SALERNITANA - ROMA

Salernitana is one of the main relegation contenders, along with Lecce. I have zero confidence in them, as they have a very weak squad.

They achieved the miracle last year, managed to avoid relegation due to a great transfer market in winter, but now the sporting director (Walter Sabatini) left the club. They lost a key player in this transfer market - Ederson (to Atalanta). Salernitana made a miracle last year but right now seems to be having the same problems.

The team isn't ready yet to compete actually despite the new owner is doing his best to attract players but some slowness and also injuries (Radovanovic, Bradaric, Bohinen, Jaroszynski) are making everything complicated at the moment. The latest news is that in one of the training matches, Salernitana's starting defender Lovato was injured, the player will be out for two months.

They already played an official game in the Coppa, losing 0:2 against a Serie B team - Parma.

But Roma is the main reason for this pick. For me they will be in the TOP4. They made great transfers this summer, the team has strengthened a lot this summer. With the acquisition of Dybala, Mourinho's tactical repertoire has been further expanded with the arrival of Georginio Wijnaldum (PSG), who in turn could be a further boost in midfield.

There is also talk of acquiring Belotti, who would also be a big signing. It's early in the season, but Roma should be aiming for three points in the first round. In the previous season Roma won both times (0:4 and 2:1) to Salernitana

Roma will start with a lot of ambition and surely won't fail in the first match. There’re a lot of expectations in this team, where everybody is very excited with the great squad they made to increase the level of a team who already won a European title last season (Conference League).

ST PAULI - MAGDEBURG

I think that Magdeburg should be on eye level here.

St Pauli lost some of their best players prior to this season and should thus not have much to do with promotion. The players they lost were responsible for most of their goals, and also defensively, they lost their two best central backs.

They also have problems with the goalkeeper position and signed Burchert since Smarsch has made a terrible impression so far. Even against a weak 4th division side in DFB Pokal that usually has offensive problems, St Pauli conceded 3 goals.

On the other hand, Magdeburg are still underrated and have also been quite unlucky so far in this season. Technically I see them as top six material (their weak defence is a problem, though). However, they should create plenty of chances against a team that is shaky in the defence, too.

This season so far has proven that Magdeburg look best when they have space (first half vs. Karlsruhe when they scored 3 goals for example), and thanks to St Pauli's offensive attitude, they will certainly get some.

Their playmaker and best player, Atik, will be out, however, main striker Brunker has returned from his injury. In the first games, Magdeburg has been lacking vigorous power up front with Atik as a "false nine". Maybe it can eventually be beneficial that Brunker will be an option again, and Atik has also been out of form after injury problems pre-season.

I expect an open game here with an offensive approach from both teams. This should suit Magdeburg very well, who always look best in this kind of open clashes. And don't think that Magdeburg will ever play defensively as an away team - they have a super offensive mentality that they always stick to. Anyway, Magdeburg should create too many chances here to be underdog

萨勒尼塔纳和莱切是保级的主要竞争者之一。我对他们没有信心，因为他们的阵容很弱。

他们在去年创造了奇迹，在冬季的转会市场上成功地避免了降级，但现在体育总监(瓦尔特·萨巴蒂尼)离开了俱乐部。他们在转会市场上失去了一个关键球员——埃德森(被亚特兰大)。萨勒尼塔纳去年创造了奇迹，但现在似乎面临着同样的问题。

球队还没有准备好参加比赛，尽管新老板正在尽最大努力吸引球员，但一些缓慢和伤病(拉多瓦诺维奇、布拉达里奇、博希宁、雅罗辛斯基)现在让一切都变得复杂起来。最新消息是，在一场集训比赛中，萨勒尼塔纳的首发后卫洛瓦托受伤，球员将缺阵两个月。

他们已经在Coppa踢过一场正式比赛，0:2输给了乙级球队帕尔马。

但是罗马是这个选秀权的主要原因。对我来说，他们会进入TOP4。他们在这个夏天进行了伟大的转会，球队在这个夏天加强了很多。随着迪巴拉的加盟，穆里尼奥的战术储备随着乔治尼奥·维纳尔杜姆(PSG)的到来而进一步扩大，维纳尔杜姆反过来可能会进一步提升中场。

此外，贝洛蒂也是一笔大买卖。现在赛季刚刚开始，但是罗马应该在第一轮就把目标定在三分上。在上个赛季，罗马两次以0:4和2:1的比分战胜萨勒尼塔纳

罗马开局会很有野心，肯定不会在第一场比赛中失败。这支球队有很多期待，每个人都对他们的伟大阵容感到非常兴奋，他们已经在上赛季赢得了欧洲联赛冠军。

圣保利-马格德堡

我认为马格德堡应该在视线齐平的地方。

圣保利在本赛季前失去了一些最好的球员，因此应该没有太多的提升。他们失去的球员对他们的大部分进球都负有责任，而且在防守方面，他们失去了两个最好的中后卫。

他们在门将位置上也有问题，自从Smarsch给他们留下了糟糕的印象后，他们签下了Burchert。即使是对阵第4级别的球队，圣保利也丢了3球。

另一方面，马格德堡仍然被低估，本赛季到目前为止也相当不幸。从技术上讲，我认为他们是最重要的六名球员(尽管他们薄弱的防守是个问题)。然而，面对一支防守不稳的球队，他们也应该创造很多机会。

本赛季到目前为止，马格德堡在有空间的时候表现最好(比如上半场对卡尔斯鲁厄，他们打进了3球)，由于圣保利的进攻态度，他们肯定会得到一些。

他们的组织者和最好的球员阿蒂克将会缺席，然而，主力前锋布鲁克已经伤愈复出。在第一场比赛中，马格德堡在前场缺乏有力的力量，阿提克是一个“假九人组”。也许最终布伦克尔会再次成为球队的选择，而阿蒂克也在赛季前的伤病中状态不佳。

我希望这是一场双方都有进攻方式的开放式比赛。这应该很适合马格德堡，他总是在这种公开的冲突中看起来最漂亮。不要认为马格德堡会在客场打防守，他们有一种超强的进攻精神，他们一直坚持。无论如何，马格德堡应该创造了太多的机会，使自己处于劣势
