Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Dewi Aries]

Manchester City has regained second place in the Premier League standings after winning against Leeds last night, but in the next match Manchester City will face Everton and Newcastle will meet Leeds, these two clubs will still be looking for points and don't want to lose points to be in second place in the standings.

Manchester City has 1 matches left compared with newcastle, this is an important advantage for City to keep the point gap with Arsenal. And this is also a bad thing for Newcastle because currently the points with City are 2 points away, if the next game City wins, it means the point gap with City is 5 points. However, in my opinion, newcastle still needs time to become a strong team with a winning mentality.

Yes for the Premier League title it is not yet time for Newcastle they need one more season to prepare even for 2nd place I'm not sure yet
I know anything can happen like what Leicester City did a few years ago but somehow I'm still not sure especially if Haaland is still playing in the Premier League.

[bitcampaign]

Newcastle has a good chance this season having won 8 games out of the 9 matches is something way good enough to rank Newcastle on the top 3 leaders board on the premier league table thos season.
Unlike the last season where Newcastle's performance was underrated due to their poor performance.

We better start taking Newcastle United seriously. They are taking no prisoners. They are gradually arriving. The competition in the EPL is becoming stiffer. I see them as a big team and playing against them, you’ll have to come good and convert your chances when playing against this Newcastle side. They’re going to win Leeds United in their next game to extend the wins.

it seems that Leeds is not a difficult opponent for newcastle but they also don't underestimate their opponent, Leeds will not lose their points in the match later, moreover newscastle also continues to compete at the top of the standings with manchester city and arsenal

Look at Haaland, he is young, only 22 years old but he has scored 181 goals, nearly 200 goals. Will Haaland scores enough 1000 goals before his retirement?

Mbappe is 24 years old but has only 222 goals, not too much more than Haaland.

It's not that easy. We are talking about scoring about 50 goals per year for like 15 years or so to reach that 1000 goals mark, and I highly doubt that it would be possible. It is not even enough, 180 goals, plus 50 goals per year for 15 years means 750 goals, that is not even 1000 goals to be fair. I am guessing that we are not going not going to see it.

And reaching what Messi and Ronaldo did is not easy, it doesn't just require to be a top player no matter how old you are, it is obvious that you would need to be scoring 50+ goals even when you are 35 years old as well, and you have to be not get any big injuries for the next 15 years and keep being consistently this good. I am sorry but that doesn't feel possible to me.

I think its really hard for both players to perform at such a good level for such a long time. To score 50+ goals per year is really hard and both players werent close yet but with them playing in the best teams in the world i think they will reach im upcoming year 50 or more goals per season

Liverpool are finally back strong in the Premier League. Now their next game is going to be against Leicester. Leicester are in a pretty bad shape these days unfortunately. I was really hopeful about them to continue on their recovery process but they were not like on the field against Newcastle. This is another very tough game for them because I expect Liverpool to have the full control of the game in Anfield.

I'm expecting a win by 2 goals for Liverpool. They did it against Aston Villa and they can do this in this one as well. There have been some very competitive games between them and Leicester recently though. But I still believe in Liverpool about this.

[Ryu_Ar1]

His breakthrough in his first season was really difficult to stop. 20 goals in 14 matches is definitely not a joke because this is definitely a threat to several big clubs who are chasing the title now.
Haaland continues to be impressive in every game he runs and with this it is not impossible that several records will be created this season, including the record for the most goals scored in one Premier League season currently held by three players. They are Andy Cole, Alan Shearer and Mohamed Salah with 34 goals.
Currently, there are only 14 goals that Haaland has to score to replace that record.

Erling Haaland would break the record because fourteen goals is no big deal to him. It is only injury that can stop him from breaking this record.s of these three Premier League legends. He is just fantastic and it seems the EPL suits him perfectly. He would have scored more goals against Leeds but he wasted some great opportunities.
Arsenal is currently in very good shape but a little distraction might make them lose the title. They need to keep reinforcing their squad with new players in case of fatigue or injuries.

With the condition of the league that is still quite long and with the goal ratio that Haaland has, this is actually not a difficult thing for him, but indeed injuries can come at any time.
Last season in the bundesliga he didn't do very well due to his leg which was a bit fragile but now he is very good at keeping his leg from getting injured and it will be very good if in the next few matches that will take place he doesn't find himself in a situation that is not favorable for him.

With the current conditions it is not difficult for Newcastle, especially with their brilliant record so far this season.
But on the other hand, actually Leeds also has a pretty good defense and that was seen in the first 45 minutes against Manchester City, it's just that they sometimes always make unexpected mistakes which make this a loss for them.
This should be an easy win.

Well, it's tool early to say for Liverpool. I've been disappointed by them on so many counts and so, I won't get hopes high for them. They certainly played better against Aston Villa and beating them from a home side was a good one.

Leicester on the other hand were just bad and bad. Newcastle did run them down and had the upper hand at every play. The little they had at the game was when J. Vardy came on. The Nigerian boys in the person of W. Ndidi also did his bit but, I can't say the same for K. Iheanacho as he wasn't really being very protective of his ball and getting the right touches. I hope to see more from Newcastle still, they've been so good this season.

As for the Liverpool Vs Leicester City fixtures, I hope there lose @Leicester City would help te put up a good fight because, Klopp is surely going to have his guns out to give sme respect to his ground at Anfield.

Against Westham Arsenal played very well and didn't give much space to the Westham players so the Arsenal team excelled and managed to win the match, Arsenal's next match against Brigthon in that match I favored the Arsenal team to come out victorious because now if we look at the mentality of the Arsenal players it is very strong when going through matches and even I'm sure Arteta has prepared a good strategy so as not to be beaten by the Brigthon team for the third time.

Arsenal have been placed as the seed before the match against West Ham begins. The squad depth that Arsenal and West Ham have is very much different, moreover Arsenal is very motivated to win matches to keep their distance from their rivals. Manchester City and Newcastle continue to chase Arsenal, Arteta will continue to try to make players always give their best performances.
On the one hand I expect Arsenal to lose and Manchester City and Newcastle to win so that the competition at the top of the Premier League will be even more exciting.

Indeed in this case despite the absence of Gabriel Jesus in their squad but they are favorites in the game against Westham. At the moment they are still having a bit of trouble with their tight schedule and with the several matches they will face against this big team it will obviously be a bit of a hassle.
In January there will be 4 matches and 3 of them can be said to be big matches because they will face Newcastle, Tottenham and Manchester United.

[Docnaster]

Tottenham did well to have ended the game in a draw, it wasn't easy. This is the challenge most teams like Chelsea and Liverpool are currently facing. The ability to maintain a good play even after falling a goal or more goals behind. I give this accolade to Pep Guardiola, he's the only coach with a good playing record in such a condition.
If one should compare Tottenham's last match to Chelsea's, it is undeniable that Tottenham will equalize or probably win the match against Chelsea if they were 2 goals behind like it was for Bournemouth. With the current look of things, I think Antonio Conte will win a position in the top 4 before the end of this season.

[Joca97]

This should be an easy win.

I think Newcastle will continue this streak for at least one more round. They have an easy match against a weak opponent and i think Leeds dont stand a chance in this match. Man City also has another easy match at home and it is expected at top of the table that there wont be any changes after this round.

Having a good player doesn't mean you can be a champion. To become a champion, you have to play the team game well, just a few talented football players are not enough for this job. We know Haaland is one of the best players in the world, but I think he is still young and there will be times when we will play better.
Even now, he manages to break many records despite this young age

Erling Haaland has proven his best quality so far, he has scored 29 goals in 14 matches in the English league, the away game to Leeds United was not so difficult for Manchester City, it can be seen from the statistics that the two games are quite unequal. Despite appearing in front of their own audience, Leeds United were unable to put significant pressure on Manchester City and on the other hand, Pep Guardiola's men managed to appear impressive. Illan Meslier performed quite well in that match, even though his team lost he managed to make six outstanding saves in this match.

A goal by Rodri, two goals by Erling Haaland and two assists by Jack Grealish completed Manchester City's away win in Week 15 of the second season, as well as putting them back in second place and five points adrift of Arsenal at the top of the standings

Erling Haaland is a beast in the attack for Manchester, his presence on the pitch alone delivers enough scare to the opponents defense. 181 goals at age 22 is such an outstanding record, I have no doubts he can make the 1000 goals mark before he becomes 34 and start thinking of retiring. I think both Erling Haaland and Mbappe have the qualities to do create things in football and create so many individual records before retirement.

With the current look of things, I think Antonio Conte will win a position in the top 4 before the end of this season.

Even if they are 1 point better, in fact they are very favorite to win and this is still a loss for them because with this 1 point they are now only 1 point away from Manchester United which incidentally has 1 game remaining that can still be played.
If this condition is not immediately corrected by Conte then this will be a problem for them especially in January there will be Manchester City and Arsenal who are ready for them to face.

No doubt Arsenal has outstanding results this season, but we can't conclude already that they will be able to overthrow Brighton even Though they are currently in form. If we should analyze the match from records, Brighton has defeated Manchester United twice this season, first on 7th May, and second on 7th August. Secondly, a clash with Brighton this season has never been easy for England's top teams like Chelsea, man united, man city, And Liverpool, but let's see if the case will be different for Arsenal, but until then, we mustn't underrate Brighton.

Brighton is a strong team, they have good ambitions to compete so they have never been underestimated by any team in the Premier League. So far Brighton have won 7 out of 15 matches, they also beat Arsenal in the EFL Cup so it is very unlikely for Arsenal to underestimate Brighton. Arsenal in the best scuad is very interesting to watch, their gameplay is good and I really like their game. Arteta has really done a great job this season for Arsenal, he seems to have established himself as successful in finding the true form of Arsenal.

For the match against Brighton, I think Arsenal will also win. But considering that Brighton is playing at home, Arsenal must be careful not to go home without  point in hand. But again, Arsenal are favorites for 3 points in that match, I'm sure about that.

I don't think Mikel Arteta will be willing to take such a risk by underrating Brighton in their next fixture. Brighton have proven to be a tough opponent this season. I think even the Arsenal players know this fact and will give everything within their power to get the best outcome from that game. Brighton are a strong side and they will also come with the mindset to get a win I reckon it will be a tough game for Arsenal.

EPL resumed fast with the next round just starting in less than 24 hours with Liverpool - Leicester and West Ham - Brentford.
Classically, Liverpool and West Ham are favourites. Leicester is no longer good since the beginning of the season so I won't expect much from them. Brentford showed some resistance vs top teams like a draw recently vs Spurs, a surprising victory vs City, so this match particularly is challenging.

That's right, both are doing really great so far and without doubt the next race will be between halaand and mbappe, maybe they don't have messi potential but they can beat many records in term of scoring goals especially halaand, for a long time we didn't see a striker with such potential

[Pokapoka124]

I don't see any disruption to Manchester City's performance. Rather, I see a lot of improvement in their performance now than before in the World Cup. Halland is performing as before, he managed to score two goals in today's match. Manchester City's XI is really strong.

Manchester City were not as sharp as usual yesterday, likewise Erling Haaland, even despite the fact that the team managed to score three goals, whilst the Norwegian got two for himself. Erling missed quite a lot of chances yesterday and he didn't look his usual self, even with his ball control and first touches, they weren't clicking, he definitely wasn't at his best, if he was he could easily have scored 5/6 yesterday. His manager and even the player himself reiterated the same thing, but i guess he will get back to his normal predator style sooner rather than later.

Having said that, i have been watching City all season in the EPL, and i am not yet convinced about them, many people who don't watch their games only see the victories, but many times this season City look vulnerable, the good thing for them is they are still very close to the top of the table, and they can get into perfect gear at anytime; Arsenal indeed have a real chance to be champions, but City are serial winners and they can turn everything on its head at any moment.

Manchester city were sloppy in the first 40 minutes of the game, they gave Leeds United enough room to play and cause problems for them, luckily they were able to find the back of the net before half time. I guess the goal gave them the much confidence they were lacking in the first half and came back to score two more goals. Haaland once again showed why Manchester City went against all odds to get him.

Arsenal had better be careful this week. It is a more challenging fixture against Brighton. I know that Brighton don't have Potter anymore and they have been in a phase to adapt to the new manager for some time. But their general results so far have been quite decent. The Southampton victory must also be a big help for them to concentrate on the Arsenal game more.

Brighton have good statistics against Arsenal in home games considering the head-to-head games in this stadium in the Premier League. We will see if they will be able to use this as an advantage somehow. But Arsenal's extraordinary performance is really hard to stop now.

Brighton's condition was still not completely stable when Potter left them, but they are still a dark horse and indeed Arsenal must be wary of Brighton's play, especially for their midfield.
But I still feel this will be an advantage for Arsenal because their young players are actually very good in midfield and attack even if it is an away game Arsenal will still be favourites.

Hey y'all....
the fact that Leeds lost to Man city isn't something to argue about as we all know that leeds aren't a match to city. Look at a team like ajax, they had alot of Crazyheaded stars that helped to push the club's performances until when they were given out, some on loans and mostly on sales too. Leeds doesn't have much problem with their attackers, it's about the defenders... We all know that city won't waste any time when they get on the ball; all they do is keep their eyes open for the ball, and when it comes, they push forward for a counter , it's that simple.
Even before the game started, I knew Leeds won't survive city even for a the half-time... That's not the case here with Newcastle tomorrow. I don't think they'll lose for the second time which would automatically give Newcastle some points against arsenal.....well, let's look up for it.

This should be an easy win.

The blunders from the players can't be predicted. The good thing to is manchester city was able to converting some chance into the goals. Haaland is always beast. I do like this guy played in the best league in the world. It makes opponent scary to play against manchester city. Im so glad to see that if city was doing so well. The most interesting match gonna be after city against everton. I meant city will be facing chelsea two times in a row.
This gonna be a very good match to be watched and then city will be facing MU. The blues will have a very big wall to be passed. City may able to get full points from the blues
