Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[DaNNy001]

This week I saw bad news for Manchester City and it seems their coach pep Guardiola, had back surgery and that's why he will be absent in the next two games of Manchester City. the games against Sheffield United and Fulham are not hard for Manchester City but still, they won't have their coach and this can decrease their performance.

It is very unfortunate for Man City, even though the opponent is not the big four team, still the presence of the coach is very important. We know that sometimes the top teams find it difficult to win against teams they can actually beat. In such a difficult position, the coach can give instructions and change the playing strategy. Even though there is an assistant to handle, I'm sure it will have a different impact on the players. GWS Pep!

No doubt that the coach present is very important and vital but for the level of understanding this Manchester city team have I feel it wont be much problem for them to actually perform well without their plan master pep guadiola. Pep is really good coach and I think it's influence might have robbed off on his assistant and so Manchester city wouldn't have much of a problem and also seeing that there opponent aren't much of standard with them.

As for Manchester United, I don't know how to describe their form but with the two matches they have played, won 1 and lose one, I will be neutral on their performance till further notice but then, Erik neee to work on Rashford because I don't understand what that boy was doing on Saturday, he should train his boys to from allowing football mistake just as we saw in the case of Martinez.

Mistakes are normal and will be difficult to completely avoid or stop a player from making. The coach can only work to improve your play so that these errors do not happen too much or too frequently. Rashford is not as clinical in finishing as he was last season or maybe he has not yet kicked in to that genius. Manchester United will now have to play a couple of games without Mason Mount as he is injured and will be out until the international break of next month.
I know some Manchester United supporters will be happy with the news because some have the idea that he is a part of the problem of the team. Without Mason Mount, we will see how well Manchester United will do in their next game.

Tottenham are really doing well even without Harry Kane present in the team. I feared that Tottenham will struggle so much after Kane’s departure but so far this season they have showed improvement from the first game of the season. Keeping a clean sheet against Manchester United and winning the game is a resounding display of how solid the team is. Pape Sarr was also impressive in that game as he made attempts and scored the first goal of the season.

We need to commend the way the Tottenham Hotspur side is and how they were able to function as a unit without Harry Kane. I was thinking there'd be flops and cheap mistakes especially as he was no longer with them but the team I saw defeat Man UTD is different and ready to become possible title contesters. This might seem to early to predict but in essence, this season would be different and under Coach Ange Postecoglou, I expect more winnings.
 Tottenham squad have picked up pace and are in a good position to upset any big teams. So far they have drawn one game and won 1, a positive step for their new coach if you ask me.

There is some news from Chelsea and now it seems Lewis Hall, the young player from Chelsea is going to play for Newcastle on a season for loan, this player grew up in the Chelsea academy and even he played there in the under 8-year-old team, he is going to join Newcastle to have more chance to play in the next season and use his talents there which is a good decision for a young player like him.

Arsenal have brilliant players who are ready to deliver the club interms of crucial phases. Odegaard is the captain and the only lucrative midfielder presently at emirate followed by Declan Rice, with these players, been on the winning side should be easy for the club. Arsenal facing tough time this season, they probably having the same challenges with Chelsea. Dominating a game and finding it really difficult to net a goal. Gunners struggled in the two games this season, their next game is Fulham. I bet Mikel Arteta will definitely outshines Marco Silva this weekend.

Arsenal have established themselves as one of the strongest title contenders since last season. Arteta and his team ultimately failed to maintain consistency due to pressure, but many people think this season will be different. Arsenal are expected to still be able to maintain form and be in contention for the title, but I don't expect Chelsea to be in a team that will be in for that.

Pochettino has not proved anything other than just his bad experience in the last two matches. Chelsea only drew against Liverpool, while they lost 3-1 to West Ham. Of course that's a shame after Chelsea, who has been spending so much money so far to build an elite squad.

Snip.

Good start for the Gunners.
Win but not satisfied. Arsenal need to be stronger in their away games.
Need to convert goal chances and ball possession into more goals.
If he wants to win the premier league, Arteta needs to improve his team's game as a whole.
Next on to Fulham. Keep the momentum going, Take it game after game.

What just happened at Crystal Palace headquarters must be evaluated immediately by Arteta, Arsenal players had difficulty scoring goals despite controlling the game, the only goal Arsenal managed to get in this game was through a penalty spot which was executed perfectly by Odegaard. Arsenal must perform optimally and be more creative in taking advantage of opportunities to score goals, competition in the EPL this season requires Arsenal to perform better than what they have shown at Crystal Palace headquarters.
The sharpness of the front line needs to be honed again, their goal productivity must be able to increase if they want to maintain competition with Manchester City in the race for the EPL championship.

It was a difficult game for Arsenal last night. I know Crystal Palace to be one team that will always give Arsenal problems so I was not expecting it to be an easy encounter though. The good thing is that they won whether by a single goal margin or more, it doesn’t really matter. The  important thing is that they got all three points from the game. I expect a better performance in the next game against Fulham.

I think if Chelsea can't win against Luton Town this weekend, then Pochettino is really under pressure.

Pochettino and Chelsea are under more pressure than they would have loved to be so early on in the season, two matches played and they have scored just two goals, conceded 4, and have only 1 point; that is not the sort of start that the fans would have hoped for. Having said that, Chelsea know that the only option in their next game is a win, and i think the fixture somewhat favors them, they should easily get a win against newly promoted Luton Town on Friday, the game is also in Stamford Bridge, which gives Chelsea more advantage.

That's what happens when you expect too much from already wounded team, it's doesn't just settle the issue even if you offload the whole squad, the problem is that Chelsea needs as fast as they can to input that winning mentality on the team if not there problems is still going to persist for a very long time

The big problem for Chelsea right now is compatibility. They can overcome this problem by simply trying to strengthen the team's relationship with each other. In this case, the biggest task is left to the technical team and Pochettino. Pochettino must do his best to get the whole team in line as soon as possible otherwise we could see something similar to last year's Chelsea performance and that would be a huge disappointment.

It is so heart breaking that Chelsea still performs just like the way they were performing last season,  I was thinking having Pochettino as the new coach and changing some players their will be a transformation in their performance. Chelsea has tried everything just to perform  better but it seems all their efforts is not bringing good results. All blames was put upon the previous coaches as if the failure was their fault but it was never from them. The problem of Chelsea is not just a matter of coach or players,  it could be something else and they really need to find out what is really their problem.

You are heartbroken because you had too much expectations from Chelsea they might have the right coach but do they hav the right players to help them bounce up to the previous form of Thomas Tuchel season, that we know will not be possible.
It is a gradual step they will lt win all the games but th game against West Ham was rough let's not forget that West Ham is that side that won the Conference League Competition. They are making the right moves for the players they want to push the club.
The failures and fault also has to come from the head of the club and down to the management and players.

[KTChampions]

Everything will be clear from the next games (three games with outsiders and the first 2 at home). If Chelsea continue to lose points it will be clear that this is another lost season. If not, then it will be necessary to look at the results of the next games with more serious opponents. I wonder what goals set for Pochetino for the season by the leadership and what is the level of "maximum drawdown" in the process of achieving them.

Why many people ended up being disappointed by Chelsea is because they underrated the ability of West Ham United. If you understand football very well, you will know that West Ham United in the past two seasons have never faced any challenges neither in thei management or in the coaching aspect. They have been consistent in the Europa League and last season they were also lucky to qualify for the European competition. So they have good players that have known each other very well. Unlike Chelsea that is trying to build with a very new coach. For the fact that people underrated the ability of West Ham, that is why the winning took them unawear. And again, maybe they expected much from recovering Chelsea.

It's not about West Ham (although even if we take into account all the strengths of West Ham and assess their potential as respectfully as possible, then Chelsea should still be the favorite in this pair and at least not lose), but in the overall results. A draw with Liverpool is pretty good, right? But so far, in total, two seemingly logical (which can be explained/justified) events give 1 point. This is a failure and further loss of points will be a disaster.

I expect a better performance in the next game against Fulham.

The gunners didn't actually perform well to my taste but I would understand because like you said this crystal palace team are a really stubborn side and would give any team a run for their money because they can actually play the ball quite well and also they have lots of experience when it comes to playing against the big teams. The season is just starting, so for the fact for arsenal to actually struggle to win games in their first two fixtures is actually not a very strong start for them.

[Pokapoka124]

Yesterday’s match was interesting as both teams were trying hard to outdo each other on the pitch. I followed the game until the 76th minute and I must say that Arsenal look better this season. Mikel Arteta has stepped up his game this season with new strategies to pursue the league and new additions who are making impact already. The boys should good composure last night especially after getting a red card, they didn’t panic or lose focus rather they stayed together and defended their one goal lead until full time.

Arsenal is lack of dept on its striker. The club needs someone who could contribute hugely like giroud which has also a good finishing. Nketiah was not good nor bad. This guy was just an average striker. he had been getting some golden chances but nketiah is always lack of proper finishing. It's now the time for arsenal to searching a new striker. It's so strange to see how arsenal can't even bring back balogun to the club. he may able to perform even better than nketiah.
Im also aware about how ramsdale is trying even harder caused by he has a competitor to take the main spot as a goalkeeper for the club.  Arsenal is still need to find a new striker.
Nketiah can't have a good finishing like gabriel. This boy needs to get more time to play as a central striker.

Mikel Arteta seem to have faith in Nketiah, this is an opportunity for Nketiah to show how valuable he can be in the team in the absence of Gabriel Jesus who is now sidelined to injury. I like Nketiah, he is physical and has good pace, he also looks dangerous sometimes, I feel he needs enough time to improve and boost his confidence

A fascinating campaign is in store because to Chelsea and Liverpool changing rosters this season, which have been accompanied by tactical modifications. Their initial encounter pull seems appropriate, allowing time for growth and adaptation. The actual potential of both teams is expected to show in later games, highlighting their solidity and strengths. Looking ahead, their second league matchup holds the possibility of an unambiguous victor. The ability of Chelsea and Liverpool to hone their teams is a well known story in the context of English football. With Liverpool emphasis on bolstering their midfield and Chelsea new coaching dynamics this season, it is to be expected that the optimal formation would gradually improve. These improvements transformative effects may ultimately shift the scales slightly in Liverpool favour.

Both teams are going through a growth phase, even with the new additions they are still struggling to adapt to the changes and rebuild their team work and togetherness. I think Liverpool are better organized than this Chelsea side with many new faces in the team. Both teams have got good players with potentials even if we might not be seeing the results now but with time both teams will improve and perform much better.

The gunners didn't actually perform well to my taste but I would understand because like you said this crystal palace team are a really stubborn side and would give any team a run for their money because they can actually play the ball quite well and also they have lots of experience when it comes to playing against the big teams. The season is just starting, so for the fact for arsenal to actually struggle to win games in their first two fixtures is actually not a very strong start for them.

Crystal Palace's defence is quite good on the other hand Arsenal's attack line is also very bad in this match.
Crystal Palace with the condition of players who are actually below Arsenal in terms of price and popularity but they can compensate and make the match actually quite balanced this is really bad for Arsenal.
Indeed in this case there are several factors such as losing Tomiyasu which makes Arsenal lose momentum but still 14 chances and only 3 on target it really does not reflect them as a club in the big 4 last season.
Arsenal still have a lot of work to do now to improve their performance.

[Pokapoka124]

He's getting older now and he's moving away from his old performance. 39 is too late for football unless you are a goalkeeper. Even goalkeepers do not play football until that age. If we talk about the Luton match, I think they will beat Luton comfortably and get their first win in the league.

Luton is a promoted team this season in the Premier League so they will definitely have a little trouble against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, moreover Chelsea themselves will also take advantage of that match to get full points because they know that their opponent is a promoted team which is not so strong in the Premier League. And everyone will find it easier to make predictions for which team will win the match because they are very aware that Luton is not an opponent at the level of Chelsea at this time.

It’s unfortunate if this is true. Despite the two games may seem to be easy fixtures, Guardiola’s presence on the sidelines stands as a morale booster to the team because constantly he will be giving corrections and instructions to his team. He will definitely be missed, I hope this does not have a bad effect on the team’s performance in their next games.

[Coyster]

Pochettino has not proved anything other than just his bad experience in the last two matches. Chelsea only drew against Liverpool, while they lost 3-1 to West Ham. Of course that's a shame after Chelsea, who has been spending so much money so far to build an elite squad.

Whilst it has been a pretty bad start for Chelsea and Pochettino, it is still too early on in the season and Chelsea have all the time in the world to put things right and start getting good results. I know that they have spent quite a lot of money in the last three transfer windows and thus it'll make people grow more impatient with Chelsea and Pochettino because they expect results immediately.

Having said that, money isn't enough in building a winning team, a club can buy quite a lot of good players, but when the manager cannot get the best out of them, they'll just be like an ordinary team; Pochettino has a lot of work to do in order to get this Chelsea team back to winning ways, or else his job would be on the line.

Their yesterday match was win by luck and it doesn't happen all the time. I was skeptical on betting the match but on realising what Manchester United did in their own last match, I had to remained neutral and watch them do their things and bless lord, they made it out with another 3 point to maintain their place in the standing, I'm just wondering where they will land this season. However, I'm still impress by there points but they need more to fight that Manchester City that has picked race for another Premier League title. It doesn't make sense when on only Etihad have more collections of all the Premier League in the last few years. We need change and I anticipate to see Newcastle or Arsenal take this Premier League before any other dominant teams.

I like Nketiah, he is physical and has good pace, he also looks dangerous sometimes, I feel he needs enough time to improve and boost his confidence

He needs to use this time well and improve on his decision making in front of goal. He is good, I like his quick turns, but he can also improve and become more deadly.

I think Liverpool are better organized than this Chelsea side with many new faces in the team. Both teams have got good players with potentials even if we might not be seeing the results now but with time both teams will improve and perform much better.

Chelsea are already having problems with many of their players injured in just the first few games of this season and some from before. Christopher Nkunku, Armando Broja, Trevoh Chalobah, Badiashile, Wesley Fofana, Reece James, Carney Chukwuemeka all injured for Chelsea. More can follow if care is not taken because there has been lots of injuries recorded already in this premier league season.

The rate at which players are getting injured this season is becoming alarming,in almost all the clubs in the premier league,there are more than two or three players getting injured in each of the teams.Mancity have about three of their key players injured, Debruyne, Bernando Silva and Stones are all absentees due to injury,while Arsenal have Jurien Timber and Gabriel Jesus out,and I just think these injuries are too early to come because the season just started.

I feel for some teams that don't have enough squad depth this season,and I suggest it would be better that they go out not to get new players in this current transfer window before the window slams shut on the 31st of August.With all these injuries in the Chelsea squad,I think they should sign more players that can replace them immediately before it will be too late to do business.

Manchester City were favorites against Newcastle. However, since the non-Newcastle team's performance has been stable. So I guessed the match would be a draw. However, Manchester City performed very well against Newcastle. In the end, Manchester City won a narrow 1-0 match. The important thing is that City got full 3 points from the match.
I was fed up with Manchester United's performance. I put my money on United winning. I lost my money. Chelsea and United teams are performing very unsteadily this season. On the other hand, it is difficult to predict the performance of the Liverpool team. However, it is not certain whether they will compete for the title.

[asriloni]

There is some news from Chelsea and now it seems Lewis Hall, the young player from Chelsea is going to play for Newcastle on a season for loan, this player grew up in the Chelsea academy and even he played there in the under 8-year-old team, he is going to join Newcastle to have more chance to play in the next season and use his talents there which is a good decision for a young player like him.

Selling lewis hall was just another blunder for chelsea. he has the capacity to play in some positions. He is also very young at this moment. Pochettino was doing some mistakes by selling him instead of some garbage old players like sterling.
Chelsea was just repeating the same mistake of KDB. The club never learned from its fault in the past by selling some potential players. Hall will be able to be a great defender in the future.
He has been showing his potential. He was more than an ordinary defender at his age. I can't even accept this shit as chelsea kicks its potential player for the old player.
There shall be no place for the layer like gallagher in the club. Lewis hall is far better. Another big mistake being made by chelsea. This club needs to pay a lot of money to get him back in the future.

That's a lot of injuries to key Chelsea players and this is likely going to affect the team's performance in their next game having got this number of players injured who are yet to recover. Starting up the season with so many injuries has the possibility of denying them the top 4 spots, looking at how competitive it was last season. It is needful for the coach to step up his game to get Chelsea into the promised Land.

[Captain Corporate]

Chelsea has to keep on selling players and getting new ones constantly, that's the deal they made. The ffp rule states that you can prolong the deal to contract years, so when you spend 500 million but make it 8 year contracts, that makes it 62.5 million down for the year even before they sign any single player. In order to get new players, they need to keep on selling players, the first thing they have to do every single year, otherwise even if those players are gone, they will have it on their accounts. SO they just get rid of players now, and getting new players in with a better amount, which makes them grow quickly but then get to a steady place slowly.
