Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL)

I don't really have a problem with it, just pointing out that the goals happen because some players made a mistake. Depending on your PoV, you can call it 'luck' or 'part of the game'. Liverpool's goal against Sheffield this season is another example.

I did not mean it was a problem to you, it just I expressed my view in it 😀

Talking about Liverpool match, I guess you are talking about the match against Wolves? I can not remember their goal (watching too many matches these days so I mix up LOL) but the goal that was scored by Wolves just before the half time, should have been stand.

Arsenal are currently being defeated by both big teams and small teams

I always say this,
Arsenal, Utd, Tottenham are bookies favorites in this season. With them in recent time City joined too. Betting for these teams are highly risky these days.

I believe in the miracle of football , catching up 20 points is not impossible. Manchester city has the ability to do that.

Citeh would need to win all 18 games remaining to make a maximum of 95 points for the season. Same with Leicester... they can make a max of 96 by winning their last 18 game straight... ie. a 100% winrate for basically half the season, when they already have only a 65% win rate at 13 wins out of 20 played.

To better those totals, Liverpool only need to win 14 of their 19 remaining games (~74% win rate) and could lose the other 5. In fact, they could beat Citeh and draw even with Leicester with only 11 wins and 8 draws, but they have GD of +9 on Leicester. And a single slip by Citeh or Leicester at this point will make it even more of a mountain for them to climb.

Having said that, we're really only halfway through the season... anything can happen still, and until it is mathematically impossible for the others to win, I'm not counting my Liverbirds before they've hatched!

It was a long ball from van Dijk, that came off Lallana's shoulder/chest and was finished by Mane... it was reviewed by VAR and rightly awarded.

but the goal that was scored by Wolves just before the half time, should have been stand.

As with some of Liverpool's VAR offside reviews where a players "armpit" was ruled offside(!!?! )... it was shown that the Wolves player was offside by the smallest of margins... so it was quite rightly disallowed for offside.

Abraham deserves the credit here.

He deserves credit not just for that goal, but for his contributions to Chelsea this season, that's his 13th epl goal of the season if i am not mistaken, so many didn't even expect him to hit double figure let alone score that much in just the first half of the season. At the start of this season Giroud probably thought he'll be Chelsea's main man upfront, but Tammy's form is doing well to keep him on the bench, I would not be surprised if Giroud leaves this January.

After losing to Chelsea this week Arsenal will face their heavy team this week with Manchester United getting hit even more for Arsenal.

Arteta is having a tough run of fixtures, it'd have been better for him facing weaker teams at least in his fist few games. Losing to Manchester United would leave him with 1 point out of a possible nine, that'll be a really bad start for him, he needs to do business in the transfer market starting next month.

The problem with Arsenal was totally not the manager.
They had a bigger issue with the players' chemistry and possibly their attitude outside the pitch. The gunners need an absolute reform of the team and bring fresh talented players if they want to be a top club again.

Really? Why would they do that? I can understand them not accepting any more bets on Liverpool to win but are they paying out the full amount or letting people take an early cash-out of a lower amount? I could understand the partial cash out as they try to cut their losses from what likely is an inevitability but the season is far from over and there's nothing in it for the bookies to give a full cash out right now. The bookies desperately did this when Leicester were on to win the league as they were going to take massive losses if that came in, which was looking very likely, so they were desperately offering partial cash outs to try soften the blow.

I read about this too. I thought it was quite silly,,, but apparently bookies in UK have loyal customers and they even pay out some bets early when they are very loyal customers sort of like an early cashout.

I think it was stupid too. This payout was even with Liverpool leading at 10 points. Which is very stupid. Publicity stunts I guess.

Oh and yes about Liverpool losing 3 or 4 games, City and Leicester must then also win. So almost impossible situation.

Liverpool will draw a few games for sure. This rate is just unsustainable!

I know he is a great player and he is a good asset for both Chelsea and England as a nation. There are no doubt that his future is bright as well. Only 22 years old. I was only talking about that specific goal only.

By the way, it's 12, the number of EPL goals in this season for him.

yeah man, Arteta is a potential coach because he worked with Pep Guardiola before it, as we know that Pep is one of the best coaches. Arteta only needs support from management to buy a few players in the transfer market in January

Arteta using scheme 3-5-2 need strong defender [Center-Back] to handle it when Defending-Midfielder going to help attacker and late to back to position.

Arsenal are a thrifty team, just look at the last few years this team is less aggressive in recruiting expensive players
they are more interested in buying young players then polished to be a star and then sell it

If that's the only disadvantage for Arsenal, buying young players with standard price I think is efficient and it's better to buy good quality young players when on the pitch it will contribute to Arsenal and no longer be ranked below.

Liverpool EPL champions might be my 70% prediction Liverpool does not provide a gap to anyone who wants to face him so that when faced with they will lose to Liverpool.
Including Manchester City has been uprooted by Liverpool and this season the champions are in sight for Liverpool.

If you think that Arsenal's unbeaten record in one season when they won first will be won by Liverpool? Given in the second half of the season they will compete at home to Manchester City. I think this is the game that will provide the biggest challenge this season for Liverpool.

Man City will have given up on the title by then (if they haven’t already). Is that fixture near when a potential CL 1/4 or semi final would be? City might rest players as they go for the Champions League glory.

By the way, just made my picks for FJM.

Same. Here's my lineup: Chris Wood - Vardy - Deulofeu - Callum Wilson - Sterling - Pukki - Aubameyang

I've also placed my acca for the New Year's Day fixtures 

Chelsea WIN & O1.5 @2.10
Spurs WIN @2.16
Newcastle - Leicester BTTS @2.00
@9.07

Wish me luck people!

Good luck mate.
I gone with Wood - Vardy - Jimenez - Haller - Aguero - Ayew - Rashford
Not much confidence however let's see how far I (we) go.

Except Spurs the rest two looks really good. Lately I figured out that Arsenal, Utd, Spurs are bookies favorite. They always mess up with punters. But since you already had it in your slip, I wish you good luck mate. @9.07 is really good slip.

I also have doubt on that one. Southampton are good and tough opponents and Spurs are not in form against such teams. Southampton or draw could be a chance.

Rest also seems okay to me. I hope you win your bet @tomahawk

Given in the second half of the season they will compete at home to Manchester City. I think this is the game that will provide the biggest challenge this season for Liverpool.

Which challenge? Isn't it Manchester city homes teams that never in their life you'll think can defeat them are winning games easily. In my opinion, the only club that might have a chance to cancel Liverpool's invincible season would be United. Not because they're better but when it comes to big games, the united players are always on their A game and so far they're the only club in the epl to have taken points from liverpool (their last game ended in a draw, although united deserve a win but Liverpool fighting spirit helped them avoid that lost).

On Brighton vs Chelsea game, well it's another away game so obviously it should be an easy win for the boys, although they need score more goals I'm tired of the one goal scoreline differences. I miss the early days of 3plus goals per away games. We need get back to scoring more goals and winning games back to back since united is picking up some momentum recently not forgetting we're just 18 games away to the end of the season.

It is very likely that Spurs will master this game against Southampton tomorrow night because this is an opportunity for Spurs to win because they can move up to standings 5, because Manchester United will face Arsenal, of course this will be a burden for Man United, Spurs have a good chance.
I am sure in this match there will not be a draw maybe in one of the winners.

[Murat]

So, there is nothing to get worried about Liverpool's fan for the title of this current season, I think Manchester City has shown the way and it makes the difference between two teams, but I am worried about the Arsenal's performance because they could not find a way how to win, It's very sad to see such type of legendary team is going to below the point table, such a horrible performance, It's not expected result from Arsenal because their team is good but they are not playing like a team.

[Trofo]

Yeah, i think it's safe to say Lampard will get to keep his job after January 1st  So, you've been paid already! Check your PMs.

Fair play to Lampard, top 4 in the EPL and RO16 in the Champions League...I'm impressed. The team did look a bit shaky from time to time, but overall, he's done a terrific job so far.
