Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Slow death]

Liverpool performance this season is not like last season, this time Liverpool are not consistent in every game, they are still difficult to find their best form this season.

even last season liverpool already showed a drop in performance in the last premier league games, they don't have a team that stays with its 11 players on the field and wins every year or has the same performance every year, it is necessary to sell some players and bring other better players, unfortunately liverpool is failing in this part. diogo jota, luiz diaz and salah are still a good option, but they need to have a player like haaland or benzema, and that's what's missing in the liverpool attack, this nunez they brought was not a good deal in my opinion. another thing that needs to be better is in midfield and in defense, I also think they need to refresh in this area with the entry of new players. while liverpool doesn't make deep changes then this season we will see many inconsistencies, it will be constant games of draws and defeats. let's look at the city, they always manage to bring excellent players in attack and in other areas, they don't stay still and with the same players for many seasons, pep renews the team, of course there are players he keeps for several seasons

[S A KHAIR]

I believe that Man's departure only exposed Liverpool's problem. The root of Liverpool's problem is their unbalanced midfield. They need a capable right-sided midfielder. Harvey Elliot makes that midfield lightweight because he's just not good at covering Trent. With Elliot in the midfield Liverpool will always be outrun and will make the defense look shambolic. We would have noticed it during the poor coverage with the goal. On the right side, they require a person similar to Thiago. Hopefully, Klopp will take this into account when they play next.

I believe you are referring to Sadio Mane's departure. Yes, Liverpool made a big mistake in letting Mane leave the team because since his departure to Bayern Munich the Liverpool team has not been in a balanced shape again.Not just the midfield alone because Elliott has been doing very well but Liverpool's defense has been porous because the rate at which they concede goals makes me wonder if Van Dijk is still the same defender we saw two seasons ago. Elliot should not be blame because most times Trent makes a lot of runs but fails to fall back when the ball is out of his control.

I totally agree with you. Liverpool management's biggest mistake was releasing Sadio Mane. Sadio Mane probably didn't score too many goals or assists. But Sadio Mane had a big contribution to every victory of Liverpool. Liverpool did not value their legend properly. And Liverpool is now enjoying the results quite well. Even though 6 weeks of Premier League have ended, Liverpool has not been stable yet.

If I look at the schedule it looks like there are only three matches that will be postponed, they are Brighton v Crystal Palace, Manchester United v Leeds and Chelsea v Liverpool. I personally don't really follow developments with the national mourning there but if it is, it becomes a national mourning then I think why there are only a few matches that have been postponed unlike before, delaying all matches seems better. Just curious about the reason they only postponed a few matches, because if I look at the date they can play on the 17th and 18th or their location is not possible to continue the match.

Shortage of security personnel due to still mourning the death of Queen Elizabeth II meant that 3 matches had to be postponed this week,

Brighton v Crystal Palace
Manchester United v Leeds
Chelsea v Liverpool

I think location close with mourning the death of Queen Elizabeth II make third match above postponed and all team will began  Primer League match on early October because after this week have FIFA matchday schedule. Maybe six team above have busy week next time because have two postponed match exactly with team participants on Champion League and Europe League need extra working how to prepare team for two postponed match.

I think Liverpool's current form is understandable because to be honest they've lost some important players since the start of the season. Liverpool is a team that has a chance to do better than other teams like Brighton or Tottenham, but they should definitely try to do it from now on.

Liverpool only lose Mane and see what it looks like now. they have difficulty developing their game in the domestic league. We don't have to blame anyone in this situation because other big clubs haven't found his good form like Chelsea. Liverpool still have enough time to improve and return to the top of the standings where in the upcoming matches they do not have to drop points again. Like Manchester United which has returned to its good form with a few changes made by Erik and I think Kloop can follow in the footsteps of Erik.

How tired I am of reading this set of stamps about the fact that Ronaldo is not a team player and blah blah blah. Basically, this nonsense is generated by his haters. Ronaldo is number one in assists in the Champions League. He probably did these passes because he was selfish and to set a record, right?  
Here is a good selection of how Ronaldo's partners dispose of his most brilliant passes, if I were him, I would stop passing altogether:
https://twitter.com/patrickomife/status/1533849118329929729

Well, You caught me I do hate Ronaldo, Yeah his assisting skill is superb, to the extent that he surely missed an opportunity to score himself, or because of that, he decided he would do it himself, but I guess he doesn't want to be in the Manchester United is true, and no one wants him to be on any team could be a rumor, but I think I was upset that in seeing an article that he will switch to Bayern Munich end up just a rumor upsets me for saying such things, but who am I to judge,


Anyway, these are my picks for tomorrow's games for Premier Leagues,

Aston Villa FC VS Southampton FC

Stake odds for this game are 2.09 for Aston and 3.60 for Draw while 3.50 for Southampton, for getting a draw against Man City, is a great game actually so Aston Villa is my pick,

Nottingham Forest VS Fulham FC

Stake odds for this game are 2.80 for Nottingham, and 3.40 for Draw while 2.60 for Fulham, I think this could be a draw, this is just my hunch but I may be wrong aswell, but I will bet for a draw game,

Wolverhampton Wanderers FC VS Manchester City FC

The stake odds for this game are 8.80 for Wolverhampton, and 5.60 for Draw while 1.34 for Man City, this game is going to be one-sided, pointing out to the Man CIty but I am not betting for this game at all, but my pick are the Man City,

[Coyster]

Leicester is not the Leicester I have seen performances in the last few seasons. Yes, their decline is very clear after being without a win in the Premier League until week 6. Their achievement was only able to play a draw and the rest ended in defeat, which caused them to occupy the bottom of the standings. Not only that, they are one of the two teams that have conceded the most goals.

Quite right, and all of these stems from their very bad transfer business for a couple of years now, and with this summer's being the worst i think, they might think they still have ample time to recover, and definitely they do, but it is something they have to do fast, if a team has a diminished morale and they sit bottom of the table, it becomes extremely difficult to overcome that sitiation, Everton were very lucky to escape relegation last season, Leicester have started in similar fashion as they did last season and if they can't come up with solutions pretty fast, thus Leicester might be playing in the Championship next season, except they end up as lucky as Everton was last season in the final few matches.

Having said that, all eyes would be on the Leicester manager right now, he'd know it that he is lucky to still be in the job, but he'd also know the patience of the board can run out any short time from now, prolly this weekend, if the lose to Spurs which they likely will, i think Brendan Rodgers could be fired.

  it's good that you admit it. In that case, I have nothing against it, since questions of taste are a purely individual phenomenon. Bayern are unlikely to sign Ronaldo even if by winter they realize that their attack is far from ideal, at the moment a move to Chelsea is most likely. Plus, a lot will depend on how the World Cup will go.

[poldanmig]

From yesterday’s game, Yesterday I was able to pick up some sights of improvements on their style of play. The midfield looked set even though it wasn’t well organized when defending. At least Raheem Sterling and Reece James were able to run at defenders and were also having good linkup. I think going forward they looked better. People shouldn’t be jumping to conclusions after 1 game with the new manager in charge when he's had so little time to effect things.

Their new manager of course takes time to adjust to the players. and make the best strategy and squad choice for him.
Seeing some of the movement and possession of the ball by Chelsea is quite good. but we have to see it against a stronger team. then we will see the success of Chelsea with their new coach.
There's no need to rush, fans and club management should give the coach more opportunities.

Potter has just joined chelsea so it is unlikely that he will be able to revive chelsea in a short time, maybe there are many who doubt potter's capacity to coach a big team but I think Brighton performance so far can be proof that potter is a good coach, Brighton was originally a club weak but has now become a strong club under Potter coaching and it's not in an instant, so it's good for chelsea fans to continue to support Potter every his step of the way, because after all Potter needs to do a lot of improvements in terms of strategy and how to play chelsea which is still visible as a relic of Tuchel, I think with potter ability maybe we'll see a change in the next two or three weeks.

Liverpool only lose Mane and see what it looks like now. they have difficulty developing their game in the domestic league. We don't have to blame anyone in this situation because other big clubs haven't found his good form like Chelsea. Liverpool still have enough time to improve and return to the top of the standings where in the upcoming matches they do not have to drop points again. Like Manchester United which has returned to its good form with a few changes made by Erik and I think Kloop can follow in the footsteps of Erik.

One Mane could not influence the game of the whole team, especially since in Bavaria he is also not the most important player now. Teams like Liverpool and Bayern are building a mechanism that should work under any conditions. Liverpool are now in a decline, sometimes this happens, so far nothing critical has happened, the gap from the leading group is not big, and remember Liverpool's winning streak that ended last season.

[G_Besar]

Liverpool performance this season is not like last season, this time Liverpool are not consistent in every game, they are still difficult to find their best form this season. The loss of Mane in the Liverpool squad is very visible, the combination of Mane and Salah has produced many goals for Liverpool. Nunez, who was brought in as a substitute for Mane, has not been able to connect with Salah, thus making Liverpool goal productivity decline this season. Klopp as Liverpool coach must improve the team's mentality to show the best performance, if Liverpool are not consistent in every game, Liverpool will find it difficult to get a trophy this season.

I think Liverpool's inconsistency doesn't necessarily mean they've lost Mane. However, an injury storm at the start of the season really made the Reds dizzy and couldn't show their best performance. I believe Liverpool's performance will improve again if all the players get back fit.

That was announced days ago and tomorrow we will have a game between Nottingham - Fulham and Aston Villa - Southampton with a slight advantage for Fulham and Villa.
The other games will follow later but unfortunately the most interesting game is postponed between Chelsea and Liverpool..

[imamusma]

Potter has just joined chelsea so it is unlikely that he will be able to revive chelsea in a short time, maybe there are many who doubt potter's capacity to coach a big team but I think Brighton performance so far can be proof that potter is a good coach,

Nobody expected Potter to be able to change Chelsea's form in such a short time, it just doesn't make sense. Potter had to adjust to the Chelsea players and that took time and hard work. You can expect him to make a good impact after a few games and adapt his strategy to his players, but then again it won't happen instantly.

His experience as Brighton coach will help Potter have a good season with Chelsea but if he fails then I certainly won't be surprised. Potter is not a coach who is expected to be with Chelsea in the long term, he is a coach who might get a chance to stay if Chelsea finish in the top 4 again like last season. Lots of doubts about his coaching abilities and capacity, it was completely normal for a non popular trainer like Potter. But with Chelsea, he will quickly become famous.

Even though in this case I think many people are waiting between the Chelsea and Liverpool matches, but indeed this has become a decision and cannot be contested. But in this case of course there are some other games worth watching like City against Wolves, Tottenham and Licester and I would like to see Newcastle against Bournnemouth. Even if this game looks like an easy win for City, Tottenham and Newcastle could also be a win for them of course it's still worth watching.

[Zackgeno96]

This is going to be a difficult season for Chelsea. Not sure how to rate them right now. Also achieved a bad result in the CL. They are currently in 6th place, but not all have had top teams. They can easily move up the rankings, but the game is not good. Arsenal are doing well this season with just 1 loss and 5 wins. Arsenal have also played better and better in recent years, and it seems to have been that way from the start. I'm curious if they play against top teams like Man City how it will go. We haven't seen Arsenal in the CL for a long time unfortunately. Maybe this season?

[boris singer]

Bayern are unlikely to sign Ronaldo even if by winter they realize that their attack is far from ideal, at the moment a move to Chelsea is most likely. Plus, a lot will depend on how the World Cup will go.

But it's also still difficult, because obviously when they signed they had to look at the performance, wasn't it and now a deal is not possible, He has to put in a good performance now hoping Chelsea still want him in the transfer window next season because he is one of the most important figures in the game. it's hard to get distracted and when his form isn't progressing at the moment are Chelsea still willing to waste money on him?

[Avirunes]

Liverpool have time but I am not sure about top of standings. If City maintains their run then it will be very hard for Liverpool. Also it is hard to keep flawless run when they are going through changes and it is not working well on top of that. Liverpool need to come back into game right now or their chance at winning title is slowly getting out of hands.

Klopp and ten Haag have different approaches and I think Klopp will get his team fixed. They are having a rough patch after such a long time. He just needs sometime and I am sure the team will be right on its track.

[ShowOff]

Last season Liverpool was impressive in the Premier League and Champions League. I can't believe their start to the season has made such a big difference with Mane's departure. I hope a lot for Nunez to be able to collaborate with Salah in scoring goals. but they don't seem to be on the same frequency yet. seen in the match against Ajax. Nunez failed to convert Salah's mature pass into a goal. this could be bad for Nunez, as Klopp might also prefer the performance of the trio (Salah, Jota, and Diaz) up front for Liverpool.

I don't know if Nunez will fail this season to become an important striker at Liverpool, but let him adapt well without much pressure. Fans must be prepared for all the consequences regarding new players, including Nunez. He will be good with time but Klopp has to really make him confident in every match.

Nunez's adaptation process did not go well where in the early matches of this season he had to be given a red card. He hasn't played in a few games and by then he has gone down and stopped scoring goals. Every fan expects the best from him, but Liverpool's poor form at the moment is a boon for Manchester City and Arsenal in the top standings.

[Issa56]

As for Sterling, he is the one who scores the goals and that is the main point to be underlined.

We know that sterling was the one that scored for Chelsea yesterday, which everybody think he performed well, Chelsea draw yesterday's match against FC Salzburg, sterling scored just 1 goal yesterday after wasting multiple opportunities which he was suppose to have converted to goal, if he was able to convert all the opportunies he had yesterday into goals, am sure Chelsea won't have draw the match they played yesterday, if Chelsea won yesterday's match they won't have been in 4th position on the table. It's really annoying, how will Chelsea be in 4th position and their last two matches have been against small teams.

[borovichok]

This is going to be a difficult season for Chelsea. Not sure how to rate them right now. Also achieved a bad result in the CL. They are currently in 6th place, but not all have had top teams. They can easily move up the rankings, but the game is not good. Arsenal are doing well this season with just 1 loss and 5 wins.

We haven't seen Arsenal in the CL for a long time unfortunately. Maybe this season?

Is not too late for Chelsea to turn things around, I think there is lot of positive in their champions League game against Salzburg, I have strong belief that Graham potter will fix this, he has quality players here at Chelsea than he does at Brighton and good wing backs like James and his former player cucurela that can allow him play his style of formation. Arsenal are doing well right now they are topping the league but with just one point ahead of Manchester city and Tottenham Hotspur and I don't think personally that they can retain that position before the players travel to the world cup.

[fullhdpixel]

There is no reason to think that Chelsea will start playing well with a new coach very soon. The new coach needs time. A coach needs time to adjust to the players in the team and to understand the mindset of the players. Also the new coach has to find out the internal problems of the team. And it is definitely time consuming. And so I would say Chelsea needs a lot more time to stabilize the squad. And so may they will not fight for Champions League or Premier League title this season. They are already far behind.

I agree, the possibility that Chelsea will play better in the near future is still there, but I would say it is unlikely. I don't see the chemistry built by their new coach, and I haven't seen the direction of their game until now. I would say that in the near future Chelsea's game will improve if now I see the development of what is shown. But so far I haven't found that.

I agree too, the fact that they are in turmoil will cause the team to get worse even more. They should have stayed a bit the same, spending 200+ million dollars may look like a recipe for success but in reality they just overpaid for players and they shouldn't really be expecting much success after such a "failed" transfer season. You could have spent that money on just one or two players, much less probably, and keep the rest and you would do fine.

I understand they wanted Fofana, but get Aubameyang? I would think they could have gotten Ronaldo or some other star for striker along with Fofana and be done with it, that would have made them so much better.
