Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Dewi Aries]

Given Arsenal’s squad and it’s lack of depth, I would be scared for the injuries they might get if they do care for the FA Cup. Maybe they need to go full squad in this particular FA cup tie against Manchester city, apart from that there is no reason to prioritise a trophy they have won numerous times instead of the Premier League. They have won the FA so many times since they moved to the emirates. I think it’s time to look at the other trophies for once, would be nice to get Europa league before they are back in the Champions league next season.

Arsenal are actually quite comfortable in the standings and have enough points I mean they still have time to hunt for another Trophies
But yes the coach understands  what the team needs for that we cannot predict how they will play in the future match including when they have to fight Manchester City in the FA CUP.

Chelsea can't risk playing defensively against Fulham not after losing their first leg away, If they do they will welcome more attacks from the visiting team. Chelsea has a strong chance of winning the second leg at Stamford Bridge if they attack aggressively. Both teams had equal strength in their first meeting and Chelsea been the home team this time can capitalise on  their stadium advantage to take a lead with three points over Fulham

I doubt Chelsea has been on the defensive side this season, we have always been attacking and that's why it was easier for teams to get wins over us once they get the ball from us since we're not defensively strong. Against Fulham, we'll be attacking as well. I doubt graham Potter goes defensive after acquiring all the talents he has gotten this transfer window. If he goes defensive especially against the smaller clubs he should be ready to absorb the backlash that'll be coming his way.

With Felix, Mudryk, Fofana etc, we shouldn't be defending. The last time I think Chelsea were playing defensively was when Reece James and Chilwel was actively fit and even then we were good offensively as well as the wingback joined in the attack when the team was attacking. I expect the team to come out victories against Fulham, a draw isn't acceptable.

Tomorrow Arsenal will play against Manchester City in the FA Cup match which of course this will be very interesting, because if Arsenal manage to beat Manchester City in this match then that is an extraordinary achievement. Because if Arsenal win this match then Arsenal have managed to beat two Manchesters in a row, and maybe that will be a historical record as well.
I hope that a winning result for Arsenal can happen in this match, because of course it will be the perfect result for Arsenal in this season and in this moment.

This will be a very interesting game, I'm sure this match pairing had been widely anticipated this season and for the first time both teams will be meeting in the FA cup. Arteta feels confident about this fixture, I am also believing both teams will give their best and go for win. The outcome will determine the odds of who will be premier league champions.

Who else thinks that Marcos Rashford is in line to be the best player in the world if it was going to be judge from first of January. He has been in smoking form and has even made Manchester United season come alive.

I believe that the would win the carabao cup but it won’t be easy because Newcastle has also been in great form this season.

Without a doubt, Rashford’s form has been instrumental in the team's current standing in the league table. Certainly if he continues playing at this level for the rest of the season he will be listed for one of the best players in Europe this year. Winning the Carabao cup this season is achievable, I believe Manchester United can defeat Newcastle.

Arsenal may not be able to win Manchester City because Guardiola knows too well that he is loosing the Premier League title to Arsenal. I expect him to feature stronger legs in order to eliminate Arsenal from FA Cup.
If they lose out to Arsenal in Fa Cup, they may also lose out to Arsenal in the main league which will be very abnormal.

This depends on how the strategy and players are deployed I think.
Because indeed we still can't even be sure whether the two of them will appear by risking everything or will just make this as a sideline and give more time to the reserve players.
It's not without reason, the more they schedule matches, the more likely they are to falter due to fatigue so that this can have repercussions for other competitions.

it's too risky for Arteta to use second squad to play this game, believing that he has the league title. Every cup in the league is worth fighting for with everything. Both club are in good shape and am expecting an interesting and exciting game tonight. Manchester city will prove that they're premier league leader for the past ten years. The FA cup is very important cup in the league, if you can't win the league,you fight to win the FA cup.

Personally I think Manchester City squad is stronger than Arsenal. Also comparing the squad shows that Manchester City have more stars and experienced players in their squad than Arsenal. However, due to errors in a few matches, Manchester City have dropped points and are now second in the table. But with Haaland, Arsenal's attack is very strong. And so City looks like my favorite against Arsenal. However, I doubt whether these two teams will take the FA Cup match seriously.

Man City is only 5 points behind Arsenal and many admit that Man City has a superior team compared to the Arsenal team. in fact I think Arsenal are just lucky to be able to steal points from Man City and be ranked first in the English league.
and in my opinion it won't last long Man city will reclaim the first place in the standings, because Man City has excellent players who are ready to break through to their opponent's goal and regain the points left behind. and I think Haaland is ready to go and take that point.

In football, there is no luck without hard work. Arsenal have become the scourge of a very tough team this season, even though most of the players are young talents. at least, the Gunners' young squad has shown their abilities under Arteta's tutelage. they have teamwork, chemistry, mentally tested, strong bonding and most importantly team spirit. that is why, Arsenal have been able to consistently top the Premier League standings so far.

I admit, City is one level above the Gunners. but, that does not mean City will smoothly shift the ranking occupied by Arsenal at this time. because, Arsenal still have one game to widen the difference in points with City. if Arsenal are able to overthrow Everton, then City are eight points behind.

by the way, if Liverpool, Manchester United can topple City. what about Arsenal, now we will find out soon because these two teams will meet today in the title FA CUP match.

I've been waiting for this fixture for so much time this season. IIRC, their PL fixture was postponed so its their first time locking horns this season. It will be a very good test between two heavy favourites of PL title contenders. Well its an FA Cup so I am hoping for a game time for new players for Arsenal to make their  mark. Possible that City might give some chances to others also but well let's see, it will be an interesting contest for sure.

The FA CUP may not be the top priority for either of them, but that doesn't mean we're going to see bad games. Obviously, Arsenal and Manchester City don't care whether it's the FA CUP even though both of them have to keep showing their best performance. In addition, the audience will see this from various sides, when one of them is able to come out as a winner, automatic speculation can have a big impact on the Premier League.

So, the meeting matches in the FA CUP are not focused on which league they play in but what is the target is to measure the level of difference in power between Arsenal and Manchester City. I'm sure this result will always be linked later in the Premier League.

No doubt about FA Cup is not priority for both team between Arsenal or Manchester City, but current standing in Primer League and both team still compete to get top standing I sure FA Cup 4th round between Manchester  City vs Arsenal become more crucial match. I don't think with both team will use reserve on first standing eleven and actually between Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta will use their main player.

For Manchester City become opportunity how to show the public about their consistency and ambition for beating Arsenal, actually FAC Cup match round 4th not change with current Primer League standing but also make Manchester City more confidence for primer league match and back to the top standing later.

They are currently competing in the Premier League standings and today they will compete to beat each other in the FA Cup. Maybe the FA Cup is not like the Premier League, but if two big teams meet they will show their abilities and don't want to be beaten by other big teams, in this case Arsenal and Manchester City. They are a team with the top 2 positions in the Premier League table, of course there will be prestige that they will be betting on in this match.

The result is indeed very important so it cannot be underestimated just because the FA Cup is less prestigious. For both parties, this match will be taken seriously. Given the hot status of the two clubs in the Premier League, they could be taken into the FA Cup tie before a more important meeting in the Premier League. It was clear that the match, which had been postponed, made the two of them look forward to the meeting. Testing the quality of each player and also bringing together two coaches who had been in one chair.

But yes the coach understands  what the team needs for that we cannot predict how they will play in the future match including when they have to fight Manchester City in the FA CUP.

Arsenal will be going all in against manchester city. FA cup is also very important for arsenal. Arsenal will be trying to win some trophies this season. It seems like that city is the only team that makes arsenal feel scary. Arsenal will be fully prepared against manchester city, The problem is haaland is starting to make so many goals again. Arsenal must be careful. that will be so bad if arsenal will be losing against arsenal and lose a chance to win the trophy with it. As long as arsenal can keep being consistent in EPL and I think that arsenal will have no problem in FA cup even when it will be facing manchester city.

[KTChampions]

Manchester city have a bigger depth compared to Arsenal so I’ve a feeling that Arteta won’t prioritize the Fa cup like Pep would. He’s all set on the EPL this season but If they can win Manchester City, it’ll give them more confidence to go on and keep winning and also an opportunity to win a trophy this season. But another thing is while Arsenal is leading by such a good margin their focus should be on league, but doesn’t mean throw away FA Cup and Europa, it’s Arteta’s job to manage squad rotation to get the best results in all competitions, getting kicked out of other cups does not guarantee the league.

I think now the most important thing is that Arsenal have a comfortable game with Everton ahead, and City have the most difficult game with Tottenham. Therefore, it is Arsenal which can play at full strength and City may resort to rotation. It's nice to beat a rival head-to-head, but if it's worth losing points against Tottenham and losing the Premier League, it's going to be a disaster.

[slapper]

Both clubs had not play each other this season though in the previous seasons Man City had been defeating Arsenal in all competitions, however the much improved and formidable gunners will be playing City for first time this season, though soccer analysts might have tipped Man City to win the match, however I have much confidence in the present squad of Arsenal players who are hungry for success and will likely prove many analysts wrong when they play today, though the outcome of the match will depend on the quality of players to be involved the game, there might be a possibility of resting some of them to avoid injury by their managers because it's a FA Cup fixture.

The past seasons may not have gone well for Arsenal when they competed against Man City, but this is a new season, and everything are open to transformation at this point. I completely agree with you on this point. I get the impression that the Arsenal players now in the team are more focused and more intent on achieving their goals, and I think that this passion for victory will most surely play a significant factor in their performance today.

It is true that many pundits may have predicted that Man City will win, but we must not overlook the fact that Arsenal also have a formidable squad. They have been getting better and putting in performances that are encouraging in their most recent matches, and I have a hunch that they will shock everyone with a victory tonight because to the performances they have given. I have the same faith as you have in Arsenal, and like you, I'm going to place a wager on them with odds of 4.2. Let us keep our fingers crossed that putting our trust in the gunners will pay off and that they will emerge triumphant.

In fact, every trophy is needed by all clubs. Of course, if we are compared to the EPL trophy, the FA cup is still below it, but it is not only about trophies but achievements. the FA Cup is also an official competition in UK, so this will have an impact for the club to the next level. For Arsenal, if this season they win the EPL and can win the FA Cup, this will repeat the history that has happened for a long time, when Arsenal won these two competitions in one season. So IMO, there is no reason for Arsenal to not focused for win in this matches.

[tranthidung]

The result is indeed very important so it cannot be underestimated just because the FA Cup is less prestigious. For both parties, this match will be taken seriously.

They have different priorities in this season and FA Cup is not at top of their priorities especially Manchester City. I believe Arsenal don't put FA Cup at top of their priority list too because Premier League is bigger and they must assign best resources for it. It is especially important for Arsenal to focus on it and protect the 5 points difference they have against Manchester City.

Given the hot status of the two clubs in the Premier League, they could be taken into the FA Cup tie before a more important meeting in the Premier League. It was clear that the match, which had been postponed, made the two of them look forward to the meeting. Testing the quality of each player and also bringing together two coaches who had been in one chair.

Of course, they are both big clubs and are competing each other directly so they won't give up the match in FA Cup easily. So I am sure they will contribute an exciting match for us to watch on televisions or on field. However, I don't expect to see their best players to play because they need best players for Premier League and Champions League.

this is the match I'm waiting for as a Manchester City supporter of course I want Arsenal to play with a full squad so that this match will be great to watch later, of course I bet on Manchester City hoping Arsenal will play well against Manchester City later

So IMO, there is no reason for Arsenal to not focused for win in this matches.

 Today is the first time both teams are facing each other this season so I don't think any of this teams would want to slack on any meetings, this match is like a test so they're going to take it very serious like the way they take every match in the league. For Arsenal they're going all out to prove a point that they're just not going to win the EPL trophy alone but also the  FA cup too, facing Man City without fear will give them enough courage to play them in the remaining 2 legs in the EPL fixture.
 IMO I see Arsenal winning or playing a draw in this fixture despite Man City being the favorite in this game.

[hyudien]

So I am sure they will contribute an exciting match for us to watch on televisions or on field. However, I don't expect to see their best players to play because they need best players for Premier League and Champions League.

If you look at the schedule of matches in the Premier League and Champions League matches, in my opinion there is still quite a lot of time left and it is not too much of an obstacle not to focus on the FA Cup. Therefore there is no other reason for Man City and Arsenal to appear half-hearted. The FA Cup deserves to be seen from all sides and if you don't show optimal performance it may not be ethical if the most anticipated match is just an event that is not special. This is not about the status of the FA Cup but the impact of results will determine who deserves to lead in the Premier League. Both of them are still betting on positive trends and don't want to be left behind with bad results.

This kind of situation applies to both teams, the question is whether they are serious enough to compete in the FA Cup or not, because if not I'm sure we will see a different line-up than they usually do. They also have the option to rotate players here, because as you said it looks like they will prioritize the Premier League, especially Arsenal who have done their best so far. But maybe there will be prestige between them so that it will force them to field the full squad in this match, and don't want to just give up on each other.

so true. both teams will definitely play to the maximum. even though the FA Cup is not a priority for these two teams. But still, both Manchester City and Arsenal definitely want to win this fight. especially Arsenal. I think Arsenal will fight pretty hard to win in this game. because in the last 5 meetings Arsenal have suffered 5 consecutive defeats by Manchester City. So at this time of course Arsenal will be very motivated to be able to win. And we also know that Arsenal are currently in quite good performance and consistency. well at least this fight must be awaited by all of us.
