⚽ Lega Serie A 🇮🇹 (Italian League) Prediction Thread 2025/2026 ⚽

Thiago Motta in theory would still be a Juventus coach, he was relieved of his position last year but he is still on Juventus' payroll, so he could take his place again, but I don't think something like this will ever happen at Juventus, they are too proud to make such a gesture, it would be like admitting a mistake on their part!
And then in any case I don't think that Motta is now truly a coach capable of managing a great team like Juventus

Everyone at Juventus is very confused, and in fact this confusion is reflected in the team as well.
as they were very confused at Milan, then Massimiliano Allegri arrived and put them all back in line
It's clear that Modric is giving him a terrible hand, despite those who said he was old.

Well, in the meantime, Tudor has been dismissed from his position! But his place has not been taken by Thiago Motta, but by Brambilla.
So now Juventus has three coaches on the payroll, haha.
In short, they made a good deal last year.
It's a shame because Thiago Motta was a promising coach, but he burned himself out immediately by going to coach Juventus! And in my opinion, Chivu will meet the same fate.

only three coaches on the payroll? I thought there was more.
this is dementia
spend money, or rather, I'm sorry, throw money away like this and not buy players
this is the emblem of the deficiency of modern football, nothing more
they deserve to sink honestly..

Atalanta played 4 matches after they won against Torino. That does not include the matches that Atalanta played in the Champions League competition.
Here, there has begun to be discussion that Ivan Juric is a questionable figure as Atalanta's tactician.

Facing AC Milan in the 9th match of Serie A is a burden for Juric whether he can break the trend of never winning for the number of matches that I mentioned above will be answered because AC Milan also failed in their last match against Pisa. The draw result was witnessed by 72,615 spectators who came to the stadium at this time, AC Milan actually has the opportunity to dominate the Serie A standings.

Not exactly. Brambilla is already the coach for Juventus B team, so he was on the payroll for their staff anyways, just wasn't the main teams coach, it was younger side. He is interim coach, and will go back to being B team coach again, it is not really that shocker to get someone from inside to handle until you find a new coach.

However, you are also right that they will have three coaches on payroll, they had Motta, and now Tudor is gone so they are paying for all those two, and then they will hire a new third one, instead of Brambilla who is only here for interim, so when that third one comes, they will have three coaches paid by them. However, I would like to mention that this isn't unheard of, it happens quite often.

Tudor's tactics were largely based on defense. Brambilla, who himself favored an attacking style during his playing days at various Italian clubs could potentially serve as an interim solution for Juventus until they find a more suitable permanent head coach. However, I don't see Brambilla taking the role long-term, given his track record.

Putting Juventus aside, today Napoli faces Lecce. I expect at least 2.5 over total and Napoli victory.

[FanEagle]

Motta should have stayed, he was a decent one. Tudor was a decent one too ,just because he didn't get the results a few games in a row shouldn't mean they are doing this firing spree. In any case, Juventus is making a mistake, but they are aware of the mistake they are doing, which is good.

Because now they realized that getting just any coach won't work, they have the money and the club size to actually pull in some amazing coach, some very big name coach. I am not saying go get Pep from City, sure that would be still possible. Because Pep has shown interest  that he wants to manage one team from all big five leagues before, he did la liga, bundesliga and premier league, only leagues left are Serie A and ligue one, so Juventus could do that if they pay him a lot since City is doing badly now. But sure , that would be unrealistic, but they realized they need to get a big name like that.

Sassuolo vs Roma 0-1
The match isn't over yet, but Roma are currently leading 1-0 against Sassuolo! If they win, this victory will take them to the top of the table alongside Napoli, who beat Inter in yesterday's big match.
Roma, with Gasperini at the helm, seem completely rejuvenated. It has been a long time since Roma have been seen fighting for the top positions in the table.

Sassuolo Calcio football team performance was very bad against Roma football team and that team could not do any goal in this match. The players of that team looked under confident and nobody could do brilliant in this match. Opponent team became successful to do goal in this match and there was only 1 person who did first goal of the match and he did this goal at 16 minutes and that was  important goal because we saw no more goal in this match.The shots of Sassuolo Calcio football team were less in this match and these were only 13 and 3 shots were on target and possession percentage of that team was also very low and that was only 41 percent.

[Abbatty]

Important win for Napoli as they played against Lecce today away from home, it was a very difficult game for them and they had to manage 0-1 to secure all 3 points. I thought Lecce was going to win today because they really played well and they even got a penalty early second half but failed to score, it almost look like it going to be a draw but Anguissa produced a big moment for Napoli and scored the only goal in the game.

Napoli will still remain top of the table regardless AC Milan result against Atalanta today, they are playing a 1-1 draw already and I feel it a match that will end in a draw.

Napoli was significantly weakened, as they played without KDB, who got injured against Inter. Every next match will be more difficult for Napoli. Luckily, McTominay and Anguissa are in good form and score goals when it matters most. Napoli is first on the table and has one game more. Milan took an early lead, but Lookman equalized. This will be a tough match , both teams are good, but i currently give a slight advantage to Atalanta because of the stats

Facing AC Milan in the 9th match of Serie A is a burden for Juric whether he can break the trend of never winning for the number of matches that I mentioned above will be answered because AC Milan also failed in their last match against Pisa. The draw result was witnessed by 72,615 spectators who came to the stadium at this time, AC Milan actually has the opportunity to dominate the Serie A standings.

Atalanta vs AC Milan match was very tense. Both teams looked solid in all aspects. The match is currently in the second half. And the score is still tied at 1-1. In this second half Atalanta's performance seemed to decline compared to the first half, where AC Milan seemed more dominant. And it seems Atalanta is trying to focus on their defense. So I personally prefer to predict this match will remain a draw until the end as we can see how fierce and even solid their players are in this match. But there is a possibility that AC Milan will win this match as the temporary statistics show an increase in performance by AC Milan, where they have had a fairly high ball possession compared to Atalanta so far and even AC Milan has even taken several more shots than Atalanta in this second half. Let's see how this match unfolds.

[Agbe]

Nice to see Napoli back to winning ways, most importantly is the way that they played against KDB . Getting an important away victory tonight against lecce in the Seria A Italia A. Three points is what is important sometimes scoring of plenty of goals is not necessary doing what is needed is most important and that is what napoli did tonight. Napoli still tops the league but KDB is definitely going to be missed because he is one player that has a lot of experience.

The match ended in a draw, bro. The score remained 1-1 until the end.
Although AC Milan managed to force Atalanta to equalize after AC Milan's goal by Ricci, Atalanta, through Lookman, finally managed to make things even more exciting, as the score was already 1-1. However, what I noticed was that Atalanta played with a total of 17 shots, which made their expected goals (xG) higher than AC Milan's.
The point earned allows AC Milan to move back into the lead with Napoli, who narrowly beat Lecce.

I would say it was an extremely difficult game that literally kept me on the edge of my seat, especially during Francesco Camarda's penalty, which luckily was saved. Nevertheless, Napoli's play was more decisive, especially in the second half. BTW, I've noticed that they tend to perform better in the second half of matches. They secured  1-0 victory, which also meant I won the bet I placed on them.

[emrecemsan]

All I can say about the Atalanta v Milan match is that Juric's team played much better and deserved a win... But they are still having huge issues. What the hell is 2 wins and 7 draws mate? 

I guess Allegri didn't prefer to play so brave. They were really bad in general to tell the truth. I think he should prefer a different game plan in such big matches. He should go for a more offensive one. They have a good potential with their current attackers.

[katanic97]

Three points is what is important sometimes scoring of plenty of goals is not necessary doing what is needed is most important and that is what napoli did tonight. Napoli still tops the league but KDB is definitely going to be missed because he is one player that has a lot of experience.

You can really see how much Lukaku is being missed, and especially now it will be clear how much KDB is missing. Napoli has won two very important matches and is currently at the top of the table. Roma has one game in hand, and if they win, Napoli and Roma will be level on points. Milan drew with Atalanta yesterday and thus lost the top spot in the standings. From what i can see, Serie A has significantly declined in terms of quality  the tempo isn’t the same, and the teams are definitely weaker.

Brambilla, who himself favored an attacking style during his playing days at various Italian clubs could potentially serve as an interim solution for Juventus until they find a more suitable permanent head coach. However, I don't see Brambilla taking the role long-term, given his track record.

Putting Juventus aside, today Napoli faces Lecce. I expect at least 2.5 over total and Napoli victory.

This tactic doesn't work, if you defend you will always defend and if you don't score you can't win, you can at most draw.
basing everything on defense means you're losing from the start
It's not the defender who wins, but the one who scores the most goals. You have to understand the rules of the game to be able to play well.

As I said before, no one can predict the winner of the Serie A league this season, all of the Serie A league clubs are not serious, they do not have a winning mentality, Ac Milan was at the top of the table last week and are no longer at the top of the league after playing against Atlanta; the league is so confused that you cannot support any team. You can see that one team will lead the league table this week, and another team will lead the league table the following week, shows how uninteresting the Serie A league was this season.

I already know that Atlanta will not let Ac Milan win the match because Ac Milan did not play well in the match, and Atlanta has always been a team that is very difficult to defeat by Ac Milan, although Ac Milan try their best because they defend well despite the way Atlanta was pressing to make sure they win the match, Atlanta is currently the sturborn team in Serie A because they make sure they get a point even if it is a draw in a match, that is something that every team should be proud of, but the Serie A teams must perform well and make the league looks more competitive.

We all knew that can never happen either the Motta and nor Juventus, and even if they're to call him back the question is can he bring back the team to it glory days? What Juventus need at this point in time is the right coach and the right players, because Juventus has been in the dark for way too long and it's definitely unlike them, and who could be this chosen manager and players that can revive Juventus, I still remember when Juventus was like Bayern Munich and Paris Saint Germain, like they dominated this league like no one was there to challenge them, but look how things had changed for them now they struggle, the fact is they just need to act fast.

Despite having 2 wins and 7 draws, Atalanta remains the only unbeaten team in Serie A till matchday 9. I think this is good enough, as they recently changed coaches and need more longer time to adjust than other teams. Meanwhile, Milan inconsistency hasn't ended. Napoli, have won their last two matches. If Milan want to stay to compete for title Race, Allegri need to do something with his strategy. As you said, Milan need to improve their attacker also their defender.

Atalanta still unbeaten team in Serie A until games week 9 but they loss many points after playing 7 draw, better loss one or two matches but you can win until three or four matches later not loss many points.
Last night Milan failed get three points after previous games holding draw by Pisa and advantage position for Napoli winning the last night match and right now leading first standings of Serie A. Milan's weakness with attacker and defense, almost every games always conceded and can't make clean sheet. Few hours later have Serie A match for games week 9 Como vs Verona and Juventus vs Hellas Verona, Como have chance move to 4th standings for few hours later if take three points.
