Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[jostorres]

Tomorrow, Liverpool has to play a match with Aston Villa, I see that a lot of players Liverpool will miss out this game, to the injured that missed the match with City: Firmino, Jota and Diaz Louis, Milner will also join, it's significant losses. Liverpool passes goals in almost every match, this match should not be an exception, but Liverpool are good in attack so both teams will score.

Even on papers Liverpool is very strong side, and they can do good against Aston Villa but now after arrival of Emery Aston Villa performance is impressive, and they can give tough challenge even both teams are missing their few star players but still it's never been easy game for both for full three points which are important for the Liverpool because they are currently at sixth and in case of lost any point they can drop from this position as well which will be not good for them.

As Chelsea and Manchester United both are putting their full strength for the European competitions and Liverpool is also already have not good start of the season with their average performance, hopefully now they will be improved and have better results.

Can it be really the time for Leicester to rise and climb the positions one by one?

Because they have looked just like that in the recent times of the league. They have made a big improvement in defense which has brought about a good streak for them. They conceded only 1 goal lately which is really amazing. We don't know if they will be able to keep the same motivation level by their first league match after the break. Their opponent is Newcastle which is one of the toughest challenges at the moment. But unless Leicester lose their focus I still believe that they can steal at least one point here.

I won't really underrate the boys of Rodgers. Then I still feel like they have not well prepared for this second phase battle. When you look at the defence of Liecester you will understand that 3 notable persons are missing.
Even in the midfield you will understand that Maddison appearance is not also guaranteed. The major strong additions to the team are Ndidi and Teilemans.
We know how strong the Newcastle team is.
It will be an interesting match.

I haven't checked Liverpool news lately but I think their injured players must be recovered by now. If so, then I think Liverpool can bounce back and climb up the table. They are definitely a great squad and can easily beat Aston Villa at its current state. Liverpool should be targetting to atleast make it into top 4 and I think this is the perfect point to start climbing up the table. Hopefully there aren't any those moments where they are beaten by underdogs as it will drag them down further on the table.

I see Kevin De Bruyne as the most important player in Manchester City, even more important than their highest goal scorer of this season who just joined them. In games where Kevin does not play for them, his absence in the team is usually largely felt. He is Pep Guardiola's greatest assets in the team amidst  the many talented players the teams has in all positions. When I hear of teams that need players, I do not count Manchester City because I see them as a very balanced team that is not lacking even in their substitute list. It is a great team that Pep has assembled. Their first game is against Leeds United and based on their team form, that game should not be a difficult game for them to win.

Manchester City relies on collectivity in playing, so that all the players they have are quite developed and not a single player stands out. Pep Guardiola is a typical coach who likes to play tiki-taka and is able to mix the Premier League style of play that relies on speed, so many of Manchester City's new recruits adapted quickly. Not only Kevin De Bruyne, many other players also played an important role in every victory.

Leeds United is not a formidable opponent for Manchester City, because the quality of the players is far different from the strength that Manchester City has, but the Premier League is so competitive that if Manchester City let their guard down, Leeds United will punish them at the Elland Road stadium.

I stand with what you have said that Kelvin DE Bruyne is the most important player in Manchester city. It didn't start today, it started since 4 seasons ago.
Kelvin creates 80% of the chances that hands Haaland goals. Haaland himself acknowledged it.
Generally the team is balanced and should be able to win Leeds but I have long stopped to underrate any club in Epl no matter where their position is in EPL table.

Brentford FC VS Tottenham Hotspur FC

The stake odds for this game are 3.55 for Brentford, 3.70 for Draw, and 2.50 for Tottenham, Right now Aaron Hickey had an Ankle Injury, and could be back until the end of December, while Richarlison and Ryan Sessegnon have injuries and can not play also Pierre-Emile Höjbjerg is suspended, well even though Pierre-Emile Höjbjerg is suspended for me Tottenham still could win this,

I just realized that several Tottenham players have been injured. I want to find out this news to reconsider my bet, because sometimes Brentford is a difficult opponent to predict, even though Tottenham can still be favourites.
Even though Harry Kane is still up front, Conte still needs Richarlison as a partner on the front lines with Kane.

Leicester City FC VS Newcastle United FC

The stake odds for this game are 3.25 for Leicester, 3.55 for the draw, and 2.22 for Newcastle, right now Ricardo Pereira and Ryan Bertrand can not play for Leicester, while  right now Emil Krafth can not play for Newcastle United, right now Newcastle United are going strong, for me, my pick is Newcastle United,

Newscatle are now almost on top they made a good win in their previous clash and I am sure against Leicester it will also be a win again to keep the table close to Manchester City.
With odds of 2.22 it's still decent enough to own Newscatle, for me it's not enough to be a big risk.

[dezoel]

Premier league starts tomorrow. The most notable match will be played between Leicester and Newcastle United. Both teams are in great form. Bookies see Newcastle United as favourites, even though Leicester plays at home. We can show the match between Arsenal and Westham United in the London derby as a tough match. Arsenal will most likely win the game but I think it will be difficult.

As usual big Boxing Day is coming, and we are going to have too many matches in Premier League which are going to have full action and entertainment for the fans around the world after very long break few big matches which are surely going to have big impact like Aston Villa vs Liverpool, Leicester City vs Newcastle United and Arsenal vs West Ham most of the fans are having eyes on these matches because things are crucial and results surely going to have big impact on Premier League in coming weeks as well.

Newcastle United surely have impressive season, and they are currently at third spot which is indicating their performance before break with just one lost in fourteen matches and overall their record against Leicester City is also good hopefully we will have action packed start for these both clubs with Leicester City will try to have better end at home on Boxing Day.

[Gosgosking]

Liverpool should still have enough depth and quality to be considered favorites to win tomorrow. Only Diaz is a first 11 player, so there are no excuses.

We need a win and we need to get our season back on track. I have missed club football and am looking forward to seeing my team play again. I just hope we start well enough.

We really do need a win, brother. Villa’s goalkeeper Martinez is still in Argentina partying somewhere so that’s good for us. Their number 2 goalkeeper is nowhere near as good as Martinez. We’ve been average most of the season but I really hope the World Cup break has helped us & we can go up a couple of gears now.

Martinez Emiliano the Argentina's goalkeeper is too good that he is capable of saving every shot coming to the net, this may be problem for Liverpool to win the match. Aston villa has quality goalkeeper that matters alot .

[Zanab247]

 Liverpool VS Aston villa game tomorrow will determine if Liverpool will achieve something good before the end of this tournament because, their performance in some friendly games really made them to performed well which people will like to expect such performance from them in this game. I know, Aston villa will fight for draw game but Liverpool defenders will not allow such to happen than to make their defense strong for their strikers to score two goals that will give them victory at the end of the game.

It looks like Liverpool have started to bounce back, it's just that they haven't been able to be consistent in their game and hopefully Liverpool can beat Aston Villa at home. And the bad news, Aston Villa is unlikely to be strengthened by Emiliano Martinez, their main goalkeeper who just won the World Cup here with Argentina. And in other words, their strength would be incomplete.
and if you look at the track record of the two Liverpool teams winning their last four meetings with Aston Villa and hopefully this will continue, and hopefully those who were injured in the World Cup yesterday recover quickly because the victory must be won by Loverpool so that it will be easier to continue to the top 4.

the world cup break should have been made by leicester players as a moment to train their abilities more because they will face newcastle who is currently ranked 3rd with 30 points

apart from that, the match between leicester and newcastle will take place at home to leicester, so they should take advantage of that to be able to win elegantly at home

Liverpool running speed must be increased to return to the top four, Klopp will not repeat the same mistake as when he lost to Manchester City in the EFL Cup. The material the players have must give good performance when playing games away at Villa Park, a win will give confidence to Liverpool players. Klopp's squad is enough to help Liverpool get an additional three points in the first match after the break, I really want to see Liverpool return to winning ways in the EPL.

Even start is not good for the Liverpool after break but now in Premier League they could be at their best and will try to have better results even they still have long list of injured players, but surely these could be manageable for them and now as we all know we are going to have few changes in coming weeks these could be also impressive and bring positive results right now first target is having spot near the top four which is not easy with three teams are already having amazing stuff and for the one spot four teams are fighting hard which are currently on the same level of quality.

Jürgen is also looking for the change of performance and luck as well because any worst result could be not acceptable, but few things are clear in last two season injuries having big impact on performance which is surely bad and with this we can't fight with luck as well.

Manchester City relies on collectivity in playing, so that all the players they have are quite developed and not a single player stands out. Pep Guardiola is a typical coach who likes to play tiki-taka and is able to mix the Premier League style of play that relies on speed, so many of Manchester City's new recruits adapted quickly. Not only Kevin De Bruyne, many other players also played an important role in every victory.

Pep Guardiola is one of the most successful coaches so far that has made Manchester City win a number of titles. He has dominated the Premier League since taking over at Manchester City, it is his coaching genius.

Sometimes the team's game strategy has problems because of the difficulty in scoring goals, but this season he has a very lethal weapon and that is Haaland. You know, Haaland unstopable right now, and Haaland has scored 18 gol in 13 appearance in the Premier League.

Leeds United is not a formidable opponent for Manchester City, because the quality of the players is far different from the strength that Manchester City has, but the Premier League is so competitive that if Manchester City let their guard down, Leeds United will punish them at the Elland Road stadium.

Leeds doesn't seem like a big deal for Manchester City, but don't underestimate anyone. Manchester City won several matches recently including a friendly and also the game against Liverpool in the EFL Cup. Haaland scored goals in those two matches, as well as proving his ability that was never doubted by people.

[3meek]

Crystal Palace have played well in recent friendlies, but I think Fulham will win the upcoming match... Bookmakers are giving great odds of 3.6 for them to win... Although they won away against Crystal Palace last time 9 years ago, judging by their last games against Man U and Man City, Fulham can show good football... I'm sure the start of the second half of the season will be full of surprises...

[gabbie2010]

Liverpool VS Aston villa game tomorrow will determine if Liverpool will achieve something good before the end of this tournament because, their performance in some friendly games really made them to performed well which people will like to expect such performance from them in this game. I know, Aston villa will fight for draw game but Liverpool defenders will not allow such to happen than to make their defense strong for their strikers to score two goals that will give them victory at the end of the game.

The temporary pause of the league will affect the performance of both teams so the match outcome between Liverpool vs Aston Villa is dicey both team might not likely has a full squad as a result of injuries, lack of match fitness of some players, personally I am not sure who will win the match may be a draw because Liverpool has been very in consistent this season moreso appointment of Unai Emery has really improved the performance of Aston Villa lately thus it's going to be a very competitive and explosive match and expecting both team to try and win the match.

Newscatle are now almost on top they made a good win in their previous clash and I am sure against Leicester it will also be a win again to keep the table close to Manchester City.
With odds of 2.22 it's still decent enough to own Newscatle, for me it's not enough to be a big risk.

This two games are the most tricky. Brentford against Tottenham is tricky because Brentford loves scoring especially Ivan Toney and Tottenham have been sluggish in defence against weaker teams. Brentford produces upset against top teams but if Conte can have his full attacking players available then I see them winning it.

The game between Leicester and Newcastle is game between two different teams this season. Newcastle will like to get back to where they left off before world Cup and Leicester will want to put the sluppy start behind them. I will predict a goal goal draw

[Coyster]

Martinez Emiliano the Argentina's goalkeeper is too good that he is capable of saving every shot coming to the net, this may be problem for Liverpool to win the match. Aston villa has quality goalkeeper that matters alot .

Lol, Martinez is definitely not going to be between the sticks tomorrow, WC finalists/winners get extra days off (10/12 days after the final i guess), but even if he was going to be in goal tomorrow it doesn't mean he wouldn't get beaten, i mean, he is a good goalkeeper no doubt about that, but i don't think he is anything close to world class, and even world class goalkeepers get beaten many times when they are left exposed.

Having said that, the best goalkeepers often keep for the best teams, and they concede fewer goals because they have a strong team/defense and they hold the ball more often than not, leaving them exposed only a few times of which they will save some and concede a few. But a goalkeeper in a small team would be exposed many times and will concede many goals no matter how good they are, if Martinez was to keep tomorrow, it won't stop Liverpool from scoring more than two goals, because they will definitely control the game, open up Villa and have many shots at their goal.

[sana54210]

Liverpool are the favorites to win that match, but of course the Reds shouldn't underestimate their opponent Aston Villa. The Unai Emery factor could make it difficult for Liverpool, the proof is that since taking over the coaching baton from Steven Gerrard, Emery has proven his ability to beat Manchester United.

But apart from that, Liverpool must win the full points. Because if you lose again, Liverpool's chances of advancing to the top flight will be tightly closed.

Liverpool is in a danger spot and they can't afford to lose a single point from now on, they have to not only win against Aston Villa, but it doesn't if it's Arsenal or City they play against, they have to win a lot of points for a long time. Only after they reach top 4 easily enough, and not within 3 points with 5th team they could maybe start losing points, that way they would at least guarantee UCL.

Right now, they are seriously not good enough to be in top 4 and go to UCL, and that is not acceptable for the last years finalist to be fair. Let's hope they work and do better, I can't say much about what is going to happen but I think it should be an easy win.

Hopefully there aren't any those moments where they are beaten by underdogs as it will drag them down further on the table.

Liverpool are expected to have a better performance in the second half of this season than in the first half. Most likely they can because so far Nunez seems to have started well in several matches. His adaptation process so far has been hampered due to a lack of understanding of strategy, but right now he seems to be doing well.

As a big and quality team, I don't think Liverpool will ever really have a hard time getting into the top 4 again. They will be able to pull it off, but the Premier League's tough competition may not make it easy. Liverpool will face Aston Villa in week 17, this will be a match they must make good use of to get 3 points.

[Velvet78]

I don't think that Martinez is better than De Gea these days. De Gea is still showing a very consistent performance for Manchester United. I can't talk about that much consistency for Martinez on the other hand. Yeah, his performance at Argentina (especially in the finale) was really amazing. But I can't say that he has been that much impressive in general at Aston Villa so far.

I'm talking about this because there have been some rumours such as Manchester United will replace De Gea with Martinez. I think they should extend with De Gea at least for one more season until finding a better and younger goalkeeper.
