We have 2 big games and it can change the destiny of the next Champions League.
In the Coppa Italia tonight, it was a really great match for Juventus undoubtedly. They literally tore Sampdoria apart by their performance and the result they got. Juventus won by 4-1 and it wouldn't have made me surprised if they won by even a bigger score difference. I have never seen Juventus playing this much effective in attacking until this match. They showed their best performance and the supporters would like to see it continuing in the Serie A also. We saw the old spirit of Juventus in this match for sure.
It means that Juventus goes to the quarter finals and here Juventus is more fortunate to have to fight the winner between Sassuolo vs Cagliari
While Inter must fight the winner between Roma vs Lecce which I'm sure Roma will win the more interesting waiting for who goes to the final
I suspect that Inter can take all the trophies this season and 2 trophies have been secured.
I also have some doubts about it. Inter already won the Super Cup title by winning against Juventus by a dramatic goal. And now, they have the Serie A, Coppa Italia and Champions League ahead. I don't think that they can focus on each one of these tournaments equally. And among them, I think that they would run the risk of being eliminated in the Coppa Italia. And it would be the wise choice for them in case they are in a dilemma. So in this case, Juventus might win the Coppa Italia if they perform like now.
I think they should focus on one.
For UCL their chances are quite small because their opponent is Liverpool.
I think they will inevitably give up UCL in this case

it is surprising that juventus has scored 4 goals, it seems to me that they are recovering without cristiano ronaldo, this is a good thing, they are in position 5 and they can still improve to be in position 2 or 3. as a fan of juventus I still have this hope, Of course, there can still be a miracle for them to be champions. 
Juventus managed to win quite a lot from sampdoria in last match, but if you compare this season with last season it is clear that losing ronaldo has a big effect on the goal productivity of juventus now, currently juventus are in 5th position and they they have a big chance to shift the position atlanta who are above them now, it looks like what you say might happen if juventus can continue to maintain their performance, of course it will not be difficult to penetrate at least to rank 3 at the end of the season later.On the other hand, this will be a good source of enthusiasm and motivation to wade through Serie A because indeed they will face Milan next week.
I think with Juventus' 2 wins in Serie A and the Italian Cup it will have a big impact on their players at least their motivation will be lifted
Speaking of which, Juventus were wonderful in their Coppa Italia match also last night. They deserved even a bigger win than this but it must still be a very satisfying score for them. Sampdoria should be grateful for not conceding more than 4 goals in this match. And today, Inter are having a match home against Empoli. As for Empoli, they are one of the decent Serie A clubs at least for this season. But there is still a big strength gap between them and Inter. I think Inter won't be making any mistake.
I think that the Milan - Juventus game in four days will be really fun. Milan are having a solid season like the last season now. But their main problem is inconsistency recently. They don't maintain as good form as Inter's. And this helps Inter get away from them easier. Milan got an astonishing result against Spezia and they will want to atone for this embarrassing loss. And when it comes to Juventus, they are already doing great recently. They didn't have any loss for a quite long time. And they will want to get at least a draw here. But I'll be favouring Milan to win this game.
This season it is difficult to understand what are the results of Juventus. They are very fickle. Some days they play incredibly well, others they play poorly. So it's hard to say whether they win or not. So, in this game Milan ends up having some advantage. But if Juventus come in very motivated, they could very well win.
Even when both played on 20th Sept 21, they ended up with draw with 1:1. And though Milan is on top above Juventus with high wins, Juventus is bit better than Milan when compared to recent last 5 matches. Milan has own 3 matches out of 5 and lost 2 matches. But Juventus has own 4 matches and drawn one match. But yes when seen overall matches, Milan has been consistent in its best performances. The match is going to be interesting to see both best teams play with each other. Waiting for it.

Ronaldo left a long time ago but Juventus also spent a lot of time losing with small teams they had a very bad performance, that's why I mentioned ronaldo. but even when ronaldo was at juventus they were having a bad performance, i remember they lost against porto in the european champions league, in a game where they could have won.
Well their biggest strong point currently Is in defense
Well their biggest strong point currently Is in defense
I think in the beginning of the season was the start of an adaptation for Juventus, because they lost Ronaldo and the absence of several key players. Now, Allegri has shown that the period of dependence with Ronaldo is over, they can rise to break the dominance of the 3 teams under Inter, Napoli, Milan and Atalanta. If, Inter and other then has difficulty in the rest of the season, there could be a surprise from Juventus with their consistency which in my opinion is much better.
Milan is not consistent, they win some game and then they lose and they have a very bad defense, if Juventus could get a good attacker, Juventus would be very strong and it wouldn't take long to be at the top, the only problem is in the attack
next game we will have Milan - Juventus, we will see who will win

I have long expected from Juventus the stability that he showed earlier in Serie A. I think you are right, one of the reasons for the decline in the team was the departure of Ronaldo. All the same, I believe that Bufon and Ronaldo were strong leaders in the team, now they are not in the team, and the team requires a leader who can lead the team behind him. Alegri is a very good coach and he will be able to improve the game, but I still think that Juventus needs a strong goalkeeper and a stronger attacking line, despite the fact that Juventus has scored a lot of goals in recent matches.

On the next game week, Inter and Napoli are going to have very comfortable games against Venezia and Salernitana respectively. It looks like Inter will continue to win and Napoli will maintain a winning streak also. But I won't be able to say the same thing for Milan. Because after getting a shocking defeat against Spezia in San Siro, their next game is going to be another home game against Juventus this time. This is one of the most difficult games for them now because Juventus are wonderful now. But Milan would do their best to win this of course and I hope they make it not to fall behind Inter too much.
This will be the central match of the tour. Both teams need points and the one who loses will lose not just 3 points, but also a place in the standings - if Milan loses, then Napoli will overtake them, but if Juventus, then at least Fiorentina with a game in reserve will catch up with it. It is quite interesting that the bookmakers give the teams equal odds - 2.70 and 3.35 for a draw.

Juventus is still trying and struggling to overcome the attacking problem since Ronaldo left them.
My concern now is about Dybala, as per last news I read sometime ago he is still not willing to sign a new contract.
If there is no agreement between Dybala and Juventus especially about salary, I think Juventus will let him go and it will be another problem for Juventus.
Dybala has just found his best form back after he played irregularly since Ronaldo come and due to injury.
Losing Dybala due to contract agreement will be a big lost for Juventus.

Juventus are in a really good recovery phase for now. In the Sampdoria game, they had fifteen shots on goal, of which only four were scored. They put pressure very well against their opponents, they could score more goals.Juventus have been in the last 5 games in the league, the points are very good if they can continue like this, they can become the league champions.
Juventus depended a lot on Ronaldo while he was with them and after he left, I felt like they were struggling very hard for scoring each goal, even Dybala was also out of form.
But I'm glad that they scored 4 against Sampdoria and took 15 shots. This clearly indicates the attacking football they are playing right now. I'm hoping they will finish top 4.
On the next game week, Inter and Napoli are going to have very comfortable games against Venezia and Salernitana respectively. It looks like Inter will continue to win and Napoli will maintain a winning streak also. But I won't be able to say the same thing for Milan.

Inter and Napoli should be winning quite easily as their opponents are a bit lower-tiered compared to them. I hoping that both of them will be able to continue their winning streak but a tough match for Milan. Juventus scored 4 in their last game so it means that we are up for a competitive game up ahead.

Max return makes sense and despite of some unstable performance in early phase of season, Juventus and Max are doing good things. Together, they bring back the domination of Juventus in Serie A. With Juventus' latest form, I am sure that all teams in Serie A will have to be fearful or at least very carefully when their opponent is Juventus.It is unofficial recognition of Juventus improvement under Max management. I think if they can have 2 to 3 good transfer in the summer, next season, Max will be able to bring Juventus back to Scudetto competition. He is smart and has enough experience to do this for Juventus. On player side, Juventus have good players but they must keep Dybala in the club. He is very important for them now and in this season, Dybala does not have many injuries and does not miss too many matches.
Ronaldo left a long time ago but Juventus also spent a lot of time losing with small teams they had a very bad performance, that's why I mentioned ronaldo. but even when ronaldo was at juventus they were having a bad performance, i remember they lost against porto in the european champions league, in a game where they could have won.

I honestly do not really know which is more surprising. That Juventus can score 4 goals,,, or that they can concede 3.
Or even more surprising was when Atalanta and Inter both could not find even a single goal between them.
Anyway, Ronaldo has long gone, no need to talk about him unless you are a United fan discovering why Ronaldo is actually bad for you
