Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[kro55]

I was really surprised by United's comeback. Both teams use 1 striker and 3 attacking midfielders. This is a match that is actually a draw. but Aston Villa's 2 goals in the first half cast doubt on United's ability to stage a comeback.
Ten Hag seems to need more effort to revive his squad. The season is still quite long, and there is a chance to catch up. Hopefully, fans will patiently wait for United's revival.

I was also surprised because Aston Villa's game that day was quite good, they were able to score the second goal in the 21st and 26th minutes. I was also quite disappointed with Aston Villa's defenders who played too much at the back. and the score couldn't help but change and the enthusiasm of supporters towards Manchester United became even greater. This Sunday's victory and revival is a breath of fresh air for Mu and Ten Hag. The reason is, in the last few weeks his playing performance has not been good.

Aston Villa lost the truck. We will now see the fall of this group. Aston Villa team was in excellent form. A win against Sheffield United would have seen them move to the top of the points table. It was not at all expected that the players would lose form at this moment. After dropping points against Sheffield United, Villa were also defeated against Manchester United.

Despite leading 2-0 in the first half, Aston Villa lost 3-2. I would say they were unlucky, as well as having some tactical mistakes. Manchester United team was not very strong. Manchester United would not have won this match if Aston Villa played a completely defensive strategy in the second half.

[bitpotter]

Manchester City must win because if not their position will become increasingly unsafe next week and maybe they will have to do everything in their power to win at Everton's home ground. They don't have much time to relax because that will further increase the gap from Arsenal or Liverpool who are currently competing. There wasn't much I could have hoped for and at least Manchester City won with a difference of 2 goals.

[Humblevirus]

It will be a kick-off match very soon between Chelsea and Crystal Palace, and I believe it is going to be an interesting match despite the fact that the both teams are not in good form right now, but I still think Chelsea should be a little better than Crystal Palace despite their not being in good form from their recent performances, so I am looking forward for Chelsea to be the favorite team to win the game, but if it is not able to win the game, they should be able to draw because it is their home game, and again, over some seasons now, I don't think Crystal Palace home won Chelsea, so I expected it to happen in that way because Crystal Palace is not playing well, It is always the case that Crystal Palace always appears very strong when they meet any team with a big name, but Big Big always finds themselves well out and ends well. So we are expecting Crystal Palace to win against Chelsea but a possible draw.

[adultcrypto]

Manchester City were in bad shape for few weeks most chances now we will have them back in business and things will be taken good change as they are improving, and their injured players are also on verge of return and January window is also going to have impact which will help them for having better things in second half of the season today we are going to witness how they will start their campaign after losing matches and staying away with Club world cup win.

Manchester City have improved remarkably in my opinion just that they are not back to scoring many goals in a single match. The last time they scored many goals in a single match was when they played against Chelsea in the four goals each draw match in Stamford Bridge. The implications might be that Mancity will not score many goals tonight and will not find it easy winning Everton who have not be doing badly too.

Everton is surely team to watch currently at the bottom with their four wins bring them out of the relegation zone, and they are doing their best for having improved performance and consistency which allow them to stay into safe zone for long time things could be not easy, but we can expect good interesting match from both teams in last match of the year.

Everton has turned into a team that becomes strong or weak when no one is expecting them to. Tonight many people are giving them benefit of doubt that they could surprise Manchester City,  I will not be surprised if they are humiliated in their home and their ego shattered.  On the other hand, they could also become a nightmare to Manchester City considering that people would have already written them off. My best guess is that Everton will score irrespective of wether the win or lose.

[hahay]

Manchester City have to make up the points gap with Arsenal and Liverpool, so I think they will play this match to the best of their ability. Everton's advantage is playing at home, while Manchester City is still missing several players due to injury. Pep Guardiola knows what he has to do in this match, so I think he will win this match after dropping a lot of points in his last few matches.

Doku, Haaland and Rodri are reported to be doubtful but I think still City has got the density with quality players in their squad and should able to score goals today. Everton have been a tough opponent in past few games but City are really far ahead in front of them and Guardiola can really build a match winning squad still out of the remaining options he has. They have to win the match as they are behind with quite some margin according to their standards and have to get back on track as soon as possible.

Yes indeed, because Manchester City is at least already behind Arsenal and Liverpool this moment then ya, of course it is Manchester City target to win the away match against Everton this time. After all, basically Manchester City also has a good winning record against Everton and as such, Manchester City should still win in this match.

At least, a team as good as Manchester City should still be able to play well even if several key players are injured. Because ya, with the good management that Manchester City has, Manchester City should have second tier players who also have good quality. Therefore, it is not surprising that even though Manchester City is in a bad situation at this moment, in reality Manchester City is still the favorite team to win this match.

This Sunday's victory and revival is a breath of fresh air for Mu and Ten Hag. The reason is, in the last few weeks his playing performance has not been good.

Aston Villa lost a great opportunity to win the game no thanks to poor defending. They got two goals in the first half but still lost because of the lack of concentration of the defenders. It was a good game for Manchester United because they needed these three points after suffering from consistent loss. The team's ability to keep attacking even when they are two goals down is encouraging. I have always advocated that Erik ten Hag should be given more time, maybe he might be able to give the Red Devils a champion league slot this season. Newcastle United's loss to Nottingham Forest favoured United because it gave them the chance to move to sixth position.  They might drop down to seventh position if West Ham beats Arsenal tomorrow, which is highly unlikely.

Everton is surely team to watch currently at the bottom with their four wins bring them out of the relegation zone, and they are doing their best for having improved performance and consistency which allow them to stay into safe zone for long time things could be not easy, but we can expect good interesting match from both teams in last match of the year.

Yes, good point. Surprisingly they have been performing quite well. The win against Newcastle with 3-0 scoreline was really something that boosted them and they continued to win few more until their game against Spurs. Still City are far ahead in level terms if we compare them to Everton and City needs points right now and they want to make themselves on track and certainly will try their best out to win the match. I think City has got this in today's match against Everton.

If nothing else I will be more confident about the update that Kevin de byrune has started training and can possibly feature in any of their game as I so much have faith in the Belgium because of his winning mentality and also his ability to influence the game greatly with all his beautiful and splendid passes.

Manchester city are really suffering when it comes to getting a convincing performance and they have struggled to meet up with battle for the title and one would think with the form of their opponent, the match will really be interesting to watch to see if Everton can cause another upset for them.

They don't have much time to relax because that will further increase the gap from Arsenal or Liverpool who are currently competing. There wasn't much I could have hoped for and at least Manchester City won with a difference of 2 goals.

This is no time to relax. It's a winning day for Guardiola and the players. Today, Manchester City must stop the bad trend against Crystal Palace. Manchester City has had a lot of draws in recent weeks, they always ended up losing points, and there was also a defeat against Aston Villa. Everton is an easy opponent, I think we will see plenty of positions and goals from Manchester City in this match. Even though 2.5 overs is a bit risky, I trust Manchester City and Guardiola in this match.

[Oluwa-btc]

Nottingham Forest will be a tougher opponent for Manchester United than Aston Villa was, because they are quite consistent in their team output and everyone knows their place, unlike Manchester United where the teammates still trying hard to be a better fit for the managers book, rather than for the betterment of the team.
I was happy for Hojlunds first goal sincerely and if he can pair well with Rashford or Martial am sure he would shine better with more goals to his name.

That's not correct, because they have not been a consistent side in the Premier League before the signature of former Tottenham Hotspur and Wolverampton head coach.
They've just sacked them former head coach before Nuno Esprito Santos appointment. They lost them first game though against Bournemouth narrowly. Three points against the best defending club from last season was a good show. With Manchester United comeback against Villa who have not lost too much games this season under Unai Emery.

Martial? He's been listed amongst players who will be seen leaving the club. Marcus Rashford have been useless this season, he did well regardless last night as he was responsible for laying the assist for Garnacho to score.

Few minutes to start the match, we know Crystal Palace surprised us by drawing with Manchester City in their last match and we know that Manchester City are better than Chelsea even though we don't view football that way, but still I don't believe Crystal Palace will win Chelsea but let watch and see.

[RockBell]

After a series of bad performance, Manchester City are slowly starting to drift further away from the top spot on the table. I think Pep Guardiola will need to lead Manchester City back to their dominating form in the English Premier League in order to catch up with Liverpool and Arsenal. I guess Manchester City should be able to beat Everton for their next upcoming match at the final whistle.

And as they are falling behind they will even find it more difficult to make it to the top now the battle is now between Liverpool and Arsenal they are just taking turns. And that task you given pep now is going to be difficult because pep is now clueless. On what step to take next, and it will be very hard for they to climb back. Am see that this game might end draw because Everton will play with a mind set that Manchester City is week.

I think Pep will lead Manchester City to a big comeback. You're right about the recent dip, but this club has showed resilience before. No doubt, Kevin De Bruyne's comeback changes everything. His absence was noticeable as City missed his playmaking. For their upcoming match against Everton, I'm optimistic. Even with City's recent form, Everton isn't competitive. Not only does Pep have outstanding players, but he strategically uses his group. His genius shows there. Can we discuss Pep's pressure management? His adaptability and coolness are outstanding. I expect their next game to be strong

Bigback they will seriously need to work hard in this situation is not only for pep but in the entire team, it is suppose to be a collective work. For quite some time de brune absence has affected the performance of the club but if he comes back his. Coming back will affect the club they will feel more motivated. And the game will get more tough between the two I don't know why I have a strong feeling about a draw game. Stop saying Everton is not competitive at the end of the day you might get surprised.

[BITCOIN4X]

It will be a kick-off match very soon between Chelsea and Crystal Palace, and I believe it is going to be an interesting match despite the fact that the both teams are not in good form right now, but I still think Chelsea should be a little better than Crystal Palace despite their not being in good form from their recent performances, so I am looking forward for Chelsea to be the favorite team to win the game, but if it is not able to win the game, they should be able to draw because it is their home game, and again, over some seasons now, I don't think Crystal Palace home won Chelsea, so I expected it to happen in that way because Crystal Palace is not playing well, It is always the case that Crystal Palace always appears very strong when they meet any team with a big name, but Big Big always finds themselves well out and ends well. So we are expecting Crystal Palace to win against Chelsea but a possible draw.

Chelsea are favorites to win the match, especially since they are playing at home. The last match didn't go according to plan, that's because Chelsea had to bow down and be beaten by Wolves 2-1. Today Chelsea has the opportunity to come back and win the match, their squad or line up looks convincing to do so.

To be honest, I don't fully believe that Chelsea can win their home game against Crystal Palace, but the good news is that Chelsea seems to have a superior probability of winning it. Christopher Nkunku has scored 1 goal in 1 appearance for Chelsea in the Premier League so far, so I think he is a player who will help Chelsea win the match against Crystal Palace. Kick off is coming soon, I'm waiting.

[Jody.Drummer]

The factor in Man City's declining performance this season is due to the absence of De Bruyne in the Man City squad, because De Bruyne was the key to Man City's success last season, the mature passes provided by De Bruyne were really effective for Erling Haaland in scoring goals this season.  So, at least Pep Guardiola can look for a player who can replace De Bruyne this season until the injury he suffered is completely healed.

The problem with winning the match against Everton is that Man City will definitely try to get full points in that match, but if fate says otherwise then the result that occurs in the match will at least be the best for both clubs.

Actually of a truth Kelvin de Bruyne is the Manchester City key player do to the kind of role he plays for Manchester City and the continuous creativity he poses on every of there matches, so actually it was very difficult for Manchester City on his absence at first but later on they were able to replace someone on that position and they were doing very well in most of there matches to the extent of leading at the top of the premier League table but however it was quite unfortunate that they began to lose form when they have actually gone far on the premier League season. So since they were able to go that far of topping the premier League table with the absent of Kelvin de Bruyne I doubt if there reason of declining is because of Kelvin de Bruyne absent.

KDB is a very important player in the Manchester City squad, in the early days they played without him, his absence on the pitch was felt and that was one of the reasons why Manchester City declined. But slowly they can find the form of the game even without KDB, but still it still feels unlike when she can play.
This is a dependency in my opinion, I mean when a club relies a lot on 1 player in its creativity then when it loses it will be felt. So as a club they should have many who can be creative and not just rely on one person. Although I know that there are always people who appear and are very influential, but the coach must also be able to divide the portion on each player so that there is a balance that if at any time one player cannot be deployed, they still have players who can replace their role well.

[letteredhub]

Yes indeed, even though Manchester City play away against Everton in today's match, of course Manchester City will be the favorite team to win. But yes, even though Manchester City are still predicted to win in this match, I think it's still not easy either because yes, at least Everton are also still in a good trend at this moment.

Manchester City has taken longer time than I expected to bounce back to the top of th tree, but no doubt they should clean this match without any struggle even though Everton has been performing nicely the past weeks, I still think Manchester City will not take any chance in today's match. Guardiola is already piss with critics because of the slow recovery of the team but he says what maters is the end result which I believe he will deliver for certain.

What's more, it looks like Haaland will also not be played in this match because he is still injured but maybe I'm wrong, because I also still don't know the information related to Haaland in this match whether it will be played or not.

But yes, if for example Haaland still cannot be played in this match then of course it is still not easy for Manchester City to beat Everton in this match. At least, Manchester City's previous match when playing at home against Crystal Palace, at least that match will be a consideration too for this match. After all, although on paper Manchester City are still very favored but yes, at least Manchester City also still have a chance to fail.

Haaland is not coming and I don't think his absent will be felt that much considering the available players that are going to represent the team to night. Even if he should come, I don't think much will be achieve because in the last few matches of his, he didn't do much and some couldn't score a goal.

Perhaps Haaland has began to feel the absent of Kelvin, last season he never have a single break and never had to struggle for ball but it looks like he is now doing the only attack KDB was doing and while he does the score. People's opinions might be right when they say he can't do well without KDB because he has begin to show exactly that prowess but since Kelvin is back, maybe he will improve.

The situation with Haaland should be something to remind strikers not to fully depend on anyone in the team for creation of goal chances for them, they ought to be a struggling striker that fight for their own goals  and not just positioning waiting for a pass to come through for a prolific midfielder like KDB as in their absence you will be greatly stranded of goals. Having said that, Haaland hasn't been a lazy striker though, he has been able to manage his leading position as the highest goal scorer in the EPL so we can't really say for sure he's deeply affected by KDB's absence that much just that the team as a whole has not been up to expectation in winning matches since the absence of KDB. But am happy he is back and could fixture in any of their games any moment now.

[bitzizzix]

Manchester City must win because if not their position will become increasingly unsafe next week and maybe they will have to do everything in their power to win at Everton's home ground. They don't have much time to relax because that will further increase the gap from Arsenal or Liverpool who are currently competing. There wasn't much I could have hoped for and at least Manchester City won with a difference of 2 goals.

In this match, maybe Manchester City is still the favorite team even though they are playing at home to Everton, because if you look at the two teams head to head. Everton has never won against Manchester City in the last 13 matches, including playing at home.
And Manchester City must be able to win the match against Everton to close the gap with Liverpool and Arsenal who are at the top of the standings, even though Manchester City is able to beat Everton. However, their points tally is still far behind Liverpool, namely 6 points and Arsenal 7 points if Arsenal are able to beat West Ham in tomorrow's match. And this will be Manchester City's hard work for the next matches.

[Mame89]

Of course even if Manchester City plays away against Everton Manchester City will surely win them because Manchester City has more talented and quality players than Everton

What is certain is that this match will be exciting and of course Man City must get three points in the match against Everton so that they can once again compete with Arsenal and Liverpool in the competition for the EPL League title.

although I'm not disputing the fact that Everton is not in a good performance but on the contrary I'm only stating the fact because if we should consider Everton performance and the clubs they have meet and how they perform we will see that Manchester City is on a favourable side of the match, because the last time Everton meet Manchester United they lose the match against Manchester United with 3-0, so first Manchester United to give Everton 3-0 on there meeting when we no that Manchester United is very inconsistent in times of performance so there is every likelihood that Manchester City will surely give them more than what Manchester United gave them  on there last meeting.

Man City has just won an inter-club cup title, of course this is the reason they were able to win. Even without Haaland and KDB, who are currently still not fit. Man City still has players Jack Grealish, Matheus Nunes and Phil Foden who can provide feedback to Alvarez.

Even though on paper Man City is superior, they still shouldn't underestimate Everton because they were able to record four consecutive wins in the league before finally losing to Tottenham. However, I still think a player like Sean Dyche is capable of changing Everton's game for the better and surprising Man City.

[BIT-BENDER]

Although Everton lost in their last game against Tottenham Hotspur I think they play well and deserved more than just a goal in that match. Manchester city is coming back from lifting the world club cup competition certifying Manchester city as the best club currently in the world, this makes them my favorite in today's game.
I think Manchester city would break Everton defense and score multiple of goals but I think it would be a both team score result.

Chelsea  vs  Crystal palace

Chelsea are playing at their home today against Crystal Palace. I don't expect much from Chelsea. Their performance is very erratic. So I have refrained myself from betting on this match.

Chelsea's past record against Crystal Palace is very good. Chelsea last dropped points against Crystal Palace in 2017. Chelsea have won their last 12 matches against Palace. However, it is difficult to say whether Chelsea can continue this winning streak this season. Although Crystal Palace is a weak team, they will try to get 1 point by drawing in this match. On the other hand, since the performances of Chelsea's players are so erratic, there is no way to say for sure whether they will do well.

[Chilwell]

Everton v Manchester City
Lineup
XI | Ederson, Walker (C), Stones, Akanji, Ake, Rodrigo, Nunes, Bernardo, Foden, Grealish, Alvarez

SUBS | Ortega Moreno, Phillips, Kovacic, Gomez, Gvardiol, Bobb, Susoho, Lewis, Hamilton

Everton Starting XI vs ManCity: Pickford; Patterson, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Gomes, Onana; Harrison, Garner, McNeil; Beto.

Substitutes: Virginia, Keane, Coleman, Godfrey, Hunt, Calvert-Lewin, Dobbin, Chermiti, Danjuma.

Will Everton face another defeat again? They are hosting Manchester City and currently Manchester City are in a better position to win because thay have good performance than Everton, Everton are still suffering from that point deduction, but let wait and see the outcome of the game.

Chelsea  vs  Crystal palace

Chelsea are playing at their home today against Crystal Palace. I don't expect much from Chelsea. Their performance is very erratic. So I have refrained myself from betting on this match.

Chelsea's past record against Crystal Palace is very good. Chelsea last dropped points against Crystal Palace in 2017. Chelsea have won their last 12 matches against Palace. However, it is difficult to say whether Chelsea can continue this winning streak this season. Although Crystal Palace is a weak team, they will try to get 1 point by drawing in this match. On the other hand, since the performances of Chelsea's players are so erratic, there is no way to say for sure whether they will do well.

I don't think Chelsea will drop points in this match. Although Chelsea's performances have been erratic, they are not a weak team. Chelsea is playing for 3 points against Crystal palace in today's match.

The defense of Crystal Palace is very weak. And poor defense has kept the team at the bottom of the points table. Chelsea players will probably want to make good use of the weak defense. Crystal palace conceded 26 goals in 18 matches. On the other hand, in the last few matches we have seen the performance of Chelsea's attacking players improve a bit. My guess is that Chelsea will score more than 2 goals in today's match.
