I feel for him but at the same time rules are rules and he most be punished if the rumors are true. If this will happen , then I think his career is kinda over and maybe he will re-sign somewhere in Asia or Saudi Arabia if he has some luck because no big teams will want to deal with him after this incident .

Pogba has been confirmed positive for doping.
He will have 7 days to give a defense.

He will be probably banned for 1 year according to rumors.

This is sad news on his side and will be very sad to his fans and family. This has tarnished his reputation in football despite having a very good career in football. In his international career, he has won 4 Serie A titles, 2 copa italia, 1 EFL cup, 1 Europa League title and a World Cup to his name. He has earned a lot in his career and I think he shouldn’t have engaged in such illegal act that has caused him this now. Juventus will definitely terminate his contract and this will be to end to his football career, it is such a shame and a sad end to a good career for him. I hope his case will serve as a lesson to other players who are engaging in such or planing to do so in the future.

With this win, Mourinho and AS Roma are actually coming back. I know Servette are not a strong team and Mourinho admitted that Servette are weaker than all clubs in Serie A but a win is a win that is helpful for Roma to secure their position in Europa League group and helped them to continue a win streak.

Their next match in Serie A will be against Cagliari next two days and it will be a home away match for AS Roma. They need another win in Serie A to continue climbing up n the standing table. Perhaps, if they win and are luckily enough with bad results from above clubs, they can jump to the eighth position in standing table of Serie A.

A confirmation from a second test, with a positive result, is a confirmation for his doping and he will be banned a few years from football. At his age, it is the end for his career that was already destroyed by some injuries recent years.

I don't hope bad things for him but perhaps with this doping confirmation, it will be something good for him. He will no longer have to struggle to keep up his hope to continue his career as injuries already nearly beat him down recent months. He tried but after recovered, trained and came back in real matches, he got injuries again. Maybe without this doping shock, he will fail to come back again in this season.

Let's wait for final punishment announcement on Pogba but according to laws in Italy, no choice for him to come back after finishing a punishment against doping usage.

It is true that weak teams could beat good ones at their weakest moments but this isn't always the case as we know.
Lecce 1 - 1 Sassuolo was quite normal result since Sassuolo is mid-table team and fluctuating from a match to another.
Empoli 0 - 0 Udinese is also a normal result, both teams are hovering around the relegation zone and will remain there for a long time apparently.

It seems that the first two matches this week will both end in a draw. Because the opening match, namely Empoli and Udinese, also ended in a draw with a score of 0-0.
And currently Sassuolo is also competing against Lecce. And the score was still 1-1 even though the match was almost over. Those who bet on a draw in these two matches seem to be really lucky.
I personally didn't bet on these two matches and instead missed this match. because I'm really confused about making a choice in these two matches. Because everything is not in a consistent condition. so I don't want to take any risks this time.

I think the match that will be quite exciting this week is the Lazio vs Atalanta match. I'm curious about Lazio's performance. Will they return to the best game they had like last season. Or it will actually get worse by facing Atalanta, which is much more consistent than Lazio this season.

And currently Lazio's ranking position is really worrying. Lazio is currently ranked 16th. And this is indeed an unusual sight in the Serie A standings. Usually Lazio is always in the top 10. But currently Lazio is actually approaching the relegation zone.

Roma was really unstable as you just said and they got good results in some games while in some other matches, they had in this season, Mourinho and his palyer had poor performances just as losing the game with a 4-1 result against Genoa while Roma had 1-1 result in the first half and I was hoping to see Mourinho changes everything and win the game but they lost it.

Sometimes bad teams may end up beating good teams, but that doesn't mean that they suddenly became good teams themselves, they just got lucky, and could continue to play worse. That is the same with Lecce as well and Sassuolo game and should not be all that different.

I believe that we are going to end up with something that could benefit everyone for the betting reasons. I think the best way to bet on Italian league is to continue betting on the four good teams, sure they are not going to all win together at the same time every single week, but it would also not be uncommon for them to do that and if you win just once a month that would mean you are going to be in good profit as well. So people should not sway from what is the expected result.

This is just sad coming a player who has done so much in both club and country, I get why he did what he did. Any one on his shoes that knows and loves to play football won't let injury kill his career, he doesn't want to be on the sidelines for the rest of his playing days.
Looking for a means to be completely free from injury can make such a person go extra miles to get that sorted out, I'm not supporting his actions but I just feel for him, because as it is I don't think Juventus would want to keep him with this act, I feel it is finished for Paul Pogba as a Juventus player, but they might pardon him if care isn't taken, well let's see how it will be like in the coming days.

A good result for Udinese, at least they didn't lose against Empoli, because statistically Empoli a little more dominated that match. Actually Udinese is a big team but their performance this season is quite worrying, because they still not yet winning so far in the 8 matches. Udinese must make big changes in the winter transfer window, so that they can return to be a strong team again in Serie A.

This was really bore game with no action from the both bottom sides as Empoli was looking for the second win and Udinese was looking for the first win, but good thing happen for them at the end they were able to secure their fifth draw of their eight games and this result keeping them outside relegation jail for some more time things are looking not easy for the many teams as these are still looking for the improvement, but things are not favorable.

Right now we are having another good game with Lecce hosting giant killer Sassuolo and host team currently trailing by 0 - 1 which is going to be third lost for them after having impressive start for them and surely this could be another impressive win for the Sassuolo which already beats Juventus and Inter Milan and now having good time against Lecce.

Berardi wouldn't stop his brilliant performance in Sausuolo as he has scored a penalty on the 22nd minutes of the game. This has made Sausuolo to take the lead against their host Lecce. Sausuolo took possession of the match and dominated the game, Lecce don't have the power to stop the pressure that Sausuolo mounted on them. The first half is over and I hope that the host Lecce will be able to stand on their feet to equalise the goal. Sausuolo proved that they are more stronger that Lecce with the way that they played in the first half. There will be a better performance in the first half from both teams, and more goals to be scored.
Lecce 0-1 Sausuolo.

The French midfielder can be banned for up to four years due to the presence of  DHEA [Dehydroepiandrosterone] in his blood.  He defended himself by claiming that he took the drug without knowing that it contained a banned substance. I see that as a false claim because as a professional player, he should be aware and very conscious of the drugs he takes. I support the fact that if he falls to unturn this current judgment if he appeals,  this will be the end of his career. Pogba just came back from injury and was struggling to regain fitness, now here comes the mother of all trouble, failing anti doping test. If he is banned for fours, he might not be able to come back to football because he would have turned 34 which is an unlikely age to play active football. I think he should just resign and go into something else.

The game between empoloi and udinase has ended with both teams not been able to score any goal, it ended a goalless draw and both teams where unable to climb up the table, empoli have failed to move up from the relegation zone of the table as they were unable to secure complete point, they secured just one point which is not enough to take them from the relegation.

Udinase only move a step further away from the relegation zone but then they are not capable enough to probably finish top they will only avoid relegation, both team weren't giving good performance as recoded by statistics but then they have managed to share the point equally amongst their selves. Maybe they could improve in subsequent games and get better.

But before this time I think that there has been some problems between pogba and juventus, that for a very long time now they haven't featured him in their games, no doubt about the fact that  he has committed to doping but the whole drama of juventus not playing pogba or featuring him in matches has been lingering for a very long time now, this is doping issue is just a final nail on the head to finalize this contract with juventus.
I think the juventus did a poor job in handling the players conflict with the club, and I don't know what the internal crisis has been but it's obvious that the level of serious rancour between the player and his club wasn't a funny one. this is a young man that did well by giving his best to the club at his prime.
I just wish him the best in his future endeavours because his football career is gone.

According to rumors circulating, it is possible that Paul Pogba will be banned from playing for up to 4 years and of course there is no longer any hope for him to continue his football career. Moreover, he is currently 30 years old and during the ban he will be 34 years old, of course this will have an impact on his performance as a football player and perhaps no club will want to accept him as a player after the ban is over.

This is the end of Paul Pogba's story and after going back and forth from Manchester United to Juventus, we didn't know if his fate would end so soon. Even though I had hoped that he would continue his prime in the past two seasons, but because he was often injured and even with this case of doping use, his name on the football scene was over.

Everyone has their own favorite and maybe that's what he chose in accordance with the observations he had made before before deciding to bet on the team he wrote above.

But I agree with you about Monza and Salenitana matches must be recalculated if you see from the opportunities you count friends, but in several meetings between Monza and Salenitana against Monza, Salernitana only won one match, all 3 full wins in the winning by winning by winning Monza from the last 4 matches.
I think if I in the position he will also prefer Monza compared to Salernitana, seen from the game and the position of the standings between Monza and Salernitana quite far.

The match ended in a draw, no side was able to score any goal in 90 minutes, to show how boring the game was. Both teams were not playing to win because they lack the skills of scoring.

Empoli the host had good opportunities of netting the post but they miss used it and the game ended up with both sides sharing one point each. I don't think that Empoli will survive going to relegation this season because they have started poorly, and there will no sign to show that they will do better later.

Yes, of course Juventus chose to end the contract with Pogba rather than have other problems because doping will be a serious problem for Pogba and of course in the long term other problems will arise at Juventus if they don't immediately end the contract.
I just think why this player is reckless enough to consume doping just for a better quality of talent when he is not a great player but the talent he has is only the influence of the doping.
Maybe my opinion is a little wrong, but nevertheless Juventus feels that they have lost out on recruiting this player and he has not made a big contribution but has caused trouble for Juventus.

If I have to bet, I think these selections are good to go because, according to my observations, they are my favorite teams to win, but truth be told, if care is not taken, one team will fuckup out of this selection. But from the selection to minimize my risk in gambling, I would like to remove some games from the team you selected, especially the game of Monza playing against Salernitana. But for the rest of the games, I think they all have over 70% chances of winning their matches, but the only team I may doubt again should be Roma because they are going away, but I believe that Roma will do anything possible to win the game, and again, their opponent Cagliari is very weak, but I am expecting them to be a little bit strong playing in their home.
