Milan - Inter Milan
In the past three weeks, none of the teams has played against any powerful team. Lecce, Cagliari, Udinese all were weak opponents for Inter Milan. However Milan had also weak opponents but they lost the first match against Udinese and I think Inter Milan has bigger chance to win this match. For both teams, this game is the first match against a powerful team.
My prediction is 2-0 Inter Milan.

Well, a new round of Serie A just started with Cagliari vs Genoa. I went for a home win @2.83 + somer other results in different leagues for a nice parlay. I feel like i'm tempting fate since last week Cagliari gave a me a pretty nice win, don't know if that could be the case again today.


A good bet and hopefully a home win can be reached.
Until the first half is finished, there has been no goals created by both teams. Looking at the statistics of the first half, Cagliari still dominated the attack. Hopefully the second half will be a change for both teams. And certainly you hope your bets win.

Congratulations on your win!
Thanks, Harko.

Btw, huge game tomorrow: AC Milan vs Inter Milan. Any early comments on this one? Feels like everyone's expecting Inter to destroy AC Milan, but in these type of matches, the game could go either way.

A bittersweet first matchday for our Serie A teams representing us in the Champions League. Napoli is the only team that had impressed and made an upset victory against Liverpool. While the other three teams failed to win their first match. Inter came out short and got away with a lucky draw against Slavia Prava. Juventus didn't manage to win as well against Ateltico Madrid where Madrid scored at the 90th minute mark. And now we have Atalanta getting destroyed by a Russian team, Dinamo Zagreb, on a 4-0 loss. I really didn't expect Inter and Juventus to have this kind of performance especially if they are the ones who have spend a lot during the transfer window. Lets just hope that their second match could bring some light for Serie A.

Any specific reason for it or only your opinion?
I'm an experienced Football Manager player Grin
There is only one scenario for DeGea, stay in Manchester United until 30s and then go back to his home country (Spain), most likely joining Real Madrid, and end his career there.

Sometimes I played as MU manager and tried to convince DeGea to end his career here at MU, but he refused, and I respect his decision.


Inter Milan is so strong with Conte as manager. I hope Jose Mourinho will come to Italy next season, joining Juve or Napoli.

It should be very entertaining.

Btw, Spal 2 - 1 Lazio  Shocked  wtf?

Congratulations on your win!

Looks like we could be in another upset tonight with newly promoted Lecce are ahead against Torino, but it's only halftime so maybe there could be some comeback.

This is football, anything can happen in the field.
If you look at the facts, Torino has a great chance of winning. Lecce is a promotion team that is ranked below the standings, can surprise supporters of Torino. Even Torino can only score through penalty points.

There is nothing wrong in this match. Lecce or Torino have the right to win. As you said, anything can happen in football. Well, that's the situation in the match.

With Lecce winning, he proved that ranking below the standings could also compete with teams over Italy. But unfortunately, Lecce 3 points did not help them to rise above.

Juve form is actually not that surprising. On their last five games (friendlies included), they only managed to win with one margin or 'luck' (such as with Napoli). IMO it's a sign that they need to improve their goal-scoring ability. In fact, Fiorentina managed to create more chances and shot on target compared to Juventus. Fiorentina also has more corners (10 compared to 0!), which is somewhat amazing for the home team[1].

If you only look at stats alone, Fiorentina was expected to win, with more than 1 expected goals (which means they could've scored more than 2 goals if luck was on their side)[2]. Juve xG was very low, it's nowhere near 0.5 which is their lowest xG ever on this season. This is certainly a problem for Juve. Can't depends on luck forever. On the other hand, good job for Fiorentina.

I believe that juventus lacks of a leader in the season start.
Last year they had the captain Chiellini but as the captain is injured they are weak.
Ronaldo can be a leader but I don't see him taking the initiative...

Espanyol ML / Sevilla ML / Cagliari to Win and over 1.5 goals - parlay @36.10



Well, thank you, Cagliari, for putting an end to my losing streak  Cheesy  after Parma score I thought they were going to make a comeback, but fortunately, Cagliari were pretty good on the defence, recent signing Giovanni Simeone put the 3-1, but 12 min of added time still kept me at the edge of my seat.

Btw, Spal 2 - 1 Lazio  Shocked  wtf?

I think the match between Juventus and Fiorentina was the worse match for Juventus in the past 5 Years.

In the time Inter won and now they are leading the League. It could be a good bet for the title.

That is indeed very surprising. I don't think that Juventus will play Draw when against Fiorentina. It's very appropriate now that Inter is leading the Serie A standings now. This season is really difficult for Juventus to maintain Serie A as before.

Juventus really should win and get 3 points. Imagine, Fiorentina who are ranked below could have been able to draw with Juventus. This still proves that Juventus must be prepared with a great rival in Serie A, one of which is Inter.

Nothing went on the right side, Juventus is lucky with the draw.
2 players injured( Pjanic and D.Costa) they probably will skip Atletico on Champions, 1 shoot on the door and nothing else.
I hope this only a case with a hot day, international matches with national teams or this year it will be a hard year.

Maybe Indeed Juventus dominance is about to come to an end this season, Derby matches like the ones against Fiorentina used to be a one sided affair.

In the time Inter won and now they are leading the League. It could be a good bet for the title.
Conte's army as I would rather call them now, remain my favorites for the title this year.

They lost 2 key players that add value in the starting lineup, but I believe that Sarri will find a way to cover their positions.
The Champions league game would be a difficult one but a draw is a result that fits both teams.

DeGea's contract expires in June 2020, if it does not renew in this 8 months on July 2020 1st, he can leave Manchester for free.
DeGea isn't going to leave England for Italy mate. Most likely he will choose Spain (his country), perhaps Madrid or Barcelona, and end his career there.

Pogba
You can take that guy, no one in Manchester would complain Grin


Bet?

Code:
Fiorentina vs Juventus
Napoli vs Sampdoria
Inter Milan vs Udinese
Genoa vs Atalanta
Brescia vs Bologna
Parma vs Cagliari
Spal vs Lazio
Roma vs Sassuolo
Verona vs AC Milan
Torino vs Lecce

My bet is going to go at Inter Milan vs Udinese.
I am going to bet for Inter as I expect them to continue their great performance. I think they are going to hit a good position in the league this season, better than last season and why not compete with Juventus for the title.

Fiorentina 0 - 0 Juventus

Well, didn't expect this game to end without goals (i had over 1.5 in a parlay), especially with Ribery, CR7, Higuain, Chiesa, etc, on the pitch. Btw, embarrassing performance from Juventus, yikes.

And bad news for Juve: Danilo, Pjanic, and Douglas Costa, are injured and could possibly miss the Champions League debut against Atletico next week.

Pogba would definitely leave united, I doubt if he is happy playing for united anymore, going back to juve yet again isn't bad and it'll be a great addition, but I doubt if Pogba has what it takes to win the ballon d'or.


The Juventus Pogba got everything needed for aiming to that.

2014 22°    Paul Pogba 22yo

2015 15°    Paul Pogba 23yo

He went to ManU shortly after and lost his way. (According to Wikipedia)

Pogba was amazing with Juventus. That was a reason that he was the most paid player in the world.

If Juventus will pay 15m /y to him, he will leave even tomorrow.

#Pogback? Yes please, he can win the Ballon d'Or here.
De gea has always been enthusiastic to go to Spain, Madrid to be precise, but I doubt how possible that is right now as Madrid have already bought courtois recently and there is no way they will be spending another huge amount on a goalkeeper soon.
I do not know if juventus are interested in de gea, but if they are, it looks a sound move to me and one that could be tempting to the player, juve are a top top club remember.
