Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Mr.right85]

if you look at some of Manchester United's previous matches when they met Manchester City, they always lost in pretty disastrous conditions, both in the game and in the score.
It's a Derby and the truth is when things are like this of course the hope is that it's a decent game and not as one-sided as it was before.

The first statement cracked my ribs but yet, it's true. For the sake of form and maintaining the teams rhythm in Manchester United, let's hope history be that.

Ten Hag has come some length with his team of late. Even in the FA Cup from yesterday's game, they did manage a 3:1 win over Everton with the ever inform M. Rashford again on the score sheet, even though it was a penalty. Them facing Manchester City in the forth coming game week would be a test of how far they are willing to be in the race for the top 4 although, I don't still see them for a title contender in the league just yet.

I believe that Manchester City will win the game without any problems, even if they are struggling at the moment, but against Manchester United they will perform better and everyone here will agree that if City play well, they will win. Still, it will be an exciting game and I don't think it was Ronaldo's performance that made United bad. They couldn't integrate Ronaldo into the team, that was the problem.

On papers Manchester City is very strong team, but now ground realities are completely different which is giving good chance to Manchester United for having positive end of this derby match because now in last four games they are doing good job and their confidence level is also very high on other side Manchester City is surely struggling because their performance is not up to level which was expecting before break.

This match is not going to be easy for any team because now both are looking for chasing leaders Arsenal which is having five points lead from Manchester City and their next match is against Tottenham which is also fighting back after few poor weeks and lost of their third spot and many points this match could be having good impact on title race as well because Manchester City form could be vital for this all.

Liverpool can play again tonight, that team also plays a lot of games in a few weeks. In this way, new injuries will still be added. And they will have to do without Van Dijk. If they lose at home to Wolverhampton tonight, won't there really be questions about the current policy and the possible appointment of a new trainer?

Jurgen Klopp is contracted at Liverpool until 2026, so winning or losing tonight is not what determines the direction of Jurgen Klopp's future at Liverpool. I think he is a coach who has successfully brought Liverpool one Champions league title, and twice Runner-Up.
However, Liverpool's performance greatly decreased when they lost Sadio Mane. The combination of Sadio Mane, M. Salah and Fabinho is very good at Liverpool. The decision to let go of Sadio Mane may not be right for Liverpool.

[Igebotz]

The way I see Manchester United I think they can play a draw game with Manchester City, Manchester United have much confidence to play with any big team right now. City are capable of winning the game but it won't be easy for them to achieve victory.

Manchester United are absolutely brimming with confidence right now, Rashford and Casemiro are playing at a very high level, and it is safe to say that Erik Ten Hag has found a winning formula for this Manchester United team, City on the other hand aren't at their best right now, they didn't shine so well against Leeds (though they won), struggled to breakdown Everton (which they drew), and just managed to win Chelsea by a lone goal, City are definitely not flying and this might be a good time for Manchester United to play them. Having said that, City won the first leg 6-3 at the Etihad, now they travel to the home of their bitter rivals Old Trafford, and i am pretty sure the fans would be pushing the Red Devils for a welll needed revenge on that day.

Manchester United are in very good form right now, if Chelsea with about 9 first team players out injured could outplay City, then Manchester United could do a better job. Manchester City's heavy rotation is affecting the team, the likes of Walker, Cancelo, and Foden's position is not guaranteed, Pep has been rotating these players since the league resumed and the team's confidence level has dropped now it's either Halaand scores or they team loses,

[püsür]

Manchester United vs Manchester City will be a highly competitive match. Because both teams are very strong. Both the teams have almost equally strong XIs. Both teams will want to secure victory.

This is the most exciting and most awaited match by everyone. Because the match is not only about the strength or performance of the two teams that are seen, but about the mentality that they still want to be the best in the Premier League in every season, so their meeting in the match is what Premier League fans have been waiting for. Apart from that, the two teams are now also in a very good position with a very close point gap in the standings.

Manchester united are good in performance now,  atleast the match will be tough.  It will be a hard game for Manchester City which they will will find it difficult to defeat Manchester United.  The way I see Manchester United I think they can play a draw game with Manchester City, Manchester United have much confidence to play with any big team right now. City are capable of winning the game but it won't be easy for them to achieve victory.

United finally found a coach to lift this team up and Rashford came back. Rashford and Greenwood got us very excited at first. Rashford was out of shape because of the coaches playing the position, and Greenwood was lost by his own stupidity. If Ten Hag gets the transfers he wants and sets up his own team, the United we miss will come back. The rumours about the potential transfers seem good for rest of the season. I don't know how far they can go on Europa League, but they might have a good result this season in the Premier League.

[BitcoinHunt3r]

Manchester United is in better form then City so this will make things a lot more intresting. City needs the win more then Man Utd because they cannot lose points against Arsenal. City still is struggling a lot with the results lately but they know how to play this big matches and i think they might win against City in that match.

When compared based on performance, it is true that Manchester United looks better and consistent clearly Man united is more confident after consecutive wins
But usually in a big match like this the situation will be different not only fighting over points but there is prestige that is maintained so that each team will fight
By the way bookies still favor Manchester City try to check the betting market (Manchester United x 4.40 and Manchester City  x1. is this a trap? Who knows  

[Doell]

There is only one assignment for Manchester United. If Manchester United can claim 3 points from Manchester City you understand that Manchester United can be title winners of English Premier league this season.
Manchester City is there only test and if they pass it, count Manchester United as champions

Arsenal is also in defensive mode to not lose points for the title, if Manchester United can get three points from Manchester City and also from Arsenal next match, maybe they have a high chance for the title. Not only Manchester City and Arsenal even Newcastle are also another test for Manchester United, it will not be easy to win the title and I think the most obvious visible this season is Arsenal for the title.

[Velvet78]

Arsenal's next test is going to be a really challenging one. It is an away game against Tottenham and we will see how serious Arsenal are for the championship once again here. I don't know why but I feel like Arsenal will have a really hard time in this game. Tottenham have been inconsistent recently maybe but this is a different game.

I think Conte will prepare the players well for this game. The Crystal Palace win must be also enough for them to improve their mental and focus on the Arsenal game easier. Arsenal can't beat them in this stadium for nearly 9 years. Tottenham won so many times here as well. Maybe this is the time Arsenal are getting their second loss in the season.

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

Chelsea has a performance that is not too bad and they had some good chances which should have been goals, but they just lacked the finishing touch. This is a difficult period for Chelsea, their ranking dropped, and 2 of their players (Sterling and Pulisic) were injured. Meanwhile, Man City got good results because with this victory they were able to narrow their gap with Arsenal.

Please those two guys have been awful this season for Chelsea and their presence won't be missed. When important players like Kante and Reece James are injuried that's when we feel it in the squad just as we're feeling it now because with this two guys at their best, I doubt Manchester city would have won that game. We played brilliantly but lack the finishing but I'm happy because from the players signed in this January transfer window, I'm expecting that challenge to be a thing of the past.

We play Manchester city again tomorrow in the FA cup and I'm expecting potter to get his revenge because if he doesn't then he has lost my respect and deserve to be sacked. You can't allow Manchester city to defeat you all through the season. They're one of the easiest teams to win (just as we own them at the champions league finals two years back) they play high line so counter is the best way to do that and I won't be surprised if Manchester united uses that to defeat them when they meet.

Why did you give the test to only Manchester City for them to ascertain them of being the winner if they prevail against them. Apart from Manchester City, do you think other teams are undervalued? Manchester United won their first meeting with Arsenal, but I don't see that happening again when they meet for the second leg. Arsenal made some mistakes, which Manchester United exploited to secure a victory over them. Another meeting between these two teams would be difficult to predict who would win the match. Both teams are in excellent form, and I see Arsenal as a significant challenge to Manchester United, which must also be put to test by them in order to certify them as champions.

Another bad result for liverpool. It was getting draw against wolves. The performance from liverpool has been degrading a lot. There was a very huge difference between liverpool and wolves but wolves was able to making the match to be draw. I think that people aware about how bad liverpool this season. IT seems liverpool was losing its strength for the current season.
Sadio mane has gone and liverpool has darwin nunez now which is also the worst striker in the liverpool. So many new meme will come to him as  soon as  possible
This is a great achievement by wolves.

[Issa56]

Manchester United vs Manchester City will be a highly competitive match. Because both teams are very strong. Both the teams have almost equally strong XIs. Both teams will want to secure victory.

The two clubs are currently in form now and they both need the match so they won't want to lose the match. The match will be a tough one but I don't see any club winning the match, I think the match will end as draw. Manchester city finds it difficult to easily win Chelsea in their last match, they scored just one goal, we all know Chelsea is not in form, I think this will give Manchester united confidence that they can win Manchester city, but I still believe the match will end as draw, they will both be having just 1 point each.

[RILWAN]

Manchester United made it really difficult for Everton to defend because indeed with their condition they continued to attack it became very difficult for Everton in this match. But on the other hand, their match when they were behind was actually very good, even Everton could have equalized if it was not annulled and disaster at the end of the second half for Everton happened.
Penalties in the last minute immersed them even more in this game and the score 3-1 gracof ed the board when the game whistle ended.

Manchester United indeed played well in their last match and Everton too tried their possible best, but then luck was not on their side and since this season began, Man United have been in their best formation, and going forward am confident that they will win most of their future matches in the premier league.

How is it possible for MU to win the current season if the gap between MU and city were also very big at this moment to the arsenal? As long as arsenal will still consistent and no way for MU to win the current EPL. Both manchester clubs need to see arsenal losing a few matches to make it comes true. Manchester city will be in disaster if city will be losing full points against MU.
I think that MU has become the main threat for city. That will be so difficult to win the current season of MU was getting full points from manchester city

Manchester City have chances of winning the match.  Manchester United are trying now but can't try to challenge Manchester City, Manchester City  best squad in the English premier league.

They are not realistic about their true strength and very optimistic that they can beat Manchester City an Arsenal and take the crown. Personally they can win their matches against Manchester City and Arsenal but in a long season, they will not be able to beat Manchester City. If we consider Arsenal will fall down more in later of season, in best ending Manchester United can beat Arsenal on the table.

I believe a best position they can have in this season is a second position but have a position in top four is good enough for them. A second or third position is not too important for them in this season. Top four is enough for their earning and plans for next transfer market and next season.

[LUCKMCFLY]

I also think a draw is enough for Manchester United in this match, why? yes because their opponent is a team that has perfect strength. I'm not going to rule out that many people's doubts about Manchester United will be broken, but realistically we have to say that Manchester City are better than they are at the moment. The advantage for them may be because the match will be held at Old Trafford which is their headquarters. But Manchester City has a good memory when playing here.

With the consistency of Man United who has appeared extraordinary and must be ready against Man City, it is clear that Man United has the advantage of playing at Old Trafford. But is that enough? with Erik Ten Hag current trust I also hope that at least they can win by a narrow margin? But still, Man City's position is still superior, especially now that their target is also to reduce the gap with Arsenal, which of course makes Pep Guardiola install core players in the first minute to create pressure at the start.

Even though Man United haven't gotten a really good striker yet, they are currently in good confidence. facing City, of course, is a pretty tough match. but it's a good game for both teams. City will be favored with the maturity of their squad. but Man United could have mentally dropped City players at Old Trafford.

Man United can be as confident as they want, as much as possible, but they cannot compare levels, firstly, City has a great advantage only with Haaland, secondly, Haaland is confident and gets along very well with Pep Guardiola, they are playing differently brilliant, so far I have not seen any inconvenience to Man City with its players or club, on the other hand if we only look coldly at a Man Unted that is trying to get out of a big hole that has been forming for years, with a technical direction that for me is not up to par, and besides that it has a lot of problems with its managers, I think it may be that there is a lot to do.


a pearl of Pep:

Witty Pep Guardiola clearly ready for question over Arsenal slipping up in title race

Pep Guardiola was clearly ready for a cheeky question over Arsenal slipping up in their title charge.

The Gunners have set the pace for the Premier League season so far this campaign - and even Guardiola's Manchester City haven't been able to keep pace. City are currently five points behind the north London side, but it could have been so much worse.

Arsenal were held by Newcastle at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday evening, and Guardiola was asked if he thinks the Gunners will struggle to maintain their form. However, Guardiola was quick to respond interrupting the reporter with quick retorts.

City will be favored with the maturity of their squad. but Man United could have mentally dropped City players at Old Trafford.

If Manchester United can win against Manchester City, it will be a mental boost to Manchester United players who may now see the possibility of not just finishing top four but winning the league even with the not so very good start they had to the season. Manchester United can win, they have a very good attack with players that are playing very well and can score unlike Chelsea that lack good goal scorers. It will be a very equally matched game that may most likely end in a draw.

Manchester United vs Manchester City will be a highly competitive match. Because both teams are very strong. Both the teams have almost equally strong XIs. Both teams will want to secure victory.

Yes, it will be a tough match for Manchester city and Manchester united but Manchester city will definitely defeat Manchester united at the end of the match. No matter the strategies Manchester united are going to use in this match to play mighty Manchester city, it will not bring good result to Manchester united, because Manchester city know the pattern they are using in the premier league competition. I believe, Manchester city will defeat Manchester united 2-1 for the favour of Manchester city to increase their points.

In football, no mistake no goal, no goal no winning. As we already know that football is made up of three things; win, draw or lose. The side that makes more mistakes is the loser and the side that makes little or no mistakes wins the game. Manchester United we're very much careful against Arsenal and at the same time, they were able to utilize the mistakes made by their opponent (Arsenal) which was why they won the match. Arsenal's second leg with man united is also a test to ascertain united as EPL winners, but man united greatest rival for now is Manchester city.

[makishart]

Manchester City have chances of winning the match.  Manchester United are trying now but can't try to challenge Manchester City, Manchester City  best squad in the English premier league.

I guess you were joking about that. Arsenal is the best squad for now. I think that people gonna try to think that MU will be repeating the same mistake. MU is having a chance to beat city while city must also try to defend its position from losing against MU. City has a mission to get full points from MU. The problem is now MU is trying to get the best form to battle against city. City may become most favourite club in the match against MU.
I think that you shall not underestimate MU in the current form. The fact that if MU is also winning some games in a row. that proves that how credible MU to beat city at this moment.
I will take MU as a team to bet. City was strong but for me MU looks good
