Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[jaberwock]

with Leeds keeping a low line; there was nobody to make such run and creates the space. Nobody marshals the back line excellent in the epl like Ndidi does; and this is what forced Leicester city to switch to a back 5 and they still struggled. A good win for Leeds who outwitted Leicester by exploiting the obvious holes in the midfield.

Honestly if someone told me that Leeds was a championship team just last year, and failed to go up for 16-17 years before that, I wouldn't have believed by just watching the games this year. Bielsa is really a magician when it comes to strategy and tactics, dude knows exactly what he needs to do and he doesn't have really that well "tactic scheme" like all other coaches have, mourinho has his defense, pep has his tiki taka and many other coaches have their styles and sure bielsa has that famous attacking style as well but mainly he changes the team according to whatever opponent they have, Leicester is a marvelous team and Leeds just humiliated them, all thanks to Bielsa knowing what they would be going against and preparing the team accordingly. He is really a magician and I really think that there is no coach that is better and getting ready part of football.

While Chelsea won their game statistics show that Burnley couldn't even shot more than once. I didn't watch the game but is it true?
I saw Azpilicueta's goal, that was a classy finish. Marcos Alonso's goal was even better. Chelsea finally got the first win with Tuchel, many more to come I believe.

Chelsea were so dominant,  they really enjoyed possession ball, Burnley seemed to be locked up in a cage. No wonder if Chelsea win, Tuchel will make a double role for Azpilicueta. He has to defend with defenders and also help attack, that goes well. I also saw some of the players who accompanied their debut against Wolves were not starters. Iit shows that he will not rely on some of the same players for other matches. Another that, there will  be still a lot of match for Tuchel, I hope he will bring Chelsea as a strong club in the competition for the EPL championship, so the winner EPL is more difficult to predict.

It's a great way to ruin my parlay, thanks Tottenham. I'm sure Stake owners love you now.
Brighton & Hove Albion also missed second goal chances but I can't blame them, they did their job by scoring a goal. Meanwhile Tottenham failed to score first time since 20 December. They deserved this loss.

[Lordhermes]

Their next game will be against Spurs, I guess we will discover if the new manager - Tuchel - can fix this team or fails.

This clash will be a though one as Tottenham had lost two matches on a consecutive rows against Liverpool and Brighton dropping down point which led them 6th position with 33 points, I think José Mourinho will take back his winning cycle starting with Chelsea, though may not be easy for The Lilywhites to outsmart three points from Chelsea.

The Premier League is becoming more competitive day by day. Manchester City, Manchester United, Liverpool, and Leicester all the teams are playing just great.

I will be expecting Liverpool clashing with Manchester city in their next match, Liverpool side will do more greater than Manchester city as they team is getting stagnant and weaker in their style of play these few weeks.

[Expecto]

Tottenham looks very bad until now, hope they can score or at least concede a goal because I have a bet for over 1.5 goals.
Bale out and Moura in now, without Kane they couldn't do much. Son is ineffective alone. I still have my hopes for another goal.

Tottenham played such a terrible game in the first half. Brighton got 10 shots and scored one. We saw a very different second half but none of the teams managed to score one more goal. The absence of Kane affected the team deeply. By the way, I feel sorry for your bet which was lost.

West ham 1 - 3 Liverpool

it was a game where Salah managed to score 2 goals and liverpool won with a greater number of ball possession. with this victory liverpool will have 40 points and in the next game they will play against brighton and then turn into the big game: liverpool vs city, it will be a very important game and liverpool is in good shape in the last 2 games

brighton 1 - 0 tottenham

This is commonly called a ''classic moment '' when Brighton is in the relegation zone then don't be surprised when the surprises come  
I'm not sure the cause of this defeat was because Kane didn't play there are Son and Bale no one doubted the abilities of these two players, sometimes what we see we cannot say

Although Liverpool started this season badly, they are slowly showing a consistent game. And Liverpool against West Ham really deserves to win
in my opinion, because as you said Liverpool did dominate the match by winning the ball possession. Salah also played well when he was used as
central forward, maybe in the next match he could try again by placing Salah as central forward. With Liverpool's victory getting closer to 
the difference in points with Manchester City and Manchester United. I agree the key is in the Liverpool vs Manchester City match, if they succeed
in defeating Manchester City, it will make the morale of Liverpool players increase and make Liverpool's game more consistent.

For Tottenham I'm not surprised his performance has decreased, although at the start of the season he played very well. Tottenham's mistake was
in the strategy used by Mourinho that was too defensive. Not suitable for Tottenham who have players with attacking characters, so sometimes
Tottenham always have a hard time against a weak team like Brighton. Especially with the injury to Harry Kane, who is a key Tottenham player,
making the front lines only depend on Son Heung-Min. In the next match Tottenham have to face Chelsea who already has Tuchel as the new coach,
I'm sure Tottenham will lose to Chelsea if they only rely on Mourinho's defensive strategy. To be honest, I was more entertained watching
Tottenham when coached by Pochettino.

tottenham has excellent players, i don't understand why they have bad results

Tottenham hotspur has excellent players ofcourse; but they have terrible tactics; it has been stated time and time again that champions don't play negative football. Mourinho wants to win by fielding 7 players behind the ball; and for over 2 months now; it has failed. Brighton were deserved winnners; and should have won with over 5 goals, excellent defending by Aiderwielrd and saves by Lloris kept tottenham in the game. And for a second time in few days, Tottenham grant first league 2021 win to liverpool and 1st home with to Brighton.

Up next is chelsea; do you see Mourinho getting a sack ?

In fact, just at the head of Chelsea, Mourinho did everything well and turned out, so we'll see how Mourinho will play with his former team that is not indifferent to him By the way, what is interesting is that Mourinho is losing to Brighton for the third time on the road and Jose has lost three away games in a row to one opponent for the first time in his coaching career. In my humble opinion, Jose instilled attacking football in his teams last time in the case of Porto, then in the rest of Mourinho's teams there was already a much more pragmatic defensive football.

You did not say it when Tottenham destroyed Manchester United in early of this season, didn't you?

Don't blame on tactics and remember Mourinho with his management help Harry Kane and Son Heung Min stepped up to their higher level of their career, technically. They contributed more to the whole team, score more goals, assist more. You can see how Harry Kane evolved his style a lot together with Mourinho.

Mourinho wants to win by fielding 7 players behind the ball; and for over 2 months now; it has failed.

Tottenham got troubles in last matches, and Mourinho admitted it too but I do not see their tactic is boring.

Up next is chelsea; do you see Mourinho getting a sack ?

No, I don't see any sack, now and in the future. Mourinho need this season to build up a stronger team and the next season will be the trophy-fighting season for Spurs and Mourinho.

[Yogee]

Back to back wins in matchday 20 and 21 couldn't have played out any better for Liverpool. Points dropped by Everton, Man United, Leicester, and Tottenham allowed them to catch up to the two Manchester teams. I'm not saying Man City will let them but their title chance was boosted.

Back to back losses or even three wouldn't get Mourinho sacked. Maybe five straight embarrassing L hehe.

Its too early to call for the sack of mourinho, Liverpool too just came out from their own bad and lacklustre performances while Kloop was still in charge and retained, Arsenal too had their own share of inconsistency and bad results Arteta was is still in charge, although Chelsea had shown the way out for Lampard, I still believed that he needs more time to get the much needed results, even Steve Bruce of Newcastle is still in charge despite some poor runs in the league lately.

[onecall123]

Chelsea register their first success under their new manager Thomas Tuche, so impressive win against Burney. Overall I'm happy with the team performance, there so much improvement so now everyone could see the fact of having great coach. Let's bring the winning spirit onward.

[SFR10]

Up next is chelsea; do you see Mourinho getting a sack ?

Even if they lose against their rival, I doubt they'll sack him at this point ^{[maybe at the end of the season if they'd end up outside of the UEL spots]}.
^{- Most club owners aren't as impatient as Abramovich.}
For tomorrow's games, I expect nothing but wins for both Arsenal and Man U ^{[both of their opponents are in bad forms at the moment]}.

[swogerino]

Yesterday Leicester and Tottenham were big upsets I think as they were playing against weaker opponents and both lost their games with Tottenham being the bigger upset.It was a great night for Liverpool as they showed great football and I hope they continue like this.

[Juggy777]

I will be expecting Liverpool clashing with Manchester city in their next match, Liverpool side will do more greater than Manchester city as they team is getting stagnant and weaker in their style of play these few weeks.

I don't think Liverpool will be able to win against Manchester City right now. Manchester City started the season in a very bad way. But now they are at the top of the points table. Manchester City players are mentally cheerful. And they are mentally ready to beat any strong team.

@Xavofat I’ll agree with your opinion because Manchester City are suddenly the team to beat, and I don’t think that Liverpool can beat Manchester City now, but then again nothing is guaranteed in football so let’s hope that their fixture will be an entertaining one. Also what about Chelsea can they suddenly make a comeback for the title under Tuchel leadership or it’s too late for them?.

We were finally good in attack again. Slow in the 1st half, but as soon as we scored and West Ham had to get out of their double block we were able to show signs of football that got us the title last season.

If you did not see it already, check the 2nd Salah goal yesterday. His 1st goal is great as well but the 2nd is pure counterattacking masterclass.

[leea-1334]

No words for yesterday's loss. Giving Brighton their first home win ever, and remember we actually still have Gareth BaleI know Kane is always injured every season so we have to deal with his loss as usual, and he needs some rest anyway,,, but as soon as we lose one of the Son/Kane pair this is what happens to us. Getting so tired.

Indeed I doubt he will get sacked before the very end of the season or maybe in case of 5-7 successive defeats+draw.
For Arsenal, they showed nice performance lately but I always don't trust them that much, just like Spurs. I am expecting a fight in the Wolves land and a draw.
