Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Pulsar77]

Chelsea managed to defeat Watford by 2-1 in a tough game but their next game is even tougher than that one. Because their opponent is going to be West Ham and the game is tomorrow. As it is an away game also, Chelsea would have a really difficult time to get another win here. West Ham lost two of their seven home games this season and the opponents they lost to were Brentford and Manchester United. Maybe Chelsea are going to be the third one, who knows.    But as for my opinion, we will see both teams scoring and maybe a draw like 2-2 or 1-1.

Of course it's the same. If not then show me the differences  
Exaggeration/hyperbolization/overdoing these are simple logical techniques that help us to more clearly see some phenomenon and evaluate it.

I gave you various examples that are similar to what happened to De Gea, like

1. The last defender pulling a hamstring while trying to defend against a striker, who then scores a goal. You, as a referee, do you cancel the goal?
2. Two defenders getting "put out of actions" when they collide, get injured (not head injury) and the opponent scores a goal

The above examples are all up to the sportsmanship level of the striker, like it was in this case, or else if they go ahead and score. The goal will be counted.

If we go by the logic of immediately stopping the game every time a player or keeper for this matter rolls on the ground, then what will stop keepers from falling "unconscious" every time there is a corner kick or free kick, and the opponent is about to score a goal?

The decision of hiring Ralf Rangnick as a Manchester United manager is pretty weird.
This guy was working in Russia as a director of Lokomotiv Moscow(one of the not-so-successful Russian football clubs) and he has zero experience as a manager in the Premier League.
I guess that German football coaches are put on a pedestal in England right now,after the success of Jurgen Klopp and Thomas Tuchel in both Liverpool and Chelsea.
Probably the Man United owners have thought "This guy is a German,he would definitely be successful."  

I don't know anything about this guy until his name was mentioned as a replacement for Ole to be honest. The board knows more than us when they decided to hire him for sure so let's see what he's made up. It seems football culture and style won't be a hindrance anymore for the same reason you mentioned.

From here, Man Utd boosted up and led the team win with 3:2 Ronaldo scoring 2 goals.  

Let's not forget that ManU faced Arsenal which is a good team for sure but not from the best ones in EPL these seasons. Winning 3 - 2 vs them was good but not exciting. I consider them in a test phase under a new management and so far they succeeded the first test.

If Carrick is enough to make Manchester United's performance improve, I don't think Manchester United should sign Rangnick. What's more, Rangnick was only assigned to be interim coach until the end of the season, if to only make interim coach until the end of the season then I would prefer Carrick to stay.

I do agree with you. If the purpose is for an interim coach only, Carrick is enough to fill the position. Carrick proves to us that he can manage Manchester United players so well and he makes some improvements. It is proven by better results got by Manchester United in the last 2 matches. Unfortunately, Manchester United already made a deal with Rangnick previously. However, why did Manchester United never try to let Carrick manage Manchester United players first before looking for another coach? They must already think of this option, right?

Yes, but the choice was already made. It is not necessary to make far-reaching conclusions based on just a few matches. I'm just afraid that the same dissatisfied conversations started about Carrick as about Solskjaer, when the results deteriorated. Also, Carrick has absolutely no experience as a head coach and it is quite obvious that Manchester United does not want a repeat of the situation with Ole Gunnar, despite the fact that Solskjaer still had some experience of independent work, but not at a top club. Moreover, Rangnik will not just temporarily serve as the head coach of Manchester United, but will also remain in the structure of the club.

Yes

Carrick lacks the managerial experience and Man United take the risk and didn't gamble on him, and they don't want it to be like OGS if he keeps getting good results then fans going to demand to make it official and keep him while it looks like they are planning to bring someone else more experienced in the new season, Its not clear yet who it will be probably Pochettinho because he has ups and downs with PSG and his future not clear yet.
cant see Luis Enrique Leaving Spain before finishing World cup which gonna be held a year for now.
So we will have to wait for the future surprises to come.

West Ham - Chelsea

well this will be a difficult game if chelsea doesn't play with all the good players they have, they need score at least 2 goals and fortify themselves in defense to win this game

I bet on chelsea

Wolves - Liverpool

Liverpool is going through good times and that's why I think they can win this game.

I bet on liverpool

Watford - Manchester City

Well, I bet on City and I hope they win

I agree with your predictions for the Liverpool game against wolves, I think Liverpool is in form an wolves are not doing very well in the league right now. The game against Manchester City and Watford is going to be difficult for the citizens so I think, but they we pass through and come out with a victory  because of their experience....but I don't think Chelsea will win westham,that game will end up in draw, Westham might even win the game because they will come very prepared after dropping point midweek,they will do everything not to let spurs top them this week.and the early kick off we play is on part.

I think for choosing Liverpool is great decision how ever The Kop right now on the top performance where last week defeat Watford 1-2 although playing as away. Wolves is not the same like last three years where become destroy for bigger club but now many time loss opportunity faced with to four position team. I think you need to review by choosing Manchester City against with Watford, Claudio Ranieri always have surprise for bigger team and I think Manchester City will difficult to get three points from  Watford.

Manchester United board already made their arrangement of interim coach before Carrick could prove himself.
Carrick shouldn't bother himself because this result gotten by him in these three matches can resurrect in the future and testify positively about him. It is already in his profile.
Atleast, Manchester United play ball and had good possession as compared to their previous matches.
Carrick would have been given even if till January before engaging another coach.

I don't understand why you guys are betting so much on Watford... just because he thrashed United?
Apart from this totally non-standard result, Watford has a negative streak and is fighting to escape relegation.
Do you really believe he has more chances than City?

In a lucky shot they can even win, but I don't believe they are technically superior or even equal.

My bet is against City, no doubt about it.

West ham Vs Chelsea : 2-2
I think westham has prove this season and last that they are not a small team and can dominant the big boys, I see it as a free goal scoring match and Chelsea we find it hard to go home with the 3 point because the hammers we be very prepared.

Wolves Vs Liverpool : 1-3
Liverpool will win these game comfortably, wolves don't have that bite of previous season anymore

Manchester United Vs crystal palace 2-1
This match we be very interesting to watch because Viera palace won't come easy on United but I think United will do everything to come home with the 3 point.l love watching this Viera team play.

Tottenham Vs Norwich: 2-0
Spurs will win this game comfortably,the team has started getting use to what Conte want from them.

[waelov]

After 14 rounds of the Premier League, Wolves are ranked eighth in the general standings with 21 points, with a goal difference from United seventh, and a difference of one point from Tottenham sixth, the question here remains, do these people really deserve the position they are in?
In principle, Wolves scored so far in the league only 12 goals, which is no team in the whole tournament scored less than this other than Norwich, who is 19th in the table!
The truth is, the number of Wolfs goals unfortunately does not really indicate the offensive capabilities of the team, the fact is that Wolfs is one of the strongest offensive teams in the tournament, and the most diverse in creating opportunities, and very close to the elite teams, the wolves players, have so far created 28 opportunities to score in 14 Tour, in a number that only Liverpool, Chelsea, City and United,
In my opinion, this team and the football they offer are very underrated. The truth is, amid all the praise that is being paid to the Premier League teams, a team is very likely to take a position from the top 4 centers if it scores even half of the opportunities that are wasted,

Liverpool are beginning to show how strong they are in the EPL now,they are now playing like the previous season where they won the Champions league.They play with aggression and dominate till the game ends and score as many goals as possible.

Mohamed Salah is on fire as he gives them regular goals,scoring back to back in every game that he plays.I thinks they are begining to make me see that they might be the champions of England.

Newcastle Vs Burnley 2-1

Newcastle were very unlucky not to get the 3 point against Norwich on Monday because of that early red card.i think they can change that this weekend.
Watford Vs Manchester City 1-3
City will not go easy on them because pep knows Reneiri team are not to be taking lightly. They have enough quality to finish the job.

Everton Vs arsenal 1-2
Toffees have lost alot these past month and Rafa Benitez job is on threat but I don't think they we get the first 3 points for s while against arsenal, because the gunners are in top form and they just lose against Manchester United even if they deserve a draw in that game, so I think they will win Everton.

West Ham have been playing badly for the last 3 games and for me tonight with Chelsea it was quite difficult to win despite getting the advantage playing at home, but that is not enough in my opinion if it is against a big team in the EPL who ranks first.
I don't think that West ham will last long in the top 4 of the EPL maybe this week it will soon be shifted by points below it, Arsenal and Tottenham have started well for me the club will be tighter in the top 4 round.

West Ham - Chelsea

I bet on chelsea

I think everyone's choice must be the same and focus on the 3 big clubs that lead the standings. I even bet on him today. Even though West Ham is also no less interesting and can stay in 4th position until now. Because they are facing Chelsea, like it or not, the opportunity is for me, of course Chelsea will benefit.

West Ham will face Chelsea this week, which is the leader of the standings, the unsatisfactory result when held to a draw by Brighton Albion last week made West Ham very motivated to get three points against Chelsea, in fact the visitors achieved quite impressive results last week where Chelsea beat Watford with a score of 1-2. Currently Chelsea is only one point away from Manchester City in 2nd position, of course this match makes Chelsea have to perform optimally and can get three points.

You're right, it's clear that Chelsea should somehow score quite a bit from the game against West ham. If not, his absence as leader of the top standings could be an opportunity for City and steal that position at the end of the season. It would be very unpleasant to fight until the end of the Chelsea season by continuing in first position but at the end it was stolen by City.

chances of victory still belong to Chelsea. but actually, I believe West Ham is not without opportunities. despite poor results in the last few games. such as the draw with Brighton and the defeat to Wolves. West Ham still has the possibility of winning or drawing.
I tried to see when West Ham played Liverpool 3-2. even won 4-1 from Aston Villa.
Chelsea is still very favorites in this match. but if West Ham can compete very well prepared. I think it's not impossible that we can see West Ham's quick goal.

West ham has always surprised me this season and I feel even though in this match chelsea is the seed but it is possible that Westham will be a scourge that hinders chelsea

Wolves Vs Liverpool : 1-3
Liverpool will win these game comfortably, wolves don't have that bite of previous season anymore

Wolves were very good at the start of the season but now it seems their magic is gone as their form hasn't been good enough lately and I feel City will win by a margin of more than 2 goals

Tottenham Vs Norwich: 2-0
Spurs will win this game comfortably,the team has started getting use to what Conte want from them.

It should have been a pretty easy game as Tottenham only played the 2nd worst team in the EPL this season

✂

almost forgot Cr7 just got a brace which takes his tally to 801 goals...what a milestone!

✂
two goals by Ronaldo is well deserved irrespective of whether he scored via a penalty or not of course he could have missed it, congratulations to him for scoring his 800th goals indeed a big achievement infact he felt bad for being substituted,
✂

for this impressive record there is now a nice cartoon, which shows among other things for which clubs CR has scored all his 800 goals
