Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Distraction]

A tough matchup is waiting for Liverpool up next. It is going to be an away match against Brighton. After the big loss against Brentford I wonder if there will be another one here.

Right after Potter left Brighton they had a hard time period for some weeks. But they started to get accustomed to De Zerbi in time. They have a really improved morale also after destroying Everton in Goodison Park by 4-1. Brighton are like one of the most productive teams in terms of scoring this season. Their weakness is also defending just as Liverpool. I think we will watch both teams playing an attacking football. This means that we could see both teams scoring also. My first choice for betting is going to be both teams to score.

It's quite clear rhat Asernal will dominate the premier league this season, but if clubs like Manchester united could beat Asernal in any of their meetings it will become impossible for Arsenal to avoid Manchester winning which affect their position this season.

If Arsenal can lose to Manchester united again, then their is high chances that Arsenal will be dropping from the first position which they are currently, Manchester City is just looking for opportunity so that Arsenal will fuck up and they will overtake them.

Arsenal is still 5 points ahead of Manchester City. So, I don't think losing one match will see Arsenal lose the top spot in the table. Arsenal will lose the top spot if they drop points from two matches.
However, Arsenal's performance in the last three matches was quite good. They won against West Ham and Brighton and shared the points with Newcastle. Newcastle has been very strong this season.

So, I don't think sharing points with them is a bad result. It is challenging for Arsenal to win the next two matches. Both Tottenham and Manchester United are very strong right now. I think if Arsenal can dominate these two matches and win then they can become the champions of this season.

It is quite possible to lose two matches out of the remaining 20, I would even say it is more likely to happen. There is only a small chance that in these 20 matches they won't make the mistake of drawing somewhere or losing altogether. But it's more like guessing by coffee grounds, because Manchester City can also lose points. I am still confident that the intrigue will be there until the very end.

Funny, I think Tuchel is a good coach and Potter is a mistake. I wasn't even sure from the start when the shareholders changed and chose Potter as a replacement. Indeed, Chelsea are not good at the moment, but a coach like Potter who doesn't have much experience may have an impact and today we can see the results.
Indeed they are currently quite good at UCL. But in the EPL they can't compete much. Playing at home lost 1 goal and instead they became Tigers had no fangs. They drowned at the Etihad. I didn't read much news regarding Chelsea's transfer today, if they were still the same, the UCL zone might be difficult to achieve at the end of the season.

Big mistake when giving Chelsea position manager to Graham Potter has not any experienced with bigger team, I don't think what his achievement at current team with Brighton Albion are amazing performance. Sacked Tuchel and replacing with less experienced manager seems not working well and right now Chelsea face dilemma will sacking or replacing Graham Potter with new manager?

Current standing position in English Primer League, Chelsea remaining 10 points from UEFA Champion League spot zone and seems still possibility get one place for qualifying to Champion League next season, but seems opportunity with Primer League tittle almost close after leaving 19 points with Arsenal.

chelsea's situation was already complicated even in tuchel's times and this is due to the fact that chelsea did not have a good defense, did not have an effective attack and could not even play well when playing against weak teams and I even wondered if the problem was even in the players and coaches or in the management of the club, chelsea's situation is very similar to everton's situation, in my opinion chelsea needed a coach with zidane or even pochettino, if we look at chelsea, these chelsea players are in need of a coach with great achievements like pochettino, because zidane i really doubt he will accept coaching a team now

Joao Felix would have found an agreement with Chelsea, Atletico madrid would go 11 million for the onerous loan with right of redemption set at a much higher price that should become an obligation in June if the athletic does not intervene with the counterproposal.

it seems to me that everything is not closed yet

Chelsea look set to beat Man Utd and Arsenal to the signing of Joao Felix; Atletico and Portugal forward could become Chelsea's fourth January signing, after Benoit Badiashile, David Datro Fofana and Andrey Santos; Blues need to boost an attack that has scored just 20 in 17 league games

So has he already signed papers or are they still trying to make deals? in any case these all chelsea signings will make chelsea become a very strong team, the chelsea coach just needs more time to organize the team and then people started to see the victories, at least that's what i think I think and I hope I'm not wrong to think that way, Chelsea are already preparing for the next season, this season they have nothing left to conquer at their low level

I think instead of thinking about a much better game they are thinking about how to face Tottenham and that they have to make it 3 points in this game.
The match against Manchester United is still a bit long because Manchester United is also still focused on the derby with City so I think it would be better for Arsenal to focus first on the nearest match.

[YuginKadoya]

Tuchel has been doing so many transfers before he was leaving from chelsea. Potter didn't know what tuchel wanna try to do with the transfers that already made before. that's why so many new players look like useless for the club right now. I know that's need the time for the new coach to adapt with the new team but it doesn't mean chelsea must be placed in the bottom like this. This is a very bad thing for chelsea and it was also making so many fans were feeling disappointed with the club. Chelsea is shit right now. It didn't even represent the big club in EPL. The big club must be newcastle as it's competing with another top club in EPL.
I didn't even expect chelsea to play in the UCL next season. Chelsea has no chance to make it happen caused by the gap is too far.

This must be the downfall for Chelsea, Thomas Tuchel must be behind something when that transfer has brought up, but maybe his plan was for his long stay at Chelsea, and he might devise a plan that can make Chelsea great but for sure he is the only one that knows about that, then came Graham Potter that is still adjusting to the new faces I really think this will cause a great dilemma to the team and it will be a long winter to the bottom of the standings when this continues to progress for Chelsea and if Graham Potter doesn't device a permanent solution to the problem then it could be a really long winter for Chelsea,

The London derby against Tottenham Hotspur is very decisive for them to stay at the top because winning results is a target that Arteta must achieve to continue to stay away from Manchester City who will also play the Manchester derby match.

Arsenal before travelling to Tottenham Hotspur stadium, they have to undergo a match against Oxford United in the FA Cup tournament later. Although Arteta has the opportunity to rest a number of important players, the victory will be a magnet for Arsenal players to face Tottenham, who have just won against Portsmouth.

This season Arsenal are a very consistent team.

Tottenham VS Arsenal is quite interesting for me but for sure Arsenal will end up winning this and maybe they will stay away from Man City but they seem to eventually clash, FA Cup against Preston and UEFA Championship against Milan is a sure need win for Tottenham because that will be a crucial match for them and that will be on the next month so they will have plenty of time to prepare,

Right now Oxford Utd VS Arsenal match is live and Arsenal is crushing Oxford right now with 0 - 3 goals Arsenal's performance is just superb against Oxford,

I agree, arsenal need to manage match by match whatever who will be the oppenet, they already did a great job but they must not put their selves in pressure by focusing on matches that they still have long time to prepare for them, now they have a hard match against Tottenham and they should absolutely get the 3 points and stay in the lead without pressure

[snipie]

Chelsea lost its sense of scoring and resistance. Taking 4 goals like that in a game that isn't that important for City like EPL games is a bad thing.
The goal of Mahrez in that game from a free-kick was awesome BTW. Even the penalty kick was kinda impossible to catch. He scored 2 goals in total.
Aston Villa lost vs a team playing in League 2.. Arsenal will play soon vs Oxford.

I think Chelsea are competing with my team Liverpool to have the worst season. Unbelievably bad seasons by both teams so far. I expected so much better this season from LFC & I’m sure Chelsea fans did too.

Really bad result by Aston Villa, I don’t expect Arsenal to have a similar problem tonight.

Although there is only 3 points difference between them but I find Chelsea season miserable and worse than Liverpool.
When you look on the table, you find teams scoring +27-30 goals then suddenly you find Chelsea, 10th, with only 20 goals scored.. They are scoring a goal and receiving a goal in median every game which isn't a good sign.
Without commenting about the coaches qualities. Klopp is being unlucky with injuries and Liverpool strategy on spending in the beginning of the season. This might change after the transfer window maybe

[Captain Corporate]

I do not see that much difference to be fair, and I find Liverpool even in worse position this year. Liverpool fought for the title last year and was finalist of UCL. How terrible do you need to be in order to be second and be very close to leader at the league and beat everyone until finals at champions league and then a year later you suck so and that its questionable you would even go to conference league. Like how do you go from there to that? Chelsea wasn't the best team nor even second best team and had a huge ownership issue, its understandable to have one down year after the takeover, Liverpool was just vibing and suddenly became bad.

[TopT3ns]

Arsenal fans have the right to dream but they are a bit overconfidence, premier league is a hard competition and it's very hard to predict the winner even if the gap is large, the next matches will be very important for both teams and if arsenal will manage to at least keep the gap at 5 points i think they will have easier path

Arsenal managed to get a 3-0 score in the match against Oxford Utd and managed to get the win, but in the next game, Arsenal faced several big clubs who had good defensive strength, so it was very difficult to penetrate their defense. Arsenal had to prepare a different strategy than now against Tottenham.

That was an FA Cup game, not Premier League. Teams use different players in cup games and league games. Arteta still had to use most of his starters in this match. They couldn't find a goal until 63rd minute so he had to bring Zinchenko and Xhaka. Only Ødegaard stayed in bench so he's fresh. Nketiah scored two goals and boosted his morale. I'm happy he started scoring goals now. He's an important player in the absence of Jesus.
Arsenal will play two though games back to back, against Spurs and ManU. They have to pass this stage with minimum loss.

[CryptoPanda]

But actually, right after Tuchel was replaced by Graham Potter, we could see that Chelsea had improved quite a bit. 9 matches without defeat but only 3 draws and 6 wins. However, after Chelsea lost to Brighton, it seems that Chelsea's performance since then has really gotten worse. It was as if there was another problem within the club. Of course we know that Chelsea is lacking superior players. But it shouldn't be as bad as it is now. At least in the next game Chelsea will face Fullham. and I hope Chelsea can return to show their best performance in the match later.

The coaching transition always occur in that manner if you observe it. The old coaching philosophy wears out with time/games and the new coaching pattern sets in. Most of the time it is not immediate since new players are not brought in. Besides, Tuchel is not doing that bad when he left.

Tuchel has been doing so many transfers before he was leaving from chelsea. Potter didn't know what tuchel wanna try to do with the transfers that already made before. that's why so many new players look like useless for the club right now.

I didn't even expect chelsea to play in the UCL next season. Chelsea has no chance to make it happen caused by the gap is too far.

Both managers have different philosophies as we can see the differences in the kind of signings both managers have made. You are right that Tuchel had his plans for the players he signed before his departure which now seem to be useless to Graham Potter which has really messed things up and caused the team to struggle with getting back to good form again. To sum it all losing back to back to Manchester city is so disappointing and I’m betting on Potter losing his job if this poor results keep coming.

What keeps getting me tired in all of this, is that Chelsea didn't lose many of her games like this during the time of Tuchel, and he was sacked immediately due to Chelsea's ownership changing hands. The new management of Chelsea does need to keep giving Potter more time until he destroys the Chelsea club finally before they do the needful.

Chelsea is yet to play any UCL game for now, by the time they play against Dortmund around February, we can now say whether they are quite good in the UCL or not.

Yeah, managers use different squad of players for different leagues. It all depends on the importance of the match to the manager. Although, it was an FA cup came, I think Arsenal didn’t play at their best and only scored a goal in the second half of the game. I also love the fact that Nketiah has found his mojo and is now scoring goals. I think he has a lot of potential playing at Arsenal. And he is staring out to be a good replacement for Gabriel Jesus.
The game with Tottenham would be challenging and Arsenal would need to bring out their big guns to be able to win the game.

I would say Arsenal are in very good form. They can't win against Newcastle. But Arsenal players managed to score four goals against Brighton. Arsenal team also got a nice 3-0 win against Oxford United. Arsenal players dominated the match. But the upcoming matches are very important for Arsenal if they want to win the Premier League title. Arsenal team will play against Tottenham and United. They need to get full points in these two matches if they want to be champions. At the same time Arsenal was defeated in the first match against Manchester United. They have to avenge their previous defeat.

Chelsea and Fulham match will be a hard play for Chelsea despite that the have won Fulham in their last five meetings both in home and away but considering their recent form I will say that it will be a hard one for Chelsea as a team but the might be lucky to get the 3 point because of their previous history with this team so I will say that Chelsea remains a superior over this Fulham.

[Velvet78]

Fulham is going to be a challenging opponent for Chelsea. They are already above Chelsea in the standings and their performance has been a little more impressive so far as well. Chelsea are still dealing with goal issues and we don't know when they will be able to fix their problems. They are desperately trying to solve this by transferring new attackers but we will see.

It depends on the team effort mostly of course. Potter needs to find a way to motivate the players to have a decent form in the league finally. But I don't feel like this is the game they are making a good start.

[asriloni]

Joao Felix would have found an agreement with Chelsea, Atletico madrid would go 11 million for the onerous loan with right of redemption set at a much higher price that should become an obligation in June if the athletic does not intervene with the counterproposal.

11 millions were so easy for chelsea but what's the point to buy him? as far as i know that chelsea already bought some strikers too. That means if the competition will be strict and it will be also changing the strategy that being used by potter. I personally think that this is a very bad idea for sure. Joao may be so cheap for chelsea but it doesn't mean that if chelsea was doing so well even if the club was playing with him. That's the price that atletico adrid would be agreed for him

[Rabi3]

Last time Fulham beat Chelsea was in 2006 and they played a lot of times against each other after that, thus time its different, Chelsea are behind Fulham in the leaderboard and Fulham won their last 3 matches, it will be a tough match here for both teams, and if I had to bet on it I'd go with Fulham to score the first goal of the match.

[Newlifebtc]

Match between Manchester United and Manchester city will be an interesting match for viewers because this match is a game that can help Manchester United to close the gap between them and Manchester city and also Manchester city needs to win this game for them to move further but most like manchester city might secure  a winning in this match and more goals are expected  in this game.

[kawetsriyanto]

I would say Arsenal are in very good form. They can't win against Newcastle. But Arsenal players managed to score four goals against Brighton. Arsenal team also got a nice 3-0 win against Oxford United. Arsenal players dominated the match. But the upcoming matches are very important for Arsenal if they want to win the Premier League title. Arsenal team will play against Tottenham and United. They need to get full points in these two matches if they want to be champions. At the same time Arsenal was defeated in the first match against Manchester United. They have to avenge their previous defeat.

Arsenal is surely in a good form, they are also still leading the EPL standings. Although they failed to get full points against Newcastle, they still have 5 point difference with Man City. In the next match, Arsenal will play against Tottenham, while Man City will play against Man United. Both Arsenal and Man City have a chance to lose points. However, considering the current performance of those teams, I believe Arsenal has a better chance to get points. Man City will be difficult to get points from Man United. Man United looks stronger now, they returned to their best form again. I assume Man United can defeat Man City in Old Trafford.
