Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

I agree that Manchester United is the favorite for tonight's match against Fulham. They have a strong team even with some players injured and have a good chance of winning. I also think there will be more than two goals in the game, so an over 2.5 bet could be a good prediction. I believe Manchester United will come out on top tonight.

The bookmakers themselves say it, if you look at Manchester United they really give a figure that makes it clear that they are the favorite of many. Then in football nothing can be said, even a small team can suddenly change and play spectacular matches. Like Ranieri's Leicester years ago.

Tottenham dominate the possession but it was very meaningless thou. They supposed to beat teams like Leicester city if they really want to be challenging in the top four of this league. They were just like last season that they will dominate the game but fail to score to seal the game and concede unnecessary equalizer then try to rally when it's too late. Despite their possessions, Leicester could have won that game had it been they were clinical upfront because they were the side who had displayed aggression towards the goal post. Allowing a team they should have put away ages ago to come back into the game is not a good way to start the season.

Like how Mourinho once said, they can take the ball home if they want, Leicester will take the points. It was a tie in the end and not a win for Leicester City anyway, Tottenham got point too and that's good enough start. I believe that Leicester City coming back from the championship made people think that they are not good enough, but the reality is that they had some good periods last season there, and if they can do as well here, they would not be a relegation level team, they could actually finish top half of the table this season.

This will not be easy and a lot of people question their ability to do that well but I believe they have a chance. It's not an easy task to go to premier league and stay there, hell this team won it and still relegated after a few seasons, so it's a tough job to stay if you do not have a lot of money but they have a good squad right now and could do very well this season. I will be watching them play very closely without a doubt.

Foden without a doubt had an excellent season last year. He was purely phenomenal and exceptional for Manchester City. This shows that Manchester city is actually a good club. It is not easy to see a club that is been build around one person and someone who also is not the second top man still made his way to the top.

Just imagine KDB being the top man, and Haaland being the second top man and yet, Foden had his way to win the PFA award. If he should remain consistent, he could achieve same fit this season.

Fidel did a great job last season and I think his performance is even better than what Haaland, and the kind of players surrounding foden are behind his success because no too much stress and he plays comfortably with stress since all our players are excellent players, so playing for Manchester City you won't have problems with playing with very poor players. Pep won't bring you to that club if he does not see anything in you because pep wants a long lasting players not just players but those once with talent, reason been that pep will always look at the future and to me all our players are good.

KDB is the main man that everyone knows and can testify because he gives more assist and score more goals his a multi talented players, Foden was good during, last season and scored good goals, and foden will do more this season, I have trust is foden, and he will be consistent and will be able to win PFA award, with time he will win a lot of award.

Sterling expressed his displeasure after being left on the bench in the first round match against City, Maresca did not give him the opportunity to play even a few minutes, but he is not the only player who has faced such a problem. And this is not surprising, with such a depth of the squad there will always be unhappy players who will be left out of the game. I see this as a problem, because such a situation will lead to a lot of conflicts in the team, and I am almost sure that players like Sterling will not agree to sit on the bench, and will soon want to leave the team.

Sterling if he is not happy with the coach's decision not to play him in the match against Man City means he is not mature. Every professional player, no matter how old and experienced, must be prepared for the fact that he might not be in the squad on match day. That does not mean their future at the club is in question, or they should protest and leave the club. Every coach must have a strategy when facing an opponent, maybe at that time including Sterling was not the right choice.

As a senior player, he should be wise in seeing the coach's decision so that this does not cause conflict within the team. Sterling should go straight to the next match this season, and he must give a good first impression so that the coach will pay attention so that he can become the coach's main choice. Because no matter how good the coach is, if there is conflict within the team, it is not good for the next matches, let alone competing for the EPL league trophy.

It would be foolish to expect a better performance from Chelsea. Maybe the team's performance will stabilize a bit. But I don't think Chelsea deserve to be in the top four of the points table at the moment. This club has a lot of internal problems. The management of the club is not experienced and this is their first weakness.

However, this season too, Chelsea will form a squad with a new coach. Looking forward to seeing if Enzo Maresca will make Chelsea stronger again. But the Chelsea team is in a very bad position right now. Rapid improvement is not possible for this team. But if Maresca has long term plan then maybe Chelsea's overall situation will change slowly and we will see stable performance from Chelsea.

The problem with the Chelsea club even when the coach has a long term plan for the team to be victorious in the future, you’ll just see the President sacking the coach after just one season flop and that’s not how to built a strong team. You need to have a transitional structure before you can achieve that and if you don’t follow it duly, you’ll cause the team not to rise amongst others in many years to come.

Chelsea’s poor performance have been on for more than two seasons now since the sack of Thomas Tuchel, all the coaches that came after him really did their best but Pochettino was the best man for the job but was sacked just after a season. Now they’re back to square one and need to start building the team again. I hope the same fate of Pochttino don’t happen to Enzo Maresca by end of the season.
