Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[salad daging]

For Milan, this victory can be considered positive because it was a derby they won, but overall it doesn't matter, and I think the Serie A title question is closed, as seven points is too big a difference for Inter to squander in the remaining matches. Milan will have to settle for just a Champions League spot next season. Inter don't have very tough opponents left until the end of the season, so I think they should win the Scudetto.

Inter Milan's chances are big enough to win the Scudetto with a difference of 7 points that is quite comfortable for Inter Milan because there will be no more pressure especially with the remaining matches until the end of the season there are no tough opponents anymore.

It's just that Inter Milan need to recover from some injured players because this slightly affects their playing ability on the front lines, especially since Inter's focus is now only on Serie A and Coppa Italia as titles that can still be contested.

[Slow death]

With 10 games remaining, Milan is the only hope of preventing Inter from winning the Scudetto. Como and Roma are even further behind, so Milan chances of winning the Scudetto are not impossible, as they also have no games outside of Serie A. With both teams focused on domestic football, Inter must be wary and not rest on their laurels with a seven-point lead. The next 10 games present a challenge for Inter, whose form has been particularly poor towards the end of the season.

10 games i.e. about 30 points at the moment
7 points missing, I see it as tough, especially since Inter now has nothing to lose, they only have the Serie A championship
So he will have to work hard, in my opinion, otherwise Chivu risks going home empty-handed..

Unfortunately, Inter's schedule for the next few games isn't good. This defeat may have created pressure on the coach. For example, of Inter's next 4 games:

Inter - Atalanta (could end in a draw or even a defeat for Inter)

Fiorentina - Inter (Inter wins)

Inter - Roma (could end in a draw or even a defeat for Inter)

Como - Inter (could end in a draw or even a defeat for Inter)

And note that Como played the first leg of the Coppa Italia against Inter and the game ended in a draw. The second leg will be at Inter's home ground. I see that in Inter's next 4 games, it's possible they'll only manage to win 1 game, which could lead Inter to lose first place. Those 7 points advantage they have over Milan aren't much compared to the number of games remaining in the league.

[barisbilgili]

This is a derby match, and everyone in the world knows that there are no guaranteed outcomes in these kinds of games. It's the same in Spain, Germany, and Italy. In big matches like this, both teams have an equal chance of winning. Even at their worst, a team can still perform at their best in derbies. Milan weren't considered favorites before the match, but they didn't expect to lose those three points. They've been playing poorly lately.

Football is unpredictable that means that the favorite club can still lose the game which was what happened yesterday and it wasn't a big surprise to me because Milan is also a strong team sitting on the second position on the table. When it comes to these two clubs playing against each other, anything can happen.

the unpredictable nature if football makes it really interesting and having all the fun we get to see when we watch the games. if we had known what the outcome would be, there will be no fun, some persons will even not watch the game, derbies are one of the very interesting league games you can watch, come with a lot of uncertainties and it does not matter how informed or prepared the other side may appear to be, they may still loose.

That is what is always said, that in football anything can happen, and I am not so surprised by this result because, in my opinion, AC Milan also has very good quality; it's just that they cannot maintain consistent performance. This is also a prestigious derby match, so there is extra motivation for each team to play much better, as it also concerns the pride of each player. And to me, AC Milan deserves to win the match regardless of what happens in the game, but the final result is that they are the winners.

Football is unpredictable that means that the favorite club can still lose the game which was what happened yesterday and it wasn't a big surprise to me because Milan is also a strong team sitting on the second position on the table. When it comes to these two clubs playing against each other, anything can happen.

And what happened was a loss for Inter Milan, which for some was a surprise. I hope Milan can perform well for the rest of the season to close in on Inter Milan's points tally. If they draw in other matches, this will make the Serie A season more exciting until the end. The points gap is still quite large, but another loss for Inter Milan could be a big advantage for Milan, who currently sit in second place.

I am not surprised by Inter milan's defeat. But my guess was that the match would be a draw. But AC Milan was a bit lucky. So they were able to secure victory in  the match.

Inter milan have performed very poorly in the last few matches. It was only after the defeat against Bodo/glimt that they fell into such a slump. They are consistently  playing poorly. Their performance against como in the coppa italia match really surprised me. I have not seen such a strange performance from Inter Milan players in past matches. They also played poorly  against AC milan. Just one on target shots in the whole match is not a good performance by  any means.

[giorgione]

Milan won the Milan derby, reducing their lead over Inter from 10 points to seven.
In the 33rd minute, Mkhitaryan had a one-on-one opportunity but shot directly at goalkeeper Maignan.
After this, Milan attacked and Estupinan scored, putting Milan 1-0 ahead in the 34th minute.
Inter attacked more in the second half but couldn't find the net.

I didn't particularly like the match. The level of excitement could have been higher.
Milan won 1-0, but Inter will be the Serie A champions this season. Because Inter has no other goal left.

Milan did a lot of work for this match and the preparation was flawless, Milan won 1-0 but it is also the philosophy of the coach who trains this team, Allegri is also known for this because he is a very important player, and he also has to do a lot to make the team travel to this level, winning against Inter was not a given and a great coach surprises for this too

Unfortunately, Inter's schedule for the next few games isn't good. This defeat may have created pressure on the coach. For example, of Inter's next 4 games:

Inter - Atalanta (could end in a draw or even a defeat for Inter)

Fiorentina - Inter (Inter wins)

Inter - Roma (could end in a draw or even a defeat for Inter)

Como - Inter (could end in a draw or even a defeat for Inter)

And note that Como played the first leg of the Coppa Italia against Inter and the game ended in a draw. The second leg will be at Inter's home ground. I see that in Inter's next 4 games, it's possible they'll only manage to win 1 game, which could lead Inter to lose first place. Those 7 points advantage they have over Milan aren't much compared to the number of games remaining in the league.

The defeat against AC Milan was never part of their plan, but you know football, anything can happen, and despite the defeat against Milan, they still maintain seven points gap which have nothing to panic about because Inter Milan is not playing in the Champions League anymore, their main focus if in the Italian Serie A title, they will
Never want to repeat the same mistake they did last season when they lost the league and still lost the Champions League final to PSG.

I understand how tough these games looks like, but with the momentum Inter Milan has since they get eliminated from the Champions League anymore, I will say that they can get out with complete twelve points in these games because all these are winnable games for them, but we can’t say, so I will expect them to get at least nine points from these four matches.

The pressure is there, but Milan is hit also consistent same as Napoli; therefore, I am still given the league to Inter Milan this season.

[jakdanyel]

Roma just can't improve their form even with a match against Genoa. Then they deserve the 5th place now honestly... Como deserve top 4 more than them with their recent form. This was their 3rd win in a row!

However the top 4 race isn't ending just like that of course. Como, Roma and Juventus all are in only 1-point interval. There are still 10 more weeks to go.


By the way I got bored while watching the Milano derby a lot! Milan won maybe but still they have a big obstacle ahead like 7 points...

[stompix]

Remember we discussed the Como-Roma game? Now it's ahead, the teams are tied on points, and Juventus is ready to beat both if there's a draw.
Como is the favorite, both according to bookmakers and statistics (not surprisingly, these two opinions coincide, haha). Naturally, I wouldn't be surprised by any result, but if I were to place a bet, it would be Como Double Chance.
I expect that Atalanta, busy in the Champions League, will not try to restore the intrigue and will lose to Inter without a fight.

I expected Roma to lose points, but not against Genoa, I would have understood against Inter, maybe Bologna, again weird that they will play 3 times in two months against them, but Genoa...It's going to be a race of who makes fewer mistakes rather than who is clearly a better player.
Well no big deal, I will be avenged next year in CL when the much cheered Como will pull a Napoli!

[pewboy]

The way Inter performed brilliantly in the Champions League last season, their performance this season was not good at all. So since Inter has been eliminated from the Champions League, they will have to focus on their domestic league and must return to form to maintain their position. Because their loss against Milan which can disappoint them even more, they will have to improve their game.

Yes, Inter is the strongest team in the Serie A championship, but yesterday they lost against Milan and so this says a lot about the consistency of the performances of these guys, clearly there are more important matches that they absolutely had to win but they didn't, this leads to discontent and poor performances.

[MK-74]

I was honestly surprised by the result last night. AS Roma lost 2–1 to Genoa . I didn’t expect a defeat like this from Roma.

AC Milan defeated Inter Milan 1–0 at home and ended Inter’s 15-match unbeaten streak.

With this victory, the points gap between them has dropped to 7. There is still a chance for Milan, but it’s a small one.

[tygeade]

If anyone watched the game, kudos to Milan for defeating Inter obviously but it was one of the most boring and Italian type of game there is. There weren't that many big chances, not that many shots, and it was mainly great defenses just waiting for midfield to pass around, that's it, nothing happened in the game.

Sure there were couple of shots, but even the number of shots weren't that much from both teams combined, normally a single team has more on target shots in a game them both of them combined (combined they had 3 on target shots). So this is why I say that it was a very boring game, because nobody really had that much to do. Inter had literally just one shot attempt that hit the target, that's just humiliating.

[khiholangkang]

Napoli has indeed seen some decline, especially in defense. We can't deny that situation regarding Napoli. BTTS is certain (yes), the team's condition allows for that to happen.
Conte must be aware of the position of his defense, with the current players needing to be improved. Acquiring new players will certainly be difficult, but he can provide insight and training to existing players to be more reliable in defense. The league is still quite long, and the current gap is 10 points with Inter Milan. If they want to compete, they must start to address weaknesses, as all teams have now started to focus again on their domestic leagues.

Interestingly, I do not think that the problem is with the defense. While of course every team could think "we need to be better at defense" and there is nothing wrong with wanting to be better there, I think the real problem is with the midfield.

Their midfield is not working that hard towards trying to do better on the midfield and for that reason I think we should look at their midfield and their workload, they do not run as much as they should back on defense, which leaves the defense wide open and facing the opposing offense right away.

Do you see anything in midfield? such as a lack of offensive support from the midfield to provide feedback to the attack line? or take part in defense? Which part makes you feel that Napoli's midfield is really bad? because this is important to discuss, some midfielders are really important in building attacks so let's find out and the reason why they are so weak? Or are there really no players who can do the job here?

Football is unpredictable that means that the favorite club can still lose the game which was what happened yesterday and it wasn't a big surprise to me because Milan is also a strong team sitting on the second position on the table. When it comes to these two clubs playing against each other, anything can happen.

And what happened was a loss for Inter Milan, which for some was a surprise. I hope Milan can perform well for the rest of the season to close in on Inter Milan's points tally. If they draw in other matches, this will make the Serie A season more exciting until the end. The points gap is still quite large, but another loss for Inter Milan could be a big advantage for Milan, who currently sit in second place.

Despite the loss inter Milan is still toping Italian league  table for you to know that there is a hope for Inter Milan to lift this Italian league trophy. You think AC Milan have the power to win their remaining games in this Italian games, because there are still some strong clubs that Will not allow AC Milan to continue winning their games than to stop to carry out more research to eliminat some people that who don't believe in crypto.

Congratulation to AC Milan for the victory, but it will be hard for AC Milan to lift this trophy, because many clubs will surely stop them not to achieve this champion league trophy.

Inter - Atalanta (could end in a draw or even a defeat for Inter)
Fiorentina - Inter (Inter wins)
Inter - Roma (could end in a draw or even a defeat for Inter)

Inter has
Atalanta,Fiorentina,Roma,Como,Cagliari,Torino,Parma,Lazio,Verona,Bologna
Milan has
Lazio,Torino,Napoli,Udinese,Verona,Juventus,Sassuolo,Atalanta,Genoa,Cagliari

So, we exclude the duplicates:
Fiorentina,Roma,Como,Parma,Bologna
vs
Napoli,Udinese,Juventus,Sassuolo,Genoa

Inter will be playing against the 4th,5th,8th,12th,17th
Milan will be playing against the 3rd,6th,9th,10th,13th

There is almost no real difference and if we have a tiny one based on placings, that's in Inter's favor not Milan!

[colinistheman]

I was honestly surprised by the result last night. AS Roma lost 2–1 to Genoa . I didn’t expect a defeat like this from Roma.

I thought Roma would win this match and regain the fourth place in the table. But they lost the match. It was an unexpected result.

The match was Genoa's home match. But even then we considered Roma as the favorite. Since the match was important for them. But Roma could not perform well in the match. Genoa deserved to win this match. At the same time, the road for Roma to stay in the top four of the table and qualify for the Champions League is quite difficult. Como is in better form compared to Roma and their performance is also stable.

Inter - Atalanta (could end in a draw or even a defeat for Inter)

There is almost no real difference and if we have a tiny one based on placings, that's in Inter's favor not Milan!

I have always believed that if a great team wants to win the league title, it must beat all or almost all of its opponents. Making this kind of comparison is always pointless.
Last night's defeat for Inter was a serious setback! But all is not lost. There are exactly 10 matches left to play in the championship, and Inter are 7 points ahead of Milan, which is equivalent to 2 wins and a draw. So, technically, Inter only need 8 wins in their last 10 games, but Milan need 10 wins or a lucky series of results.

[$weetne$$]

Yes, Inter is the strongest team in the Serie A championship, but yesterday they lost against Milan and so this says a lot about the consistency of the performances of these guys, clearly there are more important matches that they absolutely had to win but they didn't, this leads to discontent and poor performances.

Saying all of this about a team for a single loss does sounds like some sort of going too far already, it's just one game and that is not all the game they will be playing for the rest of the season neither was it a finals, their previous performances has been gair so we can not pass judgement because of this single game alone.

[Bobrox]

I thought Roma would win this match and regain the fourth place in the table. But they lost the match. It was an unexpected result.

The match was Genoa's home match. But even then we considered Roma as the favorite. Since the match was important for them. But Roma could not perform well in the match. Genoa deserved to win this match. At the same time, the road for Roma to stay in the top four of the table and qualify for the Champions League is quite difficult. Como is in better form compared to Roma and their performance is also stable.

Unexpected result when AS Roma defeating by Genoa, fight the top fourth standings from Como already winning this week match and Roma must get three points when facing Genoa but the result unpredictable with Roma have loss three away points. Roma's possibility qualifying to Champion League bit difficult not only fight with Como but also get pressure from the lower standings Juventus has one points remaining awhile reach the last Champion League spot standings.
Upcoming Serie A match Roma vs  Como and its the last attend for both team fight to top fourth standings, if Como get three points will make easy secure the UCL spot but if Roma success securing three points will make easily for 9 matches left to finish at top fourth standings. Which one team finish at top fourth standings this season? Roma, Como or Juventus?

[bitgolden]

I think the Bodo games were the main reason where Inter started to play badly. After they got that shocking first defeat against Bodo, they did not play well ever since, second game against them was bad too, and not doing that well in the league either.

However, lucky for them, they had a huge gap between them and the second place, which means that even with a loss like this, they are still leading the league with seven points and there is a very possible chance that they would continue to win the league.

[m4r1o]

Inter is the strongest team in Serie A this season but they lost against Milan in the last match and lost points. Inter is leading by 7 points in the points table, Milan is currently competing well to reach the top of the points table but they may not be able to make such a big difference. However, we can see that after Inter was eliminated from the Champions League, they will pay more attention to their domestic league as they have to collect trophies this season. The way Inter performed brilliantly in the Champions League last season, their performance this season was not good at all. So since Inter has been eliminated from the Champions League, they will have to focus on their domestic league and must return to form to maintain their position. Because their loss against Milan which can disappoint them even more, they will have to improve their game.

Inter is the best team of all at the moment and anyone who says otherwise doesn't understand much about football. It's a fact that this team is trying in every way to win the championship, but they don't realise that mistakes are paid for and in fact they lost the derby, making Milan fall to -7, something very difficult.
