Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Distraction]

I think it's not fair to go hard on Joao Felix too much now. Because he is still a skilled striker and can be very useful for Chelsea until the end of the season.

Of course it wasn't nice to see him getting a red card in his first official match with them already. But it was a really unlucky red card at the same time. He didn't have a bad intention but he couldn't save himself from that incident. It was too late for that after the sliding tackle attempt. He must also be very regretful for that and I'm pretty sure he will be more careful from now on. Felix still seemed passionate in the Fulham match before the red card. Potter should continue giving him chances as much as possible.

Honestly, I don't think there is much Felix will show us in the Premier League, most especially in Chelsea. He is one of the signings Chelsea did not even need, but to our surprise they signed him.

Chelsea has a squad filled up with recently signed players, and I am not even sure how they are even going to use all of them. Speak of wasting money, Chelsea is at the very top.

There are mixed feelings against him as it seems but I'm still believing in him to show a good level of performance until the season ends. 

Like I said he was really decent in his first match already. This leads me to think like he is a hardworking striker and he will do his best for Chelsea. Maybe it is still early to think like that but we don't always see players showing a good performance on their first appearances. Other than Felix, I have big expectations from Mudryk also. He was signed for a huge amount maybe but this is new normal in football actually. Spending 100 million euros on skilled players isn't seen too much for this kind of rich teams.

Chelsea team will face fulham in a home game today, chelsea team had good results in the last two games unlike their opponent but i don't think they will have it easy, chelsea team had some major changes this season they have now some talented young players so i expect things to improve for them atleast in term of performance both teams are on the middle of the table but not too far from a european spot so they both have motivation to win this game but i think chelsea team has the edge since its a home game so i think a bet on them will be good.

if chelsea is held to a draw or loses to fulham in the match then I'm sure the owner of chelsea will be very frustrated because the money he's spending is fantastic but there are still teams that lose. Let's see what Fernandez can do in this match, will he give Chelsea a glimmer of hope or even become one of the flop players!

In my opinion, Chelsea will be able to use the home advantage and easily win the match.  Fulham have been playing well lately, but Chelsea have strengthened the squad and are now looking to achieve good results.  They are a team that is hungry for success and they will definitely achieve this success.  The Fulham game may be a start.  So I think we will watch a very resilient Chelsea.

It can be said that today's probability of winning for Chelsea is much higher than for the away team. I believe Chelsea will try to play to their best today where they are very determined to secure 3 points. Chelsea vs Fulham's record is still pretty good, especially for home match, but let's see if this expectation is true. Chelsea's advantage today is not only because they are playing at home, but they have new enthusiasm among the newly signed players.

Chelsea's advantage today is not only because they are playing at home, but they have new enthusiasm among the newly signed players. While Fulham have turned out to be strong team this season winning 31 points from 21 matches, it is very possible to see it drifted to another lower rank if Fulham loses to chelsea today.

I don't think the owner is doing pretty much cus, why will Chelsea suddenly depreciate in regular performances?? Someone even went ahead to say that thing aren't going on well in the club, and that until everything gets better, they won't regain their unity which is a major factor that encourages failure.
I wasn't surprised that the lost Thier last match and played a 0-0 score against Liverpool. Well, let's see what happens with Fulham today.

Besides that, until now I haven't seen any big team that made a more promising offer for him than what Arsenal give. This season coach Mikel Arteta made a place for Gabriel Martinelli, he has played more than 17 EPL matches, it will make Martinelli comfortable.

Not sure about what others gave to him but lot depends on but Martinelli is having good time at Arsenal. I didn't have slightest doubt in mind about the contract extension. Even if some offers would have come up, I think he would have denied them pretty quickly unless there is an opportunity too good to leave. Trossard's arrival didn't changed much as we always needed a backup option in the wing for him and with Trossard we have got the depth. I am sure Arteta is gonna manage both of them well.

Even though Chelsea has to lose to Fulham this night, the owner of Chelsea should not be that disappointed because he invested huge amount of money and getting good players to the club. Those players that he bought will not start performing immediately, some of them will need time to integrate with the team and know the pattern of the coach. So you don't expect them to start doing well immediately. The best of Chelsea could come from next season

You are right and I agree with you, for example, one does not pour sugar into a pap and expect every part of the pap to start tasting sweet, you have to stir it several times so that the sugar and the pap will blend together so that every part of the pap will become sweetened.

The owner of Chelsea should just give the team time to blend into each other, this is how good results are achieved in a match, when the team play in oneness of mind and goal, such team will be very difficult to defeat, so the man should give the boys time.

[Unsoldier]

today even with Chelsea's current condition and position in the EPL standing, the book makers are still sighting them to win against Fulham in today's match. 5.40 odd for Fulham is quite a big odd, very tempting odd that can trigger people to take risks. From records and results, Fulham is better than Chelsea. But from individual capacity and strength, Chelsea is quite a better side. If anyone wants to take the risk, The draw odd is good to go with because the probability of drawing is quite larger.

Fulham have started to give up after a good stretch and have lost twice in a row to top-five teams in the league. The Cottagers play well against equal opponents, but with strong teams, everything is different.

Chelsea have nothing to lose and they need a convincing win to cheer themselves up. I don't think Fulham can win and they will end up losing. Chelsea's motivation is higher and they are a class above them.

Premier league has been a tough one so far, seeing Arsenal being at the top from the beginning of this season is a surprising one considering their premier league previous history, arsenal is playing very well this season, they have only lost to mancity in the cup match, so I strongly believe that arsenal is going to end this season very well.       

[slapper]

I think what you said is also very reasonable and not wrong, but I also don't understand why Chelsea management chose Graham Potter to coach Chelsea this season. Now Chelsea generally need to fight for wins in order to improve their position this season. But I still doubt that Chelsea will be able to get a place in the top four of the standings at the end of this season because there are many ranks that Chelsea must pass with a level of challenge that is not very easy for him this season.

It’s also baffling on why the management of Chelsea would choose Graham Potter. A rookie in my opinion as he hasn’t managed any club as big as Chelsea before. But I don’t really see that as a hindrance to their greatness as Chelsea under his leadership and management could still be as great as any other top coach managing them.
The possibility of Chelsea getting into the top four spot in the premier league isn’t looking possible as they’ve lost and drawn quite a few games.

the Chelsea team has been like this for a long time and there have been several coaches who were replaced in the middle of the competition, indeed it was quite risky and detrimental as is what Chelsea is currently experiencing, they have done a lot of team reshuffles by spending a lot of money to bring in new players but their performance not getting better.
to be in the top 4 at the end of the standings I think is a very difficult thing, it's not impossible considering there are still many matches left for this season but if you look at the performance of the Chelsea team which is not getting better I think that is also a good thing impossible.

I share your disappointment with Chelsea FC's recent play as a fan. Yes, there have been several coaching and roster changes in recent years, and the results have been poor. I believe the team can win. Though finishing in the Premier League's top four is difficult, I think it's possible. The team has time to recover and compete for a playoff position.

Patience is needed to build a competent squad, especially given the recent adjustments. I think Chelsea fans should be patient and supportive right now. If they work hard, they can overcome this hurdle and reach their full potential. If we maintain believing in and supporting our team, they'll keep making us proud.

Emery has been doing a pretty good job since his arrival at Aston Villa. There is a significant level of improvement in their results in the league. They have a Leicester game ahead this time and I already think this will be another victory for them. Because they are in a much better condition than their opponent above all else.

Besides Leicester have started to experience terrible days again. They seemed to be getting better at first but it looks like nothing has changed. They haven't got a win for so many weeks and this can continue to stay this way by this game as well.

[Queentoshi]

This is the only game taking place this evening

After spending record amounts in the January transfer window both Chelsea and their manager Potter are under unprecedented pressure to perform to a high level until the end of the season otherwise the fans will be asking for Potter to be sacked rather be given more time.

With the money Chelsea have spent in this transfer window, they really need to win this game with ease, because no one will spend that kind of money without expecting a good result immediately, they bought almost first 11 players, I don't think there should be any room for excuse in today game, Fulham are really playing well this season so today I see them facing a very difficult game against Chelsea, because Chelsea with the signings they have made so far I don't think Fulham can come out with a point in today game.

yes, even though Fullham managed to beat Chelsea in the previous meeting at Craven Cottage Stadium. However, after that day it seemed that Fullham had not been able to win again against other clubs. different from Chelsea which does look better. Chelsea managed to get 1 win against Crystal Palace. and also managed to hold Liverpool to a draw. and I think today Chelsea will also be able to get the win. I'm also curious about how Graham Potter's strategy is with some of the new players that are currently available.

[BIT-BENDER]

This won’t be Chelsea first time to make big spending and get big name player in their squad for depth and fortifications but what I noticed that was different for them between that time and now is the coach.

Coaching is a very important part of football sometimes and in some occasions better than throwing money into buying of players, Graham potter isn’t completely bad but he has not got that zeal Chelsea require for a coach right now.

I just got to see the lineup for the game against fulham, I'd lie if that's not a killer formation, the defense lineup goes well and they are two pacy fullbacks who knows how to defend when defending and attacking when necessary.
They'll gradually regain the unity, Enzo Fenandez is a youngin but I love his leadership qualities and in the defense, I need not exaggerate about Thiago Silva, the new black lad pairing with him seem composed and also a neat defender.

When it comes to attack I'm not just cool with Kai Harvertz, ever since he's been used down there how many chances has he created ? How many goals has he scored, I know they're tryna find balance but Kai should be dropped off that role of a Central Attacker.

[JoyMarsha]

Two hours later match between Chelsea vs Fulham become opening matchday 22 in English Primer League and not official announcement yet from both team with line up possibility, but current information in LiveScore.com seems has new signing Enzo Fernandez in player list name against Fulham.

I am so excited watching debut performance from most expensive player transfer in English Primer League, is it compatible with transfer of 130 million euro will give positive impact for Chelsea or Enzo Fernandez need longer time adaptation with Primer League competition. Graham  Potter should answer the doubt of fans after spending much money for transfer players with winning result.

All eyes will be on the desk on how Chelsea will perform tonight with their feature of new players against Fulham. The tension is rising at Chelsea side, to revenge for their match loss against Fulham last month.
I expect to see a good result from Chelsea with the kind of selection of players that Potter made that will be playing against Fulham. Love to see James, Mudrik, Badiashile, and Fernande in the squad.



With this selection of players by Potter, it will be a win for Chelsea, no doubt.

[hahay]

It's a shame for Wolves because at this moment even though Wolves are outside of the relegation zone, but if Wolves loses by Liverpool in the match tomorrow then maybe Wolves will return to the relegation zone. But if the three teams below lose too, then at least Wolves will still be in the same position.

Considering that the opponents that Bournemouth, Everton and Southampton will face are also not easy, I think these bottom teams cannot make significant changes to their position in the Premier League standings throughout this season because their performance this season is very worrying.

It is difficult for Fulham to beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. At the moment Chelsea have a good squad to put up with a great campaign after the first half of the season was just too bad to hope for. Chelsea will try to do everything possible to get 3 points at this home game, and from today's line-up they look like they will win.

Enzo Fernández and Mykhailo Mudryk would make Chelsea's midfield and attack better in my opinion, but I'm really curious about how Chelsea will perform today. I'll get a chair and look forward to this fight, I hope it's not boring.

Wolves as hosts in the match against Liverpool at least have to fight not to lose. a draw probably wouldn't be so bad after all. and it seems true that the other teams in the relegation zone also had quite a tough game. Even Everton with their new coach will have the most difficult match in the match, namely against Arsenal, which has had an extraordinary performance this season.

[Aliosky]

With the money chelsea has spent so far and the quality of players they’ve added I believe they will be different this half of the season. Fulham won in the first leg but it won’t be easy this time around playing at the bridge. I have no doubt chelsea will surely win today and with the squad i just saw its just havertz and cucurellla I don’t like to see but its all good. Chelsea need the points today if they really want to make top 4.
