Napoli have now changed from an elite Serie A club to a mediocre club, their decline in performance has been so fast and so significant. Personally, I think that Napoli chances of finishing in the European zone are becoming increasingly difficult, because in the remaining 5 matches they will not be consistent in securing full points. Napoli have at least three tough matches ahead, they have to face Roma, Fiorentina and Bologna and have the potential to lose points again. Simply put, they were unable to beat Empoli, it is natural to assume that Napoli will have difficulty beating these three tough opponents.

Changing coaches is an obligation for Napoli management next season, they have to find the right person like Spalletti, so they can compete again as a team challenging for the title. But the challenge going forward is to maintain the main squad, because Osimhen is reported to be leaving next season. Regarding Atalanta, they have the potential to disrupt the competition between Roma and Bologna, and they also have a big chance of playing in the Europa League next season.

After losing at home to Empoli, now the Napoli team has to move back down to the top eight, which is a very weak position for them this season. Napoli is too late to improve their team now because there is not much left of the season, although it is also not wrong for the team to try to improve the performance of a team that is so weak now that they are even very doubtful of being relied on in any match this season. And for Napoli fans, don't be discouraged when you have to accept the bitter reality that has happened to Napoli this season.

I agree with you because for now Fiorentina has been doing well even if they may not have been on a more higher position but they keep pushing for more better position and just like you said there last three matches has been good for them because they have not recorded any losing from those match, however regarding there match against Salernitana is obvious Fiorentina will win the match because from the last 15 matches for Salernitana they have not been able to record any wining instead they kept on losing, so there is no way they will escape from Fiorentina on this match because is a free point for Fiorentina.

Napoli will have a very active summer in a negative meaning. Coach and players will be changed a lot and it will affect their preparation and strength for a next season. With growths of Roma, Atalanta and maybe Bologna, Napoli will have many difficulties to get in top four of Serie A next season. They maybe need some seasons to return to top four and I am skeptical that they will achieve a position in a next season.

Their quick collapse in this season is very surprising even I did not believe they will defend their Scudetto successfully, I did not imagine that they will be out of top four, top six like this.

Atalanta will meet Marseille in Europa League semi finals and they have fair chance to beat the French opponent to have a first final match in Europa League. Have a first final match in Europe is actually a milestone for an average club like Atalanta and it is a continuation of their club's development growth last ten years. Some seasons ago, they made impression in Champions League and now they are going to have a first final match in Europe.

In Serie A, Atalanta still have a task to beat Roma and get a fifth position that is very likely to give them a ticket of participation in Champions League 2024 - 2025 based on ranking of Serie A against Bundesliga and Premier League.

Now Napoli is just an average team because they lost again to a weak team like Empoli and this is their second defeat against this opponent this season. Napoli not only failed to defend the title but also failed to remain a competitive team this season. Their opportunity to get a spot in the European competition was wide open but now it is very difficult because Lazio and Atalanta will certainly not waste the opportunity that is open to them.
I'm pretty sure Napoli will change coaches again at the start of the season to change this team for the better next season.

Atalanta seems to be on the right track at the moment after successfully qualifying for the semifinals of the European League, and with the advantage of two matches yet to be played, Atalanta has the opportunity to overtake Lazio because their opponent today is Monza a team which does not have a good record when facing Atalanta, so my prediction is that Atalanta will won three points today and opened competition with Roma and Bologna.

AS Roma are competing with two clubs for a fourth or fifth positon, Bologna and Atalanta. They certainly want to take a fourth position from Bologna but they can not let their eyes off Atalanta. Differences between Roma against Bologna and Atalanta are either less or more but with very small differences. With 6 matches left, there will be enough for changes in rankings of three clubs.

The match with Bologna tomorrow will be key for Roma's chance to get a fourth position from this competitor. If they lose to Bologna, it's nearly an ending for their attempt to get a fourth position and even put Roma to a bigger pressure from Atalanta. A draw is still a disappointed result for Roma as it will not help them anything to reduce difference against Bologna.

This is a match that determines for As Roma whether they will be able to open up the opportunity to be in the top 4 or not. Bologna, who will be their opponent in this match, is a team that is currently competing with them for the top 4 position, although if AS Roma wins they will not immediately be able to shift Bologna's position directly, because they are still 4 points away now. But at least a win will make them more confident in being able to shift their position from Bologna.

Bologna will definitely not let AS Roma win this match that easily, because it is clear that AS Roma is a real threat to them. They will really try to get points, even if they can't win then they will try to at least bring home 1 point from As Roma headquarters. It is not easy to predict a match like this, because both teams will also go all out to achieve the results they want. And I also think the chance of a draw is a high chance in a match like this.

It was a very annoying seen empoli scored goal at 4 minutes from Napoli, which many teams use to hold ball in the field for their opponent not to touch the ball until 5 minutes before they will allow their opponent to collect the ball from them. Napoli have many opportunities in the second half to equalized the goal and still add more goals to defeat empoli 1-3, but they play with their opportunity that made empoli to start defending the game to make the match to end up for their favour 1-0 and they make it happened at the end of the match. I think, Napoli formal manager Played a good role to help Napoli to embraced the title last season, since this new manager took over from him, Many things has changed negatively in this season and Napoli has reduced to 8 position in the Italian league table this season.

Usually we are having own goal accidentally where coach or player can't do anything because accident can happen anywhere with any person so in this game while Cagliari were leading by 2–1 against Juventus in last few minutes we have equalizer from the Alberto Dossena which is accidentally done it's not big deal because still they were able to have one point which give them spot into middle of the league table and Juventus having another frustrating result which is creating problems for them while their attack and defense both are fail to give them anything positive in last few games while they are fighting hard for the staying into top three.

Cagliari doing impressive job while they are having now six points from last four matches with having win against Atlanta and draw against Inter Milan and Juventus are amazing for them.

I think Napoli will be able to get points in this match, because their opponent is also a team at the bottom of the table with a performance that is no better than them. However, in reality they had to accept a narrow defeat which meant they couldn't bring home a single point from this match.
Napoli have really declined this season after they won the Scudetto title last season. Even though last season they were a solid team, they couldn't maintain what they showed last season. The coach's departure, the internal problems they are facing are one of the factors why they have not been able to play well lately. And this has even happened since the start of the season, it is really worrying when a team with the status of defending champion has to end sadly this season.

Now it's all on AS Roma how they keep things at the top for staying at fifth spot which is going to allow them for having spot into next season's Champions League ticket even we have Lazio and Atlanta in hunt as well but still Roma is much better side with their performance and consistency which is doing good after the arrival of the De Rossi tomorrow we are going to have two big games at the top with AC Milan will host Inter Milan and Roma is going to host Bologna even we will have no impact on spots of these teams after this match but still things can take good turn in coming matches which are going to be had in coming weeks in this season with most chances Roma will try his best for staying at the top four, but Bologna is also doing good for the good end of this season.

Napoli have been passing through alot lately and this season have been one of the unfortunate season for them. Napoli president, Aurelio De Laurentiis will continue to strive for the important growth of the team but it looks like the more he tries to fixed his team, the more they're actually becoming non threats for oppositions. Every game played currently is a challenge, Napoli no longer relaxed and win matches, instead they will fight for significant positions which is out of line.

After the change of coach from mazzarri to calzona, actually Napoli began to improve in their performance in the league, and even several times we can see if Napoli can easily beat their opponents with a big score, but in recent times it seems that Napoli has again experienced a decline in performance that makes their performance inconsistent in the league, after previously Napoli received negative results from Frosinone,  In fact, now Napoli are throwing away their chances to be able to shift Atlanta's position in 7th place after they failed to win against Empoli, in my opinion at this time it will be difficult for Napoli to be able to enter European competition next season if they do not improve their performance, indeed they are only 6 points behind Roma who are in 4th position,  But with continued bad results, including against weak teams, of course I think playing in Europe will only be a dream for Napoli.

Looking at Napoli's current form, of course it will be difficult for Osimhen to stay in Napoli next season, I think maybe he will continue to get a starting place in Napoli but the failure to play in Europe is certainly not what the current football star expected, the many offers coming to Osimhen at this time he should be able to consider instead of continuing to stay at Napoli without the possibility of competing in the Champions League.

How do you watch the Napoli match? Isn't that very annoying and they even had to bow their heads in shame after Empoli sent them home without taking a single point. I think Napoli are no longer reliable and even in the competition towards the end of the season they are unable to improve their position. I also haven't bet on any Napoli games since a series of poor results at the start of the season and they will continue like this without any deep improvement.

On the other hand, this victory also feels important for Empoli so that they can move away from the relegation zone and with their hard work, they really deserve it. Apart from that, after suffering this defeat, Napoli will still face quite a tough opponent next week, namely Roma and I am sure they will not win.

when a coach achieves success, he will be given praise and even the praise will be lost if he makes a mistake and if a coach is seen to have failed to bring the team to a higher level, he will definitely be given bad criticism, that's how football is.
I will indeed agree with anyone's opinion when Allegri will be fired or retained, but come on, guys, let's not look at Allegri mistakes in just one problem, but let's see how Allegri has given the best for Juventus in the past and even though currently Juventus seems to be having difficulty competing at the top but we have to look at the other side's mistakes and it was not purely Allegri fault.
everyone certainly knows how Juventus was last season when they received a points deduction violation, but in fact Allegri managed to bring Juventus to finish in 7th place after initially being below the top 10 when they received the violation.

but if it is Juventus decision to fire Allegri and that is the best way, maybe it doesn't matter, but at least we have to look at the achievements that Allegri has given Juventus during his time as coach.

Salernitana vs Fiorentina

Fiorentina currently in the good shape because at Conference League they can eliminate Viktoria Plzen with final aggregate 2-0 and this result too will make Fiorentina can able to advances to the semifinal matches and actually Fiorentina recent performance is not really bad because they still unbeatable in the last 3 matches in all competitions and today they will attempt to gets the winning result from Salernitana and improved their position on league table and actually in my opinion it's hard for Fiorentina to finish at European zone but if they can playing more consistent then there is possibility Fiorentina will be finish at the higher position than now

The league still have 6 matches remaining before ended but Salernitana only can collect 15 points from 32 matches this makes Salernitana possibly will be relegated to Serie B and actually Fiorentina gets easy opponent and this is good time for them to collect 3 points and if we see from the squad update between these teams apparently Fiorentina in the good conditions because only M'Bala Nzola who possibly will be absense but other players can be available for match today and i think it's not neccesarry to analysis more because obviously Fiorentina is much better than Salernitana and i am sure Fiorentina can win this match but Fiorentina odds is not high @1.66

Cagliari seemed very clever in taking advantage of this situation by making the Juventus players play a little more aggressively and making the Juventus players commit a foul so that Cagliari could execute a penalty and this happened in the first half in just 6 minutes which made Cagliari take the lead in the first half and they seemed increasingly enthusiastic because they felt they could steal 3 points from Juventus even though there was still a second half which allowed Juventus to put up fierce resistance and it was true that Juventus changed their strategy and immediately counterattacked which made it difficult for Cagliari so they were able to equalize with 2 goals. 1 goal which created a Cagliari player who played less focused and scored an own goal.

Seeing this result is certainly very bad for Juventus, repeatedly losing points against mediocre or weak clubs, even though Juventus has quite a lot of opportunities this season, but Juventus' performance is increasingly disappointing, I don't even think Juventus can win the title, even staying in the top 3 is already a good achievement. Bologna still has 1 match yet to play and they will continue to chase Juventus in 3rd place if Juventus continues to lose a lot of points, who knows what will happen in the end season.

I really agree with you that a coach like that doesn't seem worthy of being in Juventus management and if possible, all the management who are looking for players to play will be fired too, because they are also not very good at finding players who are really good for the Juventus squad. and even the players that the coach wants are always brought in but none meet expectations for this season, even John Elkann will take part in looking for the players that Juventus needs with a new coach next season that I know from several sources, Hopefully this is true that there will be an overhaul of all Juventus management next season..

Empoli has lost their last 6 games, but they end up to gave us a surprised of defeating Napoli at home. Before the match started i doubted Napoli performance against Empoli, despite the fact that Napoli are fighting to get their position among the top before the end of the season. Napoli performance cannot be trusted this season, they draw their last game against Frosinone, who are struggle to get out of the danger zone. Napoli has disappointed their fans a lot this season, they couldn't maintain their winning ways. Napoli lost an important points to reduce the point differential between them and Atalanta. I don't think Napoli will qualify for the next Champions League because they won't get into the top four with their current performance.


We have seen many changes in the Roma performance since De Rossi was appointed. Roma performance has improved, i was even surprised as they defeated Ac Milan both home and away to eliminated them in the Europa League. I'm confident with Roma at this moment, i believe they will win Bologna in their next match to reduce the point gap. Roma will make it to the fourth position before the end of the season.

Almost lose. That happened when Cagliari scored the second goal, but Juventus was very lucky to avoid losing three points due to an own goal by cagliari's players which is also saving juventus's image caused by many people will be mokcing it if juventus would be losing against cagliari as a mediocre team. Juventus' performance has not improved since the middle season it is getting worsening. Things are getting even tougher for Juventus because they must compete with Roma and Bologna for the UCL spot for the upcoming season. Roma and bologna who have been consistently winning the game up to this point being the biggest threat for juventus. Juventus was unable to win against a garbage club like Cagliari, which is a shame. It's an embarrassing result to see Juventus fail to win the game against Cagliari once more.


What point? Juventus's coach deserved to be scaked and that's is. I don't even know why things that makes you think he deserves another chance. Allegri is garbage coach and juventus needs to get rid of him as soon as possible in order to help club to perform better than before.
Old lady will always stuck in the same place if it's still being coached by this garbage coach.
