Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL)

[cazkooo]

^  I wouldn't call it horrendous.  They did have their moments and had 5 shots on target.  But they're no match vs City.  City just has the best squad in the EPL overall...  United is a close second.

A very close one indeed, actually I may want to say that united has better squad but city has better coach for their strategy. 10 more matches to go and 16 points difference. That means city needs to lose atleast 5 times and get another draw , then manchester united needs to win 6 times while city lose their points. I dont see this as a possible thing, do you?

Arsenal already humiliated by Manchester City yesterday and they looks can't stopped dominance of Manchester City and for upcoming match against Manchester City again next weekend although Arsenal play as host team but on my predictions this match will belong to Manchester City again

Humiliated pretty badly, complete dominance in yesterdays game. And yes I would also say the upcoming match would be also dominated by Manchester City, but it might not be a clean sheet, as the game is hosted by Arsenal, so they will have some advantages. I would say it would be something like the game between Manchester United and Chelsea, 2-1 the other day.

Guardiola has created a war machine!
 his Manchester City is almost at the levels of his Barcelona.
This year Manchester City can do the "Triplete" (Premier League, National Cup and Champion's League).
This team can dominate European football in the next few years.

manchester city still good in local competition
in champion league only always meet not good team
need meet big team, munchen madrid,psg , barcenona, if can win youre statement is true, war machine

the thing makes City a great contenders for the UCL is that they only lost this season on three occasions once against Shakhtar in UCL and the one against Liverpool and last time they dissapointed was against Wigan in the FA Cup while other big teams like Real Madrid and Bayern showed more weaknesses Real Madrid showed more while Bayern seen not that great of a start under Ancelotti now they are doing much better while Barcelona have been the most consistent team but the recent draws could affect their overall performance. So City overall performance make them a team to fear like the other top teams but the UCL will be defintly their biggest challenge this season.

March is a very tough month for Chelsea as Conte's side have to meet big teams in a row in either the Premier League or UCL. This weekend Chelsea has to travel to Manchester City and they should be able to hold even win the game if they still want to compete for the Premier League title.

With City winning easily against Arsenal, I think now for sure its City's title. Its been a dominating season by City and I can't remember a team being so dominating like City has in a very long time. I must admit as a City fan its been great to watch and entertaining but it would of been nice to see a lot more competition from the other teams to make the title race a lot more interesting. Well the top 3 is interesting to watch to see which teams finish in the top 3 at seasons end.

In truth City won the league since December when they acquired that 15pts lead. There was no way they could lose it from there. I'm not one to usually play this card, since it beginning to be the norm of football, but here it goes "money buys titles". It has simple as that. Man City have spent the heaviest and it is no surprise they are where they are at the moment. Nobody can compete with such funding support in the EPL. That being said, I take nothing away from Pep and the style of play he is using in the Prem. Maybe if Pochettino had same amount of funds (and profile to attract such players), he would be very close to City. Honestly for me football started losing it's true meaning when it became too commercial. I think the turning point was the arrival of Roman to Chelsea; he opened the flood gates.

I disagree.  I mean sure City was ahead and was playing well, but I wouldn't start considering them as 'having won the league' at that point.  Not before the winter transfer window at least.

Somebody pointed out that we haven't seen City vs a top club in the CL, so we can't really judge where they are against thr likes of Bayern, Barca and Real...

I'd like to see them play vs Bayern at some point in the CL.

Yes I agree with this, I think once we see Man City play one of these top teams in Europe, then we will get to see how good or bad City really is because lets be honest there hasn't been much competition for them in the Premier League this season so I'm hoping that they will be up for the challenge for when they do happen to play one of these top teams in the CL.

Chelsea will only be struggling to get into top 4. Their competitor to be in top 4 would be liverpool and tottenham. I think it is about time for liverpool to be in the top 4 because they are really good this season compared with few previous season as well as tottenham. They will be playing against chelsea and the odds are not with them this week as well

They could perhaps pray so that tottenham and liverpool lose their next game but the chance is low for that to happen

[tokeweed]

^  Would it be safe to say that this will be the top 4 at the end of the season...?

EPL Top 4, in Order:

City

United

Liverpool

Chelsea

That looks about right barring anything extreme happens, like a double injury for Salah and Mane or something.

Your list is missing Tottenham, they could easily push into top 4. Champions League will also be a big factor. The teams that manage to progress to next stage will probably mix their team in the league. Lpool & City will go trough for sure, Man utd probably and I can't wait to see Tott and Chelsea games.

I don't see much value in today pairs. Tott and Lpool are big favorites but the odds are minimal. I will only play Leicester to win today against Bournemouth @1.85. I also think that Burnley could snatch a 1:0 win over Everton but I will play that one only for minimal stake.

I think Tottenham will get in the top 4, Chelsea to miss out imo.

Be careful if you’re betting on the PL games today, weather is terrible all across the country, severe snow, lots of games could be postponed due to the weather.

@toke: Liverpool to finish third below United? They still have that Utd-Pool game left to play and I'm pretty sure Liverpool will get 3 points to leapfrog them into 2nd! We already have sidebet in the pool thread, care for another $10? I win if Liverpool finish above Utd, you win if the opposite happens;)

Lots of tempting bets today, and I'm going for a risky acca of Leicester and Southampton to both win @3.3
Liverpool I get dependable goals so over 3 at 1.68 is all I'll do.

Watford are doing well at home winning back to back games on their ground their shape for the past two games is average but their wins came at home and they are going to face West Brom whom have been awful sitting at the bottom of the league with 7 points short of the first safe spot their form is too poor as they are on a 5 games losing run and there are some spectaculation of another loss will make the manager Alan Pardew manage his last game with Brom so for this game I think the hosts have better chance to take the three points West Brom are just not good enough and most of the time they are underperforming so a home win to go for

YES!  Booked!

Edit:  Oh look, Burnley finally won and I didn't make a bet...

Liverpool vs Newcastle.
I do not see Liverpool going to lose tonight, but what I see is Liverpool will have trouble winning. Somehow, I feel Newcastle will always give trouble to Liverpool, especially after newcastle handled by Rafa Benitez. I think the score will be big, between 3-2 or more for Liverpool's victory.

I waiting for this match and expect to see over 2.5 goals in total and over 0.5 on HT. Expecting to see Liverpool to win they play home have good form and im sure they will show they are better.

Don't forget Liverpool are a robin hood   , I'm looking for Liverpool to get another surprising results against the underdogs. From now on let's chase Liverpool to lost by 1 or two goals , the odds quite good especially if they play at home , too mainstream to place a bet for Liverpool ML , try something else. For now they are leading through salah goal , he just scored it at 40' , the game itself live at 42' and running  now.

Liverpool just scored and M.Sallah scored for the 7 straight game and has his 32 goal this season. He is slowly coming up to H.Kane in the scoring leaders race and just might over take him due to the 5-0 domination of Porto in the game earlier this week where he crushed that team single handily.
I think they were saying he is on set to take on DeBuryne soon as well.
As one of the announcers noted, NewCastle is playing this game as just parking the bus and not doing a thing.
So expect more goals to come in the second half.

Game over and though Liverpool should have been able to bear Newcastle by at least four goals to nil, they settled for a two nil win with Mohammed Salah getting his 24th EPL goal of the season and putting him on par wth Harry Kane of Tottenham Hotspurs.

Its really going to be a tough month for the blues in all competitions and Chelsea traveling out to face a Manchester city side that very much inform will be no brainer that these guys wont win this fixture and they can never win nor defend the premier league title either from where the are sitting on the Epl log, maybe if you talk of the next upcoming Epl competition.

Risky bets indeed and both Leicester and Southampton drew 1-1 and 0-0 respectively and Liverpool were unlucky not to get 4 or more goals as a result of poor refereeing, I guess better luck next time

Their fixtures are really chalenging and now they are going to face Manchester City tomorrow, The only so called easy fixture in their March schedule is against Crystal Palace and they lost against them in the first round of the EPL.

I'm looking forward to the upcoming Man City v Chelsea game. It will be an interesting game as Chelsea will want to win or at least draw to stay in the top 4. Man City have already won the title but would want to keep the momentum going and put in a good performance against one of the top teams. I'm betting on both teams to score in this game as I do think Chelsea can score and they do have a pretty good record against City at home.
