Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[skarais]

~~~

Manchester City are starting to look inconsistent in the Premier League, the results achieved in the last three matches have seen them drop to third place. Losing six points in three matches is not a good achievement for a team like Manchester City, they have also conceded very easily recently. The fragility of the defense is a serious problem for Manchester City, the midfield and attack line can still be relied on, but the weakness of the back line makes it difficult for Manchester City to achieve maximum results. Guardiola must not allow the conditions experienced by Manchester City to continue in the next match, if they do not win over Aston Villa, then they will be even further behind Arsenal who are leading the standings.

Basically Manchester City are more likely to win the game, but you are right that they lose concentration in defense when the game is almost over. Manchester City have conceded 8 goals in 3 tough games against Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham, so it is true that Pep Guardiola must be able to overcome his defensive problems if he still wants to retain the title.

In this match, the referee who led the match was considered to have made a controversial decision. He thwarted Manchester City's best chance in the few minutes before the match ended and of course I think this has added to the list of problems for referees who officiate Premier League matches. He asked Haaland to continue playing when he was fouled, but when Grealish was getting closer to the goal the referee blew the whistle and stopped the match, and really that was a questionable decision.

Tottenham deserves every form of applaud because not only did they get a draw but they did put up a really good fight against Manchester city in the eithad stadium which happens to be their string hold of victory but the spurs defiled the records in what seemed like their worse form, this is a good signal with the spurs they they are definitely getting back on their feet and a signal for other teams that they can still challenge Manchester city regardless of their might .

Manchester City are not in form as regarded, they was shocked by the performance pulled by The visitors, they did try their best but couldn't net a goal, instead they settle for a draw tie which is totally what they expected. Perhaps Manchester City will push harder in next match. Tottenham Hotspur coach, Ange Postecoglou deserves his flowers after a draw with Pep Guardiola and his firing squad at Etihad Stadium. We didn't see that coming, the performance of Spurs was top flight level and they're now the pressuring to bounce back to the system.

I sure, it seems no one thinks Manchester City will get a draw in the last three matches in a row in the Premier League. Because after all, Manchester City last three matches were played against Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham because I sure, in previous predictions Manchester City was the favorite to win those matches. Especially regarding Chelsea and Tottenham because ya, at this moment they are experiencing a decline in performance and/or experiencing performance instability. But ya, maybe the result was quite surprising too, because in the end Manchester City failed to get 3 points in 3 consecutive matches.

It was great to see Everton finally win again after the last time they did it was against Crystal Palace two weeks earlier. Last night's win against Nottingham was also special because they needed points to move out of the relegation zone after being deducted 10 points some time ago.

Against Nottigham in an away game is certainly not easy for Everton but this narrow victory will definitely pump up the enthusiasm of the whole team to get a better finishing place for this season. Despite the problems that Everton have faced, I think they still deserve to be in the EPL until next season and now it's just a matter of how they maintain their current performance in the next match.

Deducted points seems makes Everton situations was very hard and their manager Sean Dyche has been realized this because now Everton have to hard struggle to avoiding relegation zone but the winning result against Nottingham Forest has showing they can able to bounce back and Everton currently has 7 points and they had 2 difference points with Luton which is the team in the 17th place and actually relegation zone also very interesting to watched especially after Burnley get the winning result from Sheffield United yesterday because whether it Burnley, Luton and Everton currently they have to fight to avoiding that zone but Everton wasn't lucky because this month they had tight schedule that after fight against Newcastle this Friday then after that match Everton have to faced Chelsea

[snipie]

For the club to progress, it has to be a collective effort and mainly, the club management should quit taking things lightly, being greedy and not putting the growth of the club forward else if they continue like this, not only will Man UTD lose value, there won't be much zeal to watch them when they have games.

Manchester United don't lack rich ownership, good management and skillful players, however this club didn't succeed from a long time. Their fans are waiting for a trophy since 2017 Europa League title under Mourinho and last EPL title in 2013 under Sir Alex Ferguson's. EFL Cup isn't that important comparing to EPL and European competitions obviously.
I think Ten Hag is a good coach but he failed so far to upgrade his team to be challenging for top clubs. He sometimes fail to collect three points from mid-table teams..
Manchester United are in the 7th position thanks to Brighton defeat but next game vs Chelsea isn't reassuring and they can drop in ranking if they lose it.

Those three matches drew by Man City is a perfect indication that the squad is not formidable and strong enough this season, recall they lost to Arsenal and Wolves in a match many soccer analyst and pundits predicted an outright win for Man City yet lost that match, frankly Man City isn't a sure league title contender this season because as an aspiring contender they dhould be very consistent in winning their matches and it's obvious they would find it difficult to defeat some mid table clubs this season due to their inability to beat Liverpool, Chelsea whom they defeated almost four times last season in all competition, Arsenal whom they also defeated three times last season, though the league is still in early stage I hope they up their game so as to be back into reckoning in the league.

Newcastle was definitely better than Manchester United and deserved to get three points out of this game. Ten Hag has to be fired by the new owner of Man United.

Man United showed that their players were lazy not ready to work hard when Rashford got the chance. Just look he was only able to shoot on target once until the second half was over. This is clearly a  disappointment that embarrasses Man United.  Erik Ten Hag is completely unsuitable to lead Man United and he must realize that.

Man United is still doing terrible, if they didn't lose they would be tied to fifth position and now they are at seventh position behind Newcastle, winning this game would have been quite important for them but it didn't happned. They really need to figure out how they could get better, Aston Villa is fourth, do we really think that Man United and Aston Villa are both playing fairly and equally?

Aston Villa has so much lesser amount of money to build a squad with, they barely spend the whole season buying players for a single player that United buys, unequal amounts, and yet United is doing worse, that's basically saying United is underachieving their season so far and needs to do a lot better, they may even be out of European competitions all together soon.

It is not only about the position they have today, I think this could also be the beginning of the end of their goals for this season. The next game is against Chelsea and they are tough to have an opinion on. Perhaps they can beat Manchester United at Old Trafford or they have a weak game again, but if Manchester United loses that game and they miss to qualify for both the next round of the Champions League and the Europa League, I assume that the time has come for ten Hag to leave the club. I think we will find out before Christmas.

Manchester United's narrow defeat at Newcastle on Saturday has further explained how clueless the club's current manager is at the moment and why he lacks the tactical ability to help the club have a good campaign. I'm still surprised to see that he's yet to be sacked as the club's manager despite his poor performance with the quality players at his disposal. United needs a manager with a better tactical and technical experience than what Erik Ten Hag has been giving them since the start of the season. I don't think he has what it takes to improve the performance of the team and that's why u think he should be relieved of his duties at the Old Trafford club.

It was great to see Everton finally win again after the last time they did it was against Crystal Palace two weeks earlier. Last night's win against Nottingham was also special because they needed points to move out of the relegation zone after being deducted 10 points some time ago.

Despite the problems that Everton have faced, I think they still deserve to be in the EPL until next season and now it's just a matter of how they maintain their current performance in the next match.

In recent times Everton had been at the bottom of the standings, but after a 1-0 victory over Notitngham Forest, at least the victory managed to slightly raise Everton's ranking to 18th position. And this is the third consecutive away win for Everton. And for the next match I am a little pessimistic because in the next match they have to face Newcasstle, which for the time being "The Magpies" are ranked 6th in the standings. and in the previous match The Magpies performed quite well against the red devils yesterday. And whether the Toffes, which is Sean Dyche's club, will be able to fight The Magpies, which is Eddie Howe's club. And will Everton be able to move back up the rankings? We'll see. Because I'm quite curious .. hihi

The score didn't matter a lot for everton. As long as it can gather three points from its opponent and it's already enough for everton. In fact, everton needs to get out from the relegation zone as soon as possible.
The only possible thing to beat the weak team like burnley. Everton is going to have hard fixtures in the upcoming weeks. It will against newcastle then chelsea. I will expect everton to get zero points from those matches but, everton can use golden opportunity to face burnley which was also the weakest club in the EPL. Burnley has been successfully destroying sheffield last days and i see that will become an opportunity for everton to get three points from burnley.
Everton needs only to win the game. It doesn't even matter how many scores to be made in any of everton game. Three points are a must for everton or at least not missing points in any matches.

Good to see Everton back to winning ways again and pick up points in the English Premier League after they were stripped off ten points from their accumulated points for breaching financial rules in the league, a decision they've appealed and are still to get the final verdict from the appeal. Everton are currently occupying the 18th position of the league table and two points behind 17th placed Luton but I think they have the needed quality of players to survive in the league at the end of the season

[Gaza13]

Manchester United are in the 7th position thanks to Brighton defeat but next game vs Chelsea isn't reassuring and they can drop in ranking if they lose it.

I also see that their performance this year is very worrying, of course if Chelsea is consistent in the match they will steal points at their opponent's base, this will again create a bad image for Manchester United. If they want to appear in other leagues next year, of course they have to maintain their current position until the end of this league, otherwise their hopes of appearing in other leagues will be dashed.

It is clear that if United fails to qualify for the round of 16 or the Europa League play offs, Ten Hag time at United is over, simply put, management will have to fire him. The match against Chelsea was quite strange for me, considering the ups and downs in performance of both clubs this season.

Both Pochettino and Ten Hag are under enormous pressure at the moment, and neither is immune from criticism from fans. It's understandable, considering the money they spend on players but we don't see much progress. I don't think United and Chelsea will reach the top four, but regardless, we'll see how they play at Old Trafford.

Personally, I can't predict who will win this time. Playing at home doesn't guarantee a win for United, and Chelsea inconsistency frustrates me. They held City to a draw but then lost to Newcastle. Overall it is very difficult to understand these two elite clubs.

I was not surprised by Manchester united performance in their last match, i don't expect any special performance from them since i know they are inconsistent, I knew Newcastle will be a difficult team to win for Manchester united in their last match. Manchester United's next match will be against Chelsea, two inconsistent teams. Let's see what's going to happen in the match, seriously, I still believe Chelsea might end up winning the match, or let's see if Chelsea will be able to draw Manchester United in the match, the same way they have been playing draws against other strong clubs, but the match will be a difficult one for the two clubs.

Manchester United don't look like a team capable of competing for the title this season, in fact I'm not sure they can qualify for the Champions League next season if there is no improvement in performance. Ten Hag has not yet found the best form for his team, where inconsistency in performance is the problem why Manchester United is in a difficult situation. Not sure what he'll do the rest of the season, but give him a chance to try his best.

Manchester United can certainly be better if they can bring in some quality players. They have good midfielders like Casemiro, Eriksen and Bruno, but it's not enough when the other players are not equally supportive. The team's performance is chaotic and they are having difficulty winning many games, so of course there must be an improvement in the squad or fire the coach and replace him with a Spanish coach.

[Frankolala]

I sure, it seems no one thinks Manchester City will get a draw in the last three matches in a row in the Premier League. Because after all, Manchester City last three matches were played against Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham because I sure, in previous predictions Manchester City was the favorite to win those matches. Especially regarding Chelsea and Tottenham because ya, at this moment they are experiencing a decline in performance and/or experiencing performance instability. But ya, maybe the result was quite surprising too, because in the end Manchester City failed to get 3 points in 3 consecutive matches.

I think that those results has shown that Manchester City have declined in performance, for them to draw three consecutive matches. Gaudiola needs to motivate his men if they have started getting weak in defending the title so that they cando better than drawing matches.

All those three clubs will be happy that they were able to share points with Manchester City unlike last season that City was on the winning side. Arsenal will remain on top for long, if Liverpool don't take over the first position from them because Liverpool is in a good form currently. Manchester City, I can't predict their performance anymore, but I know that they will win their next match.

Ten Hag has not yet found the best form for his team, where inconsistency in performance is the problem why Manchester United is in a difficult situation. Not sure what he'll do the rest of the season, but give him a chance to try his best.

This current Manchester united team is not in the title race. The are not showing the signs of a team that is serious to contend for the title. Where will I start from? Their inconsistency or Manager always having problems with his players? Or the management criss rocking the club? Manchester united problem too much. No club will ever do well in the field if there is not effective management of the club.

Manchester united can certainly be better if they can bring in some quality players. They have good midfielders like Casemiro, Eriksen and Bruno, but it's not enough when the other players are not equally supportive. The team's performance is chaotic and they are having difficulty winning many games, so of course there must be an improvement in the squad or fire the coach and replace him with a Spanish coach.

Manchester united has one of the most expensive squad in the premier league. They have been spending big money on players for many years not yet nothing to show. It's possible that their scout is not working very well or something else is wrong. But it's obvious that Manchester united can't contest for the title.

[Cookdata]

Manchester United don't lack rich ownership, good management and skillful players, however this club didn't succeed from a long time. Their fans are waiting for a trophy since 2017 Europa League title under Mourinho and last EPL title in 2013 under Sir Alex Ferguson's. EFL Cup isn't that important comparing to EPL and European competitions obviously.
I think Ten Hag is a good coach but he failed so far to upgrade his team to be challenging for top clubs. He sometimes fail to collect three points from mid-table teams..
Manchester United are in the 7th position thanks to Brighton defeat but next game vs Chelsea isn't reassuring and they can drop in ranking if they lose it.

When are we going to draw the line and accept the responsibility that Erik Ten is not a good match for Manchester United. You even admitted about the club historical performances, had EPL title in 2013 and since then, nothing great has been achieve by the club, isn't that a laughable club despite all the chear up to get them at the club, but in the end nothing good to show for it, today they are doing good and the next day they play poorly like they don't have a coach.

Look at their position in the standing, about a week ago, they were about come near Tottenham and Aston Villa but Aston Villa did performed well and has even cross over Tottenham to become number 4 but guess what Manchester did, they slipped down in the table and now in the number 7th. With this, do they still stand a chance with all this painful result shit? That's still depend on what they play before the end of the year.

[Avirunes]

I also see that their performance this year is very worrying, of course if Chelsea is consistent in the match they will steal points at their opponent's base, this will again create a bad image for Manchester United. If they want to appear in other leagues next year, of course they have to maintain their current position until the end of this league, otherwise their hopes of appearing in other leagues will be dashed.

United have been performing poor lately. Not sure what is going on but they are behind by 3-4 points from getting into top 5  of table. They can still make a good finish but right now teams performance is not that good nor atmosphere around the team.

Game against Chelsea is an important one but Chelsea also have been playing great football lately. It's at Old Trafford so United have the boost but will they able to redeem it in the fixture, well let's see.

[bestcoins1]

Everton's meet Newcastle worries me. Their triumph against Nottingham was refreshing, but Newcastle seems intimidating. Newcastle has played well recently, notably against Manchester United. As an Everton fan, I'm worried. However, hope remains. Everton may draw by taking a more defensive attitude and focusing on counterattacks. We've seen the team rally in terrible times. Strategy rules now. Sean Dyche must play his cards perfectly or the Toffees may pull off another surprise.

You don't need to worry about that because this season Everton may still be able to save themselves from being relegated in the Premier League. But if we win against Newcastle, I think it will be quite difficult for Everton because Newcastle still has better abilities than Everton, so it would be very normal if Everton were unable to beat Newcastle in this week's match at home. However, if Everton is able to overcome Newcastle's strength well enough in that match, I will also praise Everton after the match is over.

Manchester City, I can't predict their performance anymore, but I know that they will win their next match.

EPL clubs are not meeting the standardized form of the fans, we understand the facts about these clubs, Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United. The performance of Manchester City is not up the expectations of the fans, though they're still trying their best to hook up the competitive standards of the English Premier League. Manchester City reclaim their spot on the EPL table but they couldn't maintain the balance of the match. Pep Guardiola have fallen from been the best coach this season to becoming a struggling coach against elite clubs.

[Roseline492]

Basically Manchester City are more likely to win the game, but you are right that they lose concentration in defense when the game is almost over. Manchester City have conceded 8 goals in 3 tough games against Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham, so it is true that Pep Guardiola must be able to overcome his defensive problems if he still wants to retain the title.

Although for me I see nothing wrong with Manchester City defense I mean they have a very strong defense line but however the only problem with there defense is that do to the kind of formation they normally use so there defenders normally advance more on the front instead of focusing on there defense but still they are still strong.

The truth is that no matter how perfect and good performance a club is losing is inevitable because in one way or another they most surely lose match so that's why in times of Manchester City I don't normally blame them if they lose matches because they are really trying by wining many of there matches and also with time they will go far.

However, if Everton is able to overcome Newcastle's strength well enough in that match, I will also praise Everton after the match is over.

Everton and Newcastle both won their last matches, but Newcastle was the better team. I don't think it's too risky to expect Newcastle to win the game against Everton, they are the favorites based on their performance. Even if Everton plays at home, then I think the morale of the players is not good after the points deduction. They are under huge pressure and I don't think they can steal any points from Newcastle.

I agree that Everton are still very likely to avoid relegation this season because they have 24 games yet to play. Everton can improve and return to their best form, but not when Everton plays Newcastle or a better team.
