Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Silence Scream]

This week we have Bournemouth and Manchester City and all we know about this game is people usually predict that Manchester City can easily beat Bournemouth this week because during all the recent five games they faced Manchester City, they always lost the game and the last time they lost with a 4-0 result and right now Bournemouth is near to the anger zone at 17th place of the table while Manchester City is fighting at top of the table.

As usual, Bournemouth shouldn't be a big problem for Man City to win. But when Man City faced weaker clubs, their games always didn't go well. Sometimes their performance apart from being unbalanced is also easier to penetrate. It's different when the opponent is a big club and has balanced aspects of the quality of the game, then Man City is able to provide more resistance and excel. Even though on paper Man City clearly came out victorious, we don't know what Bournemouth has prepared to make their game even more difficult to penetrate.

Manchester City is the most prolific team this season by creating 60 goals, while Bournemouth is the team that has conceded the most goals with 44 goals that have been created against them. In their last match, Manchester City won with a landslide score of 4-0 while playing at the Etihad Stadium, even though this is a home match for Bournelouth I predict that Manchester City will repeat the success by beating Bournemouth again by scoring at least 2 goals.

Erling Haaland scores 26 goals for Manchester City, leading them hard to beat in the top scorer race.  Despite Manchester City scoring many goals, they continue in the league behind Arsenal.  Despite being missing a match, they are in the lead by 2 points.  The championship race between Manchester City and Arsenal adds excitement to the Premier league.

I don't think that Chelsea would be as bad with Tuchel as they now are with Potter.

I think Chelsea needs a experience  coach, I don't think Potter has anything to offer Chelsea, I think Chelsea made a great mistake by sacking Tuchel, they should have just given him more time, Chelsea is getting worst daily under Potter, I think the best think that Chelsea can do now is to sack Potter and get a new coach but my question is which coach will Chelsea get to solve their current problem? They shouldn't sack Potter and get a coach that's worst than their current coach, it's not just about getting a new coach but Chelsea needs a experienced coach.

Agreed! Chelsea needs a successful coach with experience. Sacking Tuchel was a mistake, and Potter has underperformed. Who should replace him at Chelsea? Chelsea should invest much on an experienced coach to turn their season around!

Chelsea! Why not spend a few million on a top coach after spending half a billion on the team? Hiring Potter, an untested coach, risks the club's future. Why wouldn't they pay Zidane a fortune to coach the club? Who wouldn't want to work for a club that invests so much in success?

Chelsea may need some serious introspection. Are they making smart club decisions or playing it safe? How much does not hiring an experienced coach cost? Can they risk that? Chelsea needs to take a risk and hire an experienced coach to succeed.

It is only a win win situation if you look at two different things: for Ronaldo the money is a win, and for Manchester United the title would be a win. But Ronaldo's behavior is a little bit of a dark shadow on his career. There is no doubt he is among the GOAT and the numbers speak for themselves. But behavior does play a role when it comes to how a player is remembered.

Players who refuse to grow old and feel that they are the best are not only Ronaldo. Ibrahimovic does not say he is the best, but he refuses to retire even though he is no longer young.

Zidane and Materazzi are remembered as legends for their achievements for the clubs and national teams they represented. Likewise for Ronaldo, he will still be remembered for his skills and achievements when he was with MU in the past. Now, their relationship is not good (I think), the sale of a house in Manchester, maybe a sign that he is no longer interested in going to MU anymore, but I don't know if maybe he will become a successful coach, and become a MU coach in the future came, buying another house in Manchester would not be difficult for him.

When Manchester United wins a title, much of what Ronaldo said speaks actually against him.

yup, on several occasions Ronaldo seemed to have no respect for Ten Haag, MU's failure at that time was considered because of Ten Hag. but MU has now managed to improve their performance, which means Ten Hag has the ability, it's just Ronaldo is too arrogant to blame Ten Hag for MU's poor performance at the beginning of Ten Hag's coaching MU.

Comparing Ibrahimovic to Ronaldo is not fair towards Ibrahimovic. Ronaldo is a conceited guy who can't make fun of himself or feel joy for others when they are successful. Ibrahimovic is a showman who can very well laugh about himself, who jumps up from the bench when his team scores a goal, who raises his arms when someone else scores a goal, who never complains when he is sitting on the bench. That is why Ibrahimovic became an iconic meme for his amazingly funny quotes. If Ibrahimovic says he is the best, everyone is ok with it because he puts the team first anyway and everyone knows it.

Ronaldo is different.

I don't think Ronaldo will become a coach. He is no authority because of his personality. He is only an authority because he scored like a GOAT. But to become a coach I think you need to have a certain aura, strategic understanding. Imagine Ronaldo telling his offensive players to work more defensively! They must be laughing at him.

The upcoming game day is another tough test for Chelsea against Tottenham. If they don't win it is the fifth game in a row without winning. I don't know but has that happened before to Chelsea in their premier league history?

This week we have Bournemouth and Manchester City and all we know about this game is people usually predict that Manchester City can easily beat Bournemouth this week because during all the recent five games they faced Manchester City, they always lost the game and the last time they lost with a 4-0 result and right now Bournemouth is near to the anger zone at 17th place of the table while Manchester City is fighting at top of the table.

It is absolutely impossible for Bournemouth to be able to beat Manchester City and even if Bournemouth hosts it will not change anything. I think Manchester City will win big again like the last meeting between the two. Whereas for Bournemouth maybe they have to give up all possibilities that don't go their way, actually if they can hold Manchester City to a draw in this match at least they will be quite helped with an additional point.

I can't say it's impossible, because this is football where anything can happen. But indeed it was very difficult for Bournemouth to do even though they tried to just draw. They will need a lot of luck to make all of that happen, and it will also take a lot of luck for Manchester City if Bournemouth are to surprise them in this game. I predict that Manchester City will dominate the game, and Bournemouth will probably adopt a defensive strategy and only take advantage of counterattacks.

[Yogee]

....
Before this match Manchester City will faced Leipzig on champion league today and both of teams has been met in the beginning of season and Manchester City can easily win from Bournemouth with huge scores 4-0 and this time i am sure Manchester City without any problem can overcomes Bournemouth and the odds for this match has been provided

Bournemouth @10
Manchester City @1.28

As you can see Manchester City has low odds but we can't do anything because Bournemouth is weak team and they almost don't have any chances to win the match but for betting options over 2.5 goals probably good instead of Manchester City win and my predictions Bournemouth will lost at least with 3 goals margin or more conridering Bournemouth as the weakest defense team in premier league

Even the odds for over 2.5 goals @1.52 is not that attractive for this match. Going for City on handicap could be the better choice if you're that confident they will win by that goal margin. It's worth taking that risk. I also think that the bookmakers have been generous on this one.

@2.19 for -2
@2.75 for -2.5

You can also check the Asian handicap.

Maybe the reason why Cristiano Ronaldo couldn't perform well enough in Manchester United is the relationship between him and Erik Ten Hag we know Ronaldo is a famous superstar and he was shining well previously in manchester United so surly he had no respect for Tem Hag and obviously, Ten Hag is not a coach to accept this. That's why the only thing Ronaldo could do was leave Manchester United for another team. While after and when Ronaldo left this team Ten Hag could focus better than before and got better results.

Ten Hag didn't give him enough chance to perform because he already knows what Ronaldo performance is upto. Ten Hag didn't use Ronaldo much not because they were not in good relationship. Every decision of Ten Hag was to make the team improve and get better just as we can see how much the team have become better today. Every step Ten Hag took was just the best,  his concerned was about the team and not to give any player special treatment that will later on affect the team.

[AverageGlabella]

The odds have changed for the winner of the Premier League. Manchester City are favorites again with Arsenal 2nd. I wonder how much they dropped because of their recent losses. I still think Arsenal have a chance as long as they change their tactics. The attack is good but the defense is very bad. They need to change players or they might need to go to 5 at the back.

Comparing Ibrahimovic to Ronaldo is not fair towards Ibrahimovic. Ronaldo is a conceited guy who can't make fun of himself or feel joy for others when they are successful. Ibrahimovic is a showman who can very well laugh about himself, who jumps up from the bench when his team scores a goal, who raises his arms when someone else scores a goal, who never complains when he is sitting on the bench.

Ibrahimovic celebrates his teams successes more but they are very similar. Ronaldo and Ibrahimovic share a big ego and they think they are the best players on the field. A lot of the time they are the best players on the field but we have seen both players lash out when things are not going their way. Ronaldo only gets more criticism because he has recently been removed from Manchester United but Ibrahimovic has made mistakes in the past and has not always been the fun loving guy that memes portray him as. I have seen him stamp and hit other players on the field and Ronaldo has not done that as much as Ibrahimovic.

The conditions are very difficult for Bournemouth because indeed they will definitely focus only on defense when looking at the current condition of the team, especially Manchester City, who are definitely the favorites.
But indeed sometimes we also cannot underestimate the condition of a team like this. They can hold Newcastle and win against Wolves even if it is not comparable to Manchester City, but still they are also in a state of confidence and will definitely try to make this a draw.

Lol, Ronaldo's poor performance is not due to Erik ten Hag, but Ronaldo's performance has indeed deteriorated over time by itself. You can judge how Ronaldo's performance and contribution was when playing in Portugal during the World Cup, in fact when Portugal won big but Ronaldo was not played and Ronaldo only scored from a penalty kick at that time.

Not only that, you can also assess how Ronaldo's performance and contribution is at Al-Nassr at the moment, even though it is a league that is not very strong but Ronaldo still needs time to be able to score goals in every match. At least this proves that there is nothing wrong with Erik ten Hag for not playing Ronaldo. Because Ronaldo's performance has also slowly decreased, and Ronaldo is no longer able to compete at the highest level in Europe.

If you are so sure about City winning big, then you can bet on City to win -1 goal handicap at 1.73 odds or -2 goals handicap at 2.88 odds. As you can see, in this option, the odds become very attractive, much more interesting than when betting on the total. And I don't really think that City will be too tired to play in the Champions League to save energy here, so a big win is really possible.

A big win as City and over 2.5 goals would be great or only City to play 2.5 goals is a fine option but somehow risky. If you are sure City will win just go for the winning irrespective of the odds,trying to fish higher odds in one sure match makes it possible for one to make mistakes and end up losing the match.

I think the same. Manchester City has been playing really well and I think they will be able to make it through this one too.
Many people are supporting Manchester City this time which can be clearly seen in the odds as well.

I don’t think anyone considered the then poor performance of Manchester United to be the fault of Ten Hag. If I remember correctly, Manchester United was going through a bad spell before the arrival of Ten Hag. And now, Manchester United is doing very well. I think we could attribute some of that success to Ten Hag.

Ronaldo was a very good and talented player and even now that he’s a bit advanced in age, he’s still very much active and doing well. I just want to point out that all players, no matter how superb the person is, is subject to approval for game time from the coach. If the coach doesn’t need you, he just doesn’t need you.

I never know if Ronaldo is interested in becoming a successful coach in the future, or if he will retire as a celebrity or a model like Beckham. It's just a possibility about the future, but things like this are completely uncertain because we can't see the future. I just want to see him play, but unfortunately I'm not really interested in watching the Arab League, that's all.

For sure, since Ronaldo left Manchester United, I think the team's performance is much better now. The sour relationship with his former team was completely unexpected, and it has sparked his move to the Arab League. Ronaldo is the best, but he's not the only one.

The two of them had enough problems to destroy the relationship between Manchester United and Ronaldo, and this problem was over when Ronaldo was no longer at Manchester United, Ronaldo was happy at his new club, Al-Nassr FC, with very high fees, even higher than when at Manchester United. Luck is still on Ronaldo's side because, at a fairly old age, he still makes a lot of money from the world of football.

Tuchel was experienced coach for chelsea but todd was sacking him. Todd already made the worst decision for chelsea. As a new owner and he was making so many mistakes that were greatly affecting the club. Potter has been claimed to be the worst coach in EPL. Potter has recorded a very low win rate in EPL. Chelsea may go to the relegation zone if potter would not sacked as soon as possible. There are no improvements that happened in the club.

Hope you do know Thomas Tuchel hasn't won any champions league before he came to Chelsea so it wasn't like he was much of a winner instead the club made him win those title because it was in our DNA. We have won multiple titles and cup finals before his arrival and we'll do the same after his sacking. It mightn't be with the current coach because I'm beginning to get feed up with his excuses but Chelsea will bounce back up as we always do.  Sacking Thomas Tuchel wasn't the wrong decision, I think hiring Graham Potter was the wrong decision here. Both managers started well at the club but became awful due to their poor managerial decision making.

Thomas Tuchel refuse to make use of youths when he was around even though his prefer players weren't delivering results while graham Potter doesn't know how to use the talents he has. It seems he's been overwhelmed by all the star players as a manager is meant to get the best out of this players but he isn't. Imagine a coach like Zidane managing Chelsea football club, we'll be defeating every opponents like it's nothing.

[Avirunes]

City always puts a dominant display but recently they have been below those standards in my opinion. They played well against Arsenal but were back to it again with Forest game draw. City will be hoping to be on track again with and should win the game against Bournemouth easily but they have the CL game also today and lot of players will be tired after playing two games in a week so Bournemouth might have a chance if they play well. Also De Bruyne and Laporte are reported to be missing the CL game today due to illness and who knows they will be missing out the weekend's game also. So, City are favourites-yes, but usually weeks where they have to play two games are the ones where they most likely face surprises.

each coach sees well what is needed in the squad. releasing and buying players in the transfer market is something common. that's to get the squad the coach wants.
Ten Hag has already got what he wanted, and now United's performance is not bad either. even looks better. it is not easy to control many players with different thoughts to carry out the coach's tactics. Ten Hag's initial arrival at United has not been so good this season. and now Ten Hag is gradually answering fans' doubts.

[AakZaki]

The club should have known where they went wrong when signing Potter for the incredible talent at Chelsea.
I think there will be a change in the Chelsea coaching chair at the end of this season. and they can start next season better.
overall, the team's play is terrible, they look very lame even with good names in the squad.
The Club should think about this.

Potter is the choice of the new owner of chelsea, so they should have no regrets. From the background they should have understood, Potter didn't have a great history. He has no achievements so I've had doubts from the beginning that he came.  Today with new players den has ordained huge money, but they haven't gotten any good results. Of course the dismissal option is pretty good, there are many coach options that haven't worked. Pocethino, Tuchel, Zidane, Enrique, Loew these are the best options at the moment. Even though tuchel is an ex, I think he's got better.

AFC Bournemouth and Manchester City are going to lock horns on 25th February 2023. The match will be played in Vitality stadium which serves as a home to AFC Bournemouth. Manchester City will be looking forward to grabbing that league leaders title from Arsenal by defeating AFC Bournemouth. Meanwhile, AFC Bournemouth with a win over Wolves will march in with high morale to crush Manchester City’s title dream. As the table stands Manchester City is at the second spot in the EPL Table with 52 points onboard. With the good head to head record they have against the host team they might likely win this match.
