Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL)

[swogerino]

Cardiff City would need to get some points desperately if they wish to climb out of the relegation zone on the English Premier League table, even though Cardiff City will be playing against Brighton & Hove Albion in their next match with home ground advantage, I still think Brighton & Hove Albion is the better team in this match, and Cardiff City should consider themselves lucky if they can earn 1 point from this match with a draw.

This is a good occassion for them to get at least one point from this encounter. While Brighton has showed more good football compared to Cardiff the fact that Cardiff are playing at home and against a team of the same level should made them comfortable to get at least one point from this match.

Let’s bump this bad boy to the top of page 1 ahead of some interesting games in match week 12.

I’m going to go with a parlay -

Man City vs Man Utd - Home win
Liverpool vs Fulham - Home win
Newcastle vs B’mouth - Home win

So that’s a 3 way home parlay

I'm not so sure about the Newcastle win. If you look at the league table, there's a clear favorite, and that's Bournemouth (6th on the league table, while Newcastle are 17th). The Magpies just won their first game last weekend but that doesn't change the fact that they're one of the worst teams in the EPL...IMO that's a risky parlay to say the least.

Cardiff City won the match with a score of 2-1 and were able to be in 16th place in the standings. They were left behind in the 6th minute of the first half but were able to equalize in the 28th minute. The winning goal was created at the final minutes of the second half. This is a maximum result and will certainly pump their spirits to face the next matches.

Damn, Opening game and an upset has already happened, based on bookie odds anyway. I'm backing an even bigger upset today, all props to Leicester and their team, and in no way anything personal, but I also feel Burnley, just like Fulham, have not been getting their dues on the basis of football (not that I'm a huge fan of Dyche's style but they're robust and should get a win some time soon).

Agree with the risky parlay on Newcastle, they bagged their first win and I predicted that last week but it was a very lucky game they almost let in equaliser. Not quite worth the parlay either, as Newcastle is 3/1, even with Liverpool and City padding it, you get 4/1? Not good value in my books but good luck all the same.

After the referee sent off one player from Brighton & Hove Albion on the field, if Cardiff City are still not able to beat Brighton & Hove Albion in front of their home fans, the home fans would surely be very disappointed, but Brighton & Hove Albion did held on quite well in this match, despite playing with only 10 men on the field, Cardiff City still need a late goal to claim a victory against them, that is also one of the reason that makes soccer such an amazing game, as the result is always unpredictable until the final whistle is blown by the referee.

I think maybe the visitors will make a surprise. Manchester United, which has just beaten Juventus, will certainly continue this positive result to the derby match. Liverpool are always struggling against weak teams, this will be difficult for Liverpool. And maybe Newcastle United will win with a thin score.

No chance. United's win was pure luck. Did you see their second goal? Juventus had 23 shots in the game, United only had 9. Given how good City's attack is and how bad United's defence is, I reckon something like 3 or 4 goals to City isn't unrealistic. I also very much doubt Liverpool (8-3-0) are going to struggle against last place Fulham (1-2-8).

The only game doubtful in that parlay is Newcastle to beat Bournemouth.

I agree with most of you said, City will obviously dominate because United's luck against Juvie was hilarious. I feel horrible for anyone with bets hanging on that one. But regardless, 3 or 4 goals seem a bit hard to pull off. I have a hunch that they're only going to finish with 2 goals over.

And to finish, I parlay a Bournemouth win. Easily

And football will not escape from luck, you say Juventus have 23 shots and Manchester United only 9, and MU's final results came out as winners. This is football not mathematics where 1 + 1 = 2 and it will not change at any time. Anything can happen in soccer

Maybe. But United's defense really have been awful so far this season. They have conceded 18 goals compared to City's 4. In terms of goals conceded, they are 15th in table. If it wasn't for De Gea, they would be even lower. They haven't been able to keep a clean sheet against teams like Newcastle.

And we all know how deadly City's offense can be when they are regularly racking up 5 or 6 goals in a game.

I mean I can't disagree about the disaster that is Utd's defense, but we can't deny that they did WIN the game against Juventus. That alone might give the team a reason to pickup the pace in the derby tomorrow. I'm not saying they're going to win (which if it happens, is going to be one hell of an upturn), but I don't see them losing form to take more than 2 goals of difference. If I had to bet on tomorrow's score it would probably be 2 to 1.

I mean you're not wrong, but come on. Football isn't casino slots, some games SHOULD be one-sided. Surprises happen, but that's what they are, surprises.

[buwaytress]

Right then, last night had a few surprises, starting right off with the upset by Cardiff, though the red card was a portent.

Spurs have again squeezed out all 3 points, is that now their 5th 1-0 win or am I thinking of another team? Remember the last time a team got 1-0 consistently, they won the league by 10 points (Leicester City!).

Newcastle suddenly find themselves with a lot of breathing space, so DeathAngel, you did well, just need City and Liverpool to win to get your parlay, really well done on Newcastle, but how could anyone except a Toon predict 2 consecutive wins?

United gave us a great Mourinho performance to win me 6.66 so I'm wondering if he can do another Special One tonight. Guardiola's men haven't tasted defeat other than at Lyon, so is the time right?

[suryanirwana16]

Half time Liverpool 1 - Fulham 0
After goals M.salah in minutes 41 i look squad liverpool confident to facing second half, Liverpool should able to dominate the match and i hope liverpool can will add 2 goals again. Go liverpool 2 goals again

You never really know with Mou.  Their stats head to head say Pep wins, but Mou tends to find a way to out fox his rivals when it matters.  And this match def matters with United on 7th place or something on the table...

[El duderino_]

good to see LFC is 2-0

gogogo LIVERPOOL

but looking forward to man city-man u .      (pity de bruyne doesn't play)

[El duderino_]

how big will the beating be

NO pogba
NO mata
NO lukaku
NO sanchez (but he ain't the sanchez that he was so OK)


4-1 or something?

[dmamigo]

Manchester City is on full attacking mode from the beginning itself. With lack of few players, this had to happen I believe. Probably Manchester City is going to snatch the win, but the question is what can be the GD. I think it can be 2-0, chances of United scoring is quite less if City is considered. And for now the scoreline is already 1-0.

[Pab]

First Man United strike and first goal from penalty
Man Citi- Man United 2-1
Will United be able to drawn like they were doing last time
or Citi will score 1 or two more
United is playing his poor game but last time after that kind of play they won against Juve
I  bet 3-1 Citi

[Indymoney]

Today we have one upset already and second is going as Wolves leading by 1 goal even Arsenal is doing hard for salvage but Wolves defense is on target currently Ball possession is in favor of Arsenal 70:30 lets see can they do a Magic goal in next 20 minutes or Wolves going to celebrate for their another stunning win.

EPL: Man City vs Man Utd 2:1

Only 20 minutes left, bring my bet home Utd! I already lost on Bournemouth vs Newcastle, maybe I'll get this one just right.

Since Sergio's out it looks like City might as well be considering paying mostly defense to try and either settle or snatch a quick counter-attack for an extra goal. Hopefully Utd will do what they do best and keep stalling with almost zero potential for a serious attempt for the rest of the game.

I believe you already lost your bet when you placed it on Manchester United today, don't you know Pep record against Mourinho, and Manchester City are a superior team to Manchester United. The third goal has been scored and it's time to accept you lost your second bet too, Manchester City were absolute class, and I feel Manchester City win have moved them one step closer to being champions again, especially after Chelsea draw today, though it's time for end result I feel top 3 spots are sealed, Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, now the battle begins for the fourth spot.

You can see I never bet on Utd win! I just wanted the game to end with 2-1 instead of 3-1, but I guess Utd can only suck so much without being punished by City. And I have to completely agree, City's performance this entire season was top notch honestly. And this last game is probably the best game to finish this week on. Guess all the teams deserve a well-earned rest while UEFA Nations cup gets played next week.

The game did slow down at this point and for a second I thought united could Nick a point but the opposite happened thanks to the continued pressure from the likes of sane and Raheem....after todays City display am convinced these guys will defend their title for a very long time.

I did not place any bets on the match of Liverpool vs Fulham, as I was worried that the morale of the players in Liverpool would be affected by the surprise loss to Red Star Belgrade in the Uefa Champions League, it seems that the Liverpool players are coping well with that loss as they were able to beat Fulham with a comfortable 2-0 at the final whistle.
