Topic: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) - page 450. (Read 825316 times)

after last week Lazio won 4-1 over Salernitana, this time they narrowly won 1-0 over Genoa, their next opponent is Juventus and i'm sure this will not be an easy match.

in another match, Juventus were held to a draw by Cagliari, Cagliari were lucky because they got 2 penalties in the 30th and 36th minutes, if there was no own goal scored by Dossena in the 87th minute then Juventus would be the team that would lose to Cagliari.  Juventus is still in 3rd position with 62 points and it is difficult for them to be in 2nd position chasing Milan.

Fail to win Scudetto in a season when they don't have to play in Champions League or Europa League, it is a serious failure for Juventus. They can not satisfy that ending this season at a third position is a success. They have to try to keep it to reduce their severity of failure in this season.

With recent results of Italian, German and English clubs in Champions League, Europa League and Conference League, Serie A and Bundesliga have very high advantage to complete this season at two highest rankings. If they achieve it, Serie A and Bundesliga will have five clubs in Champions League 2024 - 2025. With very high probability for it to happen, AS Roma will mainly focus on Europa League than on rest matches in Serie A.

If they win Europa League, they will also have a direct given ticket to Champions League and don't need to complete this season at either fourth or fifth position in Serie A.

Third place could be quite possible for Juventus to secure this season, especially now that there are only a few matches remaining. But I was surprised when I saw that Roma, who is ranked fifth in the Serie A standings, had entered the UCL zone too. Am I wrong or are the rules like that now so that Roma doesn't need to be tired of trying to get into the Champions League next season if they can stay in the top five until the end of the season?

As for Napoli itself, the team actually still has a chance and opportunity to get a top six ranking so that it can immediately enter the European League next season. However, Lazio and Atalanta are also doing well at the moment so this is still an obstacle for Napoli in taking sixth and seventh positions in the current standings.

Juventus has continued to get less than optimal results in the last few matches, including the last match they played against Cagliari. In fact, I see them as very lucky in this match because they got an own goal from their opponent which could make them equalize in the final minutes of the match. This is the 10th draw they have achieved this season.

Their chances of being in the top 4 in the standings are still big, but they also have to be able to improve their current performance. The decline they are experiencing is not a good thing for them, because they are still in danger of being displaced by the team that is currently below them. The coach must think of a strategy so that they can be even better in the next match so that they again achieve the desired result, namely victory. Honestly, their performance has clearly decreased from their performance at the start of the season.

Juventus failed to secure three points on last match and little doubt the opportunity will get top fourth standings place in this season depend with Bologna and AS Roma match result this week will get three points or not. Juventus failed to achieve two wins in the last two matches when they were held to draws by Torino and Cagliari, Bologna and AS Roma face each other this week and being draw result for this match is better for Juventus get secure their position but have to win on six matches later.

I doubt with Juventus will get one place for qualifying to champion league? has three difficult matches left against AC Milan, Roma and Bologna are not easy match to get three points and secure champion league spot.

There was actually a big chance that Juventus was going to lose the match against Cagliari. Cagliari missed a lot of chances. Otherwise, it would definitely have been a loss for Juventus. Juventus also was given a gift of an own goal. Otherwise, again it could have been a loss for Juventus. It has been a pretty bad run in recent weeks for Juventus.

If people are saying that the coach of Juventus is going to be fired, I definitely see a point. And I actually have been defending the coach of Juventus a lot and still probably want to do that. But if you are not getting good results, it is really hard to defend a coach. there is still a huge chance that Juventus will not finish in the third position that they are in right now. And the way they are performing, there is definitely a chance for them to actually finish outside the top four as well. Even though that chance is very slim, it is there.

Juventus can secure a place in the Champions League next season with all the efforts they have made so far. Recently they have often failed to secure full points.
In the last two matches, they were only able to get 2 points from the draws they got against Torino and Cagliari. Even so, they have secured third position this season.

For AS Roma, that's how it was as long as De Rossi was head coach. They continue to get positive results... We are waiting for Napoli to get full points so they can continue to compete for 7th position so they can appear in the European Conference League.

As I said before, the chances are currently very positive because apart from the mental, player factors and schedules that are less than Milan at this time, Inter are clearly more favored especially when they play home, which of course adds to the optimism they have.
Not to underestimate Milan in this case but there are indeed some advantages that Inter have to date that make their conditions still very favorable for this Milan Derby.

But even if in the end there is another possibility where they cannot party in next week's match it will not interfere with their condition which will still bring the trophy this season. So that I personally actually don't matter whether Inter will party this week or next week because it will still be the same, it's just that the difference may be when fighting rivals and being able to win then indeed the sensation is greater.

It's very embarrassing from Juventus because that game should have been a match for them to take the all three points. Very sad to see them playing without pattern of play nowadays, they kick the ball and run around hopelessness. There is no longer team work but rather individual playing on their own. Juventus was never like this during Allegri first tenure but everything is taking opposite direction at the moment. The players have quality and potential but something is definitely wrong somewhere and perhaps firing Allegri will bring back their spirit. Fortunately, they have secured a spot in the top four but if things continue like this till next season, playing in European competition will be a dream unfulfilled. It's now a norm for Juventus to either draw a match or lose the match, there is no that winning mentality again. The future is not really bright and something need to be done urgently as against next season because this season is already wasted.

Juventus lost points once again... The last part of the season has been going on really terrible for them so far. We are quite near the end of the season of course so I guess Juventus wouldn't be that bad to lose their Champions League chance at least.    Besides there is a Roma - Bologna game as well this week. An advantageous result in that one would be useful for Juventus.

Roma - Bologna is going to be really lovely to watch.    De Rossi has improved Roma's game quite much however Bologna have no joke on their Champions League chase either. Rather than betting on a side to win, I'd prefer BTTS for this match.

 Empoli play hosts to Serie A out of favor Napoli and I'm sure this is a game that will prove if Francesco Calzona will get to keep his job as coach of the club considering their less than satisfactory performance to Frosinone last week were they had an early goal lead only to mess up and settle for a draw in the end.
 Empoli have only managed to win only one of their last five home games this season and I'm feeling they might want to change that today since smaller clubs seem to have confidence whenever they play Napoli these days as they (Napoli) aren't much of a force to reckon with anymore.
Napoli have found it difficult to keep clean sheets in their last 13 games, and I wonder how they will show superiority if they can't maintain small records like this.
The two sides do not have an impressive record as in their last five games they've only managed one win and may be looking to upset the other in today's game, I just hope for Calzona's sake his side will come out the better one.

Verona vs Udinese

This is the fight between the teams who have same target that whether it Udinese or Verona want to avoiding relegated zone but unfortunately the performance of them is not getting better for each week and these teams even has same statistics too because in the last 5 matches Udinese and Verona only can collect 1 win and about head to head statistics i can see both teams is equally strong because in the last 5 meeting Udinese and Verona can get 1 win each and 3 draw

For this match i can see Verona is in the good shape because all of their players will be available today but for Udinese probably they will lost Florian Thauvin and Sandi Lovric and about the outcomes of this match i can see based on their previous meeting that both teams can playing draw several times and i am thinking there is possibility too this match today will ended to draw again especially the recent performance from both teams also not so different and for betting option draw has high odds @3.20 or if doubt i think under 2.5 goal could be safe bets

Cagliari have the opportunity to take a good record from the match, because they where leading the match 2-0 through out the first half before Juventus manage to equalized the goals in the second half to draw the match 2-2 in the home of Cagliari. Juventus are really lacking in the area of midfield and defense in this period, because their defenders are very weak these days to make the defense stronger to some teams these days than to allow their opponent to draw or defeat them sometimes, and their fans are not happy with what is happening now to Juventus. Juventus has dropped down to third position in Italian league table, base on their poor performance in this season, I think their manager need to start searching for potential players he will sign in when summer season comes, so that he can use them to replace some players.

for a popular team like Juventus to share the score for a draw is very embarrassing and on the one hand at the start of last season Juventus looked very enthusiastic and more consistent but towards the end of the season Juventus became weaker as they lost their mentality of competing with other top teams even against teams that were from the top bottom of the standings are also unable to get 3 points.
we can't blame anyone here but we have to look deeper into what the problem actually is because I think Allegri as Juventus coach has tried his best for the team and we also need to see if there are any players who have problems with Allegri that affect their performance on the field.

In accordance with the prediction I said at that time, betting on Juventus winning with small odds in this match is very risky and not equivalent to the risk we are taking and if we bet on BTTS, there will definitely be a lot of bettors who will win their bets in this match.

At the start of the season Juventus performed very well until half of the season and after that they started to appear with slow decline in performance and this resulted in decline in their position in the standings.
Initially Juventus was considered strong enough candidate to win the title this season but in reality now all of that is just hope that has failed or cannot be realized by Juventus.
They are left behind by Inter Milan who is at the top of the standings, even chasing AC Milan who is in second place feels quite difficult for Juventus.

Today Juventus achieved another disappointing result only against Cagliari, which is lower middle class team, Juventus were unable to win the final result was draw 2 - 2.
This was their own fault because they were too careless which resulted in Cagliari having 2 goals penalties and worse, Juventus almost lost.
If there is no own goal then Juventus will suffer truly embarrassing defeat, I quite disappointed with this result.

This Juventus team isn't showing any seriousness. They lack passion, fight, and style, and it's partly the fault of the management and Allegri. Constantly changing the lineup game after game isn't helping either. They're nowhere near the greatness of the old teams. It's disappointing to see.
Bad luck for Cagliari, dropping two valuable points. It seems like Juventus are content with even a draw, as if it's a victory. Hopefully, there will be a complete turnaround next season. This season has been nothing but negative for the team.

After starting the season unbeatable, Juventus is struggling in must-win games. Things change so swiftly. Both penalties were gut punches. In reality, Cagliari wasn't great either. Dossena's own goal deadened them at that time.

Juventus may recover, but it's unlikely. Cagliari proved they can compete with the big dogs; they only need to improve their defence. Thus, what must Juventus do to regain momentum? They have skill, but their system is dysfunctional. It's mindset? Coaching? Are they stressed? No longer can they remedy individual problems; they must fix the overall picture.

Juventus' Twitter admin will have prepared a farewell message for Allegri like "THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING"! Juventus is getting another shit after Cagliari forced them to draw, which is extremely bad. I never understand why Allegri continues to use three midfielders when Juventus is consistently performing poorly and he must change the tactic caused by this is gonna help juventus in regaining its performance.
I believe Allegri should have changed his strategy to reduce the number of midfielders to two and then play the remaining players up front. Allegri is constantly doing shit, which is why I believe Juventus should appoint conte as a new coach considering conte is always having good result in juventus.

Juventus must be embarrassed by this horrible result caused by the old lady played the game like shit against cagliari. It's time to let Allegri leave from the club. Allegri was once again unable to help Juventus defeat a club far below them which is so crazy. Damn! i never expect it to happen this badly. This is a shameful result for Juventus because their squad is superior to Cagliari's.
FYI, Juventus would have lost the game if Cagliari's player had not scored an own goal, which helped Juventus earn a point. As Roma and Bologna will soon take Juventus' place.

The match was definitely dominated by Lazio, 2nd consecutive win for them. 0-1 win, the result was pretty much expected. Maybe I did expect Lazio to score more than one in this match. But I think that. As long as they are getting the three points, I think they will be fine. The goal difference of Lazio is really bad by the way. especially considering the fact that they are in the sixth position of the table. But I guess that is not the main priority right now. The main priority is to get three points from any matches that they can. There is a chance that they will finish in the fifth position but it is definitely going to be really hard. but at the same time certainly not impossible. And that's what they will be thinking right now.

Good news has come to the serie a. The league will get 5 UCL spots starting from the upcoming season. Lazio has a chance to qualify for the europa league this season since it needs to finish at the 6th place in order to secure a spot participate in the europa league. Lazio was winning the game by acquiring one goal through luis alberto.

It's a very good move for lazio caused by the chance to participate in europa leagueis getting bigger after it was winning the last game. Glad to see lazio thrashed genoa even with narrow score.

Shit happens when kamada was giving a beautiful assist to the his teammates. It has become a key for lazio in scoring against genoa.
