Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

[Huppercase]

Arsenal are showing good and positive signs to the new season, this is the performance level that can guarantee trophies at the end of the season. All that is required now is to stay consistent to achieve the season’s objectives. After finishing the previous season in a disappointing fashion, Arteta has since strengthened his team by making  some acquisitions who have been making good impact in the team. I am sure Arsenal are prepared for whatever this season.

They had one big task last week and they delivered, that match is one of the controversial and discussed win ever since this season has started. They won Manchester United in the Emirates stadium, I hope they have the same zeal to repeat the same thing in Old Trafford because the way people are interpreting the match looks as if they favored Arsenal when Garnacho was offside, they think that goal was robbed but it was not, it was VAR checked and not goal.

So far, Arsenal perfomance has been great, just that they have conceded half of what they have scored for this season, unlike Manchester City that has only conceded only two and net 11 goals, Except for the Champions League that might affect Arsenal match, the rest of their math in this September should be easy, if they win the 3 of them, they should advance to top 4 no matter what point other teams earned.

Pochettino looks like he will fail to build a new era for Chelsea, he only marked its revival with transfer market movements, not with match results. If we wait longer, I'm not sure Pochettino will last more than two seasons at Chelsea. It could be that if the Blues suffer another defeat in the EPL, then he will leave sooner before seeing the players he recruits develop well.

I think if Chelsea loses to a club like Liverpool or Man City it still makes sense, because they are fellow big clubs. However, losing to Nottingham Forest clearly disappointed all fans, I think.

I don’t know if I am the only one who remembers that Pochettino had Messi, Neymar, Mbappe, Sergio Ramos, Verrati and many other top players all in one team and couldn’t atleast reach the champions league final with PSG. I don’t have much faith in Pochettino to do great things at Chelsea, Chelsea have good players but lack a real experienced coach to manage this team and groom this players to reach full potential that is what I think Chelsea is lacking.

[hahay]

After seeing West Ham's performance in the last 4 weeks I'm even more curious about West Ham's performance in the next match. West Ham has not suffered a single defeat so far. West Ham has only had 1 draw and it is amazing that this club has won 3 times. We know last season West Ham even struggled to avoid relegation. But I think everyone was as surprised as I was when West Ham beat Chelsea and Brighton.

But the real test for West Ham will come in the coming week. Well West Ham will face Man City the champions in the Premier League. If West Ham loses then I will think West Ham is still mediocre. But if West Ham can hold Man City to a draw then I think there is something different about this club this season. What do you think about the upcoming West Ham vs Man City match?

Yes indeed, West Ham have looked great so far and yes, West Ham only failed in the opening match because in the opening match West Ham failed to win, even though West Ham only played against Bournemouth. But yes, that draw result at least can be covered with West Ham's three consecutive wins at this moment. It's right, when West Ham managed to beat Chelsea and Brighton it was a result that surprised me too. Because after all, basically Chelsea and Brighton are also at least the favorite teams to win, but West Ham managed to beat them.

Also, about the next match against Manchester City, even though West Ham is playing at home, but of course it is still a tough task for West Ham to beat Manchester City. Therefore, I think if West Ham is only able to hold Manchester City to a draw, of course it will still be a good result for West Ham.

[HajiBagi]

I think Manchester United players are cursed. After Mason Greenwood was under investigation because of sexual assault and he had bad days, this time another palyer from Manchester United, Antony, the Brazilian winger got the same problems.
They say this palyer attacked his wife while she was pregnant.
Even Brazil's national team put this player out of the teams because of that while nothing is clear yet.

Since these players will ruin the team name, I must admit that the situation is out of hand. Do Manchester United players have wives and girlfriends as well?This situation is not something that Manchester United will be sitting down and examining. I believe that some of these cases are set ups because their girlfriends and wives are typically the source of the issues. In some cases, I believe that a player's career is being ruined. For example, take the case of Mason Greenwood, which completely changed his career and caused some people to have negative opinions of him.

The only thing I can say is that Manchester United should warn all of their players to be careful because things like this always happen to Manchester United players, and if they continue to happen, the team will suffer and many of their fans will be dissatisfied. I believe it is time for these players to be cautious with some of the things they do. As a player, some people come into their life just to ruin their career or even come into their life because of their money.

Chelsea fans should not expect too much from Pochettino. I'm not saying Pochettino is a bad coach. But good enough. But he is not experienced enough to win Premier League or Champions League titles. PSG had a great squad. PSG had many star players. Even then, Pochettino could not dominate the Champions League. Even PSG's performance was not stable. However, coach Pochettino may be able to stabilize the Chelsea squad. But it is unlikely that Chelsea will win the title with Poch or that Pochettino will build a title-worthy Chelsea team. I think we will see Chelsea in the top 6 of the points table. The Chelsea team will not be able to qualify for the Champions League.

Arsenal team is in good form at the moment. The attacking players of the team are performing well. A review of the performance of the last few matches shows that the Arsenal team is in a good position.

Arsenal won their last match against Manchester United, but that does not mean they are in good form. I am not saying that Arsenal's performance is not good this season, but their performance currently can’t be compared to last season. Arsenal have played four matches, and they won three, but I can say they struggled to win the three matches they won. They are always dominating the match, but they are always finding it difficult to score, which at the end means they always end up winning with a slight goal margin. I am not really impressed by Arsenal's performance this season yet.

Of course you are not saying Pochettino is a bad coach, but in the end you are just conveying the impression that Pochettino does not have the ability to make Chelsea better or even compete in the top four. If Pochettino hears about it then I think he'll be furious, of course. Lol

Chelsea fans must be patient to see the process that Pochettino is going through in building the quality of his team in this relatively new season. Their statistics are not good, but improvements will continue to be made so that Pochettino's plans are truly successful. Nothing is impossible in football, in fact no one really believed Newcastle could qualify for the Champions League this season when they started last season.

Of course if he is belittled he will get angry. Lol
Basically any coach who comes to Chelsea will be considered unsuccessful in bringing his team, moreover their squad has great players but this is their opinion maybe it's not a Chelsea fan, if a Chelsea fan might say differently about Pochettino.

Trust the process because this will not be easy, it could even be 1 season more to stabilize the team, many people think Chelsea spend too much money on players but the quality of their players' play is poor, I think maybe it hasn't adapted well.

I'm Chelsea fan and I would urged my fellow colleagues to exercised patience because EPL is still early and we have a long way to go. Chelsea fans are running out of patience at Stamford Bridge, losing to Nottingham Forest spelled out the poor performance of the club and unveiling more struggling circumstances for them. Mauricio Pochettino is new to the system and it will probably take some time before he finally get acquainted with the entire system. Chelsea is an elite club and they expects the very best from the new coach, I wouldn't blame Pochettino for the current poor condition of the blues, they will definitely pass this poor phase.

If you look at Pochettino's tactics now, I'm not sure he will last until the end of the season at Chelsea. It is very likely that he will be fired halfway, then as usual Chelsea will again appoint an interim coach to replace Pochettino's role. This scenario happens very often in the Chelsea squad, especially under their old owner Abramovich.

However, if he can recover in the next matches, Pochettino can escape the pressure, both from the owner and the Blues fans. For now, the absence of main striker Nkunku could still be the main reason, we'll see what happens after he returns to playing.

I am one of those die hard fan of Arsenal, I have refused to stop supporting Arsenal since it's a team I have been supporting from my childhood days, so stopping my support for them will be me letting some part of my childhood histories, memories go which is something i personally believe that no one would like to happen to them.
Why am I saying this exactly ?, I say this because ordinarily, most of the time, I get really disappointed with Arsenal, like their last game with Manchester united was a complete disappointed for me even though they later won the match, I feel like they are not worthy of the last two goals they scored after the VAR cancelled a goal from Manchester united, Arsenal is not a team to really hope on, as they would disappoint you when you least expect it, but then, we must never stop wishing them well regardless .

Asernal have really slack back really even though their performed greatly in the last season almost coming first on the league table until Manchester city beat them to it at the dying time,  this make is more expectant for Asernal in this season many of the clubs fans thought that Aserrnal will automatically continue to ride on the record of the last season to maximize the opportunity that come with first round of the premier leagues to accumulate points.

But anyways since Asernal managed to win the Sunday game there is nothing much for us to complain about the club and as a long-standing fan of Asernal I advise you to always pray for the club to get it right in this season because the club records are really dropping and anything below the 1st spot on the table is a total no-no for the club in this season.

[Odusko]

I support Liverpool. Right now I dont have any prediction yet because Im still waiting for the market transfer results.

Liverpool is a very good team as it stands . The way they play this season is something else can you see the way they organised themselves it's so great. Last match against Aston Villa that you need to see the way they controlled the tempo of the game it is something else. Jurgen klopp has done very well right now. Thrashing Aston Villa 3:0. Aston Villa the only second premier league team to pick a points in away fixtures but yet were out played. Kudos to Liverpool.

Liverpool this season has improved a lot better than last season which is currently looking very strong and Klopp as Liverpool coach has managed to provide the right tactics in every game which has resulted in wins in every game unbeaten in the last few matches and Mohamed Salah as a key player Liverpool successfully contributed with a very good performance.
If I see Liverpool will continue to improve the performance of their club, especially Klopp as a coach who is always enthusiastic about raising confidence in his players and the upcoming match against Wolves and this is an opportunity to win again because Wolves is not a strong club for Liverpool.

I haven't seen much of that improvement from Liverpool os this season even as we are still at the beginning of the season, Liverpool in the last two season was doing well and better that this last concluded season and the same hangover of the underperformance have been carried over into this season which is something that Liverpool should have paid every price to avoid.
Although their have hard some positive outlook, but still, the Liverpool that we knew before can do better than this, even now that they have better quality players on the team.

[SatoPrincess]

This is where am getting upset with Eric Hag,because he shouldn't only have a good eleven but also a good substitute. So that if there is any injury,the match will still be balanced and the injured player presence wouldn't be felt in the team work. This was also what happened at the mid of season when some players got injured and the performance and results of the club wasn't good enough. I thought that he should have learnt a lesson from last season. This will be a problem to Man united goal on fighting to win any of the competitions.

In modern day football I have come to discover how important having a good squad depth is. Going 38 games without a good squad depth is nearly impossible to finish top four because when fatique sets in or injuries it will affect the team’s performance drastically. If Ten Hag has any plans of competing for the league trophy then he has to work on improving the quality of his squad by bring in top talents to boost his bench.

[SmartCharpa]

I don’t know if I am the only one who remembers that Pochettino had Messi, Neymar, Mbappe, Sergio Ramos, Verrati and many other top players all in one team and couldn’t atleast reach the champions league final with PSG. I don’t have much faith in Pochettino to do great things at Chelsea, Chelsea have good players but lack a real experienced coach to manage this team and groom this players to reach full potential that is what I think Chelsea is lacking.

In so far as he has all these players at PSG and yet can't qualify for the Champions League Final, he kept on buying players every day like they were going to win every trophy all this season. I don't see any reasons for Chelsea to keep Pochettino as their coach if they keep on losing matches always, other than to sack him. How many coaches does he see that the club has sacked previously? He continued to act in such a poor performance, however the players are not weak. Chelsea has a fantastic players, but they don't yet have the great coach, and I don't believe they can win any of their next games with the way they are playing right now.

I just do not believe anything whenever I hear a popular personality or any athlete being involved in domestic violence or sexual assault.
Because it has become a new thing for women to do this. Women nowadays try to give false allegations about the players and try to get some money off of them. So I just do not believe this whenever I hear something like this.

Considering what I think happened when they billed those players and they refused to pay the money they requested, I do not think any of this news will be confirmed. Instead, they may continue to harass them with sexual charges. Anthony need to smart on this case because he did not admit it, like way this kind of issue wanted to happen to Vinicius but he was bright smart not to allow them place the alligation on him, if Anthony stay and be watching this may affect his career, how he's out of Brazilian National team.

[ShowOff]

Arsenal team is in good form at the moment. The attacking players of the team are performing well. A review of the performance of the last few matches shows that the Arsenal team is in a good position.

Arsenal won their last match against Manchester United, but that does not mean they are in good form. I am not saying that Arsenal's performance is not good this season, but their performance currently can’t be compared to last season. Arsenal have played four matches, and they won three, but I can say they struggled to win the three matches they won. They are always dominating the match, but they are always finding it difficult to score, which at the end means they always end up winning with a slight goal margin. I am not really impressed by Arsenal's performance this season yet.

This season still has a long way to go and you will surely make a different statement after the first half of this season is over. Arsenal have good squad depth so far and they have good hopes of competing in the top flight but I agree that Arsenal have struggled to win games so far. In general Arsenal have been good, but tactically Arsenal need to improve, especially in terms of taking advantage of opportunities.

In the last 4 matches I have been really impressed with the performance of Manchester City. Pep Guardiola and his team succeeded in becoming the only team to win all the points from 4 consecutive matches. Even though De Bruyne and Pep Guardiola must be absent, Manchester City's appearance at the start of this season was very impressive. Haaland still leads the top scorers table, it's a great thing to get this team as title favorites again this season.

Therefore, I think if West Ham is only able to hold Manchester City to a draw, of course it will still be a good result for West Ham.

Currently West Ham performance is better than Chelsea or Newcastle United because West Ham was able to reach the best place at the start of this season after recording 3 consecutive wins. On the other hand, I believe that West Ham can maintain their positive pace with a more impressive level of play in the upcoming matches.

Maybe this season we will see the rise of a surprise team that can destroy the big competition in 4th place. But for that West Ham have to prove their best quality in the first half of the season, if they are able to do it well I think they will be able to provide strong competition and  closed the season in a better place this season.

[Raflesia]

Btw Chelsea's problems aren't just recent as they've been going on all last season until now
It's just that for now we just need to wait for how Pochettino steps in with the strength he has now when their players recover from injury whether Pochettino will be able to improve Chelsea's performance or not in a better direction.
I still feel that there is no need for them to change significantly but only need to improve to be better than last season it is very good for Chelsea because to change significantly after a bad performance is difficult to happen but when they can be in a better position at the end of the season it is very good for them.

The Chelsea team has been able to perform exceptionally well. The attacking players of the team have improved their performance tremendously. This team has been able to win some matches exceptionally well. Hope to do something amazing this season.

What are you talking about?  exceptionally well? Where do you see it?
Seeing Chelsea's current condition is very incompatible with the words you said because it actually sees Chelsea's current performance can still be said to be the same and stagnant as last season and does not deserve to be said to be good.
They need to try to be better than this time if they really want to be praised because 4 matches 1 win, 1 draw and 2 defeats show bad results.

Btw Chelsea's problems aren't just recent as they've been going on all last season until now
It's just that for now we just need to wait for how Pochettino steps in with the strength he has now when their players recover from injury whether Pochettino will be able to improve Chelsea's performance or not in a better direction.

Yes, indeed. We can say that Chelsea's condition is still like that, last season was also like this, and Pochettino still hasn't been able to get his squad to optimize their performance. Let's say if it's not related to management problems, but it seems that Chelsea's players haven't gotten anything that makes them excited to be motivated, Pochettino can also be said to be experiencing or encountering quite high difficulties here, so he is still unable to show his skills to optimize the players. which is in decline. Even though he is a talented and professional trainer. Well, although indeed, maybe we can say that he still needs more time to find the rhythm, tactics and strategy, as well as the most appropriate way to excite the players and also make them solid.

Pochettino must continue to try because by looking at the resources they currently have, it is actually very good, it's just a matter of developing the scheme carried out and how to manage the spirit and teamwork to be better so that their performance also follows. But until now Pochettino still can't do that.

[Rengga Jati]

Also, about the next match against Manchester City, even though West Ham is playing at home, but of course it is still a tough task for West Ham to beat Manchester City. Therefore, I think if West Ham is only able to hold Manchester City to a draw, of course it will still be a good result for West Ham.

Surely, I doubt that West Ham will win from Man City. Even though West ham has played very well so far, this time the opponent is Man City. Even though nothing is impossible in football, we are talking about strength on paper, it is clear that Man City is superior on all fronts. Maybe West can hold off Man City's attack a little with only a few goals, but I'm not sure if he will be superior to Man City.

I'm Chelsea fan and I would urged my fellow colleagues to exercised patience because EPL is still early and we have a long way to go. Chelsea fans are running out of patience at Stamford Bridge, losing to Nottingham Forest spelled out the poor performance of the club and unveiling more struggling circumstances for them. Mauricio Pochettino is new to the system and it will probably take some time before he finally get acquainted with the entire system. Chelsea is an elite club and they expects the very best from the new coach, I wouldn't blame Pochettino for the current poor condition of the blues, they will definitely pass this poor phase.

Be patient, mate. This is also what they said last season, but apparently, even some of the new coaches have not been able to make a difference and it got worse last season. Even though this season may be different, Pochettino may be able to make more appropriate tactics and also kill opponents. but so far, let's face it, the tactics haven't worked out well. Yes, it's still early season, so we have to wait a little more time so that Pochettino can really prove that he is capable of bringing big changes to Chelsea. He must immediately carry out a good evaluation and apply new tactics that best suit the squad's conditions. And what is certain is how he can also manage the motivation and mentality of his players who may have lacked enthusiasm so far.

[Furious 7]

Chelsea fans should not expect too much from Pochettino. I'm not saying Pochettino is a bad coach. But good enough. But he is not experienced enough to win Premier League or Champions League titles. PSG had a great squad. PSG had many star players. Even then, Pochettino could not dominate the Champions League. Even PSG's performance was not stable. However, coach Pochettino may be able to stabilize the Chelsea squad. But it is unlikely that Chelsea will win the title with Poch or that Pochettino will build a title-worthy Chelsea team. I think we will see Chelsea in the top 6 of the points table. The Chelsea team will not be able to qualify for the Champions League.

Even though it is very difficult to expect more from Chelsea now but at least for this first season Poche must be able to bring Chelsea to finish in a good position because if not then the dismissal like Todd did to Lampard and Potter will continue.
Indeed, he needs time to bring change but at the moment it seems Chelsea don't really expect a long time because finishing in 12th place last season was a big blow for them so inevitably they have to improve now.
Even though the top 4 with their current condition is very difficult but they must still do their best so that their position is much better than last season.

[RockBell]

Arsenal team is in good form at the moment. The attacking players of the team are performing well. A review of the performance of the last few matches shows that the Arsenal team is in a good position.

Arsenal won their last match against Manchester United, but that does not mean they are in good form. I am not saying that Arsenal's performance is not good this season, but their performance currently can’t be compared to last season. Arsenal have played four matches, and they won three, but I can say they struggled to win the three matches they won. They are always dominating the match, but they are always finding it difficult to score, which at the end means they always end up winning with a slight goal margin. I am not really impressed by Arsenal's performance this season yet.

Seriously though, Arsenal is not performing up to the standards set by their supporters. Because they believe Arteta has signed the best player who will help Arsenal improve more and achieve their goals, fans are expecting a very great performance from the team more than they did last season. However, given the way Arsenal have started this season, fans have not seen any more improvement from the team than they did last season. As Stable090 noted, Arsenal has been winning games but has struggled to score goals. However, I think it their weak attacks is what is course that their low performances of scoring goals but I see that their have improved in that attacking against Manchester United, and I hope that they keep doing so.
