Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Miles2006]

I this agree with the post above me, I don't think arsenal tried to win that game, I watch the match and first half both teams played very poorly, the chances Arsenal had were never a serious threat to Liverpool defense in any way. I think it was generally a boring match and both teams did not give it their all, Liverpool had some luck to end up winners in the end.

Enjoyed a very competitive game. Neither team could score until 80 minutes, Liverpool managed to score at the last moment. Jakub Kiwior scored the first goal to help the team win, and after the second game another call in overtime sealed the win for the team. And Liverpool team gained 3 points by defeating Arsenal team.

The victory over Arsenal indicates that Liverpool did not depend on Moh Salah, even though without him Liverpool were still able to give the best appearance that made Arsenal lose the place in the FA Cup. Liverpool managed to maintain its good performance, victory at the Emirates Stadium also gave an indication that they had no effect with the absence of Moh Salah who was defending Egypt in the African Cup.
They fought in the FA Cup, in this competition did not fight for the number of points because it implemented the knockout system.

Even with or without Salah I knew Arsenal can't win the match cause the team lacks the effort to push through, I don't know what's happening to the structure of the team cause during the early season Arsenal was not like this and it seems they'll continue playing like this each match day, Arteta should change the key starters if he really want the team to push forward this season, and seeing the premier league season now Manchester city and Liverpool will definitely kick Arsenal out from the game if they're not careful and now Bruyne is back so we might likely expect more from Manchester city.

Haaland's injury seems to be making Man City difficult. Since losing against Aston Villa, Haaland has not appeared. This makes Man City weak, and if it doesn't improve soon it might make it difficult for Man City to compete in the UCL or in the EPL. Man city has not found a player who can replace Haaland at this time. Although indeed in several matches Man City always won after Haaland was injured against Aston Villa.

Yes, you are right about this, Manchester City did seem to struggle when Haaland was injured. Man City's dull front line seems to remind Haaland of his important role, because without Haaland the team feels like it has lost its life if there are no key players. It looks like Pep Guardiola has to get used to it and look for a replacement for Haaland for a while, to stay focused and consistent when Manchester City's key player suffers an injury like this, so that the team's performance in the future still looks good and of high quality. That way, I'm sure they can definitely win the match in the next UCL and EPL matches.

Currently, De Bruyne has returned and immediately made a big contribution in last match against Huddersfield in the FA CUP by making 1 assist. And in that match Man City was able to win with a very big score, namely 5-0. In this match, there was visible development and increased sharpness in Man City's attacks. Maybe because they only played against clubs that weren't too strong. Because when Man City plays in the EPL, we all know that Man City still can't give their best without Haaland. So it is natural that all Man City fans will really miss Haaland. Because in big matches, only Haaland is able to make Man City's attack line very deadly. For small matches, maybe other forward players can do it too. But in EPL and UCL matches Haaland is really needed. I haven't found out when Haaland will return. Although previously there had been news circulating that Haaland had also recovered. But I haven't had time to read the latest news regarding its development.

It will be very deadly now that De Bryne is back to Manchester City while Haaland is on his way. The team is going back to the usual Man City team that won several competitions in one season. And the way i see it, since both of the key players will be playing soon in the EPL and UCL they have more chances of winning the titles again. It will only take luck if another team gets to win the title.

Obviously, Kelvin's impact was felt in their last match during the FA cup competition. It shows that he is fit and ready to give those unique passes and assist as usual. Actually, i don't want Manchester City to win the league again because they have had too much of it. But if it still goes that way am find with it. My choice for the EPL title is Liverpool and i want to see them win.

If Haaland can't play, they can actually apply the strategy where they haven't brought Haaland, which is to play without a pure striker or play with a false nine, but it's not easy because they also need to familiarize themselves with that strategy again.
But in my opinion it is not a big problem as long as KDB is in the squad again, because for me the life of the Manchester City game is in the role of KDB. This was very pronounced when Manchester City played without KDB. Usually when a team loses a striker but they have a player with the ability to read the game well, they will be able to play well too. The loss will be felt, but not that much.

If you check Man City last five games after they lost to Aston Villa, you'd see they won all of their premier league games and all these, Haaland was absent. So telling me the club missed his services is an understatement because if it were so, they won't have won those games, rather the reverse would have been the case instead, you can see that without Haaland, Man City is fine. Pep has trained his men to a standard that even when a good player like de bruyne was out, there was Foden to fill in the blanks and even though he can't be matched with the Belgian, you can say the Englishman did a fine job.
 It's quite funny to say Haaland is a big game player when we all know he doesn't really contribute much. Let's compare Haaland with Jullian Alvarez, who always shows how instrumental he can be for the club whether he scores or not. He (Alvarez) will either give you a goal, an assist or mark very well but that's not the same as Haaland, so you can't say Haaland is a big miss, let's say Haaland is out of the season and I can beat my chest that Man City won't miss him anytime any day.

[udidrone]

Now we just have to wait for how Liverpool will perform without Salah in their squad because after all, this must be passed but I still feel they will still be quite good in terms of performance, it's just that the problem of scoring goals is a little difficult.
Seeing from Klopp's statement about the current situation for Salah I think he is still quite optimistic about it because indeed some players like Eliot or maybe Gakpo who are converted as right wingers can still be done but on the other hand at this time Klopp needs to emphasize more for Nunez because this is their last hope.
Nunez until now has not shown good signs of scoring goals but this is the only way for them because after all Nunez is the last pedestal for Liverpool at the moment.

Klopp has successfully implemented several strategies to play even without Salah Liverpool's last match was the proof when Liverpool beat Arsenal at home when more people think Arsenal will win but what happens is the opposite so overall playing without Salah is not always worrying. Besides, Salah will not last long with Liverpool it is predicted that he only has a chance for the next 2 seasons so Liverpool must adapt to play without Salah, sSo far from what I see other players have not been able to replace the role of Salah.

The own goal was a lucky goal. But the second goal was a goal made by their efforts. You can't claim Liverpool won the game because of the luck factor.  

The luck factor does exist – but Liverpool's victory will never happen just because they hope for luck without hard work. All the players worked hard to score goals and defend the defensive area - and boom, the chance came and the first goal changed everything for the better for us. It was a fantastic win - especially as we won away match.

Arsenal suffered - yes, that's what happened. We also suffered in the first half because Arsenal put a lot of pressure on the defense - but fortunately, everyone worked hard to prevent Arsenal from converting their chances into goals. I would like to say - it was a tense match for both team.

Arsenal's strength is already unable to match Liverpool, even Arsenal coach Arteta admits that Liverpool plays very well from his team.
Mikel Arteta also admitted he was frustrated with the situation experienced by Arsenal's attack. This Spanish man admitted that he did not have the best solution to the problem. Losing 2-0 to Liverpool puts Arsenal must be in 4th position with 40 points equal to Man City and it will make Arsenal drop to 5th position.
Liverpool still lead at the top of the standings with 45 points.

The solution in just to bring new players with much better performance or carry out major changes to all the player that Arsenal has.
I say this for the reason that since last season, Arsenal has always appeared inconsistent, in fact I sometimes feel like it very ridiculous,  sometimes Arsenal looks very strong but only in 3 or 4 matches, but after this they experienced very deep decline, almost surprising the whole world.
Last season it competed with Manchester city but in fact it  was also beaten by Manchester City and moved again.
Arteta as responsible coach must immediately find best solution before several other club immediately recover.

The victory over Arsenal indicates that Liverpool did not depend on Moh Salah, even though without him Liverpool were still able to give the best appearance that made Arsenal lose the place in the FA Cup. Liverpool managed to maintain its good performance, victory at the Emirates Stadium also gave an indication that they had no effect with the absence of Moh Salah who was defending Egypt in the African Cup.
They fought in the FA Cup, in this competition did not fight for the number of points because it implemented the knockout system.

It is good for Liverpool to win without Salah but in a next few weeks, they will have many difficulty without him. Even if they have Salah in the squad but if he can not play well and score goals, they already struggle to find goals and get winnings. It is fact in many matches of Liverpool and their coach, Klopp, said in an interview that he could not remember how many times Salah saved Liverpool. Only this statement from Klopp is enough for importance of Mohamed Salah with Liverpool.

They will have no way than try to get as maximum points as possible in coming matches without Salah. They will also have to pray for Salah to have a good tournament with his national team and return to Liverpool with a healthy, non injured body.

If we look more closely, it's not just Liverpool whose key players have temporarily left, Arsenal, Tottenham and Aston Villa have also sent players to strengthen their respective national teams. Luckily, Man City did not send any players on this mission, but we know that Halaand is suffering from an injury, which is also a loss for Pep front line. Despite all that, the competition for the top five in the standings will continue to be fierce, every manager can only pray that their players can return to the squad without injury.

On the other hand, Liverpool is now the favorite in almost all the competitions they participate in, even though previously Arsenal also had the same big opportunity, especially in leading the EPL standings. In the FA Cup itself, Arsenal put on an aggressive performance, but Liverpool won, which was difficult to accept because they were defeated in front of their own supporters. It looks like the Gunners fate has the potential to repeat itself like last season, it is very easy to lose momentum.

Liverpool and Arsenal must shift their focus to the EPL, in week 21 the Reds must again try to strengthen their position at the top of the standings, provided they beat Bournemouth. Meanwhile, the Gunners must forget the defeat they suffered in the FA Cup, and beating Crystal Palace might be a solace for fans. Actually, the best big match in my opinion is Man United versus Tottenham, of course I won't miss it.

Maybe because they only played against clubs that weren't too strong.

With the presence of Kevin de Bruyne Manchester City performance will surely improve a lot because it was because of the absence of Kelvin de Bruyne that made Manchester City performing a bit poor on the premier League that made them enter the fourth position on the table but however it seems they have started peaking form because after there wining they were able to move from were they are to the third position they are now, so perhaps considering there points difference Manchester City has a great chance of correcting there mistakes, perhaps all they need right now is consistent in there wining and they will become the premier League top one.

Salah we thought was the main player when they meet Arsenal,but Jorghen Klopp knows exactly what to do when ever they meet Arsenal.In the first game when the scoreline was a draw,Salah was their main reason why that game went on to be a draw because he was a constant threat to Zinchenko who is always unease whenever Salah comes to attack him.Arsenal needed a better defender to block him to avoid the goal Salah scored.And for this resent game,Arsenal were the best team,but they lacked that finishing touch that could get the goals.All their front stars were unable to get a goal in that game,and that was why Liverpool punished them when they had the chance to score.

If we talk about Mohamed Salah role in Liverpool, I think Mohamed Salah has done a great work for Liverpool that will make the fans to live to remember Mohamed Salah for any day, any time because many people thought that Liverpool will not get it right in some competition in this season but Mohamed Salah and other strikers put more effort to ensure they beat some of the strongest teams they couldn't beat before last season.

If Liverpool could show improvement to win some games without Mohamed Salah, it show that they will put more strategies to ensure they win their remaining games not to allow any team to take the first position from them in the premier league competition

[piebeyb]

Manchester City and Arsenal seem to be the only threat; I don’t think Aston Villa will be able to match the strength of these 3 clubs to go for the title. so Liverpool must remain consistent to be on the watch for City and Arsenal. Well Arsenal doesn't really pull a threat but City would be coming out with full force in this 2nd half of the season.

Manchester City will always be a more serious threat than others, especially Arsenal, the changes that Manchester City is currently experiencing are quite better than before, now they are back on the winning track which makes them continue to get closer to Liverpool at the top of the standings, Aston Villa are also not competitors which in my opinion is very dangerous because they could be inconsistent at the end of the season.

The return of key players in Manchester City who are injured is certainly a threat to other clubs because they can perform better than before, where Manchester City in the previous few matches had very bad results, Guardiola moved calmly and he was very genius at reviving the enthusiasm of the players in the main squad to continue to win in every match. I believe that if Liverpool makes a mistake at the end of the season, of course Manchester City will win the title again like they did last season.

If Haaland can't play, they can actually apply the strategy where they haven't brought Haaland, which is to play without a pure striker or play with a false nine, but it's not easy because they also need to familiarize themselves with that strategy again.
But in my opinion it is not a big problem as long as KDB is in the squad again, because for me the life of the Manchester City game is in the role of KDB. This was very pronounced when Manchester City played without KDB. Usually when a team loses a striker but they have a player with the ability to read the game well, they will be able to play well too. The loss will be felt, but not that much.

You might forget that Pep Guardiola can still carry out the same strategy even if Haaland is injured. Julian Alvarez is the second striker who can also play as a center forward. Pep Guardiola has played Alvarez in that position 4 times this season and as a result Alvarez scored 2 goals and 1 assist. That's not bad at all, but Haaland is a center forward who is highly anticipated to return.

With the return of Doku and Kevin De Bruyne to the squad, Manchester City's strength and the possibility of winning in each match will be even better. Kevin De Bruyne is the motor of attack for Manchester City, while Doku is a player who can trouble the opponent's defense on the left side. Phil Foden has also been good this season, he is also often a player who can change the game with his assists and goals.

[Mr.right85]

Mo Salah wants to help his country perform well in the African Cup of Nations, and he will be looking forward to winning the African Cup of Nations this year. Mo Salah's absence will make Liverpool find it difficult to win their matches because there will not be a player like Salah who will be scoring so many goals for Liverpool.

Everyone will see whether Liverpool's performance really gets worse without Mohamed Salah, because currently Liverpool should still be considered a fairly strong team in the Premier League. So that makes their current rivals continue to improve their respective lines of players well enough to be able to catch Liverpool in the upcoming match this week. But this week I think Liverpool will still win because their opponent is not the strongest rival here.

Mo Salah absence will definitely affect this Liverpool side. We saw their game against Arsenal and it was evident that there was no real threat in the attack. I think navigating life without him might be something Liverpool will have to get accustomed to if they are serious about winning the EPL this season. Klopp is an experienced manager. I trust him to handle the situation very well. Liverpool have different options that can play there; Elliott, Gakpo, and Diogo Jota. They can also change their system to something that other players can adapt to in the meantime.

I think we have seen Liverpool win many games in the absence of both Mane and Salah in last years African cup of nations. Klopp is definitely going to be creative to get the results he wants in his absence.

[Leviathan.007]

Gabriel Jesus the player of Arsenal lost the game they had against Liverpool and even after losing the game against Liverpool but the fans of Liverpool are worried about this player because not having Gabriel Jesus in the other next games can definitely damage the team but it seems this palyer is totally fine and he even paly for his team in the next games because he was not hardly injured and they didn't use this palyer just to be safe in the game against Liverpool.

Jurgen Klopp is not an amateur coach, so it will not be a difficult task for him to figure out how to pilot his team for a few weeks without Muhammad Salah. In every club this is what the coaches always plan for because it must surely happen. Imagine clubs like Napoli is going to miss Victor, West ham is going to miss Muhammad kudus and lots more.

Also going through the lane of history you will understand that this is not the first time that Liverpool was faced with the case of absenteeism of Muhammad Salah. There was actually when both Salah and sadio mané left the club for the African cup of Nations and yet the club did not die. I know that the absence of Liverpool talisman will actually affect the club performance but there is always a way out even if it will not be 100% efficient.

[KTChampions]

Arsenal attack were not good but now suddenly they are on decline which is surely hurting them badly with they need to fix this quickly if they want to have better results in remaining season with now we are heading for the toughest time of season and all top teams are doing their best Jürgen Klopp is surely one of the best man on duty and learning from his mistakes his attack and defense both are doing their best which is helping them to have good success, and now they are in four competitions with chances they can win trophies as much they can with their current level of performance.
~

Arsenal is fine with the attack - according to the expected goals metric, they are always good, there may be a few games where this did not translate into real goals, it’s just a bad streak. Arsenal have two easy games ahead before the meeting with Liverpool and I think they will have time to improve their affairs and self-confidence. It’s a pity that because of the African Cup, many games will be played with suboptimal lineups and the results may be quite unexpected.

[Weawant]

Even with or without Salah I knew Arsenal can't win the match cause the team lacks the effort to push through, I don't know what's happening to the structure of the team cause during the early season Arsenal was not like this and it seems they'll continue playing like this each match day, Arteta should change the key starters if he really want the team to push forward this season, and seeing the premier league season now Manchester city and Liverpool will definitely kick Arsenal out from the game if they're not careful and now Bruyne is back so we might likely expect more from Manchester city.

The return of bruyne has a very significant impact on Manchester city as his absence has greatly been felt, even if the team has been doing well without him, there's still a good difference in their performance when he's around and so now that he's back along side Haland, I'm optimistic about their performance both in the UCL and the premier league.

The only factor that may affect the performance of bruyne is the fact that he will now be injury prone and will have to be careful not to sustaining another injury before the season ends . Arsenal is on a decline recently and personally I can really tell what's the problem because there have been no significant case of injury or any key player moving away from the team so it's really not easy to ascertain what exactly is the cause of the decline they are currently experiencing and very likely it may coat them the league because Liverpool and Manchester city are becoming even better and liable to winning the trophy.

[Cryptomultiplier]

If not for the African cup coming up, many of the stars like Mo Salah wouldn't have been absent. He is one of the top goal scorers for Liverpool right now and his input in any match I'd always phenomenal. We can see that during their last match against Arsenal.
It is just inevitable for him to be absent in the national side, else,  am sure he would retire from international football and focus more on club football if he wants to remain a dominant force for Liverpool.

[Mayor of ogba]

Haaland's injury seems to be making Man City difficult. Since losing against Aston Villa, Haaland has not appeared. This makes Man City weak, and if it doesn't improve soon it might make it difficult for Man City to compete in the UCL or in the EPL. Man city has not found a player who can replace Haaland at this time. Although indeed in several matches Man City always won after Haaland was injured against Aston Villa.

Yes, you are right about this, Manchester City did seem to struggle when Haaland was injured. Man City's dull front line seems to remind Haaland of his important role, because without Haaland the team feels like it has lost its life if there are no key players. It looks like Pep Guardiola has to get used to it and look for a replacement for Haaland for a while, to stay focused and consistent when Manchester City's key player suffers an injury like this, so that the team's performance in the future still looks good and of high quality. That way, I'm sure they can definitely win the match in the next UCL and EPL matches.

If Haaland can't play, they can actually apply the strategy where they haven't brought Haaland, which is to play without a pure striker or play with a false nine, but it's not easy because they also need to familiarize themselves with that strategy again.
But in my opinion it is not a big problem as long as KDB is in the squad again, because for me the life of the Manchester City game is in the role of KDB. This was very pronounced when Manchester City played without KDB. Usually when a team loses a striker but they have a player with the ability to read the game well, they will be able to play well too. The loss will be felt, but not that much.

I agree with you, such a thing happened last season when Manchester City played against Arsenal, it was Kevin De Bruyne who scored 2 goals against Arsenal, and it was in the dying minutes that Haaland scored one goal for Manchester City.

[hahay]

Currently, De Bruyne has returned and immediately made a big contribution in last match against Huddersfield in the FA CUP by making 1 assist. And in that match Man City was able to win with a very big score, namely 5-0. In this match, there was visible development and increased sharpness in Man City's attacks. Maybe because they only played against clubs that weren't too strong.

With the presence of Kevin de Bruyne Manchester City performance will surely improve a lot because it was because of the absence of Kelvin de Bruyne that made Manchester City performing a bit poor on the premier League that made them enter the fourth position on the table but however it seems they have started peaking form because after there wining they were able to move from were they are to the third position they are now, so perhaps considering there points difference Manchester City has a great chance of correcting there mistakes, perhaps all they need right now is consistent in there wining and they will become the premier League top one.

In essence, the competition for the title will return only about Liverpool and Manchester City because ya, of course Manchester City will be able to improve its performance for the better with De Bruyne return from a long injury. But for the next Premier League match, in fact Manchester City will play away against Newcastle. With the opposition likely remaining a strong opponent then ya, it still looks like De Bruyne will not play the full 90 minutes because of course, a slow process is still needed so that De Bruyne no longer suffers injuries.
