Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Zackgeno96]

Today the game for the FA cup. I think both teams will be very motivated to win this match. If you lose, you are immediately eliminated from this tournament. I suspect that both teams will also play with the strongest possible line-up. Arsenal have not won any titles in terms of the championship for a few years. In the last 10 years, however, Arsenal has won the FA cup 4 times, which is also worth mentioning. Not many other teams have done that. But Man City are a tough opponent, and it's only the 4th round, not even the final. Nice draw for both clubs.

It is difficult for Manchester City to be able to win the Premier League title again this season, because Manchester City's performance has not been very good this season and even that happened before the World Cup break. Even though Manchester City has a good squad like Haaland but still, Manchester City still cannot guarantee to consistently achieve good results in every match they play.
The only way for Manchester City to win the Premier League title this season is to expect Arsenal's performance to decline.

Arsenal is already taking lead on the table, and the way arsenal is preforming currently, I don't think Arsenal is ready to drop points anyhow, Arsenal performance this season have been completely different from previous seasons. The chances of Manchester City winning the Premier League this season is very slim, it will be kind of difficult for them to overtake Arsenal, Manchester City had some opportunities but they didn't utilize it well. The only thing that can make them win the Premier League is when Arsenal start misbehaving, which I don't think it will happen this season, Arsenal players are dedicated this season.

[YuginKadoya]

They have different priorities in this season and FA Cup is not at top of their priorities especially Manchester City. I believe Arsenal don't put FA Cup at top of their priority list too because Premier League is bigger and they must assign best resources for it. It is especially important for Arsenal to focus on it and protect the 5 points difference they have against Manchester City.

I really think they are trying to focus more on the Premier League for now and because FA Cup is just there around the corner right now they are focusing on what is in front of them and I think they have a great job with Manchester United and they already know that the Manchester United is not a push over the team so Arsenal would need to push through and be wise with their movement because anything can happen in every game,

Of course, they are both big clubs and are competing each other directly so they won't give up the match in FA Cup easily. So I am sure they will contribute an exciting match for us to watch on televisions or on field. However, I don't expect to see their best players to play because they need best players for Premier League and Champions League.

I think every team is doing just that, FA Cup is not that big but when it comes to Championship League every team is open to that I think and if Premier League Arsenal will perform like this until the last match day then a likely we see new Champion for the Premier League, last season was the Manchester City but for this season Arsenal is the favorite right now and could get the Reigning champion a run for their championship trophy,  

[Queentoshi]

this is the match I'm waiting for as a Manchester City supporter of course I want Arsenal to play with a full squad so that this match will be great to watch later, of course I bet on Manchester City hoping Arsenal will play well against Manchester City later  

Today game is a big game, but not as big when they play against each other in the Premier League, Arsenal will be focusing more on how to Win the Premier League Title this season, but is not going to be easy for them, because Manchester City will try every possible to hunt them down, they still have Manchester city to play twice in the Premier League and some other good teams as well, Manchester city will try to win the game today, because is going to take them a step closer in winning the Emirate FA cup, since the Premier League is not sure for them for the now with the kind of form Arsenal are so far this season.

[un_rank]

Starting 11 for Arsenal and Manchester City are in for the big FA Cup tie;

And both teams have named very strong sides for tonight's match up. It is definitely not as important as an EPL clash between the two teams, but it is still a very important fixture. Hopefully Zinchenko would get some minutes in against his former side and we the fans would get an amazing game of football on our hands,

I think that either teams will be playing with the full squads. The result from this match is really important for any of them. Manchester city wants trophy and arsenal too. my focus was on the match between city against arsenal. if city can win the match against arsenal and city will get easy way to win FA cup. Arsenal must be careful with city in EPL. This is the hottest match this week. I can't wait to see that how both will be attacking each other. that will become a beautiful match for sure.

In the 4th round meeting of the FA Cup, Manchester City vs Arsenal was a big match which presented quite a fierce game from the top two teams in the EPL. I am more interested in seeing Arteta vs Guardiola because these two coaches are friends or have worked with one team in previous years. And this is a rival match that gives a more interesting feel to the game considering that Arteta has been able to make Arsenal very strong this season.

The line-up for both teams are available for us to see. Erling Haaland became Pep Guardiola' choice in the match against Arsenal. I think erling Haaland will be able to score goals in this match. he is the monster that the opposing team is very afraid of this season.

[indah rezqi]

Like I said previously, it will be difficult for Arsenal to beat Manchester city even though they(Arsenal) seems to be on top of their game this season.
I was searching some old time records on Google some hours ago, to see the result of all the matches where Manchester city have played against Arsenal in the previous years, I discovered that Arsenal have never won or beat Manchester city on any of their previous matches in the last 2 to 3 years.
So if they(Arsenal) manage to beat Manchester city on this game coming up, it will really be a big achievement for them and their fans..
All the same, I wish them the best of luck..

Manchester City are not very good at the FA Cup, they tend to lose to other teams so I used to think that Pep Guardiola only focused on the Premier League and the Champions League in previous seasons.

Since being appointed July 1, 2016 as manager of Manchester City, Pep has only managed to win 1 FA Cup title in the 2018/2019 season. Meanwhile Pep has won 4x English League Cup, 2x English Super Cup and 4x Premier League. That is his achievement so far with Manchester City.

Arsenal are more proud of the FA Cup, they have won 14 titles and the last time was in the 2019/2020 season. This season they excel, I think they should.

Looking at the current line-up, they displayed some of their core players and the others were reserve players, like at Manchester City there were no Ederson, Cancelo and Alvarez names because they only kept Haaland as their only target with a 4-2-3-1 formation and for Arsenal at the moment there is no Odegaard as their captain. Martineli, Zinchenko and Ramsdale are also rested but we will see Trossard debut in this game.

[Rruchi man]

The line-up for both teams are available for us to see.

Our first test against Manchester City, I see a lot of team changes, with Trossard starting ahead of Martinelli, Ramsdale resting and Turner starting, Odegaard rested, Saliba rested. I like what Arteta has done starting with a line up that is not our usual starting eleven, but I hope that it doesn't limit our chances. Pep starting with a very good team as well.

Arsenal has already made a very good attempt with a very solid and direct shot from Tomiyasu after good work done from Trossard. A win in this game for Arsenal will give us confidence when we play them again in the premier league in a few weeks.

If Arsenal can win in this match then obviously it is a very perfect result and also, Arsenal will be a team that has a big chance to win the title. Because in the previous two matches Arsenal managed to beat Tottenham and also Manchester United, it was clear that these were not easy matches.
What's more, Arsenal are currently playing against Manchester City, of course Manchester City is a great team, so if Arsenal can get rid of Manchester City in this match then Arsenal will be the best team this season, of course.

[ILuckyGuyI]

If you're a Tottenham supporter then just pray that Haaland and the others don't score, but I don't think you're either one of those two. Expecting Tottenham to beat Manchester City is possible, but the probability is low. I'm not sure if Tottenham can be stronger at home, but I don't think Manchester City will be that weak.

Manchester City are determined to keep their distance from Arsenal who have led the standings so far for so long. Arsenal has 1 other match that has not been played so the points will probably be 8 points different from Manchester City. So winning is mandatory for Pep Guardiola and his team, there are no excuses.

I have sympathy for Chelsea in the Premier League in fact and I'm kind of a supporter as a result. But they are having a really poor season and this is sad for me.

When it comes to the team I want to see as champions this season, I can say that it's Arsenal. Because I completely believe that they deserve the title more than any other team in the league now. Even Manchester City are quite unpredictable recently. They don't play like they deserve the league title honestly. Arsenal are the opposite. They have been very amazing even in times Gabriel Jesus wasn't able to score goals. Now Nketiah is filling his place very well in his absence.

Apart from Arsenal, I think Manchester City also has a chance to win this match. I know Arsenal have been better this season, but I expect Manchester City to prove themselves better than Arsenal. Obviously it's not about the Premier League, it's about the FA Cup which is probably less tense.

Arsenal did not play all their best players in this match since the first half, maybe because they have big plans in the second half. I don't see Gabriel Martinelli and Martin Ødegaard in the main line-up, so Arsenal's strength in this match should not be the same.

When it comes to the team I want to see as champions this season, I can say that it's Arsenal. Because I completely believe that they deserve the title more than any other team in the league now.

They have been very amazing even in times Gabriel Jesus wasn't able to score goals. Now Nketiah is filling his place very well in his absence.

Manchester City are playing as they should, but it's always difficult to win all the match where all the other teams expect points and are very competitive. This leaves Manchester City behind, maybe because Manchester City's strategy is easy to read or something while Arsenal is surprising.

Chelsea passing through tough session this season but they will do better as time goes on. There is still enough time for Graham Potter to bring the best out of his players. Chelsea newly signed players are doing extremely good on their debuts for the team. Mudryk is a constant threat on debut and will do more in the clash against Fulham. Mudryk is definitely made of good footings on the ball and very fast with the ball. He will do well in the team despite other keyplayers and I believe he have earned his shirt under Graham Potter. The Ukrainian surprised everyone on his debut with more actions on the pitch. Fulham is a mediocre team and they won't be a big threat in the game..

It's not obvious that they didn't as, you can't bring your A team to a game like this where you get to play your rival to a more important league and your sure to meet them again. Arsenal definitely wants to taste Manchester City to see what they are made of and how they could hanfle them and so far, they've been very good at it, both teams to be precise.
The level of coordination in both teams have been unmatched and you can tell the players are really watching it not to make sudden mistakes. Some mistakes to have presented itself in the match has come from Arsenal's goalkeeper Turner but, Manchester City haven been able to make good use of it.
Are for Manchester City have been very watchful and steady on B. Saka not to make certain runs, the play to formation has just been perfect.

I think this doesn't really matter even though Arsenal can win because this match doesn't really mean much for the two clubs but the tension might be different when they meet in the EPL instead of the FA Cup as it is now.
So far the match is still a bit monotonous even though there have been several opportunities created there but the ball is mostly in the middle of the field for 35 minutes of running time.

Sure. This match isn't as big as the EPL matches, but Arsenal and Man City still try to give their best in this match. We can see that both Arsenal and Man City release almost their top players in the lineups, I'm a bit surprised that both of them let their main strikers play. They only rest their main goalkeepers and some defenders. Well, it indicates that they are very serious to win this match, they consider the title of FA Cup important, too.

By the way, not only Zinchenko, I also hope Martin Ødegaard, Ben White, or William Saliba to play as well. If Arsenal cannot get enough chances to make goals, Arteta needs to consider releasing other main players to play in the second half. Man City looks very serious to play, Arteta needs to be more careful and doesn't underestimate them.

Manchester city and Arsenal locks horn again in this magnificent encounter in the Fa cup. Honestly I am not hyped about this match.
 
Well I have my money on Arsenal in this match I honestly feel they want it more than Manchester City and they have all it takes to get it.

The first half was in training mode, both teams either did not immediately show all their trump cards or are not going to do this at all
However, Arsenal have had a couple of chances while City haven't created anything and by the way, Haaland is still nowhere to be seen on the pitch. On the other hand, it takes him 5 seconds to take advantage of the opportunity to get his name on the score sheet.

Yes the first half ended that I thought was less attractive and aggressive maybe both teams play more carefully this time
I know the two teams are targeting to win because in fact they play the main squad this means that this fight is an important match
Previously I placed a bet on both teams to score yes unfortunately there hasn't been a goal so far still waiting in the 2nd round.

Manchester city is playing the same pattern of football as Real Madrid this season, they may have not put the best foot forward in this first half, but they're going to make every possible attempt to make a goal score in the second half and if Asernal does not close their defence in the second half any attempt from Manchester city will become a possible goal. But I doubt if there are going to be multiple goals in the match as both clubs are well-prepared for thos games tonight.
