Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL)

[cazkooo]

Leicester City were never really THAT good... they had a lucky season where the top teams were all struggling for consistency and they took their opportunity to become unlikely winners. This season is just showing that they don't have the depth or quality of players to maintain a position at the top of the EPL.

It reminds of Blackburn Rovers of the early 90's who won the title in 94-95... and then finished 20 points off 1st place the following year.

Atleast they won the league and thats what important, their name have been written down on history . Although they were lucky however I wont deny that they were good last season, it just seems that losing few of their players really made a huge impact for the team and they cant perform well anymore

I don't think it's fair to say they were lucky to get the most points from 38 games with a league with 19 more teams, alot of hard work goes into that. The only notable player that they lost is Kanté, it's surprisingly how much of an impact the absence of one player makes

Well... could be an interesting weekend of fixtures... there are some relatively tricky match ups!

The only real gimme is Chelsea v. Swansea... and that is reflected in the fairly poor 1.257 odds on offer I would probably take Spurs over Stoke @1.431 and even throw in my beloved (but terribly inconsistent) Liverpool to beat Leicester @1.639...

3way Parlay with a payout of 2.948... we'll see how we go

swansea have a quite good record when play against chelsea ,
you can place bet on swansea or draw for the sake of fun if you want , it has good odds rather than chelsea moneyline ,
liverpool have a very good odds offered , i may will go allin on this match ,
leicester so far not yet scored a single goal in league since new year but the manager has been sacked so they might score this time, how about both teams to score too.

BREAKING NEWS - Claudio Ranieri was fired today!

http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/39070927

Typical human nature. How it changes in just one year. The man made history which might never happen for them again. Got coach of the year. Still couldn't keep his job for 1 more season. Now they want title every season.There would have been a chance on return leg but now its almost impossible. New coach will need time and 2-3 week will not cut it. Their chances of getting relegated also increased. Whats the point of sacking him now? You cant win anything for sure but you did increase the odds of failure. This greedy and stupid decision will cost them bad.

Chelsea vs Swansea , i will bet for Chelsea to win in this game .
Crystal Palace vs Middlesbrough , i will bet for Under 3.5 Goals .
Everton vs Sunderland , i will bet for Over 1.5 Goals .
Hull City vs Burnley , i will bet for Under 3.5 Goals .

I don't see Chelsea will get the problem to win this match look like Chelsea will win with easy nothing to worry, Chelsea now is in stable performance. Chelsea needs to still win all the match, a draw isn't good because of Machester City now uptrend so Chelsea needs to securing their position.

What a sad story though. He bring Leicester City to become the champion of premier league once, but yeah, this year is not the year for Leicester City. Their performance is really bad, even at their home too. Even Jose mourinho defends Ranieri by blaming Leicester City players, not the coach itself.

Swansea have been hard nuts to crack and have been unbeaten in their last 3 meetings with Chelsea. They however have a horrible record against Chelsea in the Premier League. My call will be Chelsea winning this 3-1.

I also think this is entirely not one Ranieri he did not get the players there even the best manager in the world can not do much with the composition of such players. the best way is Ranieri must get out of Leicester city and find a new club.

Chelsea - Swansea: There is no doubt, this will be an easy victory for chelsea

Everton - Sunderland: the same as chelsea, everton will also win this match easily at home

West Brom - Bournemouth: Bournemouth has never won in the last 5 match and 3 times get defeat streak. While the West Brom have a good form and they will win this match at home

good odds for all in, around @3.35

It was a hard decision for the LCFC board or whoever makes the decision in the club.  Actually I think they should have made the decision to give him the sack earlier (around December) to save the club's chances for survival. 

And it wasn't a greedy decision, it was a logical one.  The bleeding has to stop.  But yeah, I would have preferred loyalty and would have loved to see Ranieri finish the season thru, with them surviving or not.  But the thing is Ranieri might have alienated some players.  The dressing room this season is so unlike the one last year.  The players aren't willing to fight for him anymore.  In fact it was them who asked for his sacking.  Blame the players more than the club executives.

the position of Middlesbrough are better than C Palace. This match was most likely the result is draw. so in my opinion is better not add match of C Palace, but it is better to add Tottenham vs Stoke

big mistake Leicester City this season is throwing key players like Kante, he is a great player, where he was very influential on his side, with the loss of a proven Kante Leicester City does not have a player who can give a sense of security in every line. I think this is not entirely wrong Ranieri because the duty of a Ranieri is simply utilizing the existing players to achieve all the objectives of the team. Ranieri may have to bring in players who can replace Kante, of course with the same quality with it.

Chelsea are the strongest home team so far in the season, and I believe that they won't have any problems in overcoming Swansea here. However, Swansea have been doing a solid job lately, and they could score at least one goal here. Judging by how many goals there are in each of Chelsea's matches, I will take the Over 3 Goals here @1.6.

[Granxis]

Everton has not lost points in the league for 8 weeks. They got a good exit. They play in a different atmosphere especially in home field matches. A match is waiting for us.

I don't think Everton are going to have any difficulty trouncing Sunderland especially at home and with Sunderlandd poor away record I don't think it should be a keenly contested game. Everton should wrap everything up by the end of the first half.

They won the Premier League with Claudio Ranieri, I think that is what truly important. I mean you just can't sack a manager that miraclely carry a broken team to be champion team, at least keep him to the end of the season. I remembered he cried in his Leicester's Champions League debut, I know how much he want to stay with the team, even in the end the ending might not look good. The worst decision I have seen so far in this football season.

[Wendigo]

Yeah Claudio Ranieri achieved a complete miracle with Leicester City last year but as Mourinho has brilliantly put it recently 'There is no loyalty in modern football'. The board doesn't care about him, they care about the results and if Leicester get relegated for real that will be a disaster.

By the way I have heard that they are going to erect a statue of Ranieri in front of the stadium. I am not sure if it's just rumors or a real plan though.

Leicester should have been patient with Ranieri he got them their first premier League in a league that is full of big clubs that can spend 10 times more than them and its expected from Leicester to drop down with major player like Kante kept a big hole in Leicester midfield and the other teams improved very well so they sgould gave him more time atleast they managed to score against Sevilla and every one expected that the result of that game will be even more awfull for them

that was ironic that Leicester performance inversely proportional with the last season because the champion currently they must fight to avoid relegated zone but in my point of view that sack Renieri won't solved the problem and sacked the coach in the middle of season is very risky
