Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[naira]

With two goes down to a stubborn Brighton, this is going to be a lose for the Blues no doubt about that but not sure what you mearnt by " Chelsea will be willing to work for Man United tomorrow."  

Regarding that, of course you know that tomorrow Manchester United will play against West Ham. Automatically, if Chelsea doesn't play ahead today and the points don't add up, then the 5th standings can be taken by Manchester United. The difference between the two is not too far, which is 1 point adrift and Erik Ten Hag cannot continue to draw with clubs in the Premier League.

With West Ham's condition not so good, now is an opportunity for Erik Ten Hag to maximize his players. Although not entirely sure that tomorrow Manchester United will be easy to beat the team of David Moyes.

Brighton 3:0 Chelsea HT...

It is so obvious that Graham Potter decided to train his players on how to score Own Goals  .  After Troosard gave his team the early 5 minutes lead, Loftus Cheek and Chaloba decided to practice what they learnt during training by scoring 2 own goals.
Wait for more in the second half....

Brighton have had three losses and zero wins in their last 5 games. But today they are playing against Chelsea, and Potter is their former coach - apparently it has grown into something personal   which is why we see such an absurd score after the first half. I'm not sure that Chelsea will be able to come back after the break and fight at least for a draw. I just hope that the final score will be decent.

What's wrong with Chelsea's performance today even in the first 15 minutes they conceded 2 goals. Now that Chelsea's game doesn't look so promising, I don't think Graham Potter can't put the first squad in without Aubameyang because Chelsea's front line is always blunt in executing. If this ends in defeat, then Chelsea will be willing to work for Man United tomorrow. There was still a chance in the second half, but the chances of winning today were slim.

I didn't expect brighton to score 3 goals in the first half. is this a sign the Brighton players want to show the fans that they can be more aggressive since Graham's departure or they want to embarrass their former coach. Well whatever it is, I am very impressed with the attack they built in the first half, they were able to make the tempo of the game more aggressive compared to the previous few matches. in other matches tottenham are still 1-0 down from bournemouth and newscastle looks like they will keep the lead they have until the end of the game.

Quiet lucky that Chelsea got an early second half goal which has boosted their confidence to continue fighting but it is difficult to believe that Chelsea will be able to get a draw in this kind of England that Nottingham Forest wins Liverpool. Chelsea might be able to get one more goal but Brighton will also get another goal which will make it difficult for Chelsea to get a draw.

2 favorite teams are behind their opponent now, Chelsea is losing by 3-1 while Tottenham is losing by 2-1.
What is wrong with these 2 teams, they are on top 5 in the current standing but they are playing poorly.
If they can make a great come back to win the match, it will be a big advantage for Manchester United.
At least United can overtake Chelsea's position and equalize the points to Tottenham if United can beat West Ham tomorrow.  

[MinoRaiola]

Man City will finish their pursuit of points against Arsenal by playing against Leicester. There is no time for Man City to let the score draw. Pep Guardiola will immediately keep his distance for a while and return to focus on the Champions League where Pep Guardiola can keep his players in top condition even though the opponent is Sevilla.

Next up is the Chelsea vs Brighton match, so seeing Chelsea win narrowly, there is little they can do to take 4th place in the standings. Discussions with Liverpool, emphasized that they must move faster before being left far behind by Man United.

City wins only 1-0 without haaland, he ist injured (mistake in the last game). But the close win was typical, Manchester in away games, not really good. But there 3 points, so it doesn't matter if it's 1-0 or 3-0. Chelsea is a big surprise so far..they lose the game? But they just scored the 1:3.

[arimamib]

The score is not 2-0. Brighton is leading the match now. It's impossible for chelsea to make its comeback with the current play style. The team looks horrible right now. In less than 20 minutes and brighton able to make two goals against chelsea.
It's a magic for chelsea to make 3 goals to win the match, the performance of chelsea is so bad this time. I will not be surprised it chelsea will be loosing three points again. This is a disaster for chelsea.
Chelsea looks so difficult to win in EPL compared with champion league. The competition is very strict these days. Chelsea can't make three goals without a miracle to happen with the team.

Brighton displayed a very extraordinary game, the attack built by the former Potter team made it difficult for the Chelsea defense to withstand attacks from Brighton players which resulted in 2 OG from Chelsea players in the first half.
Left behind by three goals in the first half made Chelsea players more depressed, Chelsea managed to reduce the position 3-1 early in the second half. Potter must chase two goals in the game to avoid being humiliated by his former team, Chelsea must struggle to catch up to keep their position in the list of the top four. Chelsea is in danger of losing its position if it loses to Brighton, Manchester United who are below it can take Chelsea's position if they are able to beat West Ham.

An interesting match day life for sure. I wonder how Chelsea isn't taking advantage of the opportunities that have opened up in the second half. Most of which K. Havertz have been in the forest front and even the goal he manged to score with a header was poorly directed. He's advantage was being too close to the goal keeper and as such, he couldn't see much of the ball. The rest of there touches where wrong passes and Sterling was often being met by the defenders as though he hit a brick wall. A good thing they've brought in E. Aubameyang in time and maybe, just maybe they would get a second goal but the possibility of a draw is a big doubt.

Tottenham are more of a worse side compared to Chelsea
Conte needs to change his tactics
If he continues with it to the next level of the Group stage in Champions League he will be left with nothing but to be demoted back to play the premier league and other domestic game's.

~
First half and Chelsea has already conceded 3 goals of which 2 of those goals are Own goals from Loftus-Cheek and Chalobah. Its been unbelievable and Brighton Hove Albion is making it look so easy. There performance have been something properly cooked up. They won Manchester United and evn in the game against Manchester City which they lost, they were able to win in bal possession against a team like Manchester City, known for bing in control of there matches.
I don't think there would be any chance of comeback for Chelsea in this encounter.

Terrible ball control in front of the goal post and defense by Chelsea and hence they conceded two own goals but you should not forget the incredible saves by the Brighton goalie Robert Sánchez and i have seen a few sure certain goals that were saved by him. 20 minutes left in this match and i am expecting  one more goal from Chelsea and hopefully they will be able to score against Sánchez.

Edit:
Brighton once again scored during the injury period and a terrible day for Chelsea ended .

This was beyond my prediction, because at first I still felt that they would be evenly matched in this regard but Chelsea were really messed up in their defence.
2 players having an own goal obviously this is not very good for them. On the other hand, the attack line is still a little problematic because there are still some mistakes that really don't need to happen but they do.
Now that 70 minutes have passed, I'm a bit pessimistic for Chelsea at the moment.

NEWCASTLE no longer a small club

If you are a gambler and you are still having the thought that Newcastle United is a small club please erase that thought before you lose your money. Those guys have transformed and are much more better that you think. They can win any team in England and they can score Hugh number of goals. I just wish to inform you.

Newcastle 3:0 Aston Villa....

[Ludmilla_rose1995]

Leicester will not be easy to give up, because even though Leicester defended more because Manchester City did not stop attacking but Leicester still had efforts to score goals. Anyway this is a big chance for Leicester at least to draw Manchester City or lose by only one goal difference is not bad either, because at this moment Haaland cannot be played because he is still injured.

Sorry to Leicester, they tried to defend but Manchester City later scored at the early minutes of the second half. With what I am seeing according to how this match is, Leicester is likely to lose this match, or probably if they are eager to score, this may open more ways to Man City to score more goals.

Leicester also gave good resistance to Man City, even though Leicester lost to Ball Possession, their shot and shot-on-goal statistics were almost the same. Man City's front line is also very less sharp without Haaland's presence.

Manchester City's performance was not bad. Although it was a very narrow win, I am happy with this win. Because Leicester City was not a weak opponent. And at home, Leicester City is a strong team. However, Leicester's performance this season is not very good. Yet they often surprise everyone by performing well against the bigger teams. So even though Manchester City won by just 1 goal I would say their performance was good. They had some good attacks. They are capable of playing well without Haaland. At the same time, I would say City's defense is very strong and stable. They successfully countered every Leicester attack.

Manchester city has shown us that they are not too dependent on Haalaand, even though currently haaland is injured but the victory is still theirs after beating leicester 0-1, this victory has lifted the position of manchester city temporarily to 1st position shifting arsenal to second place which indeed will play its match week 12 tomorrow, currently there are some interesting matches to watch such as the match Brighton vs Chelsea and also Tottenham vs Bournemouth, the two big teams namely Chelsea and Tottenham are in a state of lagging and we can see if the two big teams are at the moment increase the intensity of their attacks to achieve victory.

Temporary scores for other matches:
Bournemouth 2 Vs 2 Tottenham
Brentford 1 Vs 1 Wolves
Brighton 3 Vs 1 Chelsea
C. Palace 1 Vs 0 Southampton
Newcastle 3 Vs 0 Aston Villa

[alpamar99]

The absence of Haaland made Manchester City unable to maximize the team's performance and only managed to collect 1 goal. Of course Bruyne and Foden could not maximize when the executor Haaland was not there, in the last minute Leicester also made Manchester City's defense almost falter. I bet on Manchester City and it wasn't too bad despite the slim score. it's just that expectations above 1 goal should be a priority because they have to reduce the difference in points from Arsenal.

But in this case, of course it's still pretty good because with these 3 points they are still trying to stick to Arsenal although I don't think this will change their point margin because Arsenal can also win against Nottingham Forest.
It's interesting to see Leicester in this I think they will focus on defending but against Manchester City they played open and tried to match City's quick attacks. Even though it's a loss, it's not too embarrassing.

History has repeated itself again today as Man city won Leicester city 1-0 away goal.
Man City have move to top of the table with one point ahead of Asernal.

Man city dominated the field and De bruyne was everywhere, I will say he is the man of the match as he scored the only winning goal with a wonderful free kick. Leicester City tried try best but they didn't make use of the opportunities they had.

Man city has won Leicester city four times straight in king power stadium.Chelsea is losing 3-1 at Falmers stadium, the blues didn't believe this will happen to them.

[Velvet78]

It was such a horrendous game for Chelsea today. I still don't understand how they can lose to Brighton by a score like 4-1. I believed in Chelsea to win this game honestly because their new manager was Brighton's previous manager at the same time. However this just didn't become an advantage for Chelsea. Instead Brighton found a way to use this to their advantage.

This was a proof that Chelsea were still not in a very credible condition. They still have significant weaknesses as it seems. It can't be acceptable to lose by a heavy score against even in an out-of-form Brighton. I hope that Potter can prevent this from being the start of a bad form.

[hahay]

Is anyone watching the match live between Brighton v Chelsea? Are they really playing as they should and nothing odd about their gameplay, as even two of Brighton's goals came through own goals.
I'm just worried there is a hidden game between them because we know Graham Potter just yesterday or recently left Brighton plus, Brighton in their last five matches did not get a win. Then, how can Brighton suddenly win with a temporary score of 3-1 and even Brighton can win at half time with a score of 3-0.

I really can't believe Chelsea are still in such a good trend so far, but suddenly their performance immediately plummeted against a team previously coached by Graham Potter. Indeed, if I consider from the odds before the match even Chelsea got high odds @2.xx, but I still believe that Chelsea will win.
It looks like the bookie really knows what happens in all matches, because on paper, Chelsea should only get @1.xx odds. But what happened was that even Brighton could win big at half time which predictably it was difficult to happen, because the trends of the two teams so far were completely different and even Brighton end the match with an additional goal in the last minute of the match and the final score became 4-1.

Brighton 4 : 1  Chelsea

Today's most interesting match is between Brighton and Chelsea. Chelsea lost 4-1. Chelsea has been in very good form recently. So probably no one expected such a result in this match. The most important thing is that in this match two own goals were scored due to mistakes by Chelsea players. Ruben Loftus-Cheek scored an own goal in the 14th minute and Trevoh Chalobha made the same mistake in the 42nd minute, and give Brighton a 3-0 lead in the first half. Chelsea could not return to the truck in this match due to falling behind so much in the first half.
Chelsea lost the match only because of the poor performance of their defenders. Conceding 3 goals in the first half only dampened the confidence of the Chelsea players. As a result, they could not perform well in the second half.
