1-1 between Juventus and Genoa after 50 mins, not a good feeling.

No doubt that Napoli has a stronger squad. I think Cagliari is just a small team in Serie A. Napoli shouldn't have a problem to beat Cagliari although they have a new coach. Mazzarri must know well how to deal with a team like Cagliari. It should be an easy match for him, I think we can predict it easily when it is against small team.

We can't easily conclude it because Napoli faced strong teams lately. I think Napoli must play more consistently if they play against average teams in Serie A. It become very difficult for Mazzarri because he must face 2 strongest teams in Serie A in the last 2 matches (Inter Milan and Juventus). I think we don't need to feel worried because they are defeated by 2 strongest teams.

Only two teams are fighting for the Serie A title this season. Apart from Inter Milan and Juventus, the other teams are far behind in the title race. AC Milan performed very well at the beginning of the season, but now Milan's performance is very erratic. On the other hand, Juventus and Inter Milan teams are consistently performing well. However, the Inter Milan team is ahead of Juventus. Because Inter Milan's attack is very strong this season. They scored 37 goals in 15 matches. On the other hand, Juventus players scored 23 goals. For this reason, my Inter Milan team seems to be the most favorite and deserving of this season's title so far.

Tonight? Lol. Genoa would even be the one forcing the old ladies to share points with them tonight if they fail to take good use of them chances. I'm also suspecting Inter Milan to drop points this weekend after a strong fixture against Real Sociedad in the Champions League final game in the group stage. I'm predicting they'll share points and end up playing a fulltime draw. Genoa are troublesome whenever Juventus face them at home, they have been tipped to score a goal in this game because they have done that in the last five games Juventus have visited them. Who will help deliver em tonight since they lack capacity scoring goals. Moise Kean, Dusan Vlahovic and Kostic all are qualified for that but haven't bailed Juventus this season.

They shouldn't fail to make additions into their squad and it's mandatory the additions are meant to be attacking minded players who can score goals and create chances for them.

The difference in squad depth makes Napoli more favored rather than Cagliari. Apart from that, it would also be very bad for Walter Mazzarri if in the end Napoli lost at home, and of course it would be very surprising and disappointing for the supporters Napoli. On the other side, I think Victor Osimhen will do his best performance against Cagliari, considering that currently there are rumors about him, which are this a great striker will sign a new deal with Napoli. So Cagliari chances of getting points are getting small, because Osimhen is expected to score lots of goals.

In another match, in a few minutes we will see Juventus gameplay against Genoa. I have a very high hopes for Juventus victory tonight. Apart from betting on them, I would like to see Juventus at the top for a while.

Inter are lucky in many ways, and we must highlight that Jevuntus also faces a slightly complicated situation. Pogba doping scandal and Nicolo Fagioli gambling scandal were a blow to Alleggri in addition to player injury problems. But Juventus is still capable of putting pressure on Inter, which is what really interests us all at the moment.

Soon the january transfer window will reopen, and I think Alleggri has several names to target when building his squad in the second half of the season. Management must pay attention to Alleggri wishes, and they must also be more careful in making policies to avoid any sanctions in the future.

Even though Juventus have more free time because they are absent from European competitions, they don't necessarily have to relax in their pursuit of the Scudetto. Inter of course also want the same thing, and will continue to try to divide their focus between the UCL and Serie A, and I think they are used to facing that challenge before. Although it is quite reasonable to say that Juventus has a better chance, Inter will not let anyone step over their position.

It's indeed important to have quality squad in determining success, but fixtures are also something to concern about. Inter having a better quality squad is not an advantage due to having more competition to compete in, because the additional fixtures can be physically demanding and could potentially impact their domestic performances. Inter having more players to have International Duties is also a disadvantage for them. This can be a complexity of situation to their season.

The competitive balance and unpredictability in outcomes make the season intriguing, but it's indeed enjoyable to watch. The recognition of external factors like international commitments and the potential for injuries can define the uncertainty that makes football an exciting show to watch. This anticipation delivers excitement for us as football fans, because we can watch how different factors play out and influence the league standings. I think Inter has prepared to everything expected situation that them favorite to win the league.

Juventus is an important team and they continue to be successful, challenging Inter in the championship race. They will soon play away against Genoa and this is a match that may affect the course of the league. If they win this match, they will become temporary leaders. Milan is far away from them and there seems to be a title race between them and Inter. The Scudetto race was not good last year, but there is a better race this year. Last year Napoli won by a wide margin and the competition was less.

I'm not giving up on bianconeri this season, they are building the club and there's strong probability of the club bouncing back. Juventus are trying everything they could to bounce back to the squad, everything becomes very volatile for the club each time the club important players sustained injuries. I've watch Juventus pattern of game and I must comment that they're not in good shape this season, having one of the promising coach in the club, Massimiliano Allegri keeps making both good and poor results, I believed he can make things right for the club in due time.

It's not that they are bad or anything, it's the simple fact that they are not consistent. They have played some amazing games, they have played like they are the best team in the whole world at some games and then they have lost to some terrible teams as well. They do not look like they are consistent and that's the worst type of team to bet on, because you do not know if the yare going to end up getting a win or they are going to end up with a loss.

If you knew that they have a certain talent level, win or lose, you would be able to bet on them and think that they could win. But, I have seen them be good enough to beat teams like Inter or Juventus, they were that good, and also I have seen them play like they could lose to some Serie B teams as well. This type of inconsistency is the reason why they are not getting anything easy for the gamblers, because I would not be able to bet on them to win any games since I do not know which day they are on.

Compared to the quality of the squad, I think Juventus has a less qualified squad. That's why Inter has more chances, but they will also play important matches in the UCL. Additionally, players may have international country matches and if they get injured in those matches, this could affect Inter greatly. It promises to be a great season this year. It is a very enjoyable season to watch.

The rivalry in the hunt for the Scudetto this season is between Inter Milan and Juventus, the difference in points created made it difficult for Milan and Roma to overtake. The week 16 match will pit Inter versus Lazio, I am quite confident with Inter statistics that they can secure full points in this match, the goal is only one, namely to confirm their position at the top of the standings. Meanwhile, Juventus, who play first, will face Genoa, even though they act as the visiting team, I predict that Allleggri squad will also be able to secure 3 points. This means that the changes that occur are only temporary, unless the Inter versus Lazio match is postponed for some reason.

Apart from that, of course Juventus has a great opportunity to overtake Inter at the top of the standings, considering that there are many future matches that have not yet been played. For Inter, the depth of the squad they have means they can divide their focus into two competitions. Juventus, which only plays in local competitions, should be able to compete and put pressure on Inter until the end of the season, I am still quite hesitant to say which one of them has a greater chance of winning the Scudetto, because the season  is still not half over, we need to see their progress in the second half of the season.
