Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Sterbens]

Manchester United has one match left than Newcastle United on 3rd standings awhile with two points remaining, winning last postponed match automatically United will move to 3rd standings but if fail not guarantee with Manchester United finish on 3rd placed. However Manchester United on 3rd position is not safe because Aston  Villa and Tottenham  Hotspur left 6 points with 5 matches later. Next games, against Aston Villa is the moment for Manchester United if want top fourth standing or will loss chance because Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur chance for Champion League spot standing is not close.

Two points difference with Newcastle in my opinion this is not too bad for Manchester United. In the last few matches Manchester United has looked quite good, having quite a lot of matches remaining, maybe this can be the capital to be able to shift Newcastle to third in the standings. I hope Ten Hag can immediately improve his team's performance, Ten Hag needs great players to be able to guard their back line because, from a defense perspective, Manchester United is very easy for opponents to penetrate. In the next match against Aston Villa at Old Trafford Stadium, in my opinion, Manchester United must be extra vigilant because some rumors say that Unai Emery is ready to surprise. So far Aston Villa has never been beaten in its last five matches.

[Mr.suevie]

There are many things that must be evaluated by Erik Ten Hag to make Manchester United able to compete on the top of the Premier League standings and other tournaments. Apart from the poor quality of his players, Ten Hag also had to self-reflect because some of his decisions actually hurt the team.

In the match against Tottenham, Ten Hag should have had to bring home full points, because a 2-0 lead allowed them to control the game. However, his carelessness and untimely rotation of players caused everything to fall apart. This is not the only time this has happened, in the previous few matches he also often made unnecessary mistakes, even being eliminated in the Europa League was also a factor.

The Man Utd match with Tottenham Hotspur proved that the snubbing of Erik Ten Hag by Spurs wasn't to be regretted any time soon. The first half winning was a perfect time to seal the victory but being that Ten Hag have proven overtime that he can't withhold the winning spot. This further shows that the Spurs management can hold their chest to say that having snubbed him earlier from handling it's manager rank due to his lack of charisma have been proven in last night's match where he had a clear path to victory but ruined it by making a few tactless substitutions which caused Man Utd's defeat.

Sometimes I don’t really blame Ten Hag with the substitutions. Manchester United were winning and had the game well under control. they have lots of games and also premier league they have all to play for. So him resting the big players is logical and understandable. He expected the subs to just to manage the game. But they failed him, they couldn’t. His subs totally changed the dynamics of the game.

I think that is very unprofessional of him because its has cost him two loses, he did same thing which warranted sevilla to come back and grasp a draw in the first leg of the Europa league tie and now same thing again with Tottenham knowing fully well that Tottenham are a dangerous team and are in the top four battle with them in the league. I think he should secure one win victory first before thinking of another game which he has not even played yet.

[Furious 7]

Unknowingly, this is actually a loss that Erik ten Hag has to pay. Moreover, even though he was already in the lead, he shouldn't have been too hasty in bringing in a substitute starting in the 61st minute. Erik ten Hag should have been more patient before losing control of his game and in fact this change resulted in a lack of stability in either the midfield or the back line. This is an important lesson for any coach when he is superior he should be able to maintain the existing stability first and there is no need to rush to make changes in strategy.

In the end, Ten Hag's main problem remained the same as when they faced Sevilla in the last quarter-final. He was too hasty in substitutions
Eriksen came off and substitutes like Fred and Malacia came in this match leaving them a bit disorganized in continuing the good trend that had been established since the first half.
Indeed, in this case it may have been intended to give space to the young players they have, but on several occasions they have continued to fail when given the opportunity, even in this match.

I think that is very unprofessional of him because its has cost him two loses, he did same thing which warranted sevilla to come back and grasp a draw in the first leg of the Europa league tie and now same thing again with Tottenham knowing fully well that Tottenham are a dangerous team and are in the top four battle with them in the league. I think he should secure one win victory first before thinking of another game which he has not even played yet.

This is what I think in the current state.
It's not wrong to give a chance but when you fail many times I think Ten Hag should have had something wiser than to keep trying.
The big difference between the core and reserve players made Manchester United lose momentum which made it difficult, although in this match they were still fortunate to be able to bring 1 point, but still this is regrettable because they were able to bring 3 points before.

Agree. And by the way, it's far from a fact that if Ten Hag hadn't made these substitutions, the result would have been different - perhaps because of the hardest calendar of games, the players simply don't have the strength to play at a high pace for all 90 minutes. And by the way, I don’t see any reason to consider this result unsuccessful - United did not lose, and since they have a gigantic advantage over those who are catching up, nothing threatens their place in the top 4.

Erik Ten Hag was having a beautiful season before their elimination from the UEFA Europa League competition. They've been a shadow of the Manchester United side that claimed the Caraboa Cup few months ago.
Injury for a fact played a major part in the diminishing of the teams performance but I think Manchester United could have done better. They look set to finish the season in the top four of the league table but they can as well win more matches to round the season

Manchester United have performed far better than last season,  I don't really blame Manchester united for their backsliding in performance in their recent games which I understand the main cause is due to injuries from their some of their key players. No matter the challenge of Manchester United right now, Manchester United had a great performance,  impressive this season. It is still  possible for them to maintain top 4 position to be in Champions league next season.

In today's Southampton vs Bournemouth match of the Premier League, Bournemouth won the match by scoring 1 goal. Both teams tried hard to score before halftime. But between the two teams, Bournemouth succeeded in scoring 1 goal. If we look at the point table, Bournemouth  Now the points table is at number 14. And Southampton is at number 20. Southampton team is very weak for which everyone is below. So in this match everyone thought that Bournemouth team had a chance to win and Bournemouth won the match by 1 goal.

So far Aston Villa has never been beaten in its last five matches.

Seeing that Manchester United are ranked 4th and two points apart from Newcaste is very sad, even the match with Tottenham which started with MU advantage ended in a draw, the disappointment of the fans and from MU for failing to win with Tottenham, it seems MU players have lost their focus on second round. They also lost their cool in the half by losing their composure to find space, to hold on to the ball, to get past their pressure.
And hopefully in the next match MU can change and can shift Newcattle in the third standings.

I wasn't too surprised by Manchester United's draw at Tottenham, because they had previously suffered an embarrassing defeat at Liverpool. The draw that Manchester United got was very reasonable in my opinion considering that Tottenham is also a team that is not easy to beat.
An additional point does not make Manchester United lose its position, they need to maintain a minimum performance in the next four matches to ensure a ticket to the Champions League.

Wasn't the decline in Manchester United's performance due to the defeat against Sevilla and the addition of several mistakes made by Harry Maguire, because the defeat in this match was a crushing blow for Erik ten Hag and the squad, because they could not withstand the onslaught of the Sevilla player who played well in the match, Erik ten Hag must get rid of Harry Maguire and look for defenders who are really tough to help some of Manchester United's current defenders, such as Lisandro Martínez, Raphaël Varane, in my opinion both of them have not helped Manchester United's defense enough this season, even in some of their important matches held to a draw and even had to swallow goals from the opposing team, at least there must be a significant overhaul for Manchester United in the future to anticipate the occurrence of injured players...

[Leviathan.007]

Football is a game of two halves. Manchester United dominated in the first half and were able to score. They were able to take control of Tottenham’s midfield and had a higher possession. They had a clear plan to come and win but Tottenham also wanted a some points and they had the second half to themselves. This is the second time Manchester United have blown away a 2-goal lead. They’re doing this way to often. They play well first half and then become terrible in the second half. It's crazy that they’re dropping silly point when they need it more to maintain their position in the top 4.

actually this result is quite fair for the two teams who are struggling to get into the top 4 of the standings but it is a bit unfortunate for Manchester United who had won 2 goals in the first half but the match had to end in a draw, actually in the second half Manchester United did not play so bad instead It was Tottenham who started to rise to match Manchester United's game in the second half so they managed to equalize and Manchester United's back line was still the weak point in this match.

Yes, Manchester United still played well in the second half. It's just that Manchester United did not adapt to the change in strategy made by Tottenham in the second half. So in the second half Tottenham looked better. And basically I appreciate the game of these two teams. and well this draw is deserved for this one match. both teams presented an interesting game.

I was expecting to see Manchester United winning this game easily because they were playing against a team with new coach and unstable situation we coudln't expect more from Totenham while Mancshter United started the game very well and in the beginning of the game when Sancho scoredthe first goal I was thgking Mancshter United can even win the game after scoring many goals while in the second half still Mansuter United were performing well but this time Totenham usedthe goals opportunities better than Manchester United.

Arsenal lost focus in the title race by not taking their important previous four matches serious

Like three matches played by Arsenal before playing with Manchester city, Arsenal where reserving most of his players, all his target was against Manchester City,  so he didn't want to misuse his players, which have lead him to his current failure, Arteta couldn't even win the Manchester city he has been reserving his players against, and the once you should have taken serous which will help you, you draw all the matches. If Arsenal won their match against Liverpool, west ham, Southampton and lose to Manchester city, they will still have hope that they can win the league.

All their good effort in the beginning of the league has been useless since they won't be able to win the league.

I think that's just the most painful part, after performing well from being to the ending, they made their fans have hope that they are going to win the league this season, but when they are having few matches left, they started misbehaving, now everyone already lose hope in them.

[X-ray]

In today's Southampton vs Bournemouth match of the Premier League, Bournemouth won the match by scoring 1 goal. Both teams tried hard to score before halftime. But between the two teams, Bournemouth succeeded in scoring 1 goal. If we look at the point table, Bournemouth  Now the points table is at number 14. And Southampton is at number 20. Southampton team is very weak for which everyone is below. So in this match everyone thought that Bournemouth team had a chance to win and Bournemouth won the match by 1 goal.

This match was very boring. Soton and bourne were only making 4 shots on target in total but bourne was so lucky in this match compared with soton. The ball is always at the middle. A good result for bourne caused by it really needs three points right now. Soton may try its luck in upcoming match. Soton will be actually relegated to the championship league. Soton had no chance anymore. I hope that soton and leicester city will relegated. Everton is still having a chance. It needs to find the right rythm.

Everton will face leicester city which is also placing in the relegation zone at this moment. that will become a huge challenge for soton. It's caused by everton really needs point to leave from the relegation zone.
The gap to the nottingham forest and leeds are not so big. Everton is still having a chance to make its comeback to stay in EPL next season.
Bournemouth was able making a goal that was saving the club from getting draw.

[gabbie2010]

coach Ten Hag should shop more good defenders in summer if he wants to make this Manchester united team to compete for the league title next season , his challenge this season is the defend, once his two best defending choice are injured the team lose and lack confidence in the back. it affected them seriously yesterday, it was pure defending fault. i think they have to keep winning to secure the top three in the laegue table.

Yes, there were indeed several gaps in Manchester United's defense in that match. But that happened because the intensity of the attacks from Tottenham in the second half really increased and also so fast. So that Manchester United defenders are a little overwhelmed in making a solid defense. But in this match both teams played very well. both even had shots that came close to goals. but both still hit the crossbar.

I think MU really needs great players guarding their back line because MU's defense very easily creates gaps that opponents can take advantage of, but even so playing as the host, of course Tottenham doesn't want to be humiliated for the second time after being beaten by Newcastle last week with a landslide score of 6 - 1 , Tottenham managed to make a comeback in the second half which had been trailing 0 - 2 , Tottenham finally managed to draw the score 2 - 2 , Manchester United actually appeared to dominate. They had a little more shots on target, namely eight times.

The results of the match made the competition hotter for the two teams to finish in the top four of the Premier League standings. MU is currently in fourth place with 60 points from 31 matches, Tottenham Hotspur is below him with 54 points from 33 matches. Obviously MU must think about their defense.

It's obvious Shaw and Lindelöf who played as central defence for Man Utd weren't good enough, Shaw was drafted from his familiar right back to central defence partnered by inexperience Lindelöf unfortunately the duo can't stop Son and Harry Kane I am not surprise Tottenham came back to drew the match, though Bruno Fernandes missed clear goal scoring chance that hit the woodwork would have settled the tie when Man Utd was leading 2-1 unfortunately Man Utd got punished for that poor finish.
Meanwhile Man Utd and Newcastle will clinch the two remaining UCL spot because Man Utd though fourth has 60 points with 2 oustanding matches same with Newcastle with 62 points and 1 more match, however Tottenham stood at distant fifth with  54 points having played all their 33 matches.

Ten Hag is not deliberately resting its players at this time, because several players who are often used by Ten Hag such as Varane and Martinez are also still injured so they cannot be played into matches, after all Manchester United is currently only in the League competition. England and the FA Cup only, while in other competitions it doesn't exist anymore, so there is no intentional reason for Ten Hag to use substitute players in the previous matches.

It was obvious that Arsenal was going to lose the match against Manchester City looking at the past head-to-head performances between the two giants. I knew that Arsenal stood no chance at winning the match but I had anticipated a draw. Arteta the Arsenal coach  would have played a more defensive rather than an offensive formation, Arsenal would have stood a chance at regaining and maintaining their spot on the premier league table with just a draw. Man city on the other hand came on with their best team players which made it look so easy that they won the match.

[asriloni]

Some interesting matches that will come soon.

Arsenal vs chelsea gonna be a funny match. I meant incapability of chelsea to create even a single goal has become the chief concern here. Let's see how many goals will be made by arsenal against chelsea. Arsenal's odds is very good at this moment against chelsea.
I will pick arsenal for this match. Chelsea seems has very small chance to get draw against arsenal. It looks impossible to think if chelsea would be able to win against arsenal.

The match against west ham gonna be easy match for manchester city. Manchester City must not underestimate Westham in this match.
City's odd is more than what i have expected before.

The match between city vs westham can give decent reward for people who will pick city.

It seems that the player who became a substitute in the match against Tottenham yesterday, seems to still be in the criteria of a good player so far at Manchester United. So, I don't think it was the substitutions that caused Manchester United to only get a 2-2 draw, but it seems like Erik ten Hag applied a different tactic and/or strategy and that allowed Tottenham to score two goals in the second half.

Well, if it continues like this then of course it will be very unfortunate, because basically Manchester United has the ability to win because Manchester United also got two goals in the first half. So yes, it looks like Erik ten Hag really needs to be able to change the pattern of play like that, because if it continues like that then it's possible that Manchester United will fail to get a ticket to the Champions League next season.

The 2-2 draw in the match against Tottenham in Week 33 of the Premier League reminded us of the incident in the European League against Sevilla leg 1.
Almost the same, the difference was against Sevilla, Maguire's blunder made the score 2-2. Meanwhile against Tottenham yesterday at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, it was Erik ten Hag who made a blunder with his strategy which ended in failure.

Even though when the score was already superior to Manchester United 0-2, I already thought that the 3rd position in the standings would belong to Manchester United because the remaining 1 game has the potential to win.
Whatever the result we receive, it's not a matter of injury to players, but the line up that was installed by Erik ten Hag from the start was quite good.
Everything turned chaotic when a number of substitutions were made.

[Doell]

Everton will face leicester city which is also placing in the relegation zone at this moment. that will become a huge challenge for soton. It's caused by everton really needs point to leave from the relegation zone.
The gap to the nottingham forest and leeds are not so big. Everton is still having a chance to make its comeback to stay in EPL next season.
Bournemouth was able making a goal that was saving the club from getting draw.

Everton also may not find it easy to win and get three points at home to Leicester, which previously Leicester also can beat Wolves very well at home. Even so, the both of teams in the relegation zone unpredictable they can sometimes make a surprise, but I think its very small chance for Everton win at home to Leicester, hopefully I'm wrong. Because Everton must be able to rise from adversity if want to stay in the EPL, considering that the gap with Forest is also not far.

[naira]

Arsenal vs chelsea gonna be a funny match. I meant incapability of chelsea to create even a single goal has become the chief concern here. Let's see how many goals will be made by arsenal against chelsea. Arsenal's odds is very good at this moment against chelsea.
I will pick arsenal for this match. Chelsea seems has very small chance to get draw against arsenal. It looks impossible to think if chelsea would be able to win against arsenal.

Anyone at this time would doubt Chelsea, we have nothing to hope for more with the Arsenal game. We already know the final result before the game starts, especially after the big defeat to Manchester City made Arteta no longer feel good with several games wasted. Talking about Chelsea's depravity, the season will never end, which is quite detrimental to many parties. Arsenal and Manchester City will face opponents they can accumulate wins on.
