Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[babo]

Having one point from Napoli won't help Atalanta improving their rank in Serie A but if it happens, it will be very harmful for Napoli as they can fall deeper in Serie A rank table under Inter Milan, AS Roma, AC Milan, Bologna and Juventus. 3 points are like a mandatory task for Napoli in this match if they want to maintain a good position in Scudetto race with other clubs.

I'll explain to you why i think Napoli will win.
Atalanta changed coach a year ago, from Gasperini to Juric.
Recently, Juric was fired due to scandalous results and Palladino was appointed in his place.
We have a new coach, a young one, who has only recently joined a disastrous team.

Napoli wins

Indeed, in terms of performance, Napoli is far superior to Atalanta, but it must be remembered that Napoli must also be careful and vigilant anything can happen in football. Sometimes a team that looks weak can play well in the upcoming match. No one can guarantee an easy victory everything requires extra hard work in the upcoming match. A new coach appointed by the team, whether they like it or not, must quickly adapt, both in player selection and strategy. And the coach can also read the opponent's previous game, from here the Atalanta coach can implement their best strategy.

Unfortunately, I also think Napoli will win and I say this with sadness
one because my favorite team is Atalanta and I'm sad to say it
two because that long-haired, unpleasant, crybaby Antonio Conte wins effortlessly, and I can't stand that either..

Juventus will also face Fiorentina in their next match, and Bologna will also face Udinese. So, with this in mind, it's safe to say that Juventus and Bologna are both likely to secure all three points in their upcoming matches. Therefore, Napoli absolutely must win their upcoming match. Otherwise, they'll have a much harder time competing for the Scudetto this season. So, with this in mind, we'll just have to wait and see.

Atalanta must prove something on the pitch, they are certainly, a good team and it is not possible that they finish so low in the standings just because they changed coach, the team remains the same and there is no discussion then there could be a tactical change but it seems absurd to me

Indeed Napoli is far ahead of Atalanta in terms of performance because we see some of the players from this team who are now playing in the World Cup qualifiers, and their performance there is also great quality. One of the pieces of information that this team can cite as an example of performance is that players from this Napoli club scored goals in yesterday's match between Scotland and Denmark. Actually, Scotland's McTominay is a trained midfielder for Italian giants Napoli, while Denmark's Rasmus Hojlund is also a trained player for Napoli Football Club, these two players managed to score goals in the FIFA WC qualifying match yesterday, so it is assumed that when they return to the Serie A giant after the international break, i.e. after completing the qualifier rounds, they will play against Atlanta with extra confidence.

Napoli certainly appear more powerful on the paper and players who come back with international experience with good performance will give them confidence. Club football is however, another world and national match form does not necessarily translate directly over to Serie A.

The changes in coach at Atalanta can be good or bad. Having a new coach sometimes inspires the team and adds unexpected strategies, even when the team has been undergoing negative results. This should not be left lightly by Napoli, since teams who have nothing to lose tend to be even more determined to play.

Napoli can be a favourite, however, the game will not be that easy as it seems. Surprises are always a part of football, and Atalanta might provide trouble provided that they adjust to the new manager as soon as possible

Still, Napoli should be considered a strong team and they seem to be the favorite team to win. There are two reasons for that, one is that Atalanta is going through a very bad form and is positioned a little lower in the points table. On the other hand, Napoli will fight at their home ground and without the key players, Napoli is still stronger than Atalanta. So Atalanta will not be a big obstacle for Napoli in their goal of winning the title.

Napoli are still considered a strong team in the Serie A since they are able to make and claim 4th place in the table. The teams that are in front of Napoli are just 2 points different from them, and if Napoli can win their match next tomorrow, they will definitely share points with those teams. Inter and Roma, on the other hand, are also in good form this season in the Serie A. That’s why I also choose them as favorites to win the league, and if we observe the Roma performances, they seriously compete with Inter in order to take over the top spot from Inter.

Napoli have lost the top spot in the table after a long  time. Napoli are desperate to regain the top spot. Napoli are only 2 points behind Inter Milan. So if Napoli can win, they can grab the top spot in the table. And if  they fail to continue their winning streak , napoli will gradually move away from the title race.
Napoli's opponents in the next 3 matches are very tough. After the international break , Napoli will play against Atalanta. After that, Napoli will face Roma and Juventus respectively. So it is very difficult for napoli to regain the top spot in the table by winning in three matches.

I am worried about Napoli. We have seen a stable performance from the beginning of the season. But they have lost the top spot in the table due to losing points in the last two matches. They lost against Bologna and shared points with Frankfurt.

Napoli's opponents in the next few matches are stronger. Atalanta, Juventus and Roma are renowned teams in Serie A. And Napoli has a big chance of losing points in each match. Also, Napoli will play against Qarabak and Benfica in two matches of the Champions League. Each match is very important for Napoli. It will be very difficult for Napoli to perform well against these strong teams consistently. Also, two important players like De Bruyne and Lukaku are out of the squad due to injuries.

[m4r1o]

It's true that Atalanta haven't lost very many matches this season, with more draws. So, I agree that Napoli should be wary of this. Atalanta's numerous draws indicate their defensive performance is quite good. But I personally remain confident that Napoli will fight hard to win this match. As we know, a draw won't save Napoli. So, they absolutely must get all three points in this match. As we know, teams like Juventus and Bologna are likely to get all three points in their upcoming matches.

Juventus will also face Fiorentina in their next match, and Bologna will also face Udinese. So, with this in mind, it's safe to say that Juventus and Bologna are both likely to secure all three points in their upcoming matches. Therefore, Napoli absolutely must win their upcoming match. Otherwise, they'll have a much harder time competing for the Scudetto this season. So, with this in mind, we'll just have to wait and see.

I absolutely think Napoli has a good chance of winning, but I say precisely because Atalanta shows they have a very respectable defense, Napoli is not certain of victory anyway, they need to commit seriously and not underestimate the situation, the penalty is the risk of missing the opportunity and if I even leave space Atalanta could even breach Napoli's defense.

[verdinio]

Atalanta didn?t make a very good research before appointing Juric, if not they will know that he isn?t the right man for the Atalanta job, I watched Juric and his team when he was the coach of Southampton it was a very poor performance from that team, and they eventually got relegated and he got sacked by the board, well I must say that Atalanta got very lucky right now that they have to sack him as soon as possible before it?s too late, I really do not understand why Atalanta had to let a coach like Gasperini leave, well I guessing he requested to leave the club, I think they should start looking for a good manager right now before it?s too late.

Every time Juricc is there there is always trouble but why is this coach so disorganized and always causes problems every time he coaches a team, I can't understand it anyway Atalanta can't be so bad if last year they also won a trophy, how is this possible?

I predict this season is the season for As Roma with all possibilities can happen if As Roma is able to be consistent with the current players, having the same points as Inter Milan makes As Roma continue to shadow Inter Milan, of course As Roma hopes for the match between Napoli and Ac Milan because the competition at the top of the top 4 is only a few points apart where As Roma's position can still be pursued but the defeat suffered by Napoli last week made As Roma a little relieved because they were able to rise to second place in the Serie A standings.

I think we should not forget that Napoli is currently dealing with injury issues. Napoli's most important midfielders are injured, which will affect them when they play against top teams like Atlanta. I still see Atlanta as one of the big clubs in Serie because they know how to play against big clubs in the league, they played against AC Milan and showed that they are still a top team in the league by drawing the game. Napoli also does not have a good striker right now.

We should not underestimate Atlanta because they are having a bad season and have just get a new coach, the new coach may surprise us by defeating Napoli, we don't know maybe the new coach could be one of the best thing that will happens to Atlanta this season by changing the team performance and make them to bounce back and start winning games, for me, the match will not be easy, and Napoli will have a difficult game before winning the match.

AS Roma has made significant progress under Gasperini's leadership and is now firmly in contention for the top spot in the league. It's certainly not easy for Gasperini to manage a team that lacks a full complement, and Roma's players are also highly susceptible to injuries, which can disrupt plans. I wouldn't dare conclude that Roma will be firmly in the top four unless the management can bring in several players in the mid-season transfer window.

Atalanta has indeed been experiencing many problems this season after the change of coach, but the team has actually slumped further, I'm confident that this match won't be difficult for Napoli to win, This could even be a chance for Napoli to achieve a big win and boost their mentality and confidence.

Regarding Antonio Conte, I don't think there's anything to comment on or criticize, Napoli's current decline in performance is still within reason, as they've lost many key players to injury, I wouldn't be too quick to underestimate Antonio Conte, as he led Napoli to a title in his first season alone, It's not impossible for Antonio Conte to repeat that success this season.

This game really is interesting tactically and Atalanta can truly be a problematic one. Palladino's had nine days with this squad, but he's already freed up Lookman from Jurić's rigid system. That Nigerian winger will flourish when he is allowed to drift and cause havoc in the half-spaces. Add to that Napoli defense which is weak without Anguissa and all of a sudden you are not on a walk over

The larger problem to me is the identity crisis that Napoli has. They have taken in a 34 year old De Bruyne and Hjhojlund on loan. That is panic buying to make Conte happy. And it shows. Their goal scoring has been the lowest in the top four at 16 goals. For defending champions, that's worrying

Can Conte repeat last season? Maybe. But this feels different. The team is stitched together, the mood has been high following his tantrums, and De Laurentiis is raging about injuries. They are likely to win at home, but a huge win to get the confidence up? I think it'll be scrappy, nervy, and way closer than you think

Napoli have lost the top spot in the table after a long  time. Napoli are desperate to regain the top spot. Napoli are only 2 points behind Inter Milan. So if Napoli can win, they can grab the top spot in the table. And if  they fail to continue their winning streak , napoli will gradually move away from the title race.
Napoli's opponents in the next 3 matches are very tough. After the international break , Napoli will play against Atalanta. After that, Napoli will face Roma and Juventus respectively. So it is very difficult for napoli to regain the top spot in the table by winning in three matches.

They have failed to win their last three matches and the most painful was a 2-0 defeat to Bologna which knocked them off the top of the table. Conte must be wary of their current form especially as Napoli face tough matches in the next three matches, which will drain their players' energy. Furthermore with several Napoli players suffering from injuries this will be a challenge for Conte to rekindle their squad's enthusiasm and achieve victory in the next three matches.

Serie A is still a long way off but this season will be very competitive because none of the teams have a stable record which means the points gap between each team is limited, allowing for changes in the standings every week. However if we look at the match schedules of all the teams competing for the Serie A trophy, only AC Milan has the advantage of a less congested schedule due to their absence from European competition.

It's hard to have a a stable run of play in the Serie A, when you think a team is becoming unstoppable that's when a team in the bottom half of the league comes to destroy them, the Serie A league is always unstable untill the last day that why you can have more than 3 teams that may have legit opportunities to be the leagues champion even until the last days of the season.
Even with AC Milan's less congested fixtures due to their absence in European football I don't see them as favorite to win the league.

Because all the teams suck!
That's the only reason. if we cast away Inter you see how they perform when competing with other teams
CL
Inter 3rd, Atalanta 16th, Napoli 24th,Juventus 26th
Europa League: Roma 18th, Bologna 24th,
Conference League: Fiorentina (lol) 8th, with teams that to be honest, as a European, I can't place more than 20% on the map..

Inter is losing the top spot because they end up competing for 3-4 rounds more in the cups, while the other teams are already eliminated and just play one match a week with just as low-quality adversaries as themselves

The Seria A is becoming unstable in the past two to Three seasons because, one the traditional big teams are becoming weaker due to wrong investments in the teams or not even, been able to make any substantial investments at all in the first place. Looking at teams like Juventus and inter Milan you can see that there problem has been not investing in young players which should have naturally replaced the older once but they still stick to the old player which has impacted on them negatively. Two smaller teams have begun to rise and challenge for the title in the past two seasons teams like bologna, Como etc has becoming a threat to the big teams the more, this is because they have made substantial investments in their recruitment process.

Of course, Napoli is still considered a strong team and remains among the contenders for the title this season, alongside AC Milan, Inter Milan, and AS Roma. However, next week, I believe AS Roma will secure full points and take the top spot. Meanwhile, Inter Milan and AC Milan may end up sharing points due to a draw. Napoli could potentially rise to second place after defeating Atalanta. Or they might also end up with a draw, as Atalanta is a very tough opponent when it comes to draws. Roma is the only team in the top four that seems to have an easier opponent in the 12th week.

[Renampun]

I'll explain to you why i think Napoli will win.
Atalanta changed coach a year ago, from Gasperini to Juric.
Recently, Juric was fired due to scandalous results and Palladino was appointed in his place.
We have a new coach, a young one, who has only recently joined a disastrous team.

Napoli wins

Napoli will win this match because in recent matches Atalanta have not shown a consistent performance, and tend to concede goals easily, while Napoli, even though their current performance is a bit unstable, after KDB suffered an injury, they are still quite a strong opponent for Atalanta, especially this time Napoli will play at their own home, that will give Napoli an advantage so they can win at their own home.

[FanEagle]

Every time Juricc is there there is always trouble but why is this coach so disorganized and always causes problems every time he coaches a team, I can't understand it anyway Atalanta can't be so bad if last year they also won a trophy, how is this possible?

Obviously he wasn't the right man for the job, no idea why they wanted to get him at the first place. When you look back on his history, there aren't a single team that did well with him so far, and more importantly he was managing Roma very recently and Roma did horrible and fired him.

So if you see a manager that gets fired for being bad from one of your opponents, then why would you think that hiring that person would be a good idea? Some managers are like that, I never understand how, but they do very bad and get fired and then they find just another job. That never made any sense to me and yet they still find jobs, wait and see, Juric will find another job for himself and I will once again not understand how he does that.
