Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Falconer]

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.

I'm sure a lot of people probably won't doubt Chelsea against Fulham. Chelsea deserved to get the win for this match after they spent quite a lot of money in the transfer market. I don't doubt Chelsea more than they did before and now they have to be the favorites to win the game.

And apparently, Enzo Fernandez will get his debut against Fulham after he agreed to join Chelsea. Certainly Chelsea have been getting stronger given their current squad depth, but it's always a surprise when they make mistakes due to poor communication between players. Enzo and the other new players will need to adapt, but they have done well in their previous teams and hopefully won't have too much trouble adjusting to Potter's wishes.

Chelsea need win following their poor performance which only won 1 of 5 consecutive matches, so they should be obliged to maximize all the potential of their players to get 3 points from Fulham. Besides that, Fulham is also not strong team in defense so Chelsea is expected to score goals in this match to win.

It is likely that Chelsea will get the second victory at home in the last 5 matches when they face Fulham at Stamford Bridge, London.
When playing at Craven Cottage on January 13, Chelsea lost in the last 15 minutes after Koulibaly equalized 1-1 in the 47th minute.

With all the strength possessed by Chelsea at this time, we can say Graham Potter will instruct all players to appear all out in order to get full points and be a worthy revenge for Fulham.
As you have said, Fulham are not a strong team in defense considering they have conceded 14 goals in away games so far.

Kick off starts now and we can see that this is a little complicated for Chelsea considering Fulham is also quite troublesome especially Mitrovic is playing now.
I think this chance, even if you win, will be a narrow victory for at least 1 goal, but on the other hand it is very likely that this will be a draw, considering that the big club Fulham always has a tight defense.

[BitcoinAccepted]

Chelsea just started the game at home against Fullham. And Ziyech is just in the base. I don't think he's that keen on playing after Chelsea's skillfully botched transfer. Is it smart to play him after that failure in the transfer policy? I think Chelsea will win this game, but over the entire season I don't expect much from this team. If they qualify for the CL then they have done well for them. The differences with the top 3 are considerable this season.

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 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 on transfer players with winning results.

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.

Let's see how the full-time will be for both clubs as the new feature, Chelsea has great players lined up in this match and Fulham appeared with their old squad but with new skills and expectations and with great hope of winning.
*one thing we should be on the lookout for in this match is a possible goal score by both clubs and no club is at advantage of winning unless on the possible first goal score.

[Pokapoka124]

Anyway, Chelsea must be able to take revenge on Fulham in today's match, because in the previous match Chelsea lost by Fulham with a score of 2-1. Even worse, at this moment Fulham's position is better than Chelsea in the Premier League standings because Fulham is above Chelsea by having a two-point gap.

Therefore, if Chelsea can get revenge in this match and beat Fulham, then Chelsea will be able to overtake Fulham and get back into a better position. But yes, because many of Chelsea's key players cannot be played, of course the mission to take revenge will not be easy because Chelsea's situation and conditions are not entirely good.

Chelsea will try their best to get a revenge by winning this game and taking home all three points. Potter was left disappointed with the result in the first leg and won't want to repeat same outcome this time especially with the new signings to the team, Chelsea are expected to be much stronger physically and tactically when they face Fulham tonight in the premier league.

The problem is, Rashford is often unable to maintain the consistency of his performance so that he often fails in many seasons. Being the best player requires you to consistently perform well, and so far Rashford hasn't shown that. Indeed, so far this season Rashford has performed brilliantly where his contribution to the team has scored 9 goals in 20 matches.

Rashford must keep up form if he wants to be the best, but this season the main competition for the best player is Haaland. It is difficult to compete with this striker who has scored 25 goals in 19 matches. So Rashford may need to try to do well to take Manchester United in the Champions League next season rather than being interested in being the best player.

Unfortunately that happens to be true because this season he also started on a slow pace but has managed to improve and scoring goals for fun with the help of Ten Hag's expertise and ability to bring out the best in his players. With 9 goals already I can only hope he could maintain this form until the end of the season.

[Rruchi man]

And apparently, Enzo Fernandez will get his debut against Fulham after he agreed to join Chelsea.

I have seen his touch on the ball, Chelsea look better with these new set of fresh players. They have started the first half looking really well and like a team that will win against Fulham. So much joy seeing Reece James back for Chelsea, his presence provides a lot of reassurance that Chelsea can actually win and get three points against Fulham. There will be a lot of pressure on Graham Potter to show that he can actually handle this new set of players.

Fulham have handled the pressure that Chelsea has brought very well. Winning this game is still very possible for them with their star player Mitrovic, posing a threat to Chelsea defenders.

[Franctoshi]

Now that Graham Potter has been given a enough time to improve in his coaching performance, Also he has been given huge some amount of money to get in more players to boost the Chelsea team and which he has now gotten quite a good number of players in there at Chelsea, I would see no reason why he is not gonna do the needful and take Chelsea to the promise land.

[kawetsriyanto]

I'm sure a lot of people probably won't doubt Chelsea against Fulham. Chelsea deserved to get the win for this match after they spent quite a lot of money in the transfer market. I don't doubt Chelsea more than they did before and now they have to be the favorites to win the game.

And apparently, Enzo Fernandez will get his debut against Fulham after he agreed to join Chelsea. Certainly Chelsea have been getting stronger given their current squad depth, but it's always a surprise when they make mistakes due to poor communication between players. Enzo and the other new players will need to adapt, but they have done well in their previous teams and hopefully won't have too much trouble adjusting to Potter's wishes.

Ideally, Chelsea must win against Fulham, they have a better squad and they play at home. It will be shameful if Chelsea gets a draw or a loss, people will assume Chelsea just waste money without getting any improvement in their performance. By having Enzo Fernandez and Mykhaylo Mudryk, Chelsea should be stronger and more effective in playing. However, no guarantee of an instant improvement, the coach has a big role. At the end of the day, Chelsea performance will depend on the strategy and lineup made by the coach.

Anyway, the first match won't be easy for new players. I hope Enzo Fernandez and Mykhaylo Mudryk won't get the same problem as João Félix. Chelsea needs an important win, new players are expected to give their best performance.

If they qualify for the CL then they have done well for them. The differences with the top 3 are considerable this season.

The failure of the transfer, which seemed to be on purpose, was a bit of a hindrance, but he was given time to play now and of course he has to be professional, especially with his current condition.
20 minutes have passed so no real threatening opportunities so far but looking at the ball possession they are doing it is a very good thing in my opinion because regardless of anything as long as they keep attacking and stay disciplined, gradually they will have the right rhythm to dismantle the defense of Fulham.

[LUCKMCFLY]

There is a great match in the Premier League today. Chelsea will face Liverpool in the English Premier League today. These two teams are performing well in the English Premier League. If we look at the points table, we can see that both the teams are almost on equal footing. Liverpool is at number 9 in the points table with 28 point after playing 18 matches. And Chelsea is at number 10 in the points table with 28 points after playing 19 matches. This match is very important for both the teams. If Chelsea can beat Liverpool in this match, they will go one step behind Liverpool in the points table. And if Liverpool can win this match, they will overtake Brentford and take the eighth position in the points table. But if we consider the overall issue, surely Liverpool will be ahead in this match. But at the end of the day, those who do well on the field will be the ones who will win the match.

Without a doubt, it was an excellent game, I cannot deny that Chelsea has great things to prove, now that Chelsea is so renewed it is proving its worth, all the players are integrating, sometimes the results are not as expected but they are I can see many things that can be noticed when they play, the attack is infallible, the truth is to have legs to make attacks like this is because they have to play somewhat limited, for example when we compare it with Real Madrid they also have a sudden attack, but they they reserve all their strength for the last ones in the game, and that is a very risky strategy for what they always show.

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.

Chelsea lost their last match against Fulham. However, Chelsea has won 4 of their last 5 matches against Fulham. But at the moment Fulham team is more stable than Chelsea. Chelsea players can attack a lot, but Tovigg can't score due to a lack of finisher. Chelsea's players attacked a lot in the last match against Fulham. However, they lost 2-1. But I think today Fulham will play a bit defensive. Fulham will probably be happy with a draw in the away match. I'm eagerly waiting to watch this match.

I think many people still don't have much faith in Chelsea, it's somewhat cumbersome, apparently I think it's all down to the distrust they have of Graham, it's obvious, also with the new signings some may think they have very little time to decide Whether or not it is feasible for the team to be 100% is something strange, with good players a good team is built, a good strategy can be created and the team can be led to incredible glory, however the speculations and according to the statistics The signs that are shown are not the most encouraging, this is something that has been noticed for a long time, but these things can turn around and give Chelsea and their fans a pleasant surprise.

Even as they have bought many, they also consider selling:

Chelsea consider offloading Kalidou Koulibaly

Chelsea could consider letting Kalidou Koulibaly leave the club in the summer if he fails to improve his situation.

Simon Phillips has told Give Me Sport that Chelsea are open to selling Kalidou Koulibaly in the summer if the defender’s situation remains unchanged. The £300,000-a-week star has underperformed since his high-profile move to Stamford Bridge, and he has cut an unhappy figure.

Kalidou Koulibaly was regarded as one of the best central defenders during his time in Serie A. After years of speculation, the Senegalese centre-back finally got a move to Chelsea, who signed him as a replacement for Antonio Rudiger. At the time, the transfer was considered wise despite the significant outlay to acquire him.

[ILuckyGuyI]

We have left the first thirty minutes of the game behind but there is still a 0-0 tie. Besides Chelsea's performance is still not impressive at all.

Because they have only one goal attempt in this time period which is pretty bad. They have the biggest percentage of ball possession but they can't turn this into effective goal attempts yet. The first half is quite likely to end in a draw as long as there is no action. Hopefully something starts to change in the second half. They have Mudryk in the lineup now and they must be relying on his skills quite much also. But with this team effort it is difficult to wait form him to make difference.

[RockBell]

Chelsea had a strong start, but at some point fulham took the initiative. As t. Silva attempted to score for Chelsea, the game became more interesting. Ziyech is a good player when it comes to playing corners, but one annoying aspect of Chelsea is that they are constantly selling and buying players. This may have led to a draw. Fulham  is currently playing better than Chelsea, let's see the out come.

[DaNNy001]

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.

Chelsea have tried all they could to improve their bad form but i still believe that form was owed to that fact that most of their key players were all experiencing injury but now that they have sign so many players they will be no excuse for them if they still perform poorly. I wanted to bet on this game but i was certain on how they would perform with these new players added to the squad so i want to watch out for this game first before I would then conclude if i can wager a bet on them.

looks like Chelsea's defense has a bit of a gap. so almost in the 27th or 28th minute a Fullham player's kick almost became a goal. lucky the goalkeeper Arrizabalaga was still able to block the ball. Mudryk did look convincing in this fight. But unfortunately Fullham's defense seems to be quite sturdy in this fight. so that there has been no attack that has been able to penetrate Fullham's defense at this time. well I think the first half will likely end in a draw. even though I favor Chelsea but Fullham seems to have a more organized attack pattern in this match. and I'm afraid that Fullham will be the first to score in this game.

I think Chelsea are better in terms of possession in the game but possession doesn't win a match for you. I have seen many games in football where the winning team actually had little possession of the ball but managed to win the game. A typical example of such is the popular final match in the euros between Portugal and france where france possessed the ball entirely but only one goal from eder in the extra time sealed the Victory for the Portuguese. Chelsea needs to do more shoots from outside the 18yard box to see if they can secure a victory.

[KTChampions]

Ideally, Chelsea must win against Fulham, they have a better squad and they play at home. It will be shameful if Chelsea gets a draw or a loss, people will assume Chelsea just waste money without getting any improvement in their performance. By having Enzo Fernandez and Mykhaylo Mudryk, Chelsea should be stronger and more effective in playing. However, no guarantee of an instant improvement, the coach has a big role. At the end of the day, Chelsea performance will depend on the strategy and lineup made by the coach.

Anyway, the first match won't be easy for new players. I hope Enzo Fernandez and Mykhaylo Mudryk won't get the same problem as João Félix. Chelsea needs an important win, new players are expected to give their best performance.

Havertz had a chance to make it 1-0 at the end of the first half, but hit the post. It seems that Chelsea controls the game, but they created perhaps only two dangerous moments, and the opponent had one chance. If the game in the second half will take place according to the same scenario, then the likelihood that Chelsea will again lose points is high. By the way, bookmakers already see this outcome as very real: the chances of Chelsea winning are estimated at 1.92.

yes you are right. that more dominating in ball possession is not a guarantee to win the game. Even as we saw in this fight. In fact, Fullham has endangered Chelsea's defense several times. and well at least the Chelsea players have to be more daring to make attempted shots from outside the penalty box. because it seems that Fullham's defense is solid in this match. So that Chelsea's forward players seem to be very difficult to create opportunities. and the first half now ended in a draw.

Agree with what you said, looking at the current conditions even though they controlled more than 60 percent of ball possession but seeing this condition is really not very good.
They still have problems finishing and it's a shame that a pretty good chance was still blocked by the Mistar at the end of the first half.
I think if it is still one point even losing points is still possible in this case.

Chelsea ain't really in possession of the game as we have expected, looking at the Chelsea defense there are some lapses especially from the wing of cucurella. And I think Chelsea full-back needs to put more effort to correct those lapses to reduce the pressure in the defense in the next 45 minutes of the game. Chelsea really needs to win this game cause even a draw isn't enough for what has been spent so far.

[Ryu_Ar1]

So that Chelsea's forward players seem to be very difficult to create opportunities. and the first half now ended in a draw.

There were some good chances for them but so far nothing has been on target and Fulham were much better at taking their chances in this first half.
There was one good try from Havertz late in the first half but that too fell through and this was probably the best chance of the first half for Chelsea.
Currently Potter still has to continue to increase the intensity of their attacks, because regardless of anything now they need points and as much as possible for the second half later they have to be better in order to maintain hope of 3 points.
