Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[kro55]

Aston Villa's defense was completely undermined today by Newcastle. I never expected Newcastle to be this strong at the start of the season but they played really well today. I was really surprised by their performance but Newcastle have been very, very good since last season.

Newcastle are partying today, of course it's because they have scored 5 goals all game. The temporary score is 5-1 and I think it will soon be over to make Unai Emery rack his brains to restore his team's confidence in the next game.

Newcastle did it in the second half while in the first half Aston Villa could withstand the attack even scored goal too I wonder what motivated them in the second half
The advantage of Newcastle is that they don't depend on one player they work together on all lines just look at the 5 goals 4 scored by different players
This is not owned by other teams and Newcastle has done it since last season if Newcastle is consistent like this then I am not surprised if they are finished in top 3/4

In the first match of the season, Newcastle team got a remarkable victory. I can't imagine Newcastle getting such a nice win. Like last season, they did not add any big star players to the squad. Still, this team is doing great. Aston Villa were formidable opponents. A 5-1 win against such a team is a great achievement indeed. This will increase the confidence of the players. Newcastle's players will be able to perform better in the upcoming matches. Just like last season, the chemistry between Newcastle's players this season is fantastic. Coach Eddie Howe is doing a great job. I would say Eddie Howe's hard work is why this team is able to perform so well. However, Newcastle's players are also very hardworking.

Newcastle United beat Aston Villa 5-1. I expect Aston Villa to finish among the top 6 teams this season. Last season they finished 7th but they could have finished 6th. After Unai Emery took over as manager, they have improved to a good level. However, Newcastle were excellent in this game, just like they were for most of last season. I think they will overtake Tottenham, Chelsea and Manchester United in the league standings again this season.

How certain are you that Newcastle will overtake the three teams you mentioned(Chelsea, Manchester United, and Tottenham)? Keep in mind that while Tottenham and Manchester United added players to their squads, Chelsea completely changed the makeup of their team, including their coach.
Nobody can predict which side will be ahead of the other in the Premier League until after a considerable number of matches have been played and we see how each team performed. At that point, based on their performance in the matches, we may figure out whose club we expect to overtake the other.
Every new season has its own unique set of surprises, making it impossible to predict which club will maintain its lead in the Premier League tables

For everyone who followed my prediction this week,they must have gotten their winning,as I predicted earlier that Arsenal will win,Mancity will win, Newcastle will win and Briton will win,they all won.But one team I wasn't impressed with today is Arsenal,Arteta is doing what will make him lose,because he left Karl Harvetz who is not even fit to be at Arsenal to play full 90 minutes,and he didn't play anything impressive.He left Trosard on the bench,even played Partey in a wrong position,infact the overall Arsenal game today wasn't good at all.They have changed from their fast pattern of football to a very dull and boring one.The Liveliness that was in them last season is no longer there,I don't know if it's because the new players have not blended in the squad or they just want to change pattern.I know they are solid at the back,but I still don't like the way Arteta changes game atimes,and if they should continue playing like this, there is every possibility that a team like Newcastle,Chelsea, Liverpool,Mancity and Britton will definitely flog them.

Probably the most interesting match for me will be Newcastle vs Aston Villa... Their last meeting at Newcastle ended 3-3... At the end of last season Villa started to play very well... But Newcastle usually don't lose at home... I don't know what will happen today, but I think a Newcastle win at odds of 1.7 is a very good bet... I don't think Villa can play well today...

Villa has been on an awesome form in the friendlies by winning many of those matches no matter that most of those games were against much weaker teams than Newcastle.This should show us to bet with caution as I don't think it will be an easy win for Newcastle despite me predicting a 2-1 win for them today.The odd of 1.7 is a low one for Newcastle considering that this is the first game of the new season normally the odd should have been at 1.90 as a bare minimum and even 2 would be a nice one,in the first game of the season no one has enough data and info to judge if the odd is good or bad,for me is not good,it is in the low side.

5-1... Newcastle just destroyed Villa in this game... I certainly expected them to win, but I didn't think it would be such a big score... Friendly matches are not an indicator for league games... Today Newcastle showed serious intentions for this season... Also today I was surprised by Nottingham Forest... For them it can be called a success that they were able to score away to Arsenal...

I believe that few people expected Newcastle to win so easily. Now Newcastle has a good base in the form of financial support of the sheikhs and extremely competent work with those players that are, but Aston Villa is coached by Unai Emery, who won the Europa League and in the English Premier League had time to work, so still many expected more or less equal fight, and in the end it turned out that in the first 16 minutes immediately scored 3 goals, and the odds of total more than 2.5 was about 2! In general, those who bet on the total more than 3.5 and 4.5 could earn good money.

Arsenal wins against Nottingham with 2-1 scoreline. Good control over the match but I feel they should have scored one more goal. Gunners had plenty of chances which went wide or saved by Turner and also at the end I think Arsenal players were tired while tracking back counter with Elanga on the ball and conceded the goal.

I would say a good start by Arsenal with new PL campaign but I think Arsenal are much capable of posting even better scoreline.

Whether more goals or not, what matters most is for the team to later grab the 3 points at the end of the match. That's the most important thing. Arsenal did the needful by winning their first match of the season. Although Nottm Forest is no match for them, at least the 3 points have been recorded for them.
Am looking forward to how Arsenal progress in other of their tough and easy matches to come. Let them not repeat the same stuff they did last season that would make football fans question how possible is for them to win the premier league this season.
Their belief and motivating factor this season is likely to be that they are capable of lifting the premier league title this season since they can hold up Manchester City from winning the Community Shield Cup finals, they can do the same if they keep a resilient spirit in all through their PL matches.

At the start of the season, some teams do end up making mistakes. I was actually glad to see that Arsenal did not make any mistakes like that. Arsenal was in control of the match throughout the whole time. Having 79% possession is absolutely incredible against any team. The only thing that Arsenal might be a little salty about is probably conceding. I think it was towards the end of the match and Arsenal was taking it a little easy. And obviously, they had to pay the price.


Arsenal is definitely capable of lifting the English Premier League trophy. But they will have to keep in mind that they have to perform consistently throughout the whole season. They cannot be in the lead and not perform well at all in the last five matches. The last five matches are the reason why Arsenal were not able to lift the English Premier League trophy last season.

Good start for the Gunners to the league this season with a narrow victory against Nottingham Forest in the early hours of the day. Arteta’s men started on a good note but lost focus in the second half and almost let their three points slip away but were able to secure the win to record 3points along side Manchester City. That is something Arteta will need to work on, staying focused and committed to the game for complete ninety minutes. It was a narrow victory today and a lucky one because Nottingham Forest came closer to scoring a second goal to equalize. Declan Rice wasn’t at his best today but he made quite an impact, Kai Harvertz needs to work on his finishing to flourish under Mikel Arteta and maintain a spot in Arsenal’s starting eleven.

Lots of teams can actually do that, it's just that Newcastle apparently had a different tactic which involved utilising a lot of players who can score. Or maybe it was just a fluke this time. That's not a valid comparison, as other teams have clearly laid out tactics that involve two or three players on whom the goalscoring pass is going in

[EFS]

It's good to start the league with a win. Even though Arsenal was heavy favorite against Nottingham Forest it was important to not make any mistakes in first game and at home. Martinelli and Nketiah were pretty good today. Saka's goal from outside the box was amazing. Arsenal gave good signs, I hope they will be in the discussion for the whole season.

Shocking results to watched from today's game. Eddie Howe has the upper hand over Unai Emery. Aston Villa were competent and matched the same enthusiasm as the home team in the first half, but a lot changed in the second half. The magpies applied enough pressure to net three additional goals, which stunned the visitors at the close of the second half. At St. James' Park, Newcastle humiliates Aston Villa. The Magpies won their first EPL league game with a stunning victory. A excellent performance produces three points.

Martinelli and Nketiah were pretty good today. Saka's goal from outside the box was amazing. Arsenal gave good signs, I hope they will be in the discussion for the whole season.

There were a few things that I enjoyed in this Arsenal game like when Martineli's run made it a really, really good assist as well as some of Rice's attempted shots which is a new player at Arsenal is very good and I like to see that.
But there are also some things that Arteta needs to fix here such as when in the first 10 minutes their offside trap did not work well which made opportunities that fortunately did not become goals for Nottingham and of course the solo run in the crucial minute that allowed Nottingham to reduce the gap is a strong reason for Arteta to look at the defense which still shows some gaps.
But 3 points for Arsenal's first game is still very good and this is an easy bet again

[Sexylizzy2813]

Today's game was just superb, Newcastle was wonderful. I'd say if they continue like this I believe they'd finish ahead of some of the big 6 again this season.
Newcastle are getting better everyday, they're not satisfied with just 3goals like City does, whenever I see Newcastle play I just say to myself that this players are title contenders and they can beat team like Arsenal and Manchester City. I watched the Arsenal game and I was shocked by how they still feel relaxed after leading by 2goals and also wasting chances, they (Arsenal) just showed that they're not hunger for goals.
If they come face to face with this amazing Newcastle team I don't see the Gunners getting a draw.

[tiCeR]

I think a lot of people either in the stadium or in front of their screens were shaking their head when Haaland scored the first goal in the 4th minute of the game. Guardiola must have thought that this is unbelievable how omnipresent Haaland is. He is crazy like I don't know what to say about him.

Pep did not look impressed with the first half performance, he was furious about something that he expressed to Haaland while they walked down the tunnel to the dressing room. Haaland will finish this game with a Hattrick coming out in the second half. Burnley have not been bad in the first half, but Manchester City's quality is more than what they can handle. Haaland scoring again with few touches shows that this season, he may beat the record he set last season.

Manchester city has not been very good even though they are winning, they have made many defensive errors that would have cost them if they had been playing a more stronger opponent. Pep Guardiola will try to correct those errors as the play more games.

This is typical for Guardiola and I understand it. He doesn't want his team to win with tons of luck, he wants his team to control the game and win it with ease if possible. He knows that it can't always be done with ease, but when it could be done he gets angry when the players think they can come down a peg after a lead or lean back in their belief that less than the maximum is also enough.

He would never be satisfied after the first game in the season and it doesn't matter what the result would be. I am not sure what he was criticizing about Haaland, it can't have been something significant, but sometimes Guardiola also corrects certain movements or pass selections in a game and this is what makes him so special as a coach. He himself never gets tired of analyzing the details during the games.

There is no certainty about who will win the title, but Arsenal I think have the possibility to lift it. Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United and Newcastle also have a chance, so the title will not be guaranteed for Arsenal.

Manchester City, Arsenal and Newcastle won their first game at the start of the season, so I don't agree with guarantees. Arsenal only have this possibility come true if they can maintain their winning streak, but it's the toughest challenge for any team.

Seriously, it was not funny for Aston Villa today. I never thought Newcastle could score many goals against Aston Villa in today's match; seriously, this is so surprising. In my prediction, I staked on Newcastle to win, but I never believed that they could win easily like this. It is really great to see them starting with this great form. Newcastle have shown us that they are ready for this season's top four again, or will I say that they are ready to fight for the Premier League title? Newcastle's next Match is against Manchester City; let's see how they perform to really know how strong they are this season again. Judging them early, especially with just one match won, is not proper, but still, based on how their players are playing, I will say they are good for this season.

I also placed the same bet but without Manchester City only 3 teams Arsenal, Newcastle and Brighton indeed the odds are low but when combined into a parlay the odds are higher 2.6 like in my screenshot. I agree with you, Arsenal game is a bit boring they control the game but always fail in the end we can imagine 15 shots fired in 90 minutes but only 2 goals were successful, I'm afraid Arsenal need another striker somehow they seemed to struggle to score today Arsenal should be able to score 4 goals with statistics like that.

[un_rank]

Alexander Isak was on fire today and could have easily gotten a hatrick today as he missed a great goal scoring chance just after scoring a brace. He is looking very sharp and should better his return of 10 goals last season with expected more games and playing time as he joins Haaland with 2 goals after first matchday.

The link up play between Barnes and Wilson was also delightful to watch. A promising season ahead for the toons.

Arsenal also made a good start to the season. I was hoping to see a bigger victory by them but it ended by 2-1. However the most important point was to win of course. This is the beginning of the season so teams might not be fully ready for a new season. It is nice to see Arsenal starting by getting three points as a result.

Especially Saka's goal was really impressive. He is already a very skillful player and he started to show this to us from the first game already. Martinelli's assist on the first goal was also great. I hope to see them having a consistent performance during this season.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

Great wins for Newcastle and Man City in the opening weekend, very convincing. Arsenal did what they had to do, funny to see Everton lose.

Feeling a little annoyed at how Chelsea have humiliated us (LFC) over the Caicedo deal. Something really weird going on at Chelsea. They’ve spent £1,000,000,000 in 12 months once this summer ends. They’re going to get fined and possibly points deductions soon I predict. They have a 40,000 seater stadium, they make less revenue than the likes of City, Liverpool, Man Ud but they’re spending like crazy. They can not possibly comply with FFP & the profit/sustainability rulings. All these 9 year contracts are sketchy too.

Hope we batter them tomorrow, come on you mighty reds.

I was still surprised by Martinelli's assist and immediately Nketiah fired in the shot that led to Arsenal. Then there was the spectacular goal scored by Bukayo Saka and even Kai Havertz was speechless to the point of holding his head because he was so surprised to see the goal. In the second half Arsenal struggled quite a bit and couldn't add to the number of goals and instead they were hit by a quick counter attack from Nottingham which made them concede one goal. A deserved victory for Mikel Arteta's squad at the start of the season and these 3 additional points keep Arsenal still below Manchester City with a goal difference.

Arsenal were able to close their first game quite stunningly because they managed to secure 3 points in their first game this season. Saka performed brilliantly by scoring a beautiful goal in this match because his hard shot from outside the penalty box could not be blocked by Turner. Apart from that, the first goal in this match was also completed nicely by Nketiah in the 26th minute. I saw this match going quite exciting and Arsenal managed to do quite well by securing victory until the end of the match.

Apart from that, Newcastle United, who were playing at home, won their first match of the season by winning a big win where the final score was 5-1 for Newcastle United. I saw Newcastle United game getting more confident after the quick lead scored by Tonali in the 6th minute. Tonali impressed in his first match with Newcastle United after he was successfully recruited from AC Milan this season.

Yes it was an outstanding outing formAsernal over the weekend in their opening game in the premiere league were the club recorded a significant goal scores even though they faced a strong club from the last season, and also Manchester City won their opening match.

This season is going to be exciting since most of the clubs are readily keeping up with demands and making every possible attempt to make the first mark with high goal records in their matches.
