Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[cryptofrka]

PL is finally returning and we've got Arsenal - Tottenham to look forward to.

Liverpool is playing Brighton who's had a fantastic start to the season and I hope that Klopp has used this long break to work on some issues the team is having.

We have started really slowly and there's no more time to waste. I hope it begins on Saturday.

I'm interested in Arsenal vs Tottenham. This will be very exciting because the difference between the two points is only 1 point. both are equally prolific in scoring goals, as well as their strong defense.
Arsenal will probably be a bit ahead, but I hope Tottenham won't give up so easily. in the previous meeting of the two teams, Tottenham won 3-0 against Arsenal. although the current situation is different. I hope Tottenham gives an interesting game.

They’re playing very good now. Beating smaller teams has been a problem for them in recent years. And that has been one of the reasons for their inconsistencies. Also the inability to maintain fitness when they start playing good games. This has also been their biggest problem; injuries. They lost their game to Manchester United because of this sole reason; no available backup for their injured key players. It was really a poor decision to not sign anyone when the transfer window was open to make up for their injured payers. Now they’ll have to manage and fight in their absence. I’m looking forward to this North London derby. I see Arsenal winning this one as Tottenham have not won at the Emirates since November 2010. With the available players in the team, Arsenal will definitely win this one.

Arsenal position at the top of the standings is only temporary, they will continue to face tough opponents. In terms of mental toughness and of course as a giant club. Over the last few games, Arsenal has been spoiled with small clubs. They enjoy winning easily. When dealing with the mentality of players like Man United, it is undeniable that Arsenal lost. It proves that Arsenal is not completely safe from threats. Then prepare yourself against Tottenham, it will be more complicated and difficult. Tottenham have played very well with a record that is not much different from that of Arsenal. The difference in mentality distinguishes the two clubs.

seems good news has come from the arsenal club. Previously as we know some Arsenal players got injured so some players didn't play in the previous game like Martin Odegaard who didn't play because of injury against Brentford. but the good news is the condition of Martin Odegaard and several other players are reported to have recovered from their injuries. so it is possible that when against Tottenham the injured Arsenal players can already compete. that will make the match between Arsenal and Tottenham even more difficult to predict.

It is time for Chelsea to get their first win under Graham Potter's management. Their opponent is Crystal Palace and it is an away game. Chelsea should be able to defeat them just as they have been doing it for a long time. I know that they are in a new phase with Potter. They need to be in control throughout the game but this isn't enough of course. We have seen it in the Salzburg game. They dominated it but had big scoring issues. As long as they manage to score at least two goals I expect them to win comfortably.

[bering]

Manchester United will hope to replicate that tactics they used against Arsenal to face this Manchester city team. They believe that Manchester city will set up their normal high line while them, Manchester United will hit them on the counter. So they will be hoping that their players make some errors in the midfield so they can ponder on their mistakes to counter attacker them. That’s was the same tactics they used to win against Arsenal. I’m not sure it will work in this fixture. Because Manchester city is an experienced team and they study their opponents so they will try and avoid errors leading to goals.

I think if Manchester United repeat same tactics they played against Arsenal it will cause problems for Manchester City because City's defense isn’t solid and they have conceded quite a number of goals this season even in games they won. Manchester Uniited's quick transition style of play will cause problems for Manchester City who like to come all out and attack.

Ten Hag know Manchester City quality is more better than his squad so if he used attacking strategies against them i am sure Manchester United will lose so he probably will let Manchester City to control ball possessions and waiting to analyzed the weakness of Manchester City and attempts to scoring goals but he must know Manchester City is different from Arsenal and maybe similar strategies will not working well especially they have brilliant midfielder players such as De Bruyne or Bernardo Silva and their goals machine Haaland

If Chelsea can win then they will enter the top 5 and getting closer to the top team's or at least replace Brighton
But my prediction is the score will be low maybe 1 goal difference.

I think holding Erling Haaland down is already settled for me with Lisandro Martinez, he did before when they faced of ( Ajax and Borrussia Dortmund ), holding down Phil Foden or Mahrez has been sorted by Malacia, Grealish by Dalot, my big scare are from Bernado Silva, Gundogan and Kelvin De Bruyne, they are the propeller's of Pep Guardiola's plan.

I don't care what strategy he Ten Hag uses but I want to see how he faces Pep Guardiola on Sunday, as that will see how tactical he's ready for the Premier League, I think this has got to be his biggest test in the premier league since they both worked and partnered at Bayern Munich.

Not only Martin Odegaard, currently Thomas Partey, Tierney, Tomiyasu and Zinchenko are also in good condition and of course ready for this match.
I don't think there's any big problem between the two players now because there's nothing to worry about there. now it's just a matter of seeing whether Conte or indeed Arteta have prepared the scheme well now because at this time there are no problems and both teams are playing very well so it's just a matter of waiting for who is the best between the both.

I mean, being top of the league doesn't always make one better than the other; since the beginning of the season, Manchester has only dropped two points in a game they played well but were unlucky not to pick up the full points, and since then they have been riding every fixture with a big goal margin, whereas Arsenal's early fixtures were somehow better than the other top four teams' fixtures and they struggle in most of these games but were lucky enough to get result. 

I have watched all City's games this season, i don't know if you know, but i am a City supporter, and i can tell you categorically that we haven't been at our fluid best in many games in the Premier League this season, our outstanding games were against West Ham, Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth, but you see our games against teams like Newcastle were we had to come from two goals down to get a 3-3 draw, mind you that Newcastle were somewhat the better team that day, or against Crystal Palace were we had to come back from two goals down to win 4-2, we had a pretty bad first half, but an excellent second half.

Having said that, the 1-1 draw against Aston Villa wasn't impressive too, City struggled quite a lot in that game, and even in our last outing against Wolves, for someone who didn't watch the game, you could prolly think since the scoreline was 3-0 in favor of City, that they dominated the game, but no, City were sluggish throughout that game, and we were lucky to score three goals without having to be on our best form. So my point is basically that City haven't really been excellent as you think, and they have also had their own fair share of luck like Arsenal, prolly even more, thus i think Arsenal might actually be the best team thus far in the league, but it might not last too long.

If you've been following both team games this season, you'll know that Arsenal has only had three good games this season, against the likes of poor Leicester City, Nottingham Forest, and Brentford. The rest of the games we managed to pull out results by chance, and they weren't anything special. When you watch Manchester City play, you see a team fighting to retain the league title, whereas when you watch Arsenal play, you see a bunch of kids fighting for a top-four finish. Using the most energy at the start of the season is not a problem, but maintaining the tempo for a longer period of time is, and this is where Manchester City edges out Arsenal.

Tottenham look more dangerous than Arsenal.

All six wins were good games and important wins after all the purpose of competing in the league is to win games and grab points against your opponents and that what Arsenal team is doing. You count good games and leave out the game against Fulham, a game that was very tough and competitive, in that game Fulham equalized and then Arsenal responded immediately with strong pressure on Fulham's defense to get the second goal. If you can write that game off then you are been bias and not giving the team credit for their efforts.

Most likely Graham Potter will get his first win away to Crystal Palace, most likely Graham Potter will give Armando Broja a chance to play up front by replacing Aubumayeng who has been inconsistent in his last two games. after joining Chelsea, good news. also comes for coach Graham Potter as N'golo Kante is ready to be used in this match for the first time, having missed out with injury last August, and 2021 FIFA's goalkeeper of the year, Edouard Mendy, who missed the last two games through injury is also ready to play. bring it back in the next game.

I am surprised that there are people who follow England football and will be confident that Crystal Palace is an easy win for Chelsea. I just laugh at people how they will lose money in bet this weekend.
If you don't know what is happening, let me tell you that Crystal Palace is not a walk over club, they are the spoiler team in English Premier League. They have the ability to draw any team and they have the ability to win anyteam and it is just for them to work hard.
Zaha is a player that is ready to terrorise any defense from beginning of the match till the end.

I think you're underestimating Crystal Palace here, although they're currently on 16th position, but you need to look their past matches. They can win against Aston Villa and they can score 2 goals against Manchester City though they're still losing. Chelsea also in their worst phase since their coach got fired and the new coach need to adapt their teammates first.

Since both of the clubs doesn't favor to score many goals, I will bet draw since I think it would be ended 1-1.

Crystal Palace have enough resources to make Chelsea surprised especially this match will be hosted after FIFA days. Chelsea have many international calls for national duties and I am sure many of Chelsea players are not at best fitness.

Aditionally, Chelsea have very bad form recent weeks and Crystal Palace are not fearful of top clubs. They are big barrier for Chelsea to pass through with three points.

Since both of the clubs doesn't favor to score many goals, I will bet draw since I think it would be ended 1-1.

Sounds like a draw is a good bet but 1-1 is not a good choice about total scored goals, I think so. This match can be goal productive.

Driving by luck does not win titles because luck does not last; sooner or later, you will be exposed. Mind you, I'm not saying the Arsenal team isn't good enough, and I'm not dismissing their efforts thus far this season; nobody expected them to be this good or to be on top of the league at this point; what I'm saying is that most of the games they won were due to pure luck, and yes, this happens in football; even when you're playing poorly, you can still get results from a single goal chance. However, in order to compete for the league, you must have a strong squad depth, which Arsenal lacks.

Fulham was far more better in that game, Arsenal only manages to get into the game in the last 20mins and got the winning goal.

I hope so but remember that when sometime another has been performed worst but sometime chelsea is still feeling difficult to win against it. I don't know why but when i were watching chelsea and i just see how hard striker of chelsea try to make a goal but never got a golden chance to make it happen. it seems like midfielder has become the main problem since there's no kante caused by he was injury and jorginho didn't perform so well.

[KTChampions]

I didn’t really understand how the fact that Tottenham did not win away from Arsenal means that Arsenal would win. What if there is a tie and your bet is burned out? Bookmakers estimate the probability of Arsenal winning at less than 50%, I tend to trust them.
And why did you take the statistics for the last 11 years, and not for 20 or 50? After all, it should be more accurate 

These statistics will not be useful if the players are not playing well on the field. Arsenal is in good form now and the match is their home match. Considering these two aspects, the Arsenal team can be considered the favorite in this match. But if Tottenham's Harry Kane and Heung Min son can play well and score goals then I think Arsenal will lose points in this match. Although Arsenal is favorites considering the home match. I think Tottenham will win this match or the match will be a 2-2 draw.

Well, that is, in fact, everything depends on those who play here and now and not on statistics for 11 years, right? I know only one option when the statistics of 10 years ago has at least some meaning: if the style/model of the clubs' game does not change, but only the players change and there are some patterns in the opposition of models (something like teams playing on counterattacks in 60 % of cases win teams that play ball control). But in this pair, I do not see this historical confrontation between game models.

You're right, don't underestimate Crystal Palace even though they are no better than Chelsea. Because Chelsea also cannot be said to be good after the departure of Thomas Tuchel who was sacked a few weeks ago. I'm not completely sure that this will be a win for Chelsea, but on the other hand I can't say that Crystal Palace can win this match.
But if I bet I'm more likely to pick Chelsea for me to bet on, that's a pretty good chance than betting on Crystal Palace.

[rahmad2nd]

seems good news has come from the arsenal club. Previously as we know some Arsenal players got injured so some players didn't play in the previous game like Martin Odegaard who didn't play because of injury against Brentford. but the good news is the condition of Martin Odegaard and several other players are reported to have recovered from their injuries. so it is possible that when against Tottenham the injured Arsenal players can already compete. that will make the match between Arsenal and Tottenham even more difficult to predict.

This is what concerns me, after the international break several Arsenal players were reported to have suffered injuries. so that some media newspapers say, some core arsenal players will be threatened to miss ahead of the london derby.
One of them is Martin Odegaard who is reported to be absent in this match. but if the news is true as you say, I hope he has no problem with his fitness.

Initially I was optimistic that the Gunners would be able to beat Tottenham this week, however, it looks like Arteta needs a special strategy to work around options if some of his core players have to rest.

[Tony116]

Leicester have their biggest opportunity ahead on this week to get their first win in the league.

They are going to host Nottingham. Nottingham are also one of the problematic teams in defense but Leicester are better than them offensively now. Interestingly Nottingham are still struggling to play well as a team after literally changing the whole squad. While they are facing this problem Leicester can benefit from it by using their attacking power. They desperately need a win now to start recovering. It is difficult for them to solve their defensive issues without new transfers. But they can at least take advantage of this kind of chances to win and get themselves out of the relegation area.

With record transfers surely Nottingham Forrest is the biggest failure in this season and fail to have any positive impression in their first seven matches which is going to be big dilemma for the management with now going to face Leicester City which is also in deep trouble as they fail to keep few quality players and have no enough funds to bring good players which are now having deep impact on their stay in Premier League because they are also fail to have any win in seven matches with the worst defense which is already conceded 22 goals in seven matches mean things are not going good and if they fail to have win this match against Nottingham Forrest then surely all hopes will be ended for survival in this season, and they have to go down.

This is good opportunity for them if they are able to win this match surely confidence will be high and then Bournemouth and Crystal Palace can bring better results after this possible win otherwise end of the road for them in Premier League.

It is also my opinion that at some point the weight will be gone for good. Leicester City is going to finally be able to get a win against their name. There is a good chance that Nottingham Forest will lose against them. Personally, I am actually going to be surprised if somehow this match ends in a draw. Additionally, I do not believe that there will be a huge goal difference at the end of this game. If we look at the goal difference between both teams till now, we will see that there is hardly anything to separate both teams.
There is going to be a fight between Crystal Palace and Chelsea on Saturday, and I think we know how it will turn out.

[wiss19]

The intensity of the game will obviously be very high because indeed they are in prestige even though their strengths are still different and too far away in my opinion, but as you say at this time the rivals are only from their big names a few years ago not in terms of performance and competition because they are in it is still quite difficult actually for Manchester United to be at the same level as City.

Actually, Manchester United is at the same level as Manchester City if from inside they have no problems and can work as a team well, but in reality Manchester United is constrained by serious problems inside and ultimately makes them unable to work as a team, only the influence of a few people. which makes Manchester United can not be solid. Hopefully Manchester United will soon solve the problem and replace him with a better player who can be managed well.

Now after having the worst start of this season they are improving and giving their best which is surely a big positive point for them because with this performance they can achieve some good results in coming weeks as well and challenge for staying into top four is now also very tough for all teams because improvement is working good for them and quality is also good with now mostly teams are having same level players which are doing good job.

In this derby match we can expect good equal performance from both teams as both are going with quality players even Haaland is going to be big advantage for them but still it's not easy for them to break Manchester United defense and have their desired result recently with the coming of few players from Real Madrid and Ajax thing are favoring them for staying at good rank for the end of this season.
