Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Amphenomenon]

As I said before, in Tan Hag's last match with Manchester United against Newcastle, Ten Hag would give a good game and result in front of his supporters and managed to beat Newcastle with a narrow score of 3-2.
Newcastle also played very well and dominated the game but Manchester United was no less good because both teams attacked each other which made the match exciting. However, unfortunately Manchester United's victory was not able to shift Newcastle's position and they have the same points and only goal difference.

The table is now leveled after all the teams are in the same page after today’s match. We can now see the real positions of each team with one match left for them all to played this coming Sunday. Those that needs to win can start their permutations from now, those that already know their positions they’ll be ending the league with won’t be that frightened with what the result of match day 38 will be.

I see this match as Manchester United taking their chances better than Newcastle, now what matters to both teams is who will finish 6th or 7th, while Manchester United still have the more difficult opponent than Newcastle in their last match this season which is Brighton while Newcastle Brentford.

I am more concerned about Chelsea, they’ve really cleared my doubts to some extent because how they started the league and also their position in the mid season made me lost hope in them to not finish in the top half of the table. After today’s match, Chelsea are now on sixth position and could get a qualification to the Europa League next season. They’ve come a long way and they deserve to have a spot there for next season. I can’t wait to see how they’ll perform next season, with the likes of top players like Cole Palmer who have been very impressive recently.

Regarding Chelsea, actually I won't comment until the end of this season which will be against Bournemouth which will not be an easy team to face but I believe if Chelsea play well they will get a win or at least a draw and qualify for Europa League.  I'm a Chelsea fan but base on the too much inconsistency we have seen with Chelsea this season I don't want to put high hope on them. Though if they can't make it to Europa League then Poch should be remove

Who would have taught the matched between Manchester United and Newcastle who have ended with a 3:20 score and goals over 5 goals. It ended with a 1:0 in the first half but it seems they were waiting for the second half so that they can unleash their power. Today ended well in the favor of the Manchester United fans, i know the pain of losing in three consecutive games and had a first victory this month;. However there has been a transform a little bit in the way Manchester United play.

I expected them to win today since they played very well during their last match against Arsenal. Meanwhile talking about the games against Arsenal that would have been a win for Man U as well but they failed to utilize their chances.

Manchester United showed some powerful skills today as a team by winning against Newcastle. I think they are designed to win over less competitive teams like the Arsenal and Manchester City this season. With the pattern that Manchester United is playing their games, I doubt if they will be able to win over Manchester City in their upcoming game. I am scared for Arsenal right now since the only hope they have of winning this season of tournament is through the victory of Manchester United over Manchester City which seems to be daunting.

As I said before, in Tan Hag's last match with Manchester United against Newcastle, Ten Hag would give a good game and result in front of his supporters and managed to beat Newcastle with a narrow score of 3-2.
Newcastle also played very well and dominated the game but Manchester United was no less good because both teams attacked each other which made the match exciting. However, unfortunately Manchester United's victory was not able to shift Newcastle's position and they have the same points and only goal difference.

The expected victory came true, Manchester United won with a score of 3-2 today. I am happy with this final result even though Manchester United is actually still stuck in 8th position with the same points as Newcastle. Earning points doesn't mean much to Manchester United because after all this won't allow them to qualify for the European zone again.

Winning matches is of course still important for Ten Hag, especially since he still really wants to increase his points per match score during his career at Manchester United. Ten Hag has experimented with everything he has so far, but his team's performance this season has left much to be desired. Manchester United was only able to win 17 matches, draw 6 and lose 14 in 37 matches, clearly worse than last season with 23 wins, 6 draws and 9 losses.

No clue whether this win was expected. From my perception I think it wasn't really and the majority was leaning towards at least a point for Newcastle United. But it is the up and down that keeps ten Hag from getting sacked. He can lose against some weaker team and then next weak he beats a team that is of similar strength or even better. He probably doesn't even know himself how to solve that riddle and finally get some consistency into the game. It remains weird to this day. But it looks like they don't have a chance to qualify for any of the international competitions unless they beat Manchester City in the FA Cup.

Chelsea’s performance towards the end of this season is very superb, they are very serious towards the end of the season and they are above Manchester United trying their possible best to see if they can make it to the Europa League. I am very impressed and surprised by Chelsea’s performance because they are now in the sixth position in the premier league table above Manchester United and they will likely play the Europa League next season while Manchester United will hardly play the Europ.

True. Chelsea performance looks impressive, they won every single match currently. If they could continue this good performance in the next season, they will have a chance to return to the top 5 again. For this season, they must be satisfied to finish in the 6th place. They are unable to finish in the top 5 because Tottenham must win the final match against Sheffield United. It is the weakest team in EPL, Tottenham will secure their position in 5th place. So, in theory, Chelsea probably ends up in the 6th place. However, it is cool because they can finish above Man United.  

Regarding the match against Brighton today, Chelsea could take another 3 points. They succeed to beat Brighton although they play away. It seems Chelsea really wants to finish this season with the maximum points. They will stay in 6h place if they can win again in the next match.

He has been the heart and power engine to the success of this Chelsea short view of light they are experiencing now because the whole road for this team wasn't an easy one and everything seems to be actually working for them now thanks to palmer and his full contribution and activeness in their gameplay. On a regular past Chelsea playing Brighton, I think the current score would have been something else but now they are the one's leading and even playing good football too.

In light of this progression, supporters of Chelsea must feel positive and pleased. The achievement is in maintaining consistency and if they keep up such performance there is no question that they will be able to keep control on the field and take victory home more often in days ahead. Keep showing support for Chelsea, their path still winds far before interesting challenges end, we have plenty yet to hear about!

As it is now, Chelsea fans can go watching a game without expecting any disappointment, so long as Chelsea isn’t playing Manchester City or Arsenal of course. They’ve come to that standard where they have expectations on them and have those expectations delivered to them, you would support such team, surely.

Something I didn’t understand quite well in todays game though, why was N. Jackson’s goal disallowed again? I could t fully understand it or I just chose not to accept it. That wasn’t any serious push to have any significance. This wasn’t a goalkeeper, that needs much protection, the touch was soft.

The way Chelsea is moving, I'm afraid for Tottenham that if they don't win there next match and Chelsea win, they will have the same point but the interesting thing here is that Chelsea actually has more goal difference than Tottenham spur and that will give them automatic qualifications to Europa League than the Europa champions league they will be going to if they finish here.

Haaland was given a penalty kick yesterday which gave him another hedge against Cole Palmer, I wish Haaland didn't go far. Palmer has tried this season and deserves it in term of hard work than what Haaland has done this season but anyways, it's not easy competiting against your former team most especially if it's against the manager that coach you for many months, you can't outsmart Guardiola just like that and go scot free.

Chelsea picked form lately,and their form will see them win all their remaining games for the season.It is just one game remaining anyways,but their performance have really impressed me.It isn't easy to win Briton away.
Pochetino didn't know how to manage these players,if not,they have good players in that team,and it is left for him to maximise their talent,and build confidence in them so they can start winning games comes next season.
Cole Parmer has been superb,and I think they will give him the best young players award this season,while Haaland will win the highest goals scorer,and Foden will be premier league best player this season.

Even though it is too late for Chelsea to create consistency, at least now Pochettino fleet has the chance to finish in the European zone, if Tottenham loses the next match then Chelsea has the chance to finish in 5th place. Overall finishing in 6th place is very good for Chelsea. considering that last season the Blues were only able to finish in 12th place in the standings. Pochettino has slowly found the right rhythm to make the team performance more solid and stable.

Pochettino basically finds it difficult to bring Chelsea consistently because his squad is being hit by a storm of injuries, which has made it difficult for him to implement strategies to make Chelsea develop more quickly as expected. Meanwhile, the depth of the squad built by Pochettino is considered very young, so in many cases the Blues have difficulty competing with other elite teams, where sometimes Pochettino fleet often loses to mediocre teams.

Palmer has been Pochettino mainstay this season, he played very well in every match, and often scored goals to ensure Chelsea secured full points. Next season Chelsea will develop even better, Chelsea young players will become more mature, but I think winning trophies is still quite difficult to achieve. Pochettino must recruit quality strikers if he wants to compete to become a team challenging for the title.

[Stepstowealth]

Manchester United finally managed to return to winning ways after defeating Newcastle United in today match. In terms of play, of course Manchester United have not shown their impressive game because in today match because Newcastle United performed better than Manchester United.

Newcastle were generally better but I was impressed with the young players in Manchester United and the passion that they showed in the game. It is not surprising that they are the ones on the scoresheet, Mainoo, Diallo and Hojlund. Manchester United will actually be better if the coach is able to bring in the proper players and then sell players not needed in the club anymore for next season. It is a shame that they will not be in the champions league next season, they have to correct that.

[Lida93]

Chelsea has the opportunity to get a place in the conference league but Chelsea have to wait for Newcastle to lose or draw.

Chelsea have just finish the first half of the match, and they are already winning the match. Chelsea played well in the first half of the match, even though they could only score 1 goal in the first half, and I am still expecting them to score more goals in the second half of the match. Chelsea are already ahead of Newcastle because they are currently losing to Manchester United, so Chelsea has taken over Newcastle's position on the table. If Chelsea can maintain their current goal lead and Manchester United can also beat Newcastle in today’s match, then Chelsea should be qualifying for the conference league.

And now the match has entered the 83rd minute and the score remains ahead for Chelsea, namely 0-2. And now it looks like Chelsea will be able to move up to 6th place. Because Newcastle is also 1 goal behind because the score of the Man United vs Newcastle match is 2-1. And I think Pochettino is starting to show good results at Chelsea. If, for example, Chelsea finished in 6th place, that would be quite big progress for this team. because at the end of last season Chelsea only finished in 12th place. But this season, thanks to Pochettino, it looks like Chelsea can find hope again. Even though many doubted Pochettino, we can see the results now.

Yeah it seems  Chelsea is having a better ending of a season looking at how they moved from 11th position to now occupying the 6th position with 60 points.  They had won straight four game, an improved performance that Chelsea is making right now only illustrates that the players have started blending and also having a good flow of communication among themselves.  I think they are going to be a team to beat next season as they will definitely be competing in the top four  which is something most of us will want to see next EPL season.

A wonderful performance from Manchester united who managed to win their match today after several weeks.

Tonight Manchester united spirit was really high that they had to submerge Newcastle even to the advantage of their rival Chelsea who are at the brink of qualifying for the European league.

Honestly, Ten Hag needs to consider giving Amad  Diallo more chance as he had many times made so much impact in each game he olayed, the boy is always on fire in all games better than Anthony. I don't know if Manchester united fans has observed this too.

[Franctoshi]

Yeah it seems  Chelsea is having a better ending of a season looking at how they moved from 11th position to now occupying the 6th position with 60 points.  They had won straight four game, an improved performance that Chelsea is making right now only illustrates that the players have started blending and also having a good flow of communication among themselves.  I think they are going to be a team to beat next season as they will definitely be competing in the top four  which is something most of us will want to see next EPL season.

Obviously, when looking at how Chelsea football team started poorly this season, it would be hard for anyone to think that Chelsea would be finishing 6th and ahead of  Manchester united in league table, Well despite all the ugly performances this season, they won't be finishing in a very bad position at the end,  And I hope Pochettino will be able to fix up things with Chelsea come next season and bring back Chelsea to its glory we hope for.

[Balmain]

Manchester United showed what the team's talents can do by beating Newcastle United today. In the first goal they conceded to Newcastle United, they made a very simple mistake on the line and one player was completely wasted and United scored a straight goal. There was a goal that Casemiro scored from the line, and then Casemiro was very active today in the match. Eric Tan Hag seems to have found a new formula for Manchester United and I must say, it's working. It is necessary to open a separate parenthesis for the goals scored by Diallo. The future of the young player looks very bright.

[KTChampions]

The probability of victory over West Ham, according to bookmakers, is 1.11 - an almost guaranteed outcome.

I don't know how you are able to place "guaranteed outcome" in a discussion that involves gambling but from my end, gambling is entirely a thing of probability with nothing guaranteed. I have had funny experiences such as having my bet spoilt by the smallest odd in an accumulator. I have also seen see where a small odd like 1.05 lost to a small team playing them in their home and give 50+ odd. My experience has taught me to focus on a series of bets rather being confident of winning a particular bet.

The coefficient 1.11 corresponds to a 90% probability, I don’t understand what’s confusing you? If you are familiar with betting, you probably understand that with such a probability the result is practically guaranteed, and by the way, I also have experience of losing a bet with odds less than 1.1, but this does not change anything.

In general, I don’t see anything special in City’s results; it has been proven many times that money easily buys success in round-robin tournaments, which is why cheating clubs like City succeed in them.

I don't seem to know about the cheating side of Manchester City, perhaps they cheat by outspending other teams in terms of buying key players. No, this may not be the case, maybe you can clarify on how they are able to cheat at the glaring eyes of the VAR.

They violated the financial rules of UEFA and the Premier League, they literally cheated, it’s strange that you didn’t hear this. Maybe Google will help you first?

Thank God that in tournaments with a playoff stage their success is much less.

Ops seems you have forgotten that they are the defending champion of the UCL which I don't know if it qualifies as tournament playoff stage.

This is exactly what I'm talking about: with just one win in so many years and so many billions, City are literally Champions League losers.
You understand that there are such indicators as costs/results and expectations/results? City is a favorite of the Champions League every year (for many years in a row) but has won only once.
And if you consider that they were trampled by Real, then this is probably even more fun, since the dream was close, but it was not possible to reach it.

[Leviathan.007]

The performance of Casemiro in the game against Arsenal was too bad and we could never expect to see him playing like this. Casemiro was guilty of the goal Arsenal scored in this match because he made the worst mistakes he could ever have.
Casemiro was the key player for Manchester United in the last season and we can't forget Manchester United could have a good performance without using Casemiro. But this player is not in the good form at all and was disappointing for his team. Maybe you are right and it's the time for Casemiro to go.

Even though the process of scoring the goal was a mistake made by Casimero, I don't think it was entirely his fault. In fact, I see the Manchester United squad losing its best playing form at almost all levels, especially for other senior players. There are many problems occurring within the club, especially the absence of several lower players who are injured, which affects Manchester United's defense.

The good results they got last season were inseparable from Casimero's quite solid performance and that happened because the squad played much more consistently. But this season there were many declines that occurred so that Manchester United did not qualify for the European league and this period was also very bad for Manchester United because they had difficulty keeping up with opposing teams who were much weaker.

I don't want to blame Casemiro alone but rather on the strategy and crisis of the main players experienced by Manchester United. I certainly didn't really think that this season United would be thrown out of competition at the top and they would fail to compete in Europe next season.

Erik Ten Hag is the figure who must be responsible for the decline in the team's overall performance. Because of the inappropriate strategy he implemented, several potential players such as Casemiro had to experience a decline in performance. So the defeat against Arsenal cannot be denied because we also have to admit that Arsenal's game was also much better and very effective.

The future of Ten Hag at Manchester United is still totally unknown and we can't be sure whether he keep working with Manchester United in the next season or not. I'm sure many fans of Manchester United were disappointed about their coach and they wanted to see their coach getting fired from the team even during this season because of the bad performance he had so far but Manchester United decided to give him another chance and it seems they want to let him the chance to stay in the beat Manchester City and win the FA Cup.

[Yogee]

[...]
I see this match as Manchester United taking their chances better than Newcastle, now what matters to both teams is who will finish 6th or 7th,

Does it really matter which of them finishes 6th or 7th? The prize money between places is not really that significant to either team since they have rich owners. Or maybe you mean 7th or 8th? Man United have no chance finishing in 6th place even if Chelsea loses because of the goal difference.

[Marykeller]

It ended with a 1:0 in the first half but it seems they were waiting for the second half so that they can unleash their power.

Nobody. Manchester United has had many of us surprised with their unsurprised 3-2 win against Newcastle. It's like they want to wake up from their slumber(it's late though) after losing three consecutive matches that have denied them of qualifying for the Europa League next season, having Chelsea and Newcastle take their(5th or 6th) position.

A match to go, towards the end of the season. That will decide the fate of Newcastle and Manchester United for the 6th spot. Any of them that wins or loses their last match, loses their opportunity to qualify for Europa Conference League Qualification next season since both teams have the same 57 points(Newcastle above with goals difference).

[EL MOHA]

Newcastle were generally better but I was impressed with the young players in Manchester United and the passion that they showed in the game. It is not surprising that they are the ones on the scoresheet, Mainoo, Diallo and Hojlund. Manchester United will actually be better if the coach is able to bring in the proper players and then sell players not needed in the club anymore for next season. It is a shame that they will not be in the champions league next season, they have to correct that.

I think both teams matched each other’s momentum and none was better than any. My pick from the game is Newcastle or Manchester United might be on the brink of missing out on European football next season. Also Newcastle have a very strong squad and the players on the bench are not just average players but players that would start for any middle club team. With Newcastle scared of the financial fair play rules they would have to sell some of their key players. The first player that caught my attention is Isak. I don’t think Newcastle will be able to keep him and Guimares because of how good they are.

Obviously, when looking at how Chelsea football team started poorly this season, it would be hard for anyone to think that Chelsea would be finishing 6th and ahead of  Manchester united in league table, Well despite all the ugly performances this season, they won't be finishing in a very bad position at the end,  And I hope Pochettino will be able to fix up things with Chelsea come next season and bring back Chelsea to its glory we hope for.

The issue with Chelsea has long ago been converting their chances, they usually create more chances than their opponents but without a proper center forward who can’t score enough goals. Jackson might have scored many this season but should have be 10 plus more goals to his name this season. If not for their new signing Cole Palmer I don’t think they would still he going for the next European spot but their resilience will at least get them this arsenal

[Majestic-milf]

 The Red devils were able to secure an important win after being luckless for three games. Although they managed to get three points, I doubt they will be able to make it to the race for who will end up being in the Europa conference league next season as even though they won tonight, they still trail behind 7th placed Newcastle with equal 57 points.
 I will not say it's because Man UTD played very well that's why they got the three points but rather it was sheer luck and the seemingly lack of seriousness from the visiting Newcastle players because in terms of ball possession, they gave the hosts a hard time, asking questions in the half of their opponents but sadly could not utilize their chances.
I'm sure this is not how Erik ten Hag planned for the season to be like for him and the boys but at least this win can somehow alleviate a bit of the stress he's been under since the last three to four games.

[snipie]

Manchester United  vs Newcastle

Odds of Newcastle United to win this game in Old Trafford are slightly better than Manchester United!
With 5 points in the last five games, including 2 successive defeats, Ten Hag is required to alleviate the pressure of the fans and try to end 6th, otherwise they will not qualify for any European competitions next year.

Brighton vs Chelsea

In this game too, the home team seems to be less favourite. Brighton & Hove Albion aren't well this season and they will end in the middle of the table. For Chelsea, they have a chance to end sixth at best. Besides they are trying to prove that they improved to reassure their fans and the others about their future.

It will be very difficult for Manchester United because Newcastle are extremely motivated and want to take 3 points and get ahead of Chelsea in the table. After last season, Chelsea's 6th place looks very good, especially considering the competition at the top of the table. City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Aston Villa had a great season, almost without mistakes and only phenomenal performance of City and Arsenal separates them from Aston Villa and Liverpool, but in any case the championship was very competitive and even Newcastle and Tottenham can consider this year a success. Maybe only Tottenham fans are a bit disappointed that the club lost a lot of games in the end and did not qualify for the Champions League, but after the departure of Kane it seemed that Tottenham will be very difficult, but at the beginning of the season without Kane Tottenham seemed to play even better, but injuries and a short bench did not allow Tottenham to fight for the championship in the EPL.

So at the end Manchester United did it and collected the precious three points so they are tied by points with Newcastle United and three points behind Chelsea which were able to win against Brighton by two goals to one.
Newcastle United missed some attempts, weren't able to maintain the draw then to avoid taking additional goals and paid for that badly. Anyway, that result will push Manchester United a little forward before facing Brighton in English Premier League and Manchester City in FA Cup finals.

I'm sure this is not how Erik ten Hag planned for the season to be like for him and the boys but at least this win can somehow alleviate a bit of the stress he's been under since the last three to four games.

Theg are getting this serious when the season is almost over,and with the way they played against Arsenal at old Trafford,I knew they could get something out of today's result. I love the way they composed themselves and played the game,it showed that they can be very aggressive when they want to be,but I don't just know what is really this United's problem,they are so inconsistent,and scared when they see some matches they were supposed to win.With this performance tonight,I know they will win their last match,whether they play away or at home against any side.

[MK-74]

Cole Palmer is the shining player of this year, I can even say the best player of this year.
He scored 22 goals and 10 assists in 33 games.
Chelsea will make a lot of money from the sale of Cole Palmer, a player whose value increases every day.

[Bananington]

The issue with Chelsea has long ago been converting their chances, they usually create more chances than their opponents but without a proper center forward who can’t score enough goals. Jackson might have scored many this season but should have be 10 plus more goals to his name this season. If not for their new signing Cole Palmer I don’t think they would still he going for the next European spot but their resilience will at least get them this arsenal

Cole Palmer brought the mentality from Pep's Manchester City into the Chelsea team and it really has helped affect the other players in Chelsea to want to improve how they play. Next season they could really be a contender to win the premier league if the coach and team continue. They need a striker who can turn many of the chances they will create into goals and although they have spent a lot of money already on the team, more needs to be spent to bring in some more players because this current team is not yet it.
