Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[ShowOff]

The final score was quite thin, finally won by the defending champion standings. Undoubted quality regarding the performance of Man City. However, Gabriel had to receive a red card. So that the balance of the game becomes unbalanced. Even though from the start of the match Arsenal had put quite a dangerous pressure on it. Naturally, if Arsenal conceded 1 point. This is unavoidable by defenses that are vulnerable to being breached. This score makes Manchester City back at the top which is difficult for the Chelsea club to catch.

Manchester City were really lucky to win the match vs Arsenal today. I think we can lose if Arsenal can play like the first half and no one is sent off for a red card. But I was very happy when Rodrigo silenced the Arsenal fans at the end of the second half, it was a natural celebration after they struggled to score during match.
 

This score makes Manchester City back at the top which is difficult for the Chelsea club to catch.

No, Manchester City just maintain a slick record to remain the favorites to win this season.

Watford     0 - 1   Tottenham

Tottenham scored the only goal of the match in 90 + 6 minutes and won. I'm glad they won, because I didn't lose money. I would have lost money if Tottenham had lost. However, Sanchez scored in today's match, he is a defender of Tottenham. None of the forward's players played well today. Kane and Son made a few shots in the second half, but could not make a strong attack. I would say Tottenham's luck is very good so they are winning.
Tottenham are now just two points behind Arsenal. However, they have played 2 matches less than Arsenal.

At last, at the final (good) moment of the game, Tottenham gets the win and I also don't lose my parlay like you.
I thought though that Tottenham will win it a lot easier and for certain without a late goal. I agree that their luck is on fire.
Now the only thing that remains is to see 2+ goals been scored in the Crystal Palace - West Ham match and... Happy New Year.

If I was Arteta, I'd be furious with the refereeing today. Arsenal played a really good first half, unfortunately they did not score another goal and they eventually paid the price after Gabriel's sending off.

City made a huge step towards the title, it's still a lot to play for but they were the biggest favorites before the season. Now after half of it gone, they have a minimum of 6 points and potentially 10+ points advantage in front of both Liverpool and Chelsea.

Anything can happen but City doesn't really have huge drops in form or results and they are wide enough to be able to answer in case of some injuries/covid/etc. I'd give them 90% chance to win it, but we'll fight for that 10%.

A really, really huge goal by Rodri today.

[bitzizzix]

this season man city can only beat itself - for me there is no other team in the premier league at the moment that could take on the citizens in a duel for the english championship title

caygan, I guess that's too much for now. Manchester City could still lose for the rest of the season or they could still drop points. If some Premier League teams apply total defense and quick counter-attacks against Manchester City then I'm sure those teams will get the points. It's a strategy that can make it difficult for Manchester City to score, but may not work when City are at their best.

Right now it may be difficult for all Premier League teams to duel for the title against Manchester City, but anything is always possible in football. So I just want to see the competition for the top team in the Premier League can be done until the end of the season even though at the moment Manchester City looks difficult to match.

Indeed, the competition continues and nothing is impossible, but with what has been said it is not easy, because at the time of the match the strategy can change and will change if it is difficult to score goals or difficulty breaking into the opponent's defense.
and it will happen to Manchester City or any other team and but it all depends on the cohesiveness of the team and also the coach which I think Manchester City has the complete package in every way.
Even if he loses one point or only gets one point for the next game, it will not be easy for the other team to catch up with his position as the points are very far unless Manchester City accept back-to-back defeats.

[dataispower]

Top class from the defending Champions, they have been the best so far.
The host had a good game plan that worked for them,lead at halftime with a single goal from Saka,he has back to back in three games in the premier league.
No further excuses, Manchester City wanted the win they claimed all three points.
Deep down wanted Arsenal closing down the gaps today, but all failed.

[ShowOff]

Anything can happen but City doesn't really have huge drops in form or results and they are wide enough to be able to answer in case of some injuries/covid/etc. I'd give them 90% chance to win it, but we'll fight for that 10%.

Since you don't look like a Manchester City supporter, isn't that too big of a chance for the team you're going up against?
Manchester City will get 75% chance from me "fans" to win the title this season and another 25% will belong to another team to stay competitive until the end of the season. 10+ points is not too big a number to chase because covid and injuries will greatly affect Manchester City's performance in their future matches.

A really, really huge goal by Rodri today.

Of course, he angered the Arsenal fans and threw him from the stands.  

[dataispower]

Two points behind fourth place sitters@Arsenal.
Antonio Conte remains unbeaten at the end of the day, a narrow win from Sanchez.
This is the fighting mentality a team gets from Conte's management, it ain't over until it's over.
Twenty three minutes gone and West Ham have taken the lead,goal from Antonio!!

[BALIK]

In the Crystal Palace vs West Ham's match, many people suggested to me to place a bet on the draw. Due to the West Ham team's performance in the last few matches was not good. But I took the risk and kept my money to win West Ham. West Ham took a 2-0 lead in the 25th minute. The first goal was scored by Michail Antonio and the second goal was scored by Manuel Lanzini. We do not yet know what the outcome will be, but West Ham are 2 goals ahead of Royce, they are more likely to win.

Yeah, maybe it is a bit too little for Liverpool and Chelsea, but even the bookies agree. They are giving odds of 1.13 on average on City winning the title, which equates to a little bit over 10% for the remaining teams.
If the next game wasn't Chelsea - Liverpool and if Liverpool did not have to let 2 really important players leave for the AFCON championship soon, I'd probably lower these odds for City by another 10%. However, I really feel they are strong favorites - they were even before the season started.

But hey - it's football and we've seen weirder things happening. I'm sure Liverpool will push until the end.

If am arsenal fan I would be very proud of my team performance, arsenal did great against the reigning champions they were everywhere at the first half,they even won Manchester City in possessions in the first half, Saka gave Ake nightmare all through until they lose Gabriel to red card,and even when they are down to 10 men they still defend very solid until that stoppage time goal.they should be proud of their performance.

Daaamn you know what i was going to bet for tottenham to win when the game entered the injury time.

i hhad that feeling, tottenham keep making on pressure and i see the odds worth to give a shot at around 11!
always had this kind bet in my life so yeah that's quite normal day for me to feel a bit regret.
nice one conte! i do really love him, the way he always passionate managing a club to matter where he is at.
meanwhile unlucky arsenal should have hold manchester city .. they are in unbeaten run and winning streak, daamn pep!

[Fesatmas]

If Tottenham can win today's and next match, they have a chance to be in the top 4 of the points table. Hopefully they don't want to miss this opportunity.

The position has not changed until this second half. no one has scored a single goal. Judging from the statistics the probability of winning Tottenham is favored. But here Watford are trying their best not to give the slightest gap. Even attacks from forwards and midfielders from Tottenham are always broken. the quality of Watford's defensive back makes it all difficult. Let's whether the final score will remain unchanged? it means the position of Man United can not be passed just like that.

Watford tried their best to draw the match. But in the end they failed. Tottenham scored in extra time, and won the match 1-0. They were able to score 3 points.

Despite such erratic and poor performances, Tottenham are now fifth in the table. And if they win the next match, they can easily move to fourth place in the table. But with Manchester United having such a strong squad, they are now seventh in the table. I wnat to say to Manchester United "Grow up kids"

I never expected a goal in this crucial minute. Of course, I have already said that the new position will be occupied by Tottenham. But West Ham have new points to catch up with Arsenal. 2 goals created by West Ham actually made this more interesting. When many are vying between 5 and 4 positions it makes things even hotter. No one should squander the opportunity, because even the slightest gap will make Arsenal's position replaceable. West ham as the right candidate.

[BITCOIN4X]

You are can of course understand what I mean, if you look at the performance of the two teams and also the performance of the referee today.
As a fan of my arsenal, I don't feel sad if in today match arsenal lost, because everyone who watched the match certainly could Judging how great Arsenal players are today against Manchester City, apart from that supposing Arsenal don't get a red card, it's not impossible if the match will end in a draw or even Arsenal win,  you can try to look at the statistics.

What stats do you want to talk about, I watched this match for 45+2 & 90+6 (1 minute bonus for Arsenal so 90+7). LOL
I don't need to go into everything about how Arsenal and Manchester City played in that match, but if you want to talk about statistics then I hope the notes below can make you believe that Arsenal were beaten by the referee not Manchester City.

[swogerino]

I thought Crystal Palace to take at least a draw in this game against West Ham but West Ham is on fire on these last two games winning 1-4 against Watford and already leading 0-3 in the first half against Crystal Palace.They scoring performance is at another level during these last two games.I am not going to bet anymore against them,I had bet on a draw in this game against Crystal Palace but they are already leading 3-0 since this first half.

[judas]

The biggest game of the day was obviously Arsenal - Manchester City. And to be honest, I was having zero expectation about Arsenal to play better than their opponent. They really deserved to win this game. For the people who weren't able to watch the game, I would say that you shouldn't be misled by the statistics. Arsenal were the team that played very solid. Manchester City had a really big difficulty against them. And if it weren't for the red card, I believe that Arsenal still would have got ahead again and won the game. I think that Manchester City got an undeserved win by 2-1.

West Ham's scoring ability makes me choose to bet a bit safer and go for 2+ goals. My only doubt was if they will manage to score all the goals without conceding one, so far they doing well both in attack and defense. Although it will be nice to see a more attacking Crystal Palace, it seems that the second goal cut off their hopes, and they just breakout.

[Woodie]

Arsenal impressed me with the fight they put up against Manchester city in a match we all knew of the outcome to come.... But a lose of 2-1 shows arsenal have really improved after a spell that almost got their current manager fired, big improvement for them hope Manchester united can also catch them after this drop of points.

I think that Manchester City got an undeserved win by 2-1.

In the first half the game of both teams was quite good and even arsenal was able to suppress the manchester city defense, I saw that there were even a few chances created by arsenal players that almost became goals, but after losing Gabriel to a red card, making arsenal game quite bad and even they were very difficult in deciding the attack carried out by manchester city, so the shortage of players forced the arsenal players to be more in defense, I thought the match would end in a draw, but indeed manchester city were lucky enough today because they were able to score a goal in the last minute of added time .
Right now manchester city has strengthened their position with 53 points.

After first half and those 0-3 it was really intresting in the end of the match. Crystal palace was able to score 2 goals in the very end and had a solid chance in the 94th minute. West Ham continues to impress this season and made another big win in an away game.

[dataispower]

West Ham claims three back to back wins.
Five goals interval tonight, as we saw lanzini scoring from the spot kick and another goal, Antonio open the scoring for the hammer's.
A fight back but couldn't secure the draw, an assist from Micheal Olise to The former Celtic Edouard.
