Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Hyphen(-)]

No doubt about the fact that Manchester city has been good from the beginning of this season, that their loss against Wolverhampton was just a one time thing which I feel, it won't likely happen again in a long time.
Manchester city next game against Arsenal, for me I think is a work over.
That was how we praised Arsenal last season when they played against city, hoping that they could do something because the title race then was between both of them and at some point, Arsenal had an edge over city, but on meeting Manchester city, they Lost that match, and end they title race.
I cannot give much credence to arsenal against City.

Manchester City has been the toughest opponents for Arsenal in the Premier League since the arrival of Pep Guardiola as their manager, and last season, only Manchester City were able to beat Arsenal home and away which was one of the main reason Arsenal could not win the Premier League title last season.

Nevertheless, unlike last season, Arsenal were able to sign more players to have squad depth that they lack last season which is what is helping them in their last two matches as some of their key players were injured, I think this time, they can play well to the extreme and get some points against City this season.

Manchester City is also suffering some injury of some of their first eleven squad, and Rodri was suspended due to red card, I think this is an opportunity for Arsenal to win Manchester City at the Emirate so as to keep their title hope alive again this season.

Manchester City's performance at the start of the season was a bit slow. Yet they have managed to maintain continuity. They won 6 out of 7 matches. The main reason for City's slow start to the season is that two key players in the City squad, Silva and De Bruyne, have missed several matches due to injuries. However, Manchester City's performance under Guardiola was excellent.

I don’t understand what you insinuate by saying their performance at the beginning of the season is a bit slow because for a team that have won 6 out of 7 matches you wouldn’t say that about them. Maybe you might mean something else from what I’m thinking. Having said that; Manchester City’s performance even when they’ve some important key players injured having changed and they are still maintaining the top of the table, all thanks to their brilliant Coach Guardiola for putting the team together despite lacking squad depth now. Having those players back will boost the confidence of the team more and won’t mind facing any club to prevail now. I trust Manchester City with that confidence.

The latest news says Saka would be in contention for Arsenal match against Man City thus the team would be more stronger, I believe this time around Man City would find it very difficult to defeat Arsenal owing to injury to some of their key players like Kevin DeBruyne, Grealish and with Rodri out due to booking definitely those are players with huge influence on the team, Man City would face a more strengthened and formidable Arsenal and having lost their last match against Wolves thus more pressure would be on the team to avoid back to back defeat while Arsenal would try to consolidate on their EPL unbeaten record this would motivate the team to aim for a possible win against one of their rival.

Manchester City are missing a lot of vital players but will that affect them much in their next match against Arsenal? Arsenal on the other hand will be building on the confidence that they’ve won Manchester City in their last encounter in the community shield which they will bank on now. Checking at both team’s performance, I’m not sure if that could be dependent on now. They both lack some key players which obviously, Manchester City’s supersedes that of Arsenal in terms of injured players. I will want to give Arsenal a lot of hope in this match but Manchester City having Pep Guardiola on their side will make me have a rethink of it on whether they can prevail easily even when they’re the one with higher chances of winning the match now.

Well there performance this season is not really bad and even though they've lost a game, they're still the league leaders and would continue dominating for a while and if you noticed they're even doing fine in the champions league cause they're leading their in their group with about 6points, i have this believe that City  would beat Arsenal in their next match, though it's not going to be easy based on Arsenal's current performance.

 It came as a surprise to me too, if Manchester City where to even lose any game it should be that of Arsenal's but losing against Wolverhampton wasn't really expected and it even made many bettors lose their games lol, well the fact that they lost one game doesn’t write them off cause they're still very strong league contenders and might win the league again.

The defeat against Wolves in the previous week was completely unexpected because the Manchester City team had previously performed quite impressively in every match, but in that match they were really unlucky and lost 3 points in that match. Even though the defeat in the match against Wolves did not change Manchester City's position in the standings table, they still really regret the result because they failed to widen the gap with the teams below them.

In fact, in the next match, Manchester City will face Arsenal, which will be the toughest match for Manchester City because they lost two matches which might be a difficulty in this match. Apart from that, it is difficult for me to predict the result of this match because both teams are equally strong, it is even possible that Manchester City will be able to make a comeback in this match.

This photo portrait is shows both couples when they met and got married in 1966.

I highly doubt if I know anything about her but this is the body and soul who was responsible for winning Manchester United titles for years, she stood by him during the hard and good times now she's finally been called up by the most high.
I'm so damn sorry for the lose, my prayers and thoughts are for him to remain strong and gallant, we remain United even during times of problems.
May the Good Lord Grant her soul rest in his bossom. Sir Alex Ferguson should be in pains.

We all really expect a lot from Man City that they win against everyone always. Its not possible that they win all games and i think that this loss is good that it happened early so that they dont allow this to happen in the future. Man City is still the favorite to win the title and they will need to win against weaker teams for sure. Now a match against Arsenal comes after a defeat so really i wonder if they can bounce back fast

Manchester city may be the favorite to win the trophy but they have to prove it first by winning against the big teams like Arsenal.
 Apart from Arsenal's team addition by purchase of new players, other teams which performed poorly due to lack of player options in times when the key player is nursing an injury, also took advantage of the transfer market.

Westhampton, Liverpool, all still have the elements of surprise in any clash against Manchester city. We got more games to ascertain if truly Manchester city will lift the trophy this season again.

Actually when we talk about the last match when they lost in the EPL against Wolves it has returned to their form where PSG can immediately win against Leipzig in the 2nd match of the Champions League and it indicates that they already know what they have to do to get back to their true form. Instead, this word is suitable for Arsenal in my opinion whether they can return to their best form after losing in the group phase against Lens some time ago because if in the end they still make some basic mistakes from their players then Manchester City can take advantage of this bigger than Lens.
The match will definitely remain interesting, it's just that if in the end Arteta still can't find a way to improve teamwork at Arsenal, especially in this communication problem, it will clearly be difficult for them.

Bad news circulates in the streets of Manchester as hugh blow hits so hard this time. How time flies, in the loving memory of Lady Cathy Ferguson who passed away this week, the family of Ferguson have been private on this sad news that hits them deeply. Manchester United have acknowledged the passing of United best legendary manager, Old Trafford will pay tributes to her and United players, both msn and women will wear black armbands against their opponents. There's things that would be able to chilled up Alex Ferguson now, United bouncing back to winning games.

The football world has been thrown into serious mourning because of the death of Lady Cathy Ferguson who before her death was the wife of former Manchester United Manager Sir Alex Ferguson. Though late Lady Ferguson wasn't a sport football icon, but the legacies of her husband Sir Alex Ferguson who is regarded as the best British manager ever in the history of football is the major reason why her demise is gonna be felt by many football faithfuls.
It's surely a difficult moment for Sir Alex Ferguson but hopefully he's gonna get over it

Behind every successful man is a strong woman. Sir Alex Ferguson was not only a Manchester United legend but also a football legend. His wife undoubtedly played a part in his success. One day Alex Ferguson will pass away in this life. It will be a devastating day for all of us. No matter how much we honor Alex Ferguson now, it will be too little. He deserves so much more. Since he left Manchester United, Manchester United have gone downhill every season.

[nurilham]

That's still hard to predict this game with two days left and I'm sure Arteta wants to take revenge because of what they lost in the last season. Arsenal hot improved a lot and they bought many players during the summer which can help the team to have a better performance time time against Manchester City. Also, they can use their player Saka, while he was injured until a few days ago. The rates for both teams are near and in the last five meets they had, Manchester City won four games and Arsenal won one game.

Of course, Arsenal must have a big motivation to take revenge against Man City at Emirates Stadium. Moreover, Arsenal are more ready if we look at their players, all the main players are available for the match. Meanwhile Man City seems likely to miss 1 crucial player, Kevin De Bruyne. Missing De Bruyne probably brings big impact to Man City game because De Bruyne is the player who arranges the Man City attacking. So, I think Arsenal can be more superior in this match. I really hope Arteta will put Gabriel Jesus as the striker since the early match. He probably knows well how to beat Man City. 

[Adams0001]

Manchester City's performance at the start of the season was a bit slow. Yet they have managed to maintain continuity. They won 6 out of 7 matches. The main reason for City's slow start to the season is that two key players in the City squad, Silva and De Bruyne, have missed several matches due to injuries. However, Manchester City's performance under Guardiola was excellent.

Yeah sure but Manchester city later peak form, so actually wining 6 matches at of 7 is a commendable performance, of course behind every successful club lies a good coach, so all thanks to Pep Guardiola who has being the great pilot that has lead Manchester City to it continues success with his excellent coaching patterns, I actually have a strong feeling that Manchester city will still win the premier League again this season, even without the injured players they will still get to there destination because all the guys are good, however there next match against Arsenal is going to be a tough truly because Arsenal are also in a good form this season but anyhow i have a strong feeling that Manchester city is going to win the match.

Football is unpredictable. I don't think Manchester City will be able to win the Premier League this season because the other clubs are performing well, am Very sure they will defeat Manchester City, as I see it, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Tottenham can win the Premier League this season because these three clubs are performing well, Manchester City and Arsenal game will be a very tough match, the game can be tough for man-city because some of their players are injured, and Arsenal can have the opportunity to defeat them on the match, if Rodrigo can come back, I will say Manchester City will have hope to destroy them, but I trust Pep Guardiola even if he can't win the match he can find draw but he will be hard they should draw on that match, because both clubs are good this season, but Manchester City is better Let's see what will happens this weekend such a difficult game to watch.

[Velvet78]

Chelsea's game up next is against Burnley away. Chelsea's win over Fulham the last time was really impressive and they really needed that one. But we need to see more wins from Chelsea side like a winning streak if possible. I think Burnley is just the kind of opponent they would like at the moment.

Burnley have made a poor start to the season as well. I know Chelsea are struggling with injuries on one hand but the current lineup must still be enough to beat Burnley in the same way. I think they can keep away Burnley from scoring a goal but hopefully their scoring productivity would be similar to the Fulham game.

Well everyone have their opinion but in my opinion i think City are going to retain the title this season, i still see them as very strong title contenders based on their position currently, though their performance might not be as good as last seasons but City are still the league leaders and i believe we'll see them doing better when their star play Kelvin Debruyne recovers from injury cause it obvious that City are missing him in their squad, especially Haaland who benefited from his assists last season.

 Well the competition this season is amongst Manchester City,  Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham, these are the top 4 clubs that have the best performance so far this season and i think it's either city or Arsenal that might win the league.

This match is a big match to watch because they are two big teams. Considering the fact that Man City has only lost one game since the beginning of this season in EPL, this gives them a better opportunity to win the gane because I don't think that Arsenal will have the morale to win Man City even though De Bruyne will not be playing. Man city has so many superstars that will be able to deliver the winning to City and I trust them on this match. On the other hand, if Arsenal can use the advantage of playing at Emirate stadium, they can win the game because they will be playing in front of their fans that will cheer them up. which will less the tension in their performance. I see the match to be unpredictable.

But we need to see more wins from Chelsea side like a winning streak if possible. I think Burnley is just the kind of opponent they would like at the moment.

Chelsea should be able to continue with their impressive performance, i don't think Burnley should give Chelsea a difficult moment in the match. Chelsea played well in their last match, they won against Fulham, which I am sure will motivate them. I am sure they will do everything possible to win their match against Burnley. I have hope in Chelsea to win the match, I think their new coach is already getting a perfect lineup for the club. Chelsea are always dominating most of their matches, but their attack is just too weak, they are always finding it difficult to score. But we saw how they played in their last match, there was a great difference in the match.

[Leviathan.007]

Things are not good in Manchester United and even their former player, Gary Neville started talking about them, he said Manchester United is a graveyard for coaches and players and I think he is not very wrong about this. During the last years, Manchester United tried to have many players and they spent lots of money to hire players from other teams but in the end, they couldn't get the results they wanted to get also some palyer who joined Manchester United could have good performances after that.

City might be one of the best in terms of competing for the title but one thing I haven't seen is that I have not seem a season that comes and goes without Manchester City not being in form, they're just good and that's what other club don't have that's why they're better in the league.
Manchester City current position doesn't show if they won't defend their title or not and as it stands the players that ain't in the team are not even showing. Pep Guardiola is a coach that always have back up and he knows how to improvise when things ain't going his way, like the absence of KDB, he got one of the better player Phil Foden to play KDB's part.
As for teams who are likely to win the league or give City another headache I can't for sure mention those two London clubs, Tottenham and Arsenal. They're never serious but let's see how this season will be like for them.

I still continue to consider Arsenal a more obvious competitor for Manchester City in the fight for the league title than Tottenham, despite the unexpectedly successful start of the team this season, and such a start certainly came as a surprise to both the players and the head coach of the team and the club management. Another question is that the element of surprise will come to naught in any case and the rivals will have a different attitude and will pick up the keys and then we will see if there is something specific behind all this or it's just a lucky coincidence.

But we need to see more wins from Chelsea side like a winning streak if possible. I think Burnley is just the kind of opponent they would like at the moment.

Im hoping pochettino to perform with the same squad as the previous match. There's no need to do another change again once pochettino has found one of its best strategy and formation used by chelsea. Just put palmer as attacking midfielder coz he is really helping a lot.
Chelsea may be able to win with narros scores but who know. As long as the club is going to win the game and that's fine. I would not argue about the performance from chelsea if club will able to win the game.
Taking three points and climbing back up again is the main aim here. There's nothing better than seeing chelsea to acquire three points once it was facing mediocre club.
Chelsea will have very hard fixtures soon. The won against burnley can be a preparation for chelsea to face it.

Burnley have made a poor start to the season as well. I know Chelsea are struggling with injuries on one hand but the current lineup must still be enough to beat Burnley in the same way. I think they can keep away Burnley from scoring a goal but hopefully their scoring productivity would be similar to the Fulham game.

Burley had no good probability to win the game against chelsea but let's see that. Sometimes chelsea played so poorly once pochettino was changing the strategy again. I hope he will be leaving from what happened in the previous matches.
Pochettino shall keep use the same strategy. Broja was good enough.
