Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Sunderland]

I should have bet on an Arsenal win, because Fulham are dead lately, as these guys score two goals and lead, though there's still a bit of time left in the match... But I don't think Arsenal will be able to score two more goals... But Spurs are in the lead for now...

The Fullham vs Arsenal match will soon be over and it looks like Arsenal can no longer hope to even just equalize the score. Well this is a very bad result from Arsenal. I think Arsenal have really gotten worse recently. Even though in terms of performance they are quite good. But they seem very difficult to make a good finish. In fact, I'm confused about where Arsenal's mistake is now. What is clear is that they are not optimal at this time. And losing twice in a row is a harsh blow for Mikel Arteta and the Arsenal squad. This will only make Arsenal allow Aston Villa to overtake them.

And now the match ends with a score of 2-1 and Arsenal loses. Well, now Arsenal has been thrown into 4th place in the standings. Liverpool still leads and is followed by Aston Villa and Man City.

Dang, I knew the match will be Over 2.5 but I thought Arsenal will win this one.
They only got 1 point from 3 games in the league, they will host Liverpool on Feb 2024 later and if they cant beat Liverpool at that time = no hope to win the PL.

[marcous]

Arsenal is playing against Fulham today. I think this another opportunity for Arsenal to gain another 3 point. I don't see this game as a threat for Arsenal. I'm expecting a win from Arsenal and 3 or more goals to be scored in this match.

This is what the whole world expected but football has a way of proving everyone wrong. Today is a very bad one for Arsenal as their hope of winning the premiership title is about to be dashed. When Bukayo Saka scored his early goal at the 5th minutes, the excitement was second to none as Arsenal thought their title chase was alive and going well. Little did they know that Fulham will fight back. At the 29th minutes, Raul Jimenez scored the equalizer while Bobby De Cordova-Reid scored the 59th minutes goal that gave Fulham the lead. At this point, Arsenal fate is hanging in the balance and one thing that is certain is that their chances of winning the title this season has just became bleak.

It seems that Arsenal fate in the hunt for the EPL trophy is always gloomy, they have lost points again and have to accept the bitter reality of being in 4th place in the standings after being beaten by Fulham. this defeat is also very meaningful for Aston Villa and Man City, two clubs who are very happy about the misfortune that befell The Gunners in the last two matches. just waiting to see how Liverpool will celebrate the new year, I think Klopp will bring The Reds to secure full points by beating Newcastle.

On other hand, I don't think expect Fulham to be able to beat one of the title challengers namely Arsenal previously, apparently they have a secret weapon to make Arteta squad cry all night, even throughout the second half of the season. because in my opinion this defeat will have a very big impact on Arsenal, they will definitely have difficulty overtaking the position of Aston Villa and Man City in the future.

Arsenal are gradually losing their concentration, I understand that there are many factors that influence this, the hope is of course that they can regain their rhythm in the future. But at the moment they are very frustrated, Especially Arteta who has a big responsibility for the team performance.

[püsür]

I think all players who join Manchester United will start to fade in terms of performance and even their careers and when talking about that, of course Onana is the clear example. We know how great he is as an Inter goalkeeper and quite a few people praise him. But what happened when he joined Manchester United was the beginning of the destruction of the career he had built and day by day he was also unable to fix his bad performance.

I think Erik Ten Hag is just a mediocre coach who is overly exaggerated by the media and Red Devils fans and as a result we know that he is deemed inadequate in managing this team. Manchester United invested quite a bit of money from last season to last summer and what were the results? we just look at the joke team every week and hope to win a major trophy in any competition.

I do not think that it is strictly about the coach, because he did manage to make them great last season, but I think it is more about the fact that the owners are not caring about how to rule the club so they are not hiring anyone decent. Remember, when you are talking about staff, it is not always the tracksuits, the coaches, the fitness trainers, the set piece coach, the trainer, not like that, it is also about the suiğts, the guys like director of football or general manager and so forth.

I believe that it is that part which is wrong with this club and they are having trouble. I mean it is obvious from the get go, why? Because they needed much better defense, and instead went and paid like 80 million or something for Antony instead, they could have gotten a much better defender for that price.

There are so many problems at United. the Glazers, Alex Ferguson and of course the main problem Erik ten Hag gave 95 million euros to Antony who has no qualifications, 75 for Hojlund for a season of uncertain performance, sent off Ronaldo, sent off Sancho, gave 51 to Onana. And many more incidents I can't count, but he is still in charge of the team, it's really unbelievable. The great United has turned into a farm. Ten Haag isn't actually a bad manager, but United won't be good with him, that is for sure now. The players don't trust him either. Because of this lack of trust, the team misses simple goals in the facility, in training and concedes simple goals. I don't know whether Zidane or Conte or someone else will come but there is no chance of finishing in the top 10 of the league at this rate. The team cannot make a continuous comeback like last week.

I am really disappointed by the result of Arsenal vs Fulham match. The Gunners know how crucial this match was after having lost in their last match. They started strong last time against Westhampton united and still did so today with Saka's opener.
Should I say that the Christmas celebration somehow downed the performance of the gunners side, because this wasn't how they began the season or is it that other teams have suddenly found their form and Arsenal has always not performed better than when Arsene Wenger was the manager?

Well, Tottenham had to win and this make them close up the gap that existed between them and the top four spot holders.

[Coyster]

Back to back defeats for Arsenal (against West Ham and now Fulham), and that leaves them in 4th position as the year comes to an end, Arsenal are in a pretty sticky patch right now and they are winless in their last three EPL games, i know some people people might cry that it is a crisis, but i don't think it is, Arsenal are just 2 points off the summit, so for now nothing has changed as regards their title charge. The problem Arsenal has is that City are unstoppable when we get to the title run-in, City can go on long winning runs, and this is why i think both Liverpool and Arsenal won't win the title, but City will.

Yea , super unexpected defeats in a row for Arsenal because frankly , I had them to finish on 1st position before 2024 but it turned out very awful. I also had them to win EPL this season but after this 2 last games , I'm not so sure if they will be able to keep the fight until the end or they will find the necessary strength to start a winning streak because without a winning streak , it will be hard to catch Liverpool.

It's really a damaging defeat for their title aspirations, I never saw this particular lose coming unlike the westham game which I believe it can be won by either side.
They will surely be biting their teeth in regret now to lose to a Fulham side that have been out of form for quite a while now.
Just as you have already said, they just need like 10 match winning streak to put them back on track, which it's near impossible with this arsenal team that is too inconsistent.

While all football fans rejoice in welcoming the arrival of the new year, Arsenal is saddened by consecutive defeats in the EPL. This result makes Arsenal even further behind Liverpool who are at the top of the standings. If Liverpool manages to win in week 20, the points deficit will increase even more. Arsenal is still stuck in fourth place with 40 points, only one point different from Tottenham, which is one rank below.

Losing points in the last three matches made Arsenal close 2023 very disappointingly, Manchester City, which had lost control in several matches, has started to find its path again. Now it is increasingly difficult for Arsenal to regain first position due to their inability to perform consistently which results in losing a lot of points.

[JeffBrad12]

Arsenal can play so well and win the game against the team that was not playing fully defensive. The main weakness of arsenal has been revealed and thanks for westham and fulham for that. It makes it clear if arsenal's main weakness was low block.
The gunner was always pressuring its opponent but the club feels so difficult to go to the penalty box. Arsenal got some golden chances but it gave nothing as the attackers were not able converting it to the goal.

Arsenal had another disappointing day. Arsenal can't transform from offensive to the defensive as soon as possible, some players were out of their positions and it makes defenders were not ready yet when its opponent create direct counter attack.

It is a setback for arsenal coz club can't concentrate for over 90 minutes. Arsenal needs to fix it and the only solution by buying a new defender who can play consistently in any game.

This club was poor when it faces a defensive club like that. So, other big clubs just need to play the same like westham and fulham. Main weakness of arsenal = parking bus.  

[bering]

The loses from Fulham is really unexpected that after Bukayo Saka scored at 5 minutes i thought Arsenal will added more goals but surprisingly Fulham was made epic comeback which make they can fliped the situation and beat Arsenal however this is Arsenal first loses from Fulham since 2012 and indeed Arsenal currently thrown out of runner up position because Aston Villa was taking over second place from them but i think Arsenal still on the race for the title but Arsenal should be playing more consistent for upcoming matches

Just like i said before finally after 11 years never win from Arsenal today Fulham was gets their winning result again and this is so important because currently Fulham has 9 difference points above to the team from relegation zone and their position looks safe now but indeed if we see from their schedules seems Fulham wasn't lucky because for next month they have tight schedules that at Carabao Cup they will facing Liverpool and after this match at Premier league Fulham will facing Chelsea which is this is hard match too for them

Arsenal vs Fulham

Soon we will see the match which will be held at Fulham's home ground. On the other hand, these two clubs are quite far apart in the standings table, where Fulham is in 14th place while Arsenal is far above them, in the top 4 of the standings. in the last five matches Fulham could only achieve two wins and the rest were losses, while for Arsenal themselves in the last five matches they could only achieve two wins, two defeats and one draw.

Bukayo Saka remains Arsenal one of the best player because his performance on this match is quite remarkable and he was able to help Arsenal with a goal he scored on the early minutes of the match but however Fulham seem to have identified the Arsenal strength and were able to hold Arsenal with 1-1 draw on the first half.

Actually nobody would have believe that Fulham performance will be this impressive after all there poor performance lately perhaps they have history with Arsenal to have given Arsenal this tough time, however while I was posting Fulham has just scored Arsenal again, what an impressive performance by Fulham and for now with the way the match is going Fulham will either win or draw with Arsenal.

London derby games are always tougher than you can think, I saw that in the game against West Ham and today, I've seen the same against Fulham, they made it difficult for Arsenal. Saka remains one of the top lads in the Premier League even if he hasn't done like he should. Last season he was key to the attacking Arsenal. I see that a great form has dropped and he needs some good number of games to sit on the bench and rest.

They made some couple bad decisions on the pitch today though, as they gave too much of thise back passes which should habe gone forward. Mikel Arteta needs to rest some of bis players during the upcoming Fa Cup Competition fixtures.

Tottenham Hotspur be enjoying from Son's goals, they should enjoy because he'll be gone very soon.

It is incredible what's going on with Arsenal. Just like the previous year, they won many matches then suddenly start to lose and drop points until they lose the first place. Gunners took only one point in the last three games and 4 points out of 15 points in the last five matches. That's a very poor result, otherwise they would be secure in the first place.
In this match they started very well, scored an early goal before receiving two goals from Fulham and lose. They are following the steps of Manchester United right now for good!

In this round, there is two matches that will be played tomorrow and the day after. Liverpool are favourite in tomorrow's game against Newcastle which is doing bad also, just like Arsenal and Manchester United. Brighton and West Ham United will be a very hard and interesting game with good odds and slight advantage for West Ham.

Yea , super unexpected defeats in a row for Arsenal because frankly , I had them to finish on 1st position before 2024 but it turned out very awful. I also had them to win EPL this season but after this 2 last games , I'm not so sure if they will be able to keep the fight until the end or they will find the necessary strength to start a winning streak because without a winning streak , it will be hard to catch Liverpool.

A very disappointing way to end the year for Arsenal. I wish things turnaround next year but from what we can see presently, the hopes of winning the league has been dashed. It's painful to see how Arsenal and Tottenham started the league but things are going opposite for both teams now. The head couch Arterta is also part of Arsenal problem because his frequent tactics has been studied by most of the teams and he still puts more emphasis on the wingers. To defeat Arsenal become easier as far as you can defend and play a counter attack football. You can not continue with same tactics week in week out and expect different results.

After Manchester United spoilt my mood yesterday, I thought I have had it all but never did I expect Arsenal to fall my hand with Fulham, I'm looking for the right word to use for that club but I have none, nevertheless the are piece of garbage that gave their fans all hope to support only to let them down half way the journey. How can you not lose matches in the beginning of the season only to start playing gibberish matches and make one to lose money. Fulham that was trash by Burnley and Bournemouth but it was a hard day job for Arsenal to the same, the loss is on them, not me. 
 

Losing points in the last three matches made Arsenal close 2023 very disappointingly, Manchester City, which had lost control in several matches, has started to find its path again. Now it is increasingly difficult for Arsenal to regain first position due to their inability to perform consistently which results in losing a lot of points.

If things has gone well, they should be around 46 point to stay ahead of Liverpool but they are now behind Manchester City that were out of the top 4 some days ago, they now share similar points. Tomorrow is new year and I'm very sure that if Manchester City climb back that top of the tree in the standing, they will not back down again especially now that Kevin De Bruyne is back to strengthen their midfield.

They only got 1 point from 3 games in the league, they will host Liverpool on Feb 2024 later and if they cant beat Liverpool at that time = no hope to win the PL.

Just as last season Arsenal are still not ready for the EPL title they are about zhe repeat the caretaker role they played last season only for the title to be snatched by City at the end of the season. Although this season Liverpool will be in the favourite to lift the EPL trophy with Manchester City behind in the advent of Liverpool lagging behind in the race also. 2023 is a rap and right now we look forward to see more exciting shocking and yet surprising results as they unfold in 2024.

Fulham has been playing very well lately. I foresaw Arsenal losing this game after they lost in front of their own fans at the emirate stadium. You have forgotten that Fulham gave Liverpool a good fight at anfield. And they have been scoring a good number of goals lately. This is really a big loss for Arsenal honestly speaking. It is not too late for them to get their season on track again if they can rediscover their form.

Things are beginning to turn around in a negative way for the gunners as they have lost three games in a roll in the premier League so far, they lost against Aston Villa, lost against West Ham and today they lost again to Fulham which takes them back to 4th place in the league table. Regardless of the defeats that the gunners has faced lately I think they can still go all the way to win the league if they improve next year and stop dropping points since the performance of both Liverpool and Manchester City is not stable this season I think arsenal can still be a strong contender if they are able to work on their performance and their coach is ready to makw some adjustments in the team since it appears thdt his formation is no longer working as his team is not winning matches with that particular tactics. For the Tottenham team that also started the season very well but are currently in the 5th position, it's no longer a surprising thing to them fans and football lovers who has been following them, they start well every season but once rhey approaches the middle of the season they will either have injury cases that will keep their stars away from playing matches or they will face countless defeats that won't let them qualify for the UCL.

[Weawant]

Arsenal scoring the first goal gave me much hope that they are definitely winning this game with out much stress because they did possessed the first half of the game with so much strength an they were literally domineering in the early minutes of the first half of the game enough for me to be convinced they will win this game.

After the equalizer before the end of the first half, Arsenal started loosing their rhythm on the pitch so much so that they were no long able to dominate as they have done earlier, in the second half of the game it looked like Arsenal lost it as their opponent were all over the place not giving them a chance to score a goal and they were unable to penetrate the defense line enough to be able to secure a goal, this is one of the games I'm seeing Arsenal looking like the lost for especially in the second half, I was unable to understand their pattern and tactics.

I didn't think Arsenal would lose points today. After the first half ended 1-1, I thought they would take the lead in the second half, but Arsenal could not do this. They have put themselves in a very difficult situation in the league because if they lose in their next matches, their job will become even more difficult.

The fact that they lost points in the last 3 matches shows that things are not going well, but we see that the team does not react to this. With the result of this match, it is now even more difficult for Arsenal to catch Liverpool.

It is also necessary to appreciate the good game played by Fulham. It was not easy to beat a team like Arsenal and they did it. They needed this win after consecutive defeats.

[bitzizzix]

Arsenal's last 5 matches in the Premier League only recorded 3 defeats, 1 draw and 1 win.
Aston Villa 1-0 Arsenal
Arsenal 2-0 Brighton
Liverpool 1-1 Arsenal
West Ham 2-0 Arsenal
Fulham 2-1 vs Arsenal

And this is a sign that Arsenal is not performing well, it seems they have lost hope of winning the Premier League this season because their position has currently fallen to 4th in the standings.
And if in the next match Arsenal still loses they will be in 5th place in the standings, because they will be overtaken by Tottenham.
