The competitions between Bologna, Roma and Atalanta to gets last spot of Champion League zone is very interesting because after Bologna and Roma playing draw then this could be good opportunity for Atalanta to cut their points gap and currently Atalanta has 7 points below to Bologna the team from top 4 place but Atalanta still have 2 postponed matches and assuming Atalanta will be able to win from those matches then they will be able to overtake Roma position on League Table and Atalanta is really in the good shape because they still playing at 3 different competitions such as Copa Italy, Serie A and Europa League and the most fantastic is Atalanta still able to managed their consistency until now

Atalanta is very busy now because after the match against Salernitana then Atalanta have to playing against Marseille for semifinal of Europa League and about the match against Salernitana i think Atalanta will gets easy win from this match because we all know Salernitana is very weak this season because from 34 matches Salernitana only able to gets 2 wins and it makes them have to relegated to Serie B and as the favourite the bookmakers provide low odds for Atalanta win @1.31 and i know this is very low odds but i think it safe bets because most likely Atalanta can be the winner of this match

Juventus performance has now dropped drastically when compared to the start of the season, they stayed in the runner-up position for quite a long time, and now their position in third place is also in danger of being ousted by Bologna. It is clear that Juventus is not fine, Allegri squad must immediately recover to achieve victory, which they have found very difficult to achieve in the last few matches. Apart from that, towards the end of the season Juventus must divide their focus between the remaining Serie A matches and the Coppa Italia final. It was their last chance to win their only trophy, and Atalanta cannot be underestimated now, as their performance has been slightly better in the last few matches. Juventus could lose their ticket to appear in the Champions League next season, if they lose the remaining 3 matches with Bologna and Roma appeared consistent. It seems that Allegri will have to be replaced next season, he is no longer suitable to manage Juventus.

If they continue with this inconsistent performance Juventus might eventually miss the champion slot. They have drawn four games at a roll which had made their position shaky. Draws are better than wins but it will be better to lose two games and win two than to draw four. This is because drawing four games will to four points while winning two and losing two will fetch six points. Atalanta is in 57 points so even if they win both outstanding matches, they will just get to 63 points which is below Juventus's 60 points. Atalanta might have to settle for Europa, they will only make it to the UCL if the four top teams drop points while they keep winning.

For a team to be able to win the Italian Serie A title, the team must be consistent from the start of the season till the end of the season and considering the performances of all the Italian teams in the current Serie A campaign, we can authoritatively say that it is Inter Milan that's been consistent all season which is why they're the crowned champions of Italy.
Juventus started the season on a very good note and was considered by many as a serious contender for the Italian Serie A title this season but surprisingly, they starting getting awful results that's now made them a laughing stock. It was in the beginning of the second half of the season that the Old Ladies of Turin started to underperform. The manager Massimiliano Allegri have to seriously access the team by the end of the season and see what he can do to help them improve

I'm not following Serie A much but looking at the standing, Alatanta has played 33 games only while the other teams has played 35 games.
Currently standing starting from the 3rd position:
Juventus 66points (35 games)
Bologna 64points (35 games)
Roma 60 points (35 games)
Atalanta 57 points (33 games).
If Juventus earn 1 point only in their last 3 matches, while Bologna, Roma and Atalanta win all the remaining matches means that the standing will be as follow:
Bologna 64+9= 73 points
Atalanta 57+12 = 69 points
Roma 60+9= 69 points
Juventus 66+1= 67 points.
However if I look at the schedule of Atalanta, there are 4 Serie A matches remaining only.
So lets say there are 4 matches only and they won it all and keep the other scenario the same, means that Juventus will still out from the top 5.
To be safe, Juventus needs to earn at least 4 points in their last 3 matches IMO
Correct me if I'm wrong.

There are still three matches left and the three teams that will be Juventus next opponents are, Salernitana, Bologna and Monza. At least, based on quality at least Juventus is still better but even so, the reality is that when Juventus play against these teams it seems quite often Juventus also get bad results. Moreover, Juventus still have to prepare for the Coppa Italia final match against Atalanta and thus, it seems that Juventus are indeed in a not entirely good situation at this moment. But indeed, even so I also assume that Juventus are still in a safe position in the Serie A standings to keep finishing in the top five and of course, Juventus will get a Champion League ticket too.

CMIIW, if you look at the coefficient points for next season's UCL spots, Italy is currently in number one position with a coefficient of 19.xxx, or 1 point above Germany. This means next season Italy will definitely get 5 spots for UCL. With Atalanta's position only 57 points, if Juventus manages to get just 1 point from the last 3 matches, assuming Bologna and Roma win all the remaining matches, then Juventus will still have the opportunity to play in the UCL Playoffs next season. Of course it would be better if Juventus win, if something bad happens, 1 point is not bad. the important thing is to get to the UCL play-offs.

In fact, Juventus could have got a goal through Federico Chiesa's kick, but unfortunately the kick hit the crossbar and sent the ball back out, even though both of them were attacking each other, what was a shame was that the striker that Juventus fielded didn't score a single goal, even though the goal was scored. by the Juventus defender through Gleison Bremer's header and that has proven that the Juventus striker really had difficulty scoring goals in that match.

Next week Juventus must really get full points when they host Salernitana in week 36 because it is mandatory for Juventus to keep their distance from Bologna, and then Juventus can focus more on fighting Atalanta in the Coppa Italia Final, at least that will be enough to recover. the stamina of the players for the Final match, because it is the only title that Juventus hopes for this season.

Juventus has been having a hard time lately. The best teams in the world shouldnt even be able to handle these recent games. Im not a coach, but I can tell they need to do better. They are lucky to be in third place right now because they are still in the running for the Champions League. When Roma and Atalanta are hungry, one mistake means the game is over. Real Madrid and Juventus both have great players with a lot of promise. Now is the time to pay attention and play each game like its the final. Lets see the fire and drive that makes Juventus the great team we all know and admire.

It will be better if Juventus can at least win one of their remaining matches to seal up their champion league qualification next season, because I am not cool with the draws, however it is better to share points than lose all three points. Juventus position is at threat only if Bologna starts performing poorly like them Juventus that is when they can finish at third position. Atalanta still have two outstanding matches, that if they win they will be on the 5th position which is a threat.

The remaining matches for the Juventus team this season are only three more, not five. And with the remaining matches, of course Juventus must be able to continue to get points so that they can be in the top three positions until the end of this season, because Bologna themselves are always ready to take that position if Juventus is no longer consistent in getting points in the remaining matches this season. Even though Bologna's position is not completely safe, Atalanta is also very ready to pursue that position because they still have more games left to play in the remainder of this season.

Roma is not strong enough to win, and Juventus is not weak enough to lose, what I wrote about happened, they played a draw. And now they are putting everything in the hands of Atalanta, which has two games in hand and is just three points behind Roma. Today they will play their match with Salernitana, and I think that they will win this match, and this victory will be enough to overtake Roma on goal difference. Yes, they almost missed their chance in the EL, and most likely Atalanta will not forgive them for their mistakes in Saria A.

Udinese will fight tomorrow at Bluenergy Stadium against Napoli. This match is definitely going to be very important for Udinese. Actually you can call it a relegation battling for Udinese, Because if they are able to win this match they will play the same amount of matches with Empoli and they will also have the same amount of points. But now Udinese is going to be ahead of Empoli because Udinese has a better goal difference. And I think Udinese will actually have a good chance of finishing outside of the relegation zone.

As far as I know, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is in injury time, so Francesco Calzona’s man might go without this important winger in tomorrow's match. You know, except for the match against Napoli, they do not have very hard matches. But I don't think we can expect them to win all the other matches. That is going to be expecting a little too much from a team that is in the relegation zone in my opinion.

Juventus did not perform well in many matches towards the end of this season. I was also not surprised by the draw that Juventus achieved against AS Roma because Juventus did not perform optimally and I also have not included Juventus matches in my betting list for a long time because Juventus is not the club that I used to know as a strong club is now Juventus' defense and attack power is also weakening so I'm not sure Juventus will be able to survive in its current position.

I think sooner or later Bologna will soon overtake Juventus in 3rd place, now their point difference is only 2 points, Juventus' next opponent may seem easy because it is against Salernitana, the bottom club in the standings, but in the previous match, when they faced weak club Udinese, Juventus lost against Cagliari. and Verona Juventus only achieved a draw so I'm not sure Juventus can get full points even though their opponent Salernitana Juventus really performed BAD.

I was actually displeased with this results when I saw it because I had taught Inter were actually going to be able to win that game considering their strength and position on the table so far this season and the fact thst they have been able to scale through even tougher games and yet they were able to make good results, anyways since it didn't get to affect their productivity and position on the table I think it's such that we wouldn't have to make a deal out of it .

Inter still stays at the top of the table solidly and we definitely going to be the winners of the serie A this season. It's sad and yet funny that the victory against inter still didn't get to do much for Sassuolo as they are still very much likely to be relegated by the end of the season as they are still at the bottom of the table, some how I'm forced to think that it was an intentional act that inter lost that game because Sassuolo wasn't even in such a good form neither was their anything spectacular about their performance that day they were only lucky a d were able to hold on to the goal till the end of the game.

Sassuolo hasn't been of any good performance this season they have literally struggled all along and had just very few wins which I doubt it's upto ten this season which is a show of an absolute form of weakness from them of which they are most definitely not going to be able to get fixed this season and sadly they will not be in the serie A again by next season so they will have to get their selves fixed in the second division.

Roma and Juventus have one goal for each and they came closely to one more goal for each with a headshot from Christensen and a shot from Chiesa. Roma tried to attack in last 15 minutes and created some opportunities for Abraham, Pellegrini but they could not score any more goal and had to accept only 1 point. They did not try best in this match because De Rossi gradually sent Dybala, Lukaku and Pellegrini out while some other important players like Mancini, El Sharawy did not play in this match.

Roma are still obsessed with Europa League and try to beat Leverkusen in Germany and make a come back. They did not want to use their most important players in defensive and attacking lines for a match with Leverkusen next week.

De Rossi seemed to think that Juventus are strong enough to hold 1 point and he did not want to waste energy of his important players. By this, Roma got only one point and have to pray that Atalanta will not win next matches and make a flippening on table at very end match days of Serie A.

As a result of failing to win in their last four matches, Juventus' position is now starting to become unsafe in third place. The competition will be even fiercer because there is still the possibility of changing positions in the list of the top four, Roma and Atalanta could displace Juventus and Bologna if they are able to get all the points that are still available, Meanwhile Juventus and Bologna failed to win in the remaining matches.

Atalanta has the potential to displace Juventus from the top four because there are still four matches left. Juventus must see this as a threat because the opportunity to qualify for the Champions League is in their own hands. Juventus remaining matches in the next three matches will be against Salernitana, Bologna and Monza, there will be no more Juventus vs Atalanta games in Serie A this season because the two teams have played two games with the result 0-0 at Atalanta headquarters and 2-2 at Juventus headquarters.
Juventus vs Atalanta will face each other in the Coppa Italia final, not in Serie A as you said.

The first team to beat Inter this season was Sassuolo and like De Javu, Inter suffered their second defeat this season when they faced Sassuolo again. It seems unreal that Inter's record of success this season had to be broken again by Sassuolo and even though they lost by a narrow score of 1-0, this was still a bad result.

Apart from all that, Inter have indeed won the title this season so they don't need to worry about any team being able to catch up on their points, but on the other hand losing twice to the same team is very bad. I think next season Inter will have to overcome Sassuolo and update its H2H.

I see that Atalanta's performance is slightly better than Juventus in the last few matches, so I think it will be quite difficult for Juventus to win the Coppa Italia title this season.
I see this realistically, even though I also want to see Juventus win the title this season, but if you look at their performance in the last few matches, I am quite pessimistic.
But despite that, this is a final match which will definitely be played with high tension and fierceness, this is worth looking forward to.

Inter lost away.It's not much of a result for Inter, who suffered their 2nd defeat in the league.It was very, very important for Sassuolo to beat the champions at home to stay in the league.Everyone thought they couldn't win this match, but they surprised everyone and managed to get the 3 points.If they want to stay in the league, they must not lose points in the next 3 weeks.They are in a very tight race with their rivals.The points are close and it seems that who will stay in the league will not be clear until the last week.
