Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL)

[daarul50]

I see Manchester United have very good results every time they meet the top 6 teams this season. They don't seem to have suffered defeat.

If Manchester United had been stronger against teams from the bottom half of the table or against teams that they ought to have won comfortably against, probably they should be title contenders at this time of the season, but inconsistentcy and poor performance against smaller teams is what's proving to be their biggest problem this season.

If you ask me, I'll say Solskjaer should be given more time as uniteds manager, this rebuilding process wouldn't happen in just one season, they have proven that they are not pushovers and that they can match the big teams on any day, it's up to the manager now to solve other lingering issues in the team and see if they'll compete for the title next season, a change of manager now would lead to a start from square one.

How weird manchester united roller coaster performance this year , held liverpool draw and the next couple weeks get disappointing result, beat chelsea and the next week get another bad result, held arsenal and tottenham draw and the next few weeks down to poor performance, now won against manchester city , what come next to manchester united?

this is the most inconsistent performance among any other premier club this season.

you can win with very high odds with manchester united as they always making surprises to all of us.
i believe yesterday they stand at 10 or 11 odds to win against manchester city. does anybody pick them out?

Leicester city might will just keep going to get full 3 points against Aston villa today

Hopefully not, I have an acca with Aston Villa 1X...I'm probably one of the few weirdos who expects The Foxes to drop points today lol But there's been a lot of upsets this weekend (Bayern, Juve, Chelsea, Man City, etc), why not expect another one? (:

Already 0-2 for Leicester. Although Aston Villa also had their chances. I think they will score in the second half. Placing small amount on BTTS and Southampton to win.

For the last game of the day - Brighton vs. Wolverhampton I predict Both teams to score at decent odds of 1.80. Both teams are in good form, having 6 or more shots on target for last couple of games, including difficult opponents. And they rarely keep a clean sheet so perfect bet for this match.

Go Leicester!
Vardy scored one more goal, and they are 1:2 at half time against Aston Villa.
They where better team so far, and lets hope they can keep like that in second half

In the second half Leicester were getting stronger and were able to add 1 more goal with Jonny Evans. Leicester became the new kebaggan even now a big team.
With successive matches wins and it will be easier to chase Liverpool with a point position far away.

It's not your day I guess mate ,

Leicester city leading 1-3 now with a solid rock defense also attacking minded they have, hard for aston villa to make it even draw . You need to let it go mate .

Edit : they just scored 4th goals!
What another great game! They shows a champion mentality so far , let's wait for the sloppy moment of liverpool in the 2nd half of season , I'm really waiting for that moment to come.

It's not your day I guess mate

Unfortunate. But I gotta say, I've seen cones in training sessions defend a lot better than Aston Villa, shocking performance.

Well, that's enough EPL for me this weekend, I was looking forward to Brighton vs Wolves (I had Wolves to WIN in my 3 fold acca) but The Villans certainly know how to dissapoint me and their fans :/

Btw, Newcastle are winning, that means they're above Arsenal in the league table lol 

[Raflesia]

The final result of this match

Aston Villa vs Leicester 1-4
Newcastle vs Southampton 2-1
Norwich vs Sheff for 1-2

Do you bet in 3 matches tonight there is luck?

[DireWolfM14]

Leicester was on fire today, but I can't help but feel sorry for them.  They are having such a great season.  Statistically they've got the best defense in the league, and effectively they are a stingy bunch.  Their offense is on par with the best of them, and this should be a championship year for them.  But then there's Liverpool, FFS.

That's gonna be another tough match for you , Brighton got boosted after beat arsenal. you do aware about that right? Wolves gonna struggle to get points there, I have a feeling draw might be the result.

I have norwich to win against Sheffield at live when they were leading at the first half @1.6 but things runs so wild at the second half the away team make a quick comeback within 5 minutes damn! Feeling pissed off now with that result.

Leicester won again very convincingly. Now they are the strongest candidates to challenge Liverpool in the hunt for the English league. Leicester in terms of the game is very compact and the players are very coherent. The very next match will be their time against Liverpool. If they win, then Liverpool will be a little depressed

[beerlover]

Rashford played like a 100+ million dollar man. United seriously played like a great team that is leading the league for like the first 30 minutes, of course it played a role that united played with hand twice in 30 minutes and didn't get the result, second one even with VAR for some reason refs hate being wrong so they just keep the results (except for penalty I suppose). After that city just played like hell but couldn't get the job done.

We couldn't do anything about it, I mean we all know city is much better team than United for sure, it is obvious but for some reason for the first 30 minutes United played like hell, I suppose it was due to strategy or something but whatever the reason was I am sure we will not get this much of a loss for a while again as gamblers.

There is still a long way to go to face Liverpool and there are still a few more weeks, Liverpool and Leicester must win in the next few matches if they do not want to be left behind. And there will face a big opponent, but for Liverpool, any heavy opponents will be conquered.

Brighton can do something at home and it should be 3 points for them today, I placed a bet for Brighton in the first half when they conceded
Now Brighton has 30 minutes to change the score 3-2 or 4-2  let's wait.

Out of curiosity do you think Manchester City are out of the race after falling 14 points behind? Personally I will not write off Manchester City just yet.

And do you think Leicester City will be fighting all the way till the end of the season? This season Leicester City have surprised everybody and showing better form than they did when won the Premier League.

[Upgrade00]

...

Yes, and Yes. 14 points after 16 games ia a very huge margin, Manchester City could effectively bounce back from their poor run of form, but it would take a dramatic drop in Liverpool's form to give them a chance at getting back in the race. As it stands, Liverpool are looking to extend the league on them every matchday.

Leicester City has been incredible this season, and I see no reason why they shouldn't maintain this form deeper into the season. Brendan Rogers gave a new breath of life to the team, and I feel they certainly deserve a top 4 finish at the end of the season.

I'm reminded of last season last December Liverpool left City 8 points. However, after the defeat against Manchester City, they began to often draw. It is interesting for us to wait if they will experience the same thing this season when they meet Leicester ... Because if none of the teams put pressure on Liverpool, they will surely win easily.

Man City odds to return is dropping after each game at the time when they should win every single game by + 2 or +3 goals...
Meanwhile Chelsea and United scores are getting closer. Wonder know if westham will hugs arsenal tomorrow in the same position or not!

[tokeweed]

^  They haven't had a clean sheet for the last how many matches now?  A lot.

Manchester City 1-2 Manchester United

 

Pretty big upset, a good match too.  It was fun to watch ManU take advantage of their few possessions.

Yup.  The first half was good, tho everybody could also blame City for their atrocious defending.  Which they kinda adjusted on the second half.

Still, I'd like to see more quick balls by United.

[DireWolfM14]

Out of curiosity do you think Manchester City are out of the race after falling 14 points behind? Personally I will not write off Manchester City just yet.

I wouldn't have said that before the ManU match, but if they want to compete for the league they need a severe attitude adjustment.  They aren't playing bad football, but it's almost as if they expect to intimidate their opponents into submission.  I still wouldn't count them out of the top four, though.

And do you think Leicester City will be fighting all the way till the end of the season? This season Leicester City have surprised everybody and showing better form than they did when won the Premier League.

Why wouldn't they?  In complete opposition to City, they are playing an inspired game.  I wouldn't be surprised if they were the only team to beat LFC this season. 

[FlamingFingers]

With the way Leicester City is playing I won't be surprise if they eventually give Liverpool a good run just incase Liverpool slip from some point s,  winning 1-4 away to Aston Villa proves they are title contender
