Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Smack That Ace]

It was a great victory of 5-1 by Fiorentina, yet the distinctive role in the game was played by the early red card of Okoye. When Udinese were brought down to ten men, Fiorentina dominated the game and struck at will though Kean pulled off two goals. The game being scored highly was not characteristic of Serie A almost as though it was a Dutch game. The true question however is consistency. The match against Parma which is a away game will be a key test to see whether Fiorentina can put a continuation to this performance or it was a one-time occasion.

This was Fiorentina's first win of the season. We have never seen such a strange performance from Fiorentina before. But their comeback was incredible. I am sure that most of the bettors had their money on Fiorentina losing this match  too. But fiorentina managed to win by  a huge margin of 5 -1 .

After this win, Fiorentina is still at the last position in the table. Fiorentina is  5 points behind Parma who are in the 17th position in the table. However, if they can continue their excellent performance, then fiorentina has a chance to get out of the relegation zone.

Cagliari drew 2-2 at home against Pisa. Pisa, who had been losing consistently in recent weeks, managed to put a stop to that run at least in this away game. Despite taking the lead with a penalty goal in the final minutes of the first half, they conceded two goals in the second half and fell behind 2-1. Pisa managed to secure a draw in this away game with Moreo's goal in the final minutes, raising their points total to 11.

I am not surprised by the result of the match. Both cagliari and pisa are weak teams. Pisa is in the relegation zone and cagliari is in the  15th place of the points table. The performance of this team is also very irregular. But the performance of both teams was very good in this match. Both teams were able to make a lot of  attacks. But Pisa was a little lucky. They   scored their second goal in the 89 th minute of the match. Pisa was able to equalize the match by scoring a goal in the last minute of the match. Pisa is trying its best to get out of the relegation  zone. But if the performance is irregular , it will not be possible for them to get out of the relegation zone.

If Fiorentina continues to play like this, I'd definitely place them in the safety zone of the league and why not, they could even do something better. Right now these guys are trying hard, and I think the team is there to do well, if they continue like this they can do big step ahead

Even if Fiorentina continues like this, the best they can get at this point will be escaping relegation, but they are soo badly at the danger zone that it will take them a good number of this performance and the other teams falling back for them to escape been relegated this season, as a matter of fact, they have the lowest points on the table which keeps them at a far disadvantage.

This year, i think if they win, they'll celebrate even more because this year they'll have defeated not one, but three strong teams fighting for the title. i think this will be even more satisfying than last year, if they win, of course.
I think they can do

I see this season as really tough for Napoli.
There are too many open fronts, even if Antonio Conte doesn't decide to seriously commit, the players still have to play, and even if he rotates, some will always play and get tired.
Furthermore, their minds are busy and they cannot concentrate.

[giorgione]

Finally Fiorentina have managed to get their first win. It took them 16 games though.    A 5-1 win against Udinese... If it weren't for that red card in the first minutes already I wonder what kind of a game we were going to watch.

Because Udinese started the game better until then. Anyways, this win doesn't carry Fiorentina to any position above maybe but it is a start at least. The players needed this kind of a boost. But I'm still worried about their relegation probability.

I think that Fiorentina absolutely must continue like this, this thing is very important for their morale, and if they think they are in good shape they must continue, i was almost convinced that they would be able to find the way to save themselves this year, i was almost sure

Napoli hasn't been able to consistently play consistently and produce satisfactory results. So far, they've relied on Bruyne and Hojlund for their midfield and attack. Unfortunately, De Bruyne is injured and will likely be out for a long time, possibly until March.

Hojlund has performed quite well so far. However, relying on him alone isn't enough to keep Napoli winning consistently, especially against opponents who may be much stronger. They've also relied on Lucca at times, but the results haven't been as optimal.

And tomorrow, Napoli will face Bologna in the Supercoppa Italiana final. Napoli should be cautious, as Bologna previously defeated Inter Milan.

Maybe they will keep it up for a few more games. This was their first win of the season, which they won by an incredibly large margin. Udinese probably never expected such a match, they will want to forget this match as much as possible and fight to get back to form. Fiorentina's poor performance this season was very unexpected, looking at the statistics of the last seasons I thought they might do something better this season, but the reality is the opposite, it is also much more than I expected. Now their existence in Serie A for the upcoming season is in question.

[Catenaccio]

Napoli hasn't been able to consistently play consistently and produce satisfactory results. So far, they've relied on Bruyne and Hojlund for their midfield and attack. Unfortunately, De Bruyne is injured and will likely be out for a long time, possibly until March.

You forgot about McTominay who has been very important with Napoli since the last season as one of their most important players for Scudetto and in this season, the Scottish player continues to show his good performances for Napoli. He is important as a box to box midfielder with roles from attacks to defense for Napoli.

Hojlund has performed quite well so far. However, relying on him alone isn't enough to keep Napoli winning consistently, especially against opponents who may be much stronger. They've also relied on Lucca at times, but the results haven't been as optimal.

Coming to Napoli as an alternative for Lukaku who got a severe injury in the summer, Hojlund quickly adapted to Napoli and Serie A, perhaps with his experience there before his transfer to Manchester United. Now he is important in Napoli attacking system, not only with goal scoring task but also has good connections with his teammates and can support them well.

And tomorrow, Napoli will face Bologna in the Supercoppa Italiana final. Napoli should be cautious, as Bologna previously defeated Inter Milan.

Bologna are not weak and Napoli still have Serie A and Champions League for fighting but with a single match, Napoli likely try to chase a super cup but I think it's better if they focus on Serie A and UEFA Champions League.

I didn't see it coming, Fiorentina happens to be one of the teams I consciously avoid whenever am making my selections for gambling especially when they are up against teams that are a bit strong, but in this week's fixture I never expected them to be this proactive since they have always disappointed this season, it was indeed a great result for Fiorentina but am curious about what their next performance would look like and if they might maintain this status for a long time because they need to start winning if they must move up the table.

[dezoel]

It was indeed surprising, and nobody really expected that from Fiorentina, I think they showed why they are a team that knows all of this situations, but they do not sit in a good position in the Italian League which means a win sometimes might just be worthless.

AS Roma seems to be playing very badly in recent games and their performance level seems to also have dropped significantly, and I really can’t say that they have so many injuries but I think it’s all about them going into the winter transfer market to sigh some new players, else there title hopes will absolutely be over if they don’t continue producing a good Performance.

The change was expected as they are having the worst time in last 15 games, their defense has never been on track even their attack showing some good depth. This game could be having positive for them and their future because now things are already on lowest level. Red card gave them chance and they avail this through their aggressive approach. In upcoming days, they are having another game which can give good chance of having another win because now it's good time to bring improvement and better results if they fail then surely things can go in the worst way even they can face relegation.

This one was weird...
Ok, Udinese played in 10 from the 8th minute, that makes the result less outrageous but..
Why was Fiorentina, a team with no wins to date, sent that much of a favorite?


I'm pretty sure the bookies wouldn't have been able to see in their crystal globe what will happen in the early few minutes...or ...would they 

I think that they could certainly have avoided the goal from Fiorentina, losing can happen but you always have to do it in a very careful way and not very narrowly, I can't understand why they lost so badly against them, they certainly surprised them

Napoli's performance is inconsistent. And their  attack is weak. Although napoli's attack has performed well in a few matches, we have not seen a consistent performance from them. Due to their inconsistent performance , they have lost the top spot in the serie A table. Napoli is now  in third place in the Serie A table.

I am interested in betting on Bologna to win the spercoppa final. Napoli may be considered the  favorite in this match. But Bologna is not a weak team at all. They qualified for the final by defeating Inter Milan. Bologna also has the ability to defeat Napoli.



Napoli's past record against Bologna is not good. Napoli  won only one of the last  5 matches and Bologna won two matches. I can not consider Napoli as a favorite based on any statistics.

But fortunately for them, the league is still in the middle of its season, so there are still many games left to finish, which could give Fiorentina enough time to get out of the relegation zone and finish in a position far away from it. However, for this to happen, they will need to win many games and strive for draws against the big teams. This way they avoid dropping points. It's a shame they won't qualify for European competitions.

There is no De Bruyne which is a big factor in the inconsistencies of Napoli's performance. Lukaku has also been out for quite much time as you know which is another thing to consider. He is back though but I don't know if he will play today.

But the same Napoli still managed to beat Milan nicely by 2-0 in the previous stage. They are looking good in this cup for now. On the other hand Bologna eliminated Inter on penalties and surprised people.

However I still trust Napoli on winning in regular time. 2.15 looks good to bet on.

De Bruyne and Frank anguissa are out of the squad due to injury in this match. And both are very important players in napoli's squad. These two players played an important role in keeping Napoli's midfield stable. Napoli's midfield will naturally be a bit shaky today. On the other hand, lukaku is back in the squad after a long time. He was out of the field for a long time. So the possibility of him  performing well in such a high voltage match is also very low. The  possibility of not keeping lukaku in the starting XI is the most.
IMO the result of the match will largely depend on  Hojlund's performance today. HOjlund is in good form. If he can play well today then napoli has a chance to win. But if hojlund fails to play well then Napoli will probably lose.

[Swordsoffreedom]

Atalanta is slowly returning to form. Although  they are in a good position in the Champions league, their performance in Serie A was very weak, the team was outside the top 10 of the points table  for a long time. But they have gradually stabilized their performance. And in the last few weeks we have seen better performance from the team.

Atalanta managed to win only  2 of their first 12 matches. They shared points in most of the matches. But they have won three of the last 4 matches. And because of this, the team is now in ninth place in the table. Atalanta's squad is not weak. They still have the ability to make it to the top 5 of the table. atalanta is 7 points behind Juventus, who are in fifth place in the table. The performance of almost every team in Serie A is irregular. So if Atalanta is able to keep their performance stable and continue their winning streak, they still have a chance of qualifying for the champions league or europa league.

Oh god finally, finally Fiorentina won a game in this season, i know it was more thanks to Udinese having one men less for the whole game than anything else but doesnt matter they need to win no matter how and they make it possible and better of all it was a huge win with 4 goals i hope this give them a fresh air for the second stage of the season and they can climb positions and get out from relegation.

A very difficult mid-season for Fiorentina, possibly continuing until the end of this season. They are struggling to get out of the relegation zone, and next season won’t be any better for them if they get relegated. 
A meaningful win for them, but I’m not sure it will change much in their team’s situation. There’s a chance they can escape, but they need to work hard and make changes starting now. They are not a promoted team, they are just going through a rough patch. They should be able to do better.

I doubt if their lucky win yesterday will take them anywhere this is because they are in a bad shape and position already and their win yesterday was as a result of the one man that was sent off from their opponents if not you don't expect Fiorentina to score up to 5 goals when they find it difficult to score in most of their games. I know that winning has a way of motivating a team but in their poor state it's difficult to see them escaping relegation.

It looks like Fiorentina will have to fight even harder to emerge from their crisis. It's hard to believe La Viola has sunk so deeply, and it seems the management needs to act quickly to ensure the team's progress. The win over Udinese was certainly convincing, and it should be a valuable asset as we look ahead to the next match with another win in mind. There's still plenty of hope for Fiorentina to stay in Serie A, and I don't think it's too late. The fans must not remain silent and continue to raise their voices, pressuring the management to make changes for the team's progress.
