Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[GiftedMAN]

Lazio kept their defense very strong. I was very surprised by Lazio's performance. Because this match was at Lazio's home ground, but still Lazio did not attack much and did not try to score much. Lazio took only 4 shots in the whole match. Lazio is not a bad team at all. If we compare it with Milan, we will see two similar teams. However, Lazio has been performing very poorly this season. This match was a big opportunity for Milan to fight for the trophy. There is now a big point gap with Inter Milan. Let's see how they can perform in the upcoming matches.

That's the best way to win a match when you're the underdog, score first and make your defence stronger to frustrate the opponents. It really frustrated Milan cause they tried as much as possible but Lazio's defence was just too strong to be penetrated. All Milan's effort to win and try to close the gap with Inter Milan was in vein. It's a pity cause every point they drop takes Inter closer to win the trophy and it seems they'll win it this season.

When Inter played draw against Atalanta, I was thinking it's another good opportunity for Milan to close the points gap neither, did I know that Inter wouldn't even get a point. Lazio parked the bus immediately, they got the only goal in the game and that made it very difficult to Milan to get an equalizer or will I say that Milan was unlucky in the first place.

Even though I made a profit from this match, I’m still a bit disappointed with Milan’s loss.

Are you disappointed because AC Milan lost to Lazio or you are disappointed because AC Milan couldn't score a goal for your bet ticket to play?

As I said, I’m disappointed to see Milan lose. It’s not about my betting slip though, because I used single bets. So if the BTTS option loses, it’s not really a problem since I still have two other single bet slips that won.

Well I wasn't surprised that AC Milan lost to Lazio despite having several opportunities to level up against them and win the match because if AC Milan could struggle to win Lecce, what do you expect from them against a team like Lazio?

Of course I was hoping Milan could get a winning score. For me it made sense to expect them to do their best, especially considering their performance when they managed to beat Inter, the strongest team sitting at the top of the Serie A table. On the other hand, from the H2H record, the two teams previously ended in a 2–2 draw when Lazio were the hosts. So maybe I just expected too much, but Milan couldn’t perform the same way they did when they beat Inter.

Truly outstanding performances we?ve seen from this side since the Cesc Fabregas takeover in the club, they?ve competed for every title available to them even if they don?t eventually win it they?ve made an indelible mark on the competitions, I would personally love to see them lift Coppa Italia.
The race for the top fourth position is now on between them Juventus and as Roma, I think they will eventually own that spot with the way they?re going.

He is very good, i say Cesc Fabregas, we are lucky to have him in the Italian championship, it is always good to have champions in your championship both on and off the pitch.
In fact, Como is really putting on a show and i think they fully deserve to go to the Champions League next year.

The weird thing is that we are not going to actually see this be the thing that we are looking for at all. I get that it is not going to be easy but it is going to happen for Roma to stay. It doesn't get any more interesting than this competition for the fourth place, but the reality is that Roma is the closest one to me, it can still happen and the possibility is there and I do not get why people think it will not happen.

I think it's very simple to see this and we could definitely end up with results that will be very possible for these teams to end up with good returns on the long run.

However, Roma isn't trying hard enough, they lost to Como, so going to the Champions League in my opinion sucks.
Now i don't want to blame anyone, but it's known that Gasperini asked for players, who haven't arrived, so i don't understand what Roma's game is playing.

Milan missed the opportunity to reduce the gap with Inter to 5 points with a 1-0 defeat against Lazio. Especially in the first half, Lazio created dangerous opportunities by playing long passes behind the Milan defense. Isaksen scored from one of these, putting Lazio 1-0 ahead. Before the match started, I thought Milan would win, but there was no Milan team on the field that deserved to win. Even if Inter have a poor season, they look set to finish Serie A as champions.

This is what sometimes makes me not understand Milan actual performance, this club actually has a stronger performance than Inter, but Milan game is inconsistent, sometimes good and sometimes bad, even though previously Milan had just beaten Inter but was unable to face Lazio even though this should have been an opportunity for Milan to get closer to its position in the standings with Inter, if it's like this, it's quite clear that no team is able to stop Inter this season from winning the scudetto.

In the second half, Milan played with much more commitment. They had plenty of attempts to change the course of the game, but Lazio defended too well, and the Roman side?s goalkeeper was flawless. Unfortunately, Milan's lack of focus and reliability in the first half ultimately decided the outcome of the match.
By beating Inter, Milan gave their fans hope for the title, but they failed to capitalize on Inter?s mistake. Having lost to Lazio, they have now arguably buried their chances of winning the championship.

in my opinion Milan didn't put in the necessary effort and Leao I don't think he's the professional that Milan needs at the moment, in fact I really don't think it's necessary for there to be players like that, something should change, but I think Allegri already knows what needs to be changed and what doesn't

Yesterday’s defeat against Lazio was a terrible result for Milan.
They were about to rejoin the title race and reduce the points gap with Inter Milan to five, but they lost.
In my opinion, the championship now seems very far for them.

To calculate Milan has 8 points gap to Inter. It means they need some short of miracle to see Inter drop three points from three games. It's possible to happen with 9 games remaining to play. However, like i said, they have to hope all of remaining opponent in inter's fixtures to perform like a prime team.

So, miracle is the only their hope. They have also to fully farm points from the remaining games. I don't say it's impossible, but it's less than a percent to happen. Apart from that i don't think they can also sustain and get full points in the remaining game. At this point, inter has greater chance to lift trophy instead of bottle it.

Even the odds is also reflecting how big the pessimistic for them to lift the trophy compared to Inter.

Milan is unable to finish well, these attitudes really make you think that, as you say, Milan don't want to win the title, and face many challenges superficially, this is a predominant factor for this team, they don't put their heart into it and always play very superficially.
