Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Raflesia]

In this case maybe not only you and I are quite difficult to accept the final result but many of us feel the same way.
City's defeat was completely unexpected and it is one of the unlucky ones in football. Even though they were very favored in this match, their performance, even though they dominated the match, did not really apply when two goals from Brentford nestled in their goal.

Many people must have been sorely disappointed by the results of Man City's defeat, moreover, Man City is one of the top teams competing against Arsenal. Not only that, Man City has Halland and also a strong team squad and a dominant game. However, the final result of losing to Brentford made a deep disappointment. Brentford is a medium club, but this time they made it difficult for Man City to lose at home.\

On the other hand, Chelsea was also unable to beat Newcastle at home to Newcastle with a final score of 1-0. This defeat made Chelsea never get a win even once in the last 5 EPL matches. Only 3 losses and 2 draws. they've been pretty bad lately. Not only against big clubs but also small clubs, they were not able to perform at their best. Chelsea's performance has been really bad this season.

Well, it's really unfortunate when they have the upper hand and are still able to maintain performance and maintain a point margin with Arsenal, in fact they have to experience defeat.
As for Chelsea, many have said that they had a hard time facing Newcastle since before the game and I wasn't too surprised by the result they received, I'm grateful that my bet at 2.60 odds paid off for City

Quite a way to go for Manchester United. They didn't play a very good game but had the win they so longed for. You can tell Ten Hag was furious  with the way his team was coming but in the last minute when all hope seemed lost, Alejandro Garnacho who just came on as a substitute for Anthony Martial found the back of the net.
Manchester United were that close to sharing points or even loosing the game and that last minute goal was such a relief for the team.
Ayer loosing there last league game in the EPL, they managed to collect all 3 points in this game, there last match before the world cup break. A break through Ten Hag and the rest of the team needs for the world cup.

Ten Hag also has to blame in the game. He started a weak team, Malacia at right back almost back fired, united should look for alternative right back. Elanga starting was also catastrophic he didn't provide anything tangible at the left flank. Rashford should never have been on the right flank he look lost. And lastly united need a center forward.

Fulham were hard done again by late goals but there overall play was fantastic. Pahlinah was my man of the match until that late goal

[BIT-BENDER]

Well this is probably the first match this season I have to say Manchester United played their best. They really proved they are a solid team.
Fulham is not a team I would be scared of  but today as in some big matches they have played they gave a good game.

Manchester United went  goal up but Fulham came back with an equalizer and held the game for a very long time .
Until the young start whose idol is Cristiano Ronaldo has to come to Manchester United rescue with a very late equalizer .

[nara1892]

Once again Alejandro Garnacho was able to contribute to Manchester United's victory in a very interesting match shown by both teams. Coming on as a substitute he was able to play well and scored one goal to give victory to Manchester United after maybe most people thought this game would end in a draw.
I applaud this player who continues to improve and give the best game for the team. Previously he also made a big contribution to Manchester United's victory when they beat Aston Villa in the EFL by contributing 2 assists and at that time he also played as a substitute.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Leeds United
It was a great game from both teams and in this match I recorded some points like Kulusevski's arrival after injury really changed the attack from Tottenham Hotspur here because if we see there are several Tottenham goals starting from the movement of this player.
On the other hand I also saw Leeds playing very well in this match, they even managed to score the first goal even though it was equalized 3 times by Tottenham and Bentancur really became a savior with 2 goals in 2 minutes (81 & 83 minutes).

[snipie]

EPL games temporarily ended with the international break starting, with ManU and Aston Villa precious victories.
Villa particularly made a good job picking 3 points from Brighton in an away game!
Until now, Arsenal and Newcastle are the best teams that made a good surprise this season. At the opposite, Liverpool and Chelsea made a bad surprise so far with so many points missed. ManU, Spurs are fluctuating as usual and City made some mistakes that allowed gunners to get 5 points advantage from them.

[Rruchi man]

Manchester United got a great win. They badly needed this win, which would go a long way in adding to their points. Also they played well enough. The team's midfielders have shown great skill. Everyone in the team played with responsibility.

Regular Fulham, becoming a characteristic of the team, that they are always unable to defend their goals and always conceding in the last minutes...Same way Manchester City scored a late winning goal against them is same way Manchester United has scored them. Fulham to me is a terrible team the way they play. I don't like their strategy. I was convinced even before the game started that Manchester United will win, it looked highly unlikely at some point, but Garnacho made it happen. He is quickly becoming a favorite in old Trafford, I see him becoming the future of the club if he doesn't leave.

[ILuckyGuyI]

Emery effect is going on. Aston Villa got another win this time against Brighton in an away game. Honestly Brighton were quite the favourite for the win. But I believe that bookmakers underestimated Aston Villa too much. Because there wasn't a big point difference between these teams and Aston Villa started to be on the rise with Emery's arrival here. I predicted a 2-1 Aston Villa win in the PL pool on the forum. Now I wish I bet on it as well. In fact my score prediction on the Fulham - Manchester United game also won. I can't imagine how much the total odd would be if I combined these in a betslip. 

Congrats to Manchester United also as they got a really tough win. Honestly the game was nearly ending in a draw if it weren't for Garnacho. He just entered the game in the 72nd minute and became the hero. 

[Mr.right85]

Aston Villa were hardly the favourites but, they made good use of there chances and went ahead to defend them. Brighton sort of saved there best game tricks for last, only coming yo pressure after Danny Ings had down the damage with a second goal and the team was determined to hold it till the final whistle goes and they did.
Aston Villa were so determined to have this win that, that in the whole team, at least 7 players including there goalkeeper had a yellow card. Most of which came from there effort to delay the ball and little provocations of conflict.

Brighton just didn't do enough and it was a shame for them haven't won some of the top teams in the league, comes now to lose in a home game for an away side Aston Villa.

[terrorJR]

The second half of the match has started now and the score is still the same as in the first half.
To be honest, this match looks monotonous in my opinion, but in terms of gameplay, Aston Villa is actually still quite good compared to Brighton in terms of opportunities.

Just 5monutes after making this post, a second goal came in for Aston Villa. Goal by Danny Ings again from a build up that started from Matty Cash's Cross and Emiliano Buendia had a go at it with a good header which comes off the post to Douglas Luiz and then Danny Ings, dribbled his way to take his chance and a slight deflection made it find its way into the net.

I really don't see enough reason why Robert Sanchez shouldn't get a save from Danny Igns second goal. Yeah, it might have been slightly deflected within a close range but Robert Sanchez was right there to collect, the ball was slow and a little stretch was all it needed to prevent the ball from his net. He could have made that stretch but acted relax and disappointed by the deflection.

Now the game is over and as I said before Aston Villa's gameplay is much better than Brighton's.
Dany Ings was the hero in this game even though in terms of ball possession they lost a lot but the counter-attack they carried out was clearly very good and Brighton couldn't stop it.
Emery has once again made Aston Villa better than the previous Gerrard era.
With this result they are really away from the relegation zone that always haunts them.

[SatoPrincess]

Wolves is such a difficult team but somehow, Arsenal still amanaged it to get 3 points in this fixture. That's what makes them the best fit and ready to take this league. The team is in such an amazing morale and the rhythm of the players harmonise so much that puts them ahead of any other team in the league.

Before the start of the match between Arsenal and Wolves, I already know that it will an easy win for the Arsenal football club irrespective of Wolve's home advantage. Wolves have only won 2matches since the beginning of the premier league season and they are in 20th position in the relegation zone.

Am not in doubt about Arsenal winning the title. Arsenal is changing to a stronger and undefeatable club. The only club in the premier league with young squads averaging 23 years old. Their level of commitment and passion in matches is second to none. They are giving us a sensational football match to watch every week. Go on Arsenal to win the EPL title to prove doubters wrong

Surely the game was to be won by Arsenal but I always expect the unexpected in the premier league, even small teams are capable of inflicting pains on top teams in the premier league. Arsenal have been very impressive especially for a team fielding young players averaging 23 years of age. Indeed Arteta is doing a great job since joining this Arsenal side in just three seasons. Even if they do not get league title this season, they are sure to make it to the champions league next season.

[DanWalker]

Liverpool formation actually changed to 4-3-3 and Firmino as central forward and Nunez filled left winger position, not any changed with Liverpool starting eleven opponent Southampton and three points achievement is needed if want take top position standing before international FIFA World Cup break out. Salah keep filled the usual position as right winger side and have little changed on midfielder area where Jordan Henderson not include in line up listed. Have many changed formation use by Klopp after several main player get injured, actually Nunez is not winger side position but after Luis Diaz injured Klopp have moved Nunez become winger player.

But it looks like Klopp managed to concoct this strategy by winning 3-1 against Southampton. Darwin Nunez also managed to score 2 goals in this match, in my opinion it's not bad to fill Luis Diaz's position. Maybe in the future Klopp will apply a formation like this when some of his players are absent when injured.

Compared to previous matches, Liverpool's performance against Southampton was mixed. They played well and won. Liverpool's performance has improved in the last few matches. They have managed to beat strong teams like Napoli and Tottenham. And in the last match, they also won against Southampton.
Even so, I'd say Liverpool's performance is completely erratic. I don't think Liverpool can maintain that consistency after the World Cup break. They will lose the truck again. Liverpool still has a lot of weaknesses within the team.

I honestly think that Liverpool is improving. But surely they are getting better. A lot of people thought that Klopp might get sacked. But right now I don’t think that is going to happen. Things are improving for Liverpool. Now Liverpool got two back-to-back wins.

And yes, I agree that none of those were actually very convincing but a win is a win. And I think it is just simply because the players in Liverpool were not able to perform at their best. But at the same time, I am not going to say that all the problems of Liverpool have been solved. They are still going through that improvement phase and they still have a lot more to do to get back on the top of the table.

Aston Villa played well to secure the victory. Congratulations to them, as well as their players are improving day by day which is driving their team forward. Today's match was important for Aston Villa.

[Pulsar77]

Maybe Manchester United got the win after a really challenging match. But things can't go on like this for them if they really want success in the future. For example, there are still huge problems in their attacking line. Rashford and Martial were just really bad today. They don't have the luxury of wasting this many absolute goal chances. The team were relying on their finishing skills most of the time. Their clumsiness just made things more difficult for the team to get the win.

Maybe Manchester United need an experienced and productive scorer now. Like Harry Kane I mean. But it is difficult for them to make this transfer happen in January of course. They will need to wait for the summer. However they won't be the only team after him most probably. If Bayern Munich join the race then Manchester United's chance might decrease too much. But it depends on whether Kane would like to stay in England.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Leeds United
It was a great game from both teams and in this match I recorded some points like Kulusevski's arrival after injury really changed the attack from Tottenham Hotspur here because if we see there are several Tottenham goals starting from the movement of this player.
On the other hand I also saw Leeds playing very well in this match, they even managed to score the first goal even though it was equalized 3 times by Tottenham and Bentancur really became a savior with 2 goals in 2 minutes (81 & 83 minutes).

Honestly I was surprised to see Leeds playing well I mean they played without burden even as a away team must be appreciated
At first I thought Tottenham would lose but luck was on their side 2 goals scored in 3 minutes it's not something easy
We were also surprised by the defeats of Manchester City and Chelsea  

[gabbie2010]

It seems that Manchester City with this yesterday's defeat has lost all chances for the title and they can no longer catch up with their opponent. 5 points is a pretty big handicap and if subsequent games develop in a similar scenario, then everything is lost for Manchester City. Arsenal this season shows just a great and stable game. A little more than half of the matches are still ahead and this team can't relax if they want to get the cup of this season. Don't miss this chance, cannoneers.

Arsenal managed to increase their lead to 5 points, which is significant, but I think it's too early to say that City are out of the game. The end of last season for Guardiola was really difficult, they had a hard time keeping the lead, if something like this happens this season, which is quite possible, since City have sold many players, then we will see something similar this season and Arsenal will become champions.

I really do not think that it is safe to say that Manchester City does not have any chance to get to the first position on the table. I know that Arsenal is five points ahead of Manchester City right now, but considering the fact that they lost the Champions League position in their last match to Tottenham the last season, I do still trust that anything can happen.

And if Manchester City cannot improve from where they are right now, I think the job of Guardiola is under serious threat. It was supposed to be an improvement this season. But things are going in the opposite direction for Manchester City right now.

Both Arsenal and Man City will play each other in a decisive oustanding match that game will determine whether Arsenal will be the  potential title contender, a win for Arsenal pushes them to 8 points ahead of Man City thus brighten their chances of winning the league it will pretty  difficult for other clubs to close that gap considering their consistent in league with just a loss  however a loss against Man City reduces the gap to 2 points invariably open up the opportunity for both clubs to clinch the title, though with just 14 and 15 matches played it's too early to predict the likely winner.

[bekti3]

Garnacho after scoring the winning goal for Manchester United against Fulham, seems no stranger to this celebration. Yes, this is the GOAT celebration of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. Garnacho has often been the winner for Manchester United, be it the English Premier League or the Europa League, Erik ten Hag must often give playing minutes for Garnacho and not be seen as just a Supersub. Next season, if Garnacho can be consistent in every appearance, it is not impossible that he will win the next Golden Boy award.

Again and again this young man managed to bring United to 3 Points and of course there are other compliments about him at the moment.
Suffice to agree with you that he should be given plenty of time to play and Ten Hag is already doing that.
Looks like he's been given a lot of opportunities now and that means his attitude is starting to improve now because we know one of the reasons he's rarely given time is about discipline issues that aren't very good.

In the Brighton vs Aston Villa match I expected Brighton to win. Because Brighton have played very well in the last few matches. They have won against strong teams like Chelsea and Arsenal. So in today's match also I thought they can get full points against Aston Villa. But unfortunately in this match they lost 2-1. Aston Villa's performance was good enough. At the same time they were very similar. They managed to break Brighton's strong defence.

It can be the effect of a new coach, same way Chelsea were winning when a new coach joined them and now, they are having a difficult time, I perceive that Aston villa cannot keep this up, but overall, it is a great way to go into the break for the world cup, hoping that the players who go to represent their country return back safely and with this same team spirit. These few games they have played under this new coach will give him an idea of the best strategy to use for the rest of the season, things to change, and things to improve on for his team Aston villa.

With all the chaos and struggles the Chelsea team had to go through I think it's now coming to take effect on the mindset and performance of the team

With the recent event going on with RUSSIA which led to the nation been sanctioed by different  international bodies resultsing to the forcefully selling of the Russian owner club side (Chelsea)

Has brought many ups and downs to the club side.

I think another event that led to the poor performance of the club is the sacking of their coach and the inability of the new coach to unite these players and perform..

Chelsea has been performing very poorly and if they continue like this I don't think there are even going to make the top 4 by the end of the season

The sacking of Thomas Thuchel was the start of the Chelsea disaster. Now fans are starting to voice their dissatisfaction with Potter's performance. Three consecutive defeats and slumping position in the standings is something very bad for the Blues squad. Instead of wanting to be a champion challenger, now Chelsea's level has dropped drastically. Chelsea's management must immediately take the right policy if they don't want to see their team sink deeper.

I will continue preaching Chelsea made a mistake of sacking Thomas Tuchel because in my opinion Tuchel was a good match for Chelsea, I believe he understood the team perfectly and just need a little adjustment and changes to get the team back to good form. I can't pinpoint what has gone wrong with Potter, he started well but has gone down to losing 4 games in a roll now. The fans are already panicking and asking questions with doubt for what Potter has to offer in the club.
