Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[GiftedMAN]

I have to say that this championship is not exciting me much, maybe because Roma is not doing very well, but there is the possibility for Milan to reach the first position, even if it is very difficult nothing is impossible, they must always believe, now there is nothing to watch, the fight is very close and i think that the championship, barring unforeseen events, is already outlined!

If so, that means you should be a Roma fan to be worried about their performance, too bad Roma has given up their position to Como and could still drop if they don't improve. It's true that nothing is impossible but you should consider how consistent Inter was before losing to Milan and I don't think that lose would make them weak, they'll even be more careful so Milan doesn't close the gap more.

This result is actually not surprising at all when we look at the head-to-head record between these two city rivals. in their last five meetings, AC Milan has almost always been the winner. There have only been a few draws and victories for AC Milan. Inter Milan, no matter how well they performed that season, always ended up losing more often than not to AC milan when the two teams met. Even though, as far as I recall, AC Milan was in pretty bad shape last season, they still managed to beat Inter Milan back then. and now it has happened again.

exactly, it didn't surprise me either if we look at Milan in general, apart from a few defensive errors, they are a team that wins many times and is no coincidence that they are at that level in the league, they are second with only 7 points of difference which isn't even a lot, so i have to say that Milan is not exactly a bad team.

Roma's performance is not consistent. So it is going  to be difficult for them to regain the fourth place in the table. As the team's improvement is enviable. None of us thought that this team would perform  so well at the beginning of the season. And  the team is now fighting  hard to qualify for the champions league. Roma and juventus are still in the fight for the  fourth place in the table. And among these three teams, the team that remains stable in its performance will occupy the fourth place. I am not at all satisfied with roma's recent  performance. Especially their attacking performance is quite  inconsistent.

[pippoinzaghi]

- Como, Roma and Juventus are trying to secure themselves the last place in top 4.

Honestly, I'm very disappointed with my team, they're not playing well and they let Como overtake them, really disappointing. They've been playing like crap for years now and they haven't found a decent coach.

I'm really tempted to unfollow and spend more money on it.

Inter needs a little time to recover from the Champions League exit and maybe from the loss to AC Milan, but I don’t think they are too worried about it, because they clearly played no worse than Milan. It was just a match where a single goal decided everything, which seems more like the handwriting of Allergy. The advantage that Inter has over Milan is very big, and I think it will be more than enough for them to reach a Scudetto this season.

Inter have a significant points advantage. Even if Milan win their match against each other, they will likely finish second towards the end of the league. Nevertheless, their performance this year has been excellent, and with a few good signings next year, they can achieve success in both the Champions League and the Italian league. This would certainly not be a coincidence or luck.

I think so too, especially after they were eliminated from the Champions League competition. Of course, Inter Milan's focus now is to win the Serie A title, and I am confident they can do it because the point gap now is quite large, making Inter Milan quite comfortable at the top of the standings. As for their loss to AC Milan in the derby match, I don't think it will have any impact.

I've said before that the defeat doesn't affect Inter Milan, who still sit comfortably at the top of the standings. Milan strength is indeed superior to Inter, but unfortunately, Milan can't be like Inter Milan when facing any opponent. Inter has suffered more defeats than Milan, but why do Inter have more points than Milan? That because Milan has drawn more matches, and so far there have been 9 draws compared to Inter's only 1, so Inter is actually stronger when facing matches outside the derby.

Inter are very good at influencing the outcome. Milan, on the other hand, have lost points due to unnecessary draws. They have fewer defeats than Inter but are currently in second place. Milan and Inter also competed in the derby, and Milan won. Inter have competed well this year and will probably win the Scudetto.

[Emitdama]

The defeat to Bodo wasn't the only factor that caused Inter decline. Even without the defeat to Bodo, Inter would have failed in the Champions League. Overall Inter performance has been in shambles, both at the back and ineffective at attacking under a coach whose abilities are unpromising. They may be leading in Serie A, but will they really be able to maintain that momentum until the end of the season? I'm quite skeptical.

Finally someone is saying the quite part loud. Everyone kept saying how great Bodo did and how they played so well that they managed to beat Inter and all of that kind of things. However, the reality is that it wasn't the great play of Bodo that made that series, while I think they were pretty great, Inter at 100% would have won that series with ease. The problem was that Inter couldn't play decently, and it is not about Bodo making them play bad, as we can see other teams made Inter play badly too. Inter is having a problem, and if it is a short term one then they will be fine.

Milan is one team i know that has a very tough and sound wining mentality, one reason i think they are at the second position should be that they did not start early to push for the title race and that is why they are at the second position with that number of points difference, so i did not expect any less of them even as Inter is not a small side either, it was a clash of two major teams, so you can expect that anything can happen.

Napoli are like in the middle of 2 races now:

- Inter and Milan are fighting each other for the Serie A trophy.

- Como, Roma and Juventus are trying to secure themselves the last place in top 4.

Napoli are like they are neither in the title race nor in a risky position to stay out of top 4 now...    They are just hoping to keep this going to secure their current position for a CL spot.

This time Conte couldn't be competitive for the title. It's no surprise though. Even last season I was surprised how Inter couldn't make it...

Napoli's position really does look frozen - they can't move up, but their advantage over their competitors below them is great. But there are still 10 games to play and 30 points at stake, so a 5-point lead might not be enough if they drop points here and there. If Napoli lose their place in the top 4, then maybe Conte will also lose his place because this season has been a failure - one elimination in the group stage of the Champions League is an unforgivable failure.

[bastisisca]

This win somehow rescued AC Milan's chance for competing Scudetto with Inter Milan but with 7 points less, they will have to try so much and also need Inter Milan losing points too. They already did a great job in this big direct match but in remaining matches, they must hope that other clubs in Serie A will get points from Inter Milan.

Milan wants, or rather, can want, whatever it wants. Inter is currently in first place, so they'll have to put a brave face on things.
If they try hard and we make mistakes, maybe they can get closer, but honestly i think it will be difficult given their performance.

[IceLincoln]

In the Italian league, Milan are seven points behind league leaders Inter despite having only suffered two defeats. Inter are seven points ahead with five losses. This is actually something to learn from. Winning is just as important as not losing. Despite only two defeats, Milan are seven points behind. They also secured a great victory against Inter, handing them their fifth defeat. They are very good at not losing this year. However, they are ineffective in front of goal.

They might have only lost twice compared to Inter's 6 loses, but check the number of draws Milan has you'll understand while they're behind inter despite having few loses than them, if Milan had won most of those matches the drew, about 4 or 5 of them they would've been ahead by now.
 Anyways they created a record this season, this is the first time of having consecutive wins against Inter in a season. The record would've been more special if Milan was leading however Inter is 7 points aways so it doesn't really matter.

This just goes to prove the power of winning your matches, the title of unbeaten is nothing if you’re not winning your games, that three points is very important and is so much better than sharing one point. Some teams have lost league titles just because they couldn’t win their games…, example is Arsenal and Barça under Ronald Koeman.
It’s better to play the rubbish and win the match than play fine football and lose or draw the match. A draw is better than a lose but in the long run so many draws will only get you thus far.

Como is doing fine without a doubt, but I still think a top four finish would be interesting to see, I still think Roma has a lot more chance to do that. The fact that Como is not sixth anymore, and Juventus did worse, is a shame and hoped to see Juventus be fourth let alone fifth but they are now sixth1 That is not only thanks to Como playing good, it's also about Juventus having a horrible few game streak for a month.

In the end, Como could fight for a top four finish, but the way they are going, even money will not save them and they will lose many of their players at the summer time. These players are not the type of players who will stay here for a career, they will leave as soon as they get better offers from other bigger clubs.

It would be very interesting, both from a standings perspective next season and to see Como's internal dynamics. A similar team: Atalanta, they reached the Champions League but didn't manage to achieve much, so it would be interesting to see if Como can do the same.

I am surprised that Napoli have won a lot of matches recently and they are still stop and they still have 56 points and 11 points above them, which has made the competition difficult for Napoli. If they win all their matches, they can put pressure on the teams above, which can make Napoli successful. Inter and Milan's performance is also quite strong, due to which it is difficult for Napoli to succeed this time too. If Napoli takes the risk and wins all the matches and gets these 30 points, I hope that in the end Inter and Milan can fail. This is difficult because Como and Roma still need 6 points, only then will they be able to lower Napoli and if Napoli keeps winning their matches, it will go up. Napoli's strong performance will give us a lot of interest, but now it depends on them whether they succeed or not.

Inter milan's performances have been a bit  erratic, that's right. But even then they have no chance of losing the serie a title. Because no serie  a club can challenge Inter milan. Every team's performance is erratic. As a result , even if Inter Milan does not perform well, even if they lose points in a few matches, they have more chances to  win the title. Inter milan lost last match against AC Milan. Even then, Inter milan is ahead of Ac milan by a big margin of 7 points. AC milan is also not able to perform well consistently

yeah, it's true they have been inconsistent, but Milan has also not been consistent and that's why they found themselves there. If they had been more consistent they would be first now, so we shouldn't say that only Inter are weak and have thrown away important matches, but Milan are also perfectly balanced.

[bastisisca]

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.

It's not luck to have a big gap with Milan, it's skill
We have been consistent in our results so obviously we are better off now
We haven't worked for one season and now it's luck, no i am sorry, this is working well and strategically and Inter did it

[AYOBA]

Inter has been losing in a derby game against Milan for the past three seasons, they have not win any derby in their last six meetings and that shows that they are scared of Ac Milan whenever they face them, another reason Inter lost the game is because of injury, Lautaro Martinez is the team best player and ever since he got injured the team performance has dropped.

With how Inter performance has been going this day if they didn’t be careful Milan will soon take veto the top of the standings from them. Imagine the match that they’ve been losing so far that will even boosting their points, but they all wasted the chances as it stands now thy only ahead of the Milan with 7 points and if Milan can able to win their upcoming they will close gap with them.

I don’t think the injury is the only problem of their problem they also lack of inconsistency that’s why they lose most of previous matches.

How has their performance been going please? Before they lost to Milan, Inter has been more consistent and has won 5 league matches, so are you trying to say that they'll lose more matches because they lost to Milan? Football doesn't work like that bro, yes they'll have to be careful  but don't judge their future performances based on one recent lose whereas they've been very consistent before now, even more consistent than the club they lost to. Why do you think they're ahead with 7 points, check the table and see what I'm talking about.

Unlike few the other leagues like Ligue 1 and Bundesliga, Serie A is different and there is no top team but many good teams that are popping up and hiding from a season to another.
Inter Milan particularly maintained a good form in these years and are supposed to perform well in UEFA Champions League too but they failed to do so. At least they are trying to keep a distance from their followers and should win the scudetto.
