Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[samcoin]

As you stated, history has shown that Manchester City has only won 46 games against Liverpool.

Indeed, Liverpool is out of form; they have not been consistent at all this season; they require significant improvement in their squad; they must add more players in order to overcome their current poor performance; otherwise, they will miss out on European competitions such as the Champions League and the Europa League next season.

Liverpool made many achievments in the past years so it's normal for any club to go under rebuilding process for one or two seasons. Actually, they are targeting many players and have a strategy that focus on young players from outside the Premier League like Enzo Fernandez from Benfica, Ismael Bennacer from Milan and many others.

History cannot be repeated, what happened today Manchester City is better than Liverpool. Liverpool's defeat to Manchester City will be a big lesson for Klopp, his team is currently not strong enough to compete at the top. The transfer market can be used to build a team, at least being able to finish fourth is good enough for Liverpool this season. The league will start soon, Klopp must mentally prepare his players to win the first EPL match after the international break.

Last night's match was quite tough, the two teams attacked each other and drew with the same score 2 - 2 but Man City's decisive goal was scored by Nathan Ake in the 58th minute taking advantage of an assist from Kevin De Bruyne while changing the scoreboard to 3 - 2 until the last minute. Jurgen Klopp was hit hard by this result, Liverpool still can't match Man City this season, homework is getting harder to face other strong teams in the EPL.

[Slow death]

I think Liverpool fans are just giving excuses for their loss as they see it as an advantage to focus more on other competition like the premiere league and champions league. Through out the beginning of the season Liverpool have been struggling to be consistent in terms of their performance and have lost matches that i supposed would even be counted  as easy wins for them. So yesterday loss at the hands of Manchester city was expected as the winning team was so much better in performance than Liverpool. I don't think Liverpool is going to challenge Manchester City and arsenal for the title this season, the absence of sadio mane in the team has affected Liverpool and the faster they adjust the better for them because the second half of the premier league is about to start and I don't think arsenal who is currently leading the table have any plans of leaving there anytime soon.

I agree with you on this. Liverpool has lost in matches that were supposed to be bonus wins for them, and they are not consistent in their form. But let me put it to you that no matter how poor Liverpool is, when once they meet Manchester city, they will be bent on either taking a win or a draw. History has it that Liverpool is Manchester city's greatest Rival, 81 wins and 46 draws from 173 meetings could tell you how far Liverpool is from Manchester city. I think presently they are suffering a loss of the African giant  "Mane".I pray they recover soon.

liverpool is a strong team, they were just unlucky that some of their best players were injured, i'm talking about their strikers, but this is something that happens to many teams, now what liverpool manager needs to do is just try to create a strategy that manages to make the team stable, for example he can put roberto firmino + Salah + Darwin Núñez in the attack that will get a good result, but even when doing that the liverpool coach needs to deal with the problem in the midfield and on defense

for example from the liverpool game against city, the first goal that liverpool conceded, the defenders simply left haaland alone, and of course haaland did not waste the opportunity, in the second goal that liverpool conceded, Riyad Mahrez was alone, of course that he would not waste this opportunity, and the third goal once again the liverpool defense was very bad, Nathan Aké came in the back of the liverpool defenders and scored a goal, I think that the liverpool coach just needs to improve in defense and in the midfield

They are not unlucky but they are responsible for their player injuries. If it is one or two players, it is unlucky but if it occurs with many players, their club have issues with medical and health care for their players.

They must investigate about it, fix loopholes of their health care and prevent many injuries in future. A team want to fight trophies must be healthy, immuned with injuries as much as possible.

The past season impacts Liverpool in this season too. Because in my opinion, their players played many overwhelming matches in the past season and they did not have enough recovery time in summer. That caused more injuries than usual, more than in previous seasons.

The defeat to Manchester City proved that the current Liverpool squad is very difficult to compete with. I have seen Klopp rotate his formation several times but the results are still not satisfactory. If Liverpool targets to finish in the Champions League zone, then they must bring in several new players. Klopp must realize that the "golden era" of The Reds is over, some of his mainstay players in the past few seasons have started to decline.

[alpamar99]

Didn't watch the match so can't judge whether Liverpool played badly judging from the score I don't think Liverpool played badly but yes quite disappointed to see the results of this match but hopefully it won't affect their next appearance in the League or in the Champions League because those two tournaments should be Liverpool's focus at this time

You can check match statistics in livescore from my observation Manchester City far dominated the match
Manchester City 18 shots and Liverpool 7 shoots so Manchester City deserved to win even though it almost ended in a draw

Although city has been dominating the match but liverpool has a very good accuracy. It can be seen from two goals from 7 shots compared with three goals and 18 shots. The match is so equal between one to the each other.
City has become a winner. Liverpool has been trying so hard to force the match become draw. Im glad to see that if liverpool was doing everything to make the match become draw. A worthy match to be watched.

I didn't see that, the 7 shots that were taken were only 2 that were on target and both of them resulted in goals, but this doesn't mean the accuracy is good because they still have some shortcomings there. but the good thing is that they were able to withstand some strong attacks with formations and the slightly improved performance of Nunez and Salah in this match, hopefully this can be a good enough start for Liverpool to be able to prepare for their performance in the League later.

I think quite the opposite, Klopp looked more willing to try and exploit his players in this game and most likely this was intended to set up a scheme to be even better than before regardless of how they did in this game actually that was a very good thing for Liverpool I flavor.
But indeed they still have to prepare the conditions of the defense and midfield now.

Jurgen Klopp was hit hard by this result, Liverpool still can't match Man City this season, homework is getting harder to face other strong teams in the EPL.

The depth of Manchester City's squad can really be relied on, they have successfully carried out the role as a substitute. Phil Foden and Joao Cancelo started off the bench, as they were not yet in their prime condition. Erling Haaland, Riyad Mahrez and Nathan Ake managed to score one goal each for Manchester City's victory, while De Bruyne managed to provide two assists in the victory.

Liverpool did not perform optimally, Darwin Nunez did not show his best quality, while Fabio Carvalho and Mohamed Salah managed to equalize, but in the 58th minute Nathan Ake managed to score one goal while bringing Manchester City to victory and get full points.

With man city win yesterday the cup will be now one of their main objectives, they eliminated two of the contenders in two games which will make it easier for them i doubt the remaining teams will be able to stop them and am saying it after seeing how good they played yesterday despite the small win i think they were much better than liverpool.

Of all the finalists in this round, only Manchester United and Manchester City have a high chance of becoming champions. And in comparison, Manchester City has a bigger chance than Manchester United. this will be a competition between the Manchester duo for who is more deserving of becoming the champion later. Almost of the 2 opponents they faced looked like they would be easy to beat in this round.

The result from the match can be considered as a way to determine which better from both in the last match. i think that the possible thing for city to face MU in the final and that's gonna be a hyped match between both of manchester teams.
I would like to see that the manchester derby in carabao cup. That's gonna be epic match as united was also on fire with rashford has become the best replacement for ronaldo. City was always relying with KDB and haaland while united has rashford and some good players. I hope that manchester derby in final gonna be real.

Although last night's match was quite tough, in terms of the game. it is very clear, Liverpool is having a hard time keeping up with the game from Manchester City. I think this defeat can be a very meaningful lesson for Jurgen Klopp, for him to improve in the future. the course of the match, The Citizen completely dominated the game. in fact they had a lot of chances, based on existing statistics, City had 18 shots, 9 of which were on target and 6 shots off target.

let's compare with what Liverpool has, they only had 7 shots, 2 of which were on target and 4 shots off target. on the other hand, Liverpool experienced some progress even though they had to be beaten by Manchester City. Liverpool still looks weak in the midfield, especially Stefan Bajcetic and Harvey Elliott. and again, Jurgen Klopp cannot rely solely on Darwin Nunez, whose performance is not showing any better.

there is still time, at least Liverpool can still bring in some newcomers in the upcoming January transfer window. Like it or not, Klopp must bring his troops to finish in the top four of the Premier League. if not, I'm sure Klopp's career with The Red will be over.

of course manchester city is better than liverpool because i have hope also manchester city apart from winning the EFL cup, at least they also won the EPL and the Champions League this season because i saw the development of how to play manchester city which was pretty good yesterday beating liverpool

The EFL Cup competition is not every team's top priority, but this event can be interesting when the top Premier League teams meet. In addition, EFL matches can be a place to test a team's readiness ahead of returning to play in the Premier League.

Manchester City managed to beat Liverpool, this shows the strength of The Citizens is still quite solid and of course it is very important to maintain team morale. If you see the strength shown by Manchester City, I'm sure they will win the Premier League again this season.

Liverpool not priority with EFL Cup and eliminated early make them have many time for taking rest than Manchester City will have busy match schedule later, actually when EFL Cup result draw will play for second leg. I think Liverpool have focus with Primer League right now after have bad started and left many points from  Arsenal.

Next match Liverpool against Aston Villa and Manchester City have away against Leeds United, still not with positive trend for Liverpool because have out from UCL position standing right now. Manchester City still have back to top performance after remaining 5 points from Arsenal have consistency performance and managed top standing position.

I don't agree with your assumption, every competition they participate in should be important and also a priority. It's true that the EFL Cup isn't bigger than the Premier League and Champions League, but that doesn't mean these competitions aren't important to win. To be honest, I don't really like that kind of assumption when big team seem to lose to qualify for the quarter-finals.

Manchester City still have back to top performance after remaining 5 points from Arsenal have consistency performance and managed top standing position.

The league is still long, changing positions in the standings is still very possible. Of course Manchester City needs to improve their form to stay close to Arsenal, they need to win match and that will open up more opportunities to take the top spot from Arsenal.

Jurgen Klopp seems to be focusing on the Champions League Zone not focusing on the championship, because the point difference which is very far from the top of the standings has made that hope disappear, The Reds' golden age has indeed ended after Mane's departure to Bayern Münche, it is very clear that the difficulties of their attackers are  is no longer young like M. Salah, the game is clear that this player has declined, of course Liverpool will have to buy several new players in the next January market, in order to help Liverpool's attack power this season, the presence of new players will make Liverpool stronger  on the defensive side want their midfield players and attackers who have a goal machine..

This is going to be important game for the Tottenham because now they are having tough competition for the stay into top four Newcastle United already at third and Manchester United is also improving day by day which will create challenge in case of lost most chances they could be dropped in near future with few other teams are having eye to touch their spot no doubt Harry Kane could be still in dilemma even he is professional and understand the realities but surely now playing after this missed penalty is not easy with having challenging game.

Brentford are improving their performance, and they will be not easy team for Tottenham even most chances visitors could be in better position but still a gape and many other circumstances are having their own impact on players as well.

This week can be an opportunity for Tottenham to take back the third position from Newcastle as well. Because Newcastle don't have an easy task to perform. They are going to play against Leicester away. We all have seen how much Leicester started to improve their performance recently. While they are on rise they wouldn't give in against Newcastle that easy.

Newcastle are of course in a wonderful condition but we will see if they will be able to show the same quality performance as of now as well. They would surely stumble at a point after a great winning streak. Maybe it could be this game.

I don't see Newcastle dropping points anytime soon because with the kind of players they have and the kind of team spirit in the camp at the moment,their main target is to remain in the top four or better still,win the premier league.Anything is possible in football,they might be waiting for just a slide from Arsenal to close up the gap they have between them,Manchester city and Arsenal.
Although I know this will be impossible to do but we can't just rule it out,whereas Tothenham are behind Newcastle and want to overtake them by all means,but with the way I'm seeing things the season, Newcastle might finish above Totthenham,Liverpool,and Chelsea.

I didn't watch this match, but if you look at the statistical records in the match, it looks like Manchester City are playing better than Liverpool.
Regarding the trophies that will be won by Manchester City, they have the opportunity to get 3 trophies this season, especially in the EFL they are the biggest favorites to become champions, followed by Manchester United below them. This is one of their opportunities to get that achievement.

Newcastle's performances this season have surprised everyone. No one expected this team to finish third in the points table. And perhaps only one match they have lost this season. There is no star player in the team. However, their players are consistently performing well. The bonding between the players is very strong. This is why they have been able to maintain consistency.
Newcastle is aiming for a top-four finish. I think they will try to strengthen their squad in the winter transfer. As they now have a lot of money, and their performance is now much more stable compared to previous seasons. So they will probably try to add the now talented star players to the squad.

December 26, 2022 The English Premier League is back. Every club continues to prepare for the next match of the season. Every player who played for their respective national teams at the 2022 World Cup seems to have returned to the club and has been training together even though some clubs have already played matches in the Carabao Cup.

Here are some of the matches that will be presented this week:

• Brenford vs Tottenham
• Cystal Palace vs Fulham
• Everton vs Wolves
• Leicester vs Newcastle
• Southampton vs Brighton
• Aston Villa vs Liverpool
• Arsenal vs West Ham

Surely we have our own analysis and views on matches that are interesting to watch. But among the matches above, the Arsenal vs West Ham match will be an interesting match in my opinion.
