Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Raflesia]

Truly Arsenal would be happier with the outcome of today's match which ended in a draw against Man City in Etihad stadium where they had never won a match since 2015 and always well beaten though they would prefer a win to increase their chances of winning the League having surrendered the top of the table to Liverpool who earlier won their match, though there are about nine matches to the end of the league I believe it's not yet over for all three major title contenders untill the last day of the league before the eventual winner would emerge thus there is no room for any complacency by any of those teams.

Because in the end Etihad is also not a friendly enough place but looking at their statistics in the last few meetings actually Etihad also for the last 2 meetings (with this match) means that Arsenal have broken the losing record because the match always ends in a draw and at the Emirates even they can previously win with a thin score against Manchester City which shows that Arteta's performance at Arsenal is growing as the season progresses.

The match is completely owned by Manchester City in this match but Arsenal at least keep the result to keep this point for them which I think this is a pretty good situation.
But if we look at the whole season, the most profitable is of course Liverpool, because with the results that Arsenal and Manchester City have in this match, they again take the throne at the top of the standings for a while even though the points can still be caught up but of course it's still very good for Klopp's men.

The most competitive match between Manchester City and Arsenal, with 74 minutes yet to be scored by either team. These two teams are so strong and the goalkeepers are so experienced that they are unable to attack and score goals. Their attacks are very strong so far Manchester City have been on the attack but have not been able to score any goals. But it is uncertain which of these two teams will win until the end of our game. But based on the attack I can say that Manchester City have a lot of chances in this match.

Liverpool can smile broadly for the time being. The draw between Man City and Arsenal paved the way for Liverpool to return to first place. Man City actually dominated the match, but unfortunately, they had difficulty breaking down Arsenal's defense. The defensive football strategy played by Arsenal looks quite effective. The fight for the title is getting more and more tense, and I think with 3 points gap and the 9 remaining matches that still have to be played, these three teams still have an equally strong chance.

After week 28 the advantage belongs to Arsenal then indeed now the advantage is in the hands of Liverpool because after all, whatever results Arsenal and Manchester City have in the end benefit them and even if Arsenal and Manchester City get 1 point but Liverpool still smile because with the 3 points they get when facing Brighton at Anfield it has made them return to the top position.

The difference is still not too far because currently they are only 2 points adrift of Arsenal and 3 points from Manchester City but in the end it is still enough to make them breathe a little easier for this season even though they still have to fight in the remaining 8 matches.
There are still some matches that are quite difficult for Liverpool in the rest of the season so as much as possible they must maintain the consistency they have so that the top of the standings does not change easily.

The draw obtained by Manchester City vs Arsenal today is obviously very beneficial for Liverpool, because in the previous match Liverpool managed to win over Brighton at Anfield so that it made a distance of 2 points from Arsenal and 3 points from Manchester City at this time, honestly the match between Manchester City and Arsenal was beyond the expectations of all of us who expect an exciting match like two big teams who play and present a lot of goals,  But it turned out that since the first half started, Manchester City immediately dominated the game and Arsenal players only tried to defend with counterattack which was mostly not dangerous at all in my opinion except for what Trossard did in the second half.

Both teams seemed to play quite carefully in the game although Manchester City often pressed into Arsenal's defense, but Arsenal's solid defense actually made Manchester City's attack useless, I saw Arsenal's game today was not as good as usual in terms of attacking and even they often made mistakes in passing the ball, but fortunately in addition to having a solid layered defense of course Manchester City attackers who are also Performing less optimally in the match made arsenal goal not concede.

Here Arsenal's character is clearly visible. They are afraid to get out of their comfort zone and tend to persist and waste time, even though they could do better. Manchester City were a mess, it wasn't a great game to see from them and overall it wasn't the big game I was hoping for.

I know Pep Guardiola lost some of his best players in this match, but the strategy he implemented in this match did not produce good results at all. The match didn't end according to plan, it was a disappointment that had to be paid dearly considering that Manchester City really dominated the match from the first half until the end of the match.

Manchester city Vs Arsenal Draw match

Actually I failed this prediction. Right from beginning I have maintained that the match between Manchester City and Arsenal will never end in draw. I was very confident that one team will win and there will be goals in the match but unfortunately my prediction didn't work out. Although I did not watch the match. It is a match that everybody looked up to but a very big international convention that I had made me to miss the match. Just this night I had a little time to check up the internet and I was surprised that the both teams shared the points. This only has just given Liverpool and added advantage to make them day champions of the English Premier League. I believe this is a gesture that the Liverpool coach will utilize to crown his exit from the Liverpool football club. 3 points above Manchester city and 2 points above Arsenal is giving the impression that Liverpool can be the champions or anyone among Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester city can be.

~snip~
Brentford players made a total of 31 shots in this match. A lot of attacking Brentford players. On the other hand, the players of Manchester United were able to make only 11 shots in total.

The draw makes it even harder for them to shift Tottenham. Currently their point difference is 8 points. It seems quite far with 9 matches remaining. Besides that, Man United will meet a strong team. This makes it difficult for them to get points to enter the European Zone. Indeed Brentford shot a lot, but they were ineffective. Man United's shots on target are the same as Brentford. Ball control is also not much different. I don't think this draw is too bad.

[baeva]

I knew that Manchester city was never going to allow Arsenal get a win against them especially an easy win in their home, the ethihad is Manchester city strong hood and they have been able to maintain a good results in their home since this season and a would not want to loose against the gunners a second time so I expected they were most likely going to draw but I didn't hope it was going to be a goalless draw .

The Gunners in their capacity actually did very well too and they made their defense a fortified one such that they weren't jus penetrable by the hosting team just like that, I knew Arsenal was definitely not going to aswell give Manchester city an easy games too but then I must commend Manchester city the most in that they weren't playing with some key players and yet they were able to keep a clean sheet not allowing a defeat especially in their home in the presence of their own fans, it was a very good performance from them too, but they are now at the third position on the table.

Liverpool is back to the top of the table and I see it as some that is really worth it because they actually did performed so well in their today's encounter a d did deserved the win they got in today's game and I knew Liverpool was not going to mess up this opportunity of getting back to the top of the table but then they are just going to stay at the top by just two points difference away from Arsenal who's at the second.

Yes, there is not much left to the end of the season and I think Manchester City are out of the title race because neither Arsenal nor Liverpool will allow themselves to make a mistake and will fight amongst themselves. As for the Manchester City vs Arsenal match, it was pretty boring, I didn't expect the match to end in a rout but MC had 72% possession of the ball which is huge but in the end they couldn't score, lol....

[coinlocket$]

Liverpool managed to beat DeZerbi, Manchester City at the same time failed to beat Arsenal.

Difficult moment for Guardiola who drops to -3 in the standings behind Klopp's team, while the Gunners find themselves two points behind after the draw
The title race is certainly the most exciting of the last decade in the Premier League even if tonight's match was very, very boring.

Just like you, I don't think the match will end in a draw because Manchester City is really the favorite at home. Unfortunately, Manchester City missed several good opportunities in the match to equal Liverpool on points, but that was the consequence they had to accept when Arsenal forced them to play defensively.

This match was very different because Arsenal played almost exactly the same as a mediocre team who only defended and took advantage of counter attacks. Look at their ball possession percentage throughout the match, it's not a typical game from a team with a winning mentality. Indeed, 1 point is better than getting nothing, but instead we can judge who Arsenal really are.

There are nine matches left. And there's still a chance for Manchester City or Arsenal to unseat Liverpool and win the Premier League title.
As things stand, Liverpool has two(Arsenal) and three points(Manchester City) to top both teams. However, the title could still go to the current second or third-place contestants due to there is no way we could learn that the top three teams(Liverpool, Arsenal, and Manchester City) would not lose or draw any of their remaining games before the season ended, giving the other teams the advantage to surpass each other in the standings.

All eyes are on the top teams as they take on the rest of their 9 remaining matches to win it all. The expectations to win all are now placed on them as the league matches become tense and interesting on which club would be winning the rest of their matches or not.

[Issa56]

There are not many oportunities in the match with more chances for Manchester City but Haaland and Doku could not score any goal for them. On the opposite side, Arsenal did focus on defense in this match and successfully went home with one point that is their target.

I never expected Arsenal to play a defensive game in the match, I was thinking they were going for a win in the match, but the way they played, it’s obvious that all what they went for in the match was a draw, because if they wanted a win, they won’t have played the pattern which they played today. Manchester city played well in the match, they dominated the match in both the first half and second half of the match, but they couldn’t score any goal, since Arsenal were playing a defensive game in the match, Manchester City couldn’t break their defense.

This result is more happy ending for Arsenal than for Manchester City based on their approaches during the match while generally Liverpool are most happy team this week. They return to the first position and leave both Arsenal and Manchester City behind.

Liverpool wanted the match to end as draw, or Manchester City to win so that they will be able to take over the first position from Arsenal, but they are lucky today’s match ended as draw, they are back to first position, and Liverpool will do everything possible to maintain their current first position.

[Captain Corporate]

This definitely benefited Liverpool more than anyone, but those type of things could change very quickly, like how a week before this one (the last league game) Liverpool tied with City which benefited Arsenal, now they are not there. Every week is a tough one for these teams and I have to say its not going to be easy at all. We need to figure out how to make that work, and I believe its not going to be all that easy at all to win all these games. We are going to see these teams eventually lose, maybe all three would lose points at some point, but even if not all three, some of them will definitely lose points somewhere. That will be the deciding factor on the league.

[AprilioMP]

Yes, despite City's dominance in terms of possession after the first half, we can sum it up: Ake had one chance against Jesus' two chances. But the score is still 0-0 and although I see from the live quotes that the draw quotes are growing, it seems too early to think that this is a priority option for the development of events, I don’t think that a draw will suit both teams (especially City) given that Liverpool won their game. I don’t know if City will be able to sharpen the game since Arsenal defends very confidently, but one goal is enough for the balance to be broken and if City scores first, then Arsenal will be forced to change tactics.

When I felt that a draw was the safest bet for the match of these two top teams, I was trying to strengthen the analysis of the fear of my other thoughts that said I would lose the bet if I put a draw bet. The result I won with my analysis.
Now we must believe that competition in winning the title is getting tougher due to the results that occurred this week for three competing teams.

Liverpool won made them above with a difference of 2 points over Arsenal below them because they were only able to share points in the match against Manchester City. I did not mention the tactics applied by Arsenal and Manchester City. For me, Arsenal got a draw at the Etihad Stadium as a result that did not harm both.
Liverpool won because the team he defeated was not a favorite team.

It is better to use any strategy that will not make you vulnerable to losing the match, and drop point. This was the only tactics that Arteta believes he can use to draw Manchester city. It is good that you know how to play your opponent to avoid defeat.

Manchester City should have shown themselves how quality they are, and pass through Arsenal's walls to find the back of the net. I will say that it was a fair game, and nothing more. Those people that bet on Manchester city to win the game have been disappointed, this is why football is unpredictable.

Yes, I admit that's true. Every team that loses points will benefit the other team, especially because all three currently have the same chance of winning the title. Liverpool leads 3 points over Manchester City, while they have a gap of 2 points over Arsenal. This is still very exciting to expect because there are still several tough matches waiting for the three of them on the schedule for the remainder of this season.

Each of them will fight to win as many points as possible and they will avoid mistakes in each match. Obviously this season is very interesting because there are 3 teams that have a good chance of winning the title instead of just Manchester City. Pep Guardiola still hopes to defend the title, but he admits it is a difficult job.

Pep Guardiola was aware of that from the first half, but the players failed to make many good efforts throughout the match. Arsenal has 5 to 6 players in the defensive area and that has made Manchester City players depressed to create chances, so it is clearly a loss for Manchester City.

[hyudien]

This result is more happy ending for Arsenal than for Manchester City based on their approaches during the match while generally Liverpool are most happy team this week. They return to the first position and leave both Arsenal and Manchester City behind.

Liverpool wanted the match to end as draw, or Manchester City to win so that they will be able to take over the first position from Arsenal, but they are lucky today’s match ended as draw, they are back to first position, and Liverpool will do everything possible to maintain their current first position.

What is clear in this case is that Liverpool has the advantage, while Man City and Arsenal both seem unable to do much other than having to take 1 point. For the time being at the top of the standings, Klopp will definitely continue to maintain it to the maximum, because if Liverpool drops again it will be difficult to take that position. These 3 clubs have played 29 matches, Liverpool just needs to be consistent in the next match because Man City and Arsenal will be busy in the UCL with quite tough opponents, especially Arsenal. However, after hearing the news that Bayern Munich failed in the Bundesliga, it means that Bayern Munich ambitions are completely focused on the UCL and there is no other opportunity but to risk everything.

Liverpool will meet Man United again in the 31st match and this could be quite an interesting revenge event because in the previous match Liverpool had to lose with a score of 4-3 in the FA Cup. This match will be different and could benefit Jurgen Klopp, because Man United condition is unstable again.

[Obim34]

In the first half, Liverpool managed to catch up after Welbeck scored a goal in the early minutes and in my opinion in this first half the intensity of the game was quite balanced and both teams were equally able to put pressure on the opponent defense. Even though Liverpool are still statistically superior, Brighton also continues to play solidly. For the second half, Liverpool will definitely be more aggressive considering that the target of 3 points must be achieved because the next big match between Man City and Arsenal will affect the standings table. Therefore, if Brighton game tension decreases then Liverpool chances of scoring a goal are very big. Nunez progress was not very visible in this match, but in the second half he and Moh Salah should have scored goals.

Liverpool winning 2-1 due to Salah goal is actually what was required from the team by the fans, and now Liverpool is topping the table after the big clash between Arsenal and Mancity which ended in a draw.  I don't know how easy it maybe to just understand the possibilities of Liverpool lifting this trophy, if not Liverpool then likely Arsenal but Mancity seems not getting close to it. From the look of things Liverpool won't be accepting any defeat since they are back to number one on the table, they would not likely want to drop below and I see their performance are impressive enough to make them championship at last.

Liverpool managed to beat DeZerbi, Manchester City at the same time failed to beat Arsenal.

Difficult moment for Guardiola who drops to -3 in the standings behind Klopp's team, while the Gunners find themselves two points behind after the draw
The title race is certainly the most exciting of the last decade in the Premier League even if tonight's match was very, very boring.

A very difficult moment for the whole team Mancity, this season did not favor them even tho the champions are yet to be made but doesn't seems City has the upper hand, they lack from both sides, points and aswell goal difference. The race is tough, a survival of the fittest.

[SOKO-DEKE]

There are not many oportunities in the match with more chances for Manchester City but Haaland and Doku could not score any goal for them. On the opposite side, Arsenal did focus on defense in this match and successfully went home with one point that is their target.

From your observation, it was defensive tactics Arsenal used in today's match, but as for me, I did not observe that Arsenal was playing defensively. The truth is that Manchester City was just controlling the pitch and trying to put pressure on Arsenal, so the best thing Arsenal did was not try to stop them from having chances to enter their box, because they know if Manchester City have many chances to enter their box, they will definitely score.And the reason why many people think it was a defensive pattern Arsenal played to was because Arsenal attacks were weak because Saka was not that fit and Gabriel was really good in that position. We can see that when Martinelli sub in, the pressure was not more on Arsenal, and it cleared that it was not defensive tactics arsenal was using.

This result is more happy ending for Arsenal than for Manchester City based on their approaches during the match while generally Liverpool are most happy team this week. They return to the first position and leave both Arsenal and Manchester City behind.

Liverpool will be the happiest team because this Manchester City draw against Arsenal has given Liverpool more opportunities to win this season's Premier League. Liverpool is now two points ahead of Arsenal and three points ahead of Manchester City. With these two points, Liverpool fans minds will be at rest rather than Arsenal or Manchester City topping the table. Let's see what happens in their next few matches before the team ends. Liverpool have Manchester United to play next, I think.

Those people that bet on Manchester city to win the game have been disappointed, this is why football is unpredictable.

This was totally a draw match prediction from me. When I saw the line up and how Arsenal started the first half i noticed that he had the intention of playing more defensively than attacking. And I was surprised that Arsenal could pull such a defensive wall against the almighty Manchester City. It was so difficult for Foden, Grealish, DeBruyne, Silva and Haaland to pull of those magical play that brings about a goal in Arsenal half. Now I believe that it is not all about the possession. It's about how the game end. Arteta was like take the ball, bring it to us and take the ball again.

Truly, a lot of people were surprised today because they did not expect that the match will end in a goalless draw. There were several predictions like a 1:1 draw. 1:0 and 0:1 but at the end it was an eye glass. Any football gambler would agree with me that anyone who include Manchester City vs Arsenal in their betting slip today has lost. Unless it was predicted a draw which many failed to choose because they feel Manchester City would win the match.

[TelolettOm]

You know, I read a lot of comments about Chelsea only being able to draw against clubs in the relegation zone. How angry their fans were, disappointment and anger became one. So, it didn't take long for many criticisms and insults to be directed at Chelsea.

A pathetic squad is owned by chelsea. I'm still curious what drives those Chelsea players to become professional players since they don't have something good as players and they are very incompetent. They are a complete failure and they cannot even perform proper shoots as it can be seen many times how chelsea players wasted the chance by shooting the bird. Mudryk has been performing inaccurate shots four to five times, and none of these shots have been on target and yeah that's shit. Enzo Fernandez is only good at passing, but this guy is terrible at shooting following what mudryk did in the game.
------------....

This might be a little ridiculous, but really, I agree with what you're saying. They are not only incompetent as individual players, but also as a team. They don't seem solid and just play as they are. And somehow, I really don't understand why Pochettino can put up with this. However, coaches are also responsible for their squad, but it seems that Chelsea still continues to defend it too. If this continues, Chelsea's decline will continue until later and later. Maybe Chelsea is starting to feel comfortable with this condition.

Liverpool winning 2-1 due to Salah goal is actually what was required from the team by the fans, and now Liverpool is topping the table after the big clash between Arsenal and Mancity which ended in a draw. 

Really.
The draw results between Man City vs Arsenal really provide a satisfactory fit for Liverpool. At least this is what happened after the 30th match took place, the position immediately changed, who was at the top of the standings. Ultimately, Liverpool took it back.

Source: Man City vs Arsenal

So it's just a matter of how they can maintain this position as much as possible until the season ends or not. Because there are still several matches that will be quite troublesome in the future, even though they won't be big matches again. However, the competition will continue, because the distance between the three points is still quite small.

[Roseline492]

Liverpool managed to beat DeZerbi, Manchester City at the same time failed to beat Arsenal.

Difficult moment for Guardiola who drops to -3 in the standings behind Klopp's team, while the Gunners find themselves two points behind after the draw
The title race is certainly the most exciting of the last decade in the Premier League even if tonight's match was very, very boring.

Indeed it was a difficult moment for Pep Guardiola because he never expected the match to end this way because they have more experience player than Arsenal and Manchester City dominated the first half with a very good ball possession against arsenal because at the first half arsenal was not that too good but the moment they came back from the second half there performance improve and the match became more tougher, although Liverpool is actually the one that benefited this draw the more because right now there points different is a bit higher than arsenal and Manchester City and with the look of things it will be very difficult for Manchester city to compete with Liverpool.
