Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Furious 7]

I have placed a bet there but it looks like it will lose because Southampton are playing with 10 players now I can't imagine how they would withstand the attacks from Vardy 
The draw at half-time was impressive and it would be super impressive if it was a draw to the end, although I'm not sure.

With 10 players in the opening minutes for Southampton it will be very difficult to win unless they hold on to the end of the battle, but if Leicester can't win then that opportunity is not taken so it will be more interesting to see in half two how Leicester will score.

I'm not sure you will win the bet with Southampton but hopefully, you will still be lucky by expecting a draw at the end.

^^ I think red card was bit harsh for Southampton. Vestergaard did a mistake and while trying to win it he made contact with the ball first and didn't had any intent to foul. I think it will be overturned later on but still it's harsh with them playing with 10 men out there today.

At the moment they are holding Leicester somehow but there is still 45 minutes to play and that's a difficult task.

Leicester will win most likely imo. Southampton is trying to reach the safe zone but I doubt they can do something tonight. Leicester needs more those 3 points to grant the CL spot, although they are almost safe.

Agree, Southampton has lost their form as the league progressed and Leicester is looking dangerous and gunning to secure that CL spot. Should be an easy victory for the foxes but we all saw how Barca fared last night Nothing is sure in football.

Your last sentence tells everything
I didn't wait to see Leicester losing tonight, yeah I insist on losing 1-1 since they were playing vs 10 players almost the whole game...
3 of the remaining 4 games of Leicester are quite hard, ManU + Chelsea +/- Spurs, even Newcastle matches can be sometimes unpredictable!
Chelsea games are quite hard too while West Ham ones aren't.
Dunno but I have the feeling that WHU will take a CL spot from Chelsea or Leicester (less likely)

It wasnt harsh at all. Deserved! Red card last player plus stepped on him real hard. But southamptons defence was really good today
They even scored 1 goal they can be happy

The red card was harsh and i believe that it will reversed and rescinded in the panel. But it was a deserved draw for Southampton who go 10 points above the relegation zone with 5 games to play in the premier league. Leicester meanwhile failed to reduce the point to 2nd placed Manchester United and go 5 points ahead of 4th place Chelsea.

It was a penalty and without that penalty they would lose again today. Southampton went from good on the early of this season to an awful team that keeps struggling in most of the match. Its kinda like they are playing just to avoid those bottom 3 relegation zone, I was kinda hoping that they would get to atleast top 7 this season

Leicester meanwhile failed to reduce the point to 2nd placed Manchester United and go 5 points ahead of 4th place Chelsea.

Meh, Manchester United is going to get the 2nd position this season. Leicester will stick with 3rd and its either Chelsea / West Ham on 4rd. The decider match would be the next one, If Manchester United win against Liverpool then we are going to secure the 2nd spot for sure

They had an amazing start to the season i cant remember but i think they were first at one time. But yeah they scored from a clear penalty they earned it with how they defended. They wont be relegated o most sure fulham is out

Brighton - Leeds:  sorry but what are these odds?



Leeds are unbeaten in the last 6 games, 4 of those games were vs. City, Chelsea, Liverpool and Man Utd. On the other hand, Brighton lost to a relegated team like Sheffield last weekend, plus they stilll haven't won a game since march...so yeah, Brighton are the main favs in the books....why? Leeds double chance at 1.7, asian handicap -0 at 2.57...am i missing smth or what??

[cryptofrka]

Leicester is really throwing points away lately. With 4 games remaining they still have to play Chelsea, United and Tottenham and have really put their CL position into doubt again.

Liverpool and West Ham are still far away but Leicester lost CL position last season in the last game when it also seemed impossible 5 games earlier. Their only luck is that Liverpool is worse than them and they are about to play United.

It was an unexpected result for me too. Vestergaard was shown a red card very early and I started thinking that Leicester would win it even easier then. But that was not the case. Southampton still managed to get ahead 1-0 in the second half. Leicester weren't late to answer. But they couldn't make a comeback unfortunately.

The whole plan was changed after the red card. It was to defend right till the end and get a point out of it at best. The penalty gave Southampton a good advantage over Leicester but Leicester somehow got an equaliser. Still I think it was a great piece of tactical awareness and the team initiated quite well also.

No tight matches today but I am expecting lot of changes in sides playing in CL's so could be a bit of surprise in those matches.

I have the same feeling. Dunno if you saw Barcelona and Granada odds in La Liga this Thursday. Granada was @18 before 2 days of the game and @16 before 1 day. I was perplexed, I mean this team is quite good one, why the odds let you feel that they will lose badly and for sure? At the end, Granada won with 2 goals to 1. Dunno if this will happen again in EPL today but I am backing Leeds to win or at least to get a draw.

Leeds odds may drop further before the start of the game, I think Leeds are playing better than Brighton but Brighton has found a way to deliver in big matches and let down in matches you would expert they win,
I think Leeds with that odds may be a bonus or may be an enticing plan to get stakers going for Leeds in this match, Odds don't play the game, I predict a draw in between.

I'm also surprised to see these odds. Leeds still have a chance for the 7th position in the table. And they have a much better form than Brighton. But it might be due to their previous game which Brighton won 1-0 away.

That's a bit shocking. I was thinking bit of even odds actually. Both are playing nice football but like you said Leeds will be having good confidence after facing some good teams back to back. They are very good on attacks but are equally bad in defence as well so not entirely would favour Leeds win here as well.

Brighton are also not bad with Welbeck, Maupay, and all. They could surprise Leeds also.

I understand the predictions based on h2h are not accurate, but I look at h2h in their last 7 meetings, leeds have never been able to win against Brighton when they away, on the contrary, Brighton is able to beat Leeds when they away, this could be the reason for bookie favoring Brighton to win.

51 minutes C. Palace vs Man City is still goalless.

I would not rush to judge who will take 4th place ... although United will definitely be in second given that they have not too tough opponents at the end of the season. The same is the case with the last games of Liverpool, as West Bromovich, Crystal, Burnley, Southamton are not too dangerous opponents for him.

It is unlikely that Chelsea and West Hem will win all the last matches, as they will face Manchester, Everton, Arsenal, and Leicester (not to mention the fact that the upcoming Champions League games will take a lot of energy). So, good luck to Liverpool ...

Crystal Palace 0 - 2 Manchester City A good away win for city who now has 5 fingers on the 2021 premier league trophy. Goals from Aguero and Ferran Toress were enough to give city a well deserved win after a boring first 60 minutes; they now move 13 points ahead of second placed Manchester United.

[tokeweed]

^  Aguero still has it.  I wish Pep would let him play in the more important matches for the club even if it’s just as a sub.  But a super sub.    It’s always good to have a player of his calibre in Pep’s back pocket just in case the team needs to get out of a rut.  Kinda like how Drogba was in his last couple of years with Chelsea.

The odds payout for Chelsea to win the match in full time against Fulham is @1.50, the odds payout does look attractive but I think the rate does look kind of suspicious as Chelsea will be playing this match at their home stadium. Fulham have produced a lot of surprising result this season when they play against favorite teams, and I guess Fulham might be able to force a draw against Chelsea today.
