Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[knowngunman]

Well I’m still very shocked how Napoli managed to drop vital points against Hellas Verona, they knew how important picking all 3 points was in this game and they let it slip away, how did they even ended up conceding 2 goals against Verona. This is a set back for them and I just really hope they can recover from this, and again let see if it doesn’t affect them winning the scudetto.

Big win for inter Milan as they continue to give reason why they might win the scudetto this season, well I expected them to win also but seeing them playing away from home was a bit tricky they at the end they got the job done.

Fiorentina also secured a point in a very big fixture, they have started the new year in a very good way and if they continue in this way they might have a chance to escape the relegation zone.

It's incredible Napoli lost a point to Hellas Verona at their own play group. It's better to get a point than to lose it completely but this is never a good record for Napoli at all. The officiating didn't favor Napoli and it somehow contributed to the draw but that was entirely a different thing to worry about. How they allowed Verona to score two goals and then struggle to come from behind to draw is worrisome. It's not worth blaming the refree for the fact that they are the defending champions and they played against a team like Verona who's on the verge of relegation. Mind you, Napoli is playing Inter next and this means nothing much should be expected from them.

Well, as you expected, Napoli finally managed to score 2 goals & the 2 goals were scored by McTominay & Di Lorenzo. Napoli should have won this match if one of their goals was not disallowed. You saw right, the goal scored by Hojlund in the 75th minute was disallowed by the referee. A draw isn't bad compared to a loss, but if they had won, they would have been at the top of the Serie A table by now, it was a shame that opportunity was missed.

You are right because the draw that Napoli got was not that bad and they even dominated the match, although they should have won the match if they had converted several chances, despite Hojlund's goal being disallowed by the referee. Napoli also dominated the match, but a defensive error changed everything, forcing them to accept a draw. This should be a concern for the coach as these mistakes could have an impact on the title race and they should not drop any more points in their next match as that would be quite detrimental.

To me, I know Napoli put in a wonderful performance in that game, but that draw was not a good result, as they may not be able to win their next match against Inter Milan. This could make them drop points, and if care is not taken, they might even drop to 5th position on the table. That would not be a good position to be in, as we hope that Napoli will be able to maintain a top-four place in the table this season. However, as things are going now, I can only hope Napoli put in more effort to do better.

I concur that goals are not the only valuable assets that can be used in winning the title of the Serie A. The attacking form of Inter is impressive, but the balance, consistency, and a strong defense help to build a championship. Even in cases when Napoli, Milan and Juventus are close at the standings, a minor defensive slip is an expensive affair. Inter are also playing a number of tournaments and this also requires consistency of the squad. Provided that they are able to build their defenses in a relatively short period, preserving their offensive effectiveness, Inter will keep being contenders in the title race; otherwise, the competition will be extremely close until the last weeks.

This championship is becoming very competitive and I like it because it raises the level of the teams that will then go to Europe to show who they really are, I think that now the standings are shaping up for what it will be in the future, Now Inter seem the strongest team for now

It may looks like it is competitive because almost all the top teams aside inter Milan are bang average, even inter Milan that are a level above the rest are not that strong like the previous seasons, so  that is why the Italian seria A looks like it's very competitive, but in reality, their level is very down, that is why they are mostly exposed in European competition anyhow by teams they should be putting to the sword regardless of their form.

Unless the form of other teams below inter Milan improves, I don't think any of the teams from second to six can dislodge inter Milan from that top position they are currently occupying right now, because they would rather lose more points than being consistent enough to dislodge inter Milan from that top position.

[lizarder]

If Napoli had not been 2 goals down at half time maybe the comeback would have been good in addition to the VAR that made the goal disallowed, actually this is more than enough than losing just keep winning a point it will miss Inter who is likely to win tonight.

This is something that is not the end, Serie A time is still long the title race can still be pursued by Napoli as long as they cannot make mistakes where they lose points especially playing with underdog teams that are in relegation.

Napoli's play was ineffective in the first half, with players making mistakes that led to goals. I saw no player in the first half who was able to control the game. A draw is certainly better than a defeat, but in a much tighter competition, Napoli shouldn't be dropping points in every match so they can maintain their position in the standings. Inter Milan and Milan may have benefited from Napoli's results, as both teams have managed to maintain first and second place for the time being.

There are still many matches to play and I hope Napoli don't make any more mistakes in their next match. If they get inconsistent results again, their chances might be different, especially now that the competition has entered the second half of the season and every team will definitely try to do their best.

However, as things are going now, I can only hope Napoli put in more effort to do better.

Napoli are now four points behind Inter following yesterday's disappointing result. Inter have gained an advantage over Napoli in the race for the top spot. However, their other rival, Milan, remains a serious competitor. Milan will play a match today, and if they win, they will maintain the same point difference with Inter. We will see two Milan teams in the title race with a one-point difference. The two points Napoli lost in the match where they salvaged a draw in the final minutes could be seen as a significant problem towards the end of the season.

Tonight the nineteenth round of Serie A will soon come to a close. The Cremonese vs Cagliari and even AC Milan vs Genoa matches will be held in the next few hours. In their last two matches AC Milan has managed to win both as the home team and as the away team. AC Milan also won their last head-to-head match against Genoa even though they were the away team. This time AC Milan will be the home team against Genoa. So I personally believe that AC Milan will dominate this match and even win it. I will try my luck by choosing AC Milan as the winner for this upcoming match. As for Cremonese vs Cagliari I personally don't feel confident about betting on this match. I will personally monitor this match first in the first half to get a clearer picture of which team is performing better. What are your thoughts on these matches?

Inter Milan has already benefited from the draw of Napoli after they won their game same yesterday, the draw pained me more because I had already placed a bet on Napoli to win and I thought it was going to be an easy one since Inter Milan, Napyand Ac Milan are all dragging the first position, I felt that they will easily beat their opponent. The draw was an avoidable one only if they had taken the match more seriously instead of playing around and giving away two goals earlier in the first half.

[verdinio]

Even in this match where visibility was poor, Inter maintained their concentration until the last minute, which is why they were able to score another goal with their high-pressure tactics in the final moments.

The fog on the pitch was also caused by some smoke bombs, but i don't think this is the reason for Parma's defeat, on the contrary i think it is due to a superior technical ability of Inter who are dominating the standings perfectly at the moment

[Pandu Geddon]

However, their other rival, Milan, remains a serious competitor. Milan will play a match today, and if they win, they will maintain the same point difference with Inter. We will see two Milan teams in the title race with a one-point difference.

Milan will face Genoa, who haven't gotten good results in recent matches. Genoa themselves are struggling to stay out of the relegation zone, but their performance has indeed not been good. Facing Milan will certainly be a tough match for Genoa. Hopefully, Milan will win the match, so they can continue to be competitors with Inter for the title this season.

Inter Milan's victory last night making 4 points gap and Milan must get winning the match against Genoa, not only shouldn't conceded goals but also Milan must scoring as many as possibility goals regarding left many difference goals with Inter Milan. Last night, Serie A have several surprising result matches exactly Napoli hold drawn by Hellas Verona and make Milan still at 2nd position although has the same points but has one match left.
Yeah, Genoa is not strong Serie A team for this season not winning the one match yet last four games in a row if Milan can get three points will make one points remaining with Inter Milan already win this matchday match after defeating Parma last match.

Inter Milan continues to win, but they obviously had an easy time against Parma, given that Parma is a lower-ranked team. Only on 18 points, Inter Milan has practically more than double the number of points. I'd say they were almost obligated to win.
I also think Milan will win against Genoa

Napoli are now four points behind Inter following yesterday's disappointing result. Inter have gained an advantage over Napoli in the race for the top spot. However, their other rival, Milan, remains a serious competitor. Milan will play a match today, and if they win, they will maintain the same point difference with Inter. We will see two Milan teams in the title race with a one-point difference. The two points Napoli lost in the match where they salvaged a draw in the final minutes could be seen as a significant problem towards the end of the season.

We all know that Napoli will hardly meet the title race again, as things are going sideways for them. It will not be easy for them to climb back to their position, because if Napoli lose their game against Inter Milan, that will push them further down the table. Already, the title race is between the top two teams, Inter Milan and AC Milan. Although, based on the way Inter Milan are playing, AC Milan might not have the opportunity to surpass them in points easily this season.

Yes, next week Inter will play Napoli at home. Napoli's chances of getting points in this match are very slim because, considering their injured players and out-of-form team, Inter could take three points at home and potentially knock Napoli out of the title race. Similarly, for Napoli, a victory in this match would mean getting back into the title race. This match next week will be one of the most crucial matches of the season.

Lazio rarely lose, and if you look at their matches, they have only lost to teams from the top of the table, such as Napoli, Milan, and Inter. In most of their other games, they either play for a win or draw. Fiorentina are doing much worse, especially in away matches, where they do not win at all. Therefore, I think Lazio will not lose today. I think Napoli should beat Verona, and I also expect a victory from Inter today.

It was a good draw that shows the fact that Fiorentina has certainly resumed doing positive things and is succeeding in the feat of moving forward, now they just have to unlock the striker and show that this thing can go on and succeed in the feat of recovering the championship

Milan will face Genoa, who haven't gotten good results in recent matches. Genoa themselves are struggling to stay out of the relegation zone, but their performance has indeed not been good. Facing Milan will certainly be a tough match for Genoa. Hopefully, Milan will win the match, so they can continue to be competitors with Inter for the title this season.

Genoa is a team just above the relegation zone. That shouldn't be a problem for Milan. I think Milan will easily win this match. Especially with Inter winning and Napoli dropping points this week, Milan absolutely needs to get 3 points. I like Italy in general, the competition between the teams is very intense. Right now, three teams are in the title race, and the others are always in contention. Every team has the potential to reach the top of the table at any moment.

I guess inter Milan coach deserve some big reward from inter Milan president this season, because he has trained his players to dominate what people want from them in this season. They keep winning their games in Italian league games and other games to prove how strong they are in this season to lift what they have not lifted before. I knew that inter Milan game will end up for the favour of inter Milan, because they started the game with their right players that know how to secure goals fast to weak their opponent, and they did it yesterday to beat Parma to secured another victory again.

Now that Napoli has draw their game yesterday 2:2, I guess inter Milan will maintain this high points difference to clear doubt from their fans mind, because they have what it takes to win their remaining games to lift this Italian trophy.

The draw was an avoidable one only if they had taken the match more seriously instead of playing around and giving away two goals earlier in the first half.

It was indeed unfortunate for Napoli, playing at home against opponents in the relegation zone. However, the home team conceded the first goal, despite having 70% possession, but they were unable to score early on. So Napoli had to work hard in the second half, which generally gives them enough time to turn things around, but Napoli lacked the ability to do so. And you shouldn't be sad just because of this, because teams that are initially underestimated can indeed pull off surprises in certain matches.

[*Ace*]

* Napoli - Hellas Verona => Napoli
 * Parma - Inter Milan => Inter Milan
 * AC Milan - Genoa => AC Milan
 * Juventus - Cremonese => Juventus

This is the little bet, it's been a long time since I placed any bets, during the holiday break I did practically nothing

of course, ty Napoli is broken

It was unforeseeable that Napoli would drop two points at home by drawing against Hellas Verona! They were also fortunate because at the end of the first half, Hellas Verona was leading the match 2-0.
Napoli then managed to equalise, but not without taking many risks!
Who knows if they will be able to close the gap on Inter now.

[colinistheman]

Napoli truly dominated a majority of the game and made a number of good opportunities. It is annoying that the goal made by Hojlund was not allowed as that would have scored them all three points and they would have been first in the table. It is not disastrous, but the defensive lapse, which made the equalizor possible, is troubling. Unless they are willing to be a serious challenge and win the Serie A championship, such minor errors cannot continue to occur. To remain in the title race, the coach will be required to tighten things up and make sure that they are able to convert more chances in the upcoming matches.

I will not say Napoli performed badly. But napoli should have performed better against Hellas Verona, who are in the relegation zone. Also, it was Napoli's home match. It was completely unexpected that napoli would fail to win at home. I'm sure a lot of bettors lost money on this match.

Napoli's defenders did not play well. Maybe they underestimated hellas verona. Napoli were behind by 2-0  in just  27 minutes. Napoli did not  score a goal in the first half. Napoli's players dominated the match, attacking a lot. But  they still couldn't win the match. Napoli are  4 points behind inter milan  due to the loss of points in this match.

In yesterday's matches, the away teams managed to win without conceding a goal.
Pisa failed to make much of an impact at home against Como, and Como secured all three points away with three goals. Como are very close to their rivals and, even if they don't win the championship, they have an intimidating style of play.
Roma, meanwhile, secured victory with two goals in their away match against Lecce. There weren't many chances in this match, and Roma managed to return from this away fixture without making any mistakes, thanks to the two goals they scored.
Juventus managed to secure all three points with three goals away at Sassuolo. Leading 1-0 at half-time, Jonathan David scored one goal and provided one assist in the second half to put his team 3-0 ahead, playing a major role in securing the three points.

That is definitely true. I did not expect all three games to end this way, Como and Juventus got three points with three goals, whereas Roma also scored tow goals and none of them conceded a single goal.

I think it's clear that we are seeing something changing and things are looking very good. Not saying that it's a bad one but I think it's definitely a good situation for them. Roma is the one that must be feeling bad, they won but yet they are still not ahead of Juventus yet, probably hoped for it.
