⚽ Lega Serie A 🇮🇹 (Italian League) Prediction Thread 2023/2024⚽

[Distraction]

Stability in a club that has financial trouble is the hardest thing to do. In most nations not just in Italy, if you are a club with no big income or rich owners or anything like that financially, then in any given season when you play well enough, whichever player you had that played well could be bought for a lot of money.

You can't just magically go spend 10% of that money to buy the next star of your team, sometimes you sell a star, and you try to replace that star with other players for many years, spend even more than what you sold him for, and fail to replace that player. Even huge clubs like Barcelona had that issue, sold Neymar, spent more than 200+ to replace him, and failed. This is why stability in a teams roster is not something most teams could financially afford.

It is a really difficult task to fill the place of a star player with a similar one. I agree with that. You can be a rich team but you still need to make a huge effort in this kind of situations. In the same way, PSG have parted ways with Messi and Neymar. Now I can't say their attacking line is more capable than before. Being rich doesn't guarantee anything.


I would like to mention another topic when it comes to finances. Officials aren't acting the same against every team about punishments.

For example I wonder how many times teams like Manchester City, PSG needed to get punishments due to exceeding FFP limits. They are overlooked but it isn't like that when it comes to small teams.

I will try one of the last bet of year.

• Frosinone - Inter Milan i will bet on Inter Milan
• AC Milan - Cagliari i will bet on AC Milan
• Juventus - Salernitana i will bet on Juventus

Of course is easy game, Inter, Milan, Juventus
i think is easy, because big team vs small team (Salernitana is in serie B)

very similar to my bet but reduced I must say

you aimed for the strongest teams thinking you were safe but I want to give you some bad news, in the case of Inter Milan for example, they are doing experiments and it could easily end like with Sassuolo, so be careful!

[giammangiato]

The thing is that Osimhen must leave, if he stays there he will burn out as a player, he has some offers from MU and also from PSG, if Osimhen wants to play and be successful he should go to PSG to replace Mbappé, because in PSG in the hands of a Luis Enrique is much better than going to a failed MU where there is a Ten Hag that has had problems with all the players, and it would not be good for him to go from a team that is bad to another that is worse, so the idea is that he seeks personal growth and that they can do things better, not for a team where they are going to suffer much more, they have to go to a team where the doors are opened more for them.

Yes, true, PSG would certainly be better or even Real Madrid who in my opinion made some under-the-table offers in hidden mode
Wherever he goes he rightly wants to play in cups and be seen at international level and he deserves it as he is a very generous player!
I love him and i am sad he leave italy, but this is .. Napoli is very shit at the moment.

The current odds for your choices:

• Inter win: 1.58
• Milan win: 1.41
• Juventus win: 1.14

The total odds are around 2.54 now. It is a quite big risk to bet on all of their wins imho. Especially while Milan and Juventus are on a really poor run in the Serie A for many weeks.  

However it is your choice of course, good luck with your bet.    I think Inter and Milan will win. However I can't trust Juventus anymore to be honest. They have just let go of the league for a long time.

It is true that there is no competition as exciting as the English League because it has become one of the most popular and is truly favorite league for everyone from various countries, but this is not about popularity.
What concerns me is that there is really real competition or it could be said that all team have the opportunity to become champions every season, they always take turns and there is no dominance of particular team.
Look at several other competitions which always have at least 2 or 3 team that always dominate the competition for the title, especially like Ligue 1 which is always dominated by PSG without much opportunity for other teams to win the title.

Now it has reached the end of the season, in several leagues it has been decided who will win the championship title and there are also those that cannot yet be determined because there is still competition in the race for points, for Serie A itself we can see that Inter is the champion.
This is what is interesting because there is always team that becomes or Scudetto and the characteristic of Serie A is the Scudetto which other leagues cannot have.

The English League can be regarded as the most popular and intriguing league, the favorite of many individuals across the globe. The level of competition in this league is quite fascinating because all teams have a chance to emerge as a champion every season, unlike other competitions the likes of Ligue 1 where a  particular set of team constantly dominates the competition.

 Now that we are closer to the end of the season, champions have been decided in several leagues. Take for example, in Serie A which has Scudetto that differentiates it from other competitions, Inter has been considered the champion for this season's game which happened faster but in the EPL it's a different scenario.

 The Bundesliga and Serie A league have produced their champions and then for the La Liga, there's even 90% probability to crown Real Madrid champions. Just a lot of reasons and evidences why EPL gives players different experience to how tough the game of football can be. I'll say again that if a player wishes to do well, then he should try succeeding in the EPL first. It more like gives first hand experience to competition and strength battle too.

Osimhen could be a good striker there is no doubt about that but saying that he would have been worth 150 million is just bonkers, he never worth 150 million and if Napoli sold him for that much then he would have scammed some other team for sure lol, if there was an offer for 150 million and they rejected then Napoli is basically an idiot, they need a better owner or management because that dude worths maximum of 80 million if you ask me. Not that it didn't happen before, Nunez was like 100 million, that dude would have been 30-40 million at most as well.

Sometimes teams overpay, we will see this summer where Osimhen goes and for how much money but I am pretty sure that he is not as good as the money Napoli asks suggests, that is not going to be the case for a long time for sure.

[bastisisca]

I love him and i am sad he leave italy, but this is .. Napoli is very shit at the moment.

You say? In my opinion the fight to get him is concentrated between one of the English teams that starts with the L and PSG.
I see them as very aggressive and I assume they are fighting each other to give the best to the player, in the end it is him they have to convince after a disappointing season.

Yes Victor is not only a good player, talented but also a truly decent person
in fact he didnt like how he was treated this season, he scored few goals but it is not his fault... an attacker scores if he is supported by the team, otherwise he simply doesn.
I am sad he leave italy.

With what Osimhen has done this season for Napoli I think it is enough, indeed this season Osimhen has declined a little but it cannot be denied that the injury Osimhen suffered also made him lose his best performance a little, but with the injury he suffered he suffered and made Osimhen often sit on the bench reserve this season, but Osimhen continues to score goals with his current Topscore ranking in third place and can still overtake Vlahovic in second place with a difference of one goal, with this we have to admit that Osimhen is one good sraiker.

With the incident that happened to Osimhen which made him decline a little, this is also because the Napoli team is also not in good form, so in this case this season I think Osimhen is still good even though he has been hit by a storm of injuries and the team's declining performance. Osimhen can still score goals and record his name on the Topscore board.

[boltz]

Frosinione - Inter is the only game from Serie A today and honestly I can't expect anything from this game besides the hosts giving 110% in order to take points because Inter has no mean to actually risk some key injuries at the end of the season when the title has already been won. 

[LUCKMCFLY]

yep, I understand what we all want to see Osimhen leave Napoli to improve his career to join the right team with the guarantee of taking his career to a higher level but to be honest a move to PSG would probably just be a great career in the domestic league and there not only getting the domestic league title but also getting money with a big salary but for a title in a big competition like the UCL it doesn't seem like PSG is the right choice.
and regarding the offer from Man United, it seems there is no harm in Osimhen accepting the offer to join Man United, but Osimhen has to look at future developments, whether Ten Hag there will be fired or retained and if Ten Hag is fired from MU, Osimhen will still be there, great hopes of joining MU to get a better career because they have better experience in big competitions compared to League 1.

But PSG is not a bad option for him, because they reached the semi-finals, they just had bad luck and lost, but they also couldn't beat Dortmund, for some reason Dortmund was the finalist, but this is not bad, therefore when we quickly concluded that at least if Osimhen enters PSG, because I know he has a direct pass to UCL, he would also enter as defending champion, while in MU he has to build everything from the beginning, and if Ten Hag doesn't leave, then things It will be worse, he really has to see what his best future is because they are not in the best moment and with a coach like that I don't see any good future.

Twenty years later, Arsenal fans are hoping that this time they will finally win the league.

However, regardless of whether they win the league, the progress they’ve made this season should continue next season. Making smart transfer purchases is one way to improve.

Undoubtedly, one wise transfer swoop will be to sign a clinical striker. Arsenal eventually found their groove in front of goal, but they struggled at first due to a lack of a clinical striker. The strikers, Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah, have just not been reliable, and it would be criminal not to bring in an upgrade.

That should be the case, Inter Milan doesn't have any interest in the remaining matches this season, but the surprising thing that happened is that Inter Milan managed to win with a landslide score of 5 goals without reply.
I was quite disappointed, I bet on Frosinione's victory, I thought that those who needed full points to get away from the relegation zone could show a more persistent game, especially since they were playing at home, but in fact Frosinione lost badly.

[Pulsar77]

I hope Osimhen doesn't sign for PSG. I would rather see him playing for an English team. PSG are a loser in the Champions League. Still no titles and Mbappe has also stated his departure by the end of the season.

The Ligue 1 is like most boring league in Europe.    What will Osimhen do there? He should play in one of top European leagues to improve his game and career both.

Chelsea might be one of the seriously interested teams but they aren't in the Champions League next season. If Osimhen gets an offer from a qualified team then his choice would be that one imho.

[Albarq]

looks easy but very difficult to predict.
yesterday Inter helped Sassuolo to get 3 points while Milan and Juventus recently chose to end the match with a draw.
for me, betting on one team winning in each match is very risky.
but I really appreciate your betting plan, because maybe you take this risk for the right odds results.

I think Juventus are currently disappointed because they lost points when facing AS Roma in Serie A because they took too many unconvincing steps in the match with their playing style taking too many risks in the last minute of the match with the Bianconeri holding on with the hosts taking the lead first with a strong second The teams competed equally strong 1-1, so the team I supported lost badly.

Osimhen can still score goals and record his name on the Topscore board.

Those team that succeed in becoming champions will always be able to dominate the title of best player and also the title of top scorer, just like last season when Napoli became champions and won the Scudetto, the top scorer belonged to Osimhen and the best player belonged Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Napoli had more than two players who got the best title last season, and the great one was Khvicha Kvaratskhelia because he got this big achievement in his first season with Napoli.
For now, Inter Milan is the champion and Lautaro Martinez is the top scorer and Inter Milan dominates the title of best player.
But for Osimhen himself, if he doesn't suffer an injury, there is possibility that he can match Lautaro Martinez even though Napoli cannot finish in one of the top places.

But unfortunately next season we will not see Osimhen playing for Napoli because there is an agreement that will be made between Napoli and PSG to purchase Osimhen.
Previously, it was also reported that Chelsea had an interest in having Osimhen, but Napoli asked for quite large amount and Chelsea themselves were in difficult financial situation so it was reported that it was impossible for them to compete with PSG to get Osimhen.

Juventus was not only disappointed when they faced Roma, even before facing Roma, Juventus had often lost points and was only able to get 1 point in the last few matches, so Juventus' disappointment has become a natural thing when the club should be able to get as many points as possible but was only able to get 1 point, which means appearance
Juventus is not optimal, winning 1 point against Roma is already a satisfactory result for Juventus because they are still in the Champions League zone with quite safe points but it is not satisfying for Juventus fans who want to see Juventus win in the remaining matches.

Today Juventus will face Salernitana it should be a fairly easy match for Juventus to win against the weakest club in the league but we also don't know what will happen because Salernitana is fighting in the relegation zone to save its position it has to get important points in every match and what he is facing today is a top club even though their performance is inconsistent, but Salernitana is also not easy to steal 3 points from Juventus.

as I said before, if Osimhen joined PSG, it wouldn't be a bad thing (if his desire was for money) but it would be very bad if you thought about his future career to gain great experience in a prestigious league like the UCL.
everyone acknowledges all these statements and looking at the rumors circulating, maybe I will ignore Man United, but in fact I would agree more if Osimhen joined Arsenal or Chelsea.
both teams from the EPL need players like Osimhen to regain their glory and the future of Osimhen career looks brighter than having to go to PSG who will only get 1 league title throughout the season.
even though PSG had competed until the semi finals, that doesn't mean it can guarantee Osimhen will get the UCL title because PSG will always fail in the UCL even though they have 10 star players.

Transfer market is changing really fast. Normally I also agree with you on that. 150 million euros is really a huge value to pay for Osimhen. If he is signed by this amount he is going to be the 3rd most expensive transfer of all time after Neymar (€222m) and Mbappe (€180m). People will surely discuss whether Osimhen is that great player.

However like I said this is the nature of the transfer market. There is inflation here too. Players get more expensive in time. As a result I won't be surprised if a rich team steps forward and pay what Napoli wants for him. 

[FanEagle]

The fact that Bologna reached third place, and not even with like a lot of wins, they are getting draws and even a loss, but they got at least few wins, all because Juventus basically fails to win games now, shows how bad Juventus got. Bologna was fighting to keep Roma from fourth place just recently, not Roma is sixth and trying to be fifth, and that is not really a good look for them.

This is basically a proof that Bologna is doing great there is no doubt about that but it is also a fact that we are seeing other teams not doing all that well neither, that is the point. If other teams, like Juventus for example, won their games, they would have been ahead, or if Roma had wins, they would have been higher too, but they both failed to win their games.

Juventus' poor performance is a bit of an advantage for Bologna and I think now Bologna is safe enough to finish in 3rd place, but apart from that, the most important thing is that they can get a ticket to the Champions League next season and I think that is quite certain.

Roma, who are competing for tickets to the Champions League next season, also seem to have lost any hope after losing to Atalanta this week, and so now there is no more competition at the top, I think everything is over and It's quite a shame that De Rossi failed to fulfill management's target, namely getting a place in the Champions League next season.
Even though De Rossi has made ROma's performance quite good since his arrival, their performance has slowly declined.
