Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Jatiluhung]

Liverpool are not fully in optimal condition. because even though they played well today, maybe in the next game they will play badly again. What always amazes me is that Liverpool always play very well when they face strong teams in the Premier League. but when faced with a team that is not too strong, it is as if Liverpool have lost their strength. but in this match I also agree that Liverpool's game was better than Arsenal, especially in the second half. but I still regret that the shooting accuracy of the Liverpool players is very bad. and M. Salah also failed to take advantage of very good opportunities several times.

You are right. Liverpool's squad is strong but they are not in a good position. The main reason for this is that their performance is completely erratic. They play well in one match, and in the very next match, they perform poorly against weaker opponents. Their performance against Arsenal was quite good. Even then they can't win. However, if the Liverpool team is able to maintain the consistency of their stable performance, then they will be able to earn points in the upcoming matches. However, I have no confidence in the performance of Liverpool's players. They cannot maintain the stability of performance. And so I abstain from betting on Liverpool matches.

same thing with me. I also rarely bet on Liverpool matches. except for a small bet. because of their inconsistency in maintaining their best performance, they really always make all the matches they face more difficult to predict. and well actually if Liverpool can maintain their consistency since the start of the season then I think now Liverpool will be fighting for the top ranking with Man City and Arsenal. but unfortunately Liverpool lost their consistency even since the beginning of the season started. and the same thing happened to Chelsea. but Liverpool is certainly not that bad when compared to Chelsea which really makes me concerned about the club.

[EarnOnVictor]

Next time I see Arsenal and Manchester City both have comfortable games to play. West Ham is an easy target for Arsenal to beat. You know that Newcastle demolished them in an away game recently by 5-1. It was quite surprising to me though as I wasn't expecting that big of a score at the end. Arsenal can also get a decent win against this vulnerable West Ham.

It is exactly the same for Manchester City. Leicester are even a worse team than West Ham this season. They are in the relegation zone and their recent form is terrible. There is nothing holding Manchester City back from destroying them home.

I think that Leicester City will not have any chance vs Manchester City and the latter could win big, at least with 2 goals difference tho.
For Arsenal, they ruined a game and they will not repeat it, the round after the mess was important. City will win and Arsenal will have to get along and win vs West Ham. WHU are quite good team even though they were hard to beat, this season they weren't at their best form. Gunners are way favourite to win here.

Their conditions are quite different in this regard, especially seeing Manchester City's positive record in contrast to the results Leicester have received in their last few matches.
It looks like it will be an easy bet because it is very complicated for Leicester even for Draw. but on the other hand I expect a bad result for Manchester City actually in this match even though this is something that will definitely be very difficult.

I believe it will be an easy win for Manchester City. Leicester have had back-to-back defeats lately and their situation is not looking good. They are in the relegation zone and this is a ranking they are not used to. Although the coach changes, the results remain the same.

Humanly speaking, Saturday is another +3 points for Man City as I don't know how possibly Leicester City will be able to beat them. The odds of this game are high for Leicester City on betting platforms as no one would speculate differently. It's possible that Man City scores between 2-4 goals, while Leicester City might score between 0-1 goals as they would find it difficult to beat the defence of Man City.

It's such a match that is worth betting on, Man City is desperate at this time that Arsenal has given them another opportunity to fight for the cup.

[Docnaster]

The only good possibility for Arsenal is that if City beats Bayern easily, and gets tired while doing that, then maybe there is a potential that they would be tired for the league game. I mean City can beat Leicester city with their eyes closed so there shouldn't be a problem but if there is no problem like that might as well at least a bit more tired so the possibility increases just a bit. However, even better part is that if they keep going further in the UCL, they will play a lot more games and they will get tired more and more, which could lead to at least losing points somewhere around the end which could give Arsenal the advantage as well, that would end up being better.

I don't like the discussion when we talk about top professional players becoming tired because they had to play two important games within five days or so. The medical and physical care they receive and all the professional people around them will make sure that there is enough time and treatment for the players to fully recover. Injuries are always a risk, but these guys are trained for playing matches every three to four days. You could argue that they Premier League teams even have a physical advantage sometimes because they are used to it. You could probably twist it either way if you wanted. But being tired is no excuse that Guardiola would let count. Manchester City's bench is also not the worst.

Talking about Arsenal's advantage over Manchester City, I think wether City wins their match against Thomas Tuchel's Bayern Munich or not, there's no way they're not gonna leave that match without fatigue of some regular players. Arsenals players will be resting when City will be playing in the two legged encounter.
But one thing we shouldn't forget is Manchester City's manager is no other person but Pep Guardiola and he knows how to rotate his squad but no matter how he tries to keep them fresh and fit, Bayern Munich games will leave some of them battered

Arsenal are going to use the frustration from their game against Liverpool to destroy West ham United. West ham have to play in the conference league that week before facing Arsenal in weekend and I’m sure they’ll attack the tournament with strong sides and will not look to necessarily rest in these midweek games. Out of the match with Gent, they’ll play Arsenal. Arsenal have only the EPL to play in and they should have enough rest, so they’ll face West ham with fresh legs.

Arsenal winning west ham united is a guarantee, Arsenal don't find it hard beating smaller teams that they should be winning this season and that's what have given them so much point. The situation that  gives Arsenal some issue is when they're playing bigger sides like Manchester city or united and as we just saw them in last game drawing against Liverpool.

If Arsenal could defeat this big teams then they would had been sure of winning the league already. Manchester city on the other hand can defeat the big teams very easy but find it difficult to win clubs you'll expect them to destroy. West Ham are the perfect team Arsenal needs to build some believe again.

Although Liverpool's recent performances may have been hit and miss it's crucial to keep in mind that they are a great team with a successful past. The team's perseverance and tenacity are demonstrated by their ability to recover from setbacks and compete at the top level. As supporters we should continue to have faith in Liverpool capacity to turn things around and continue to play well for the rest of the season. Liverpool has the capacity to astound even the most doubtful of critics and win their future games with the help of their devoted fan base and the guidance of their skilled manager.

I think even though the possibility is big but in this case I don't feel it will be easy for Arsenal because regardless of what West ham is still one of the clubs that is a bit unpredictable in terms of performance.

Arsenal cannot underestimate them because if that is the case then the conditions are not good for them. Now it depends on Arsenal's focus because even if the points can be won but when they underestimate and think this will be 3 easy points I think they will be wrong with this.

Manchester city on the other hand can defeat the big teams very easy but find it difficult to win clubs you'll expect them to destroy. West Ham are the perfect team Arsenal needs to build some believe again.

They have four big games against some good teams in terms of their squad or their form which are City, Chelsea, Newcastle and Brighton. We need to win all of these in order to keep ourselves in title race. With Saliba injury, thing doesn't looks good but Holding have been performing well so far. Still we have been conceding goals which is a slight concern for us. At this point, I hope City drop some points before we face them as it would ease slight pressure in my opinion.

At least Arsenal have two matches with a team that is not too strong which can be a big opportunity for Arsenal to get full points in both matches. And yes it is true that Arsenal also need to grow more confidence in their game against West Ham and the following week against Southampton. because after that they will face a difficult match again, namely against Man City who also hosted the match. Arsenal must not lose points until they meet Man City. because Man City also looks like it will continue to win matches before meeting Arsenal. because the opponents that Man City will face in the two matches before meeting Arsenal are the matches against Leicester City and Brighton. maybe brighton can make it a little difficult for Man City but still Man City has a chance to win in that match.

But one thing we shouldn't forget is Manchester City's manager is no other person but Pep Guardiola and he knows how to rotate his squad but no matter how he tries to keep them fresh and fit, Bayern Munich games will leave some of them battered

The win or loss against bayern will not give city an advantage or disadvantage. I should remind you if UCL was just UCL. It will never give an impact on the club in the domestic league. The only thing that must be kept is about the stamina of players.
Manchester city will be facing so many matches soon. City must keep its player to be healthy and try to make sure that the key players will not be feeling exhausted. Arsenal is only in advantage if the club EPL as the last competition that can be won by the club.
That being said that if arsenal will always be fully prepared compared with manchester city to face the match to the match in EPL.  

This time manchester city is focusing on the UCL match that will come soon. It will be facing one of the strongest teams in EPL. Bayern may able to use the second line up against leicester city in the upcoming match. UCL is a very important trophy for manchester city right now.

Pep Guardiola says he wants to win the Uefa Champions League 'a lot', but reiterates that he is not perfect and there are other teams that want to win it as well. Manchester City face Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, with the first leg taking place at the Etihad Stadium. Guardiola has managed to reach the quarter-finals of the competition for six years in a row, but winning the competition still manages to elude the Spaniard during his City tenure. The man looking to knock him out of the competition this time is former Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel, whose Chelsea team beat Manchester City in the 2020/21 final

You can even watch video how he wants UCL more than EPL

Arsenal have key players in the team, Saliba injured would affect the defendline, however they got Gabriel and Zinchenko who are experience and knows how to tackle the ball from their opponents. Gunners fixtures is tough and they will struggle to grab three points in these upcoming games. Knot a draw tie against Liverpool, that game was supposed to be a confident victory for gunners but they allowed Liverpool to put more on them in the second halve. More talks about City, Chelsea, Newcastle and Brighton. Definitely a game we wouldn't missed, afterall there's enough top actions in each of the game.

[tazmantasik]

Aston Villa will host Newcastle at Villa Park in Saturday's match, interestingly the two teams are in the same trend, Unai Emery has succeeded enough in lifting Aston Villa so that they can be in a temporary position of 6 and Newcastle are still with 5 consecutive wins and are the only team with the fewest goals conceded.
Even though they will have an away game, Newcastle is still the favorite here, but of course, it is not easy for them to be able to get 3 points because Aston Villa is motivated to maintain a good record in the last few matches, because of the last 8 matches Villa have only lost to Arsenal and drawn with West Ham the rest they are capable to win even when they have to face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. I thought it would be a draw with both teams scoring but with such good opposition, Villa will need to work hard to break through.

Under Unai Emery, Aston Villa success back to the top standing position from relegation zone until have 9 points remaining from Champion League spot standing. Current standing, Aston Villa have chance for Champion League or Europe League ticket next season depend achievement on few matches left. Next match against Newcastle United and opportunity make fewest points difference left with Spurs, Manchester United and Newcastle United. Have good record from Aston Villa after winning 7 of 8 games seems Unai Emery can continues with unbeaten record in Primer League.

The situation that  gives Arsenal some issue is when they're playing bigger sides like Manchester city or united and as we just saw them in last game drawing against Liverpool.

There are no guarantees in the EPL, of course Arsenal are the favorites for victory in that game, but they are not guaranteed to be victorious. Arsenal drew to Liverpool and the players were visibly disappointed, it looks like a game that could have dampened their confidence a little bit, but we'll see if that is the case when they play West Ham this weekend. Having said that, the title race is definitely going down to the wire, both City and Arsenal now have their destiny in their own hands, win all your games and you are champions, we'd have to find out who can do it, or who'll get the most points from now until the end of the season.

Arsenal drew to Liverpool and the players were visibly disappointed, it looks like a game that could have dampened their confidence a little bit, but we'll see if that is the case when they play West Ham this weekend.

If you are Arsenal players, you would feel very disappointed after scoring two goals first and ended the match with only one point. I don't think Arsenal actually thought they can score two goals too early like that but they also did not think that they would waste that advantage too easily like that.

Having said that, the title race is definitely going down to the wire, both City and Arsenal now have their destiny in their own hands, win all your games and you are champions, we'd have to find out who can do it, or who'll get the most points from now until the end of the season.

Both Arsenal and Manchester City have to play to win in every of remaining matches as they know that their competitor is very strong and can win all of remaining matches. Arsenal will aim at the match with Manchester City with a biggest task is having a draw which is enough for them to maintain 3 point difference against Manchester City.

That is a big test and big risk for Arsenal but if they succeed, they are really deserved to be a new champion of Premier League. I really believe that Arsenal will not let Manchester City beat them down too easily especially they are not too far from the title.

Either way, Arsenal must remain vigilant in the next game against West Ham. With yesterday's draw against Liverpool, Arsenal players will be required not to draw again. West Ham may not have performed optimally in its last few matches, but because Arsenal is in front of it, inevitably West Ham will make a few changes in terms of defense.

There is still a chance for the London cannon to widen the distance from the pursuit of Man City. So you could say that the difference between the two cannot be said to be completely safe. If you look at West Ham's last match against Arsenal, the results can be seen easily.

[Leviathan.007]

Everyone was obviously shocked by Arsenal's tenacity, it has been a while since they provided their fans with this kind of entertainment. Since then, Arsenal's performance has improved to the point where they have been a treat for Manchester City. As a result, my prediction that Arsenal will win the Premier League is still very strong. The most shocking game was Crystal Palace vs. Leeds, it wasn't just a regular soccer match but ended 5:0 Such attacks from Crystal Palace were not what I had anticipated.

The draw between Liverpool and Arsenal has reversed the chances and the bookies no longer consider Arsenal as the favourites:

Manchester city 1.75

Arsenal 2.05

Arsenal have a slightly more difficult end to the season, plus the bookmakers assume that City will win the head-to-head match, so Arsenal is already an underdog for them. The bookmakers are often right but I hope this is not the case - if City gets the results the bookies think it will be too perfect for them. It doesn't happen like that.

It's not right t say Arsenal is not going to win the title this season just because of the draw they had recently against Liverpool however they could even lose this game but Liverpool was in a good form and they were playing perfectly I don't think if Arsenal should ways win all the games, there is the same situation for Manchester City and they lose points sometimes but still we can't say if Manchester City higher chance or not.

Arsenal managed to draw against a super Liverpool in the second half that with that type of game play would have beaten any team and West Ham is not the same as a raging Liverpool in front of their home supporters,I was watching the game and I had Arsenal to win but I immediately saw since the end of first half that they would most probably draw as a minimum and put a live bet on Liverpool win or draw which came true.

Now against West Ham I don't think a team like Arsenal fighting to be Champions would have problems to win as West Ham is not that consistent and against stronger teams they not a single good result,for Arsenal it is all about their encounter with City and Newcastle that will decide this year title.

Arsenal are going to use the frustration from their game against Liverpool to destroy West ham United. West ham have to play in the conference league that week before facing Arsenal in weekend and I’m sure they’ll attack the tournament with strong sides and will not look to necessarily rest in these midweek games. Out of the match with Gent, they’ll play Arsenal. Arsenal have only the EPL to play in and they should have enough rest, so they’ll face West ham with fresh legs.

IMO, actually if we review the Liverpool vs Arsenal match, there was something wrong with the decision that Arteta took. Supposedly, Arteta introduced several substitutes to respond to what Klopp did in the second half. if only Arteta didn't push his players too hard, and did the same as Klopp did in the 60th minute by substituting some players for fresher players. that way, Arsenal will not experience so much pressure in the second half. at least, Arteta can overcome when his players have lost a lot of energy and replace them with players who are fresher. unfortunately, Arteta did it in the 80+ minute. going forward, I hope Arteta can correct what his team lacks. in particular, the role of Rob Holding which is really badly played.

Talking about the West Ham vs Arsenal match, on paper these two teams have quite a significant gap. both in terms of standings ranking, the quality of the players, also referring to the H2H history of these two teams. so, this match should not be a big problem for Arteta's squad to get three points. but, we'll see later.

[gabbie2010]

If Arsenal could defeat this big teams then they would had been sure of winning the league already. Manchester city on the other hand can defeat the big teams very easy but find it difficult to win clubs you'll expect them to destroy. West Ham are the perfect team Arsenal needs to build some believe again.

They have four big games against some good teams in terms of their squad or their form which are City, Chelsea, Newcastle and Brighton. We need to win all of these in order to keep ourselves in title race. With Saliba injury, thing doesn't looks good but Holding have been performing well so far. Still we have been conceding goals which is a slight concern for us. At this point, I hope City drop some points before we face them as it would ease slight pressure in my opinion.

Truly Hodling hasn't perform badly since he came on for injured Saliba, however Arsenal needed a substitute for White at the right back it's was obvious when White was booked in their last match against Liverpool he played with cautions and  to avoid sending off and couldn't launch an attack alongside Saka because he was equally tired, unfortunately there isn't any replacement for him because Tomiyasu who ought to have come in was also injured, I think this another area Arteta needed to address to guarantee a better performance as the team is preparing to play a more formidable opponents like Man City, Chelsea and Newcastle there shouldn't be any room for complacency to avoid dropping of some points.

[Sterbens]

It's not right t say Arsenal is not going to win the title this season just because of the draw they had recently against Liverpool however they could even lose this game but Liverpool was in a good form and they were playing perfectly I don't think if Arsenal should ways win all the games, there is the same situation for Manchester City and they lose points sometimes but still we can't say if Manchester City higher chance or not.

The season is still a few weeks away, and getting a draw with Liverpool is not so influential for the leaders of the standings. There are still a few games for Arsenal, and I believe Arsenal will remain at the top of the table. The difference of 6 points with Manchester City is not so bad, next week Arsenal will face West Ham where Arsenal should be able to easily win the game against this team in the relegation zone.
 
Against a weak team, it won't be too dangerous for Arsenal and I'll just wait for the match between Arsenal and Manchester City because it will be very tense when the two giants fight for the title this season.

[asriloni]

Although Liverpool's recent performances may have been hit and miss it's crucial to keep in mind that they are a great team with a successful past. The team's perseverance and tenacity are demonstrated by their ability to recover from setbacks and compete at the top level.

As far as i can see that if liverpool is always doing so well. The problem is in the defensive line. So far, salah is always doing so well. Liverpool would able to get draw against arsenal which is a team that is still on fire right now.
That was proving how capable liverpool to compete with the big clubs in EPL. The problem is so many blunders that are very often made by liverpool's players need to be fixed.

As supporters we should continue to have faith in Liverpool capacity to turn things around and continue to play well for the rest of the season. Liverpool has the capacity to astound even the most doubtful of critics and win their future games with the help of their devoted fan base and the guidance of their skilled manager.

I think that for people or fans who have been analyzing the performance from liverpool carefully and i can say that if liverpool's problem was on its defenders. I just say this based on what i have seen from the previous meetings of liverpool in EPL. The inconsistency of liverpool's defenders are the main problem that needs to be fixed as soon as possible. I think that if you have been watching the previous meeting against arsenal carefully and you would have seen some mistakes that already made by van dijk that was giving free space for gabrial to concede the second goal against liverpool.
