⚽ Lega Serie A 🇮🇹 (Italian League) Prediction Thread 2024/2025⚽

[Distraction]

In my opinion, Napoli wins the rubbish award this season, from rags to riches
They won last year and this year truly a scandalous performance
I am absolutely speechless, I didn`t think they would do so badly this year, in fact the fans are angry lol

Napoli have definitely been rubbish this season, I'll give you that mate. Spalletti left and the team went down very sharply like the stock market.    I wouldn't expect them to change this much anyway. They are even struggling to enter top 7 to get a chance for a European competition at least. What a pity!

5 teams are going to the Champions League from the Serie A this year. Because the extra quota has been given to Serie A teams.



Despite this huge chance Napoli still can't qualify for the Champions League, I don't know what to say...

[tusandii]

It can't be that simple in my opinion, although indeed this season is very disappointing and last season Napoli was very stunning it is indeed very difficult to express, but yes how else can Napoli not maintain and get players that make it difficult for them to maintain their position at the top of the standings, it can be considered that last season they were very lucky where the state of other big teams regressed.

what you say is not entirely wrong, in fact the players are more or less the same, the team is more or less the same
luck was certainly a determining factor, always
this season what weighed heavily was total self-distrust and not believing in oneself.
this certainly had an influence and exceptional players like Osimhen were not able to shine as much as they could have

yes we see that Napoli is like helpless this season, 90% of the brand has the same players as last year, it's silly to blame players leaving or whatever, Napoli can't compete this season, I don't know why, I don't know the problem because the decline is very significant, Yes you are right Osimhen who was in the race last season became worthless because the team's performance decreased and made him also not much well developed, whereas if he took the opportunity to get a better team maybe he would get more beautiful sunshine, but maybe because of the confidence that Napoli also entered the champions league to change his fate more seems not as expected.

As last season's champion, I was actually quite sorry to see Napoli's decline which was quite drastic. I also didn't expect Napoli to experience such a sharp decline even though the players that Napoli had were still the same. There were only a few players that Napoli sold last season, but Napoli also didn't remain silent. He also added new players to balance the ecosystem, but it seems that the differences make the chemistry of the players different, plus Napoli had to lose their best coach who led Napoli to win the Scudetto last season.

Spalleti's decision to leave the club was quite surprising to everyone even though he had achieved success with Napoli but instead left the club when he was at the top and currently Napoli is experiencing bad luck in Serie A and it looks like next season Napoli will not take part in international competitions at UEFA because Napoli has enough lagging behind the better clubs above it.

Napoli had a terrible season because they lost whatever that made them a great team last season and this caused them to be in a big big trouble. Even with manager change they did not recover and they must be regretting their decision to let go Spaletti last season. I don't get it, how much money could he have asked that they couldn't pay him? Was it like 10 million euro or something? Because whatever it was, I am sure that it must be something normal and not really end up being worth enough to be this bad. If they kept him, I am sure that they will end up being better and not have this situation.

All in all, I am sure that they are going to end up with a trouble next season as well, they do not have any sign of getting better, surely they will get a new manager, but that probably won't be enough.

and the horrible season is not over yet, I learned from some Napoli fan newspapers that Victor is angry, he wants to win something and will definitely leave for Spain, they say Barcelona (I would have expected Real Madrid who can pay more money)

so a season totally gone

The truth is that I can't find a logical explanation for what happened with Napoli, from one moment to the next they lost and things seemed very different now, even Osimhen himself seems as if the level had dropped, it is something that seems to be very confusing, then in this order of ideas Things can be very different when we focus on this team, they came out champions of Serie A a season ago but in this season they lost their way and that is something that should not be done, it is not even It should be allowed, personally I have always said something, if we need things to be done well they have to maintain the level but Napoli I don't know what Happened, they did absolutely nothing in any competition, it is really disappointing.

Yes, surely everyone will feel that there is an anomaly in Napoli, they look like a lion into a deer, from super power to helpless, several times I think critically and understand the situation faced by Napoli looks fine in terms of management and players, but why does it seem that life to be able to repeat achievements is no longer the same, I think it cannot be explained easily enough about Napoli we have to really seriously examine it.

Napoli are aware that they may have to find themselves a replacement for star striker Victor Osimhen this summer, the Nigerian having announced that he already knows where he wants to play next season. One of the options could be in La Liga, as Girona’s Artem Dovbyk continues to lead the top scorer race.

Few were sure what to expect of Dovbyk when he arrived last summer for a fee of €7.75m from Dnipro, but the 26-year-old has 18 goals this season, despite not starting a game until matchday five, and missing two games through injury. Physical, with good movement and good finishing, Dovbyk has proven the perfect amount of direct for Girona’s technical approach.

Napoli should have had a lot of new players at the beginning of last season to repair this season, but unfortunately they did not want to spend a lot of money to buy players and were too confident that they would repeat the same thing when it was a disaster for them, Now maybe Osimhen will leave and they have to find a replacement for the season.

In my opinion it is easier for him to go to Barcelona than Real Madrid, because Real Madrid is now ready to take Mbappe and consequently Osimhen is unlikely to have space in a team with so many strong forwards. Barcelona I think could guarantee him more minutes on the pitch even if there is a strong starter like Lewandowski. I hope for Victor that he leaves Napoli because they have not been so lenient with him lately.

What a clutch goal from Roma right ? Last minute of the game scoring a mega important goal that keeps that in that UCL race and on the same time we can fairly say that Napoli no longer have chances for European spots and it's a shame to see this team going from last year champions to barely being able to win games but also they barely scored this year.

Stefano Pioli was so confident in bringing AC Milan to great achievements this season but in reality they failed, Inter Milan is not team they can beat easily and derbies between the two always make AC Milan really stressed.
There were previously rumors that AC Milan failure this season would mean that Stefano Pioli had to end his performance as coach or it could be said that there was an option of dismissal and replacement of new coach.
But basically this failure is not too bad and AC Milan can still be runners-up, there is also decision that has been made that Stefano Pioli has the opportunity in the next season to prove that he is worth keeping.
It just that I think AC Milan performance this season is actually quite good because they have had better development than last season.

Tomorrow AC Milan will play against Juventus and this might be quite an interesting match, both have strong performances even though Juventus is not very stable.
Juventus has the advantage with the home game and they are the favorites, but I doubt Juventus will win.

To say that Pioli career is over I would say no, it cannot be true also because Milan are in second place, but I am sure that next season he will not be Milan manager, given that they expected a lot and spent a lot of money on a quality team and failed to make it go as well as it should have

I dont judge him badly, but he is not a suitable coach for Milan in my opinion.
And for the game versus Juventus of course i hope win my beloved team: Juventus

This is not about career but more likely his future as AC Milan coach, from various reports and rumors circulating, it is stated that Stefano Pioli has the potential to be fired if this season AC Milan does not achieve the achievement of winning the title.
But now there are several statements which conclude that AC Milan management will give Stefano Pioli an opportunity to show that he is worth keeping, he has the opportunity for one more season with AC Milan.
If there are no changes, Stefano Pioli will still be coach next season, but if there is change in decision, perhaps at the end of the season AC Milan will terminate Stefano Pioli contract as coach.
But I don't know whether this is the right decision or not because this season there are quite lot of team trying to get great coach and AC Milan will compete to find coach if they actually fire Stefano Pioli at the end of the season.

Juventus had home advantage but they failed to make good use of it, the result between Juventus vs AC Milan was 0 - 0 draw and with this draw they were unable to get the full points.
By failing to win in the home match, Juventus has the opportunity to be overtaken by Bologna because their difference is now only 2 points.

I'm having the same thought as you because it's so surprising to see that Napoli's performance this season has declined tremendously, they currently occupying 9th position on the league table with 50 points, that's a bad result for the defending champions, going by the days reality, it's obvious they won't be qualifying for champions League next season. I watched their game against AS ROMA, it was more of a clash of equals as both teams where on each others neck. Victor osimhen hasn't been banging those goals just the way he was doing last season and it speaks volume to the fact that the entire team performance is on the average level, given their stance last season.

Yeah and Tammy Abraham scored that goal. There hasn't been much time since he returned from a serious injury but he saved his team an important point. 

Now the Serie A has one more team to send to the Champions League so Roma had better not waste this huge opportunity. They are still under danger. Atalanta are 2 points behind with an absent game to play also. It looks like the Atalanta - Roma game on on May 12th will be the decider for 5th finishing team. It is really critical for De Rossi. If he carries Roma to the Champions League I think the board might want to sign a new contract with him.

Four teams will go to the champions league next season which are Inter Milan, Juventus and Bologna. This makes it impossible for Roma to be part of the Champions league next season. Roma will play in Europa fain next season, I just hope that they don't allow Atalanta to come from behind and take over the 4th position from them. I hope they will do better next season.

I think Inter Milan and Ac Milan have qualified but the third and fourth place finish are still open. Football is full of surprises, one of this teams can slipoff and another will take it place. Juventus has a better chance of making a top 4 finish but I'm not sure about Bologna. The difference between them and Roma is 3 point, there's 4 matches remaining and anything can happen. Also, Atlanta is 2 points apiece from Roma and 5 points from Bologna with 5 games remaining.

Italy will have five teams in the Champions League next year and currently the qualified teams are Inter, Milan, Juventus, Bologna and Roma. There could even be six teams qualified if one of Roma or Atalanta wins the Europa League and finishes sixth or lower in the standings, but this is a rather difficult eventuality. All that remains is to hope that one of the two wins the Europa League. Still in the European sphere, Italy will then have two places in the Europa League and one in the conference league.

Honestly, I wouldn`t have bet on Juventus qualifying, they managed to put a stop to the wild descent they were tasked with, good for them
Bologna and Roma really deserved to go there, they fought so hard until the end
I am satisfied about this 4 teams, but i think they are not strong for Champions League

I am very happy, we achieved our goal of the season: going to the beloved Champions League
the rest is clear, it could have gone better, but it could have gone even worse... at least next year I will be able to see my beloved team in the Champions League and not just watch the others play (an infinite sadness)

Lets try a little bet this week, come on, there are three games that are super easy in my opinion

• Sassuolo - Inter Milan i will bet on Inter Milan
• AC Milan - Genoa i will bet on AC Milan
• Salernitana - Atalanta BC i will bet on Atalanta BC

what do you think? Inter, Milan and Atalanta (versus Salernitana)

I think i can win.

At a first look it seems an easy win but if you watch the leaderboard I think it need to be taken into proper consideration Milan is matematically qualified for the Champions league and Genoa is still fighting tosay in serie A, even if they are in a good spot after the recent win on Cagliari ( I see a draw here), also Sassuolo is in a very bad spot and Inter is is fresh from the celebrations for the scudetto.
So I wish you win your bet but it's not that easy imo.

Nice choices mate, I think you couldn't have picked a better match for this weekend, although for once I doubt that Inter can win this match. Simply because by now the players are with their heads on holiday and instead Sassuolo is in the middle of the fight not to relegate to Serie B, so Sassuolo is the only team that has something to lose in this match, and I think they will give everything to win this match. For the rest of the matches I think just like you and I think I will copy your bets

Serie A week 34 has finished and in week 35 I think there will be surprise where there will be shift in standings, Bologna will play Torino and this is good opportunity for Bologna to be able to save full points and shift Juventus who are in third place.
Juventus itself will face Roma, which is clearly quite strong team this season, if Juventus fails to win the match, Bologna has big chance of replacing Juventus in the top 3.
But somehow what is clear is that this is a good opportunity for Bologna and also worrying condition for Juventus because they have to beat Roma to maintain their position.

Everything can be seen with greater certainty regarding positioning because there are only 4 matches remaining and those who will be in the UCL or Europa League next season can also be predicted more accurately.

Right observation, Bologna once again has a chance to overtake Juventus in the standings and move into third place, but the serious thing is that by doing so Juventus would also jeopardise fourth place, because if they lose against Roma and Bologna wins against Torino we could have this ranking

Bologna 66
Juventus 65
Roma 62

With still 3 matches to play, Juventus could put at serious risk even the fourth place
