-The best team of 2017 is Napoli with an incredible average. Napoli deserves to win Scudetto for all the points made
-Excellent average also for Juventus and Roma.
-The surprise of 2017 is certainly Atalanta.
-Ac Milan,instead, was disappointing

I think that this season of Serie A, the most interesting in the last five years exactly. It is unfortunate that such a great club like Milan can not compete with the leaders of Seria A.

Exactly, it is becoming a two horse race in recent seasons and the earlier the other teams in Italy try hard and add to the competition the better because the Italian league just like the french and German bundesliga are becoming too predictable and less competitive.

it's always have been a Chase like a cat and a mouse between these two Napoli and Juventus and at the end the scudetta goes to the old lady. Inter had the opportunity to be in the same league with them two but recent games left them little bit behind it's still possible for them to get back closer because Juventus and Napoli have European engagements also some reinforcement this winter will be great to add some depth in the squad and also prepare the team for next year challenges I'm hearing that Deulofeu wants a move and Inter is a possible destination he was good in the Premier League and the Italian league as well, but he could not keep up with Barcelona and he had a lot of pressure to prove himself in the line of attack.

The Serie A stops for 15 days (will start again on 21 January).
Roma and Inter have slowed down, and therefore Napoli and Juventus (with an advantage of at least 8 points) definitely seem the only 2 claimants for the victory.
Inter, Roma and Lazio will play the last 2 places useful for the champion's league.

incredible the Benevento, which seemed almost to lose all games, with 2 consecutive wins is only 8 points from the permanence in Serie A.

The match between Cagliari vs Juventus is still going on, first-half Juventus still struggling to score so with Cagliari. But I'm sure Juventus can win this game because Juventus are required to always win the game in order to keep their points with the top of the Serie A standings at this time so that they will someday if Napoli comes to a halt when they can replace the top position in the standings.

Napoli to win the league with 6 points clear
Intermilan 2nd
Juventus 3rd
Ac milan or roma to came third

the negative period for Inter continues.
Only 3 points scored in the last 5 games played in Serie A.
Inter seems tired and in bad shape and has no strong substitutes.
Now it seems out of the fight for the Scudetto that seems to be a duel between Juventus and Napoli.

Derby Turin a few years is always dominated by Juventus, the difference in the quality of players owned by two clubs from the city of Turin is indeed very much different and Juventus is superior to Torino. With the current squad of Juventus, I think there is no team from Serie A that can match the luxury of the Juventus squad even the squad they have is worthy to defend the Serie A title this season even though they are now in second place in the standings.
Although the derby yesterday was not a Serie A match, the match was a cure from the fans' longing to watch his beloved team play.

Juventus easily won against Torino (Mijailovic, the new coach is Mazzarri) and qualified for the semifinals.

here are the 2 semi-finals of the Italy cup:
Juventus vs Atalanta and Milan vs Lazio. the matches will be played on 31/01 and 28/02.

I expect the final between Ac Milan and Juventus

Surprisingly eliminated Napoli in the Italy Cup against Atalanta!
Atalanta will play in the semi-final against the winner between Juventus and Torino.
The other semi-final is Ac Milan vs Lazio

Napoli seems to want to get out of all competitions to focus 100% for the victory of the Serie A.
I am convinced that Napoli will win the Scudetto this year but if it does not win for Napoli this will be a bankrupt season.

Your confidence will soon come true because Juventus only stay consistent in every game of course end the game with a win and they wait for Napoli slip to get a defeat or a draw in one game. But, if both teams are consistent always win in every game then Juventus only need to beat Napoli when they meet again later.

They are in a great shape and wish they will be able to maintain their lead on the table over Juventus even after the break because the Scudetto just like the bundesliga and the french league 1 is becoming a one force dominant league and the Napoli can keep it competitive until AC Milan, Inter ,Roma  and the rest find their past glory days again/

Napoli have been doing great this season currently they are in top form with four wins in row and their last defeat was last month against Juventus 1-0 so they have a good chance tomorrow to win at home against Atlanta as the visitors are not as good this season then last one they are currently ninth in the league with 27points they are still doing not too bad but a game away from home against the the current strongest team in Italy will not go so good for them but it's a cup match and Atalanta don't have a lot to lose so I expect an open game with a number of goals scored so we will get an over 2.5 goals as outcome for this match.

I really don't think that Napoli is going to win the title anymore, i wish they could but with what's going on here, I am doubting it very much especially now that Juventus are just a point away from them. Inter Milan have also been disappointing these last few weeks and am sure they are out of the title run.

Although Juventus won their final match in 2017 they still can not win the Serie A standings from Napoli, I'm still waiting for Napoli to slip in 2018 so that Juventus can snatch the top of Serie A.

Benevento have finally done it, they have ended the year on a high note after they won their first game of the season against Chievo Verona. Massimo Coda gave Benevento the only goal of the match in the 64th minute which gave them their first win. At least they have won a game.

Juventus closing match for the year is against Verona. I think this is a match that probably will not be difficult for Juventus because I think the quality of the team that became his opponent today is far below them. I feel that this match will be a goal ball for Juventus and maybe even Juventus will do the rotation to give an opportunity to the players who are often on the bench.

There was no goal between Inter Milan against Lazio, the game ended with a draw. Honestly this game is quite interesting. The match goes balanced, attacking each other and defending well. Unfortunately there is no goal created, I think this is a minor result for Inter Milan, although against Lazio, but winning at home is a must.
