But it must be admitted that even though Napoli managed to get one point, this is not the point they wanted, they should have gotten three points at home. Make no mistake, Napoli are currently the defending champions of Serie A, so getting a point for me is not something Rudi Garcia should be proud of.

Napoli this season has been inconsistent while Rudi Garcia took over as Napoli coach. Yesterday before the match, I said in one of my posts that Napoli would have difficulty winning over AC Milan even though Napoli were favorites because they were playing at home. The result was a draw and almost lost.

Napoli still has the opportunity to improve its standings. Rudi Garcia's current challenge is not to win Serie A, but to maintain his position to automatically qualify for the Champions League group stages.

Milan looked very good because they put in a strong away performance. It's true that Napoli also did well to come back against a team that seemed to be their bogeyman. No matter how they perform, they always struggle against Milan.

It is true that Napoli is the defending champions and was also playing at home in Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, but they deserve commendation. They were two goals down in the first half and had to fought and got two goals in the second half of the game. It is not easy to come back and get a draw from a formidable side like AC Milan. Both teams missed a lot of opportunities but Christian Pulisic was my best player in that game. The American midfielder have improved to a large extent since he moved to Italy from Chelsea. He was instrumental to Olivier Giroud's two goals.

Fiorentina was in good form and I thought they could easily beat a team like Empoli because compared to many other teams they faced in this season Empoli was not a strong team. Also, the performance of Fiorentina in this match was not bad at all to lose this game but in the side story, we know sometimes even the strongest team in the world can lose the game while we were not expecting to see from them. In fact, Fiorentina could normally beat Empoli in this match but they just couldn't finish the balls they had.

This was Empoli's best performance for the season and they deserved to win the game. Fiorentina created few chances in the first half but they wasted all of them them. The win took them to the 18th position which is not still comfortable. Empoli is currently playing against Atlanta and the game is 1-0 in favor of Atlanta. A win would have moved them to 16th position but if they remain in their current position if they lose in the match.

Due to Napoli status as defending champions, it is no surprise that Rudi Garcia must be able to maintain Napoli good performance, at least Napoli must be in the top 4. And as you said, if Napoli were outside the top 4, his position as Napoli coach would be increasingly threatened. So, if we discuss Napoli performance this season, of course it will be difficult for them to defend the Scudetto title because Inter Milan has performed better than them this season.

Lazio also had a bad rally this season, they were only able to achieve 4 win in 9 matches. And today Lazio will face Fiorentina, which will be quite a difficult match for Lazio because Fiorentina appears stronger this season. Even though Lazio was able to dominate the victory in H2H, Fiorentina dominated more in this match to achieve victory.

Yes maintaining the title is more difficult than taking it at least this is what Napoli experienced, Rudi Garcia came as a coach with a normal record this means no need to expect more to him in the first season obviously he needs something to be planned we will see the performance in the following season. Related to Lazio vs Fiorentina I didn't see one of them favored to win there is a possibility both teams only drew, as usual for a match like this Both Teams to Score will attract my attention. we also have a live match at this time between Empoli vs Atalanta so far Atalanta is 2 goals ahead in the first half and Empoli has no way to catch up so Atalanta will definitely get 3 points today.

Rudi Garcia and his players got one point in this game which is really important for this team because AC Milan is a team in the top of the Serie A league and even earning one point in this match amazing for them against Milan.

For Rudi Garcia, he can breathe a sigh of relief because had he lost the game yesterday the management of the club who already were considering sacking him and replacing him with another option would have had no doubt about the decision that they were about to take. He was able to make effective changes and that affected the outcome of the game. From the way I see this Napoli, they will not be able to defend their title this season, but will be fighting to qualify for the Champions league.

As long as Napoli are still in the Champions League zone, Rudi Garcia position as coach is still safe he still deserves the chance but if Napoli come out of top 4 then I do not hesitate his career will end up with Napoli, we know Serie A only runs 10 matches, meaning there are still many matches and points to be collected and who knows Rudi Garcia can make a significant increase after the middle of the season. Besides that I also saw that Osimhen contribution was still low, I don't know what obstacles but obviously it has an impact on Napoli. Napoli are still lucky in the next 2 matches because his opponent is a weak team so it is the right time to collect more points and stay safe in top 4.

Milan played so well in the first half that it seemed certain that they would win the match. They scored 2 goals and missed many goal chances. But Napoli made a great comeback in the second half. Milan should regret the goals they missed in the first half. Giroud played so well, but no one else scored a goal. Napoli was about to fall out of the championship race, but they made this comeback. Especially Raspadori scored such a free kick that he literally gave Napoli the kiss of life. A draw is a good result in a match where you are down 2 goals. Otherwise, we were saying before the match that Napoli had to win for sure. We can say that this result is the best of the worst. This score pleased Juventus and Inter fans the most.

Fiorentina last loses from Empoli is really unexpected because at that time most people has been predict the match against Empoli will be so easy for them especially before that match Fiorentina has been able to beat Napoli and today Fiorentina want to bounce back with attempts to beat Lazio but Lazio cannot be underestimate because Lazio records was quite impressive at home and during this season they only lose once in Serie A at home

About team conditions if Sarri want to rotation Lazio squad then Taty Castellanos probably will be played as centre striker to replace Ciro Immobile with Felipe Anderson as right winger and for Fiorentina Bonaventura who not in the squad when Fiorentina beat FC Cukaricki at European Conference League probably will be played since early match and Fiorentina has poor records during playing at Lazio home because in the last 8 matches they were unable to win and these records makes me confident Lazio will be able to beat Fiorentina today and Lazio odds is @2.31

Of course you guessed that AC Milan will win it after the first half because they had a 2 goal lead. But for AC Milan this means quite the setback as they have had a great couple of weeks without losing or any draws. Now losing the game against Juventus and giving away the 2 goal lead against Napoli reshapes their overall situation. They looked very solid and now there is quite some damage to that seemingly perfect picture from the last weeks. They are now last in the Champions League group and they lose their games against the strong Serie A teams. Two weeks ago I thought they might be stronger than this.

Indeed. They were leading with 2 goals at that time, I never think that they will be very easy to get 2 conceded goals in second half. I don't see Osimhen in Napoli lineup, I think Napoli attackers won't be quite strong. Moreover, after conceded 2 goals in the first half, I assume Napoli players will be difficult to improve their game due to the lack of their confident. But I was wrong, in fact Napoli players could come back in the second half. They showed that they never give up to equalize the score. Honestly, I really appreciated what Napoli players have done in the second half.

AC Milan showed their weakness against big teams. In the last two matches in Serie A, they played against big teams and they never got a single win. They were also defeated by Inter Milan in matchday 4. It indicates that AC Milan is only superior when they play against mediocre teams or small teams. With this condition, I'm not sure AC Milan can survive in the top 3 of Serie A until the end of the season.

After the away side AC Milan went 2:0 up in the the first 31 minutes of the game, I thought it was going to be another Italian Serie A defeat for the home side Napoli but Napoli came back in the second half of that game playing like a team who not just hunting for a point but for a maximum three points from that game and were rewarded with a draw against a big club like AC Milan.
I think the Milan defense were toothless in the second half of that very important encounter and it caused the team hugely by drawing they were leading 2:0 at halftime. Great match and a good way to advertise the Italian football to the rest of the world

You're right. I just saw how poor the defensive line of acmilan. Despite initially leading the match, Milan struggled to maintain their advantage and ultimately could not hold off Napoli. It's very disappointed for me to be honest to see this result. Giroud had given all he owns to help acmilan to lead the game but it's all become useless effort since acmlan can't even keep to hold the attack from napoli properly. The changes that happened in the squad compared with last season was giving no impact to the performance of defenders from acmilan.
Pioli needs to think how to bring a new strategy and make it being unpredicted by its opponent. Giroud is always playing so good when he has gotten ball in the air but politano must also be appreciated here.
I know that he was coming from intermilan and this is a disaster for acmilan to see former of intermilan players were helping napoli to equalize the score.
Acmilan played so well but it's still far from fans expectations.

But after I looked back at every match that AC Milan had played and it turned out that it was true that this team (AC Milan) didn't seem to get positive results when facing strong teams. Defeated by Inter Milan and Juventus and then held to a draw by Napoli in yesterday's match. Even in the match against Roma, AC Milan actually almost got a draw if they didn't get a penalty kick.

And it seems natural that we are starting to doubt AC Milan this season. But at least I remain confident that Milan will succeed in remaining in the top 3. But winning the title might be difficult.

If we look at the course of the match against Napoli, Milan are not fully ready to challenge for the Scudetto this season, Inter and Juventus have already beaten them. Most recently, what Napoli did namely turning things around and forcing them to share the points, is the proof. But if Pioli has the budget, he should spend it on strengthening the defense in the second half of the season, at least to ensure that they are not knocked out of the Champions League places at the end of the season.

I agree that if Milan has difficulty winning when facing fellow big teams in Serie A, it is more likely that they will lose or draw. At the start of the season their performance looked promising, but as the season progressed they failed to maintain their consistency, just as their performance in the UCL seemed like they would fail to qualify from the group phase.

This is just a beginning! With no creativity strategy from Pioli, next few match we will see AC Milan lose from a bottom team. After winning scudetto, Pioli manage to focus on triangle scheme. In case, AC Milan can't makes a single goal, Milan will do a long pass and its look like Milan won't trying to play with a tempo to find a good opportunity to scoring goal.

I won't be surprised if Lazio loses in this match, Fiorentina is one of the teams that can play good football this year

Although in head to head Fiorentina is not so good but at least, in this season Fiorentina managed to have better results compared to Lazio. Because anyway, if we consider the home and away results so far this season, the fact is that Fiorentina also has the same home record as Lazio. But for away results, in fact Fiorentina also only has one loss and one draw. With a record like this, it looks like Fiorentina still has the quality to be able to hold Lazio draw at home, or maybe beat Lazio in this match. But even so, I personally do not have a strong feeling to determine which team will win in this match and therefore, I only bet with the option of both teams to score.

I really enjoyed the Napoli vs Milan match... It was really a battle with a dramatic scenario... After the first half I had no doubts that Milan would win, but in the second half Napoli managed to equalise with two goals... Serie A pleases me every time...

Me too but quite disappointed with the result from this match. I was not hoping to see draw as the result from this match. Acmilan was performing so well till napoli was able forcing the result became draw. Thanks for giroud caused by acmilan was not losing in this game but the club played so garbage especially for the defenders of club. Acmilan played so average in this match. Giroud becmoes the savior for the club through his brilliant finishings. I was hoping acmilan to keep its position when the club was leading the match but some horrible defenders were let napoli to scoring another goal.
Draw is not bad but if we are talking about the competition to stay at the top and this is actually a bad result for acmilan. Acmilan needs to get three points to keep up with intermilan which is very strong at the first position right now.
Acmilan needs to get a miracle to make it happen.

Usually I don't enjoy the game whenever I see a draw and I think AC Milan could beat Napoli in this match because of the better situation they had before the game but in the end, Rudi Garcia and his players got one point in this game which is really important for this team because AC Milan is a team in the top of the Serie A league and even earning one point in this match amazing for them against Milan.

In the second half it could be called a great comeback for Napoli. In the first half where AC Milan lead by two goals it is very natural to think that AC Milan will win this match and I think 90% of people who watched the game thought that AC Milan could win this match. After scoring two goals in the beginning, AC Milan did not play their best at the end. If a team leads by two goals in the first half, then that team should not concede a goal from the opponent in the second half.

AC Milan conceded two goals between 50 minutes and 63 minutes and they finished the game 2:2. Losing points in such a match is definitely a bad thing for AC Milan.

This is what im thinking about. Pioli has everything predict by other team easily. The club does the same mistake anytime. I don't even know what's plan from pioli but he was wasting so many opportunities through implementing the wrong scheme.
I think that acmilan will not be qualified for the knock out stage of UCL if acmilan keeps played like shit. Acmilan was able making two goals against napoli but it's not what i wanted to see. Acmilan might have able to beaten napoli when the club was able consistently defending its goal net.
Acmilan players are always making so many mistakes. This trend is still continue when acmilan was also playing in the UCL as well. I can't even count how many times acmilan repeats the same mistake.
Milan can only rely upon giroud as someone who was capable enough in scoring. I don't even see where the heck leao is right now. This guy's performance has been declining a lot since many people praised him as best winger lol.
Probably star syndrome was happening to him and it does impact to its mentality. Acmilan played so poorly in the serie a and UCL

Inter - Roma was a completely one-sided game honestly. I remember only once Roma had a really big opportunity to score and that's all. Even after Inter scored finally in the last ten minutes Roma were still struggling to fight back against them. It was clear that Mourinho came here to get one point.

I'm trying to understand Mourinho about his strategy especially because of not starting well to the season. But it is really difficult to resist a team which is very effective in the attacking line until the end of a game. This was the scenario here as well. Sad

The shot statistics are also very far away meaning that Roma did not have such a big chance in this match only their defense was a little stronger even though in the end they conceded a goal through Thuram in the 81st minute and this single goal as Inter Milan's victory.

In this match Jose Mourinho did not lead his team, while only the assistant coach gave direction, I don't know what happened to Mourinho whether he got punished or there were other obstacles.
So far AS Roma still cannot be sure of being in the top 4 their game is still unstable.

Milan showed their weak side in yesterday match, yes their defense line was very porous and Pioli should have seen clearly when Napoli managed to turn things around in the second half. On the other hand, Milan is not bad, although a draw is quite fair for both, it is clear that if they want to target the Scudetto at the end of the season they must be able to dominate the other big Serie A clubs. However, this has not been possible and on the other hand we have to understand that Napoli are the defending champions, so it will not be an easy job to beat them.

Now the Serie A standings have changed and Pioli's squad must be willing to sit in third place in the standings. I think the current standings are an ideal picture of where they will finish at the end of the season. But we know it's still too early to say, a lot can happen in the next weeks.

AC Milan showed their weakness against big teams. In the last two matches in Serie A, they played against big teams and they never got a single win. They were also defeated by Inter Milan in matchday 4. It indicates that AC Milan is only superior when they play against mediocre teams or small teams. With this condition, I'm not sure AC Milan can survive in the top 3 of Serie A until the end of the season.

This is just a beginning! With no creativity strategy from Pioli, next few match we will see AC Milan lose from a bottom team. After winning scudetto, Pioli manage to focus on triangle scheme. In case, AC Milan can't makes a single goal, Milan will do a long pass and its look like Milan won't trying to play with a tempo to find a good opportunity to scoring goal.

It is clear that Milan will remain in the top four and of course, this is still good for Milan. Because, even though Milan didn't manage to win when playing against top teams, but Milan can guarantee good results when playing against mediocre teams in Serie A. After all, at least you can compare how many top teams and how many mediocre teams are in Serie A, and at least more mediocre teams . So, if for example Milan always wins or doesn't lose when playing against mediocre teams then of course Milan will be able to maintain good position in the top four. Moreover, playing against Napoli and that Milan was not bad at all and after all, Milan managed to win in the first half with a score of 0-2 and it still a great match for Milan. Even though it ended in a draw result but still, a draw is not bad at all, especially Milan played away in this match.
