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

[*Ace*]

With their victory against Pisa, Juventus climbed to second place, level with Milan.
But beware, Inter Milan and Napoli have two games in hand. So they will first have to make up for the games they haven't played. However, Juventus are currently second in the table, and I have been saying for some time that Juventus will rise from their problems with the arrival of Spalletti.

I honestly don't think Cremonese vs Napoli will be a particularly exciting match! It's the classic match that will bring three points to the stronger team.
Atalanta vs Inter will definitely be a great match to watch and enjoy some entertainment.
As for the rest, they'll all be deadly boring.

Look, Cremonese is a very aggressive team, they could even draw or win.
A team not to be underestimated, along with Sassuolo.
Two years ago Inter lost only 2 games, against Sassuolo (later relegated to Serie B)
I remember and this make me smile so much

Yes, I am underestimating Cremonese, but on paper they are much weaker than Napoli, whose goal is to defend their Italian championship title!
Who knows? Maybe Cremonese will wish Napoli a happy new year in advance, haha, but I highly doubt it. Today we will learn the truth.

After watching a really boring first half I doubted Juventus for once honestly.    But thankfully they shifted up later on and didn't upset the gamblers who bet on them.

Kenan Yıldız was once again one of the bests of his team. He is already the most valuable player of Juventus not only in price tag but also performance.

Juventus are 3rd now by the way because of Milan's score difference advantage. They are likely to go down again.

Yea, all teams challenging for the scudetto won their matches and I was feeling either Napoli or inter Milan would drop points since they would be playing away from home. Well it was a good game from all side and to my biggest surprise they all manage to keep clean sheet in this week fixture.

AC Milan started the day with an early kick off, they hosted Verona, they struggled a bit in the early hours of the but got a goal towards the end of ten first half,  they were in total control in the second half as Nkuku got a double. It was a good game from the host.

Later on Napoli travelled to Cremonese and I was thinking they would struggled in this game but 2 goals from Hojlund was able to make things more easy for them and they walked back to Naples with all points.

Atalanta ended the day as they host inter Milan but a win for inter Milan puts them back at the table, they are looking more like a team that don’t want to drop from that first position. It was a good and entertaining game.

I thought I wasn’t going to place any bets until the New Year so I could take a break, but I ended up betting on Napoli to win ^{and I wasn’t wrong}. Their performance earned them 3 points and boosted my bankroll.

BTW, Napoli’s win also improved my betting statistics for Serie A matches. I’ve now made 26 bets and achieved around  69% win rate, compared to the previous 68%.

One thing that gives Inter the edge if they end up with the same number of points as Milan and Napoli is their success in scoring goals. After the 16th match, which they won by a narrow margin of 0-1 against Atalanta, Inter also won in terms of the number of goals scored by the top three teams.

Inter +/- 35-14 | GD +21
Milan +/- 27-13 | GD +14
Napoli +/- 24-13 | GD +11

It's not just the Nerazzurri facing a tough schedule; Napoli is too.

Inter Milan and Napoli have played their matches which were 2 matches behind Juventus and both of them won their matches and they still have 1 more match to equalize with Juventus so historically the points difference with Juventus is further if the top three teams have played 17 matches, now Juventus position has shifted to 4th place after beating Roma but if Roma plays the 17th match tomorrow against Genoa and wins it then Juventus will be shifted again, even though Juventus looks to have risen but needs to chase the points if they want to finish in the top 5 this season.

Of course, Juventus needs to continue with their brilliant performance if they want to finish on top forum because this is the second phase of the season whereby, more matches are to be played before the end of the season.

Napoli will win their match against Genoa and that will shift Juventus to 5th position. The competition this time is difficult to determine which of these clubs will finish on top four at the end of the season.

In matchday 17, all of the top 4 teams have won their games, so we have no changes at the top of the table.
Inter had the toughest rival, they faced Atalanta in an away game, but they did pretty well. It was a minimal win, with the only goal scored after a big mistake made by Atalanta's defence, but Inter did pretty well defensively, not allowing Atalanta to make a single shot on target throughout the whole game.
The only scorer was Lautaro Martínez, for whom it was a 5th goal in the last 4 games. He is now leading the top scorer ranking with 9 goals on his account.

The last game of the round is to be played this evening. 5th Roma will take on 17th Genoa at home. Roma is obviously the favourite here, but they haven't been doing that great recently, as they lost 3 out of their last 5 games in the league, so I wouldn't be very shocked if they fail to win tonight.

Inter were more comfortable against Atalanta than I thought. Only after Lautaro's goal Atalanta started to show some better performance but still not enough to score. In this way it's too difficult for them to even qualify for a tournament.  

How do you see Milan and Napoli on chasing down Inter this season? I still think Inter will find some good level of gap to them at a point in the standings. Even though Chivu isn't ready for big matches completely he still does a good job in the rest of the matches.

Inter's upcoming fixture is not that difficult. Inter can bag three points from Bologna and Parma except Napoli, which needs extra effort. The last time they lost to Bologna in supercoppa. So it can motivate them to do revenge, and bag three points. Meanwhile, parma is easy fixtures, it should not be counted. However, the crucial game must be against Napoli.
Losing to the napoli means they will be widen gap to the competitors. that's why they have to get at least draw. three points from Bologna & Parma, then share point with Napoli. That may be the possible scenario.

Milan won, Napoli won and Inter won.
I had no doubts about Inter, I had hope about Cremonese but in the end it didn't happen.
It would have been doubly beautiful for me, Cremonese had won and Antonio Conte had lost.

Juventus are currently fourth in the table, of course, thanks to the fact that Roma still have their 17th match to play! Today, they will even the score by playing against Genoa. But this has put pressure on Roma because they now have to win if they want to keep fourth place in the table.

Inter, Milan, and Napoli won their games and managed to maintain their top positions, causing Juventus to fall back to 4th place. Their position also depends on Roma losing today to stay there. If Roma wins today, Juventus will fall to 5th. At this moment, Juventus's position depends on Roma's performance.

If in the next round the top 3 teams lose, and Juventus wins, then we could see a scenario with some hope that Juventus could finish in a good position. However, unfortunately, the current scenario is not good for Juventus; they need to continue winning games and at the same time hope that the top 3 teams drop points.

Inter's victory was not so obvious! It is true that Atalanta is not the same team as last year, but they still have a strong and competitive squad. Inter struggled throughout the match and only won it in the final minutes! But the result was in the balance for the entire match.
Unfortunately, Cremonese had no chance of winning yesterday; the result was a foregone conclusion.

Betting on these big teams at the moment is easy, because they are doing a fine job and they are at the top for a reason and betting on them to win is easy. Obviously not all of them win every single game but the moment right now is for them to win so that they can keep up, otherwise it is going to be very tough for them to keep up.

With this in mind I think we are seeing things being very good for the top three at the moment and shouldn't be worried about how we can change it for the better. What we need to do is keep on betting parlay on these clubs and most of the time we are going to win, of course not every week, some weeks we are going to lose but at least it is going to be a lot better return without a doubt.

Roma vs Genoa match is about to finish. Roma got the job done in the first half and made it 3–0. Genoa just scored a goal and the score is now 3–1.

It was an easier match for Roma than I expected, and they earned a comfortable victory. They had only one win in their last four league matches, so this win was important for them and they are still in the title race.

[Lillominato89]

Roma are also living up to expectations, winning 3-1 against Genoa.
With this victory, Roma and Gasperini regain fourth place in the table.

The race for the Scudetto is becoming increasingly interesting this season.

I think it was since the early 2000s that we hadn't seen such a balanced and uncertain championship.
