Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

Tactically it forces the other team to have its fullback play more defensively to block that space Traore can use with his pace and strength.

It's not an uncommon tactic, the thing is that usually these kind of players end up scoring a lot of goals and creating a lot of chances. Traore gets into these positions a lot as well, but his decision making is so poor in these situations so he ruins them all.

A really frustrating player to watch if you are his manager. He has the potential to give you something extra, you are relying on it game after game, yet it never happens.

A player like Traore who makes the entire crowd furious.  When the audience has put such high expectations and it is crushed at the last second.  Traore is the one who does that the most, it is only natural that he cannot be transferred to a bigger club because his strength is still not very supportive of the team.  He just ran without a perfect execution and this should be his big task to bring out his more potential.

The truth is that Traore is not even good enough for Wolves; and i believe he starts only due to coaching preferences; aside power and pace; he contributes nothing to goals, assists nor chances created, what sort of player is that ? He is championship level if we are being frank.

Fulham ? - ? Wolverhampton Wanderers Wolves lead the weekend fixtures for the weekend tonight; Can wolves outgun Fulham with help from Traore? Would Fulham relent in their chase to survive relegation ? I see a Fulham 3-1 victory
What do you reckon would be the outcome of the tie.

I agree it's not his problem he's overhyped, they will probably sell him for quite a bit of money because he forces one full back to stay back - otherwise he'll use open space. But his ball control is awful, his finishing is nonexistent and his decision making is on a level of a sunday league player. He's lucky he's fast, otherwise he'd be paying somebody else to be playing football.

I always sort of pity players who are overhyped. My own team has such a person in Alli but maybe these past few years the hype has died down. I think Adama needs to move to another team where people can stop pressuring him. Look at Jesse Lingard and Lukaku they escaped the hype and made themselves so good. I wish all players well!

If United don't win the game against Tottenham on sunday, I think there is no sense in talking anymore about who will be the champions this season.

The tittle race ended few months ago the only competition right now is the champions league qualification between Manutd, Leicester, Chelsea, and Liverpool, on the other hand we have the relegation battle between Fulham, Westbrom and Newcastle. Only two things are certain now ; Manchester City winning the league and Sheffield United getting relegated.

From Everton's 8th standings to the table above, they can still enter UEFA qualification only relying on winning with extraordinary ambition, we have already forgotten the PL Mancity trophy for sure, and now the toughest match is that Spurs as the host definitely want to get points that must be carried while Man United wants to keep it, so their capital now is with a stronger defense. I am sure Man United will have a better attack than Spurs but that all cannot be superficially predicted.

Manchester City have been guarantee to be champion this season just most wonderful and most competitive who will be qualify for champion league next season because top four position have more close points, Manchester United, Chelsea, Leicester City, Liverpool and West Ham United have bigger chance each other until end league to be top four position.

Fulham v Wolverhampton - 02 Double Chance or Under 2.5 Goals
Fulham lost 3 matches in a row. Wolves lost 2 matches in a row and didn't win in last 5 matches. Expecting a pretty tempered match.

I believe even as just a player who used in tactic scheme to make sure the other teams halfbacks are not too far up, that would be great. This is why I am not really sure if he should be condemned the way he is because he lacked the stats this season. Just to give an example, I know this is nowhere near the same thing, but do you judge a goalkeeper by how many goals he scored? You judge him by how many he didn't get scored on right?

Well same could be said for Traore, his job is not to score, or to assist neither, obviously he should more than a goalkeeper that's true, and he did that a lot last year too, so if he plays his best there is a chance he could do that, but I think it is obvious that he should not be expected that. All he has to do is run very fast and keep other teams players around him, if he can get other players around him, that leaves some other players open and that's what he should do.

Fulham v Wolverhampton - 02 Double Chance or Under 2.5 Goals
Fulham lost 3 matches in a row. Wolves lost 2 matches in a row and didn't win in last 5 matches. Expecting a pretty tempered match.

Let's check the results of their head-to-head match. In the last 5 head-to-head matches, the Wolves have won 3, drawn one, and Fluham won the remaining one. I think the Wolves will win this match too. My guess is that the Wolves will win 1-0.

Somehow my feeling is that Fulham will win this time or at least a draw might deserve this match. I realize Fulham are in the relegation zone and Wolves look better, but at the moment Wolves don't have so many surprises when they play away, so I'm sure Fulham will take advantage of this moment so that the opportunity to get out of the relegation zone is still open. Although indeed, if I look at the opponents that are faced next it still seems like it is still difficult for Fulham to get out of the relegation zone.

When two very strong teams or two very weak teams face each other, it is very difficult to predict about their matches result. Anything can happen. If Fulham can beat Wolves, there’s nothing to be surprised about. However, both teams will want to share points in this match. Because both teams have lost several matches in a row.

Both teams doing badly as you said not been able to win in the last games i do not think we will see a lot of goals although fulham position is really bad they are in the relegation zone and they need the three points so they will be attacking and they need to keep watch to not conceid a goal i think the first one to score will be the winner in this kind of games.

Liverpool face Aston Villa this weekend after a 7-2 first leg drubbing; How will Liverpool perform? Who will be blamed this time ?

The 7-2 loss was absolutely a disaster for Liverpool. It shocked the people from all around the world.    This is the revenge time I think. They can't make up an excuse about van Dijk's not still playing. They have all of their players who are very effective on scoring. And this is one of the very important matches in the race for the 4th position. They should win this at any cost.

Yep that was a real nightmare...liverpool players was very bad on the pitch and the big problem is that the opponent wasnt bayern but just aston villa...i think players must honor the name of Liverpool by making a good revenge

I hope so, yes. Aston Villa are not a bad team but they are also not a team that can score 7 goals against Liverpool normally. Liverpool will have less morale as they lost 3-1 to Real Madrid in the CL. But they have to keep getting good results in the league to maintain their chance for 4th or 5th place. It's revenge time!

Fulham vs Wolves 0-0 HT
VAR canceled the goal from Wolves due to an offside that was really really small. Inches decided this offside and goal. Bad match so far hopefully we see more in the second half.

[acquafredda]

Do not ask me why, as I do not know why but I am concentrating on Sheffield Arsenal for the upcoming EPL round.
Arsenal should return from Bramall Lane with the full three points, although the odds of them conceding at least one goal remain very high. The total goals, therefore, could be more than two. The bookies pay this accordingly, so why not.

The Current season is really disaster for Klop and his boys because too many injuries hit their season very badly and expose they have not good enough bench power, but hopefully they will learn from these mistakes and try to set things for next season. In Champions League they still have some chance if they are able to do 2 goals against Real Madrid which is not hard because this win can give them confidence, and then they can go through for some respectable end of this season which is very important for their moral.

I'm not very sure about the "not hard" part about getting a 2-0 win against Real Madrid in the rematch. Because I wasn't expecting them to lose to Real with a quite disadvantageous result in the first leg. Now they've made things harder for them. Of course everything's not over in this draw yet. I hope they will win this game and boost their morale before the second leg.

This weekend we will have a super Sunday between Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United. In early of this season, Spurs destroyed Manchester United but after that big win, Spurs slipped down in forms and now they have been struggling to fight for the fourth position on the table.

8 matches left and Spurs have to win to keep up their hope because they have 2 and 3 points less than Chelsea and West Ham.

The table
This match will happen tomorrow

@SquirrelJulietGarden a very interesting match but for it’s worth Manchester United have really nothing to lose in this fixture, because the title race is over and they have secured the champions league spot so I wonder how well will they play. Also they maybe eager for some revenge on Tottenham for that brutal defeat, but I guess Mourinho will be ready for it.

The champions league qualification continues on week 31, this is the first time seven (7) teams are contesting for this position, last season we had 6 teams, surprisingly we have west ham who were some point fought relegation battle last season now occupy 4th position on the league table. Leicester fought hard last season but lost the spot to Chelsea. At this point, it's difficult to predict but West Ham won't make it



The relegation battle is shaping up. Sheffield United and Fulham positions are certain, the question now is between Brighton and Newcastle who is going down?
