Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

[Umulala-alala]

Manchester city is not in good form, and I remember the last time Manchester City won was against nottingham Forest. Since that match, Manchester City has not been able to win a game, including today's match against Brighton, which ended in a 1-1 draw. I thought Manchester City would win today's match against Brighton, but in reality, they failed. The goal scored by Manchesterr City's player was only from a penalty kick. What do you think? Will Manchester City bounce back or not? But at least Manchester City was lucky to get a draw instead of a loss, and fortunately Haaland executed the penalty kick well, resulting in the match ending in a draw.

I have lost repeatedly when betting on manchesterr City, and it seems I need to be more cautious when betting on their next match.

Manchester city hitting back winning runs is what i think can be possible in a short time from now, remember last season when the same Manchester city lost consistency at the first quarter of the tournament, no one believed they could still make it at the top four position which they did so i don't think this one will be different because there form now is even better compared to last season when they had the same issue. But with the way the premier league is going this season, alot of questions have been asked concerning the consistency of all England big teams apart from arsenal that stands a better chance to win the league if only they could maintain in the same spirit

If they can continue winning matches they will win the premier league title, Man city has drop form and are equally dropping points to give Arsenal more advantage to win the title.
Arsenal will be playing Liverpool today an interesting match to watch as it may be Arsenal is the most consistent club in the premier league with Arsenal form they can win Liverpool because Liverpool is not also consistent, Arsenal will be points gap if they win Liverpool at the Emirate stadium and it will also be a whole lots of celebration for the Gunners.

But I'm sure this is the impact of Maresca's dismissal, as it will certainly further devastate Chelsea's already unstable performance. So this is the result of Chelsea's hasty decision to fire the coach. I'm sure if they had been more patient, Chelsea wouldn't have performed as badly as they are now. chelsea lost to Fulham in the previous match, which clearly shocked us all. So, with this, I think Chelsea is finished and won't be able to recover quickly..

Chelsea was also abandoned by his coach, although it was not his fault but the club's that decided to fire him and this thing will then be seen in the future also in my opinion it is a result of a decision taken in a hurry that will certainly bring him problems in the future

I like Maresca. But I will not say that the decision of chelsea management is wrong. Chelsea management gave Maresca enough time to stabilize their squad. Despite  spending a lot of money to form the squad, chelsea failed to perform as expected. And we have seen their performance decline day by day. So it is natural that chelsea management will look for a new coach. Anyway, it is doubtful whether chelsea's new coach will  be able to stabilize  the team. Chelsea will face  big problems again if they cannot appoint an experienced manager.

Looking at how these game results have been coming this year, I think it's easy for the bookies to say Arsenal are the hot favourites...but when this game gets played on the pitch, it's a whole different ball game and Arsenal could actually receive a beating this evening so let's keep an open mind today  

What I think it will happen in this match today is draw 1-1 for Arsenal to share point with Liverpool, but it will not make Arsenal sad than to make Liverpool coach and their fans sad because they want Liverpool to be the first team to defeat Arsenal in this season, I don't think Arsenal will give Liverpool such chances to defeat them but they can make mistakes that will allow Liverpool to score goal, but achieving victory from Arsenal today it will not work because Arsenal have talented squads that will make this match draw or end for their favour 1-0.

Liverpool is a great club and the rivalry with other top English Premier League clubs will always be there so I understand why you think it'll likely end in a 1:1. But without taking anything away from the Liverpool side, I seriously do nott think that they've got all it takes to match Arsenal's strength at the moment. I would've given Liverpool more chance of winning or drawing the game if it would be played at Anfield but since Arsenal is the home team in this game, I doubt Liverpool will be able to get a point from it.
I can't predict the outright scoreline, I know it'll be a difficult game for both sides but at the end, I expect Arsenal to win this particular one.

[verdinio]

After a coaching change a club certainly needs a process, not being able to give their best immediately especially since Manchester United has been playing for a long time under Amorim. Naturally with a new coach, the game needs to adapt. A draw is certainly disappointing especially against a weaker team, especially since Newcastle and Brentford have overtaken Manchester United in the standings. So it's safe to say that Manchester United won't be in the Champions League next season either as this team needs to adapt and its midfield is very poor.

In the match against Burley, United actually played much better football than we saw under Amorim and they should have won by a few goals. With the current squad the new manager clearly still needs two midfielders to replace Casemiro and Ugarte. Our wing-backs are very poor with Shaw and Dalot.

Yes, the game and many other things must adapt it is clear that a change of coach is a bit strange for everyone, especially after there has been all that work on his part to give an imprint to the team that then did not work and now that team has remained with the old teachings of the old coach

It depends on how Liverpool, whether they return again like at the beginning of the season or not from the performance they have, I really doubt Liverpool can get a win in this match, Arsenal must be doing their best, Arteta must have prepared how to deal with Liverpool who are in a bad state at the moment, Liverpool previously could be held to a draw by Fulham who were not favored, and tonight Liverpool are also playing away, it is very difficult for him to win it.

Arsenal are almost in the hands of the current trophy.

Even in Manchester city's inconsistent moment i still consider them favourite to the league title more than arsenal that have been in good form since the starting of the season. Manchester city is a team that plays with dreams and focus even in there difficult moments and never forget what they are fighting for. As for arsenal they portray a specific culture which is losing consistency starting from every January when even they find themselves off the dangerous zone that's why even while topping the league with over 10 in 2023, they later lost it to there rival Manchester city which i think can still repeat this season.

Of course we know that, but currently we know that they are inconsistent and what do we have to say when an inconsistent team is to meet with team that is better than them at the moment, although a 1:1 draw is possible, any of the side can win too, but when we are discussing football we do not discuss it with emotions, it has to be the present realities and what is the present realities, Arsenal is more in gold performance than their opponents Liverpool, they are two big teams but who among them can we say is the favorite to win, Arsenal which is right, I will see how this match will be but arsenal wining this match more sure than a draw, since surprises is a normal thing in football, we can still expect anything.

Manchester City finally drew again this time against Brighton, their third consecutive draw in the Premier League. This is clearly not the trend Pep wanted as this point loss puts them further behind Arsenal. Even if as you said, Manchester City can win consecutive matches in their next matches with such a large points gap over Arsenal it will be difficult for them to catch up.

If Arsenal win against Liverpool it looks like the Premier League title will end in January. While Arsenal have struggled to maintain consistency late in the season due to a lack of squad depth in recent seasons this season looks like Arsenal are well-prepared to win the long-awaited Premier League title.

[Arenga pinnata]

Liverpool are in good form, they haven’t lost for a while and look more stable, but they still drop points in key moments, especially in matches they are expected to win. Arsenal, on the other hand, are having a very strong season, leading the league with confidence and regularly proving their quality in big games. I think that at home the Gunners will be able to control the game and not allow their opponent to impose their rhythm. In my view, Arsenal’s greater consistency should help them secure the win today.

So far, Arsenal has been the most consistent team. however, Liverpool has not been too bad either. It's just that Liverpool failed to get full points in their last game and the game before that. They have only been able to get draws even against opponents that are not particularly strong, such as Leeds and Fulham. so, I think the same thing will happen in this game, namely that Liverpool will not get full points.

However, some surprising results have occurred in this 21st week. for instance, Aston Villa, Manchester City, and Manchester United were held to draws by their opponents. meanwhile, Chelsea and Tottenham even lost points. Therefore, I wouldn't be surprised if Arsenal is held to a draw by Liverpool.

[Oluwa-btc]

I have the feeling that Arsenal will win, they have to because that will give them the opportunity to continue their lead with 8 points gap of their closest rival Manchester City. But I'm a little unsure of a win for either side give the prevalence of draws in the league than anything. That much stand so much like a draw than anything. I will bet on both sides to score  because I see the match possibly ending in 1-1 draw which is not bad for either side.

It is their season, it is their time, they will be winning this game tonight against Liverpool. If they could do things like the did against Bayern Munich, because that game has got to be one of the best football matches they have played this season. Ending as draw? That will be a no no, after Aston Villa and Manchester City dropped points, I think it is about time they extend the win here at home with a clean sheet. What I see at the end of the game should be 2-0, or 3-0.

[Uruhara]

Aston Villa and Chelsea really disappointed me in this match. Man City and Tottenham too. Meanwhile, Man United still seems to be as bad as usual, even though their coach is no longer Amorim. Fortunately, most matches ended with both teams scoring goals. And I think the Arsenal vs. Liverpool match will be the same, with both teams scoring goals.

But given Arsenal's current position in the standings, I think Arsenal will have a significant advantage and be hard to catch if they win today's match. However, Liverpool won't let Arsenal win that easily.

[ITExpert]

West Ham is certainly a team that is doing some bad things in this league and if it continues like this they will certainly be relegated, now they are third from last and it gets even more serious, unfortunately the Premier League does not forgive those who do not apply themselves and unfortunately i think their fate is already sealed

West ham is a team which is totally not doing well and they are continuously on this way to not make things in the best way. And if they do not try to change themselves somehow to the betterment side it will be terrifying for them. Because their current position is still not even good and it does not seem to be good in the coming days or matches. Because the time is with those which put their all efforts to make a strong competition. And there are teams which are facing troubles or difficulties as being the top teams so it is clear which things can happen to a team which is not doing their best. And Nottingham forest is a good team and I think they scored very deserving points. Their performance is quite better than the current situation of West Ham and they really need to pay attention towards their betterment.

[macson]

Manchester City and Aston Villa dropping points on the same day is a good advantage for Arsenal because if Arsenal takes all three points from Liverpool tonight, they will increase their chances of winning the Premier League title this season. But the question is, will Arsenal be able to win against Liverpool at Emirates Stadium this night and seize the lucky opportunity that was sponsored by Brighton and Crystal Palace?

Given Arsenal's current form, they have a strong chance of winning the match and extending their lead at the top of the table. Liverpool's performance has been less convincing, especially with Ekitike doubtful due to a muscle injury that hasn't fully recovered. This will weaken Liverpool's attack, allowing Bukayo Saka to play more flexibly up front. With this, Arsenal's chances of winning could be greater, especially since they are playing at home, which is a significant advantage for them.

Arsenal Vs Liverpool, EPL title decider?

Well I think the title contenders should be between Arsenal and Man City as they have being really consistent this season right from the start. Liverpool has not had quite a good season so far but still found a way to stand back on their feet and back to their winning ways, but I don't see them winning this game against Arsenal today.

Aston Villa destroyed Arsenal's long term win streak with an outstanding 2-1 victory and they are the only club after Liverpool to go home with three points against the Gunners this season. That's a quite impressive record right? Liverpool won 1-0 at home to Arsenal at the beginning of the season and here's another game to watch out.

My prediction for the match is either Arsenal wins or draw, as we all know Premier League would never stop with their surprises so it's safe to give the home side a double chance. It would not be an easy match for Arsenal but I'm sure they would not lose to Liverpool in today's match .

[banana33]

although liverpool may seem like an easy opponent for arsenal, i believe tonight's match will be a major test for arsenal. they have significantly increased the points gap between themselves and manchester city, and if they win this match, the points gap will increase even more. especially to guarantee the championship, they need to increase this point gap in such matches while there is still a long way to go in the league.

looking at the odds, arsenal's victory seems certain, but we must not forget that their opponent is liverpool. still, i think arsenal will win this match with a score like 2-1 or 3-1.

 I think so too also because this Liverpool is hungry for victories even if it is meeting the first of the championship, it will certainly be an important test, if they win here and win against Liverpool they can certainly do better and then everything will really change for them, the motivation will be a lot

[Taricoins]

Arsenal Vs Liverpool, EPL title decider?

English Premier League is a league that is always interesting and full of suspense. It has the history of producing one of the best teams in the Champions League and also in the Europa League as well as the conference league. The English Premier League is always competitive such that even in the last match of the season, no one will actually know the teams that will proceed to the European competitions. Just like other seasons, Arsenal used to top the league for a considerable duration of time but when it is actually the time to close up, they will fall short and lack behind leaving the season to Guardiola and his boys or recently to Liverpool.

With the way Arsenal started this season, there is every pointer that this season will be a difference. Arsenal has a better squad depth and they have been doing great as the best team in England without exhausting their strength. This means that toward the end of the season, they will still be active and eventually win the English Premier League. But I consider today's match with Liverpool as one of the deciders of Arsenal's faith. If Arsenal is able to go home with 3 points today, they will eventually win the league.

I feel like talking about this match so intensely might actually jinx it for Arsenal, yeah we very much know how important this much is for the road to glory for Arsenal, but there is still about 18 matches and up to 54 points yet to claim and Arsenal might end up fumbling ( which I highly doubt) it's just that Man City are making it easy for them. But yeah this match and there continous form can actually win the league for them after how many years.

[RockBell]

Looking at how these game results have been coming this year, I think it's easy for the bookies to say Arsenal are the hot favourites...but when this game gets played on the pitch, it's a whole different ball game and Arsenal could actually receive a beating this evening so let's keep an open mind today  

And tonight the game is against Liverpool, when I saw people talking if we are going to make it out of this is just very funny because people are still underestimating Arsenal and trying to compare Arsenal with Liverpool that are still struggling, and we have face people that are in good condition who is now arsenal that we can not defeat because at this point we are the king of the premier league and the worst Liverpool can do is to draw us but i so much trust how squad that they are going to deliver.

And football is not easy to predict because things can easily take a turn, but at this point, I trust the process, and this game, I believe in Arsenal for sure, because no doubt I see that everything is going to be okay and the way you are taking that arsenal will receive beating do you know what you are talking about at all.

[FanEagle]

after change the manager from  Ruben Amorim to the interim manager Darren Fletcher need time for processing good performance and the new manager need time adapting well his tactician. I disagree with Manchester United management lack patience waiting the process and easily sack new manager without giving them more time to adopt their tactical.

Normally with disappointed result after Manchester United getting one point from weaker teams Burnley last match, but Darren Flecther just few days appointing as interim manager and he lack time how to make his team playing well. I think next chance for him win the match against Brighton Albion at FA Cup 3rd round and facing Manchester City in Premier League match at January 17, 2026.

I feel like United gives way too much time for managers, they should have fired Amorim last season when he finished 15th, doesn't matter if it wasn't his team, you don't take that squad and finish that low with United, you do better, and if you don't, you get fired. I support them getting a temporary manager now, someone for six months, get anyone they want but if they finish anything under sixth, fire that coach too.

There is no reason to keep this going because if that manager didn't show you anything in six months, then they are not going to show you anything later on neither. They keep waiting a bit more every single time. ETH showed them how terrible he was too, and yet they started the season with him, eventually had to fire him.

[ASloveapg]

This match is a very strong match, on one side Arsenal who are at the top of the table with a total of 48 points, and on the other side Liverpool who are a very strong team, Liverpool will try to win in any way, despite Arsenal being the best team this season, I will now be in favor of Liverpool, Liverpool's current position is in fourth place with 34 points. Anyway, I am very optimistic that Liverpool will win this match, although it will be very difficult, because firstly it is Arsenal's home ground, and secondly they are winning consistently, so it is going to be a very difficult match for Liverpool.

I have lost repeatedly when betting on manchesterr City, and it seems I need to be more cautious when betting on their next match.

Three draws in a row may seem anomalous, but in reality, compared to the start of the season, it's merely a return to the mean. Before these draws, City had six consecutive Premier League wins (eight in a row across all competitions). I don't see any reason why City should win all the time. It's probably no surprise that Aston Villa drew with a weak Crystal Palace. On the one hand, it's a loss of points against an underdog, but on the other, if they had won, they would have been in clear second place. That would have been too good for them.
