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

[Distraction]

Winter break is upon us and personally I think Serie A is the best European championship right now with top 6 being super tight on points and literally everyone from top 5 can win Serie A this year. Hopefully , Lazio will be able to gather more points in the next coming games and find a way to be in top 6 because otherwise , it will be pretty tough for them to play in European competitions next year.

Also , I think it's time to actually believe that Fiorentina will relegate in Serie B right ? I've watched them playing on Sunday against Verona and I must say Fiorentina deserves to be on last place and if they don't wake up soon , they will go in Serie B for sure.

The Serie A is really the best about one thing among top European leagues: The most number of teams in the title race. 

However something is still missing in this puzzle to me. I mean the teams in this race aren't generally impressive enough to me. Even the big matches aren't enjoyable as much as the PL and La Liga.

I just link this to the player quality of those teams. Currently Inter has the best squad clearly. I see holes in the rest. Especially in Roma and Juventus...

I think Inter will win it this year. They failed to win everything last season even though they were very close, lost to Milan here, and lost the title to Napoli and lost UCL finals, basically they got close to all of it and then lost.

I think they will want a trophy already, and for that reason they will fight tooth and nail to get this win. Plus they have the easiest of games, they are playing against Bologna and they should be able to get a win out of that without breaking a sweat. Obviously underestimating your opponent could result with bad results, but because they want a trophy so much, I do not think they will underestimate and get a good win, could be even a high margin of victory just in case for them.

Inter Milan are not in the same form as last season, although they are still good in terms of team strength. They have already found the top spot in Serie A, now they just have to maintain consistency. Last season they lost the Scudetto because of the importance they gave to the Champions League and eventually lost in the Champions League final. It is certainly painful to end the season without winning a trophy even after coming so close to two titles. They have a good chance of winning the Scudetto this season, maybe they will. It is not possible to say anything about the Champions League right now.

Of course you're right, Como shouldn't worry if they lose a match against a big team like Roma, but that shouldn't be an excuse because they fought with all their might against other big teams like Milan, Inter, Juventus and Napoli, and yet despite everything they are in a position in the table where they can aspire to participate in a European competition. And in my opinion, they have to hold on to this goal despite being new to Serie A.

I am sure they will, being fifth or sixth will get them Europa or conference league and that will happen for them I think. It is not that impossible and could happen as long as they keep on fighting.

They do not have to beat all the big teams, like even if they lose to all top four teams, as long as they get wins mostly against other smaller teams, they will be fine. Unfortunately for them, they do not get 100% win rate for teams that are lower than them, so they are not doing wonderful but the possibility is there.

Parma don't deserve to be in the Serie A, they should be relegated.  A team that was lucky to play with Lazio, which has been reduced to nine men. The first red card was in the first half, while the other was in the 77th minute. Yet they ended up losing the game at home before their home fans. This is shameful that Parma couldn't even get a point. Good game from Lazio and congratulations to them for this hard-fought and well-deserved victory.

Lazio football team played last match against Parma Calcio football team and that was good match because we saw only 1 goal in this match. Noslin was a player who tried to do goal in this match but no person could do any goal in this match. The stats of Lazio football team was osum as their shots were 13 in this match and 4 shots were on target. The possession percentage of that team was excellent in this match which was 53 percent and  they tried to possess ball for more time and they could not do more than 1 goal in this match and opponent team could not do any goal in this match. The players of Lazio team were confident and they gave great effort and that is reason they won at the end.

I had no doubts, never had any about Serie A
In the end, there are always many and different teams fighting to win the Serie A title here.
Let's say that in my opinion it's the most difficult and beautiful championship in the world
then obviously I'm Italian so my opinion is biased..

In my personal opinion, the difference between teams in Serie A and the EPL or La Liga probably lies in the quality of their players. By that, I mean that the teams currently competing for the Serie A title are on the same level. This means that there isn't one or two teams dominating the league. In domestic matches, every match will be interesting because the top teams aren't that different in quality. However, when compared to the quality of big teams in other leagues like the EPL or La Liga, the difference becomes stark. While Inter Milan, Napoli, or AC Milan are the highest-quality teams, when compared to teams like Arsenal, Manchester City, Real Madrid, or Barcelona, ​​I think people would prefer those teams over Serie A teams.

Since the 1970s, Serie A has been the most exciting league in the world, the most difficult by far, and one where there have always been three or four contenders.
We have lost some of our appeal over the years, but the result has never changed! It is the most exciting league in the world.
La Liga? It has always had a maximum of two contenders (Real Madrid and Barcelona).
Ligue 1? Only PSG in the last 20 years.
The Bundesliga? Only Bayern Munich.
The Premier League? A maximum of three: Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea. In the past, there was also Manchester United, but it has now been outclassed.

Also , I think it's time to actually believe that Fiorentina will relegate in Serie B right ? I've watched them playing on Sunday against Verona and I must say Fiorentina deserves to be on last place and if they don't wake up soon , they will go in Serie B for sure.

Fiorentina will likely be relegated to Serie B due to their low points tally and their inability to escape the relegation zone in the second half. Fiorentina's performance this season has been dismal, as if a small team newly promoted to Serie A, despite being a major club and consistently competing for the Serie A title. Last season, Fiorentina finished mid-table and performed exceptionally well in both Serie A and Europe. Therefore, fans will undoubtedly be disappointed to see Fiorentina relegated to Serie B.

You're right, Lillominato, apart from the Premier League I don't think there's a championship in the world as complicated as the Italian one.
But I have to say that this season the Premier League has some new features.
In Italy it is very difficult to make predictions, impossible in some ways

Zero win from 15 matches this really bad for them, and I never expect they will be bad like this. But, they are still have a chance to go out from current position as far as in the second half ot the season their performance getting better. To achieve this, management must set to choose better coach, and bring in better players. But, this way will need a lot of money, and I don't think new players will accept their offer easily, because bring fiorentina out from relegation zone can be hard mission, and new player will gamble with his decision because for now 50% possibility for Fiorentina to be relegated already, if they are being relegated maybe new players  who come from winter transfer, their value will be decreased if want to leave at the end of season.

Yes, indeed, the Premier League and La Liga are considered to have far greater club strength. Likewise, in the UCL, teams from both leagues are always the favorites to win. However, that doesn't mean Serie A teams can't compete. Inter Milan, in particular, is a top Serie A team that has reached the top of the UCL, but compared to other leagues, they don't achieve it as often.

Anyway, the Supercoppa Italiana has ended with Napoli's 2-0 victory over AC Milan.

Milan played a goalless game this time, which cost them the title. Hojlund and David Neres scored in each half.

It's been 15 games without a win, with only points from 6 draws. It's really unfortunate to see Fiorentina like this. Fiorentina is a big club, and if there's no change, they could even be relegated, which would make a lot of people sad. This is the worst phase Fiorentina is going through.
I agree that there is still the second half of the season for Fiorentina to bounce back and climb out of this position. I wonder if Fiorentina's current situation is due to Pioli being the coach, or if there are other factors at play, as when Vanoli arrived, his first match with Fiorentina ended in a draw, and the second match also ended in a draw.

Rasmus Hojlund is proving to be the player we once knew at Atalanta, the goals are come for him now and even his contributions in the field of play have been very superb. We all know how most players excel after leaving Manchester United and this Hojlund case is proving again that something is actually wrong at Manchester United.

It was a good game yesterday, both teams played very well but I would say Napoli showed they wanted it more and they got 2 important goals that have now boot them for the final of the super cup. They would face either inter Milan or bologna who will play later today. For sure it going to be another exiting match and I really anticipate this one too.

This match shows how Milan is focused exclusively on the league.
It has just abandoned any secondary objectives to devote itself entirely to the league.
Honestly, I don't like this Italian Super Cup format at all.
It's an Italian competition played on foreign soil that only tires the players' legs.
It was more appealing before this format change.

yes exactly, I thought the same thing
Massimiliano Allegri is not stupid, he weighed the team and surely understood that he cannot fight on two fronts
so he chose
I've noticed that the championship alone is really putting Milan to the test.
and HE'S NOT PLAYING CUPS think about it

[emrecemsan]

Hojlund would do better only when he has KDB as the one who could give him easy and accurate pass. He looks so struggle and less dangeours without someone who can pass the ball to him like KDB. Hojlund consistently scored when KDB was fit, but after he missed KDB, he looks so lose.

Nevertheless, i don't think even replacing him with Lukaku will help a lot due to the amounts of injury faced by Napoli.

Lukaku's performance is also depending on KDB technically. But he has a serious physical advantage over Højlund at the same time. This could help him be more effective than Højlund at least.

This is an assumption though. He has been out for a long time. I don't know his current condition physically. Conte needs him and will hope for a quick recovery. But still the absence of KDB and Anguissa would be felt quite much.

Don't touch Lukaku, please, this guy is a professional and he's committed.
In my opinion he's psychologically ok, tempered by many matches and a deep experience.
He has to recover physically, he's no longer a young man, he's his age and in fact he's starting to get injured a lot

but he still has a lot to give!

I agree that there is still the second half of the season for Fiorentina to bounce back and climb out of this position. I wonder if Fiorentina's current situation is due to Pioli being the coach, or if there are other factors at play, as when Vanoli arrived, his first match with Fiorentina ended in a draw, and the second match also ended in a draw.

Last time Pioli at Milan, he failed to give better strategy for Milan, and it's happened again when he signed contract wit Fiorentina. I can assume Pioli one of the factor but Fiotentina also need to improve their squad before it too late. Winter transfer only the chance for them to improve or bring another coach that capable to save fiorentina at least from relegation zone. if no solutions, we have to say good bye to fiorentina.

Any team can be bad for a season, and sure Fiorentina will recover from this and go back to Serie A after one or two seasons at most. However, zero wins out of fifteen games is a terrible one, there is bad and there is terrible, this is terrible. If they won 2 more games instead of losing, they would be still relegating, so they are not just relegating they are getting humiliated at the moment. They have to take a look at the team, get rid of all the players who are running out of contract, and try to find buyers for everyone else.

The best case for them would be getting rid of every single player above age of 21 and just rebuild the team from scratch, even if it means they stay in Serie B for 2 seasons instead of 1.
