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

[katanic97]

Can lower the mentality of the players and make them lose hope to fix it, actually it not too late because there are still quite lot of match left until the competition ends later and this is not about winning the title but to improve the standings and can slowly go to the right path to stay consistent.
This is also bad season for Thiago Motta at the beginning of his career coaching Juventus because he has not been able to really set stable performance for his players, in the future in several match Juventus will only play against team that are not so strong like Genoa, Lecce, Parma, Monza even though after that their opponent was team that could not be underestimated, Lazio will find it easier to shift Juventus position.

Of course, you are right to say what you say. Thiago Motta is at the beginning, he had a brilliant career with Bologna and many hoped he could do the same with Juventus.
Of course, if he starts losing the next matches which are easy then there are definitely problems.
In your opinion, what is Juventus biggest problem?

I'll jump in ahead with my opinion

Thiago was a great player and had an excellent career. He did a great job with Bologna, but i think Juventus is not the right club for him. Of course, Juve is a big club, but I believe Thiago is more suited for "smaller" teams. He still needs experience in certain aspects, which he won’t get at Juventus.

Here’s an example: Conte at Napoli. They have an average squad, plus Kvara has left, yet they are still at the top. Conte has the experience to get the maximum out of his team, and that’s what Thiago lacks.I think Juventus’ biggest problem is their squad and consistency. They have good players, but they need reinforcements in defense and midfield.

In as much has a lot of people have criticized Thiago motta about his performance in juventus, I think he is doing an incredible job. Even if the best coaches are given this squad I don’t think they can win the title with it. For sure Thiago motta still lack experience in coaching line, but even when he qualified to the champions league with bologna it was still with bunch of average players and now in juventus there are still bunch of average players who wears jerseys of a big club. The only time I’m going to criticize Thiago motta is when the management gives him some quality players and he still fails to deliver but as for me using this squad to get a champions league spot is a job well done.

And about Napoli, you can’t compare the quality in Napoli team and in this juventus team, Napoli still have players who have won the Squdetto and also signed players who have challenge for European titles, the likes of mark Tominay, Romelu lukaku and even Bill Gilmour. So you see why you can’t compare both teams. Even conte will struggle with this juventus Squad.

I agree with you about Thiago. With a bit more experience and more games in the Champions League, he will be great. I would love for him to have a coaching career as successful as his playing career.

You misunderstood me, i was comparing the coaches, not saying that Napoli has a bad team, but they are significantly weakened. Conte might struggle, but he would still get the maximum out of Vlahović and Kolo Muani.

[Lillominato89]

Sorry for my absence but I was still celebrating this Juventus defeat obviously I'm joking
Unfortunately, I also think that it is not only Thiago Motta's fault, it is everyone's fault, let's remember that it is the players who go on the pitch, not the coaches.
These events happen and must be a starting point, I'm sure Juventus will be angrier from now on

Don't worry, you are forgiven, in the end i also celebrated Juventus defeat.
I had predicted they would lose but not with this score obviously, given that Iihave always given Juventus a negative outlook, not by chance I would like to say.

This does nothing but confirm my hypotheses and theses. yay!

It wasn't entirely obvious that Juventus would lose against Atalanta, they were playing at home and were coming off 5 consecutive victories, so there were no grounds for seeing such a negative performance!
For me this was an isolated case, similar to when Lazio lost against Inter 0-6 and in that period Lazio had obtained many good performances and consecutive useful results, but after the defeat they didn't get discouraged and immediately started to get other points again. I think it will be the same for Juventus

It was something that had certainly had some inklings in the past, there were many disappointments that led to that result against Atalanta, the fact of always having to deal with the usual difficulties led even the most determined players to collapse, and the coach did nothing but worsen the situation Thiago Motta was practically absent and did nothing to stop the defeat

[giammangiato]

I hope Thiago Motta tries to understand what he did wrong, because it seems to me to be his mistake and not the team's.

In my opinion, Juventus' management needs to start thinking big. It seems like they've stopped in time. They're hiring coaches with very small goals, like finishing in the European Champions League, instead of hiring coaches who have the focus and determination to win Serie A.

Look at Napoli's case. The management thinks big and doesn't accept coaches who aren't competing for the title. If a coach isn't getting good results and is capable of fighting for the title, he's fired. Today, Napoli is fighting for the title, while Juventus is only focused on positions like third and fourth place.

Yes, also, that mentality that made Juventus a great team has been lost.

In my opinion, that is the problem: the winning mentality.

It is not possible to take slaps like that from Atalanta, without offending Atalanta.
A defeat could have happened but not conceding 4 goals like this.

to me honestly it didn't seem like Juventus was playing badly that match, they had chances and many of them but they couldn't capitalize on them.
then you also add that bad luck afflicts you and then the omelette is done. Juventus' biggest problem is not the coach but some players who think they are the best and instead are just mediocre overpaid, like Gatti, Vlahovic who if I'm not mistaken has the highest salary in Serie A and is a unique lousy player

[bastisisca]

Juventus have put pressure on themselves because if they had played hard and good performance they would not have seen this opportunity because Juventus is not as weak a team as we think because Juventus have put themselves in a better position due to their bravery and strength but some tough matches forced them to weaken which made it difficult for them to advance.  If Juventus play like nobody's business in their next few matches, they can pave their way to victory. If so, then they take more money for their hard work and success, if it is not in their favor, then their money should be reduced and more attention should be paid to their hard work, which will make them more capable and earn their hard work.  It saddens me to see this state of Juventus because Juventus have played some good matches recently but they have not been able to fully succeed.

In short, i don't agree that Juventus has had good performances, in my opinion it has had mediocre performances and consequently it is not at the top of the table. He is still at risk of not playing in the Champions League next year, Lazio wants to go there and will not stop to achieve this goal.
You understand that we are at Lazio's level, i mean Juventus

I think both teams are in a good position and are challenging but the matches between Juventus and Lazio are often competitive. Although Juventus has more history and titles, Lazio is currently in their best form and has emerged as a major force. Lazio currently has some great players who are putting the team in a good position. In particular, their attacking play and tactical coordination have improved a lot. They have shown very good performances in recent seasons.

Yes, it's true, you are right but i too, like you, celebrated his humiliation. I don't like "gobbi" by nature and i prefer other teams.
I'm a light fan, i am a light fan so you can carefully evaluate and weigh the words I say, they are dictated by my being non-paranoid with football.

[Slow death]

In my opinion, that is the problem: the winning mentality.

Next season we will see Juventus again not fighting for the title, it seems that Juventus has become an irrelevant team in Serie A, they are the same as Bologna, Fiorentina, Roma who only have a name, but do not fight for the title every season. I hope that the Juventus board starts to think about whether they really want to finish every season in positions below number 1 or whether they are going to fight for the title.


My guess for today's game:

Genoa - Lecce (Genoa will win)

Genoa injured players: Mattia Bani, Junior Messias, Vitinha, Honest Ahanor, Caleb Ekuban and Mario Balotelli

Lecce injured players: Filip Marchwinski

Player	Goal
Mateo Retegui	22
Moise Kean	15
Ademola Lookman	13
Marcus Thuram	13
Lorenzo Lucca	10
Romelu Lukaku	10
Lautaro Martinez	10
Valentin Castellanos	9
Artem Dovbyk	9
Nikola Krstovic	9
Riccardo Orsolini	9
Dusan Vlahovic	9
Che Adams	8
Sebastiano Esposito	8
Andrea Pinamonti	8
Christian Pulisic	8
Tijjani Reijnders	8
Florian Thauvin	8
Mattia Zaccagni	8

Well now I know Retegui well, unfortunately. He scored one of the 4 goals against my Juventus

The championship is very difficult and it is also very difficult to make this kind of predictions.
Especially in this phase of the championship, we remember the most difficult in the world, it becomes complex for all teams, big and small.
Let's remember that even the teams at the bottom of the table become dangerous, since they have to save themselves

Juventus does not have truly stable player, I admit Thiago Motta has worked well but it is still not enough because he also has to go through this difficult period in the first season and what we can expect is next season, this season they are not optimal but next season hopefully they can perform more satisfactorily.
If we talk about the problems experienced by Juventus, I think it is only about the condition of the players who cannot be consistent, I just curious about how Juventus will continue next season especially when they later participate in the UCL competition.

I will expect same performance for juventus and Thiago motta next season if they fail to sign high profile players, players who can actually bring the team back to the position they belong, i will always say it, Thiago is doing a very good job at juventus right now, securing a top 4 position in the Italian league this season with this squad is something incredible. Amongst the Europe top 5 league this season I would say the Italian league is one of the most competitive. When you look at that defense and midfield you will see that it a bunch of average players. You can’t compete for the scudetto with this squad.

It will be only a disaster if juventus qualify for the champions league and still insist to play with this squad both in the champions league and compete for the Italian league and cups next season. For sure new players will be added to the squad during the break but the big question is will they be of high quality.

Both teams are playing well in every tournament and their stats is looking just same  same . But Juventus football team won 1 more match . Lazio football team won 2 matches out of 5 matches and Juventus team won 3 matches. Lazio performance is excellent in last matches because that team won 2 matches out of 5 matches and 2 matches were draw in last 5 matches but we will see match between Lazio football team and Juventus football team in the May . I am super excited to watch this match because both teams are my favorite teams.Juventus football team position is at 4 which is not bad and points of that team are 52 and points of Lazio football team are 51 .

Isn't it too early to say this? Both teams will still go through 7 matches that could change the squad's condition. But there's nothing wrong with speculating early on and anyway I still support Juventus who will win and maintain their position to get a UCL ticket next season.

But I'm curious, how can you have 2 favorite teams in one league?

Exactly, making a correct prediction is highly difficult in Serie A, but overall in all championships. The fact is that there are very specific indicators to be able to predict a match, such as the physical form or the latest results obtained.
According to this, I believe that apart from history and results, the fourth place at the end will be from Juventus, Lazio even if it is in a better moment will have to face Juventus and Inter in the last games and it will be difficult for them to have two wins

Judging by their current form, it is Lazio that seem to be favourites due to their consistency both the Europa and in the seria A, but Juventus on the other side are a traditional Italian club with much experience though the team seems to be facing some difficulties at the moment but all the same it's going to be a very interesting game in the seria A and I expect both teams go all out against each other and at such I expect multiple goals and perhaps a win for Lazio except Juventus can show some character by playing like an elite team that they are because that's what Juventus haven't done this season.

Juventus are undermining themselves because their performance and record strength is not what they think it is. In this match, Juventus' effort was good and strong, due to which they will succeed.They should play well in every match then they will have more points in their record and it will be easy to win these matches. For this they have to improve and prepare themselves so that more and more of their strength will attract us to the good. Juventus pride themselves on winning few of their matches which doesn't make their performance so good and strong and they are weakening their position and points and their strength over time which has cost them a lot which will not include them in the title.
