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

[Abbatty]

The truth is that I have a lot of hope for AC Milan , for me it is one of the teams that I most like that can make the Difference , whether with Allegri or not this team must do well, remember that they have a spectacular signing like Modric , and I know that any coach will use him to get the most out of him, because with all his mastery he can give his team that ingredient of balance in attack and Defense.

Modric has been quite good so far, but I can't used him as a reason to win the title. Of course, I also hope Milan can win the title this season, but I think we'll have to wait until the mid season standings. when we will see how the points gap between top four and the the team consistency. The concern right now is, consistency from AC Milan for the entiry seasons match. I know, Juventus success to maintained consistency under Allegri, can this be replicated at Milan?

It still very early to start deciding who will win the scudetto this season, both AC Milan and Napoli are serious contender so far and it could change before the season end because the season is still very early. Modric and Allegri have bring in much impact into this Milan team, they have made the team look more promising.

I think by the time we get to mid season we will start seeing what team is going to win the scudetto, as for me I still think Conte’s Napoli will retain the title, they look more like a  title winning team than AC Milan.

This is Napoli without lukaku, imagine having Lukaku on the team, they will beat almost every team in the league.

Oh yeah, there's a new rumor that AC Milan is interested in one of Liverpool's defenders and has listed him for the January transfer window. Joe Gomez, Liverpool's center-back, is currently 28 years old and has a market value of €20 million.

What exactly are they looking for in Joe Gomez? Statistically, he only played nine times last season, and so far he's only featured twice, mostly from the bench. It seems odd that Milan would be interested in him, especially with a €20 million price tag. In my opinion, that money would be better spent on promising young players. I wonder if Milan don't have competent analytical people.

It was somewhat expected  Atalanta always starts the season very well, but as the league goes on, they lose form and start dropping points in matches where they were the clear favorites.This season could be different, though; again, it’s still too early to make any predictions, but it seems that more teams are involved in the title race.We’ll see what awaits us  i think this season will be more exciting than the last one.

The thing is, Atalanta had a huge off-season this year, and that may change a lot of things. We are talking about a team that literally lost the biggest asset they had, Gasperini and now they are trying to do whatever they can do with whatever they have, and that is a huge deal. They may end up with a horrible result soon enough and I think that is going to be a big problem for them. I know it is not an easy task, but it should not be a horrible return neither.

Let's see where they end the season, but if they do finish in top six, then I would honestly consider that as a good thing, they are looking at this as a good thing and should not be looking at this as a bad way to move further as well. We could do very well with top six.

[Distraction]

First Ivan Juric manages Roma really badly in a short time period and gets sacked. But now he improves at Atalanta... By not much yet though because of getting draws very often. At least he hasn't lost in the Serie A yet. 

It's hard to make a comment on his possible long term performance. But he has a really tough task to do when it comes to finishing in top 4. Because Milan and Roma both have improved this time. They are also in the race for a CL spot.

[M47AK16]

I also agree Gasperini is doing a good job with Roma even if, as already said, they still didn0t face tough opponents and have also been lucky in a  couple of occasions but the real problem imo is they don't have a good stricker in their staff : Dovbyk, despite winning the top scorers chart in Spain, doesn't seem to be comfortable with Gasperini's game and personally it seems to me that he always gets his movements wrong and makes the wrong choice more often than the right one.
Fergusson seems more functional to the game plan but then he is not very incisive in front of goal and throughout his career he still has to prove that he is a striker who can guarantee a certain number of goals for the team; he is still young thou.

It wasn't really a shocker to see this. I mean we are talking about Gasperini here, that dude took Atalanta from basically nowhere, to a top team and Atalanta neither had the money to be that good nor had the history, and he still did it. Roma has both more money coming in usually and also has a better history.

We should be able to see them do a lot better during this period and not going to be that bad. I bet that Roma will keep on fighting for the title, this isn't some fluke that they are up there, they can definitely do a fine job and keep staying near the top. Can they win the title? That one will be very difficult, it's their first year, bhut it's also not impossible and could very well happen, depends on how other teams will do.

Gasperini was definitely their key man ,  he knew how to set up the team, make the right substitutions at the right time, and above all, he was an excellent tactician. He didn’t have much luck in Serie A, he was always just a little short, and now he’s left. The club is going through a tough period, but i think they’ll still manage to reach the top five despite the situation.

I absolutely dislike Ivan Juric as a manager.
He achieved terrible results with Roma last year and was immediately sacked! He went to England and did even worse, getting relegated with Southampton and only scoring 10 points in total in the league table!
Now at Atalanta, he seems to have recovered, but I strongly doubt that he can finish in the top four in the league table.

I don't like Ivan Juric either, he's a mediocre coach who can't do much with his current squad, which has changed little or nothing compared to when Gasperini had it, who won a Europa League, so I don't like him because he can't manage the players he has, I don't think it's worth having a coach like that in his team.

In eight matches managed by Ivan Juric, Atalanta recorded three wins, four draws, and one loss.
Ivan Juric's coaching record hasn't been as stellar as expected. AS Roma made good decisions quickly, saving the season.
Strangely, Southampton appointed Ivan Juric as head coach, but they were relegated.

Who knows, with Atalanta, Ivan Juric might prove to be the man everyone feared.

There are two of us who think so, look and I'll tell you that I'm very interested in the matter
Unfortunately, this is what I'm entitled to this year as an Atlanta fan and I can't do anything about it. Unfortunately, things ended this way due to the club's short-sightedness.
It's right to get stronger and do better, but there comes a point where you have to stop

It wouldn't be AC ​​Milan if they didn't buy players they didn't really need. 
They've often wasted money on transfers, but the players they bought have only been paid by attending training and sitting on the bench. Who knows what Milan's management was thinking, they once had Maldini, who could choose players according to the club's needs, but he was fired. Now, they are trying to waste money again. Someone want to take personal profit from transfer maybe

A €20 million on Gomez is not that bad for me, considering how football market have been inflated so far they it a fair bargain for both parties. Gomez when given time to play is not bad a player, and now he is very experienced, he has played alongside good defenders. A move away from Liverpool is the best for him right now, he lacked playing time and moving to AC Milan will definitely solve that problem for him.

We see players now play at the very best even when they are 33 so if Gomez can give AC Milan good 4-5 years then it good deal for them especially now when they are challenging for the scudetto. Bringing Gomez will be a plus to them and splashing €20 million to get his services is no gamble.

It will be difficult to emulate the results achieved by Gasperini with Atalanta! But that doesn't mean Juric can't achieve excellent results.
Come to think of it, if Gasperini was a top-class manager, why did he barely last five matches with Inter?
That says a lot! Gasp didn't settle in immediately with a big Italian club, but then he found his feet with Atalanta.
Who knows! Maybe Juric will surprise us.

These are classic moves that make no logical sense!
There are plenty of them in Serie A, and unfortunately when a big club like Milan is involved, the news seems more sensational!
Honestly, I agree with you! Milan wouldn't be Milan if it didn't buy at least one player it didn't really need!
Maldini had put together an excellent team with talented players, but someone higher up than him thought it would be better to get rid of someone as competent as Maldini.

Look, I don't know, I just know that I'm very angry, this year I might decide not to support Atalanta at all
I don't get anything in my pocket anyway and these decisions don't seem like intelligent decisions to me
so they can go their own way and I can go mine

I repeat, I have been following the team for years and it is also normal to go up and down from Serie B
but now it's an adult team and we behave like adults

[masulum]

Maldini had put together an excellent team with talented players, but someone higher up than him thought it would be better to get rid of someone as competent as Maldini.

It's either someone in a higher position or someone who feels threatened by Maldini presence. Fan speculation suggests that Ibrahimovic was the one who got Maldini fired. I don't know if that's true or not. If it true, I'm sure Milan fans would lose respect for him, even he is become one of the players brought Milan titles while struggle. touching Maldini will hurt all of Milan fans in the world, because Maldini family is a part of Milan history that Milanista will never forget about them.

[emrecemsan]

There is a match between Roma and Inter closing in... What is your opinion on this tough match? Quite difficult to predict the outcome, right?    Both sides have been doing quite well recently.

Gasperini has still been maintaining the same look since Ranieri left the control for him. On the other side, Chivu is inexperienced with big teams. But he is also improving the results on these days.

- Roma are the least conceding team in the league
- Inter are the most scoring one

On H2H record, I can say Inter are generally one step ahead. If I pick a side here, it'd be Inter @2.39.

I don't know, I've never heard anything about Ibrahimovic having been able to get Maldini to leave his management role.
There were certainly tensions within the Milan management or disappointment over some player purchases or sales.
Maldini is Milan's history, ever since his father Cesare was there, and I don't think the fans will ever forget him. He was an icon on the pitch, and in his managerial role he ensured that Milan returned to winning ways, but what happened behind the scenes is a mystery.

Roma is currently 3 points ahead of Inter in the table and they will have the home advantage, but bookies would still see Inter as a slight favourite.
Inter has an incredible average of almost 3 goals scored per league game, that ratio for Roma is only 1.2 goals per game. But Roma has conceded only 2 goals in 6 games, whereas Inter has conceded 7. But I wouldn't be putting too much weight on such stats that early in the season, as they could give a distorted picture.
I don't like betting on Serie A because in games like this one, anything can happen and we might as well see Roma winning by a high margin. If I had to bet, I'd probably put a small wager on a draw, or a double chance bet on Roma.

[Lillominato89]

I believe this big match will give us lots of excitement, I can feel it! Inter are coming off a period of excellent performances, while Roma are at the top of the table alongside Napoli.
We have all the ingredients for a very interesting big match.
Given Inter and Roma's great scoring form, I would personally bet on both teams scoring.
