Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Furious 7]

After losing 3-2 to RB Leipzig and not qualifying for the UCL knockout phase, this weekend Manchester United will take on Man City in the EPL. A tough challenge for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, if  lose it could be that the hashtags Ole out will increase and Ole must be Out. The history of their last match, MU won 2-0. But I'm not sure about the state of the MU players for tomorrow.

4 consecutive wins in the EPL for Man United I think it's been a tough week for the two Manchester who will face this week although Gunnar Solskjaer will be full of pressure if he loses maybe he will be sacked soon if it loses.
But I think the victory in the EPL is good enough for MU, but I don't know if losing will bring disaster to him.
This is playing at MU's house so there is still a chance to win even though this is not sure because Mancity is also better.

^  So you guys know better than the manager?  Is that it?  You expect Ozil to play then everything will magically turn fine and dandy at North London?

Personally I don't think that they will start winning all their games magically after Ozil get in the boat but certainly they will play better than this in EPL. Actually in some teams I believe that the coach is not doing enough to stimulate the players.

Arteta was with this same team last year finishing 10th position bought some good first-team players he requested during the transfer window and was on top of the league earlier this season winning Liverpool and Manchester United and suddenly all the players are fatigued and are performing poorly the question is;

Is Arteta Motivating this players at all? ?

He lack a creative midfielder so why was Ozil ommited ?

Its not 10th finish first, it is 8th finish. Secondly, part of it has to do with bad managing in starting by Unai Emery. I still recall how bad we were and fans were very upset with Emery. Arsenal under Arteta however somehow at least were displaying better.

Regarding Ozil, I would say it hurts to see such a creative midfielder go but Arteta also has a point since he has to role as manager to play. He is there for a reason and he knows who is displaying better. There are lot of players in midfield and Arteta had made it clear that he has to select the best and Ozil was not- as simple as that. Now, people are questioning such decision since they know what kind of player Ozil is based on past performances but maybe now he is not performing well enough before manager eyes.

[...]

I think management is gonna continue with Arteta for now. Arsenal under Arteta won FA Cup last season (that got us place in Europa) and Community Shield which we wouldn't have any high hopes for if we would have continued under Emery. It was a good journey and those moments have gained the trust of fans and board. With Arsenal performing unbeaten in group stage of Europa currently it makes it more unlikely that they would sack Arteta anytime soon.

A tough challenge for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, if  lose it could be that the hashtags Ole out will increase and Ole must be Out. The history of their last match, MU won 2-0. But I'm not sure about the state of the MU players for tomorrow.

Still not hashtag Ole out After losing 3-2 to RB Leipzig and not qualifying for the UCL knockout phase usually Manchester United fans will make hashtag because this champion league season become the first for Manchester United can't going on to knock out phase, but still safety for Ole although give bad thing for Manchester United in champion league. Waiting if Manchester United loss from City in this week will get hashtag Ole out again and have candidate Gerrard success with Glasgow Rangers and have big chance to be Manchester United coach, very sad for Manchester United after few year not participated on champion league and this season have fall on phase group.

Personally I don't think that they will start winning all their games magically after Ozil get in the boat but certainly they will play better than this in EPL. Actually in some teams I believe that the coach is not doing enough to stimulate the players.

Imo, it's the duty of the player to work hard and give the manager a reason to play him, I'm sure if Mesut Ozil was playing and Arsenal are having this bad run, fans will still find some other excuse to make and criticize the manager, Arsenal are in a bad run and Ozil is not going to change anything even if he gets on the pitch, the last games I watched Ozil play in an Arsenal jersey, I must say he wasn't impressive and if the manager decides to drop him, it's cause he doesn't think he has anything more to offer the team, the coach wouldn't stupidly bench a player that would change his teams fortune.

4 consecutive wins in the EPL for Man United I think it's been a tough week for the two Manchester who will face this week although Gunnar Solskjaer will be full of pressure if he loses maybe he will be sacked soon if it loses.

For sure there'll be a lot of pressure on OGS If he loses to pep tomorrow, but I don't think he'll be sacked by the United board if he loses this game, I believe United will give him the chance to finish this season before assessing the teams performances, plus trophies, before taking a decision, many times changing a manager mid-season doesn't change anything, though it gives the new gaffer the chance to get to know his players before the start of the other season.

4 games for tomorrow

here is the head to heads  and TV channels for you all. GL

[Oshosondy]

How about today's game, what do you people think about Leeds United vs West Ham United, the game seem not predictable but as we know West Ham can surprise people at times but Leeds is at home. Only what I am think about this game is for both team to score and having over 1.5 goals. But to win, I do not know the club that will win than to score.

Only what I am think about this game is for both team to score and having over 1.5 goals. But to win, I do not know the club that will win than to score.

It's hard to tell who will win but the bookies are favoring Leeds. I am too is leaning towards Leeds to win but I do not think this will be an easy one. The winning margin will be very close maybe not even more than one goal.

By the way, last time when Leeds faced West Ham was back in 2012. A lot of things has changed since then. West Ham will miss Antonio.

[Globb0]

My mind hasn't gone off Leeds for this one.

Its just my feeling but I am backing them.

Tomorrow Ill probably back Wolves too!

[boltz]

Even if Leeds is playing well in this season , they just can't manage to take those wins when they're playing much much better. Tonight was not the case tho as West Ham is really a solid team this year with real chances for top 5 but I guess it all depends if they can keep up this pace for the 2nd half of the season.

Not gonna lie but West Ham is pretty good but not good enough to make it to the top 5. We have Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham that probably will book their permanent spot in the top 4 throughout the season but there are still Manchester United, Manchester City, Leicester and Southampton ( which is also pretty good this season ) trailling from behind and trying to fill all those top position

Some people might thought that this is the end for Leeds but I still see the potential for them to get on the top spot.

[DIA7]

It will be an interesting game tomorrow As it's a Manchester Derby
The visitors(city) haven’t played well in derbies and United might take advantage of that also the hosts are under a lot of pressure after their disappointment in Championsleague and when Ole teams comes under pressure most of the time they perform well so they will be highly motivated to pick up some points from it.
My betting tip for this match is Both teams will ge scoring.

I think most teams already figured Leeds out already, Leeds aren't the conservative type of team, and in the PL you'll definitely need to be conservative to strive. It'll be miracle if Leeds are in the top 10 come the end of the season, imho.

My betting tip for this match is Both teams will ge scoring.

Both teams to score is always the trap of football betting...when you see the prematch statistics btts is always a good bet in such matches but in many cases the btts not happen (the last 2 head 2 head matches are the best example)
You must also not forget that the city didnt take any goal for the last  5 matches

I couldn't agree more. Both teams to score bet might look good but you will be disappointed when a team score 3-4 goals and other one couldn't score any. If teams are balanced and have high score average I prefer to take risk and put over 2.5 goals bet to my slip.

For Manchester derby, yes both teams have potential to score but will they do? 2 of their last 5 matches against each other we didn't see both teams to score.
Manchester City also have a good clean sheet run. I think this bet would be too risky.

AFAIK there is some tensions between Ozil and the manager. Ozil didn't play at least a game in the previous season due to China pressure. I will give you another example, Conte and Eriksen, the poor guy was playing few minutes at the end of the game because of the tensions between both although he is a good player. A third example is Zidane and Bale. Another one is Suarez and koeman...
Sometimes, what is beneficial for the team is no more important than the personal opinion of the manager about a bunch of players.

So yesterday, West Ham wrapped things up against Leeds utd and claimed all 3 points. Leeds took an early lead through a penalty but lost it quickly. I don't know why Leeds were the bookies favorite to win the game yesterday but West Ham is a more better team in terms of squad quality and depth.  Leeds currently has 14 points from 12 games which is very disappointing considering the way most people spoke very highly of them abd how they will do well this season. At least it's not clear that EPL isn't your regular kinda league so you have to do more than just do your best.  It's funny to think that all 3 teams that made it from the championship to PL are close to the bottom of the table. With performances like this, Leeds might be back to championship in 2021/2022 campaign.

For today's fixtures, here's my predictions:

Wolves vs Aston Villa - I'm tipping Wolves to win this one. They lost heavily to Liverpool last week.

Manchester Derby - Manchester united win since they're playing at old Trafford.

Everton vs Chelsea - Chelsea would win because they're in top form right now.

[Yogee]

...Manchester Derby - Manchester united win since they're playing at old Trafford.

Old Trafford isn't as feared as before. Man City couldn't care less if they are playing on other stadium.

Let's talk about injuries,
- Man City doesn't seem to have injured key players so that's a good sign.
- Man United will miss Phil Jones while Cavani is still unsure to play. Martial is likely to play.

This is Man City's game to lose.

Gabriel Jesus will be a mainstay of Manchester city While Martial is predicted to be unable to play so I think it's still worth it
The only advantage for Manchester United is playing at home City must be aware of this if they don't want to lose like when Tottenham beat them 3-0

[BIT-BENDER]

If manchester untied come out of this game to rival manchester untied for ball possession, Number of attack, then then might just lose to manchester city, but if they do what mourinho does to more attacking team, let them keep ball possession, number of attack, and they keep a pass-ball proof defense, then hit on a counter then manchester untied can win there nearest premier league rival, but this is not going to happen, Ole's tactics will not overcome pep, I predict a win for manchester city.
