Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

Casemiro was a really good defender and he was fully experienced with so many beast strikers before. Haaland was nothing once casemiro was able to prevent him. That can be seen from the result of the match between manchester united against manchester city. We can see how MU defender was very solid at this moment in preventing haaland from receiving the ball or attacking the goalkeeper. The defenders of manchester united are very solid right now. Pep Guardiola must be thinking about a new way to rebuild his team with another formation.
The problem is now manchester city is facing a decline in its performance. That was making city can also lose in the upcoming match too.

Guardiola always wanted to improve City's defence, but this is very difficult to do when the team spends so much time in attack, in which case there will always be gaps in defense. But City have always focused on attack and this often worked for them, but when Sterling and Jesus were on the team, the team played more productively, now City scores less, but their defense has not improved either. They must beat the wolves, this is not the most dangerous opponent.

Guardiola always wanted to improve City's defence, but this is very difficult to do when the team spends so much time in attack, in which case there will always be gaps in defense.

Defense system of Manchester City is not actually weak. It is supported by their good midfield and attacking as well as too high ball possession in most of matches. I disagree to call their defense is weak because of one or two defeats.

MU's very solid defense was indeed an important point in the match. especially Raphael Varane and Luke Shaw. these two centre-backs made a big contribution in that match.

Surprised to see Ten Hag successfully built up a good defense system for Manchester United and I am more impressed to see Lisandro Martinez was used successfully by Ten Hag. He knows when to use Lisandro best but I am surprised to see how Harry Maguire lost his position in Manchester United entirely like this.

He had a past bad season and this season continues to become a worse one for him. His good performance for England in World Cup 2022 is not enough to lift up his career in the club.

Attack after attack from Manchester City was always successfully thwarted by Raphael Varane and Luke Shaw. besides that, MU's attack line also became more effective in that match. So yes, when MU did become superior on all fronts. But in the next match MU will face Arsenal. And I think we must have mixed thoughts about the outcome of this fight. because of course this will be a very fierce fight.

Bruno Fernandez and Marcus Rashford played better after Cristiano Ronaldo left the club. They have less pressure and demand from Cristiano and they no longer have to share space on field with Cristiano. They are more free to play after that and their performance becomes better.

The only bad point in Manchester United now is Jadon Sancho. Ten Hag has yet successfully to revive Sancho after all but he is still young and has a long contract with United.

Arsenal has outshined the bigger clubs in the league this season excerpt Manchester United, Arsenal has only lose one game this season in the league and they were defeated by Manchester United in their first leg in the league. On Sunday the both team will meet for second leg, it will be a tough game. Arsenal won't let Manchester United to win them home and away, currently Manchester United are in great form, Arsenal has to work extra to defeat them.
If Arsenal won on Sunday, then we can now say their favourite for the title this season. This is premier league very difficult to predict the title favourite with just 19 games played in the league.
But if Arsenal keep this winning mentality till the end, then they will clinch the title after a long time.

After successfully getting full points over Tottenham, Arsenal will face an important test from Man United in the next game. Arsenal must maintain their focus to maintain their level of play against Man United, because Man United is the only team that has managed to beat Arsenal in the Premier League this season.
Man United performance is in the best condition, Ten Hag managed to bring his team to five consecutive wins in the Premier League including when they beat Man City in their last game. Arteta must not be complacent when hosting Man United, dropping points can provide an opportunity for Man City who are trying to catch Arsenal in the EPL title race.

Arsenal, Manchester United match will be a clash of titans. Both teams are at their best performance this time. Arsenal wouldn't like to lose to Manchester United for the second time and Manchester United is not willing to lose a point.

Am anticipating for Arsenal to come out victorious in the match. Let them keep topping Manchester City with points. A point loss is not welcomed at this stage they are against Manchester City and Manchester United. 8 and 9 points difference is not that much if matches are loss

It is not just Liverpool's season just like it is not Chelsea's season. Every club, no matter how big, at some point have a bad season and Liverpool and Chelsea are having it just like Manchester United and Arsenal most especially have had enough. The performance of Liverpool and Chelsea will not remain the same from next season, when the team and the players that they have added become more acclimatized to their team. It is Arsenal's season, just as it is Napoli's season in Italy. If Arsenal can win Manchester United, the only team that has defeated us this season, I believe there will be nothing stopping us from winning this season's premier league and qualifying for the Champions League next season.

Well we're just entering the second half of the season from next game. Arsenal should prepare themselves because the very next games that they're to play determine if they're willing to lift the trophy this season that other teams has been so poor. Arsenal can't be leading the table in a season Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham are in form. They're getting it easier now because this teams has been poor in the first half of the season. Even Manchester city hasn't been there self this season due to the introduction of Haaland.

Although he has scored lots of goals, he's still having a negative impact on the team as Manchester city games are now predictable unlike the days they were playing without no target man. Pep Guardiola better win the champions  league as I understand that was the only reason Haaland was brought into the team.

The only bad point in Manchester United now is Jadon Sancho. Ten Hag has yet successfully to revive Sancho after all but he is still young and has a long contract with United.

Bruno Fernandes in particular really seems to be enjoying the game more in every game after CR7 left MU. at least it has a positive impact on the team. and when talking about Jadon Sancho, it seems that even Erik Ten Hag is confused. Because Sancho has not been able to show good consistency. There was even news that Sancho was threatened with leaving MU. But it seems Sancho is still given the chance until the end of the season. And I personally see that Sancho does have good potential. But I don't know what made Sancho what he is now.

Guardiola definitely will be very disappointed with the team's result from the Manchester derby and will be looking to get back to winning ways in the next fixture. I know Guardiola will not want to lose two games in a row especially now that they have Manchester United and Newcastle United closing on them with just a point away. It is an unfortunate situation for Tottenham and Antonio Conte and I doubt Tottenham will be able to get a win against City in this fixture because Manchester City cannot afford to take any chances against Tottenham.

Indeed, the top 4 positions in the standings this season are very small difference in points, for sure Pep Guardiola will be a headache in the next few matches. After losing in the Manchester derby, Pep Guardiola may have almost no hope of competing to win the EPL championship this season if the club and his players don't improve immediately. The next match is Man City vs Spurs, in my opinion this will be a difficult match for man city, while spurs will definitely try to get points in this match after they previously lost in the north london derby against Arsenal. Most likely the result of this match in my opinion will end in a draw.

While Man United will be against Crystal Palace, it is not certain that this match will be easy for the red devils, Crystal Palace also has a pretty good record against big teams like Man United, even though they previously lost narrowly to Chelsea, it doesn't seem like this will change their perception of the team. big and this match might also be fierce. The top 4 standings is like hell right now.

Arsenal have been getting away from Manchester City in the previous week. Indeed, in terms of performance, Arsenal still performed better even without Gabriel Jesus. indeed Manchester city must be able to improve their performance in the upcoming matches because it will be very important for them to keep the distance in points so they are not further away from Arsenal. Manchester city is indeed getting a tough opponent in the upcoming match because tottenham might be able to provide an interesting surprise at the Etihad stadium.

apart from that manchester united continues to provide very interesting resistance in the top 4. now between ranks 2,3,4 the difference in points is only 1 so there is a high possibility that this week we will see these teams switch places. Will the Ten Hag surprise again? worth the wait.

[_act_]

Am anticipating for Arsenal to come out victorious in the match. Let them keep topping Manchester City with points. A point loss is not welcomed at this stage they are against Manchester City and Manchester United. 8 and 9 points difference is not that much if matches are loss

8 to 10 points is not much but all of them started at 0 points, Arsenal is leading and not showing any form of weakness for now as it also won Tottenham 2 goals without Tottenham able to score just 1 goal in the match. Arsenal and Manchester United match would be a home match for Arsenal and what I think is either the match ended draw or Arsenal would win. But Manchester United next match is tomorrow with Crystal Palace, it is even an awaiting match and this may drive Manchester United point higher if it win the match.

Manchester United currently seems to be better prepared in all matches when left by Ronaldo. Manchester United is playing without a burden and is able to be in 4th place at the moment.

The difference in points is indeed very thin and there will be changes this week. fierce competition with Man City and Newcastle for the top spot. But currently, the top position is still occupied by Arsenal with 47 points.

Currently, Manchester United has an extraordinary attacker and the spearhead of Manchester United, namely Marcus Rashford.

This week is the season for Marcus Rashford to be resurrected, he was able to break into Man City's goal to win the Man United Vs Man City derby.

and for the next match, Manchester United will compete against Crystal Palace on January 19. this will be quite an exciting match. Crystal Palace is also a strong opponent for Manchester United.

Without Ronaldo Manchester United's game is much better, honestly I have to admit it too. Even Maguire, who previously started to lose the trust of his current coach, seems to be gaining confidence again and is in the main line-up in several matches so far. Turns out it was Ronaldo who was the problem, but before that people never wanted to admit it.

After the World Cup, Manchester United was absolutely mighty for every opponent. It is proven that they won 7/7 matches so far in the EFL Cup, FA Cup and Premier League. Great and I guess that's how it form right now.

Wout Weghorst may be getting his first debut when Manchester United visit away to Selhurst Park Stadium. Weghorst is a good addition to the team when Anthony Martial starts to fall into doubt.

The match with Crystal Palace becomes trickier for Man United because they also have to think about facing the Gunners a few days later. Arsenal players are also better rested at that point so Erik ten Hag has to shuffle his squad well to compete. It will be a good job for him if MU can get at least 4 points against these two teams.

That gap is not so big if arsenal will always lose in the upcoming match and what about when arsenal will be only winning the upcoming match? that gap seems pretty impossible to be surpassed by manchester city and united. This time arsenal was also trying to add more ammunition to make sure it can pass the rest of the matches in EPL until the end of the season. I think that's gonna be a difficult thing for city or MU to surpass arsenal and take EPL title for this season.
Im sure that pep was hoping if arsenal will be starting to struggle with its performance in EPL. The way become even harder once arsenal keeps winning the next match.

If United win over Crystal Palace, Manchester United will displace Manchester City from second place, before Pep Guardiola's side host Tottenham Hotspur a day later. And I'm sure that if you look at Manchester United's recent performance, they will definitely be able to beat Crystal Palace, and get full points and can also overtake Manchester City to become second in the standings.
and if you win, this will be the spirit of Manchester United against Arsenal in the next match, this will be a match that is difficult to predict and also very interesting to watch because anything can happen unexpectedly.

Erik ten hag's role was extraordinary as a Manchester United coach, the successive wins he got were the result of the hard work of the coaches, staff and players involved. At the moment it is very difficult to imagine a very thin difference in points, but if one of these teams slips up in the next match, of course it is an opportunity for the other team to widen the gap and if one continues to win, of course, it will be able to continue to stick to the arsenal in the hunt for the EPL championship season. this.

I think Manchester United should at least win against Crystal Palace later, otherwise they will find it even more difficult because their opponent next week will be the leaders of the standings Arsenal. Erik ten hag will be thinking hard in their upcoming 2 matches.

I think 8 points for the EPL is a lot because indeed last season we were shown with high competition so seeing this now especially this is Arsenal which even in the last few seasons has always struggled clearly this is something different.
Currently Arsenal still have the opportunity to keep their distance even though it is still in a big match for them but with their current condition and high confidence even though Manchester City has the chance to win 3 points but Arsenal also have the same chance to get full points with Manchester United

The game against Arsenal shouldn't be a burden for them, Manchester United just have to focus on their nearest game. Don't think about anything but focusing on their game against Crystal Palace. If they are burdened with the match against Arsenal which will still take place after this week, then they will not be able to use all their abilities in this match. Precisely this is a moment for them to prepare themselves better before the match against Arsenal takes place.

So far, Arsenal are unassailable leaders in the standings... Of course the odds on their win is high 2.0 because this is a very important game for both Arsenal and Man U... But I think Man U do not play well away matches and therefore Arsenal will win...

You shall not feel worried about that. Im sure that ten hag has been preparing it so well. I guess MU can play with the second squads. ten hag can also try to prepare the main squad to face arsenal. The match against arsenal must become the main focus by manchester united at this moment. Crystal palace was an easy opponent and that;s why using the second squad against it will not be a big problem at all. I expect MU to get all points from two matches and that will be around 6 points in total.

Turns out it was Ronaldo who was the problem, but before that people never wanted to admit it.

Honestly, Manchester United has consistency performance and 100% winning trend after leaving by Cristiano Ronaldo, its seems Manchester United not facing problem due losing Cristiano Ronaldo and not finding new replacement for his position. After international break out, Erik Tan Hag made several composition change and Harry Maguire is not priority on center defender.

Manchester United have won 7 match all competition and last winner at Manchester derby seems have difference performance for Manchester United, I sure the winning record from Manchester United will extended for several match later and has potential break out to 2nd Primer League standing due few points left on current position right now

[LFC_Bitcoin]

Man City vs Wolves & Arsenal vs Man Utd in the title race this weekend. Man City really should beat Wolves comfortably at home but the other game has the potential to be a titanic battle. Arsenal are white hot at the moment but Ten Hag has United playing well & creeping into the title race. Should be a great watch @ The Emirates.

I personally have admitted it for a long time even when Manchester United failed to win when playing in the European League, which in fact at that time Ronaldo was playing more often in the European League to become the starting lineup. Since then I admit that Ronaldo no longer has a big influence on team performance, especially when Ronaldo's behavior is not good.
At least incidents or cases like that make me very sure that Manchester United no longer needs Ronaldo in their squad, and now it has been proven and become a reality they are more able to play as a team.
