Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[$weetne$$]

Actually the first half looked balanced as one can see from the statistics as well.



However Como captured the score advantage... Juventus look really devastated as they aren't playing good at all today. Losing to Inter and Galatasaray in a row must have demoralized them a lot I guess. 

I think Como won't lose today. A draw or a win for them is what I expect as of now. If they win this one then things will get more interesting. Because their chance for the Europa League will be bigger and maybe even for the Champions League too!

Depending on Roma's result against Cremonese...

Como is one team you should not make the mistake of underestimating for any reason whatsoever, because, they will give you the most suprise you never saw coming and as for Juventus, it is a really sad situation with them, whenever they happen to suffer a slight decline, they further allow it flow all the way in a row and they hardly recover from it through the season, I hope this does not turn out to be one. Como did won by two goals, so you can tell from that result what their fate is likely to be.

[Uhde]

Juventus just stepped onto the pitch with what might be the best kit design i’ve ever seen in my life. Seriously it’s a perfect jersey. I don’t understand why it’s so hard to come up with designs like this. players look like the Daltons out there for real. i loved it. Regardless of the match itself.

I'm so much impressed with how Como are performing this season, their match against Juventus as ended and they won with two goals to nothing. Juventus performance is not impressive at all, they hosted this match and there were defeated, they could not be able to even score a goal, i am disappointed with them because i was not expecting this results despite their performance, they always work hard to maintain unbeating at home but unfortunately Como bring it to an end.

this year's squad might be the worst Juventus side in history. i don't even want to talk much about the match for that reason. all i’ll say is they need to fire that keeper. This guy Di Gregorio is a total sieve. he’s not the only problem but he’s the biggest one in my opinion.
Aside from that like I said the kits are legendary i love them.

I'm so much impressed with how Como are performing this season, their match against Juventus as ended and they won with two goals to nothing.

Indeed, for now Como has done their best in the Italian League, that is progress for the Como team, but there is still a long way to go, of course the Como team has to train hard, even though yesterday was Thursday Milan vs. Como ends 1-1 Como on Saturday will face Lecce.

In the semifinals of Leg 1 of 2, Como atan faced Inter, then the Cagliari and Roma teams and so on, this was a real challenge for the Como team itself, but if Como really shows their talent in the Italian Serie A, of course this will open up a good opportunity to enter the next round, but for now it's not bad.

[shinratensei_]

Juventus played against Como today in their new kit, but they suffered another 0-2 defeat.
The biggest share of the blame for today's loss lies with goalkeeper Di Gregorio.
Di Gregorio has been experiencing a significant drop in form lately. He made major mistakes in both of Como's goals today.
I also saw that Juventus were very poor in front of goal today.

I totally agree Di Gregorio is a disastrous goal keeper, but let's not put all of the blame on him. I know how poor he was but this is game of eleven people. So it's not only him who should be blamed. Look at the player ratings. All of Juve defenders being rated low. They're all played badly. No doubt that Di Grorio got nervous due to it.
So entire players in the team should be blamed. they're terrible in attack and defense. So they deserve this painful lost due to their abysmal performance.

If they defend and attack better, they would not be losing this badly to Como. The fact that all of players are played badly. So you can't really use someone as a scapegoat for the lost to Como

[Iamgoat]

At the moment, Juventus is down by a goal at the Allianz stadium and although it's just 30 minutes into the game, they'd have to do their best to get back in the game cause another loss isn't something Luciano Spalleti wants especially as they came from a huge one in the UCL after they lost to Galatasaray so it's very important that they win this game, if not for anything, at least to strengthen their hopes for the title if possible and to drop Roma in 5th while they move up 4th, drawing further to Napoli.

Fabrigas is on fire with his team right now. This is probably the best shot of Como this season with the way they are fearless and are leading goals at almost all their games without any fear or staggering, they are always confident in their appearances and tend to push with all their attacking ability and defensive skills to win their games. I equally noticed how well they’ve been trained by the coach to strengthen their sportsmanship and teamwork techniques and with such, they have been formidable and fearless in the competition climbing the ladder of success gradually. Their next game is against Lecce and they will be playing home which means they are definitely going to win this match and if they are able to do so, they will climb up their table above the Juventus and probably even Roma.

My assessment of Juventus is completely numb. I mean, I personally am confused about how to evaluate this team. Because this is not the first season that Juventus has repeated several mistakes and failed in Serie A. In previous seasons, even more than three seasons, we have seen this team appear to be unstable. They are sometimes good in one game but poor in another.

However, the loss to Como doesn't surprise me too much. It's not just Juventus that has struggled against Como. Other big teams have faced the same challenges.

[Velvet78]

Juventus are in a free fall these days. They couldn't get a win in their last 5 official games in all tournaments. 4 of them ended up with a loss including the one against Como today.

When you look at the stats you see a good balance. Except the quality of shots though...    Como scored 2 goals from 1.41 xG while Juventus got 0 with 0.70 xG. Goal expectation isn't everything but tells one how things went in summary.

Como even won without Paz. Now they will hope for Roma to lose points too to get closer to top 4.

I have nothing but sympathy for Juventus. They played a match at home that even Como fans might be criticizing. Juventus didn't just fail against Como, they also lost to Galatasaray by a big margin in the previous match, lost to Inter Milan, struggled against Lazio. In other words, they haven't done well in the last matches. They are also not learning from their mistakes like Arsenal. After being eliminated from the Champions League, they may now fail to finish in the top 6 in Serie A.

[Slow death]

After more than 8 games without a home defeat, Juventus lost at home today. Honestly, I didn't expect this defeat because they've been very strong at home, at least, which is why in the worst-case scenario I expected a draw, not a defeat. With this terrible result, I already foresee another defeat in the next game, and the worst part is that Juventus conceded 7 goals in two games, and I hope they don't concede 5 goals again in the next game against Galatasaray. It's a shame that Juventus hasn't been able to fight for the title in the last 4 years. They've declined a lot.

[len01]

I’ve got a question for all serie A fans. After seeing Como hold their own in an away game against Milan, do you think they could pull off a draw against Juventus too?

Or maybe even defeat them!

Even though the odds favor Juventus to win, I still expect a very good result from Como whether a draw or a win because Juventus performance this season is something else…they lose in matches they can easily win.

As we saw in the previous meeting, Como even managed to beat Juventus, and there's a good chance Como won't lose tomorrow, or at least a draw would be the best option. If that happens, I'd say serie A is truly becoming very difficult to predict. And I must commend Como for their performance, always ready and eager to make it difficult for the top teams to win.

The last meeting between them, Como played at home and they managed to score two goals and conceded none to secure the victory, Juventus will play at home this time but I still expect something from Como.

Everything you said earlier actually happened today, and yeah, Como has truly become a giant killer against the big, popular teams in serie A. This repeated defeat is really embarrassing for Juventus as one of the most popular teams in Serie A, especially losing heavily in both meetings this season. Even when Como used different formations, they were still able to beat Juventus. This clearly shows that Juventus has seriously lost its consistency, and if this keeps happening, their chances of chasing a top 4 spot will become very difficult.

I also want to give praise to Fabregas as Como’s coach, because he really knows how to identify and exploit the weaknesses of other big teams.

From the  beginning of the season como has proven to be very formidable and I don't think anyone would dare underestimate them. I expected Juventus to win or perhaps hold the game to a draw because they had home advantage but unfortunately they could not do that. After losing to Galatasaray in the champions league I thought they would use this game to at least make up for it but they couldn't do that.

Juventus sometimes reminds me of Manchester United's situation in the Premier League in recent seasons. which has been quite poor. But they eventually started to bounce back, even though the competition there is much fiercer. And I think Juventus will also bounce back someday and return to its glory days. However, given the club's current situation I doubt it will happen anytime soon. Because the club's issues aren't just about the players or management. They also involve financial problems and some internal issues. So, yes, feeling sympathy for this team is not wrong at all. Because the team even seemed like it was about to bounce back. but we remember the incident where they were deducted 10 points a few seasons ago. Which, to be honest, was quite disappointing.

I have always had a little thing for Como because of Cesc Fabregas and Nico Paz, I always thought it was going to be hard for Como to win especially when I saw the lineup and Nico Paz was absent, thought it will reduce the attacking power of the team but winning Juve 2-0 with a cleansheet is remarkable. Looking at it now it looks more realistic because Juventus are really not in that top form. But after that Champions League disastrous performance, I thought they would do better.

The Juventus can't seem to find their way back as you may have noticed that the team lost by a huge margin to Galatasaray in the Champions League and today's game was also a 2-0 defeat against the Como team, which will also cause Como fans to condemn their poor performance. Juventus lost to Inter Milan in their previous Serie A match, but from what I saw, they had a competitive game there. Overall, Como deserve praise because they ignored Juventus today and defeated Napoli in the Coppa Italia earlier. The main thing is that this team has great concentration and they start the game very planned, as a result we can see that they now have forty five points even Como is currently just one point behind Juventus.

[ITExpert]

Inter are in a much better position than Milan this season. Don't let their Champions League playoff defeat fool you. They are still the strongest team in the Italian league, and as you said, they have a 7 point lead. Milan are still chasing them and keeping their championship hopes alive. Of course, I would like to see them compete until the final weeks, but I expect Inter to clinch the championship early.

Because of their better struggle and better play games they can become even better and strong which will bring Milan closer to them and in the end it will not be difficult for them to become champions. The lack of Inter will remove this gap from the  so it is not enough ye they must continue to struggle so that their better struggle becomes even better so that their victory becomes stronger. If they had not played badly in some of their old games perhaps this difference would not have been there but they can still make up for this difference by play better and they should not need any mistakes from them to make them further away. This is also possible because Inter is now much better and I do not think Milan will weak it and Victory itself.

I can’t deny them to have not put in their best, they obviously have put in all they could but it just wasn’t good enough. They’ve had a decline in their performance and it’s being reflected in all their recent fixtures. Como got them good and they’ve got to go and reflect on that.

Inter Milan is having a hard time against Lecce, I figure this to be due to the absence of L. Martinez to injury, his being such as force for his side and with him out, the team is going to struggle to keep a good performance.

[harapan]

i’m just happy that I did not include this match in my bet slip, I wanted to bet on this match and the prediction that was coming to my mind was for Juventus to win, but Something told me told me not to play the game because Juventus cannot be trusted, and I listened to my mind and didn’t include the match, and right now I’m just checking live score to see that they lost the match and I’m very sure a lot of people predicted Juventus to win and now they have lost the bet, a friend of mine was telling me I made a mistake for not including Juventus in my bet slip that Juventus will surely win the match when I saw this results, I quickly called him and he just laughed, to be honest Juventus has really lost form and if they don’t get back to form they may not finish top 4 this season.

Fabregas is that name Arsenal fans are currently dreaming of as manager who will win them the league. I wad not expecting too much from Juventus after being battered by Galatasaray in the Champions League. Spalletti has a whole other of upgrades to do within the squad. Como did not just win but played better run better and made sure the travelling fans get the three points and necessary entertainment this noon

[stompix]

this year's squad might be the worst Juventus side in history.

It's not even th worse in the last 3 years , what are you talking about?
In 22/23 Juventus finished 7th outside the European Cup placings with just 62 points.
To be that bad again, Juventus would need to gather in the next 12 matches only 14 points, so on average the same as Lecce or Cagliari...

Fabrigas is on fire with his team right now. This is probably the best shot of Como this season with the way they are fearless and are leading goals at almost all their games without any fear or staggering, they are always confident in their appearances and tend to push with all their attacking ability and defensive skills to win their games. I equally noticed how well they’ve been trained by the coach to strengthen their sportsmanship and teamwork techniques and with such, they have been formidable and fearless in the competition climbing the ladder of success gradually.

Yeah yeah yeah....stop the glazing!
Como even with this victory, is still BELOW Juventus, so if one is going to say Juventus is in freefall and plays like crap, then the team below them, like Como, are obviously playing worse than crap!

For god' sake has eveyone forgot what happened a week ago?

[lizarder]

Indeed, for now Como has done their best in the Italian League, that is progress for the Como team, but there is still a long way to go, of course the Como team has to train hard, even though yesterday was Thursday Milan vs. Como ends 1-1 Como on Saturday will face Lecce.

Como's consistency in the Italian League is truly impressive and they are able to play effectively against strong Serie A teams. This shows significant improvement for a team like Como. There's still a long way to go until the end of the season, so Como is required to play more consistently if they want to finish in a much better position, although we know the road won't be easy as other teams will also be trying to achieve a much better position in the standings.

In the last match, Como managed to beat Juventus and currently Como's position is in sixth place in the standings so if they want to qualify for the Champions League and Europa League, Como must be able to achieve a much better position in the remaining matches because Roma and Juventus will definitely not let them reach that position easily.

Como even won without Paz. Now they will hope for Roma to lose points too to get closer to top 4.

Juventus collapses in real time. They are 95% eliminated from the Champions League and are now outsiders in the fight for the top 4. Even if Roma lose their game, they are still one point ahead, plus Como is 1 point behind Juventus. On the one hand it's sad, on the other hand there's always one of the big four that fails and it's nice to see other clubs getting a chance, I think Como deserves theirs.
I'll also be interested in the outcome of the Fiorentina-Pisa game, a death match between relegation battlers.
