Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Agbe]

Both Atalanta and napoli have been in a bit of a slump lately. And in today's match, both teams have been in almost similar form. But Napoli took the lead in just 18 minutes with a  goal from Beukema. Napoli are leading 1-0 at the end of the first half.

This was Atalanta's home match. So I expected Atalanta to at least not lose this match. They have been undefeated for a long time. But they are 1-0 down at the end of the first half. Anyway , Atalanta still has enough time to make a  comeback. Let's see if they can play well in the second half.

Atalanta later won by two goals, they out performed Napoli even as they are considered not to be in their best of form, Napoli took the lead at first but Atalanta did a brilliant come back and used their home advantage to the fullest.  Napoli has been really messy recently and it is so bad that they can be winning and still loose the game just like as it was seen in this game. For this season I think Napoli will just make sure to have a good finish but as it concerns top four or title, I do not really figure them in to be amongst those.

As things are going currently, Napoli will have to be more serious, if not, they might not end the season in the top four of the table. Although, mostly it changes because even in this game, Napoli looked like they would do something tangible from the beginning, not until almost the second half when they started being scanty on the pitch.

Although the victory of Atalanta today is really worth it, because they played their very best in the game, and that is what they are normally known for. Even though they are currently sharing the same points with Como, I know they will be able to do better, considering their performance today.

I stopped taking Napoli seriously after they allowed como to equalize in the last match they had, this season has to be the worst performance they have had so far. Atalanta's performance in the second half was unexpected because they have also been in a bad form. Napoli can't really be productive this season, it makes me wonder how they fell from performing well last season to being very backwards this season.

Talking about Como, did you know that if they were in the Premier League, they would be better than Chelsea? Even in Serie A, they are doing their best, because this is their first season in Serie A, and Fabregas has been able to make them draw with bigger teams and even win some.

So it will not be as easy as we expected it to be. Como are doing amazing; they not only drew with Napoli, but also with the same Atalanta. Although Napoli’s own was in the Coppa Italia, maybe that is why you stopped taking them seriously.

I hope the person that argued that Ac Milan is consistent can read this, Ac Milan is very inconsistent and I think that Como will soon go over them on the table.
The only way Ac Milan is consistent is their coach or any of their coaching staff getting a Red card.
Parma’s goal was indisputable but Ac Milan coaching crew always complain.

After Milan loss to Parma, I wrote them off this season's Serie A title race, as Inter would win the trophy. A 10 point gap over Inter would certainly make it difficult for Milan to catch up especially given their inconsistent form. I thought Milan would be one of the teams capable of competing with Inter this season as they only played in Serie A matches. However, Milan failed to capitalize on that even losing against Parma. Therefore, I think their chances of winning the trophy are hopeless. Napoli and Juventus also experienced the same thing this week losing crucial matches.

Serie A was very competitive at the start, with narrow points differences. However, gradually, many teams have become inconsistent, with Inter the only consistent team so far. So I think this season's Serie A is more interesting, especially after Como's convincing victory over Juventus. Como have been impressive this season and it's interesting to see if Fabregas can lead them to Champions League football next season. Como are only five points off third place and two points off fourth place.

Ac Milan should not be second on the Serie A table because I have written them off because of their inconsistency but the Italian Serie A is in a different category of a diminishing league.
Ac Milan is 10 points away from inter Milano, Napoli lost today to Atalanta more points dropped there.

[Slow death]

Yoo!

What’s happening to AC Milan? They lost to Parma this night again in the Serie A, actually I don’t even understand how that happened but Parma defender Troilo scored from the corner in the 80th…with some controversies but it was later still declared a goal by VAR giving Parma the winning goal to seal this victory against Milan.

Inter Milan have a very strong chance of winning the title this season as all of the contenders aren’t that consistent in winning their matches and they’re basically ten points ahead of the second place Ac Milan right now, so…

With Milan's defeat against Parma, after two consecutive victories, Milan may have said goodbye to the title race. They are 10 points behind Inter, and I think it would be an almost impossible mission for them to catch Inter. Now they only need to focus on securing a place in the European Champions League, which is more realistic for them. Napoli also lost against Atalanta. Interestingly, Napoli scored first, but Atalanta managed to equalize and win the game. Serie A is full of surprises.

Como are playing the dream out here, I’m not sure how they’ll fair in the premier league but they’ll surely survive with the way they’re playing.
Napoli if they continue playing like this they might fall off the top four, if AS Roma wins their next game they’ll be in the same points as Napoli and will overtake them in the standings based on goal difference.
It’ll be a tough fight this season to complete the top four spots in the standings.

Atalanta defeated Napoli 2–1 at home. With this loss, Napoli are now completely out of the title race.

This victory is very important for Atalanta because they earned a crucial three points in the battle to finish 5th or 6th in the league.

AS Roma also secured an important win and maintained their position in the standings. They managed to keep the points gap with their rivals intact.

I don’t know, but that Atalanta comeback really killed me. The referee first disallowed a penalty for Napoli, and then in the second half ruled out a goal because supposedly Hojlund made a foul in the build up. Honestly, i don’t think it was a foul, but whatever.Then Milan lose at home to Parma, who are mid table, and with that the title race feels even further away. Roma closed the gap and now have the same number of points as Napoli.Napoli play Verona next round, while Roma have a tough home game against Juventus. Inter have pulled away pretty quickly and convincingly, and as things stand they look like champions, but i don’t want to say too much. Either way, it’s going to be interesting until the end because there’s a huge battle coming between 2. and 6. place. And Como are looking really promising so far, playing some great football

Ac Milan is 10 points away from inter Milano, Napoli lost today to Atalanta more points dropped there.

Several teams have been experiencing a decline in Serie A lately. This weekend's results clearly show that Inter Milan remains a very consistent team, winning every match, while teams like AC Milan, Napoli, and Juventus have started losing again this weekend. I'm even more worried that Como will overtake those three teams if things don't improve in the upcoming matches, as Como beat Juventus at home this weekend, giving Como another chance to close in on the top four in Serie A.

That's what I think, AC Milan should have taken advantage of the opportunity to play at home at least 3 points can reduce the points gap with Inter Milan but unfortunately AC Milan missed the opportunity and I agree with you that AC Milan is not on the race track which means Inter Milan is very comfortable at the top of the standings without any competitors. Now the focus in Serie A is the fight for tickets to UEFA or UCL and yeah at least 6 teams are eyeing that position. One thing that caught our attention was Como, we are curious about where this team will finish.

[Just Say]

This match continued the decline of Napoli and the rise of Atalanta. Napoli did not live up to even 50% of the expectations I had for Napoli after winning the Scudetto last season. After the Champions League disaster, they have not done anything in Serie A that we can expect to win the Scudetto. Atalanta has been playing well recently, turning away or losing to those they have in front of them. I am very interested to see where Atalanta ends up at the end of the season.

Atlanta's rise continues in this match as you notice that the defending champions were blown away by the Atlanta team with a 2-1 goal. It is undoubtedly true that the home team overcame an initial setback at the New Balance Arena to win their twenty six round match but I would say that Napoli are plagued by injuries to their players. Napoli have not lived up to the expectations we had after winning the Scudetto last season but yesterday's match saw the visiting team take the lead with a free kick from Beukema in the 18th minute, which gave me the impression that they could at least secure a win against Atalanta. However their team, Scott McTominay, and another of their midfielders were absent against Atalanta, which means we still see this team still 14 points behind leaders Inter Milan.

[wakier]

I would have expected some success in the last few years, but Juventus has only managed to qualify for the Champions League. This year, they qualified for the Champions League through the playoffs and suffered a heavy defeat in the first leg. They will probably be eliminated from the Champions League as well. They may change their manager.

Juventus has changed their manager many times but Juventus performance is still inconsistent throughout the season even though Juventus is one of the clubs that won the most titles in Serie A but since they experienced financial problems their performance began to change probably because they could not recruit quality players like before. It is a pity that a club as good as Juventus has to experience its worst period and even difficulty surviving in the Champions League to qualify for the next round while in the playoff round alone Juventus has suffered a crushing defeat in the first leg, not sure in the second leg they can turn things around.

It wasn’t about them playing at home understandably, it was more about AC Milan not being able to finish the chances they created. They had far more chances than Perma could have hoped to create, far more ball possessions and now, their entire first team was on the pitch for this fixture and instead of making use of all those fire power to get results, they were busy touching the ball around.
A fine thing Perma was able to convert that set price, using all the tricks in the book with a defender having his back against the keeper and the goal scorer jumping early to reduce the air contest and finds the net. Perhaps AC Milan can learn a thing or two from this and score early in their forth coming fixtures.

[Popkon6]

Milan team has embezzled my money, Parma team has won this match undesirably. I have given Milan team a lot of money on the betting table, but they could not show their performance and could not prepare themselves in an offensive way to score goals. Every player from outside the D box and also from inside the D box could kick at the goalpost but could not score. This is a failure for them because I expected Milan team to definitely win this match but they could not prove themselves on their home ground, a lot of gamblers lost money in this match.

[Catenaccio]

People talked too much about Como but they forgot about Atalanta that now have same 45 points totally like Como have. Both clubs are competing with Juventus and AS Roma for a fourth position in Serie A. After this important win against Napoli, Atalanta despite of their very bad start in this season now already officially participate in the fourth position race. Napoli after this defeat must be very careful as with only 5 points more than Como and Atalanta while only 4 points more than Juventus, and more important with their own declining form, they have high risk of losing a fourth position to either Juventus, Como or Atalanta.

Milan finally lost points and not only 2 but 3 points with this shocked defeat by Parma, and it seems they already tried best to compete for Scudetto with Inter Milan so far. Unfortunately, with limited quality player resource, AC Milan players tend to be tired and exhausted then lost their best performances in recent matches. It's just they don't have enough deep quality squad for playing well through a long season especially when the competition is against a very strong and consistent Inter Milan.

Serie A was very competitive at the start, with narrow points differences. However, gradually, many teams have become inconsistent, with Inter the only consistent team so far. So I think this season's Serie A is more interesting, especially after Como's convincing victory over Juventus. Como have been impressive this season and it's interesting to see if Fabregas can lead them to Champions League football next season. Como are only five points off third place and two points off fourth place.

Milan's done. I said it weeks ago and continued walking it back but yeah. Done. They did not just lose to Parma, they dominated that game. Hit the post, had chances, had possession of And still lost. That's almost a more depressing way of going out than just getting outplayed. And Gabbia pulled a muscle of the WARMUP. Then Loftus-Cheek has his jaw broken eleven minutes in. By the goalkeeper. That's just... That's football sometimes.

Allegri was also banned from the touchline that day, which, whatever you think of him as a manager, that stuff is more important than people admit.

Then we have Como beating Juve without their best player? That's the true story of this weekend. Fabregas is cooking up something there. A promoted team, right, and they're sitting there matching Milan on ball difference. That is insane when you think about it.

I actually think that Fabregas gets them into Champions league football. I have no rational reason to believe that but I believe that

Napoli and Juve meanwhile are disintegrating at the same time somehow. Wild week

This victory is very important for Atalanta because they earned a crucial three points in the battle to finish 5th or 6th in the league.

AS Roma also secured an important win and maintained their position in the standings. They managed to keep the points gap with their rivals intact.

At this point Napoli are completely done for the season, losing to Atalanta was a huge embarrassment, even after they managed ti score in the first half and also winning almost winning the game they conceded 2 goals. Napoli are now struggling to even remain in the top four and their loss yesterday put kept roma in the third position. Whatever issue they have cannot really be fixed anytime soon.

[bitgolden]

Como to UCL is still not possible even after this win, while they are closer and that's true that they could maybe reach Europa if they do fine, I still do not think that fourth place is possible for them even after beating Juventus.

One thing to note though, Fabregas is doing wonderful with this team, and just because he has Nico Paz or just because they have money, that doesn't diminish from the talent of Fabregas. I have to admit, I was a big hater, because I thought they were only good because of the money they spent, but obviously that's not the case.

[Hypnotizer]

Atalanta defeated Napoli 2–1 at home. With this loss, Napoli are now completely out of the title race.

Napoli are now fourteen points behind Inter and Ac Milan are ten points behind them also, the closest contender is ten points behind! …and with the performance of Inter this time of the season, I don’t think any scenario could make them lose much matches that can give either Ac Milan or Napoli any chance to get closer to them, so the serie A title to somehow promised to Inter this season.

This victory is very important for Atalanta because they earned a crucial three points in the battle to finish 5th or 6th in the league.

With this win, Atalanta are just one point behind fourth place Juventus and they’re having the same points as Como, so the mist consistent of them will secure a spot in the Champions League if Juventus mistakenly bottle their spot.

AS Roma also secured an important win and maintained their position in the standings. They managed to keep the points gap with their rivals intact.

Roma now have the same points as Napoli and they’ve kinda increase the gap between them and Juventus to four points, that’s really good for them.  They played a really good game btw, Cremonese had zero shots on target in that match..

[hyudien]

Oh Milan do you want to let Inter sit comfortably at the top of the table? I don't know what went wrong with you guys in this match, a match that should have been easy enough to pick up 3 points because you were playing at home, you had all the advantages and remember you were playing the 12th placed team.
Now Milan points difference with Inter is 10 points.
The only excitement for us in the meantime is the race for European football.

[Sexylizzy2813]

At this point what can we say about Ac Milan who killed their title hope with 10pt between them and Inter Milan, is there hope still alive with what we just witnessed yesterday? Honestly I don't see Inter as a team that will lose 3pt in any game in the Serie A instead they'll struggle to get a point and this is where Inter sees this chance Ac Milan gave them as an opportunity to concentrate more on the champions league and if they mistakenly get the job done with Bodo/Glimt then it is over in the Serie A because they'll will make sure of increasing the point gap to be 13pt and so on while they wait for the other 3 teams in the top 4 to keep on struggling and as for Ac Milan they are out of the race because Inter will enjoy winning their games.
