Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[capedbaldy]

Felix's poor debut distracted everyone from the fact that Chelsea's disaster continues: after the break, Chelsea have one win (against Bormouth), one draw and three defeats in 5 games. I used to be sure that Potter had time to work, but now I'm not sure anymore. If Chelsea lose to Dortmund then they will most likely sack him.

Chelsea have suffered three consecutive defeats from all competitions, Felix's debut has exacerbated the situation of Chelsea losing position and his first debut was very ironic because of a red card in the second half. If the next match cannot prove Chelsea is still the best team for the premier league this year then Potter will be reviewed or replaced to restore the confidence of his supporters in The Blues.

If the next match cannot prove Chelsea is still the best team for the premier league this year then Potter will be reviewed or replaced to restore the confidence of his supporters in The Blues.

Losing game after game feels at this point kind of inevitable and our fate. This is just more than a Potter issue. It is more of a team thing. Injuries is messing up the team.
Imagine getting a losing the game and getting an injury and a red card all in one game what is the hope for the next match. From a goalkeeper to a clinical goal scorer and full back, Chelsea needs them.

Losing 4-0 to Manchester City and 2-1 against Fulham continues to make Chelsea the most talked about team. Believe it or not, Chelsea will be able to get out of this current form.

I believe that Chelsea's situation will improve. Graham Potter and the rest of the Blues are now well aware that their fans are feeling what they have been putting on when facing some opponents in recent competitions.
This is where it will be seen how true Blues fans are.

Previously, Manchester United have also felt what happened to Chelsea's current appearance. But because of the effort and hard work of all lines, Manchester United were able to give the best results to all their fans. The next challenge is against Manchester City.

Potter is a great coach and he certainly needs time and right players for the team. It's a tough task to manage such a huge club especially when a manager is new to managing a top level club, so definitely Potter needs time right now. They will get into form for sure but I think that would likely be in the next season. Even I feel owners know that it is out of hand in this season. They are making some transfers happen and I feel like they are gonna trust Potter for at least this season.

The Manchester derby seems really trickly according to odds. The odds shouldn't mislead you because Manchester United are shown as very weak. It is 4.20 for them while it is 1.85 for Manchester City. I would have expected a much less odd for Manchester United. Because they have been doing really well in the league for four weeks by a winning streak. I accept that nearly all of these wins were in comfortable matches but it is still a big morale for them. Because they will need this to be motivated for this derby more.

In addition Manchester United have had a successful run in big home matches in the league so far. This is another one and I think Manchester United's chance of winning here is not low at all.

Pep Guardiola has given some positive comments about Manchester United and some negative about Manchester City when they are always at Old Trafford, saying it gets much difficult to win Manchester United.

The game looking dicey, Manchester United Coach feels that they can win and do there thing just as they always do. One player I know for sure is Casemiro he has a good playing record against Manchester City whenever they meet in the Champions League, same experience will be used tomorrow so Manchester United can get all three points.
Marcus Rashford believes he can also continue the beautiful scoring form at Manchester United derby tommorow

Potter may need long time to start proving himself in Chelsea but the clear thing is that Chelsea this year is finished, they are 10 points away from Tottenham who is the last team in the European zone, this is absolutely a disaster for a team like Chelsea who got the champoins league 2 years ago

Is it unfair in the odds? Even though Manchester United is playing at home plus they have played well so far but with the odds given by the bookies of 4.20 cornering Manchester United is weak in my opinion, it can't be worse in this match for Ten Hag's team.

It's good that in the first leg Manchester United lost and it was in weakness but for now I don't think so, it can even be a motivation for Ten Hag's game to win, even though there will be many who favor Manchester City but in this derby, it will be more different from the first derby.

Leeds team will seek a positive result today when they travel to face aston villa because they need the points to get away from the relegated teams currently only two points separate them from the relegation zone, their opponent is a tough one and in a good shape i think even the draw will be a positive result.

[RealMalatesta]

Todd must be feel disappointed with all money being spent for nothing. Building the team can't be instant and that will always need long term plan. The problem is chelsea's owner wanna see the team get successful instantly without thinking about there must be a process to be passed before chelsea will able to become a strong team again. The result from the last 8 matches were so disappointed for the chelsea fans too. Potter ball was not even working for now. Chelsea may go even deeper than the current position.
It seems like that chelsea will not able to win against dortmund. it's caused by dortmund is far stronger compared with chelsea for the current season.

I think the frustration is not just about the results, but also about the fact that they spent more money than anyone else and still getting these results. If they spent like 20 million euro all year and nothing else which resulted with bad results then I would say that it makes sense to get bad results, in that situation results would not be an issue because you would think "I will just spend more next summer and get better".

But right now, they already spent more than anyone else in the league and still suck, not even remotely close and their closest rival in London is leading the league. Which is a terrible situation to be in, and they need to ask where all that money went to.

Felix ruined his Chelsea debut with a red card but I don't think it was really expected. He wasn't trying to hurt anyone, but it was a serious foul and I think the referee's decision was fair. But his performance for Chelsea during the first half and 10 minutes of the second half was good, I mean he managed to create some chances and also had some shots on target.

The red card was shame, but I think he was just trying to clear the ball. Now Felix has to be absent for the next Chelsea match and that is quite detrimental to Chelsea, however Felix can really make Chelsea better.

Felix is one player I'm so certain would not shine in Chelsea unless the current coach knows how to use him properly or they get a manager who can in future. Felix plays best behind a striker and that's is also Havertz preferred position so keeping both of them up front is a disaster. Felix performs best in an attacking team and that's part of the reason he didn't do really well at Atletico. Have great wingers and a good top striker while Felix is behind them and he will be in beast mode.
It's a really poor decision from Chelsea to continue the season with Felix and Havertz up front. Two players that are not prolific goal scorers and always struggle in front of goal.
I really wish the best for Felix but its difficult to see him prosper at Chelsea.

Yes I agree that Leeds will try to get points because they are really not safe only 2 points difference from the relegation team and at any time can be overtaken
It's just that it won't be easy to fight Aston Villa at the Villa Park Stadium moreover, leeds performance lately is very bad only win once in 5 matches
I'm not sure who will win this is rather difficult to predict, what do you think about this match ended in a draw?

Your really certain about that!
I really hope we don't get to right him off just because of that wrong tackle that earned him a red card in that game. The manager might not not at its best neither is Chelsea in any good shape but I think J. Felix is a major improvement to the squad and could do great things in Chelsea. He's quality is unmatched and he's already proving that in his willingness to go all out to ensure a Chelsea dominance from just his yesterday's game. The card was a fair warning and an introduction int the EPL, I expect him to be more careful when he returns.
He needed some time off anyway, you don't just get signed and in few days, your on the pitch. It shows how the quality of players in Chelsea have dropped and there eagerness to push forward.

Tottenham - Arsenal is another match I'm very curious about. This is very important for Arsenal to maintain their advantage in the lead and maybe even to open the point gap with Manchester City. If Manchester City lose points tomorrow which is pretty likely in my opinion, then Arsenal will have a huge opportunity to be safer in the lead. But beating Tottenham will not be an easy task for Arsenal that's for certain. Yeah maybe Tottenham haven't been one of the most consistent teams recently but this is still a big match.

The atmosphere is much more different in such matches so Arsenal need to be careful. Besides they will hope for Nketiah to maintain his productive performance as well. He has been doing a good job about filling Jesus' place.

Leeds are a good team and this season they have been scoring so decent amount of goals. Some of these were scored against top PL teams so they shouldn't be mistook as an easy opponent. Only thing that lets them down is their defence as most of the times they aren't able to hold down to the advantage in the game. On the other hand, it will be interesting to see how Emery selects his defence and what message does he give to them in order to hold Leeds attacks.

[Issa56]

It seems that Chelsea can't wake up from their nightmare yet, and I think it will be very tough for Chelsea to get into the top 4 this season. Actually, they had some good chances against Fulham, but they didn't seem to know how to finish those opportunities.

Chelsea is not among the clubs that's will get to top four before the season end, Chelsea performance is getting worst in every matches they play, their is no improvement in the way Chelsea is playing. Chelsea wasted lot's of opportunities in yesterday's match against Fulham, I was not expecting Chelsea to lose the match but unfortunately Fulham defeated them. Chelsea have being losing most of the matches they have being playing recently, I don't know how they can manage to end the season in top four.

For sure this match is definitely going to be tough. Tottenham playing at home will put their momentum high up but I don’t know if they can perform well since they’ve not been in a good shape as of recent. Arsenal dropped 2 points against Newcastle in their last EPL game and I’m sure they can’t afford to drop another point against Tottenham. They’ll go all in on Sunday in the derby and I expect nothing more than a win for the Gunners.

[LittleBitFunny]

Joao Felix's debut with Chelsea did not go well and this is clearly a problem for them even though as you said, with Joao Felix they expected more from this player, especially for their attack line. But Felix's first game was really bad. Not only did he not contribute, he was also one of the causes of Chelsea's defeat in this match.
I think Potter is still at a disadvantage for now regardless of whatever move he makes this time it will definitely be watched over and will still be blamed when something doesn't go as expected.

A hard slap as well as a complete package for Graham Potter was blown at the end of this season. Many decisions were made in vain by Chelsea, starting from purchases that cost money and the results were also far from what was expected. Fulham really made Chelsea helpless, I appreciate Fulham's game which can solidly last until the final round.
Will be exciting news this week, but keep in mind that Chelsea will also face Crystal Palace and for the record, without Joao Felix I guarantee their form will be much different. From the start, it was better without Felix in my opinion. On the positive side after Felix was given a red card and missed 3 matches maybe Chelsea can improve in the next game.

Felix just came into this team. And he already got red-carded in his first match. It's like that proverb,  "when it rains it pours".

Actually, I think Chelsea just got jinxed this season. Whatever they are trying is not working. At this moment I am not going to be surprised if they bring in a new coach and that does not even work out. They are in the 10th position on the table. And they are not showing any signs of improvement as well. I do not know how they will be able to fix all of their problems. At least not happening this season.

The Chelsea I knew wouldn't give a manager this time to be losing week by week. Potter is lucky to be working under the new owner of Chelsea, like we all know, if it was Roman Abramovic by now we would have been expecting a new coach but things have changed in this new era. I still believe Chelsea can manage to make top 6 and they can even fight for top 4 if care is not taken.

Whatever the reason, I don't expect Manchester City to make that many mistakes at Old Trafford tomorrow. Of course I expected Manchester City to win the game as people expected, I hope so and i hope they succeed. I also wouldn't say the derby is easy especially for Manchester City. The downside is that City loss points because Manchester United have been good so far, but I really hope it's the otherwise.

If Manchester City loses, it is a big advantage for Arsenal. But if City win, then Arsenal will certainly be more serious when facing their derby match against Tottenham.

On the other hand, it will be interesting to see how Emery selects his defence and what message does he give to them in order to hold Leeds attacks.

Yes, I know it but as we see lately their performance continues to decline and miss a few points only collect 5 points in the last 5 matches that's clearly bad
If Leeds play at home, of course it can be considered unfortunately this time Leeds played away so they need more luck to win.
Besides Aston Villa is not a weak team sometimes they cannot be predicted they once defeated Chelsea and Tottenham.

[Velvet78]

Aston Villa are favoured against Leeds maybe but I'm not fully trusting them honestly. Leeds have a decent history against them considering the head-to-head games. In this season things aren't much different for these teams as well. There is only a five-point gap between them in the standings. Aston Villa are just ahead by a small gap in my opinion.

I expect that to reflect on the result of this game as well. Aston Villa can win this by one goal in my opinion. I expect both teams to score at the same time.
