind Juventus and two behind Inter.

The arrival of Ivan Juric didn't bringing positive impact to Roma performance because since he was arrived on September Roma still hard struggling to gets the winning results for every matches even i have to says Ivan Juric has failed to earn trust from Roma players because recently there was a rumour that after the match against Fiorentina Ivan Juric had a conflict with Roma defender Gianluca Mancini at the locker room

The fans were very angry with the loses from Fiorentina and they were demanding Roma should be sack Ivan Juric immediatelly even some of them asking to Roma president to bring De Rossi back to this team and these situations makes local media has starting to speculate that Ivan Juric will be sacked soon and he would be replaced by other managers

[KTChampions]

I was almost 100% sure that the game would end with Inter winning 1:0, since Inter looks stronger but Juventus has a phenomenal defense and before this game they had only conceded one goal. But after the game it is already quite difficult to say who lost 2 points (Juventus remains undefeated), the only thing that is clear is that Napoli benefited from this result and now lead with a comfortable advantage of 4 points.

No one expected the match to produce 8 goals, it seems like many bettors suffered losses in the match, due to being influenced by their previous statistics. Of course, the draw was as expected by Napoli, they gained an indirect advantage. The 4-point difference is actually not safe enough for Napoli, considering the journey is still quite long, Inter Milan and Juventus are real threats to Conte squad in the future. The absence of Francesco Acerbi and Carlos Augusto made Inter Milan defense porous, they failed to maintain their lead towards the end of the match.

At this stage of the season, 4 points is not a decisive advantage, but nevertheless very important, since even having lost one game, Napoli will still remain the sole leader. Besides, if you look at the results of Inter (win rate slightly over 50%) and Juventus (win rate less than 50%), it seems that the gap will only grow. I haven't checked the bookmakers' odds for the title yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if Napoli is already the favorite.

Even the rumors are growing when Roma want to reappoint De Rosi after this defeat It's a joke when they try to gain momentum with a new coach but instead problems occur for the internal even when a big defeat occurs in this match there is reportedly a direct internal problem because management does not accept Roma losing with a score that is quite striking.

Now the choice is actually quite risky because holding Juric to give more opportunities or looking for a new coach (even though Juric has just coached) this will have risks in considering decisions. But when looking at Juric who after the Roma match had a dispute with the players of course this is not a good thing and the possibility of finding a new coach and maybe even returning De Rosi's position could happen.

[Out of mind]

Fiorentina have been doing really well this season, we've seen them get incredible in every match. The team has managed to occupy a good position in the points table and as they progress they may be able to compete with the top teams. Firontina will compete with Inter and Juventus, and since the next match is against Genoa, I think Fiorentina will not lose points in this match. Fiorentina will try to play more strongly in the next matches because of the great victory against Roma. Moreover, Fiorentina have won four matches and lost only one match out of nine matches played so far, but their position in the points table is very good.

[hahay]

Fiorentina are doing incredibly well. Fiorentina scored 6 goals against Lecce last week and this week they won 5-1 at home against Roma. We have seen them recover in the last weeks. Even though Roma had more possession, it was a game where whoever scored the goal won. They are also doing well in the conference league, scoring a lot of goals.

Fiorentina are in a very good trend at this moment because after all, Fiorentina also only got one defeat against Atalanta. Also, this big score victory also made Fiorentina have more goals compared to Atalanta, even though Atalanta also won big 6-1 against Verona and made Atalanta in fourth position. But, after this Fiorentina match and also winning the big score made Fiorentina managed to overtake Atalanta in fourth position. With results like this, the competition in the top four will certainly be very interesting, and with this great pressure I hope Juventus can really improve their quality so as not to be overtaken by Fiorentina or Atalanta.

When it comes to a team like Fiorentina they have a way of doing well at the beginning of the season and when they needed that consistency you see them dropping form drastically and their position on the log also won't be the same position they were when they were doing well. The goals and performance is really good but I see them not finishing in the top 4. And Roma has been poor since last season, I think since Mourinho left the team they haven't found their feet and if it continues like this they might finish in a position they least expected. The score line is not suppose to be up to that amount of goals but they still ain't match for Fiorentina.

[beerlover]

I think that Roma is facing the same challenge that United is facing. They have not being stable since last season after Mourinho left the club. It saddens me to see how the strong becomes weak due to lack of good manager to manage the club. No one knows which coach would be able to liberate Roma from their present condition. A lot of goals was scored last week in both UCL and domestic leagues, but that of Fiorentina vs Roma was different, because it is not that Fiorentina is very strong to score Roma all those goals.

The problem they are facing is basically not being a "team", they have some players that isn't all that bad, they shouldn't be getting this badly dominated against Fiorentina, they are not that terrible and yet when we look at this situation, we can safely say that the yare not really looking like a team at all, everyone plays for themselves that's it.

I think we need to make sure we know what they are capable of doing when a proper coach finally arrives. Look at the loss, it's 5-1, I mean if they simply just lost, like for example 1-0 or 2-1 whatever, then I would say that isn't too bad, it's understandable, they are having a bad season and losing would be normal. But they lost 5-1, that is not acceptable at any level for them.

Even though Roma had more possession, it was a game where whoever scored the goal won. They are also doing well in the conference league, scoring a lot of goals.

A little surprised by what happened to AS Roma in this match, I initially predicted AS Roma would lose this match with a narrow score but seeing them slaughtered by Fiorentina means there is something wrong with AS Roma this season. I see AS Roma's mistake because they fired Mourinho, then replaced De Rossi and not long after they fired him too. This is a mistake because AS Roma did not enjoy the process, they want to be a strong team instantly. Roma must be patient with the coach otherwise the club will be relegated, so if they want the best for Roma, they need time for the new coach to implement his ideas, don't change coaches too often because that will not make the team better, on the contrary.

In addition, Fiorentina's victory is none other than because they have changed for the better, especially after the arrival of De Gea who made their goal a little safer because in several matches De Gea appeared impressive. So with that Fiorentina is more focused on building attacks, we can see this in their 3 matches they appeared epic and were able to score 15 goals in 3 league matches and in the conference league.
