Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Jossque]

In a match between two struggling teams, the home side, Udinese, emerged victorious. Udinese managed to win the match 2-0 thanks to goals from Zaniolo and Kristensen. Torino failed to put in a strong performance. We can definitely say that Udinese deserved the win. Udinese moved up to 47 points, while Torino remained on 41.
Como is hosting Napoli at home. We can say that Como put in a better performance in the first half. I expect Como to come away with a win here, but they haven’t managed to score a goal yet.

[Velvet78]

Como started the game very well, they did the same to Inter before, but we know what the end result was. But it doesn't look like it's going to be the case in this match, although Napoli have been in good form of late, their attack isn't as ferocious as Inter. The score is still 0-0 for both teams, Como will have to work hard because a win would bring them closer to a UCL ticket.

They have been playing way better than Napoli so far. That's clear. However there is still no goal in the game... Como just can't let this opportunity go if they want a top 4 finish.

Because I'm not expecting Juventus to drop any points against Verona home. I think Roma will beat Fiorentina as well which could even cause Como to lose their current position.

Napoli will probably be happy if they  can share the points in the match. Napoli has been  playing defensively since the beginning of the  match. Como's players have been able  to create many attacking opportunities. But they have not been able to break napoli's strong defense. If napoli had not played  defensively, then perhaps the match would have been more enjoyable. Como has managed to make a total of 16 shots in  65 minutes. On the other hand , Napoli's boys have made only  5 shots. Como  needs a win. They are also able to perform quite well. But they probably will not be able to win until the  end.

[Iamgoat]

If not for unforseen circumstances they faced, they would have top the league because they know how to maintain their stand and keep the game interesting, as they are one of the most important teams in Italian league. And yes, certainly they will recover and come back more active than the way they are now and more creative and make the game more interesting because injured don't last forever neither does bad luck last forever.

This is where football gets tough and brutal. If you like you can be the most performing and dominating team today in a particular league, once you stop performing and you can’t keep up with the momentum you have built earlier, you will be frozen like a fish. Your past glory does not help you as a player or as a team in football and this why players have to keep fit and keep pushing their strides to ensure they remain relevant in the system. Juventus started well and at some point I was thinking they could actually keep the push to the end only for them to start declining in their performance and they're not able to bounce back to the top again.

In the end, the Como vs. Napoli match ended in a scoreless draw. however, como clearly dominated the game. In fact, one could say that Como looked slightly better than Napoli. Perhaps this was because, as the home team, Como gained confidence from playing in front of their own fans. But theirr strength was still not enough to defeat Napoli.

another match, Atalantaa vs. Genoa also ended in a scoreless draw. It seems that in Week 35, there will be many draws and very few goals scored. This is because it is common in Serie A for several matches to end in the same way.

The draw was the result I was expecting in the match between Como and Napoli, and that is how the match eventually ended. However, I honestly did not expect the game to end in a goalless draw, considering they are two big teams. I was expecting both teams to play attacking football, but it ended up with both sides playing more defensively than offensively.Como made a lot of effort, but they were just not lucky enough to convert their good opportunities into goals.

As for the Atalanta match, I don’t really know what is going wrong with them because I did not expect them to draw this match, given their current situation. Their position on the table is not good, and I was expecting them to fight for a Europa League spot. However, with the way they are playing now, they might not qualify for Europe and could end up in the Conference League instead.

[MK-74]

Another dropped point for Como. They keep losing points in crucial Serie A matches.

If they had beaten Napoli today, they might be in 4th place right now, but once again they dropped points and remained in 5th place.
Even their position in 5th is now in danger after this draw.

If Roma beat Fiorentina tomorrow, they will move up to 5th place.
Roma failed to take advantage of this opportunity before, but I think they will make the most of it tomorrow.

[ITExpert]

Juventus started badly, but i wouldn't dare say that they are weak, on the contrary, they are definitely the best in this championship, if it weren't for some injuries and some badly played matches, they would certainly have done much better than this and would have finished at least second in the championship.

I think this is true that juventus is no more a weak team in fact they are trying to have their best. And their chances to finish in the top four positions are very strong. Because the team as the potential to do great they just need to focus on their goal and try to be consistent in their remaining matches. And thus is also the fact that if juventus were not faced any injuries and some other unplanned things than they may stand somewhere else as where they are right now. Because still there are some  matches left which is very important and they will  decide clearly about their position or their presence in the champions league. And I think juventus will try to have these matches by their side as this is very important for them and it can change their image because they are currently in the 4th position so there chances are more wide.

[Furious 7]

Another dropped point for Como. They keep losing points in crucial Serie A matches.

If they had beaten Napoli today, they might be in 4th place right now, but once again they dropped points and remained in 5th place.
Even their position in 5th is now in danger after this draw.

It's not an easy match as the opponent is Napoli, so I think 1 point is fair enough for them although it can't be denied that towards the end of this season Como spirits seem to have dropped a little and that can be seen from their performance in the last 5 matches (including today's match) where they were only able to get 1 win. However, with the squad they have at the moment I feel that they are still one of the clubs worth appreciating.

Indeed, in terms of performance on the pitch they are quite good even against Napoli they were able to dominate and control the ball, which I think is a good thing. However, because their mentality is a bit down at the moment, their goal productivity is not going so well.  At the moment Roma have a chance to take Como's spot, especially since their opponent is Fiorentina who are on a pretty bad run this season but sometimes Roma's performance is also a bit unpredictable even though their chances of getting 3 points are very big.

[stompix]

I just love seeing Como ending their season so ...nice  

This is the wanna be CL competitor over the last 5 games:


Now Juventus needs to beat Verona to drive another nail in the coffin, and of course, Roma beating Fiorentina and taking the 5th spot would be the cherry on top of a triple-layered chocolate cake

[Slow death]

The last 5 games have been anything but pleasant for Como fans, who saw all their hopes of qualifying for the European Champions League slipping away. Five games and only one win. They lost many important points, so if Juventus wins tomorrow, Como will hardly be able to secure 4th place. Also, if Roma wins, they will overtake Como. It was a good fight they put up this season, but unfortunately they couldn't manage their good performance well, and that cost them something very important: access to the European Champions League. My question is: will the Como coach remain in charge next season? Because these recent results are not normal.

After certain players left, Atalanta haven't been able to recover in the league. Today they drew against Genoa, That's four games in a row without a win. They no longer have a chance of qualifying for the Champions League, and probably won't qualify for the Europa League either. It's a very slim prospect for them. They will lose money by not participating in these two major competitions. I also don't know what the management will do with the current coach. Perhaps he will be fired and another coach hired next season. But the fact is that it was a disastrous season for Atalanta in Serie A.

[slapper]

We’re in for a great match in Italy today. While we can say that Inter has already clinched the title in Italy, Como will be looking for a win against Napoli today. I don’t think a Napoli victory would change much, especially since Como is the favorite in this match. We can say that Como is still in the race for the top four, and even their current fifth-place position isn’t guaranteed. They absolutely must secure a win against this strong opponent. If they drop another point, Roma will likely overtake them.

Como will need to beat Napoli for gaining three points which can help them securing their fifth position against AS Roma. It will also be important for Como to continue the fourth position competition with Roma and Juventus as Juventus have kind of easy fixtures for last four matches. There is not too big chance that Juventus will drop points in last matches so if Como lose points by themselves, it's like their surrender in the fourth position race with The Old Lady.

I guess Napoli will play this game as if they are playing final game, because they know that if Como beat them to secure victory it will make many people conclude that Como will perform well in the champion league and this is what will make Napoli players prepare to do what will make them to secure 3 points. For the first position we all know that Inter Milan will not give up on that, because the points they are using to top Napoli and other clubs show that this trophy will not pass Inter Milan in this tournament.

This 4th position will escape Como because they are playing with strong club that have potential players and if Napoli lose this game to their opponent it will make Como fans celebrate, because they will be using some points to gap other clubs that will make people to conclude that Como will end up in 3rd position in the Italian league.

Como's problem is their addiction to draws. Eleven draws this season. EAnd all those, all those, are just two points in the bin. You get one instead of three. That would be a lot. As much as pains. And the crazy part? When all is considered Como is in fact the better team than Juventus. They get more points, give up less, superior goal difference. But Juve just wins tight games and Como doesn't.

This 0-0 vs Napoli was the one they simply could not afford to draw though. They must now win all the remaining games, and hope that Juventus will randomly lose points to relegation teams. They have not defeated any of the top-3 teams. Not once. Six tries, no success. They will destroy a mid-table team 5-0 at home. And then freeze against the big boys.

You see, 3rd place is certainly not occurring btw, Milan and Napoli are too far ahead of that. But 5th? In their second season back? With the way Fabregas has them playing? Still remarkable. All he needs is a summer window and perhaps an experienced clinical striker that can convert three of those draws into wins.

They dominated Napoli and the only thing missing was goal!

Although the game ended up as a draw but they had more ball possession than Napoli but their gameplay was defense. I already knew Napoli might have a hard time winning como, this season has not really been favorable for them.

It's a shame that Como could only hold Napoli to a draw in this match, and that's clearly not a good result. The current gap between Como and Roma is only one point. If Roma were to win their next match,, Como would certainly drop further in the Serie A standings. That's why Como is currently in a very disadvantageous situation, as they are essentially threatened with not being able to play in the Europa League. That's why I hope Como can sweep every remaining match so they can stay in their current position,, and if they don't, they won't have a huge points gap with Roma.

This is a less than pleasant end to the season for Como,, as they were consistently winning every match from the beginning to the middle of the season. But right now, Como is struggling a bit, and that's really preventing them from securing a ticket to play in European competition. But the season isn't over yet,, and anything can happen, so we'll just have to wait and see what the final result will be.

Shame by holding Napoli with a draw, really?

Napoli is the champion as they are holding Scudetto even they can not defend it in this season, they are still a strong team in Serie A. Como by holding Napoli with a draw and getting one point, actually shown their competitiveness. However, with their competition with Juventus and AS Roma for a fourth position, this draw is not enough, and not helpful for Como.

They will not be able to take over a fourth position from Juventus after this week and if Roma win, Como will lose the fifth position too but generally Como have performed very impressively in this season and they can be proud of that.

I don't bad result for Como success holding draw Napoli as the team with higher standings position than Como and the defending champion last season, but getting one points not really safe for Como if want to fight for Champion League spot or defending the Europe League spot position. Como has chance dropping out side from the Europe League standings if Roma can secure three points against Fiorentina and Como will loss many points from Juventus if get three points today against Hellas Verona.

Don't forget, today Inter Milan has chance for locking the Scudetto this season if get one or three point against Parma today and Inter Milan will make Serie A tittle race over after Napoli loss three points last night holding draw by Como.

I must say that Como's performance this season has been very impressive this season, the como of previous seasons would not been able to make it this far. Although the game ended up as a draw but they had more ball possession than Napoli but their gameplay was defense. I already knew Napoli might have a hard time winning como, this season has not really been favorable for them.

No one doubted Como's abilities this season as they have indeed performed quite convincingly. However, in some matches, Como's performance has begun to decline, although they have won their last two matches and drawn against Napoli. Como's performance against Napoli was much more convincing, dominating the match despite failing to capitalize on several scoring opportunities. Como's position is still likely to be replaced by Roma after they beat Fiorentina

[Fakhrulenclix]

Como is hosting Napoli at home. We can say that Como put in a better performance in the first half. I expect Como to come away with a win here, but they haven’t managed to score a goal yet.

Napoli will probably be happy if they  can share the points in the match. Napoli has been  playing defensively since the beginning of the  match. Como's players have been able  to create many attacking opportunities. But they have not been able to break napoli's strong defense. If napoli had not played  defensively, then perhaps the match would have been more enjoyable. Como has managed to make a total of 16 shots in  65 minutes. On the other hand , Napoli's boys have made only  5 shots. Como  needs a win. They are also able to perform quite well. But they probably will not be able to win until the  end.

A draw should have been fair enough for both teams, but this result is very detrimental for Como because now they are increasingly falling behind Juventus, who are in 4th place, and there is even a possibility that Como's 5th position could be taken over by Romo. For Napoli, on the other hand, this draw has no impact at all because they are already comfortable enough to finish in the top 4.
Seeing the competition at the top with several teams fiercely competing for a spot to play in next season's Champions League is really intense this season, and that is what makes Serie A increasingly interesting to follow, even though there is no competition for the title.

Cesc fabrigas como team was just unlucky against Napoli because it's a game they should have won on another day, if they were a bit lucky, because they dominated Napoli in ball possession and also have five shots on target, while Napoli only registered only one. And if you look at other statistics of the game, you will agree with me that Napoli escape with a draw because this is a game they should have lost if they weren't lucky, so as it stands now, the league title is inter milan title to lose because if they can win their own game, they will top Napoli with 12 points which just three games to go, which will confirm them as the champions of the Italian seria A this season. So a big congratulations to inter milan because a draw will be enough to clinch the title.

No one expected Como to perform this manner, I believe it was totally unexpected from the Como team, and I would really like to see them playing in the Champions League, after showing a good performance all through the season, Como are a team that came back to the Seria A just of recent and they’re making a good performance now, what they should be targeting right now is qualifying for the Champions League next season and that would be an extra bonus and a huge achievement to them.
