Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Dewi Aries]

I agree with you’ll that yesterday's game was played very well by Manchester United, and that’s despite missing their regular defenders and putting Shaw as a makeshift CB they yet managed to win which says how well Ten Hag is training this squad. Furthermore Rashford seems to be in fine form, and if Martial can remain injury free then we can expect to see Manchester United finish second or third by the time this season end’s.

Overall Manchester United played well but this cannot be used as a benchmark that they are back on track because their opponent is Nottingham
However Nottingham is not an equal opponent for Man United they have to prove it against stronger teams one of them is the match against Manchester City in mid-January.

Most of the top teams were on their best way just Tottenham were not good as expected, but things are looking impressive after the break for all top teams because we have too many goals from all teams and Arsenal and Newcastle United were also on their usual business with now we have last match between Leeds United vs Manchester City which is also looking easy on papers for the Citizens because they are also at their best after break in their first game of the EFL Cup.

The season is still long enough for Tottenham to participate in top four and end inside it. Their main attacking players Kane and Son had problems in this season. They had bad performances even before World Cup 2022 and in that tournament, their performances are not good too.

With appearance of Newcastle United and Arsenal in top four, it is very competitive to get a position in this top range. Tottenham, Chelsea, Manchester United will have to compete with Newcastle United for only two positions left. The first two positions likely will belong to Arsenal and Manchester City.

Chelsea surely change their formation and change of luck as well with first win after five games which is good for them because now they are preparing for their first challenge which is going to happen on 5th January against Manchester City and this could be very important for them as well because in case of lost most chances they will be dropped and losing their chance for the top four spot as well.

Chelsea are like other big clubs except Arsenal and Manchester City, they have unstable performance in this season. Formations, injuries, internal conflicts which are all not good factors for Chelsea in Premier League 2022 - 2023. As discussed, with this high competitive league, it's hard for Chelsea to end within top four if they make too many mistakes.

You are right. more possession of the ball is not a guarantee. but it seems MU can put it to good use. and the temporary score is 1-0 in favor of Manchester United. what a quick goal. But the game time is still long. it's still early enough to rejoice. But I feel confident with MU for this game.

Manchester united is already leading Nottingham with 2-0, we are just in first half and Manchester united have being able to secure two goals already, I don't think Nottingham has anything to do again, Manchester united is in possession of the game and the are still leading with two goals, I knew it will be a easy win for Manchester united, but sometimes you don't have to underestimate some clubs. We are still in first half, I know anything can happen since they still have long way to go, but am now confident that Manchester united is going to win the match and am still expecting more goals from Manchester united.

Great win last night now it's time to rest, recover and go harder with the game against Wolverampton on Sunday, Six more clean sheets to make De Gea the highest clean sheet holder for  Manchester United as he currently sits second on the list.
It gladdens me that Erik Ten Hag is a good coach who knows what he's doing all he needs right now is for Manchester United to provide him with the quality players he desires.

Big Applause to Marcus Rashford, Tony Martial and Pastor Fred all for making me hose three goals come. My Man of the match should go to Casemiro he brings so much quality in that midfield. It's an honor working with such a player.

It's true that the success of beating Nottingham cannot be used as a reference that Man United has performed better and will continue to perform well, it's just that it's enough for them to be able to get 3 points and also prove that they are no longer a team that is easily beaten even by a weak team like Nottingham.

The Manchester Derby is indeed a very beautiful thing to look forward to, but considering their match (Manchester Derby) which takes place in mid-January next year, I personally will focus more on Manchester City's match for today with Leeds United. Even though if you look at it head to head, Leeds United is also not a very strong opponent this season, so there is a possibility that Manchester City will win the game without getting more pressure from Leeds United.

Yes it is clear Manchester City will not miss any points as they have a new competitor in the standings. Just look at Newcastle taking over the 2nd place even if only temporarily but they can be a threat. Note that Newcastle is a team that has recorded a perfect 5 wins in the last 5 matches therefore Manchester City have no reason to draw or lose.

[MAAManda]

Chelsea needs to be more clinical in their finishing. They played incredibly well in the first half, but because James was injured and couldn't play in the second, they played horribly. Chelsea prevailed in nearly every game James played. Chelsea seems to lose or draw a match if James is not featured in the match. If Chelsea wants to top the Premier League table, they must find a better James substitute.

There is a lot for Chelsea as a whole to improve on if they are to rejoin the teams at the top. I was quite disappointed to see their performance in the first half of the season, but even so, it looks like we will see their performance improve in the second half of the season. Do you think Chelsea can finish in the top 5 at the end of the season? I think that if they can be in the top 5, it's only a matter of time and the consistency of their good performances.

Well done Erik Ten Hag for giving us world class performances from the team. In this game, all of them played well. But special mention goes to Casemiro, who to me is the best CDM in the world now. Also, I enjoy watching him play along with Bruno and Eriksen in the midfield. Good to see Rashford has found his form and he's just amazing. I will not forget the confident finish from Anthony Martial, he did well.

Chelsea has a lot of chance to enter into the top 5 but i would not even consider chelsea has been found its best performance again caused by chelsea was winning a single match against a weak team like bournemouth. I will wait for more matches to be passed by chelsea and we will able to judge whether chelsea has a big or small chance to enter into the top 5.The team like newcastle was string to rise caused by it has been acquired by the new owner.
The opposite thing happened with chelsea. I meant look at what happened with the team. The performance from chelsea under the new owner became even worst than before. It seems like new owner has failed to change the club to be even better.

Nottingham Forest was not a strong team. They are a team in the relegation zone. It was easily predicted that Manchester United will win this match. And United won easily. If United are to qualify for the Champions League, they will need to maintain a consistent performance. It is impossible to stay in the top four of the points table without winning consistently.

The form shown by Manchester United is now slowly finding its game, even though they get this form because their opponents are much weaker. But this is a good start if we compare it to the start of the season where they lost to a team that couldn't be considered a strong team.
I see that too, that their midfielders are slowly finding good chemistry that will bring their game even better. This is what they have to maintain and improve if they want them to be included in a team ready to fight for the title.

[Issa56]

I also expected more goals in this game. because from the start my prediction was at least 3-0 to win Manchester United.

Your prediction was correct yesterday, Manchester united was able to secure 3 goals just as your said, Manchester united performed well in their match yesterday, I knew Nottingham couldn't win Manchester united, but no club should be underestimated that was why I was having little faith in Nottingham.
Manchester united are already in 5th position on the table, which I believe if they continue with their performance, then we should expect them to move up on the table. Manchester united will be playing against Wolves in their next match, i don't think it will be a tough match for Manchester united.

On this one I agree and that is the most important thing where each player finds a match with each other
Another interesting thing is that 3 goals were scored by different players I mean it doesn't depend on one player
Of course it will be positive if they do it in every game including against Manchester City in the upcoming match.

[Sebas.tian]

Manchester city VS Needs united will not going to be a tough match, because we saw what happened in the first match that made Manchester united, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal to achieved their three points from their matches, which Manchester city will definitely achieve three points to increase their points in this match. Need can struggle to achieve single goal but they cannot stop Manchester city not to achieve victory from this match, because Haaland will definitely achieve three goals from this first match after FIFA world cup to make their fans happy.

[TheGreatPython]

Chelsea have been losing points in their last four league games. After coming back from the World Cup, they got a nice win in the league, which they really needed. There were problems with scoring goals. On the second goal today, Mounth scored one of his favorite goals. It didn't seem like much of a problem, Chelsea had a very enthusiastic and result-oriented style of play in the game today. They get points next week, because their opponent is Forest, the next week's work is really up to chance.

Chelsea will most likely be seven by the next round since they have an easier opponent, Nottingham, comparing to the opponent of Brighton which is Arsenal!
Liverpool should normally win vs Leicester so they could maintain their position.
Interestingly, Chelsea will play 2 games vs City in January, 5 and 8 in EPL and FA Cup respectively. In these games, we will see if Chelsea is healed or not

In 2022, we will have not big been changing in League table as just one round remaining and mostly big teams will win their respective matches, but after January 5 things could be changed as we have Chelsea will be hosted Manchester City and Arsenal will host Newcastle United important matches for the top rank teams even most chances we will have Manchester City as winner from one match and second can end with Arsenal win or draw because they are doing good even Newcastle United is also playing fearless game and have good intention to stay into top four which could be amazing for them and their management.

Liverpool is also having few easy games which is good for them because these games will give them good practice and confidence for the big games which are also coming against Chelsea, and then we have Champions League knock out matches in February as well.

Good game indeed but it's not enough for Casemiro to be called as the best defensive midfielder in the world, even in EPL. We shouldn't forget how he was struggling in his first games and made many mistakes by giving the opponent teams the opportunity to score. This time he just got an advantage where none of Nottingham midfielders played well and matched him.

For me, we should appreciate Wan-Bissaka more. Just remember on how ten Hag was trying to get rid of him by not giving him a single chance to play. In that game, he had 2 of 3 successful tackles, 84% pass accuracy, and 1 interception. If I'm Diogo Dalot, I must be worried now.

[jostorres]

Well, Tottenham is a team that is getting better and better, I don't know but at one point it was going through a very bad time, in fact there was a lot of speculation until they changed their technical director, and this is something that can happen, however If they tied, it's because they aren't so bad, after this vacation, after a controversial World Cup, it's good that they have this type of resource to recover.

I am one of those who think that Tottenham can give one of the best surprises for this season, I believe that many errors could have already been completely fixed and it is better, because if they improve the level of football will increase.

No doubt they are getting better and better but still they are missing something which is bringing them down in league table with their first game against Brentford they have done good fight after going down by 2 goals but still they need few changes which help them for having better results in Premier League because if they are not able to perform better than surely now two teams are ready to bring them down at sixth or seventh spot with their improvement performance and quality now in next two games they can win as they have opponents like Aston Villa and Crystal Palace, but after these things could be challenging as they will be host Arsenal and then visiting Manchester City which is not easy, and they have to win these games if they want alive for the spot of Champions League in next season.
 
With things could be tough and tougher for them because in February they are going to visit San Siro for their first match of the round of 16 in Champions League against AC Milan even I am expecting better results in Champions League, but Premier League is looking not easy for them in this season for having spot into top four.

Overall Manchester United played well but this cannot be used as a benchmark that they are back on track because their opponent is Nottingham
However Nottingham is not an equal opponent for Man United they have to prove it against stronger teams one of them is the match against Manchester City in mid-January.

Not at all a worthy opponent of Manchester United because the game of Marcus Rashford and friends who entered the starting eleven played well including those who came off the bench were able to score goals. If Manchester United are only able to win 1 goal let alone end up losing, then United can be called a club that cannot beat a weak team like Nottingham.

Every club that Manchester United will face in the Premier League is a test for them to return to the championship path. No exception, starting from the bottom, middle to top teams for us it is a challenge to get the best results.

We're delighted with the Red Devils' boxing day result and we're excited for the new year.

The Man City vs Leeds United game should be a plus one for Man City, but I do not like to be too relaxed in football like you portray it here. Anything could happen in football, so it should not be as if the opponent is totally useless. And the word "Definitely" you used for Haaland seems like he is a god that knows exactly what he would achieve in the game. This is too much for a mortal man. Man City is my preference to win too, but your expectation seems too high.

Well i guess i would say its normal for a football fan to actually speak so highly of his club and have a total 100% believe in his team winning the game but sometimes the results actually turns out differently. But for the case of Manchester city and leeds united game it Normal that we all have such feeling towards the game as Manchester City are far better than leeds are currently in a very good form, but i think no actually knows how many goals haaland would score but i think he might grab a goal or two against leeds united.
