5 Predictions For Understanding Italian Football In 2017

The end to 2016/17 Serie A season is expected to be an enthralling one with the three top sides strongly competing for the Scudetto. The 5 predictions for Italian Football in 2017 are:

33rd Serie A Scudetto will Use Juve on Course

Juventus are positively in pole location currently for making it a 33rd league title which sits quite pretty four points clear of Roma which is second-placed with game in its hand. However, one of the biggest tests of the title credentials of Juve come this weekend. The weekend will see a fight with the Inter Milan team which is at its top position now with a total of seven consecutive victories in Serie A. This has helped them in gaining fourth place at the table. Team Juve is of the belief that if they are successful in winning over Inter Milan this weekend then they will be taking an important step towards winning the Scudetto.

Roma’s Season is in the Threat of Sputtering Out

The closest challenger of Juve is Roma which is at its best with 10/1 during the time when Bwin was written. The price of Roma drifted very badly this weekend post slipping to an unanticipated 3-2 defeat faced at Sampdoria. This enabled Juve towards reinforcing its position in the form of league leaders through a total of four points. Ruling the Napoli out of this title race would be completely foolish. This is because the Naples have just lost three times in the 22 league games that took place this season. On the other hand, the Maurizio Sarri team is one of the most attack-minded and competitive teams in Serie A. The team has comfortably averaged two goals per game. Nevertheless, they could find themselves a total of nine points behind the Juventus provided then with the game that they have in hand.

Are Relegation Spots Dusted and Done?

For Pescara, on the other hand, it has been a season to completely get out of mind. Pescara gained huge promotion through Serie B in the year2015/16. But, this season with only one win, the team lies rock-bottom possessing nine points and has been seemingly nailed on for drops at the odds of 1/12 with 10Bet. Apart from this, the other couple of relegation spots seem to be equally dusted and done with Palermo leaking the worst goals with only two wins to its name.

Europa: Atlanta League Material

One of the biggest surprises of the year 2016/17 Serie A season is Atlanta which has been in the top fight of Italy since the year 2011 and is surely having its best season since its return to Serie A. The team possesses young talent and this is the reason why it is playing one of the most exciting brands of football. On the other hand, Gian Piero Gasperini troops are nothing but a simple solitary point at present in the Europa League qualification.

Icardi is all Set to Push Dzeko and Higuain in Leading the Goalscorer Stakes

The front line of Napoli was seriously weakened by the sale of Gonzalo Higuain at€90m. The talismanic striker went for Juventus. The Argentine has proved to be a great hit with Turin Club scoring a total of 15 league goals in around 21 games. Edin Dzeko from Roma is also a superb player for the team. Both Higuain and Dzeko are not the only ones with a total of 15 league goals. There is Icardi from Inter Mauro leading both of them towards in-form Internazionale. Hope these 5 predictions for Italian Football in 2017 will help you in understanding Italian football this season.
