Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL)

[tomahawk9]

With Kane out until March (missing the CL games and the league cup semi finals), Son on the Asian Cup for like a month, and Llorente being the only replacement in the foward position, I wonder if Daniel Levy will finally go and spend some money on a new signings...There's Morata who's currently looking for a new club, I think he would be a decent signing for Spurs, though if they want him, they better start moving now because Atletico Madrid is also interested in the spaniard.

Losing kane is big blow and their season could be over already, I just hope they'll at least be able to keep up the top four spot. About signing a new striker, I doubt Tottenham would be willing to splash out big cash on a striker like Morata, and Chelsea definitely wouldn't let him go cheaply either, the transfer seems like a dead end, They could however turn to Atletico Madrid where Nikola Kalinic is surplus to requirement despite just signing last summer.

For Juan Mata, I think there seems to be a few club offers. A player who will be free at the end of the season, I guess, is not getting too much. You also need to take a striker for Chelsea as well.

Hmm, I wouldn't say that their season is over, they lose some goals with Kane injured, sure, but it's not like the rest of the squad can't score goals, Dele Alli, Eriksen, Moura, Lamela, and Son once he returns, they still have a lot of quality players to fight in both the EPL and the Champions League.

About Morata, yeah, I doubt Chelsea would want to strengthen Tottenham's squad. Kalinic could be a good choice, although he might be out of form since he barely plays this season.

Of course, I'd say that over and over again! Not solely because of Kane's absence but we all know what Tottenham have been in the approximately last 10 matches over the past few seasons, they'd always go from being a title contender to barely finishing 3rd or  4th. And playing at multiple fronts including the champions league, league cup and the FA cup would be very exhausting and demanding for these players.

It’s a disaster for Tottenham to lose Kane for a long period. I know they have a good squad but Kane is without doubt their number one threat.

I think you can rule them out of the PL title race now & no chance in the CL.

They are out of the Premier League from a long time now and not only them but everyone else except Liverpool and Manchester City. Other teams miss the quality of the two leading teams so Premier League is over in this sense. The title will be decided between the two leading teams. On Champions League they also almost have 0 chances without Kane.

Btw, I have never put and predicted Tottenham as a potential champion in the PL, by losing Kane now then I think the results will still not be much different because Tottenham have players who are good enough in every line and I'm sure they can still maintain their position at least in the top 4 in the standings until the end of the season.

My point exactly, I didn't initially see Tottenham as a title contender. But they might however lose out on the top 4 slot aa well if proper care isn't taken and the fact that there's just a mere 7 points difference between them at 3rd and Manchester United as 6 makes it more feasible
for them to lose out on the top 4 race.

IMO they never were a main candidate to win the PL, they were simply one of the main candidates to reach top 4 (specifically 3rd or 4th place) at the end of the season.

On Champions League they also almost have 0 chances without Kane.

That's bold. I wouldn't rule them out completely tbh, Tottenham still have a lot of firepower in their squad. Sure, it'll be harder without your main goalscorer, but I'm confident that Poch and his players will put up a good fight.

Manchester United are in a top performance situation, they have won in several matches and this proves that Manchester United now have different powers after being abandoned by Jose Mourinho. at least that Manchester United will be able to enter the big four. besides that we should wait when Manchester United face teams like Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City. If Manchester United can beat the team, I am optimistic that at the end of the season Manchester United will be in the top 3 of the EPL final standings.

Bad news for Spurs Kane is injured it could be even one month break so he can miss CL games even

It's terrible news for Spurs. Kane isn't expected back to training until March, so it will be April before he playing again. He'll be out for both Dortmund games, the Carabao Cup and games against Chelsea and Arsenal. Moura is still injured, and Son is about to leave for the Asian Games for a month as well. All they've got left is Llorente, who is inconsistent at best.

Spurs will be very lucky to hold on to top 4 now, especially with the new run of from Man Utd find themselves in with OGS.

I'm not going to call Spurs a one-man team but this really is a devastating blow, but that's why you also need a world class bench if you're going to contend for the title as you can't just rely on one superstar. I think the battle is still going to be between City and Liverpool but Spurs could have gone on to do well in the Champions league. I think Dortmund will be too strong for them now especially without Kane.

No team is a one-man team but it's the equivalent of Barca losing Messi. Both are great teams but losing a world class  or even just your best player is devastating for anyone

I wouldn't have bet on them for sure, but give them a few years and they might. They've been finishing second and third for quite a few seasons so all they need is that little extra push. They need to strengthen their squad and maybe they will as the transfer window is now open but I could see them winning or maybe narrowly missing out on the title within a few seasons. If Poch leaves for United though that would be a huge set back. I'm not sure he will leave though.

Strange how none of us hate Spurs (actually really fancied their style ever since the Defoe days even) but never really tip them to win. Even after finishing 2nd in the Leicester season, I still still see them as featherweights. Liverpool's no stranger to punching above their weight, but Spurs seem to really know how to lose badly when it matters the most and then show up when it matters the least - sort of the opposite of what Liverpool used to be up until this season.

They're NOT a 1-man team for sure, but can't dismiss the 1-0 Kane goal wins we see pop up every now and then. Same as Pool and Salah. Case in point last game.

To be honest, I'm a Spurs fan and I never really considered us in the title race to start. I don't think we will do too well in the UCL either, Dortmund have been incredible this season and I think they are a level above us at the moment.

We haven't got a strong enough team and we normally perform very poorly without Kane. I still fancy us to get through in the Carabao Cup but the possibility of playing Man City whilst they're on top form in the final almost makes the whole process seem a bit pointless.

I hope I'm proven wrong but I just hope we still get top 4 this year so we can secure UCL football for the new stadium next season.

Arsenal vs Chelsea we have a London derby tonight and although is not to decide anything it is still good to watch. I don't think there will be many goals in this game. Probably they will play not an open game and try to get a better spot for the Champions League, I see that it decides something this game so I think teams will play with caution.

I think the morale of the players in Manchester United are high at the moment, they have won all the matches played so far after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer take over as the new manager, I think it will be another victory today for Manchester United when they play against Brighton & Hove Albion FC, and this would be a good opportunity for Manchester United to overtake Arsenal on the table temporarily.

Arsenal to win or drawn .Man United will win yet another game

Yes, Manchester United shouldn't have a significant obstacle to winning this match because they are in good condition now. Moreover, MU's home record is not too bad if we compare it to Brighton & Hove Albion's away record. Brighton & Hove Albion has seven losses from 11 away matches which is certainly not a good statistic to undergo today's match.

I don't think Manchester United are going to have an easy ride today against Brighton & Hove Albion FC, Brighton have also shown some big character in their recent matches and have only lost once in their last 5 matches, and it should worth noting that they've also defeated Manchester United in their last two encounter.
My expectation is an Under 3.5 goals for this match.

I'm backing Chelsea to win/draw in this fixture.
