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

[Slow death]

Honestly there aren't many interesting games on the opening week of the season.

The attention getting one is Como vs Lazio to me.



Como is working on a new project with Fabregas. He didn't even want to sign for Leverkusen this summer. They are investing in some nice young players lately.

Lazio on the other hand hasn't made big changes. In a game Como are favoured by bookies, which one do you favour? I think Como won't lose. 

Como has indeed made some signings, but I still see Lazio being able to get a good result in this game, knowing that Lazio will be playing away from home, so getting a win or a draw is already a good result. Historically, Lazio has done much better when they play against Como, as you can see:

Como has often conceded a lot of goals when they play against Lazio, but in the last game in which both teams faced each other things were different. Como did not lose and did not concede many goals, they managed a draw, this is probably due to the squad having improved in quality, so betting on Lazio's victory is risky without watching the game, that's why in the first round of Serie A I will not place a bet, I want to see all the games to know how each team is doing.

This match will take place at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia, Como's home ground. Como will undoubtedly need to perform better in their opening match of the season. They can't afford to drop points in their first match, especially in front of thousands of fans packed for their first match next week. Three points or a draw would be the best outcome, as their opponents are very strong.

However, with the changes they've made in the transfer market, they certainly have the opportunity to surprise the public if they manage to beat Lazio. Morata and Jesus Rodriguez will be our focus as both players are new arrivals at Como. I hope they can make a positive impact on Como's attack this season.

De Facto, Inter still has competitive team for the scudetto. I won'd dismiss it as they still have some big names such as Lautaro. However, Chivu is the main factor that doubts me at this moment. I must be honest Chivu is ain't nothing compared to the Simeone Inzaghi. That makes me think Chivu not really competence in handling the club.

I can be patience enough to wait and see how Chivu's team play several games. Then i can take a conclusion whether he's improvement or a downgrade for the club.

And the saddest thing is? Chivu wasn't even a manager for that long. He managed youth clubs at inter, which is awesome of course, starting that way is great and he managed 150+ games at youth levels which is of course an amazing career before you start. But then when he started, he only managed 10-15 games at Parma, and then he moved to be the main manager of Inter right away. How is that enough for Inter?

I think someone like him should have spent a few years at a lower team before he is seen as enough for Inter, and Inzaghi was better. That dude did all he could for this team and reached to finals and all that, now he is gone, because he failed to win. Soon they will realize, it was his achievement to lose at the finals, without him, they wouldn't even be in the finals.

[Just Say]

Honestly I don’t think so, and I still have doubts about this new manager Chivu I don’t really know what he can bring to this Inter Milan side, he didn’t bring in proper new legs to strengthen the already tough Inter side we know. It’ll be nice to see how he manages this players and brings out the best in them to compete for titles this season. Inter has been the most performing Italian club side for a while they were just unlucky not to have won the champions league. So long as there’s Lautaro Martinez that Inter side is a formidable one, they still have a lot of good old players so even though no new great signing they can still do great with the team they have

Inter Milan are still a strong team without any new additions. They just need confidence and a great plan for the big matches. They lacked confidence a bit in the Champions League final last season and their homework against PSG was a bit flawed, which is why their strategy was not effective against PSG. But they could definitely add some players and add some great players in the attack line so that they can play an attacking plan without relying too much on counterattacks. Even with their midfield I have some reasons to be disappointed, they must work on the midfield and create balance in the team and play attacking football.

This team has taken past experience as a foundation, which is why they are still strong without any new additions. However this team could add players to boost their offensive capabilities and they could use those players to counter-attack in the new season even if they fall behind in a match maybe that's what PSG did recently against Tottenham in the Super Cup final.You are right that this Italian club needs to work on their midfield and create balance but they may be looking to move on and add a new midfield player as they have put Piotr on the market and by selling this player, they are freeing up space for a new midfielder. If this Italian League runner-up team adds a midfield smart player, then it seems that they will be established as more influential.

Lazio is a tough and unpleasant team to face.
I don't think I'll make any bets on the first day yet, I want to see how the teams perform for a couple of weeks

The departure of Inzaghi will affect Inter for a while. However, Chivu has experience in the coaching field despite that he was the coach to a youth club. If he understands the potential and strength of every player in Inter, he can use them perfectly to fit into his game strategy. Don't underestimate Chivu and watch what he has to offer this season.

Bravo! This is a very prudent move. Seeing how teams perform in the first few days of the championship can give you many clues.
Obviously we can never know if the hoped-for results will come true, but it remains a very good tactic

The match you were talking about will be a very close one in my opinion
I saw a very combative Como in the summer friendlies

[Lillominato89]

Here at last is a truly honest comment on Inter!
I am an Inter fan and of course I may not see what others see as non-fans.
But talking about luck seemed a bit exaggerated to me! Because luck was exactly what Inter lacked last year.

Now a new chapter will begin with Chivu, will we win or not win this I cannot say, but from the friendlies and the club world championship I have seen a team that is still very very competitive

yes the team is still the same, needless to say they will play everything to the death, but the team is ready as it was last year, of course Chivu was called as a "ferryman" to better manage the team which otherwise would have gone into self-management, they can still do a lot, so yes they can do it

They can do it! They can!
The team is the same one that managed to reach 2 Champions League finals
It has changed little, only substitutes and the coach.
If Chivu is a competent coach we could see an Inter capable of winning the Scudetto, otherwise the minimum objective must remain getting into the Champions League

[bitgolden]

If is the biggest part. If Chivu is good, then yeah Inter has a great chance to win the league this season, but that is only if Chivu is a good manager. So far we do not know if he is a good manager or not, it's a questionable thing and we have no clue about it at all.

We are just making an assumption, and because of that it would be very tough for us to accept that they are going to be that great. We are going to of course see how this could be that bad, Inter is a great team after all, so even if Chivu turns out to be not that great, it would not be an easy thing. But we can definitely end up with a lot better results when we are talking about it, it's going to be something that will be questionable for the long term.

Of course these are only suppositions, but there are some important aspects to take into account.
The first is the team, which is very competitive
The second is the coach
If this combination works then Inter has a great chance of winning something this year. Otherwise it's been a year of transition.
I hope Chivu does well, and so far in the friendlies he's been quite good, even tonight he won 2-0 against Olimpiacos

A coach can certainly change everything even without extensive experience, but if he skilled at managing formations and strategies, I think chivu can transform Inter milan into a stronger team. I say this because I've seen xabi alonso successfully transform Leverkusen, and chivu could do the same. But we'll see how well he performs this season.

Furthermore, in Serie A, Several major team, like ac milan, are experiencing a decline in performance. This will certainly benefit Inter and other teams. But inter must work hard, as underestimating their opponents could cost them the title, as they did last season.

I don't think so. Just like Atalanta, they're a team without a coach. As much as we love Chivu, he's a nobody, let's be clear. He was chosen to save money as second choice, given that the first choice was Fabregas, who Como had secured for more money. So, amen, just get into the Champions League.

You may be right, he was a second choice but there were other, better trained coaches around, why did they choose Chivu? It can't just be a choice of saving money because if Chivu does badly at the start of the season they'll have to change coach on the run and pay two instead of one.
I'm watching the friendlies and I have to say that Inter are playing very cleanly and with criteria and this gives me hope. Maybe we won't win but at least we can fight for fourth place in the league

It's definitely a gamble what Marotta did but by now this man has taught us that he has bionic vision on these things!
He always makes good choices, so I'd say give Chivu our trust and wait for the very first results of the championship to have an idea about him

[Tmoonz]

This seems to be a similar case of Vincent kompany and Bayern Munich, but I'm quite sure it won't end well for them, even if Vincent kompany is winning games at the germain bundesliga it's not a surprise to me because Bayern Munich had got no competitors there so they must win, but for inter to do same I'm afraid it won't end well, as they've got to many rivals, I was actually thinking they will win the scudetto this season but with this I doubt if they can, what is their reason of hiring another manager, if not that Inzaghi lost the champions League final I didn't see anything bad on him, and it's not easy to get to the champions League final, so I believe they will certainly regret it.

Marotta no longer plays that role, however, but is now the president of Inter. His former role was rediscovered by Piero Ausilio, who is also quite good in this role, but Marotta was the top.
Incidentally, Marotta has become a minority shareholder in Inter! He bought 2 per cent of the shares.
Let's hope the choices made on Chivu are right

Only time will tell if it was the right choice or not!
I still remember the grumbling of the fans when Antonio Conte left and Simone Inzaghi arrived! They were all sad.
Then Inzaghi silenced everyone by bringing success and trophies! So who knows if history is repeating itself again with Chivu

I don't really understand this choice man. Why Chivu? What did they see in him for real? He isn't even a coach who has proven his skills. 

Why not Mancini? He won the Serie A 3 times with Inter and many more other trophies also. Or they considered him but thought maybe his methods could be old for today as of now...

I also hope Chivu doesn't mess up.

I don't know! I honestly don't understand what they could have seen in Chivu!
He doesn't have the skills to win! I hope I'm wrong but that's the truth of the matter at the moment.
I don't think Mancini would have wanted to return to Inter for the third time, but there were other coaches available anyway
They could have made different choices

[LUCKMCFLY]

I never understood players who are okay with staying in a team when they are offered zero minutes. It's clear that with Sesko arriving, he wasn't considered before, now he is going to be just nobody there. So the idea that he would be willing to stay even without playing a single game, makes no sense to me.

Like everything in life, there are people who are conformists and that is something that you cannot fight against, in football if they don't give you minutes you have to leave even if you are in the best club in the world, because you are not going to be successful, the only way to prove it is by playing, and if you win championships without having participated that is not merit, there are many players who are like that, even the young ones, being 16-17 years old you can put up with it, but even so things have to be considered because in football the career is short.

Then Inzaghi silenced everyone by bringing success and trophies! So who knows if history is repeating itself again with Chivu

It's simple, this season we'll find out who was responsible, the players' or Inzhagi's For me, Pipo had a lot to do with it, but we have to wait and see how Serie A closes.
