Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[BitcoinHunt3r]

Man Utd vs Everton kicks off at 8pm in the UK, live from Old Trafford. Man Utd can go level with their Manchester neighbours on points if they win. Surely Ole’s men won’t drop points to Everton.

To keep competing Man United must win today to keep their distance from Leicester and Liverpool, the competition for these three teams is so intense that a small mistake can shift their position in the top 4, meanwhile Man City is still comfortable at the top of the standings with the advantage of one more game. Man United's target today is not for the standings but to stay away from Leicester and Liverpool.

Fulham 0 - 0 West Ham

A drab draw with neither team able to get the winner in London; it was a match marred by poor refereeing and var decisions. I would never deem that encounter of soucek with mitrovic as violent conduct; it was a harsh decision and unneccesary waste of time. What do you think about Soucek red card ?

[Avirunes]

What do you think about Soucek red card ?

I seriously don't know what to say. It was a really bad decision from Mike Dean. That wasn't intentional at all from Soucek but if you saw Mike Dean stats you will notice that he also was officiating match between Southampton and Manchester United and he gave red to Jan Bednarek which was overturned by the FA however. (!)

I think Soucek one will also be overturned but still it proves Mike Dean is making bad decisions.

(!) Also on a side note- there was controversy with Jan Bednarek's red card and David Luiz red card appeal. Bednarek's red card was overturned but David Luiz wasn't even though David Luiz didn't involved much of contact.

Liverpool's defense is very weak now. Their game strategy should change. They will not be able to draw the match against Manchester unless they change their strategy. Because Manchester is a stable team. Both their forwards and defense are stable enough. If Liverpool's defenders make a mistake against them, the result will not be happy for them.

I doubt that a team that played about the same strategy (with some changes here and there but tiny) for the past 3.5 years or so would be capable of changing right away in a single day. They loaned Ozan Kabak to have a better standing on the defenders, not like he would be anywhere near Virgil but at least it is better to have Ozan at the defense and Fabinho back on defensive midfield position he is more familiar with.

I guess this is going to have them a great help. If it works, and I mean really works, they do not really need to change their strategy, there is absolutely no need for that, because at that point their strategy will be back on track to be good again as long as they know what they can make it work. However if this doesn't really become a good addition (which will take more than few games to understand) they will be in big trouble for sure.

I think it is very bad that the English league cannot caution their referees; VAR insisted it wasn't a red card but Mike dean has refused VAR for 2 consective matches now; does this mean the English VAR is powerless ?Will the EPL overturn soucek red? This are issues on my mind.

Manchester are 1 nil up against everton thanks to a beautiful Rashford cross and Cavani header; will they hang on to their win and go level with Manchester United; we have 45 minutes to 53 minutes to find out

Update: Manchester United are 2 gooals up at half time; goals from Bruno Fernades and Cavani

[DIA7]

Half time for United and Everton with host 2 nill advantage and a very beauty of a goal from Bruno Fernandez.
He is an intelligent player by nature, the way he raises his head twice before sending the ball indicates that talent that you rarely find a player possesses, especially as it is an additional factor for the success of a player in a sensitive position like the middle. Portugal happy you a lot and United are happier, Bruno!

[roosbit]

Watching this Manchester United team play some good football against Everton makes me wonder how they got beat playing at old trafford by one of the teams with the poorest defense...I suppose Fernandes is the difference

He was on the field on the game against Sheffield. You know that shit happens most of the times when there are heavy favourites vs underdog team so yeah its kinda normal . Liverpool lose to Burnley and United lose to Sheffield, these kind of unexpected results makes Premier League as one of the best league

2-2 at 52nd minutes

Bruno is a good player but to be honest nothing really exceptional about him. He has that high motivation to win which is why he always gives his best performances on the field. Have you seen the clip of him arguing with Maguire because he thinks that Maguire wasnt giving his best as the captain ? The clip really shows how bad he wants to win and he was giving his best for every match unlike some players

And see how things change in a few minutes. Riding on an Everton bet so of course I'm happy with the way the game's going now. 2 shots on target after the restart and 2 goals.

OF course, United could still probably score another and win it after all but point being, this season has been anything but consistent for any team.

And Fernandes has made a difference -- just still think he is slightly overrated. Cavani's really transformed the way you get goals though. Fewer penalties;)

Bruno Fernandes is really a special player for Manchester Utd. When he plays, Manchester Utd are stronger on attacking and scoring goals. I checked his statistics so far and saw that he has played in 32 games (excluding the game is going on right now) so far and he scored 17 goals and made 12 assists. These are really very impressive statistics I think. By the way, the Manchester Utd-Everton match is very enjoyful now. Everton managed to bring the score to 2-2 in 3 minutes. But Manchester Utd have got ahead again with the goal McTominay scored and it is 3-2 now. I hope Manchester Utd win this.

It was a disappointing tie at Old trafford; they were only seconds away from 3 points before Tuanzebe made an unnecessary tackle and draw a foul; i think this is the consequences of bad substitution; maybe Matic should have come on to shore up the midfield battles; Another needless points lost; and another Poor performance from the backline and De Gea

Manchester United remain second

Bruno has played a vital role in Man Utd recent run of form. I think he started impressing right from his first Man Utd game and has kept that form till date. Aside from the fact that Bruno is good at scoring penalties, his style of play and contribution to his team is commendable and a joy to watch. I've watched a couple of Man Utd matches this this season which he has featured including PL, UCL and other other cup fixtures. Bruno is kinda player you always need in your team. Works tirelessly and always gets ball forward to the attackers.

Crazy game tonight Everton stubbornly snatched a tie with United, who was better in everything except in his defense and goalkeeper .
Fatal mistakes returned Everton despite the control, confidence and goals of Manchester in the first half .
Cavani and Bruno are the two key words in all the beauty of United and Calvert Lewin returned to be one Who are the Premier League scorers again .
 If City wins tomorrow, who will compete for the title ?

[coinlocket$]

It astonishing how the Premier League is looking right now.

After the fail start of the season with, if I remember correctly, the 10th position after 5-6 turns, now we have a situation where City is leading over the second with +2 points over the second with 2 fewer games and the potential to go +8 over Manchester United who thrown points Today too.

I still want Leicester as the winner but It will be hard with this pace.

Everton scoring 3 goals is something rare to see these months and seeing it happening vs ManU is weird. 3-3 was unexpected by everyone here I suppose.
For tomorrow, if City will win, which I suppose to happen, then they will be running quite far from everyone else.
West Ham disappointed me the most, I expected them to win and take the 4th place, but 1-1 vs Drawham...for real
There is also, Southampton, this team is quite dysfunctional and dropped a lot.. In the last 10 games they had 3 draw + 1 win only!
Overall today games results were shit, we will see how things will be tomorrow

Another Arsenal loss; another evidence that Arteta is not the man for the job and the squad is not good enough; Arsenal was never in contention for the top 4 places lol; they are a midtable team. Arsenal could go as low as 13th on the log after this game week if results are positive for Southampton, Crystal Palace or Leeds united. A deserved win for Aston Villa who still has game in hand

It amazed me how you guys sometimes blame the coach for the team loss while he can only do what he can from his end while the players are to lift up to expectation on the pitch of play, though Arsenal lost back to back was a surprise but things got scatter sometimes for a better solution to come. But it sad that Mathew Ryan's debut started with a loss.
In the meantime, Southampton also lost today's game, lets wait and see what will happen to Crystal Palace and Leeds united.

In general, there is an old football truth that is very applicable in this case, this old truth says that the players are always to blame for the victory of the football team, and the coach is always to blame for the defeat I have great respect and sympathy for Arteta and wish him every success in overcoming the current problems, but in the case when it is necessary to make difficult decisions by the team management, it is usually always easier to change the head coach of the team than to change the team composition.

Bruno has big importance for Manchester United and Solskajer seldomly let Bruno on the bench if he is not injured or suspended. Solskajer relies on and drains out too much energy from Bruno Fernades. The player is tired and he need some breaks to come back with his best.

The late goal to help Everton equalized put Manchester United in worse position for the title hunting though the season so far is better than what we thought Manchester United can have. Another season with 2nd position after the last one with Mourinho and the stability for the coach position, it can help they will be really able to fight for title in next seasons.

After the fail start of the season with, if I remember correctly, the 10th position after 5-6 turns, now we have a situation where City is leading over the second with +2 points over the second with 2 fewer games and the potential to go +8 over Manchester United who thrown points Today too.

It is a dramatic match with a late equalizer. Without the lost 2 points, Manchester United already fell behind Manchester City. This draw only makes it worse a little.

I still want Leicester as the winner but It will be hard with this pace.

Almost impossible. Manchester City slowly to climb and dominate the Premier League with their win streak. It is hard for all clubs and not only for Leicester City to beat Man City.

[ShowOff]

Again, Arsenal had to lose 10 times in the Premier League. So far it has been a very bad season for them and their current lose outnumbered Brighton and Hove Albion. I didn't think Arsenal were that bad this season before and it would have been even worse if they couldn't motivate their players for the rest of the season.

So far Arsenal have only been able to win 9 matches, 4 draws and 10 lose which put them in 10th place in the standing and may be down again if Leeds United, Southampton and Crystal Palace are able to win their next match. What happened to Arsenal, they were really very unconvincing this season ?

Manchester United have had a dip in their last few games which has made Manchester City even more convincing at the top. Manchester United have only been able to win 2 games, 2 draws and 1 defeat in the last 5 games and have played 23 games so far. Manchester City will further away from the pursuit of Manchester United, Liverpool and Leicester if they are able to win in the next 2 matches. But a difficult match awaits City who will play Liverpool. Winning over Liverpool will make the opportunity to become champions even closer.

I can't still understand how Arteta is yet to be sacked as manager of Arsenal, he has done so poorly this season and a change is definitely needed, Frank Lampard wasn't doing too bad, before Chelsea sacked him, I can draw the conclusion that Arteta is really lucky, and I think it's cause he's a club legend and Arsenals club policy on firing managers is pretty lenient, unlike that of Chelsea.

Manchester United have had a dip in their last few games which has made Manchester City even more convincing at the top.

This is true. If City can go on to win their match against Liverpool today, I think they'll have one hand on the title already, other teams around City at the top have seen better days compared to their current form, and City is running away with the title slowly.
