Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Weawant]

In this match, Aston Villa will definitely win because Sheffield United is the team in last position in the standings, so there is no other way to let Aston Villa get additional points easily. Sheffield United has no hope of recovering the points they have because the distance is too far, and this must be an important lesson for Sheffield United so that next season they are able to compete with big teams, and of course Paul Heckingbottom must be more serious about providing good and correct direction to the team he manages.

Their position on the table isn't a guarantee that Aston villa will win neither will it be a reason for Sheffield united to win either, position on the table is never a clear determinant of how well a team can perform or if they win or lose a game but then it's usually put in to statistical considerations as it also gives an idea in to what the team strength could possibly look like.

Astons villa is currently a better team compared to Sheffield, so far they have done much better than Sheffield this season and they did start their season on a considerably fair note. Sheffield has really been struggling this season and are yet to get out of the relegation and I doubt if this match will be a savior for them to be able to get out of relegation because they are facing an average side and not a weak team but then just like the game of football always turns out, it's very possible a draw will end this game and it's also possible Aston villa win because the odds are mostly in their favour and they are the favourite in this game.

Arteta is always having long term plan for the club and he was even better compared to the emery even though arteta never won prestigious trophy but it seems like that this time he can make it happen.
The only important question was how can he try to keep the performance become very consistent when it comes to the late season. We do know that how arsenal was always struggling at the end of season.

Last season's failure should be a lesson for Arteta that maintaining consistency is very important, especially at the end of the season, Arteta must be able to rotate his players so that no key players get injured, let alone playing players whose performance is declining, that will only destroy Arsenal slowly as is happening. last season where Manchester City got rid of them and won the EPL title for the umpteenth time.

Arteta must be confident in being able to win the title this season and he must show the quality of his squad at Anfield against Liverpool. If Arteta manages to win the match then Arsenal will have a wide enough points gap with Liverpool so that Arsenal can breathe a sigh of relief so they can focus on the match. next. As long as consistency is maintained, Arsenal will definitely be able to win.

[rendravolt]

I wonder if Arsenal regret their decision to replace Unai Emery with Mikel Arteta as the manager of Arsenal. Unai Emery has somehow transformed Villa Park into a solid fortress for Aston Villa this season, and even both Manchester City and Arsenal could not avoid a defeat against Aston Villa at Villa Park stadium. I think Aston Villa will beat Sheffield United relatively easily today in front of their home fans.

I don't think Arsenal will regret this decision unless with Mikel Arteta Arsenal failed in the previous season until now everyone will definitely feel disappointed. But in fact Arsenal was able to compete with Manchester City last season and this season they can still compete with several other strong teams in the top flight. Even though Aston Villa surprisingly jumped up and competed with Arsenal in the race for the title this season, I think that is not enough and Aston Villa can only secure the champions league zone if possible.

Against Sheffield it shouldn't be a big problem and Aston Villa will definitely win and they must secure another 3 points to maintain their chances of finishing in the best position this season and Unai Emery can do that if there are no obstacles in the future.

Yesterday's game between Palace and Brighton ended fair and squarely. For me, the game was actually going to be a tie for both teams. Even though Brighton was thought to be able to win the game, they gave them higher odds to winning which implies Crystal Palace being the better side over them yesterday. They did their best to hold the games but I for a fact knew Crystal Palace weren't going to take it easy and just embrace loss at home to Brighton.
 

I'm quite sorry that this season Brighton has experienced a slight decline in performance. I don't know whether it's an internal problem or not but compared to last season Brighton is much more stable. but there are some special notes when facing Crystal Palace many times they could only win narrowly. maybe several other clubs who feel  that Brighton is aggressive should learn from Crystal Palace the techniques for  breaking Crystal Palace attacks already  know the  ins and outs of Brighton strategy. There is still hope for Roberto De Zerbi troops to repeat the same thing as last season by finishing in the top 6. just need to wait  for the team above it to slip, especially Man United.

Yes, Brighton has indeed experienced a downturn this season and doesn't look very stable, experiencing two defeats and two draws from last five matches, which is a bad result. Brighton should be able to take advantage of the opportunities that exist so that they can achieve result like last season, finishing in the top 6, but Brighton still has a chance because he is in 8th place which is only 2 points away from Newcastle and 1 point away from Man Utd if Brighton can winning the next match without losing and drawing I think Brighton can shift the 2 teams that are in the top 6 like Newcastle and Man Utd, but if in the end Man Utd and Newcastle can add points then Brighton will not be able to overtake them.

[Promocodeudo]

Aston Villa is only 1 point behind Arsenal at the top of the points table. We never imagined seeing this team at the top of the table. Villa have lost three matches this season and drawn only two. If Aston Villa can win against Sheffield United in today's match, they have a chance to take the top spot in the points table for the first time this season.

Aston Villa's past record against Sheffield United is not good. Aston Villa have won just one of their last 5 matches against Sheffield. And lost in two matches. And so the players of Aston Vulla have to play very carefully in today's match. Although Sheffield United have been in a very weak position this season, Aston Villa are likely to lose points if they make any mistakes.

Upcoming match Aston Villa have weakness team opponent against Sheffield United and get potential three points will make Aston Villa close to second or top position standing depend Liverpool vs Arsenal match result will give benefit for Aston Villa move to the top standings. Left one points behind Liverpool automatically Aston Villa will lead top position for one day later because they have early match between Arsenal and Liverpool match.
Aston Villa performed quite well when playing at home and successfully achieved 8 wins of 8 home matches this season. Of course, the big opportunity for Aston Villa to rise to first place is quite wide open and Aston Villa's first achievement is in the top standings in the Premier League.

I agree that aston villa will be facing a weak team that's not in there peak, but you should also know that football must time is unpredictable, aston villa may be stopped today by this team, yes no doubt aston villa has been unstoppable in some couple of match they have played so far in the epl, I want you to understand that they are center of attraction now, every team want to prove them wrong, the English premier is at the tough stage which anything can happen, I know that you are using the recent form to judge, aston might be the favorite team in this match, we have must game played where under performed teams surprise their opponent, looking at the winning odd of aston against Sheffield United am not convinced that this match will be a work over for aston villa.

[abhiseshakana]

Let's us to see a big upset in this match, sometimes football is really unpredictable. Sheffield United might stun Aston Villa in this game and everyone will be shocked. One thing I like about the premier league is that every team is a threat. We might witness something different from what everyone is expecting from this game.

Aston Villa at Villa Park is like a king in a jungle, they have been winning more than 10 consecutive matches at Villa Park; because of that, I am seeing them as a threat to almost all teams in the Premier League this season because they have already defeated some almost all the best teams in the Premier League this season at Villa Park.

Talking about their performance and statistics, any of the two teams is good at home because statistically they were all winning while playing at home; if Sheffield United win this match, it will be considered as a big offset because of the form and position Aston Villa is this season.
If Sheffield united win, many people will be happy including Arsenal and Liverpool fans because Aston Villa is also hoping to win the Premier League this season.

Anything can happen in football, but if you look at their performance and what they have gone through so far, I think Sheffield United only has a very small chance of causing a surprise. The match will be held at Villa Park Stadium, so that will be an advantage for Aston Villa. Apart from that, Aston Villa is on fire and it is very likely that they will not want to miss the opportunity to take over first place, considering that their 2 competitors (Liverpool and Arsenal) have to face each other.

[Ondekinecakabilirim]

There is only one game in the Premier League today. Aston Villa play Sheffield United at home. Aston Villa are 3rd in the Premier League this season with 38 points. Unai Emery has created a great team. They have scored 37 goals this season. They are the top scoring team after Manchester City. On the other hand, Sheffield United are last in the Premier League. They have collected only 8 points so far. Also, they have conceded 43 goals. The odds on Aston Villa to win are low. I'll bet on over 2.5 goals in this match.

[samuraijin]

Betting on Aston Villa is not only safe but also has a high win rate and Sheffield should be alert considering that Aston Villa is really in an aggressive condition this season. Unexpectedly, Aston Villa was able to silence Manchester City and Arsenal at home. So now Aston Villa will host Sheffield also at home with their home record there is no hope for the visiting club to come away with points.

It’s safe to assume Aston Villa would come out victorious in the game against Sheffield hence it could be considered safe to place bets on them.
They surprisingly were able to hold down and win top dogs, Man City and Arsenal. That’s a team with enough grit and determination to win then and it likely won’t be difficult to win Sheffield now. But with football, the outcome could be totally different than predicted.

Aston Villa playing at home could strengthen their resolve to win the game. They’ve got to win all the games they can to remain amongst the top four in the table.

Actually, there is no need for special analysis to predict this match we all agree Aston Villa can win easily, Aston Villa are still motivated to secure a position in the top 4 and left Tottenham by collecting 3 points from each match which is considered easy. From the Sheffield side I feel they have no way to overcome relegation I mean Sheffield is just waiting for this competition to end and is ready to return to the championship league they wouldn't care about the result of this match because they understood the situation even if they win, it's just pure luck.

Aston Villa continues to look for points in every match they face, in this match Aston Villa really has a big advantage because Liverpool and Arsenal will face each other this week, because Aston Villa will win easily in the match against Sheff Utd to occupy the top of the standings, if Liverpool and Arsenal ended with a draw, Aston Villa is certain to rise to the top of the Premier League standings, this is really a season with very tight competition, we didn't even think that Aston Villa could surprise all the Premier League clubs because Aston Villa really played consistently in all The match he played makes it appropriate for all big Premier League clubs to be wary of Aston Villa in competing this season.

[lizarder]

This will be an exciting match because the battle for the top of the EPL standings is at stake between the two clubs Livepool and Arsenal, both are only one point apart and of course this victory is very necessary, Jurgen Klopp looks like he will surprise Arsenal at Anfield especially considering their previous failure against Manchester United with The draw was a bit disappointing, that's why against Arsenal, at least Liverpool should be able to get full points at Anfield.

This week will be a big match between Liverpool vs Arsenal because apart from competing to occupy first place in the standings, this match is also considered to be one of the matches that will determine who is the strongest in the English league this season. Both Jurgen Klopp and Mikel Arteta will try to give their best for their team, but I see Liverpool's chances will be much greater considering that the match will take place at Anfield. Liverpool will try to surprise Arsenal because this is an opportunity for them to shift Arsenal's position at the top of the standings.

Of the previous five matches, the two teams were quite balanced, where both experienced one defeat, one draw and the rest were able to achieve 3 wins in all competitions. If you look at the defense, Liverpool is far superior because they only conceded four goals while Arsenal conceded six goals in the last five matches.

[Iroh]

Yes, Brighton has indeed experienced a downturn this season and doesn't look very stable, experiencing two defeats and two draws from the last five matches, which is a bad result. Brighton should be able to take advantage of the opportunities that exist so that they can achieve result like last season, finishing in the top 6, but Brighton still has a chance because he is in 8th place which is only 2 points away from Newcastle and 1 point away from Man Utd if Brighton can winning the next match without losing and drawing I think Brighton can shift the 2 teams that are in the top 6 like Newcastle and Man Utd, but if in the end Man Utd and Newcastle can add points then Brighton will not be able to overtake them.

I did think Brighton would’ve had a much better performance than what they’re currently displaying. I had high hopes on their performance but they are so far underperforming on what I had expected. They had played and showed some good performances in the last phase of the last season and gave me the impression on a much better performance this season.
Currently sitting at 8th place, they may still have a shot at climbing up the rankings with a good number of games to play. Their game later on the 28th with Tottenham would be quite interesting to watch. It’s difficult at this point to predict the winner.

Aston Villa can win easily today there is a reason to win tickets to UCL of course
Ollie Watkins will score at least one goal maybe in the first half

Aston Villa has really come up with a good performance this season and they have held their ground at home by not accepting defeat from any club that comes to play then at home. U will say that Aston Villa will win Sheddield united because they also want to top the league, even though it is just for a day. The funny thing is that if Liverpool and Arsenal draw their match, then Aston Villa will be in a better place if they win Sheffield united.

The competition is getting tougher now as teams that are not consistent with their matches will be pushed behind and the serious teams will dominate the table. It is possible to see Aston Villa take over the first position on the table soon because I can see that they are determined and needs the trophy this season.

Sheffield United is not their mate, not this season. The underrated Aston Villa are in good shape this season, thrashing any opponents that comes their way without having any difficulty with the present situation. Unai Emery influence will enable his team win big matches this season, no room for any threat because they have face and won the main elite clubs that would have become a big challenge for them this season. Positive evidence is definitely what a club would record but they will need lengthy period to continue been in stable form. Aston Villa is leading interms of mediocre clubs in the EPL this season.

They have collected only 8 points so far. Also, they have conceded 43 goals. The odds on Aston Villa to win are low. I'll bet on over 2.5 goals in this match.

Anything can happen in this game for many people to lose their prediction in this game because, many people predicted for the favour of Aston villa and, Sheffield united will make the game difficult for Aston villa to win and the game will end for the favour of Sheffield united 1:2. Aston villa have a good results that make them to moved to 3rd position in the premier league table but that one doesn't mean they will achieve 3 points from this game and this game will mank Tottenham to take over the 3rd position from Aston villa to give their fans hope that they can still return back to the 2nd or 3rd position before the end of the tournament.

Something will surely happen in this game that will give Sheffield united opportunity to take a good lead that will make them beat Aston villa to drop their points and to let Aston villa know that not all teams that can take points from them in this season.

[Jody.Drummer]

Oh yes, I just realized this and indeed after seeing the schedule this week Aston Villa has the opportunity to feel the top of the standings with Liverpool and Arsenal having to draw, and they must win the match this week.
I think it will be an easy match for Aston Villa when hosting Sheffield United. Their difference is very significant and if Aston Villa do not win this match then it will be very disappointing. They can't afford to miss this good opportunity, because they are ahead in every way and their advantage is that they will also be the hosts.
Aston Villa are in a very good state right now, whereas the opponent they will face is not a reliable club.

Considering the performance of the top three teams in the English Premier League table, I think the match week 18 favours Aston Villa to go top of the league standings. Liverpool and Arsenal has been the most consistent team in the league since the start of the season and will both meet each other this weekend at Anfield. Bookies are backing the home team to win that particular encounter but judging by the impressive performance of the away team, it'll be very difficult to for Liverpool to beat Mikel Arteta's Arsenal. So if they end up playing out a draw, a home win for Aston Villa against Sheffield United at the Villa Park tomorrow will be enough to see the Villans climb to the submit of the league standings.

That is what we are discussing, that Aston Villa has the opportunity to be at the top of the table if the Liverpool vs Arsenal match ends with a draw.
Liverpool and Arsenal will definitely play their best to win and if they can't get a win, they will definitely think of playing it safe and only targeting a draw. Their performance now can be said to be almost the same, it makes the match more difficult to predict.
I probably won't bet on this match, because it's very risky, especially since my bet is a multi bet.

Arteta is always having long term plan for the club and he was even better compared to the emery even though arteta never won prestigious trophy but it seems like that this time he can make it happen.
The only important question was how can he try to keep the performance become very consistent when it comes to the late season. We do know that how arsenal was always struggling at the end of season.

Last season's failure should be a lesson for Arteta that maintaining consistency is very important, especially at the end of the season, Arteta must be able to rotate his players so that no key players get injured, let alone playing players whose performance is declining, that will only destroy Arsenal slowly as is happening. last season where Manchester City got rid of them and won the EPL title for the umpteenth time.

Arteta must be confident in being able to win the title this season and he must show the quality of his squad at Anfield against Liverpool. If Arteta manages to win the match then Arsenal will have a wide enough points gap with Liverpool so that Arsenal can breathe a sigh of relief so they can focus on the match. next. As long as consistency is maintained, Arsenal will definitely be able to win.

Arteta can bring something different to Arsenal, but his problem is at the end of the season where they can't maintain their consistency so it benefits other clubs. Yes Arteta must learn from their mistakes last season, one of which is about the depth of the squad they have. The long competition must be very tiring and if they don't have good squad depth, then the same thing will happen again. It must be anticipated, with a long competition players will be prone to injury and when the main players are injured they must be replaced by players who are really ready.

[Sexylizzy2813]

Manchester United are having so many players who don't know how to score goals and you'd agree with me that all United forward combined have not gotten the number of goals/assist there rejected Greenwood have gotten in this campaign in Spanish league.
To me I would like to see this guy (Mason Greenwood) come back to Old Trafford because as it stands, Manchester United don't any body that could create chances and score goals in that team.
Mason Greenwood is now a hot cake in the la Liga and if care is not taken either Barcelona or Madrid could come calling for him, it would be best if Man UTD allow him back in that team but if any of those interested clubs get Greenwood it would be a huge lose for Manchester United. And you'd agree with me that Greenwood is far better than Anthony currently.

The discriminated and underrated Mason Greenwood is having one of the best performance in his new club in La Liga this season, perhapes he's on loan and have gathered enough experience to bounce back to good form. The interesting question pops up, will Manchester United be able to welcome him back or they will underestimating him in EPL matches. Watching Mason Greenwood stellar performance in Getafe,  he's in his best prime and he won't back out, atleast not now that he has recovered his footings and confidence in matches.

Manchester United are currently having the worst form with them getting players who only think of individual play without making them play as one. Imagine Man UTD getting Greenwood back into the squad would be a great addition. I believe he would transform the red devils into something big, an unstoppable force in the EPL, that's what United will become.
My problem is that the fans may not entertain his presence because I feel they were the ones who stood against him when he was free from trial to join the team, so if this still continues I don't think Man UTD would recruit him. But mark my words, bigger clubs are going to come for him either January or by the end of the season.

Yes indeed, it looks like Aston Villa will get an easy win in this match because after all, this is a match between home teams that have managed to win all home matches so far . But for the away team, the fact is that Sheffield United is the team that has not got any win at all so far for away matches. So ya, it seems very clear that there is no chance for Sheffield United to be able to hold Aston Villa in this match.

At least, if Aston Villa wins this match then yes, at least for a while Aston Villa will be at the top of the Premier League table. But the point is, Aston Villa can certainly win in this match and thus, then of course the competition in the title race will be a tight competition this season.

[Oluwa-btc]

We've talked about this for quite sometime now here. Erik Ten Hag can't be sacked he had a great last season, the management of Manchester United can't overlook that aspect, they fail to do that and they're dump as Fvck. If he was lucky, then Jurgen Klopp was also lucky last season after seeing Liverpool crumble into the Europa League Competition. Liverpool management couldn't get him sacked because of the trophies he won the previous season..

Against West Ham United, that's gon be bloody game. The hammers will be seeing players like Kurt Zouma and former Southampton set piece taker back from Injury. They will definitely make that game hard for United. I don't expect much though, a double chance for Manchester United. Bruno Fernandez and Erikson should be back in the squad.

If everyone took into account past services to the club, then in this case it would be necessary to leave many coaches in their previous places, but it doesn’t work that way.

If the team is playing poorly now and the coach cannot correct the current results, then it is obvious that the team needs a new coach who can correct this. Ten Hag is not the coach who can return Manchester United to their former glory, this can be seen even from the players with whom he wanted to make a team. This is not enough to compete with the top teams in the Premier League.

You won't be saying that if you've seen Manchester United from the past managers like Louis Van Gaal, Jose Mourinho and David Moyes.
These coaches have all been sacked meanwhile, same deadwoods are within the club and has refused to leave. Backing Erik Ten Hag is the best option. He is a good coach and had the potentials of solving related with Manchester United.

Manchester United should rather see some certain players leave than the manager to leave. Most importantly had got to be the glazers who have decided to be selfish and have failed to invest correctly into the equiped materials for Manchester United training complex.
That's your opinion, Even Sir Alex Ferguson is backing the manager. Fans like you want change but can't master patience? Lol!! Crazzzy!!

Upcoming match Aston Villa have weakness team opponent against Sheffield United and get potential three points will make Aston Villa close to second or top position standing depend Liverpool vs Arsenal match result will give benefit for Aston Villa move to the top standings. Left one points behind Liverpool automatically Aston Villa will lead top position for one day later because they have early match between Arsenal and Liverpool match.
Aston Villa performed quite well when playing at home and successfully achieved 8 wins of 8 home matches this season. Of course, the big opportunity for Aston Villa to rise to first place is quite wide open and Aston Villa's first achievement is in the top standings in the Premier League.

Aston Villa has really come up with a good performance this season and they have held their ground at home by not accepting defeat from any club that comes to play then at home.

The competition is getting tougher now as teams that are not consistent with their matches will be pushed behind and the serious teams will dominate the table. It is possible to see Aston Villa take over the first position on the table soon because I can see that they are determined and needs the trophy this season.

Unai Emery is trying to bring Aston Villa to secure full points with Sheffield United, the scenario of leading the standings is another bonus if Liverpool versus Arsenal ends in a draw. On paper we really understand how Aston Villa performance has improved so far, if we look back a little they have prepared everything since last season. It is not surprising that currently some are calling them candidates to challenge for the EPL title along with Arsenal and Liverpool. I think that makes sense, although it's too early to guess how this rivalry will end up.

When I saw Aston Villa beat several big EPL teams, I thought Sheffield United was not a tough opponent. So betting on Emery squad to win is the right choice, it can provide quite a profit. Aston Villa real effort is to maintain the point difference from chasing Man City, while at the same time taking advantage of the momentum to lead the standings, even if only temporarily.

[Out of mind]

Aston Villa is only 1 point behind Arsenal at the top of the points table. We never imagined seeing this team at the top of the table. Villa have lost three matches this season and drawn only two. If Aston Villa can win against Sheffield United in today's match, they have a chance to take the top spot in the points table for the first time this season.

Aston Villa's past record against Sheffield United is not good. Aston Villa have won just one of their last 5 matches against Sheffield. And lost in two matches. And so the players of Aston Vulla have to play very carefully in today's match. Although Sheffield United have been in a very weak position this season, Aston Villa are likely to lose points if they make any mistakes.

Upcoming match Aston Villa have weakness team opponent against Sheffield United and get potential three points will make Aston Villa close to second or top position standing depend Liverpool vs Arsenal match result will give benefit for Aston Villa move to the top standings. Left one points behind Liverpool automatically Aston Villa will lead top position for one day later because they have early match between Arsenal and Liverpool match.
Aston Villa performed quite well when playing at home and successfully achieved 8 wins of 8 home matches this season. Of course, the big opportunity for Aston Villa to rise to first place is quite wide open and Aston Villa's first achievement is in the top standings in the Premier League.

This season Aston Villa is part of the competition for the Premier League trophy. Teams like United and Tottenham seem to be experiencing problems this season which makes it a bit difficult for them to enter the competition.
This season Man City experienced several unexpected problems. The difference is still not much, but they certainly still hope that Liverpool and Arsenal will catch up with the declining game.

Aston Villa have been in better from this season than Tottenham and Manchester City. We can say with certainty that this season they are going to be champions in the Premier League with great competition. Manchester City is not in such a bad position at the moment if they can win the next matches then it is definitely possible to progress. Points table Manchester City are not too low on points and if they go a few games they can overtake Liverpool and compete with Arsenal.
