Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

What I especially did not expect was that Manchester United would climb to the 2nd place. Before the winter break they were not looking too well anyway. Have a very strong selection, but apparently that only became apparent later. It is a pity that De Beek's plays so little. Could have stayed better with Ajax. Would be nice if United managed to finish 2nd, but especially Leicester City is working on another dream season for them.

ya.ya.yo!

I also didn't have an expectation from Manchester Utd to have such a great season. Bruno Fernandes has a huge role on this very good run. If it weren't for his great contribution to the team (16 goals, 10 assists in 28 EPL games), they would be at a lower position in the table most probably. When it comes to Leicester, they have been really an awesome team in the last years and they continue to surprise me by their great performance in the league. Ranieri's success with the team was the defining moment and the start of awesome things for them.

Finally good news for the fans, at least in England.
BBC Sport has just shared this news: ''FA Cup final and World Snooker Championship on list of pilot events to test return of fans''
''The FA Cup final - potentially in front of 20,000 fans''

~snip

yeah, get back to normal, it would be good to have fans on the stadiums again, seems that this is already normal to just watch matches on television, and there is no audience on stands
FA cup is more suitable for fans, since it is as usual, on open football stadium, for Snooker, I am not sure that they will allow it to play in front of fans, will see in the end, maybe they will allow some symbolic numbers for indoor sports

What a fantastic finish by Leeds which unbelievable nobody was expecting in today match Chelsea will get exposed like that. I am totally disappointed from them and very hard to believe they could get failed against the weak side. Anyway what a boring day All matches getting shocking results.

I am disappointed either, all fans. what Tuchel did is a bad strategy have. he must change his mind to do next to put Wenner and Giroud as a starter not to blame slippery field or anything. Leeds can read Tuchel's strategy because he did it before.

You might see Leeds as a weak team here, but from the games I have watched I can tell you these guys have plenty of quality in them and honestly they deserved to walk away with a result.

On the part of Chelsea resting some players I think it's a good idea to rest some of their best to give chance to others that don't have enough game time on the field, besides resting these guys motivates  the next guy to fight for a chance to be called to play.

Chelsea is also still doing well in the Champions League. So i am not sure what they prefer to do. Mourinho has a very strong capability of analyzing, he wants to advance in the champions league for sure after they bet 0-1 in Atletico madrid. maybe just give the most important players some rest.

It's such a pleasure to watch Manchester City playing on the pitch, Guardiola has always been and still is my fav team manager! These guys can really make a hell of a season if they are to win both Premier League and Champions League!
My attention today goes to the derby between Arsenal and Tottenham which I believe will be an exciting match worth to follow. It may end in a draw.

It's glad to see Machester City won this game easily and detoryed Fulham so badly. They took great advantage of weak side and easily did this to add another 3 points to their portfolio to put them into more strong position by finsihing this match with victory.

Chealsea is indeed quite stable in every game.  Even in the prime league since the beginning, Chealsea has shown an improvement in the game and is currently tay at number 4. It is likely to play in the Champions League next season.
However, if you look at their schedule, there are still some matches that haven't been completed.  If they are still stable enough then the possibility for the next season will materialize but if they can't defend it, Westham is ready to overtake Chelsea for next season.

We have some pretty tight fixtures: Arsenal vs Spurs and Man Utd. vs West Ham (was excited to see Lingard performance but he is out for today's game).

WestHam has now become a strong candidate in recent days will tonight turn off Man United's move? Meanwhile, Man United still want to continue to chase points so that they are not overtaken by Leicester, from tonight they must get full points so that their position remains safe. But playing at home is sure enough for the Red Devils to get 3 points.

In the Arsenal vs Spurs match there are still doubts and one of them must have won but I cannot confirm who will win which is clear for me it is difficult to guess.
It's just that the Spurs continue to experience 3x wins.

Leicester city is now second on the table with a first half win over Sheffield United, the foxes dominated the blades from start to finish of the first half, the game should have been more than one goal to the good for Leicester city, I think the would see it out in the second half, more pressure for Manchester United who face am in form Westham United.

United failed to get advantage in first half of Europa and there are lot of players in doubt and injured for United. Without those players I hardly think Man United will have it easy going against a side like West Ham. As for West Ham they recently have Lingard injured but they have his replacement - Dawson as well. Remember Dawson also had a crazy start to this season before Lingard arrived. He lacks the pace but he has the potential and fits into role perfectly.

I might be going Hammers on this one with a little stake or maybe Hammers/draw.

So far Arsenal and Tottenham have good records in the local and European leagues Same with you I can't predict who will win
but my instinct is to bet that Both teams to score will be the best option it doesn't matter who wins 
Gareth Bale is on fire Arsenal are also with increasing self-confidence really very worthy to watch.

City and Leicester were rocking and the remaining 3 games for this round are hell.
Arsenal - Spurs, hard game, BTTS and Spurs to win?
ManU - West Ham, very hard to predict, normally I back ManU but cannot decide this time.
Wolves - Liverpool, both teams are doing miserable comparing to the last season and from what their supporters are waiting from them, draw maybe?

It was really an unexpected performance from Leicester in my opinion, I expected their win but not in such fashion, they were just so brilliant or should I say Sheffield United were just so awful? Leicester had 19 shots with 10 on target, while Sheffield couldn't even afford a shot on target.

For the Remaining fixtures, I think Arsenal vs Spurs will be a draw, while both Man Utd and Liverpool will win their respective fixtures.

Indeed. I never thought that Leicester would've score 5 times today and even more they score twice in almost the same minute which makes the results even more crazy. With this results they are back into the fight for the spots for UCL but it will be a tight battle as Chelsea, Spurs and Arsenal are back into the fight.

Arsenal - Spurs = 0-1 so far and once again Spurs are barely touching the ball but when they do , they score

Nobody expected Leicester City to win a game with a big score today. Although Sheffield United are the team most likely to be relegated this season, on several occasion they have still managed to better implement their defensive strategy. These result made Leicester City rise to second place while waiting for the result of the match between Manchester United vs West Ham. There is still a possibility that they will be eliminated by Manchester United if they win from West Ham.

For the Remaining fixtures, I think Arsenal vs Spurs will be a draw, while both Man Utd and Liverpool will win their respective fixtures.

Until now, the match has been going pretty tough even though no goal have been scored. Tottenham must score a goal immediately to keep their chance of getting into the top 4. They deserve to win like they have done in the last 3 match.

Oh shit, I missed it. The only shot on target was a goal for Tottenham.

[ingiltere]

Poor Arsenal, played all dominant but conceded a goal. Lamela subbed in for Son and scored a great rabona. Who would expect that goal?
Now there's a big chance for both teams to score and over 2.5 goals bets. Arsenal is trying to find an equalizer but time is running out for first half. We may see better second half for them.

[abhiseshakana]

Man City have been confident on the ball and it is really hard for opponents to get ball away from them. They earlier used to make mistakes while rotating the ball but not much now. It is good to see that after having not the best start in this season now they have improved and now sit at the top of the table. Fulham were unlucky having City as their opponent in this round.

In the first half, both Fulham and Man City played well but I think Man City had more dominated the game. The good opportunity that Man City has in the first half was in the 17th minute when Torres escaped the offside trap, but unfortunately, the shot on goal was blocked by Fulham's goalkeeper.

As we know, in the second half Man City managed to make 3 goals without reply. 5 more wins and Man City will come out as the EPL champions this season. With Man City's current performance, I think it would be very likely to happen.

It was poetic that City destroyed Fulham 3-0 like a proper decent team after Liverpool lost to them. It was like a way of saying "I am much better than you" and that’s quite true for this year. City once again playing for the records, for the past 3 years or so teams have been getting closer to point records a lot, Liverpool was very close last year and City (along with liverpool) was very close the year before, and this year if City keeps winning all their games they will be quite close and even break as well, that Is really shocking to see teams dominate the league that much at the top.

Normally financial fair play and a decent spread of payments allow other teams to gain momentum and that Is why we rarely see one team win the league 10 times in a row like teams do in other leagues (like bayern, juve, psg etc) because teams get money and get players and become good even if they were bad, but for the past 3 years that has not been the case anymore.

If there is one thing I've learnt today after watching Leeds Chelsea is that the London team has a problem scoring goals but did not field a striker and this logic confuses me. Chelsea attempted so many scores but always failed, Tuchel should try to do something about it.

You're right, at least they still have Oliver Giroud. Maybe playing he will score a goal. But at least Tuchel hasn't lost in 12 matches with Chelsea at this time. Looking at the match I saw the two club's Chelsea and Leeds United goalkeepers both doing well, they made some great saves. Mendy saves the goal from four kicks on target. Chelsea had eight raw shots on target by Illan Meslie.

I have always liked the football that Chelsea shows because of the way they define a game, in fact what happened is very normal in football teams, sometimes we do not take it into account but luck plays a fundamental role in everything, Shots on goal can be many, sometimes it happens that the other team arrives once and scores the goal and takes the victory, I think it was not Chelsea's day but I trust that for the next game we will see it shine.

Some might say that Leeds defense was insuperable but I prefer to state that Chelsea really needs to improve their attacking phase as it is not possible to not score a single one after all those attempts. You guys are all optimistic about that and we shall see then.

They did find the goal just before the break, thanks to Odegaard, although I think the heavy deflection from one of the Spurs defenders played a huge role in the goal, If not the keeper should have easily saved that. It's anyone's game from here on, however, I think this would remain the final score by the end of 90 minutes.

I think we might see more goals in the second half given the chances Arsenal has had and how leaky their defense is as well. Kane hasn't shown up in the game yet, probably because of Son's early exit (the two seem to play well as partners) but if they press hard as Arsenal sometimes tries to play from the back. They could get a goal out of it.

Does anyone know why Aubameyang started on bench? I mean Arsenal could use him right now
