Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

[Oluwa-btc]

However, we must be fair as fans, Ruben Amorin has only been with Manchester United for two weeks and they have only faced one match with Amorin. He still needs time to adapt and make changes in Manchester United's body. But of course we hope that this adaptation will not take too long, considering the team's position which is in a less than good position, and whether it is in the premier league or in the uefa league.

I dislike  the English media truthfully,  at least they  should have given him two to three games before questioning him his three man back displayed yesterday. It might not take time, it all depends on the players to carry out the tactics and don't forget a couple few players are still trying to remain fit such as Kobbie Mainno,  when back hopefully they can help project the ideas of the manager on the pitch. I saw him complementing Andrea Onana online, he's always been great.

Liverpool vs Manchester City next week will determine a lot of things. Although Manchester City have the opportunity to turn things around in the second half of the season, as they did in the last two seasons, it seems that Pep Guardiola squad will have a very difficult time this season. Not because Manchester City are not capable of doing it, but Liverpool have been impressive and unstoppable. Next week's match will have a direct impact on the competition for trophies, if Manchester City lose points again, then I agree that Liverpool will almost certainly be able to win the Premier League trophy this season.

Liverpool are showing their best quality at the moment and Manchester City missed the chance to reduce the points gap to Liverpool after suffering a very embarrassing defeat.
This season has been much harder for Manchester City and I doubt they can make a big change in the second half of the season like last season.
If last season they were able to catch up with Arsenal's points, then this season I don't think they will be able to do it again.
The morale of the Manchester City players will certainly be quite disturbed because this is their fifth consecutive defeat and this is the first time that Manchester City have experienced this after successfully dominating the Premier League for four seasons.

Manchester City's chances of competing are very small because Liverpool's performance is much better this season, making it difficult for Pep Guardiola to retain the title this season.

So, what changed at Manchester United when Ruben Amorim came? They scored in the 2nd minute but only managed to draw the game. When Ruud van Nistelrooy was in charge, he won the game. Maybe it would have been better if he had stayed in charge. Anyway, it might be too early to talk. Amorim needs time to reflect the game he wants, but Manchester United can't afford to lose any more points. 12th place is an embarrassment for them. I don't know what can explain the lack of success when they have so much income and spend so much money. Amorim can't be criticized from the first game, but it's clear that he hasn't made a start that makes people dream.

hahaha quite a ticklish question, because people's expectations of Ruben Amorin are so high, even people are euphoric before Manchester United competes and say this will be a big win for Man United. but what happened when the match was in progress, Manchester United failed to win the match they should have won, because Ipswisch is a team that is considered not too strong for this season.

However, we must be fair as fans, Ruben Amorin has only been with Manchester United for two weeks and they have only faced one match with Amorin. He still needs time to adapt and make changes in Manchester United's body. But of course we hope that this adaptation will not take too long, considering the team's position which is in a less than good position, and whether it is in the premier league or in the uefa league.

All coaches don't have the ability to change the team for the better in a short period of time, even Guardiola who managed to lead Manchester City to consecutive Premier League titles also failed to build a team in his first season in charge, the same with Arteta and Klopp before, I think for now it is still too early for us to judge Amorim's performance in just one draw that they achieved, as we know, he has just become the coach of Manchester United and has not had enough time to implement his tactics, strategies and also the pattern of the game thoroughly to the Manchester United squad, especially since Amorim presence coincides with the international break, so indeed not all players may have received his briefing when he coached Manchester United which was indeed less than two weeks.

[tusandii]

Liverpool won their away game against Southampton which made them more confident to compete in the title race this season. The points difference between Manchester City and Liverpool is currently quite far and Man City is starting to have difficulty catching up on the points gap at this time because they have lost several times in their last 3 matches in the EPL it seems that Man City has lost their balance Liverpool's chances of winning the title are getting wider.
Btw, I won the bet on the Liverpool match and just have to wait for the results of the Newcastle vs West Ham match I hope Newcastle doesn't let me down.

Yeah, give Ruben Amorin time. Not just three games, maybe a whole season. We can give Erik ten Hag three seasons. So why are we so hard on Ruben Amorin? Even Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta needed time to help Man City - Arsenal get to where they are today.
With the current problems, MU needs to change drastically if they want to compete at a higher level, and the possibility of returning to the top 4 this season is still possible. I don't know if MU's return to the top 4 will be enough to satisfy the fans. If MU plays well in the next 8 matches in the Premier League, they will be able to enter the top 4 before the end of 2024. Let's hope, not expect too much.

#AmorimOut

Ipswich almost won, it just Onana made many great saves.

I have no idea what actually he thinks about, Garnacho isn't a midfielder, Diallo isn't a defender, Rashford isn't a striker, Zirkzee isn't a midfielder.

He just change and rotate the players he like without taking any consideration.

I'm sure Manchester United would be destroyed by Amorim.

[Ahli38]

All coaches don't have the ability to change the team for the better in a short period of time, even Guardiola who managed to lead Manchester City to consecutive Premier League titles also failed to build a team in his first season in charge, the same with Arteta and Klopp before, I think for now it is still too early for us to judge Amorim's performance in just one draw that they achieved, as we know, he has just become the coach of Manchester United and has not had enough time to implement his tactics, strategies and also the pattern of the game thoroughly to the Manchester United squad, especially since Amorim presence coincides with the international break, so indeed not all players may have received his briefing when he coached Manchester United which was indeed less than two weeks.

Well, one match cannot be used as a benchmark for assessing the quality of a coach at a club. And of course this also applies to Amorim, who has only accompanied Manchester United in one match. A draw for some people may be considered bad. But I think it's less bad than losing. And yes, Amorim still needs to adapt to a big team like Manchester United. because this is his first big club in his coaching career. He may have coached Sporting CP for quite a long time and could indeed bring good results there quickly. But the competition in the Portuguese league is very different from the Premier League. And currently he even has a tough task because he has to revive the performance of one of the big teams in the Premier League, namely Manchester United, which of course must be done more carefully. Because Amorim also has to get used to the huge pressure he will definitely feel when coaching a team as big as Manchester United. So let's give it enough time and make an assessment after the next few games.

A less than sweet debut for Ruben Amorim as Man United new coach. Man United had taken the lead after Rashford opened the scoring in the 2nd minute, but Ipswich Town managed to level the score again before the end of the first half. Yes, the British media should be more realistic when writing news, Amorim has just made his debut in the EPL, he should be given time to rebuild the Man United squad which has started to lose direction in the Ten Hag era. Although he failed to lead Man United to victory at Ipwich Town headquarters, at least they did not suffer defeat in this game.

[Marvell1]

I completely agree with you. Manchester United's performance last season was very bad. Even then, Manchester United management gave Ten Hag a chance. They gave big funds and gave enough time to Ten Hag. But even then we do not see good performance from Manchester United.

Ruben Amorin is a coach with enough quality and he has proven it. With the help of Ruben Amorin, Sporting team has been performing great in the last few seasons. A few days ago, we saw that Sporting won the Champions League match against Manchester City by a big margin. This was possible because of Ruben Amorin's excellent match strategy.

Ruben Amorin needs to be given enough time and funds. We should not have high expectations from Manchester United this season. However, if Manchester United's performance does not improve in the next season too, it will definitely be considered a failure of Ruben Amorin.

[Litzki1990]

After losing 5 consecutive matches, Manchester City have now lost their confidence and their game is going downhill. Currently, Manchester City are going through the worst time, who are not able to succeed even after attacking against their opponent team. Rather, we have seen that they have left the match against Tottenham before and last night they lost the match in the same bad way. No one can say why Manchester City is in such a situation now, besides, since they are not able to improve their game at the moment, it must be a wrong strategy of the coach. However, no one imagined that Manchester City's performance would be in such a bad state at the moment and if Manchester City continues to play like this, they will lose the top spot in the points table. Manchester City must consistently bring their underdogs back to a strong form otherwise they will lose their top spot this season.

It goes without saying that Manchester City have had a poor start to the season with some injury problems in the squad and the absence of key players. Despite the absence of some key players, I never imagined that Manchester City would consistently perform so poorly. Now they are losing regularly in the Premier League so it has become very challenging for them to retain the Premier League title now. Since some players have been sidelined for a long time due to injury and Manchester City will not be able to bring in any new players this season, they will have to finish the season with their current players.

In the Premier League, Manchester City is performing poorly on one side, while Liverpool is playing their best game regularly, due to which Liverpool will definitely be in the best position to win the Premier League title this season.

Although he failed to lead Man United to victory at Ipwich Town headquarters, at least they did not suffer defeat in this game.

In this phase, I would not even be surprised that news will appear comparing Amorim with Ruud. But the news that emerged regarding Ruben Amorim's debut is no longer surprising. Because the Man United club always gets a very big spotlight. And the news media that publish articles about them always attract a lot of readers' attention. So don't be surprised if there is a lot of news that is quite surprising. And this is where Amorim will really be tested mentally. He must be strong under the atmospheric pressure which is always great there.
But I probably believe amorim will give the best for this team. Although I saw some unusual changes in player positions there which made me a little surprised. But I hope everything is fine in the next match.

#AmorimOut

I'm sure Manchester United would be destroyed by Amorim.

Come on!!! It's too early for that, #Amorinout just now?
I believe that every coach needs time to implement his playing system into the team and that is what Amorin actually needs, though their are so many Manchester united fan that wouldn't be ok with that, they want an immediate impact from him, but I believe that this Manchester united side has regress so much in the hands of Eric ten hang, so it's definitely going to take time for him to restore Manchester united back to the level they were actually known for.

Yes, I know that most Manchester united fan would also argue that rud van nistelrooy brought the best easily from this Manchester united side and they were much more better, yes it's very true, but he shouldn't be compared to Amorin because rud van nistelrooy knows the club much more better than him, and it's definitely going to take Amorin some time for him to acclimatize into his surroundings and get used to the quality of players at his disposal, so let's just give him time.

Tottenham is one of those teams in the EPL that can surprise anyone, because before this win Tottenham lost to Ipswich, who won the EPL for the first time in 22 years. So Tottenham can make it a roller coaster ride for their fans.

Arsenal supporters would have been happier about this Tottenham's win if it was last season when they needed them to help. Tottenham surprised everyone in the Etihad stadium, a place where Manchester City loss is always very unexpected. Liverpool may likely lose too if they do not take the Southampton game seriously. Small teams can be difficult for big teams to win sometime when they are not taken seriously. If Liverpool win this game, they increase more the chances they have to win the league this season.

Arsenal were very unlucky last season when they had to contend with Manchester City at their peak.
It's the same as it was in La Liga when Messi, Neymar and Suarez played for Barcelona and it was clear that they would win La Liga, but after Neymar's departure the team went into a slump, and City's slump happened because of a series of injuries, when most of the players in the main squad are out of action and can't help, and City's transfer campaign was extremely bad.

We could be happy for Arsenal this season, but here Liverpool came out of the crisis they were in last season under Klopp and Slot has built an extremely strong team, which practically does not know defeats. Apparently, if Liverpool don't have any big failures, they will become EPL winners this season.

There is no denying that Chelsea are performing well this season. And if Manchester City continue their poor performance, then in a few days we will see Chelsea team in second place in the points table. Chelsea played very well in the last match too, and won against Leicester City by 2-1. Chelsea's overall performance is stable.

Manchester City's performance against Tottenham was boring. Although City's attack performance was irregular, I thought City's defense was very strong. Manchester City conceded four goals in this match, City could not score a single goal. Although City players were able to take a total of 23 shots, they could not score a single goal.

Chelsea has proven its development and now only Manchester United remains because these two team were previously quite bad but slowly Manchester United has also changed although it has not really been able to be like Chelsea which is more significant in changing for the better.
For the time being, Manchester City will only be like this, I don't know if they can return in the near future or not, then for the last match this week, Newcastle vs West Ham remains and this is home game for Newcastle, if they win then they can immediately occupy 6th place for the standings.
I take Newcastle as the favorite and added with the 1st goal, Over 2.5 and BTTS with odds @3.70.

Lol, Manchester united fans will come for your head now for saying this. Starting Evans and Erickson was his error. Ipswich saw the weakness around Eric, Dalot and Evans triangle where they capitalized and attacked throughout the game.

To some point, I don't blame him because that was his first game and it's obvious he could only try to evaluate the system and the players to determine who fits his approach. From his post match interview, he already admit and identity the errors. I believe things will probably get improved as he progress gradually.

However, he should be aware that this is English premier league. Too much talking will not win him any match. He should remain focused on his primary assignment than giving media attention.

[cryptoWODL]

Yes Manchester City recently lost to Tottenham Hotspur which was big disappointment. This loss also ended their amazing 38 game winning streak at home. Liverpool win over Southampton made gap between two teams even bigger now 8 points. Their next match against Manchester City is very important. If Liverpool wins, they will be 11 points ahead and have more comfortable lead. Manchester City had bad start to season losing five games in row and letting in 14 goals.

Manchester City and Tottenham faced each other in a Premier League match yesterday. But it was unimaginable that Manchester City would lose so badly in this match. The style of play of Manchester City's players against Tottenham looked like they had weakened a lot. With the defeat against Tottenham, Manchester City have lost three matches in a row in the Premier League this season, which also resulted in them dropping a lot of points.

By the way their next match against Liverpool will be tough Guardiola might be focusing more on their Champions League game coming up mid week.

Manchester City will face the mighty Liverpool in their next match i.e. UEFA Champions League match. Maybe this match will be much tougher for Manchester City, they might even lose this match. Just as Liverpool are the strongest team in the Premier League, they are also the strongest team in this year's Champions League. Therefore, if any team faces against this team, they will have a high chance of defeat.

I know how disappointed Amorim after the game, and his mimick during his post interview said it all. No win and conceded a goal in his first game at Manchester Untied. I know how disappointed he was to his club. lol.

His team always giveaway the ball so cheaply to their opponent, and they often under pressure. Almost all of their players were flop except Amad.

Like i said before, United fans were hyped him too much, then it comes to the another disappointment.  

Lol, Manchester united fans will come for your head now for saying this. Starting Evans and Erickson was his error. Ipswich saw the weakness around Eric, Dalot and Evans triangle where they capitalized and attacked throughout the game.

If you're in the united fans sub forum, many of them disliked amorim's first game result. PleagueDeath said about the truth.

[bitLeap]

However, we must be fair as fans, Ruben Amorin has only been with Manchester United for two weeks and they have only faced one match with Amorin. He still needs time to adapt and make changes in Manchester United's body. But of course we hope that this adaptation will not take too long, considering the team's position which is in a less than good position, and whether it is in the premier league or in the uefa league.

I dislike  the English media truthfully,  at least they  should have given him two to three games before questioning him his three man back displayed yesterday. It might not take time, it all depends on the players to carry out the tactics and don't forget a couple few players are still trying to remain fit such as Kobbie Mainno,  when back hopefully they can help project the ideas of the manager on the pitch. I saw him complementing Andrea Onana online, he's always been great.

This is the first match so it must be understood because the Man United players have not been able to fully implement the strategy that Amorim wants. The players are still raw and rusty because they look confused with Amorim system. Everything takes time and it is certain that Amorim winter transfer will definitely want to recruit new players who fit his game system.

Liverpool vs Manchester City next week will determine a lot of things. Although Manchester City have the opportunity to turn things around in the second half of the season, as they did in the last two seasons, it seems that Pep Guardiola squad will have a very difficult time this season. Not because Manchester City are not capable of doing it, but Liverpool have been impressive and unstoppable.

Liverpool are showing their best quality at the moment and Manchester City missed the chance to reduce the points gap to Liverpool after suffering a very embarrassing defeat.

Liverpool is Liverpool will always be able to make a comeback even though there was an unacceptable referee decision because it should have been a penalty. The distance of 8 clean points from Man City so that Liverpool will be more comfortable at the top of the standings.

Indeed there was several mistakes which made by Amorim but i couldn't says he deserved to out because it is too early and some people has been says why Manchester United failed to win from Ipswich is because Amorim placed the players not into their real position which this is risky besides those players you mention above Amorim also has attempts to playing Casemiro and Erikson in the same position which this is big mistakes because these players were unable to control the game

But i think we cannot fully blame Amorim because he have to utilize the current of Manchester United squad which most likely not compatible with the system but i think Amorim should be bought some players in January to strengthen Manchester United because in my opinion if Amorim still insist want to used the current squad i think it's hard for him to lifted up Manchester United performance

[Inwestour]

However, he should be aware that this is English premier league. Too much talking will not win him any match. He should remain focused on his primary assignment than giving media attention.

Mistakes were inevitable, it's only the first game and it's obvious that he will have to try different combinations on the pitch. I don't think Amorim wants a lot of media attention, in my opinion this is what has tired Klopp the most over time, it's just that in the Premier League it can't be any other way, you will always be in the spotlight, and for now they are very loyal to him, but then they will need victories, otherwise this loyalty will quickly disappear.
