Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

Take it easy, Liverpool will catch up with City soon.  However they have done well to be in the top 3 position.  The difference in points with City is also still possible to beat.  Although it won't be easy either.  This pause gives time to change the direction of the game's strategy in order to become a winner.

I wonder what led you to this idea? And how can this happen soon if there are 8 points between City and Liverpool? City must lose 3 matches in a row, do you believe in this scenario?

Today a rather interesting FA Cup match between Manchester United and Aston Villa will take place. Manchester's chances of winning are high - 1.72, but everyone has already seen that this team cannot be trusted. The nuance is that in the next round these teams will meet again inside the championship, but in that match Manchester United will have to play away.

Liverpool isn't Barcelona to be afraid of seeing it losing vs unknown team
They copied City's result and won 4-1. West Ham and Spurs won too. It is now the turn of Arsenal in 1 hour to qualify and tomorrow for ManU. I am a bit afraid of seeing Villa kicking ManU out of the competition.

It's possible that it could happen, but it's difficult. If I'm not mistaken, the Man United vs Aston Villa game has a history that wasn't good enough for Villa. In twelve games Man United was dominant with 10 wins. But the last time Man United didn't look good, there was a lot of negative news in the dressing room. It looks like Rangnick can't be the solution to Man United's current problem. The Man United game has no determination. Of course, the favorable factor is that Man United will play at Old Trafod. Villa and Man United they both got defeat in the last game.

I try to stay optimistic, but you can't expect Manchester City to go down while Liverpool themselves go down. I hope the break doesn't affect the team's performance too much but Liverpool really have to do their best to try to win. This is the most likely way to compete with Manchester City. I hope Manchester City don't do too well against Chelsea this weekend, this will give Liverpool a chance to continue to approach them.

Really? With what Liverpool are showing? With effects from Africa Cup? They are losing Salah, Mane, etc. for this tournament and will they return with good fitness, without injury or not is unknow. Even with them, Liverpool already had worse performance than Manchester City.

Things are like when Manchester City play well, other clubs in title race play well too but when Manchester City have buggy performance, opponents have worse results. In a long competition, Manchester City have been able to collect more points than others. We can see that in early months of this season, they had less points and less impressive performance than Chelsea or Liverpool. But now they are moving too fast and have big point difference against The Blues and The Kop.

Don't waste your time expecting Manchester City to play badly vs Chelsea. Although it's possible but I think it's something we never thought about because Manchester City have done really well so far.

You can see how they managed to dominate the Premier League since Pep came as coach, their success will be history in the future after Pep left this team. Liverpool are good with Klopp, Chelsea are also good with Tuchel but these two teams haven't really been good contenders with Manchester City this season. As a fan, I'm 100% for Manchester City to win even though it won't be easy.

Though Chelsa is on 2nd place, Man City is too far and better than Chelsa in terms of their performance and points. But besides who wins the upcoming match, it will be eagerly seen by all around to see the top most teams playing against each other. If Chelsa looses the match, then Liverpool has a lot chance to be take over the 2nd place if it wins Arsanal on 14th. A heavy competition for 2nd place will be between Chelsa, Liverpool and Arsanal.

I really don't want Manchester City to go through this season alone without another competitor. Chelsea, Liverpool must be able to compete with them for the title at the end of the season. I don't think Liverpool should give up now to win the title and leave Manchester City undisturbed in the table. I know City have quality players, but they are still possible to beat.

For me if Manchester City win Chelsea in this upcoming fixture then I think Manchester City have won the league title, because the gap will be too much, about Liverpool I think they won't perform great without there two star men ( Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane) I think they will surely drop points in the premier League before they are back and Manchester City will take advantage of that.

I do not it is possible for Liverpool to catch up with the momentum Manchester city are playing with at the moment. I will say Manchester City have had the factor of luck in their title charge this season. When both Liverpool and Chelsea were dropping points over the festive period due to some absentees that tested positive for Covid-19, Manchester city were busy grinding points and now they have taken a 10-point lead at the top of the Premier League table. Manchester City Squad Depth is really great. That's how Manchester city performance now show their real capability. Now that Mo Salah, Sadio Mane are not in the team till February, it will really clamp down their performance and I have always wanted Klopp to rotate the squad when these stars were around so that they can find the rhythm wirthout them. Now they can not replicate the same performance they had when Mo Salah was around.

Liverpool have chances to make the difference with Manchester City to 8 points, but we have to win them all without problems. But if Manchester City can't be beaten by Chelsea then it's very likely that we will find it difficult to catch up. I hope Manchester City lose this weekend.

I definitely agree with you. And I assume that most people are thinking in the same way too. Because I really consider this league as the most delightful and biggest league in Europe now. As a result, I expect the competition to go on until the end for certain. But when a team have a this much dominance, they are just ending the whole charm of the league. So I hope to see that at least one of the Liverpool-Chelsea duo can catch up with them and maintain the rivalry for the title.

Tough task for Manchester City to beat Chelsea, once more Premier league champions versus European champions.
I'm not sure on whonto win so all I see is a draw and goal/goal, they'll both score against themselves.
Aston Villa will host Manchester United,will Coutinho be on the line up for that game ?

EPL Champions vs UCL Champions (Manchester City vs Chelsea), very interesting.
Manchester City is certainly safer without a lot of burden when facing Chelsea in this match because it has a fairly large difference in points from Chelsea. In addition, Chelsea must return to play the match against Tottenham in the second leg of the EFL Cup 2 days before this big match starts. The fatigue factor will be the reason if Chelsea fail to win against Manchester City, but this will be an advantage that Manchester City will take advantage of during the match.

Chelsea's busy schedule will see Tuchel have to rotate players in the second leg of the EFL Cup vs Tottenham, this is likely what they will do after successfully winning the first leg 2-0.

With the speed at which Guardiola and his prolific team are playing, one won't be wrong if he says: give Manchester City the EPL title already. It has been thrilling and full of positive vibes watching their games at etihad stadium even when they play away. The way the are structured in terms of game tactics is worth studying. Unlike their neighbour Manchester United whose problem goes beyond tactics of their coach but merely the indecisiveness and less confidence of their players on the pitch, for Manchester United to grace the stage of play as a top side a lot of overhaul of team philosophy and players needs to take its course

Although I agree with you on Manchester United, there is still a lot of games ahead of us and we can see an improvement from ManU. But one must also consider the age of Cristiano Ronaldo and how much he can contribute even though he is incredible at his old age. But we now by now that age is simply a number for him and it doesn't matter. I really wonder what he will do.

Also yes, Manchester City also has this years title already I think too. Guardiola is doing brilliantly considering he is managing a team at the EPL, not La Liga. With the way they play, we can consider them the winner of the title this year. I don't see any possibility where they lose the championship.

[diyetisman]

I think that the Manchester City - Chelsea game next week will be a quite satisfying game for most of us. I hope so at least. These teams both have an unbeaten streak for many weeks. Manchester City are in a much better situation now as they won all of their last 11 EPL games. When it comes to Chelsea, they didn't lose their last six EPL games too. But they got four draws in those ones which is not good. But there is a feeling in me like Chelsea will defeat them. Maybe it is really hard but I don't know.

If Manchester City plays like they did with Arsenal, Chelsea can beat them. Chelsea is not a team to be underestimated. Manchester City is a really good team, but we also have to consider the possibility of Chelsea winning. Chelsea can be a good option, especially for betting. Even if it's not a favorite, there are always possibilities.

Honestly I feel like City is so good these days that I feel like they could just beat Chelsea by a hefty margin very easily. Liverpool and Chelsea are fighting for that second position at this point, nobody has any doubt that City would be champions, we all know they have already decided that. Hell sportsbet.io is so sure of it that they decided to pay out early to City outright bets, think about how guaranteed it is looking right now, to be fair they did it last year as well and that really worked as well because City won, and I am guessing same will happen this year as well so they just paid out early but the real winners will be still the winners. City will beat Chelsea, that much I am pretty sure about.

The chance for Manchester City to win in the upcoming matches is surely bigger than Chelsea. They are in a good form and they will play at home. While Chelsea isn't really in a good form after they have a problem with Lukaku. I saw Chelsea attackers become not really as well as before since the problem happened. It makes Chelsea lose their power in the attacking line and they play not really solid anymore. So, I also doubt that Chelsea can win in Manchester City home. But the match should be quite tight, Chelsea isn't a weak team and they have strong defenders. Probably Manchester City wins 2-0 or 2-1 in the upcoming match.

No one following FA Cup and noticing that Arsenal got kicked by the 9th championship team? and that ManU passed with 1 goal vs Aston Villa and that McTominay scored
We will have a mixture of EPL games with EFL Cup matches between Liverpool and Arsenal then Spurs and Chelsea then 3 day later Chelsea will face City and Spurs will face Arsenal. Pretty pressured schedule there

Probably because this is Premier League thread, not a cup thread. Most cup competitions have their unique threads, I don't know if FA Cup have one. Arsenal's loss was a big blow though.
League games will go on today, Southampton will play with Brentford at home. Southampton is favorite by bookmakers, probably due to home advantage. Brentford is higher in standing though. I wouldn't bet on this game as it's open for all three outcomes.

I used to watch FA cups but I find it just a distraction these days. Top Premier League teams do not even see it as a priority since they only send their second tier teams to compete most of the time. It's also not surprising when they lose to Championship teams because of that.

This is what the case has often been before hand, now, times have changed. Just like the Bundesliga where we've got a Bayern Munich dominance of the league, the EPL has turned out to be confined to very few teams in the likes of Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea.  No other team counts so much and you can be almost certain that, these 3 would always be in the top 3 spots while the other teams struggle on whatever spot is left.

Looking at this fact, the rest teams have redirected there energy and force towards the FA and Carabao Cup for there chance of going home with a trophy. Even Europa now has become difficult, not to mention the UCL. So, its not really a game for second eleven anymore, just a slight change but, you could be sure the big dogs would be out once the time is running out.
