Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Sterbens]

It is official that Arsenal has lost two points today and they are very much under pressure from Manchester City who is 4 points behind them. Manchester City has one outstanding match which I am very sure they would win, that is to say that technically Manchester City is just one point behind Arsenal and while you check at the goal difference, Manchester City has more goals than Arsenal. This is very critical matter, but as an English football fan, I would want Arsenal to win the title for fairness.
They need to keep up, it is too late to give up.

In terms of appearance, Manchester City looks more stable than Arsenal. I see that from several matches Manchester City has always been able to win matches with a satisfying score, and on average Manchester City does not let its opponents break into the net. Arsenal won a draw against West Ham where West Ham can be said to be the weakest club this season with the relegation zone they are currently experiencing.

I think Manchester City will smile seeing this, in the near future Arsenal will face Southampton, if Arsenal can't win the game over Southampton and make the same mistakes as against West Ham then this is a big chance for Manchester City to catch up, before the two play for fighting for the title this season.

[rendravolt]

Having excelled first through 2 goals scored by Gabriel Jesus and Martin Odeegard did not make Arsenal feel safe enough. West ham was able to catch up with the first goal in the 33rd minute through a penalty scored by Benrahma and followed by the second goal scored by Bowen in the second half.

Arsenal continued to attack but they did not produce additional goals in the remainder of the second half and had to be willing to share points with West ham. The results were quite disappointing because Mikel Arteta's troops were targeting full points to keep away from the pursuit of Manchester City and it seems that Pep Guardiola is very happy with the results achieved by Arsenal in this match.

The gap between Arsenal and Man City is closing again... The interesting thing is that Man City's next game will be against Arsenal... If Arsenal lose, it's probably safe to say that Man City will be in first place... I wonder how Arsenal drew their last two games when they needed to pick up those points to widen the gap...

I was suprised with Arsenal performance today, before the match started I tough it will be a easy win for Arsenal, their performance was really nice in the first half of the match, they scored two goals in less than 15 minutes, I was thinking Arsenal already won the match, but things changed and the match ended as draw.

Arsenal is leading Manchester city with four points, but Manchester city is still having a match left which if they can win, then Arsenal will be ahead of them with just 1 points. I think it will be very difficult for Arsenal to win Manchester City in their next match, we can't compare Arsenal performance with Manchester city, it will be a tough match but am sure Manchester city will win. If Manchester city can win Arsenal, then the league belongs to Manchester city this season.

[yayayo]

Arsenal did not manage to win the game against West Ham United. 0-2 lead evaporated and it was suddenly 2-2. Now it will be really exciting in the battle for the title. I had expected Arsenal to make it 2-3, but that was no longer possible. Arsenal have lost a lot of points lately, but maybe they can recover. It is also questionable whether Manchester City will continue to win all games. Of course there is still a lead for Arsenal, but it was 8 points once and that big margin is gone now. That undoubtedly also creates pressure.

ya.ya.yo!

[FT] WHU 2 - 2 Arsenal

Again, Arsenal showed their inconsistency in the league, even this result is the same as the result of their previous match when Liverpool could hold them with a score of 2 - 2. If Saka could execute the penalty given by the referee, of course they would be farther from Manchester City. With this result they are only 3 points different from Manchester City, and if Manchester City manages to beat Arsenal in City's next match, I'm not sure they (Arsenal) still have a bigger chance of winning the EPL title.

A strange game and Arsenal will surely more scared now ahead the 26 april and the game in Manchester. City have two games before that, 1x Champions League against FC Bayern and FA Cup semi-final against Sheffield United. So they don’t have time to relax before the most important game of the season. City’s statistics are sensationally good. The last 10 games all won and the last game at home City lost on 12 November 2022, that was against FC Brentford 1:2 in the Premier League. I think we can bet your money on City on 26 april.

I agree, Arsenal's draw is another surprise. I missed this match from watching and just got this news. This team has 2 draws in a row and is only 4 points clear of Manchester City who have 1 more game to go. Arsenal have lost the advantage of the Premier League leader in the last two matches and give Manchester City chances to overtake them. Badly. Has Arsenal started to fizzle out and Manchester City will still get the cup this season?  How successful everything has been at Arsenal until recently. It's a pity.

[Masplanc]

An interesting turn of event for Arsenal and West Ham United.  Saka gets to miss a crucial opportunity with a penalty to have give his team a 2 goals lead once more which would have in some way, demoralised the West Ham United but he missed.

Too bad for Arsenal, to me they have lost the premier league already. This game was their opportunity to maintain their pressure to win the league, Saka was one of the major problems that Arsenal had, from the penalty miss to the stingy play. Arsenal will struggle from here forward to try to win every game, and they will be more under pressure when they play Manchester City.

If arsenal had scored in the penalty it would have been impossible for West ham United to draw the game, that penalty would have been the Victory of the game. Arsenal were so lucky to lead the game early with 2 goals but they couldn't maintain their lead.  This lose might cause serious tension for arsenal in other game's.

The results were quite disappointing because Mikel Arteta's troops were targeting full points to keep away from the pursuit of Manchester City and it seems that Pep Guardiola is very happy with the results achieved by Arsenal in this match.

The failure of Bukayo Saka's penalty greatly affected the team's performance and it was a pity after Bukayo Saka failed to execute the penalty that Arsenal's game declined.
This result has increasingly made Arsenal falter at the top of the standings, I think at the end of a season like this the mentality of Arsenal's players is starting to decline because they are inhabited by many young players and that is very natural.

It would be a shame if Arsenal could not win the Premier League this season because they had led the standings since week one, and it must be admitted that Man City this season was pretty good.
Currently, there is still a chance for Arsenal to become champions, but realistically if we look at the performance of the two teams that are currently competing with Arsenal and Manchester CIity, of course the percentage of Man City in being able to become champions is far greater.

Arsena was so dominant in the early stage that was almost to easy for them a gaol from Jesus and Martin turned the whole atmosphere amongst the home support was almost like a funeral imagine west ham fans working out but football is an emotional game and as such anything can still happen frankly arsenal were two goal up and it felt like the game was already won. It may not be over yet for arsenal title chase but it was a bad day simply because was a team waiting to be beating and should have been beaten by arsenal

[hahay]

It looks like Arsenal are under pressure at this moment because they failed to gain three points in the away match against West Ham and also, although in the next match Arsenal will only play against a team that is at the bottom of the Premiere League table. But I think Southampton is not a weak team and not a team that is easy to beat, so Arsenal will still play with great efforts.

Even worse, after that match Arsenal played away against Manchester City, and in the next two mach Arsenal will play against Chelsea and also Newcastle. Also, with a gap of 4 points at this moment, then of course Arsenal's position is still very likely to be taken over by Manchester City, because Manchester City also still has 1 match postponed that has not been played.

[Zackgeno96]

Arsenal are currently not as lucky as they often were in the rest of the season. And that luck ensures that they would have won those matches otherwise. Missing a penalty doesn't help, of course. According to the bookies, Man City is now the favorite again, because they will probably miss almost everything. We can therefore conclude that City's catch-up race has been successful. I don't know yet how things will go between Newcastle and United, but this seems to be a dream year for Newcastle United. They will make it to European football anyway, the only question is in which competition. Maybe the CL? Very real chance.

[indah rezqi]

Look at the result now, it is 2:2 and Saka missed a penalty in minute 52, that should have been 3:1. Currently they are only 4 points ahead of Manchester City in the league and City have one game less, so the chances are almost 50/50. West Ham shoot more times on the goal than Arsenal, maybe they will score another one. They are more than 20 minutes to play, something will happen.

Arsenal really felt pressure throughout the match today. They realized that Manchester City had come to threaten their position at the top, which was very evident by how agitated Arteta was on the sidelines. Arsenal failed to win the match against West Ham not because they played badly, but West Ham really played very well today.

Thus, Arsenal lost 4 points in their last 2 matches which then gave Manchester City a big chance to catch Arsenal. Manchester City has 1 match less than Arsenal, whereas if Manchester City wins then the two teams will only be 1 point apart. Of course Arsenal's title race is getting tougher, but of course it's very interesting to wait until the end of the season.

If Arsenal lose, it's probably safe to say that Man City will be in first place... I wonder how Arsenal drew their last two games when they needed to pick up those points to widen the gap...

What occurred between Manchester City and Liverpool over the previous three seasons is likely to occur between Arsenal and Manchester City this time around.
It's terrible that an 8-point lead over Manchester City has suddenly shrunk to a 2-point lead with only roughly 8 games remaining. Arsenal must not anticipate to be leading Manchester City by 2 points and expect them to stay ahead of them till the end of the season without Manchester City overthrowing them for the premier league title, as they did against Liverpool in the previous three seasons.

Arsenal's draw against West ham is very profitable for Manchester City because the distance in their points is getting closer so it's easy for Manchester City to shift Arsenal at the top of the standings, Arsenal's meeting with Manchester City will be decisive to lead at the top of the standings and determine who deserves to win the EPL in this season, I believe manchester city will win the EPL this season as well as CL as its main goal.

Arsenal should have been able to win if only Saka had not failed to execute the penalty, I know it is not easy to score a penalty kick because it requires high concentration, I think he will continue to dream of this mistake clearly visible at the end of the match he seemed to regret the failure, Arsenal must be able to learning from these 2 matches with a draw is a better evaluation in the next match against Southampton next week after that Arsenal will face manchester city.

Arsenal must not anticipate to be leading Manchester City by 2 points and expect them to stay ahead of them till the end of the season without Manchester City overthrowing them for the premier league title, as they did against Liverpool in the previous three seasons.

It is a 4 point lead that Arsenal have over City, but Pep Guardiola's men have a game in hand, and a game to come against Arsenal on the 26th of this month, City are in a position they love to be in, and that is with their destiny in their own hands, if they win all their games from now until the end of the season, they are EPL champions for the third time in a row.

Having said that, i believe Arsenal have bottled it, the pressure has gotten to them, to throw away a two goal lead in two consecutive games against Liverpool and West Ham respectively is pretty bad and evident that the team is feeling the heat. City are going to win the league, this team know how to get the job done in EPL title races, it is going to be painful for Arsenal fans, spending this long on the summit and not winning it in the end, but that is going to be the reality i'm afraid.

[Prestongold]

An interesting turn of event for Arsenal and West Ham United.  Saka gets to miss a crucial opportunity with a penalty to have give his team a 2 goals lead once more which would have in some way, demoralised the West Ham United but he missed.

This game was their opportunity to maintain their pressure to win the league, Saka was one of the major problems that Arsenal had, from the penalty miss to the stingy play. Arsenal will struggle from here forward to try to win every game, and they will be more under pressure when they play Manchester City.

If arsenal had scored in the penalty it would have been impossible for West ham United to draw the game, that penalty would have been the Victory of the game. Arsenal were so lucky to lead the game early with 2 goals but they couldn't maintain their lead.  This lose might cause serious tension for Arsenal in other games.

The clash with the hammer times at a tough time of the season to be playing teams towards the bottom of the table who tends to pick up more point and try to avoid the drop Arsenal were unable to rediscover their grove and rarely threatened the west ham two-point drop leaves the gunners four points clear at the top. I hope they extend their lead when they host Southampton next weekend before the massive meeting at Etihad

The match between Arsenal and West Ham has been drawn. I thought Arsenal would win this match. Arsenal managed to score two goals in the first few minutes of the game. West Ham then went on to attack Arsenal brilliantly and in the closing stages they managed to pull back two goals. I will not applaud Arsenal in this match, but rather West Ham.

EPL competition this season is the same as the competition between Liverpool and Man City and at the end of the season, Man City won by only 1 point from Liverpool at that time. Right now it's not much different, Man city continues to stick tightly to Arsenal, especially Arsenal wasted the opportunity with a draw in their last 2 matches. Man City is superior on goal difference from Arsenal, so we will soon see Man City at the top.

[cozytrade]

The game between Nottm Forest vs Man United in Premier League is now close to halftime. Man United is still leading by 1 goal. Man United scored 1 goal in 36 minutes of the game. Shots on target Man United took 4 shots. 1 goal among them.  Succeeded in doing so. Forest could not take shots on target till now. The game is going very well between the two teams. After the halftime of the game, all the fans are waiting to see which team will win.

I was so certain Arsenal was going to win against West Ham. They allowed 3 points slipped through their fingers. When they scored the two goals I thought the game was over and west pulled one in. They got a penalty and Saka failed to convert it. The little chance Westham had, they found the back of the net. Arsenal has just increase the pressure on themselves.
