Bologna are playing really well at the moment, but I think Inter just decided not to fight in the Cup. Just like Napoli, only Napoli did it blatantly. Now top clubs have other tasks in domestic leagues and Champions League. So they don't need the extra pressure.

Extra pressure is not needed by the top teams at this time because on the one hand they also want to protect their players for the more crucial matches this season. But in general, all teams will definitely not ignore their wins against any team because every win will always result in more points and make them stronger in the top position. We can see an example in the Bologna team who are currently in the top four of the standings thanks to their own determination in winning the match.

Bolognas strength currently doesn't look to me like it's going to last long enough so I don't really trust them even with this their recent performance which looks like they are in a good form, although the season has gone a long way already such that it can be said that maintaining it long enough will be easy for them through the season.

Napoli, inter Milan and Juventus needs to watch out for bologna because they may gradually overtake them to the top but then I doubt if teams like inter Milan will just let such happen easily because they want to win the league title aswell regardless of their participating in the UCL aswell, Juventus is also chasing to get the league title aswell which is definitely priority to them because they have no other competition they are participating in, bologna may just end up amongst the top five by the end of the season.

We don't know that yet, we just have to keep on accessing the situation and how they go until tue last few games of the season. They could do better and improve their house things can as well go sideways but we'll seen. They'll be against Atalanta who won four goals to one during the last game. I'm suspecting they would share points against Atalanta.

For Frosinone against Juventus, let's see how they try to repeat that same score against Juventus. They got to trash Napoli during the cup games. I want to see if they're strong enough to run down Juventus defense with four goals. Difficult for them ain't it?

Regardless of whether it was intentional or not, it was still quite disturbing to lose so badly even in a match that didn't really matter against a club that was weaker than them in every way, which was quite disappointing and a disgrace for a big club.

Indeed, for their reasons in this case it is quite understandable because the current situation they are still not very good in Serie A and prefer to look for better opportunities, namely the Champions League and Serie A rather than the Italian Cup but if this is deliberately losing with an embarrassing score like this I think something is not too wrong in the body of Napoli even though we know most of the players are young players who are given more opportunities to show their skills on the field.

I'm sure a lot of people have lost faith in Napoli this season, the way they were eliminated in the Coppa Italia cannot be accepted by common sense. How could the goal margin reach 4-0, that is very embarrassing and raises a lot of questions. Choosing to be eliminated in the Italian Cup is not a good idea, because who knows, that is the most realistic trophy that can be achieved this season.

Mazzarri is not a good successor in replacing Garcia, in fact I think Garcia quality is still better than him. This is what most people worry about, that changing coaches does not guarantee that everything will be better, Mazzarri proved this to be true by making Napoli lose one competition.

In Serie A, I think Napoli only has a chance to finish in the UCL zone, while talking about defending the Scudetto is over. I mean it is no longer possible to catch up on points from Inter, especially if Napoli management releases Osimhen in the January transfer window, that will be a setback for Napoli.

Talking about doubts actually in this case I saw from the beginning when Spalleti left that many doubted Napoli because they would experience a transition and it did happen and after a few games done at the beginning of the season towards the middle of the season now it continues and surely the doubts continue to grow as time goes by.

Napoli currently have a very small chance of retaining their Scudetto especially with their current form but on the other hand there could be a miracle by expecting a lot of instability for some of the big clubs above them while they improve themselves even though it is mission impossible.
But even so, their target to be in the Champions League next season must at least be maintained even if they cannot defend the Scudetto they got last season.

Bologna has been doing an awesome job in their recent matches, and they seem super excited about winning. However, reaching the second spot in the Serie A competition might be a bit tricky. You see, the teams at the very top of the table, like Inter Milan and Juventus, have a pretty big lead in points. It's like they're way ahead in a race, and catching up could be tough.

Sure, Bologna is putting in a lot of effort and staying consistent, but Inter Milan and Juventus are not slacking off either. They also really, really want to win the Serie A this season. Now, you mentioned that if Bologna keeps up their fantastic playing style until the end of the season, they might end up in the top four of the Serie A table.

I agree if the top teams in Serie A must be careful when they play against Bologna. This team often made difficulty for the top teams to get full points. They could get a draw against Juventus, Inter Milan, and Napoli. And they even could beat Lazio and AS Roma. The top teams in Serie A can't underestimate Bologna, they are very unpredictable.

Sure, it won't be easy to overtake AC Milan, Juventus, and Inter Milan. The point gap is quite large and Bologna seems not to always perform convincingly in every match. However, it is true that the chance to finish in the top 4 (UCL zone) is not impossible. Moreover, the teams like Napoli, Fiorentina, Atalanta, Lazio, and AS Roma performed very unstable. So, it just increased the chance for Bologna to survive in the top 4 of Serie A standings.

For me, Atalanta still looks to be the better team even though Bologna is ahead of them for some reason. I have no idea why I feel that way but I just feel that way and I think it is going to be quite tough to make sure that it is not going to be all that easy, and we need to make sure that it is going to be something acceptable. I get that it is not going to be all that easy for Atalanta to win this game but I believe they might.

This is of course personal opinion and I will bet on them to win but there is a big chance that I could be wrong. The whole world thinks that they are quite equally matched and a tie wouldn't shock anyone, they are playing against each other at a point in time when they both look like they are at the same level.

there was a season in which my beloved Atalanta also went to the Champions League, don't underestimate this team
Now it's in the reconstruction cycle, it does this like a sort of rubber band with the aim of strengthening itself more and more
For a while he went up and down from Serie B to Serie A

At least, from the results of away matches so far this season too, at least Atalanta does not have quite good results because after all, of the 8 away matches of Atalanta so far. In fact, Atalanta only get 3 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses and about Bologna's 8 home matches so far this season. In fact, Bologna managed to make 6 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss.

With a record like that, I think it's natural, if for example Bologna is still quite favored in this match. But indeed, although Bologna is still quite favored, it will not be easy and does not fully guarantee Bologna to win. But related to these factors, at least I am still confident that Bologna is unlikely to be easily defeated by Atalanta and thus, I will still choose Bologna in this match.

Two weeks ago Roma managed to be in the top 4 but they failed to maintain that place and had to be dropped in 8th place in the standings. This was because they achieved two less than optimal results in the previous match, such as losing to Bologna and also drawing against Fiorentina. Roma's current position is very much in decline this week because they only have a 2 point advantage over Torino and they could go down again this week.

It's not easy for Roma because their next opponent is Napoli and even though Napoli have not been consistent so far, they will also try to steal 3 points at home to Roma and at the same time put them in the top 4 by overtaking Bologna. In this match, I'm not sure Roma will win and it might be a narrow victory for Napoli.

In fact, I dont understand what happened, why Roma had such an incredible decline in terms of performance in terms of victories
we have had difficult matches, without a doubt, but the drop is very strong I must say
difficult match only?

Atalanta performance in this season not better than Bologna success break out to the top fourth standings, in domestic league performance Bologna get better result with two losses regarding with Atalanta got losses 6 of 16 matches. Current position Bologna on the higher standing remaining two points left and have been qualified to quarter final round in Copa Italia. Few hours later, Atalanta will face Sassuolo and lest waiting result the match will Atalanta qualify to quarter final round or have eliminate by Sassuolo.

Both teams Atalanta and Bologna can improving their current position standing and not close with Atalanta will raise higher position from bologna because Serie A get many matches left.

In this match, I'm not sure Roma will win and it might be a narrow victory for Napoli.

The reason why Roma drop down below 4th position in the Italy serie A because, some of their players were experiencing some injuries that made those games not to go well the way it went to make Roma team look like weak team in this season. Roma will be my favorite team in this game and they have squads that will make way when there is no way in this game just to achieve victory from Napoli that will make people to believe that they are not far from 3rd position in the Italy serie A table.

Since Napoli have some problem that is not yet solve by their coach and is causing Napoli not to come close to second position and first position because, Inter and Juventus are occupied those positions and they are very ready to ment For final if they can maintain their consistent winning.

This reason is true and yes, several players such as Paulo Dybala and Tammy Abraham are still injured. Moreover, Lukaku's absence due to a red card in the match against Fiorentina also reduces the strength of the attack line. It is clear that Roma's attack has become duller due to the loss of several key players and it looks like Lukaku will still be absent from the match against Napoli and will be available again in the match against Juventus.

Napoli will not be able to enter the competition this season because not only do they have a big gap with Inter but they are also starting to lose what they had last season and just being able to get a place in the Champions League next season is already their best achievement.

@Davian144 I definitely agree with you. Inter Milan is chilling at the top of Serie A with 4 points clear and looks like the contender who will win the Scudetto this season. I believe their current focus is on Serie A and Uefa Champions League.

But what they have shown against Bologna is truly impressive. Most of the starting players were not main team players and they were able to head to head against Bologna. They were looking dominating and even got the lead in the extra 30 minutes of the game. I think it is good how Inter Milan is looking right now.

Bologna on the other hand needs to be given the credit. Bologna is looking very good this season and is currently in the top 4 of Serie A. Bologna may even end up playing in the Champions League. Such underdog runs are always appreciated by me. I hope to see them lifting the Copa Italia this season. Their next game is against strong Fiorentina.

In this match, I'm not sure Roma will win and it might be a narrow victory for Napoli.

It is my opinion that Roma will find it extremely difficult to move up in the league table given that they lost the chance to drop to fourth place. Napoli, on the other hand, is currently in fifth place with Bologna leading the team by just one point. I believe Napoli will not want to let this happen, even though I am aware of their occasional struggles, but Roma's performance is not as strong as Napoli's, and their players especially Osimhen is in excellent form right now.

But I've been wondering: Is it because Lukaku and Dybala aren't playing for Roma anymore because I haven't seen their performance like it used to be? It's been like five games since I last saw Lukaku score goals, and he's Roma's star player. Did something happen to Lukaku and Dybala because their performance isn't as good as it used to be? Roma's performance is looking pretty bad because they were in position 4 before and are now in position 8, which is extremely poor.

Roma had some hard fixtures for the previous 2 games. Fiorentina and Bologna both are relatively strong teams right now. One of them are sitting on 4th position and another is sitting on 6th position. So basically Roma has 3 fixtures in a row with 3 good teams and they might drop points in these 3 points but that doesn't mean that they are a bad team.

But Roma also needs to gather some points in these matches as well to fight for the UCL spot or UEL spot. Napoli right now is not looking very good. They had massive defeat against Frosinone in Copa Italia Yesterday. If Roma can play their cards right, they can win the game.

As for Lukaku, he just scored in the match against Fiorentina. He also got red card in that match so he couldn't play against Bologna. Dybala is injured as well. So that means their key players are absent. But that doesn't mean Roma will be weak forever. As I have said, if they play their cards right, they can win that 3 points against Napoli.

Bologna vs Atlanta will be one of the tighter matches in this seventeenth week apart from the Roma vs Napoli match.
Both teams get almost the same odds, Bologna @2.78 and Atlanta @2.79 with a draw of around @3.37 and each bookie gives different odds but all of them favor Bologna as the home team to win this match.
The two teams are in conditions that are not much different and in the last two matches both managed to win, also in these two wins, one was obtained when facing a weak team, and the other was obtained when facing a team whose strength could be said to be the same, Bologna beat Roma and Atlanta convincingly beat AC Milan.
This will be a match that is quite difficult to predict, only Bologna who is playing at home will get full support from the spectators, only if something unexpected happens it is very possible for the away team to win because Atlanta is also trying to improve their ranking which is quite far from top fourth because of the previous two consecutive defeats.

Exactly, it's rather difficult to predict this match because both are in the same situation the distinguishing things are home team and away team but I don't think it has a significant impact. Talking about the chances I really can't predict it's just that I suspect there will be 3 goals or more in this game, on the one hand Bologna wants to stay in the top 4 while Atalanta wants to take a place there both teams have the same ambition and luck will determine how the final results. Oh yah, the two teams might score each other so it's an interesting option to place a bet no matter who will win clearly the two teams scored each other.

For me, Atalanta still looks to be the better team even though Bologna is ahead of them for some reason. I have no idea why I feel that way but I just feel that way and I think it is going to be quite tough to make sure that it is not going to be all that easy, and we need to make sure that it is going to be something acceptable. I get that it is not going to be all that easy for Atalanta to win this game but I believe they might.

This is of course personal opinion and I will bet on them to win but there is a big chance that I could be wrong. The whole world thinks that they are quite equally matched and a tie wouldn't shock anyone, they are playing against each other at a point in time when they both look like they are at the same level.

With the current situation, it is very difficult for Napoli to maintain their situation as the current defending champions.
Napoli is currently still very difficult to maintain its current consistency and performance even though there have been several improvements including the change of coach that has occurred but indeed this is still a fairness when talking about the Scudetto in Serie A.
Until now since the last few seasons the club that won Serie A has never been able to go back to back to get the Scudetto after prime Juventus until the 2020 season until now no one has been able to last for several seasons for the Scudetto including Inter, Milan and Napoli who took turns every season in the last 3 seasons.

Napoli chances are now only possible to be in the top 4 and must try to appear there because it would be very bad if they failed to qualify for the Champions League next season after previously winning very convincingly.

Napoli have lost several important matches in Serie A and that has made their chances of retaining the championship increasingly slim. However, because this is mid-season and the UCL schedule requires Napoli to work harder and save the energy of their players. Choose to focus on the UCL competition or try to improve their performance in Serie A. There is no choice for Napoli now but to focus on the Domestic League, after all they still have the same time and remaining matches as the top teams. A minimum of 4 or being able to finish in 3 is already a good opportunity. Competing with Bologna is Napoli's main target at the moment, for Mazzarri I hope he can improve the club a little because since his arrival there has been nothing more interesting to show to the fans who still haven't moved on from Spalletti.

Actually looking at what they did especially after relinquishing the Italian Cup then the focus must be on both although it's still very risky for them but i think they will still try to appear in Serie A and the Champions League.
The match against Barcelona in the round of 16 is actually a replay of the Europa League 2 last season and I think the similarities are still there because both clubs now still can't improve themselve well this season.

Barcelona still have the advantage and will definitely be favored but the match is still quite long and there is still enough time for Mazzari to be able to strengthen further the situation of Napoli now especially maybe some changes in the transfer window which will open soon.
On the other hand for Serie A also now their task is still very heavy because even if in the end they are not able to compete for the Scudetto but they must still try to be in the Champions League zone next season.

Inter Milan have undoubtedly been the most consistent Italian team both in the Italian Serie A and in the UEFA Champions League competition since the start of the season but with their performance against Bologna in their Coppa Italia game yesterday at the San Siro, I think Simone Inzaghi's team are probably not interested in the Italian league cup trophy this season.

Though it's absolutely possible for them to win the UEFA Champions League, Italian Serie A and the Coppa Italia just like they did in 2009/10 season but I think they've decided to focus more on the UEFA Champions League and the Italian Serie A as it'll be more energy consuming for them to want to win the three competitions.

AS Roma are prone to dropping points and it's been that way for seasons, they haven't been able to make themselves stronger and more promising with each game. The arrival of Jose Mourinho did make them better, but they are not that good and strong. The competition in Serie A every season has become very tight, some clubs that initially lost consistency are now able to improve on that, making the competitive level of the league even better.
Inter Milan for example, this season they have become stronger than before, Juventus have also experienced the same improvement after several seasons they also had difficulties and had to lose the competition. If AS Roma cannot improve themselves then they will really lose the opportunity to be able to compete in the top flight.

Two weeks ago Roma managed to be in the top 4 but they failed to maintain that place and had to be dropped in 8th place in the standings. This was because they achieved two less than optimal results in the previous match, such as losing to Bologna and also drawing against Fiorentina. Roma's current position is very much in decline this week because they only have a 2 point advantage over Torino and they could go down again this week.

It's not easy for Roma because their next opponent is Napoli and even though Napoli have not been consistent so far, they will also try to steal 3 points at home to Roma and at the same time put them in the top 4 by overtaking Bologna. In this match, I'm not sure Roma will win and it might be a narrow victory for Napoli.

I think Roma can get back into the top four of the standings at any time, because they are only 3 points different from Bologna who are in 4th position. Of course Roma can't lose any more points in the next match, but as you said the next match against Napoli is clearly not a job which is easy to secure full points. Napoli certainly wants to overtake Bologna and the only way is to beat Mourinho squad.

The competition at the top of the Serie A standings is only for the UCL zone position, because Inter and Juventus are currently in a comfortable position with a difference in points. Mourinho again lost several important players, which is why Roma lost their last two matches. Even though the match will be held at Roma headquarters, I agree with you that Napoli seems to have a better chance of bringing home the 3 points.

It is my opinion that Roma will find it extremely difficult to move up in the league table given that they lost the chance to drop to fourth place. Napoli, on the other hand, is currently in fifth place with Bologna leading the team by just one point. I believe Napoli will not want to let this happen, even though I am aware of their occasional struggles, but Roma's performance is not as strong as Napoli's, and their players especially Osimhen is in excellent form right now.

But I've been wondering: Is it because Lukaku and Dybala aren't playing for Roma anymore because I haven't seen their performance like it used to be? It's been like five games since I last saw Lukaku score goals, and he's Roma's star player. Did something happen to Lukaku and Dybala because their performance isn't as good as it used to be? Roma's performance is looking pretty bad because they were in position 4 before and are now in position 8, which is extremely poor.

Bologna are playing really well at the moment, but I think Inter just decided not to fight in the Cup. Just like Napoli, only Napoli did it blatantly. Now top clubs have other tasks in domestic leagues and Champions League. So they don't need the extra pressure.

Extra pressure is not needed by the top teams at this time because on the one hand they also want to protect their players for the more crucial matches this season. But in general, all teams will definitely not ignore their wins against any team because every win will always result in more points and make them stronger in the top position. We can see an example in the Bologna team who are currently in the top four of the standings thanks to their own determination in winning the match.

If Inter really weren't looking for a win in that Coppa Italia match against Bolgna, then I don't think Inter should have had a big effort in that match either. Because ya, after all, the fact is that the match also ended in extra minutes and in fact, Inter still had a good dominance in this match and also Inter manages make a goal first. Therefore, basically Inter are still trying to be able to beat Bologna in this match and not completely like Napoli which is very bad.

With results like that, then I personally believe that at this moment Bologna really has a very good trend. Because if not, then Bologna would not have managed to beat Inter and also not be in the top four in the current Serie A standings. So ya, with Bologna's success at this moment, then I believe Bologna will be a team that can compete well in the top four this season compared to AS Roma.
