The narrow victory at home was quite surprising, especially when they faced Lecce who always had difficulty beating them, but Lecce this season was quite good and this was their first defeat, it can be seen from the statistics that this was a very balanced match, no one dominated so Lecce did not let Juventus easy to win. When they face another stronger team where the match will be tighter, it will be even more difficult for Juventus to win, there must be a big change in their game.

Their game is quite balanced, their possession is not much different. It's just that Juventus tried more shots on goal. Even Juventus has 5 shots on target and Lecce 0. So I said Juventus deserved to win. Even if it is only 1 goal, at least Juventus has 3 points. But homework, Allegri seems to have to encourage the players to maximize the chances to become goals. At least this victory does not keep them from ranking one, Inter who have not lost in 5 matches.
This is quite a fierce match, Lecce this season has performed very well and this defeat is their first defeat this season.
In my opinion, the game of the two teams is quite balanced, it's just that Juventus is much more effective in attack so they are able to create many opportunities, and it is true that the problem with Juventus' front line in solving opportunities to convert into goals is still an obstacle so of the many opportunities there is only 1 the goals they were able to create, that is still something the Juventus team lacks this season.
But overall, of course, this victory is very important for Juventus after losing to Sassuolo in the previous match.

]It would be great if Juventus did that, but the problem is that this match even though Juventus is definitely the favorite but still it will be a little difficult for them.
Lecce is currently still quite good in terms of performance even if you look at the record at the beginning of this season Lecce is better than Juventus because they still haven't lost and managed to beat Lazio and hold a draw with Fiorentina, which in fact is one of the clubs that is bigger than them.
Juventus will inevitably have to work hard again in this match because otherwise this will not be too good especially with the previous defeat I think they need to make some changes so that they are not too far behind in terms of points.
if we predict from h2h it is very convincing that Juventus will be superior in today match but if we predict from the current performance both of them are difficult to predict even though they are playing at Juventus home ground but Lecce is currently in a very strong condition and is even able to rank third in series A standings make us all a little unsure about which team to bet on.

but to take a small risk I just did a little research on previous performance if Juventus will still be stronger at home even if Lecce is able to match Juventus performance it will end in a draw so I will bet on double chance Juventus or draw. even the odds are very small, I tried multi betting on other teams.
The match ended in a narrow one-goal win for Juventus and they walked away with 3 points after an embarrassing defeat the previous week.
Milik started and it was actually quite good from the performance he showed.
This match looks like it's not easy but looking at the statistics I think it's very easy because looking at Lecce's performance they are very difficult to get chances even for 90 minutes on target Lecce 0 because of the solid defense of Juventus and the chemistry of the players is also quite good.
With 3-5-2 actually this makes some things where when the enemy counterattacks the midfielders are ready with anticipation so that fast counterattacks are difficult to do which makes Juventus quite comfortable in this match.
Juventus is still staying at the top 5. There's no need to feel disappointed just because juventus was winning with narrow score against lecce. Getting three points are the main aim from juventus in serie a to secure UCL spot next season.
Juventus was also playing against lecce which was showing consistnet performance since the early of this season.

Juventus played openly with mistakes in the previous match, which made Juventus lose in the previous match, that's why Juventus played hard at home because if they lost it would have an impact on the players and coaches, which we know is very intense with the hashtag #Allegriout is dissatisfaction with Massimiliano Allegri, Lecce cannot be underestimated. They were able to stay in 4th position in the Italian League standings, so the victory over Lecce made Juventus return to 2nd place in the provisional standings.

Regarding being in the UCL Zone, it has become a benchmark for Juventus to continue to get full points in every match because Juventus' main target is the Scudetto for this season. Regarding the UCL, it is only a bonus for the Juventus squad.

upcoming match today Milan vs Cagliari.

Milan opportunity to steal points from Cagliari and catch up on the points difference from Juventus who beat Lecce yesterday and are in second place and today match will change Milan position, shifting Juventus position if they can beat Cagliari. Milan should win this match and there is no harm in betting on Milan because in history Cagliari has never been able to beat Milan, even in the next match Milan will not be the host but the chances of winning are still big or at least narrow. but for now, looking at the depth of Milan performance, they will not only win narrowly, they will even get a bigger score.

I think Milan is very ambitious to catch up with rival team Inter Milan which is currently at the top of the standings with a difference of 3 points from Milan which makes the competition in series A more competitive.
odds are quite high


Milan is a very ambitious club right now. Ac milan has been achieving great result last season and it is willing to repeat the same thing or even better.

Quote
“I believe that the club is on the right path. We managed to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League. Now the club’s objective must be to continue to rise, to continue to be strong. And I am sure that Milan will soon return to winning a Champions League, which is our goal. I speak for myself, I’m young, I’m a player who wants to win big things, I think the Champions League is every player’s dream and we’re working for this.”
https://cultofcalcio.com/leao-reiterates-milan-goal-one-ucl-is-worth-more-than-e10m/

Intermilan is still being unbeatable in serie a but it doesn't mean inter will win scudetto this season. Acmilan is having very big chance to take the scudetto this season. Winning the game against cagliari is a must for acmilan to catch up intermilan which is staying at the top position right now.
Milan is far superior compared with cagliari and i think acmilan will beat cagliari easily. Milan's odds is already good.

Im still waiting for final line up will be used by acmilan. Leaso and pulisic may become the main starter against cagliari. There will be so many matches to happen at the same time soon.

Congratulations for juventus by winning the game against lecce. Even though juventus win without impressive scores but this is far better for the fans after the lose against sasuolo in the previous week. Juventus is really having trouble in the attacking line.
Im watching that if some chances were not executed well by juventus players. Im happy juventus was winning the game and it makes my pick for this match is right.

The club played so well against lecce but juventus needs to improve its attacking line to have better finishing in upcoming game. So far so good. Juventus is still having chance to compete at the top position against duo milan.
The old lady is coming back again. Juventus will face atalanta in upcoming match. The old lady will get another difficult team to beat soon.

I hope it'll be going well like this time.
This victory helped Juventus a little to get the full 3 point and Arkadiusz Milik became the hero for Juventus victory. Lecce resistance was quite difficult and Lecce was also in good condition so Juventus could only score 1 goal in the seconds half.
Juventus talak defeat against Sassuolo was a bit embarrassing for Juventus because Sassuolo is not a strongs clubs but Juventus could not beat it and Juventus seemed to be experiencing a lot of difficulties in defense.
Juventus finally proved its ability in the match against Lecce and Juventus tried hards not to lose point in this matchs because if Juventus lost these points it would cause disappointment for Juventus fans because they were not able to appear impressive in a matchs that accordings to Juventus analysis had enough opportunities to wins every matchs for club that are not in goods conditions

Yes, it's true, Juventus are currently never easy to win, even though Juventus are playing at home but still, the fact that playing at home also does not make it easier for Juventus to get three points. But yes, although Juventus still need greater efforts but at least Juventus managed to get three points, and managed to beat Lecce so that Lecce got his first defeat this season. Also, it looks like the next match will not be easy for Juventus, because in the next match Juventus will play against Atalanta, Torino and also Milan. So yes, it looks like it will be a difficult match in a row, and maybe it will make Juventus slip again.
Massimiliano Allegri felt a little bit satisfied, the Old lady's are still in the game. He mapped out the solid strategy that would leads to goals. Juventus back on their heel, winning average sides, they're simply the best team and have good contributions towards the scudetto, Lecce was so close to making it a draw tie for both sides, along the line they messed up in the second half, creating way for Milik that scored his first season goal, resulting in breaking the deadlock, here's Allianz stadium. Juventus is an elite club with quality players, they're simply facing challenges in league games.

Juventus game has not improved at all, and it does not seem possible for it to improve with the current limited squad. I think they have the capacity to finish the league in 3rd or 4th place at best. They were able to win the Lecce match with a single goal. They are not a team that is in a position to win easily. For now, if they strengthen the bad players in the interim transfer season and add purposeful players to the team, a much more effective central midfield is needed instead of Miretti, for example. Maybe they could consider a more aggressive centre-forward next to Vlahovic.
Perhaps the shock of the game against sassuolo was still great, the game 4:2 lose they do not forget so quickly. Lecce is currently a very tactful team, they have no lost in the first 5 games, but now against Juventus. Only Inter Milan has also no lost in there first 5 games, so to beat Lecce was not easy. Vlahovic was substituted in the 80th minute, but Milik was the right decision.

Yes, it's true, Juventus are currently never easy to win, even though Juventus are playing at home but still, the fact that playing at home also does not make it easier for Juventus to get three points.

I think Napoli have been unlucky so far. This is what is difficult for every club to implement, maintaining last season's top position will always be difficult because the team's weak points are not addressed and largely because Napoli have lost several important factors this is surprising. Indeed, in the match against Bologna, they could dominate but they just need a little luck and be more clinical in taking advantage of their opportunities.
Why they are unlucky? They actually still have enough top players. They just can't optimize their performance because they have new tactics/strategies. Now, with a new coach (Rudi Garcia), Napoli applies a different game style. Under a new coach, Napoli players' mentality seems not as well as in the previous season. That's why Napoli turns to be like a different team this season.

IMO, Napoli doesn't need to maintain the top position as the last season. But they should be in the top 4 (UCL zone) at least. And Napoli shouldn't get difficulty against small teams like Bologna and Genoa. We know that Napoli still has Osimhen, Kvaratskhelia, Zielinski, and Rrahmani. With these players, Napoli should play better than the 2 last matches in Serie A.
However, when a club changes coaches then of course there will definitely be changes within the club. Even though it's still the same players. But with a different coach it will definitely still make things different. That's what happened in Naples.

However, the most striking difference from Napoli is Osimhen's performance which has decreased. Osimhen's skills in swiping and running are still the same. But Osimhen's shooting accuracy doesn't seem as sharp as last season. I see Osimhen missing too many opportunities.
But I still hope that Napoli can restore their confidence and return to their best performance.

Today Napoli will face Udinese. And the history of meetings between the two always shows positive results for Napoli. Udinese have not won once against Napoli in the last 5 meetings. And now Udinese must come to Napoli's home ground. So Napoli should be the favorite here. Maybe we have to see whether in this match Napoli can restore their confidence or not.

Juventus secured victory with a narrow score in this match. Lecce was unable to make changes in this match because Juventus really dominated the game. Statistically, Lecce must end their good streak this season because the defeat to Juventus was their first defeat this season. Apart from that, the competition at the top of the standings is getting more interesting, especially as Juventus continues to stick closely to Inter Milan this week.
The quality of players were telling us about the difference between these two teams. I have no problem with juventus winning the match with narrow score. Win is more than enough for me to secure my victory as well. It surprised me as well about lecce's performance being unbeatable till this week. Juventus was just stealing full points from lecce. Juventus needs to secure UCL spot caused by the club has no worry to be banned by UEFA from its competitions.
Juventus has been banned from conference league and the club will not receive another ban from UEFA which is good. this must become the main motivation for the club to compete for the UCL sport as well.


Many matches will take place tomorrow, especially for big teams such as Ac Milan who will face Cagliari and Inter Milan vs Sassuolo. I think there will be a lot of changes in the standings board this weekend. For this reason, I think several teams outside the top 4, such as Napoli, have the opportunity to reduce the points behind the teams above them if they are able to take advantage of this week's match by winning 3 points.
Those will not be hard matches for acmilan and sassuolo. Intermilan and acmilan will be winning those games. Intermilan is still become unbeatable club till this time. I think that the club will continue to achieve the same thing like napoli did last season.
My prediction if intermilan will be continue its winstreak till the middle of the season. There's no one can beat interimlan at this moment.

I think despite their dominant performance and countless opportunities they created, Juventus only scored one goal to secure the victory in the second half. While failing to generate a single shot on Juventus goal, Lecce could only match them in terms of possession. With this victory Juventus moved up to second place in the standings. Intriguingly, Juventus struggled to take advantage of their possession and lacked the necessary effort to establish a comfortable lead. Juventus persisted in their goal-scoring attempts but Lecce staunch defense came close to paying dividends. Lecce defensive strategy, which nearly stopped Juventus from winning despite their meager offensive performance was the key to the game.

Even though they say that Garcia has a training style like Spalletti who tends to attack, so far, in practice this is different. Napoli's performance was not only not optimal in the attack line but also in the midfield. Even though Osimhen still has the same performance as before, he cannot optimize his abilities due to a lack of support from other players, especially in attacking positions. A lack of solid squad and inadequate tactics in this case were also one of the factors in Napoli's failure several times at the start of this season. I thought the difference wouldn't be that big, but the fact is quite surprising. Moreover, currently they are far in the middle of the standings.
Anyway Congratulations to Juventus that just won against Lecce with a score of 1-0. Even though it's only 1 goal difference, at least you win, you still win, you still get the full 3 points. However, there must be an evaluation from the coach, especially for their attack line. Again, sometimes they waste a lot of opportunities when they are already in their defense area. But overall, this time, they were able to optimize their opportunities quite well.
It's not surprising, on the contrary, I would be surprised if Napoli got off to a brisk start in the championship again, because other teams have strengthened, and they just started to crack and find an antidote against Napoli's game. Moreover, Garcia and Osimhen have a conflict on the basis of when and how the head coach should replace the player and the matter has already come to suggestions from team captain di Lorenzo in the locker room, a one-on-one meeting between the head coach and the forward on the base and even a probable fine. As for Juventus, I would like to say that the team, as always lately, in its trademark style, has forced a victory by pushing the ball into someone else's goal, so the fans should be happy that the team got not one point, but three. There are no more reasons to be happy.

I respect Lecce's start to the season completely. However I would rather be realistic about this match today. I will be expecting a clear victory by Juventus.

I was thinking the same for Juventus' match against Lazio in Turin also. I didn't doubt Juventus in that match despite Lazio's beating Napoli before. I think the same scenario will happen in this match too. Lecce also showed really good performances against bigger teams like Fiorentina and Lazio both. But I don't expect to see the same resistance here.

Juventus can finish the job even in the first half if we see the same concentration level in the Lazio match. I think they will win by a 2-goal difference.  Smiley
The match was over and Juventus was only able to score 1 winning goal in the second half. Actually, Juventus really dominated the match and they created quite a lot of opportunities but only one goal was scored. From Lecce they were only able to match Juventus with ball possession and even from shots on target they were unable to do it even once. This time Lecce had to stop and at least they realized that the time would come to lose.
Juventus' victory put them in second place in the standings. However, I saw that Juventus' game did not develop with Juventus' possession of the ball, they were only able to score one goal. Juventus doesn't seem to want to try too hard even though they are risking a draw in this match. Even though in that match the disturbances that occurred in Juventus' defense line were not very significant, Lecce did not even fire a single shot at Juventus' goal. Juventus played calmly considering that Lecce's unsuccessful way of playing made Juventus worried.

The essence of this match was Lecce doing their best, Lecce played a pure defensive game and they almost did it. Juventus also deserved to win because they tried their best to score goals even though they were not able to score many goals and were not even able to do much in building attacks.
Juventus game has not improved at all, and it does not seem possible for it to improve with the current limited squad. I think they have the capacity to finish the league in 3rd or 4th place at best. They were able to win the Lecce match with a single goal. They are not a team that is in a position to win easily. For now, if they strengthen the bad players in the interim transfer season and add purposeful players to the team, a much more effective central midfield is needed instead of Miretti, for example. Maybe they could consider a more aggressive centre-forward next to Vlahovic.

I think Napoli have been unlucky so far. This is what is difficult for every club to implement, maintaining last season's top position will always be difficult because the team's weak points are not addressed and largely because Napoli have lost several important factors this is surprising. Indeed, in the match against Bologna, they could dominate but they just need a little luck and be more clinical in taking advantage of their opportunities.
Why they are unlucky? They actually still have enough top players. They just can't optimize their performance because they have new tactics/strategies. Now, with a new coach (Rudi Garcia), Napoli applies a different game style. Under a new coach, Napoli players' mentality seems not as well as in the previous season. That's why Napoli turns to be like a different team this season.

IMO, Napoli doesn't need to maintain the top position as the last season. But they should be in the top 4 (UCL zone) at least. And Napoli shouldn't get difficulty against small teams like Bologna and Genoa. We know that Napoli still has Osimhen, Kvaratskhelia, Zielinski, and Rrahmani. With these players, Napoli should play better than the 2 last matches in Serie A.
