With the extraordinary results achieved by Bologna and the new format of the Champions League next season, I think Bologna has secured a slot in the Champions League. This new format also benefits As Roma because we always talk about their chances of entering the European league. Lazio still have a chance to make a surprise but I think it will be very difficult. I also want to congratulate Bologna on successfully qualifying for the Champions League. I think the club board should think about looking for several players in the transfer window to add to their strength next season.

With the defeat against Bologna at home, this is clearly Francesco Calzona's failure in handling the Napoli team, currently the Napoli team has to sit in 8th place in the Italian Serie A and at this time it is not safe for Napoli because Fiorentia will do it to get rid of Napoli in order to enter the League European Conference, it is certain that if that happens Napoli will fail miserably this season, their game will decline further, especially the player who was Napoli's star last season, Osimhen. Now this player is no longer discussed in the media because his performance has declined.

With Napoli's failure this season, their management will definitely regret letting Spalletti go, he took the Napoli team very far last season, now this team has slumped, in my opinion in handling Napoli's coaching staff next season there must be new things that can be done to bring the team together. This is advancing to compete to win like last season.

For Napoli this was also an important match, now after this defeat it will not be a problem for Fiorentina to beat them, since Fiorentina have played two fewer matches, so Napoli will almost certainly be left without Euro cups next season. Now in the end of the season, we can appreciate how strong Spalletti's influence was on the team, and now De Laurentiis can assess the situation and admit that he made a mistake.

Did they surprise you? I doubt that everyone was surprised. Bologna eliminated Inter Milan from the Coppa Italia. They also beat Atalanta despite playing away from home. Napoli couldn't win a single game in weeks. I don't really understand where the big surprise is here.

What is much more interesting is how Juventus Turin is drifting down the table. Atalanta is one game behind and Juventus is still playing against Bologna, in Bologna!! If they lose that and Atalanta wins their games, then Atalanta is going through I think. They could still mess this season up and that would be a surprise as nobody would have thought that's possible after they were going so well for so long.

Napoli are very chaotic and maybe this is a bad end to the season for them considering the last 5 matches without ever producing a single win. Napoli had to submit again to Bologna and made Napoli even worse in 8th position with 51 points. I think they can fix this all before the season ends but unfortunately Napoli are still shackled by their previous results and it is very difficult to recover.

Meanwhile for Bologna, this is an important additional 3 points considering that they were finally able to shift the position of Juventus who experienced similar bad results and I think Bologna will really finish in 3rd position this time. They will definitely secure a place in the champions league and Thiago Motta must be very proud of his players' performance so far.

Inter's play is the finest, okay? I've seen these guys play, and they're serious. They could have relaxed after winning the league, but not these men. Hungery. Every game they play, they win big. Five goals against Frosinone? Thats dominating, not simply winning.

Inter wants to be the best, not merely win. I respect that approach, which makes winners. This ambition distinguishes them in Serie A. It makes their games exciting and why everyone's talking about them. If you're betting on Serie A, Inter is the good pick. These guys are on fire and will keep winning, guaranteed. They'll just get stronger, not slow down. Whoever says otherwise isnt smart. Inter is the team to watch.

Bologna indeed surprised everyone yesterday when they went to Napoli and snatched the three points from them. Napoli had all the chances to cancel those two early goals including being awarded a penalty which Matteo Politano missed, unfortunately they could not and this might just cost them the European Conference League spot that they were contesting with Lazio who just need a win in their remaining three matches to secure it. Today Lazio plays Empoli who also desperately need to win the match to evade relegation. Empoli may be able to hold Lazio to a draw but Lazio will likely get a winning against Sassuolo to qualify while Napoli have nothing to show for the season.

Next season's situation can't be roughly predicted by this season's performance because at the end of the day when it comes to Serie A all sorts of unthinkable things happen so we can't predict or believe for sure that next season Inter will be the same as they are now.

Reflecting on the case of Milan after getting the Scudetto they were stranded in 4th position as well as Napoli last season which this season they were even worse than Milan so for Inter next season there is indeed a chance to stay the same considering they are a big club, it's just that another possibility is also where the curse of Serie A after getting the Scudetto then the next season is not according to plan can still happen because the increase and decrease in performance this season with the next season sometimes has too much difference.
 

If what you mean is Bologna, of course this team deserves to be said to be extraordinary this season after successfully placing itself in the Champions League zone and being able to play in the Champions League next season. But Bologna still has to maintain its position from being chased by other teams such as Atalanta who still have more matches remaining so that Atalanta could be close to Bologna's points and even still have the opportunity to surpass Bologna's position if Bologna cannot win all the remaining matches at the end of this season.

Napoli failed to beat Bologna at home.Napoli have been really bad this season.Napoli have been really bad this season.Even their chances of finishing 7th in the league have diminished.The 3 points in this match would have been very important.Bologna are also in a good position in the league and are one of the teams that have really given their opponents a hard time this season.They are 3rd in the league with the most draws among the top teams.I will be very curious to see how Bologna will perform in the champions league next year.They don't have much experience but we know that they will be a surprise team.
Milan, on the other hand, were rained with goals at home against Cagliari.There is not much they can do in the league anymore.They could have played with a reserve team against Cagliari because Cagliari still has the potential to be relegated.

Since beated by Roma few weeks ago Lazio was through an 4 matches in all competitions with unbeated status i think these records impressive considering Lazio performance previously was unstable and currently their position on League Table at 6th place under Roma although it's hard but mathematically is still possible to finish at 5th place or Europa League zone and let see it later whether Lazio can able to managed their consistency until this season ended or not and for today match Lazio will fight against Empoli which on the paper this match should be easy for Lazio

Because less than 10 minutes again the match will begin then the lineup for both teams has been published recently and Lazio still rely on Ciro Immobile for front lines and Felipe Anderson for attacking midfielder and these players so far the key players from Lazio and they regularly almost be played for each matches and if we see from meeting statistics and the performance obviously Lazio is much better than Empoli even the bookmakers also placed them as the favourite with odds @1.66

With how consistent Inter Milan has been on this season there is everything opportunity that there next season will almost be as good as this season because there performance doesn't seem like a club that would lose form anytime soon but however I doubt if they will perform this good on the champions League because there is a big difference between this league and champions league so perhaps it will be more better for them if they will add more players that has more champions league experience so that it will enhance there performance the more.

They have not been the same ever since Luciano Spalletti left the club, they have changed coaches in just a period of one season and still there is no changes and the worst part is from winning the title last season to struggling to qualify for any European competition this season. The season is almost over and we will definitely see some stars leave this summer as they will be disappointed in their performance this season, Victor Osimehn is the top target player teams have had their eyes on and he is likely to leave this summer. I hope with the new coach appointed they will be different next season.

Inter Milan are just class this season and they are so good that even their reserve team can pull up a decent performance as well. A lot of players were rested and that didn’t show any sign of weakness in them, i believe this is how they will want to end the season. It was a good season for them but i hope they don’t end up like Napoli when next season commences i hope they keep the form running till next season.

Bologna now found themselves in the top 3 accompanied with outstanding results and game stats. It's good good news to see Bologna in the UEFA Champions League next season. All credits goes to Thiago Motta Santon Olivares. He's the main pillar that elevated the performance of Bologna this season and they've been in their best form since with the build-up game pattern coming from their headcoach. Also the players have been hunger for good results and they don't hold back from doing the very best.

No one thought about this club that they would be able to reach the fourth position in the rankings and at the same time enter the Champions League zone, and that means there is little chance that they will play on the European stage and will face big clubs, regarding the sale of these players it is certain.  happens because it is the cycle of football, don't be surprised by this because it definitely happens.

That is surely the problem with this upcoming teams because now that Bologna have shown a different performance from their previous seasons, most teams will come for their players and they may consider selling them to make money for the club forgetting to know that if they sell those players the club's performance will reduce next season after they must have sold most of their key players but if you can't get a trophy for a club, you get money for them so if Bologna loses their coach and some of their major players it will still be an advantage to the club's management because they will make some cool cash selling their key players may be they will try and rebuild other players next season.

my parlay bet looked bad after Napoli failed to provide resistance to Bologna even though they were playing at home but Napoli managed to humiliate their own team without any retaliation.
I would not be surprised by this result because previously I rarely used parlay bets and this time I wanted to try using parlay bets but it turned out that Napoli disappointed the fans and also the bettors who failed in the match.
and we must have also seen how many times Napoli got good opportunities but couldn't take advantage of them well so they failed to score in the match.
regarding Osimhen, whatever happens to Napoli, he will still be the top scorer, but if you only rely on Osimhen alone, the team will not be able to achieve any success because the other players have lost their enthusiasm to fight in Serie A and this is all caused by changing coaches several times, making the players unprepared if they have to always adapt to new strategies.

and for Spalletti to return to Napoli is something that is absolutely impossible considering how Napoli treated Spalletti who was so great that he was able to bring Napoli to a higher level and get the Scudetto title but instead he was fired just for the reason of failing to get the UCL title.
meanwhile, getting the UCL title is not something instant and Spalletti strategy of giving the Scudetto title is the initial stage to increase the players self confidence to be ready to face every obstacle in the UCL, but the Napoli owner did not know this kind of strategy and just decided quickly to fire Spalletti.
so Spalletti is not Napoli choice at the moment but could look for a better coach in the coming season but I doubt if an experienced coach will accept an offer from Napoli.



Bologna may have managed to get 3 points from Napoli but that doesn't mean Bologna will easily approach the point difference that Milan has and on the one hand Milan managed to get a big score at home.
but one thing that must be improved is if Milan can still concede 1 score, maybe they should consider improving the defense line next season.

Napoli have lost their productivity compared to the previous few seasons, even though they can have many attempts to score goals, they are a poor team in terms of finishing, which is why there is a real decline in the quality of Napoli's players this season.
Victor Osimhen still scored quite a lot of goals this season even though he didn't have as many games as last season, but the Napoli squad no longer seems to have the motivation to play well like last season, making them often experience bad results.

Luciano Spalletti returning to Napoli doesn't seem possible, at least in the near future or next season, predictions are that Napoli will make another coaching change for next season but will there be any changes? It's still a question mark, especially since there are rumors that several players will leave the club.

Yes, so they realized the importance of a coach to the team. If coach Luciano Spalletti does not leave Napoli. Surely things will be different this season. For the first time in Serie A history, the defending champion team changed 3 coaches during the season. We don't know the final result, but right now we can confirm that the 2023/24 season is truly an immense disappointment for Napoli. They entered the football season as the defending champions of Italy and the squad was not too disturbed. Still, then Napoli not only "surrendered" early in the fight to protect the throne but also almost certainly will not be able to participate in the Champions League next season. Does coach Francesco Calzona have enough talent to save the team, or does the management board only see coach Francesco Calzona as a temporary replacement? When the season ends, I still doubt they will continue to replace the coach.

Bologna are showing impressive performances and nearly achieved a successful season but challenge for Bologna in the summer transfer season will be very big. Will they manage to keep their head coach Motta, and their main players in their clubs?

It will be biggest tasks for Bologna in the summer transfer season because human is most valuable resource and losing a head coach and some main players, will put Bologna in big troubles next season. They can quickly disappear from top four or top six of Serie A next season if they won't succeed in their human resource management and development in the summer.
