Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[SatoPrincess]

Chelsea are beginning to look like a team. The Chelsea squad I saw that played Arsenal last week was pretty good. What Chelsea need is a striker can convert their chances to goals. Chelsea next 5 fixtures are not looking like games Chelsea will be able to win, they will facing Spurs, Manchester City, Newcastle, Brighton, Manchester United in the premier league. Which of these fixtures do you think Chelsea can win?

Pochettino admitted that Chelsea had problems scoring goals after the loss to Brentford at home. Now I'm tired of seeing Chelsea. Currently, Pochettino is still in a deadlock with Chelsea. He couldn't get the job done. Besides talking, Pochettino cannot do anything.
Difficulties surround this team when, in the next two rounds, they will face top teams Tottenham and Man City. After that, they continued to face Newcastle United, Brighton and Man Utd. If they play with their current erratic performance, the home team at Stamford Bridge could completely sink to the bottom of the Premier League table.

Indeed, if you look at this match, Brentford deserved to win. Currently Chelsea is a mid-table team. Many young players, inexperience, no balance, no leaders, no stability. Pochettino still has a lot of work to complete if Chelsea wants to recover and continue to develop their game, especially the front line.

It is very difficult for Chelsea to win at Stamford Bridge, this is something that is heartbreaking, even Brentford, since being promoted back to the EPL, Chelsea always lose.
2021/22 : Chelsea 1-4 Brentford
2022/23 : Chelsea 0-2 Brentford
2023/24 : Chelsea 0-2 Brentford

Chelsea's gap with the top 4 is 8 points. The season is still long, and anything can happen. Chelsea's goal this season may not be the championship. But a ticket to the Champions League is something Pochettino and his team should try to do. In round 11, Chelsea will have to be a guest on the field of great rival Tottenham. Pochettino will have the opportunity to reunite with his old team when Tottenham are strong at the top of the table after 10 rounds with an unbeaten record. If he continues to lose, what will Pochettino blame?

You shall need to wait a few years to make sure manchester united will be making some huge improvements in the club. In fact, manchester united has been facing setback since a few years ago. The progress was not even moving forward.
Manchester united was always failed in getting the right coach since sir alex has gone. Manchester united was only good when sir alex was coaching the club but since he was no there anymore and the situation is very different.,
Manchester united seemed lost its credibility as one of big club in the EPL. Chelsea also have the same problem like manchester united at this moment. These clubs lost their true identity since the new owners were taking the clubs.

Chelsea has also become one of strongest team in europe under russian billinaire but everything changed 180 degree once abramovich was selling chelsea.
The new owned has also strong ego. He was only destroying the club even worst with any of his decision.

At present, Chelsea and Man UTD are having the same problem in terms of owners; they are desperate to get titles and any coach that takes on the managerial role is supposed to do that with a flick of the wrist. It's not everyone who is gifted with the Midas touch like Pep or Mourinho and as such will need to be given time. In Erik's case, he manages Man UTD like he did Ajax and the two clubs can't be compared because Man UTD is a far bigger club than Ajax and the players there ought to be treated with respect. Another problem affecting the club is they aren't working as a unit and Erik has a big role to play in that.

I was a little surprised by what Newcastle achieved in their match, but it was a result they could achieve in this match.  Initially I predicted that Newcastle would be able to win this match, but apparently not.
Wolves FC played well and they deserved this result with the game they showed. They fell behind twice, but they were able to equalize and make the match end without a win for either team.
Newcastle have to settle for this result, and this draw is only their second in the Premier League this season.

I didn't expect Newcastle to win yesterday night and was surprised when I saw that they were winning until late in the game.I know that Newcastle is a better team than Wolves but in midweek they had a really unlucky game against Dortmund and most likely the tiredness was felt in the game of yesterday and most likely that was the cause of them not being able to win yesterday as in normal conditions I am pretty sure they would have won easily.

For tonight game though we have the Manchester derby and any team can win in this game but I think we all agree that most likely Manchester City will be the winner.

But indeed if you look from another angle then this is the EPL where all matches cannot be predicted about what will happen.
Every week in the EPL is always filled with things like this and indeed this is not something strange because in the end regardless of whether the club will be favoured or not matches in the EPL cannot be fully predicted easily including Newcastle in this match.
But indeed sometimes Wolves become one of the clubs that cannot be predicted because previously besides Newcastle, they were also able to win with an unusual score against Manchester City but what happens when they play with clubs that are actually quite balanced they always struggle.

I wouldn't say the MU game was too weak, rather Manchester City were just a pretty strong opponent. Judging by the stats, Manchester United still tried to attack and put shots towards the goal, but all misses. The first five places in the table go very nicely, close to each other and the funny thing is that out of the five most defeats are MS(2), and yet they are in the top five

If they are not weak, it is impossible for Man City to score 3 goals. Maybe they were quite aggressive up front and made several attacks, but they were not accurate and strong enough to penetrate Man City's defense. Not only that, on the other hand, their back line could be said to be very poor. Just look at their defeats so far, not only against Man City but also other clubs. Even out of 10 matches, they lost 5, half the number. It's been a long time since Man United was truly consistent in maintaining and improving their performance, and we seem to miss those days.

Tottenham actually proved that they haven't had many problems so far without Kane, I mean Son Heung-min has been a worthy replacement to help Tottenham win a lot of games. Son Heung-min has scored 8 goals and 1 assist in 10 matches currently, but overall Tottenham also have equally good players in various positions.

We can say that because of this, Son has the opportunity to show his performance is much better. He replaced Kane and it turned out that he could prove his abilities very well. The effectiveness of the attack is quite impressive. If we look at his performance so far, you could say that this actually opens up opportunities for him to shine even more at Tottenham.

To a great extent, it may seem as if Chelsea and Manchester United are having similar problems in the premier league but then, Manchester United still have better hopes compared to Chelsea, but both clubs may likely not end the season among the top 3.


The highest bot Chelsea and Manchester can get out of this season is to either settle between the top 5 clubs or worse still, one of them may slide further to the top 10.

If they play with their current erratic performance, the home team at Stamford Bridge could completely sink to the bottom of the Premier League table.

I often say it in several posts in this thread, the truth is that Chelsea has a pretty good squad. some of the young players they have have the potential to develop further, but not all players. Talking about the match against Brentford, previously I referred to several line-up predictions. Most likely, Poche will rotate some of his players. There are several scenarios and one of them is playing Nicolas Jackson as the main starter.
Honestly, I hope Poche doesn't do it. and as usual, Chelsea implemented a 4-2-3-1 pattern, unfortunately Nicolas Jackson was included in the staring eleven as a central striker. Since looking at the line-up of the players who will play, my feeling is that Chelsea will lose this match. and yep, my guess was right.

I don't want to say, that Nicolas Jackson is not a talented player. but let's see, from his 9 matches he was only able to score 2 goals. It's clear, isn't it, that Poche needs an established, pure striker, who he can rely on to score goals for his team's squad. even though, the coach could have rotated some of his players. for example, like in the match against Arsenal.
In the match against Brentford, I bet on Over 2.5 goals with odds @1.7+. At least, this match will produce 3 goals, whether Chelsea wins or Brentford. Unfortunately, Chelsea was unable to score a single goal. Well, the next matches will be even tougher for Chelsea with a team of tough opponents. To get around this, Pochettino had to implement another strategy. Plus, if the player doesn't show a good performance, Poche must have the courage to let the player sit on the bench like the center forward they have. Maybe that way, Chelsea has a chance to perform even better.

Obviously, the situation on the offensive line is not good. In the last transfer window, he bought Christopher Nkunku and Nicolas Jackson. Nkunku has proven himself to be the top goalscorer in the Bundesliga but has been injured since the beginning of the season. Nicolas Jackson needs to focus more during matches. Jackson needs to be more capable to become the numben-one goalscorer in the Chelsea squad. Can he guarantee to score 15-20 goals per season?
With the attack being ineffective, it is likely that Pochettino will add another striker in the next winter transfer window. I think Ivan Toney and Victor Osimhen are suitable names for this role.

They do have similar problems in regards to the results they are getting from their games and they also have similar problems in regard to their offensive game, but I think that their coaches have their very own set of problems. Pochettino doesn't have the quality to build great teams. He was doing quite well when he managed Tottenham Hotspurs, but thinking about what he has done with PSG during his time there, it was bad. Ten Hag may need a few more years in the Premier League until a final judgment can be made, but I think that the league is one level too high for both of them.

Between Chelsea and Manchester United, both are like be in similar situations right now but I think that Chelsea is a bit coming out of their situation while Man Utd is getting worse. Man Utd has lost quite several matches this season and looking at the overall situation, I don't think that any improvement will happen any time soon. I See Chelsea having more chances of qualifying for the Europa Cup than Man Utd.

I don't really know who to blame in the last game Chelsea played against Brent.  Chelsea stated the game well which they dominated the game in the beginning of the first half, they were able to create opportunities that didn't work out for them but they couldn't continue with the way they started. I won't put blame on Pochettino,  if the players had continued the way they started I don't think the game would have ended with such result. I put the blame on the players because their performance was terrible in the second half. Chelsea will be facing strong teams in the coming games it won't be easy with them.

Pochettino has talented players, but it is a new team. They are competitive but still need something. I think the blockbuster contracts are gradually adapting. With the return of striker Nkunku, the top scorer in the Bundesliga, fans can hope that Chelsea's bright prospects are still ahead. And it is essential to create a happy atmosphere between the fans and the players. Pochettino needs cooperation between fans and the team. I'm seeing fans putting pressure on their strikers. In the loss to Brentford, Nicolas Jackson was insulted by fans while playing.

It is very difficult for Chelsea to win at Stamford Bridge, this is something that is heartbreaking, even Brentford, since being promoted back to the EPL, Chelsea always lose.
2021/22 : Chelsea 1-4 Brentford

Chelsea's gap with the top 4 is 8 points. The season is still long, and anything can happen. Chelsea's goal this season may not be the championship. But a ticket to the Champions League is something Pochettino and his team should try to do. In round 11, Chelsea will have to be a guest on the field of great rival Tottenham.

If he continues to lose, what will Pochettino blame?

There are still many hard fixtures to come for chelsea. The match against totenham, city, Mu and many more. It looks so stupid to see that how brentford keeps dominate chelsea since a few years ago. The low blocks have become the main weakness of chelsea but it also surprises me to see how brentford can implement the low blocks so consistent in any game., chelsea can do nothing against it caused by the club has no creative midfielder that can make a surprise pass to the its forwarders.
Chelsea's performance has been declining so hard compared to the a few years ago. The performance of chelsea after abramovich was leaving from there is so weak. The club likes become clueless and pointless about what they shall do during the game.
I think that this bad trend will still continue till the end of season. It's really hard to find someone who is capable enough to handling the club especially in pushing the mentality from the club to be in the another level at this time.

I think the only old player Pochettino will reunite with when Chelsea plays against Tottenham is Son. The rest of the old players, I think must have found their way to other clubs. What the Tottenham team is made up of currently is a new set of players plus a new couch, which I can say that Pochettino doesn't know their playing pattern.

After Chelsea's November matches, we don't know whether the points gap for Chelsea to reach the top 4 positions would add more points gap or reduce to the additional 8 points gap already.

For the November matches for Chelsea, it will be difficult to have them win all of their tough matches for November month. I can see them having a win, a draw, and losing two matches

Chelsea fans need to show more patience and believe in their team. Pochettino has already proved himself at Tottenham, having built a nice team with not the most huge financial resources and which reached the Champions League final. Now Pochettino will have more opportunities, including financially, to build a successful team for a long period, such as the one Guardiola built with Manchester City. But everything takes time, and therefore Chelsea fans need to calm down and wait at least until the end of the season, only then it will be possible to draw at least some preliminary conclusions.

I have to say I don't trust Pochettino. Pochettino has coached big teams like PSG. He had a lot of talented and star players in his squad. Even then, PSG's performance was not very good. PSG's performance was completely erratic. The team could not consistently perform well. And it's the same for Chelsea this season. There is no shortage of talented players in Chelsea's squad. Even then the team is not doing well. There is definitely a failure of the coach. And if this continues, the Chelsea management will be forced to sack Pochettino. If not in the top 6 of the table, maybe we won't see Pochettino as Chelsea coach next season.

 At present, Chelsea and Man UTD are having the same problem in terms of owners; they are desperate to get titles and any coach that takes on the managerial role is supposed to do that with a flick of the wrist. It's not everyone who is gifted with the Midas touch like Pep or Mourinho and as such will need to be given time.

True and this is what im thinking about regarding chelsea and manchester united at this moment. These clubs are facing similar problem. I shall not even need to mention it but the problem was not only in the amateur players but its coach as well.
Manchester united has bigger chance to recover its performance compared with chelsea. The problem faced by chelsea was only on the mentality from its players while Mu was on its defenders.
Chelsea will need longer time to recover its performance and the mentality from the players too. It will be a hard job for pochettino to do that caused by we do know that how bad and inconsistent chelsea is right now.

This club played so average and mediocre against brentford.

The highest bot Chelsea and Manchester can get out of this season is to either settle between the top 5 clubs or worse still, one of them may slide further to the top 10.

top 5 may still even very difficult to be achieved by chelsea. Chelsea has got a great chances but its players are being so wasteful by missing any opportunities in scoring the goals to make the club win the game.
The strikers are always become the classic problems owned by chelsea. The club was doing something wrong by signing stupid young player ratherthan experienced player.

[bayu7adi]

One would easily think with the absence of Harry Kane, Tottenham would do worse, but in reality, they seemed to have fired up their average and performance to more than compensate for missing Harry.

The league is still running at 26% (10 of 38 matches), and it is actually quite difficult to maintain stable performance throughout this season. The beginning is not the end, and currently Tottenham are in their best condition. The previous season, Tottenham's performance had declined in last weeks, with only a 40% win rate from the last 5 matches.

Losing Harry Kane apparently did not have a negative impact on the team's performance. In fact, I see Son Heung-min increasingly showing his talent when given greater opportunities. To date, Son has scored 8 goals in 10 league matches. Spurs can learn from this situation that without Harry Kane, they are still able to start the season well.

That means, the key to Spurs' success isn't Kane... it might very well be Ange who's making a more significant contribution.

I don't think we will see Chelsea finish in the top 5 of the points table this season. Aston Villa is now in the fifth position of the points table. Aston Villa are now 10  points ahead of Chelsea.  Aston villa is able to perform very well. At the same time, the performances of Brighton, Newcastle and Manchester United  are also much stronger than the chelsea team. C helsea are likely to see the team in the 7th-9th place in the oil. However  it is very unlikely that we will see Chelsea in fifth or sixth place in the table. This  team is not able to play well. The Chelsea team  has not been able to stabilize the performance yet. Their  performance is still very erratic  and quite weak.

One would easily think with the absence of Harry Kane, Tottenham would do worse, but in reality, they seemed to have fired up their average and performance to more than compensate for missing Harry.

Tottenham Hotspur's remarkable performance has dispelled the doubts of their fans who depend on Harry Kane for favorable outcomes. Everything has transformed at the moment, with Son Heung-Min in the picture, this time as captain and leading his club to triumph. Tottenham's performance has improved as a result of Harry Kane's transfer to a Bundesliga team; they are currently ranked first in the EPL table. Angelos Postecoglou is having one of his best months as Spurs head coach, having won the MOTM award twice in a row, and the Spurs possess additional records to break this season.

I doubt with Pochettino capacity will bring Chelsea finish on top fourth standings, current position on 11th placed and remaining 11 points behind Liverpool its look difficult for Chelsea get top fourth standings finish in this season. Chelsea loss points with many unpredictable teams such as Brentford last match and loss with many mediocre teams. Upcoming match against top standing teams Tottenham Hotspur will make difficult for Chelsea get three points. I don't sure with Chelsea opportunity this season will finish on top fourth position and return to play in Champion League or not because have played 10 matches still inconsistency performance.

Difficult position for Chelsea on three matches later after facing Tottenham Hotspur have waiting by Manchester City and Newcastle United are team on the top performed right now.

[SquirrelJulietGarden]

One would easily think with the absence of Harry Kane, Tottenham would do worse, but in reality, they seemed to have fired up their average and performance to more than compensate for missing Harry.

It is reasonable thinking because Harry Kane is their main striker, a source of goals, assists and mediocre for their team in many seasons. It makes sense to think his departure and absence in the team will cause serious problems for Tottenham. Fortunately, they still have Son who has been replacing Harry Kane very well as their main scorer. In addition, they also bought James Madison from Leicester City who plays a play-maker for Tottenham and somewhat also replaces Harry Kane with his vision and great passes.

Tottenham Hotspur's remarkable performance has dispelled the doubts of their fans who depend on Harry Kane for favorable outcomes. Everything has transformed at the moment, with Son Heung-Min in the picture, this time as captain and leading his club to triumph. Tottenham's performance has improved as a result of Harry Kane's transfer to a Bundesliga team; they are currently ranked first in the EPL table.

Totenham were both smart to buy Son from Hamburg many seasons ago and they are also lucky to have a very talented but professional player like the Korean player. He is good with team working and so professional in taking care of his body as well as always plays with high ambition. The Asian player is good with two legs so that he can make great finishes with both legs without big differences.

Angelos Postecoglou is having one of his best months as Spurs head coach, having won the MOTM award twice in a row, and the Spurs possess additional records to break this season.

I did not know about Postegoglu before he came to Tottenham and made a great surprise with them so far. What the coach is achieving even more impressive than what Claudio Ranieri did with Leicester City many seasons ago. At least Claudio already managed some big clubs before he won Premier League with Leicester City.

At present, Chelsea and Man UTD are having the same problem in terms of owners; they are desperate to get titles and any coach that takes on the managerial role is supposed to do that with a flick of the wrist. It's not everyone who is gifted with the Midas touch like Pep or Mourinho and as such will need to be given time. In Erik's case, he manages Man UTD like he did Ajax and the two clubs can't be compared because Man UTD is a far bigger club than Ajax and the players there ought to be treated with respect. Another problem affecting the club is they aren't working as a unit and Erik has a big role to play in that.

Manchester United looked to escaped their crisis in the last season but again, they show that they are still fluctuating between good and bad performances, good and bad season. At least I think they have better conditions than Chelsea that are in very big crisis and will need more time than Manchester United to come back to top four of Premier League.

Manchester United changed their strategy and decided to put their belief on Ten Hag but maybe they will need to give him more patience as well as bet that he will make his good job for the club.
