Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

Liverpool - Leicester can be really a delightful game hopefully. I expect a big rivalry as we saw such thing two times between them in this season. But actually, that rivalry was about the score, not the performances. Because Liverpool still were the much better playing team in those games. And in Anfield, I think that Liverpool will have a big domination. It is up to Leicester to keep them away as much as possible. But I don't think that they can be successful much. I think Liverpool will destroy them by two goals at least.

What is more important and Liverpool's focus for the game against Leicester I believe is not the number of goals. but winning points. because the difference in points between Liverpool and City is still quite far. Of course, attaching importance to victory to keep getting closer to City would make a lot of sense. they don't want to lose important points in a game like this. whatever the result, the victory must belong to Liverpool.

Winning and get 3 points are important. Most important task is achieving as many points in total as possible. You can not win a title by winning a match at tennis result like 6-0, 6-1, whatever, but if you manage to win 30 matches for example, you will have very good net result to win a league title.

Do you know that AC Milan won a Scudetto based on their outstanding defense system even their attacking players did not manage to score many goals? They just win 1-0 in bunches of matches and went ahead to take Scudetto in Serie A 1993 - 1994. They scored 39 goals in 34 matches but only got 15 conceded goals and managed to win 19 matches.

Liverpool must aim at near future result by building up a solid 2nd position, then they can see what's next with chance to beat Manchester City in the end.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is still 32 years old now and he can contribute a lot to the team he goes. Arsenal have released him and it is said that Barcelona have already reached an agreement with him. But the transfer is still not official as it seems. We don't even know whether the deal is a loan or permanent one. I just see some news claiming that Barcelona are very close to ending the deal and he will undergo medical for Barcelona soon. I reckon that Arsenal did the right thing by releasing him. But I wonder what they will do now. Will they replace him or not?

Someone that is 3years old is not a young player. I think that he is in his late 20. It could be that Barcelona wants some old men with experience rather than young people. My view of Aubameyang is that he doesn't appear firm with the ball.

Wolves - Arsenal is another game I wonder about. Arsenal are shown as the favourite by bookmakers right now and it is totally normal. Arsenal's comeback from a terrible condition has been great to watch and they are at the sixth place in the standings now. They still have two missing games to be played also. If they win those games, they are technically the fourth team in the standings. However, they have a really tough game ahead now. Wolves are one of the difficult teams to be beaten home. They don't lose easily I mean. Even Liverpool barely managed to defeat them by 1-0 away. I wonder how Arsenal will perform against them. If they don't do their best, then they should be ready for another point loss. They couldn't get a win for two weeks and they should prevent it from going up to three.

I'm curious about what Arsenal will do after sending Aubameyang. I guess that they are not planning to fill his place with another centre-forward for now. But if I were in their place, I would have signed a striker before the end of the transfer window. Because they have only Lacazette and Nketiah as strikers right now. And Lacazette is having a terrible season. He scored only three goals in sixteen games. This is a big problem for the team and their not taking an action about this can cause them to be in a problematic condition on the remaining weeks of the league.

Mikel Arteta and Edu are clueless, just want to get rid of this guy without getting anything, no signing of replacement.
I'm looking at all the players Arsenal let go this window, how are they supposed to compete? They've got like 7 total defenders. Expecting them to drop off heavily from where they are. The previous months have ultimately proven there is a clear reliance on Saka and fellow academy product Emile Smith Rowe to produce the goods going forward. Because in the centre-forward role, Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah have not been scoring enough despite plenty of minutes on the pitch. With both forwards less than six months away from their respective contracts expiring. It is a very big risk fighting the top 4 spot without a new striker.

I think I know why arsenal trow Aubameyang away without bring another new striker, is simply because they want to maintain a good harmony in the team, Aubameyang is not training well and without him they play better, and they don't just want to bring anyone they want a marque signing,that's why they were serious with Vlahovic, who later went to juventus. Aubameyang will disabilize the harmony of the team.

Arsenal have working hard how to get new striker before window transfer close but almost striker not happy for joining with Arsenal team, first Fiorentina striker's Dusan Vlahovic most interested for joining with Juventus than get deal with Arsenal and the last have Alvaro Morata keep stay with  Juventus although have close negotiation directly with Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta. I think almost striker not interested for joining with Arsenal when summary window transfer Lutaro Martinez better stay with Inter Milan than joined with Arsenal although have give good offer salary.

Yes, if Arsenal win, they will shift Westham and Manchester United and move up to 4th place. They need a win to continue to compete for tickets to the Champions League next season.
Wolves FC are also definitely aiming for victory, especially when they play in front of their own supporters. If they win, they can even shift Arsenal in the standings.

I think Liverpool will destroy them by two goals at least.

looking at the two teams it's hard to say that liverpool will destroy and leicester, this will be a game of goals on both sides and that liverpool will win, liverpool usually have problems in defense and that's not good, it's something bad and leicester has the habit of scoring goals in many games that they have done even when they lose at least they score a goal and that is the problem for liverpool that has not had a good defense although it has improved in some games. betting on more than 2 goals can also be a good option

true. The number of goals is not a matter, the main thing is the winning points. Liverpool still have one game yet to be played, although the points difference is quite a lot and mancity are more favored to win this season but the season is not over everything may still change drastically, liverpool must remain focused on sticking to the current top table standing. Especially when the UCL final stage starts I think there will be surprises in the EPL table

I think the line up for both teams would decide but from statistics it would be difficult for Liverpool to defeat Leicester city so easily. Analysts are of the opinion on a H2H encounter Liverpool has won 14 games against Leicester while Leicester has been able to win 7 games against Liverpool but this is not a yardstick for prediction. For me Liverpool stands a better chance to win but it might end in a draw

I see EPL became the league the rich people chose to spend their money investing in sport. The amount spent from these three big leagues has a considerable difference.
 
What Newcastle's owners did was like a gamble they spent a lot of money on this transfer to get out of relegation which it's a question of whether their coaches have the ability to build chemestry on their new players so that the target to escape from regelation can be achieved.

It's an old pattern - the EPL is the league most suitable for investment and business, in other leagues you can't just pick up and buy a club - there are many restrictions and even prohibitions on such actions.
Newcastle's new owners seem to be doing the right thing - losing a year (in case of relegation from the EPL) is too expensive, so they are making a good investment to avoid it. And in any case, the further development of the club will require even more investment, so why not start doing it right now.

Everyone is of the same opinion that indeed Newcastle have sung the opportunity to be in the League and occupy a position with the big players. That hope is quite lost and I don't know what Mohammed bin Salman was thinking when he first acquired it and then it was as if he would make Newcastle the most elite and royal club now having to accept being in the relegation zone. Isn't it very unfortunate, because 1 year of course the opportunity to make this club big has a lot of potential.

With the spending of several players, the owners hope they are able to escape the relegation hole. I look at the EPL provisional rankings, Newcastle have a lot of chances of escaping relegation. One team above it is Norwich who have 16 points and have 1 more games. The game still has about 17 times they seem very confident of being able to escape the relegation zone. I also feel confident because they are active in the players transfer this month. At least they have some new players at the moment.

Eddie Howe is testing the qualities of a fishing rod that is considered a sizable waste of money. Is it worth the condition Newcastle have to target out of the relegation zone? I think it's still lacking and if Newcastle are serious about being able to buy players who have lethal attacking quality and under the leadership of Eddie Howe it will be a pretty tough task.

[Cnut237]

Before the takeover, I didn't really mind who got relegated. But now I hope that Newcastle go down. I know that football is all about money, but it's just not fair on the other relegation strugglers if one team can simply buy themselves out of trouble. And I do think it will be tough anyway for all those new players at Newcastle to integrate and start the club on a winning path. They do still have a decent chance of going down, despite all the money flying about.

Seeing the news of Greenwood's release even though on bail, it can still be interpreted that there is still a suspicion of innocence to him.  On the other hand the condition of the team is not doing well with the mistakes he made, the sponsors of Man United condemned his actions.  And although even being released on bail would be difficult for United to keep him, the terms of his contract could be suspended forever.

So true. EPL is indeed the best place to invest, I don't want to criticize other leagues, but if we want to see business opportunities, the EPL is a pretty good place. we can take a comparison with other leagues for example, such as the Bundesliga. investors cannot act freely there because indeed the rules in the league still apply that 51% of club ownership still belongs to CMIIW supporters. In contrast to the English league, it can be said that the largest shareholder will rule. and for newcastle itself I think it's still very reasonable that they have to spend money for now.
Look at City a few years ago before Sheikh Mansour bought it. they also need several seasons to become as strong as they are now

The investigations are continuing, and this certainly wouldn't do anything to help team spirit at Man United, and that was one of their big problems... it is getting quite difficult to see them finishing this campaign in a Champions League spot. As for Greenwood personally, it seems this is effectively the end of his career... unless he is actually innocent and is cleared of all charges, but given the way things have gone so far, that seems quite an unlikely outcome.

Profitable and long-lasting, especially for a club that is on the cusp of the wind and continues to provide something that convinces soccer investors to become promising sponsors. Seeing the position of Newcastle which is always hotly discussed does not knock its owner to fulfill the wishes of the fans. In fact, if it was done early in the transfer window at the start of the season, it would be much better for them to take a seat without being threatened with relegation.

For the kind of case that Greenwood has been accused of doing, in the court this will have to be proven beyond reasonable doubt if he wants to walk as a free man and its unfortunate that his been implicated in such a serious offence which has cost him his place at Manchester United. But whatever the case am hoping he pulls through by being innocent because this could end ones career.
