The Copa Italia race is on and it's confirmed that this trophy is eyes more by Roma. They sustained a 2-1 victory yesterday night as well and they seemed fully charged for what lies ahead. Of all the teams that have advanced to the next round of the contest, they're the only ones with high determination to get to the end and win. And I trust José Mourinho to lead his team to the final.

 They've got the entire skill set needed and they're eager to put efforts. Milan on their own hand gave defaults that they may not be able to get pass with even if they're able to defeat Atalanta. One would believe that Napoli, Inter Milan are not aimed for the trophy. Inter are aiming for the Serie A cup and Napoli are striving to create relevance and also secure a UCL spot too even with their squad loopholes.

Cagliari coach need to improve the team in the remaining games, if Cagliari will be able to escape the relegation at the end of this tournament because their performance in this season is not giving their fans confident, if they will be able to come close to Napoli that are in 5th position in the Italy serie A table. Based on what their coach is planning to do to his players now show that Cagliari players will begin to showcase some new tactics that will help them to withstand some weak team like them.

And the reason why Cagliari coach need to act fast to save his job  by saving the team from relegation is that if Cagliari enter relegation in this season, show that their coach maybe sack for not prove his skills to improve the team in this season.

Although Cagliari failed to be consistent, at least there is no guarantee for Cagliari to stay in the relegation zone until the end of the season. Because anyway, if for example at the same time the teams above Cagliari also get bad results then ya, of course Cagliari will still have a chance to get out of the relegation zone and will still play in Serie A next season.

Unless, there is a very wide points gap between the team in the relegation zone and outside the relegation zone, then if the position is like this it is very likely to have no chance for the team in the relegation zone . Because after all,the fact is that they still have a close points gap and obviously, the competition in the lower zone is also interesting because it will continue throughout the season.

Isn't it too soon to discuss which teams will be relegated next season? even now it's not even half way through the season (it takes 1 more match to go to the middle of the season). After I looked at the Serie A standings, it's not impossible that Cagliari can stay in Serie A next season, they're just experiencing bad luck. In the next match they will face Lecce, Lecce isn't a strong team, but also can't be underestimated, and if Cagliari is serious about staying in Serie A, they must get 3 points in Ettore Giardiniero - Via del Mare.

It does depend on Cagliari themselves  especially since theyre a promoted  club this season after going back and forth between Serie A and Serie B so now it depends on them whether they are able to get out of the relegation zone and survive or just the same as the previous season for them.

On the other hand we also cannot expect anything when an ordinary club tries to rise from the downturn, actually it is a little more complicated because when at the beginning of the season until the  middle of the season they feel at home in the lower standings then towards the end of the season it is like that because they are difficult to get out of the zone and rise to improve points so that sometimes for those who are in the lower standings sometimes the changes dont move and evebn tend to be monotonous although there are some club  that still manage to break that but of course that cannot be done by all club. 

Cagliari was collect 14 points from 18 matches and they only can gets 3 wins from those matches and i have to says it's very hard for them to avoiding relegation zone but doesn't mean they don't have a chance to avoid that zone and surivive in Serie A because they have equal chances to Verona, Sassuolo and Udinese however recently Cagliari has successfully to improved their home matches records because in the last 5 home matches Cagliari was unbeatable because they can collect 3 wins and 2 draw I think these records proves that Cagliari has strong mentally to out from relegation zone

This weekend indeed Cagliari will fight against Lecce for away matches and one of their biggest weaknesses currently indeed for away matches because they always be performing poorly at their opponents home ground but Lecce is not strong opponent because this team also had a problem with the consistency so if Claudio Ranieri can able to bringing Cagliari to performing well i think there is a chance for Cagliari to stole at least 1 point from this match so that's why for betting option i was thinking to bets draw or both teams to scores

Serie A has only been going on for half the season, with the points obtained by 4 teams above Cagliari which only has the highest difference of 5 points, it is still very possible for Cagliari to out from relegation zone at the end of the season. What they need is not a miracle, but they must be able to improve their performance at least when they meet teams that are equal to their strength. If they manage to win all their matches against teams in the relegation zone and 4 above, then Cagliari can stay in Serie A next season.

100%!  That's Mourinho - a 1-0 score is enough to win.
By the way, with the score 1-1, the bookmakers assessed the probability of Roma's victory as 1.2 - quite high, taking into account the fact that the score was slippery and there was little time left until the end of the game, and if Cremonese had scored, it is unlikely that Roma would have had time to win back.
Now in the 1/4 we are waiting for the Roman derby Lazio - Roma. I don’t expect anything interesting from these games, most likely it will be something like 1-0, 0-1 in a stubborn, sticky fight.

Cagliari still has chance to avoid the relegation zone and of course they will have that chance after the break is over, but there will be some pressure in getting full points in the upcoming matches because first they have to face Lecce and after that Bologna.
To face Lecce, Cagliari might have big chance of winning because Lecce themselves do not have stability in all the matches they have played so far.
However, against Bologna it will be really difficult challenge and pressure for Cagliari to win, just look at Bologna, they have 8 wins and 3 defeats even though they have drawn 7 times, but at least they have had few defeats.

Of the team above it alone, Cagliari has fairly narrow gap, namely the same as Verona with 14 points, Sassuolo with only difference of 2 points and Udinese with 3 points.
From this difference it can be concluded that Cagliari chances of avoiding the relegation zone are wide open, they just need to continue to make changes and optimize their game more consistently.

What will clearly have difficulty avoiding the relegation zone is Salernitana and they are team that will clearly be relegated this season if they do not provide good development.
But that normal because they just keep losing and don't deserve to be in the main Serie A competition.

AS Roma have picked up the crucial form to start winning matches because the club is fighting for better results and it can only be achievable. José Mourinho knows what he's doing and planning to explore more options for AS Roma. José Mourinho have the best strategy to implement, this is certainly a case where we won't be jeopardizing any slight difference followed by inconsistent performance. Having an experience attacker like Romelu Lukaku in your frontline, netting a goal wouldn't be considered difficult because there we have a bulldozer who's willing to tackle just to net a goal.

Cagliari not only need a miracle but also has to fight hard to get out of the relegation zone, in their last match Cagliari was unable to get full point against Empoli at home, which in fact is both a weak team at the moment so I'm not sure if Cagliari will be able to get 3 points when facing a mid table team or a top team whose condition is getting worse, in the match earlier this year Cagliari will face Lecce as the visiting team. Let see if there is a miracle there where Cagliari is able to appear surprising and cause difficulties for the home team.

Indeed, Napoli are not dead but they have just lost their consistency and I think that against Salernitana they will find it difficult. It is possible that Osimhen is also still absent considering his red card so they do not have a viable striker option as a replacement. What I'm afraid of is that Napoli won't be able to defend well so that Salernitana can steal the lead first and that's when Napoli will be locked in the Salernitana defense line and unable to score.

Juventus is one step closer to catching up with Inter and everyone knows that they are a big team that is free to focus on just one competition and they have no responsibility for other competitions. So the opportunity is bigger and just waiting for Inter to experience one failure then they can lead Serie A safely.

Yes, that's right, because Juventus will meet Salernitana twice in the Coppa Italia match today and the Serie A league in one week, at least Juventus can really learn how to exploit Salernitana's gaps and weaknesses, Allegri will really put pressure on his team to play better in facing Salernitana because it is important to get a win in the next two matches against Salernitana, both Coppa Italia and Serie A.

Salernitana is not a difficult opponent for Juventus, but they also shouldn't underestimate Salernitana because it could be fatal if Salernitana makes it difficult for Juventus to win and score goals. I think Allegri has to prepare a good strategy to be able to win in the next two matches. My prediction is that Juventus will succeed in beating Salernitana in the next two matches they meet.

Im telling you my friend if napoli was only lucky last season. The club was having average performance but it gets advantage caused by so many clubs were still in the transition last season.
You will not be able to see the same napoli like last season again. It's done for napoli and it has no chance to get the trophy this season. The club still perform like shit and nothing improved at all.
Being qualified for the UCL next season is very hard to happen. We need to see that based on the fact if napoli is still sitting at the 8th place of standing while it's being far away from the top 4.

The chance for napoli to enter into the UCL is very small if it will not be getting win streaks. Napoli really need to win streaks to go up again but it's very impossible to happen soon.
Im thinking napoli may probably out from the top 10 soon. I'm seeing mazzarri was not feeling convenient to handle this club. Mazzarri has not pleasant experience in managing serie a club.
It will be another lose for napoli if the club keeps play like shit. Im not hoping a lot with this team but i kinda feel your expectation for napoli to finish at the top 4 is impossible to happen.

Roma had better take it seriously while they have a chance to win a title. Otherwise Mourinho's end won't be good here. His contract finishes by this summer therefore he needs to make this team more successful this season to be able to keep his job. But things aren't going well on the Serie A side on one hand at all. 

It looks quite difficult for them to finish the season in top four with this kind of a form. Therefore they need to fight for the Coppa Italia title on one hand as hard as possible. If they win this title maybe he might have a chance to stay even if they don't finish the Serie A in top four.

If Cagliari achieves a miracle, it will set an example for other teams in Serie A. They are currently going through a very difficult financial period and the motivation of the players has decreased. However, if they manage to stay in the league at the end of this year, the possibility of the players going to other teams increases, as a result, there may not be many teams that want to buy the players of the relegated team. I think they will try, but we will see what happens at the end of the season. All teams are close to each other in the points table.

taking three points in Cagliari's financial situation is not easy, there is no serenity to be able to work and therefore everyone works in a nervous and not serene way
This is why I am convinced that Cagliari will go to Serie B compared to the other teams at the bottom of the table

Setting priority is importance when a club has 3 competitions to play in, especially a club who who lack of squad depth. Napoli and Inter Milan losing to Frosinone and Bologna, respectively, demonstrate that The Coppa Italia is the last in their priority list, because they have Champions league games and Serie A as the main focus. This is why the unpredictability is part of what makes the Coppa Italia captivating for fans.

Roma's serious approach to winning the Coppa Italia this season, despite facing challenges against Cremonese, reflects the competitive nature of the tournament. The fact that Roma had to work hard to overcome Cremonese's lead demonstrates the level of competition in the Coppa Italia and reinforces the idea that teams cannot take anything for granted. Juventus facing Salernitana will go on full strength striving to win, because they aim the Coppa Italia as securing silverware for the season. This concentrated focus may result in a determined and committed performance from Juventus. It's not a good news for Salernitana for sure.

In the Coppa Italia, sometimes the results of matches between weak teams vs strong teams are very difficult to predict. Because some strong teams sometimes don't play optimally and experience defeat. As happened with Napoli and Inter Milan who lost to Frosinone and Bologna.

Rome seems different. Because it seems serious about winning the Coppa Italia title this season. Although I didn't expect AS Roma to have to go to such great lengths to win this match. Cremonese led the match well from the start. And Rome tried to chase him and succeeded.

Today Juventus will face Salernitana. And for this one, I think it is clear that Juventus will not give up and will try to win this match. Because Juventus has no other schedule apart from the domestic league. So Juventus' focus is definitely on winning the Coppa Italia.

Even though they were in 5th place in Serie B, I think they played one of their best games against an Italian giant team. If it wasn't for Dybala's penalty, they might have won the match. Even coming this far is a success for Cremonese. They deserve to be congratulated. Rome got the win as we expected, but we must say that it was a bit difficult.
