Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[GiftedMAN]

^^ It is possible as despite Chelsea's last win I wouldn't say they are consistent or have improved a lot. Yeah they were strong in last game but they still are vulnerable. Forest have lost their pacy winger Brennan Johnson but there are lot of strong players to fill that up. Forest have been playing better than last season and so I think they can surprise Chelsea here.

Earlier H2H are just old records...I also do hope Forest win here.

Haha It turns out that there are still many doubts about Chelsea even though against Nottingham I don't want to take a bigger risk in the bet on the basis that Chelsea is still the favorite here even if they are inconsistent I will rule out this match.  

Although H2H is an old record but at least Chelsea can maintain its H2H. Lol
I'm not backing Chelsea but the odds are in Chelsea's favor.

Yeah I thought so that Forest gonna have the first break and they did... Nice goal from Elanga there.. Chelsea are having good stats in the match but you gotta see that pressure is on Chelsea now. The odds or stats means nothing here. What if Nottingham goes on to score another goal? It's a risky one right now to back Chelsea or even draw. Nottingham are really making it hard for Chelsea right now.

I was hoping to see Chelsea bounce back once they are able to level the score line to a 1:1 before 80 minutes but judging their performance with what am watch right here the Chelsea team aren't looking like a team that's hungry for a goal in this match. How can they dominate in ball possession right from the second half of the game and not have at least a shot on goal, they posses the ball 70: 30 as at when this post was made but yet they lack the finishing force to break into the defense line of the forest team to score and the game is almost getting to the point where the forest team will be playing more of defense since they can't get another goal, it will be a disappointment again for Chelsea if they fail to atleast share a point in this game since they can't win in their own home too bad.

[AprilioMP]

I will not be surprised if Nottingham Forest will win this game because Chelsea at present are not playing like they are confident. They're loosing so much chances and I think Pochettino should stop starting Caicedo for now and instead use Mudryk. I feel they are not fully maximalizing his potential and he seems to understand Enzo Fernandez pattern of play better. Today, eyes would be looking on Raheem sterling to step up and help bring his team the three points since he has been able to give impressive performance in last games.
There have so many talented players but yet few and unimpressive results. Let's see who gets to take home the three points. I sense a draw here but maybe either sides can wake up during the second half.

You write it like this because Nottingham is already 0-1 up. If the score is reversed for Chelsea to win, your writing will definitely be different from what I assumed you would write I wouldn't be surprised if Chelsea won because they played well.
Stop this nonsense guys.

There are no superior statistics that Nottingham got other than the luck of being able to score goals.
1st they could only make 3 shots against Sanchez. Their ball possession is only 32%.
Look at statistics 2st, almost 85% Chelsea are ahead of all statistical records.

[Odusko]

I guess Chelsea will surely win this game with 2:0 in the second half because, they lead the game in the first half in the area of ball possession despite Nottingham forest are trying to block them not to have chance to enter their goalpost. If Chelsea can add more effort in the second half, I think they will get a good chance to score 2 goals to end the game in the second half because, they really show some interest to lead the game with 2 goals but they missed used the opportunity. There is no way this game will end up draw 0:0 because, the two teams are playing well but Chelsea are still on a high hill to challenge their opponent in the remaining 45 minutes to achieve the victory.
Manchester city will surely drop a points in this game because, Fulham want to let people know that they want to challenge premier league title in this season by using this opportunity to be the first team to beat Manchester city 2:1. The game ended up draw 1:1 in the first half, and I believe the Fulham still have enough strength to dominate in the second half to end the game 2:1 for the favour of Fulham.

Are you serious right now with all this predictions, because at the moment the matches are already in the extra time and Chelsea is losing with 1 goal and Manchester city already recorded multiple goals in the match also, and with such results i believe your tickets are ruined by now, sorry you made a failed prediction in this weekend.
Better luck next time, this is the reason why it more preferable not to make predictions when the match have not gone into the second half unless you want to make pre match predictionns.

It looks like even the new coach is having a really hard time with Chelsea in this beginning stage of the Premier League and while many will say that it is just the beginning I would say that the sun can be spotted early in the morning.I am afraid this Chelsea team will go from bad to worse in the coming weeks as they are again having difficulties in scoring goals,they lost today game at home against Nottingham Forest which by the way this starting stage of the season they are doing well.

I am afraid Chelsea is back to their last couple of seasons illness which is the inability to score goals,they are lacking exactly in this same area.

[execijutiere]

We've seen some goal-scoring matches in England today. It's been really exciting. There was only 1 goal against Chelsea. When I looked at the other matches, I saw that there were at least 4 goals.
Two teams without points played to a draw. Both Sheffield and Everton had no points and they were looking for a win as both teams had 3 defeats in 3 weeks. However, no one took the 3 points in this match.
Brentford, on the other hand, got their 3rd draw in 4 weeks.The home team started the match well and actually dominated the game but they couldn't create enough chances.

[shinratensei_]

Pochettino should consider varying his lineups in order to improve the team's performance. Chelsea can have so many great combinations. Pochettino was always using the same line up over and over.
He needs also to give chances to the young players like maatsen to be starting line up.

Chelsea would have scored in the final minutes of the first half, but Sterling wasted the opportunity with his stupid playing style of wasting too much time on the ball. Nottingham Forest is not a team to waste time with, they can in a moment score goals with their quick attacking pace. For Manchester City second goal by Ake, I wonder how that is not an offside. This is the officials clearly robbing Fulham even though they have worked so hard in this game to keep a perfect offside trap. Fulham were able to score in the first half and a good goal, so if they work hard again, they can score again in the second half.

Thrash team. I must be honest if this club is the weirdest club that ever exists in EPL. The club is always relying on the crossing and long pass. The club played so badly. Chelsea got the factory reset again.
I don't even know why this club shall always put gallagher, chillwell even sterling as starting line up. Lukaku has better quality than jackson. This guy has no enough experience in the EPL.

The club is so dumb. I don't even know what kind of tactic used by chelsea. This team is very slow in doing counter attack. There are no good attackers in chelsea. All the players that already bought played like shit.
Clown club. Pochettino never used another strategy. This guy is always using 3-4-2-1 which is not suitable for the club. The club can play even better when it uses 4-3-3.

Chelsea's chance to be relegated is quite big if this club is still playing like shit.

[Hyphen(-)]

You write it like this because Nottingham is already 0-1 up. If the score is reversed for Chelsea to win, your writing will definitely be different from what I assumed you would write I wouldn't be surprised if Chelsea won because they played well.
Stop this nonsense guys.

Chelsea has already lost this match because they are not playing an attacking game that will give them hope for the match despite having more experienced players than Nottingham Forest. It is a bad game for Chelsea to lose at home against Nottingham Forest even though their last two matches were draws, but with the intensity of the Chelsea squad, I expect them to win this match.

There are no superior statistics that Nottingham got other than the luck of being able to score goals.
1st they could only make 3 shots against Sanchez. Their ball possession is only 32%.
Look at statistics 2st, almost 85% Chelsea are ahead of all statistical records.

Taiwo Awoniyi is a lucky goal scorer, and their attack is very strong because they have always played good football since the beginning of the league, and now that they were able to secure their second three points against Chelsea, they have moved up to the 9th position in the Premier League table by sending Chelsea back to the 11th position.

The big game of this week is Arsenal vs United. That game will be a tough one to bet on and I bet that it is going to end up with a lot of question marks without a doubt. I think it should be important to realize that you are not going to get anything easy there, the predicting of that game is very tough.

I think it is not going to be a lot of goals though, playing 2.5 under could be the way to go but I am not sure about it neither. I mean United defense looks quite weak as well, so Arsenal maybe could find some goals too. I think I am going to just skip it straight up, but betting on that game is definitely a big return, there will be plenty of people betting on it, and the odds look great right now if anyone wants to bet.

Manchester United will defeat Arsenal with high margin tomorrow, Arsenal are not organized and I don't see them being a problem to Manchester United.

Manchester United has added to their squad a good players during the transfer window and are stronger than Arsenal. Playing at home is another advantage for Manchester United.

Manchester United will indeed host Arsenal at their home ground, but it will not be easy for Manchester United to be able to beat Arsenal easily, because Arsenal have very good quality playing on the field, so only luck can answer the victory. In my opinion, this will be a very fierce and tough game for Manchester United.

You are right Manchester United have brought in quality players during the transfer window. However, it is important to remember that team strength is not always determined by transfer spending alone. Arsenal also have great potential and it is possible that they will put in some dazzling performances this season. So, we will see how tomorrow's match goes and who will come out on top. Hopefully it will be an exciting match for fans of both teams!

Chelsea's level must be against the championship club like luton. Pochettino said that if he is gonna win FA cup, Carabao and premier league. How is it possible if the club is not even making a single goal by playing at home?
The potterball is still continuing for chelsea. Numerous people are mocking this club. The chelsea fans are feeling so upset with the horrible performance by the club. Palmer is not taking a good decision by leaving from city to join in chelsea.
Palmer was just degrading his level by moving to the chelsea. He can get much experience if he stayed even longer in the manchester city.
The boring ball showed by chelsea. The club is always doing backpass without knowing what must be done then.

Unfortunately Chelsea lost the game 0-1 against Nottingham Forest despite taking 76% ball possession and 27 shots on goal but miserable 2 shots on goal, this is quite a very disappointing result for a club that spent so much this season on players yet couldn't show for it, Sterling, Enzo, Caicedo, Mudrky, Jackson played yet they couldn't score an equalizer they are just like an average player on the field imagine comparing the cost of both clubs in terms player worth there is a wide margin between the two clubs, this absolutely a bad and poor start for Chelsea who had lost 2 matches, drawn 1 and won 1 in the league. Meanwhile Man City thrashed Fulham 5-1 in another thrilling match with Eling Haaland scoring a hattrick his first this season, it was a home side dominated match right from the beginning of the match till the end.

[reagansimms]

I guess Chelsea will surely win this game with 2:0 in the second half because, they lead the game in the first half in the area of ball possession despite Nottingham forest are trying to block them not to have chance to enter their goalpost.

You use the word definite in your predictions in this match, look at the final result of the match, Chelsea must bear the shame of being defeated by a team that is weaker than them if judged in terms of team depth. Nottingham Forest played quite well in this match, they succeeded in making the Chelsea players frustrated because they couldn't get a goal. A score of 0-1 was enough for Nottingham Forest to humiliate Chelsea and steal three points from Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea have only been able to collect 4 points from the 4 games that have passed this season, Pochettino has not been able to lead Chelsea properly even though the club has brought in quality players in the transfer market. Pochettino's ability began to be questioned after Chelsea lost a lot of points at the start of the season. If it continues like this, Chelsea will have difficulty breaking into the top four.

[execijutiere]

Totthenham won 5-2 away to Burnley.Totthenham, who were unfortunate to fall behind in the first minutes, closed the first half with the goals they found in the first half. Totthenham increased the pressure at the beginning of the second half and increased the difference to 4 goals one after the other. A goal in the last minute decided the score of the match.
Totthenham have no problem scoring goals this year and they are playing very well. They can have a say in the championship race.
Manchester city hosted Fulham at home. Although there were not many positions in the match, it was perhaps the most interesting thing that there were 6 goals. City, who closed the first half 2-1 ahead, won 5-1 in total with 3 goals scored by Haaland in the second half.

[abhiseshakana]

Manchester city will surely drop a points in this game because, Fulham want to let people know that they want to challenge premier league title in this season by using this opportunity to be the first team to beat Manchester city 2:1. The game ended up draw 1:1 in the first half, and I believe the Fulham still have enough strength to dominate in the second half to end the game 2:1 for the favour of Fulham.

Sorry to burst your bubble but Fulham isn’t going to win in this game. Presently the scores are 4:1 in favor of Manchester City. And Manchester City doesn’t seem like they’re okay with the scoreline as they’re pressing harder to get another goal.
An opportunity has just presented itself as Manchester City just won themselves a penalty to be taken by Haaland.  He sure didn’t miss this one like he did last week. Manchester City has won this game and comfortably too. With a scoreline line like this, Fulham doesn’t seem to be able to make a comeback. Perhaps City could score another goal before the game ends.

Man City played really well in the second half, their performance improved drastically, and they completely dominated the game. A goal scored by Haaland in the 58th minute put Man City ahead 3-1 and I think it was because of this goal that the mentality of the Fulham players became shaky. As a result, it was so easy for Man City to score 2 more goals. Once again Haaland showed his class as a striker.

The odds or stats means nothing here. What if Nottingham goes on to score another goal? It's a risky one right now to back Chelsea or even draw. Nottingham are really making it hard for Chelsea right now.

Really embarrassing for Chelsea.

Nottingham Forest was able to defend well after they managed one goal from Elanga, Chelsea's attack didn't really mean that their chances were many but they couldn't find a gap in Nottingham's defense. I see Chelsea's style of play is still chaotic and the players are not very creative.

It's hard to imagine if they met Man City, Liverpool or another big team they wouldn't be so consistent, sometimes this match was bad but the next match was good.
Chelsea still hasn't found the right solution.

[Avirunes]

Chelsea seemed to have difficulty scoring goals and there had to be changes immediately, especially on the front lines, and several times Chelsea had opportunities but always failed because of the tight defense and only hitting one target. And former Manchester United player
Anthony Elanga scored a good goal and was very relaxed, and I hope that in the remaining time Chelsea can score and at least equalize the score because Chelsea is playing at home.
Tottenham is hungry for goals and continues to perform well in every game, and the current score against Burnley is 1-5.

Jackson is gonna become a meme tonight as he squandered on a beautiful opportunity. It's not just Jackson but the whole Chelsea team failed today which again brings back to Chelsea being inconsistent. Bookmakers are valuing them a lot but they still are far from becoming a consistent strong team given they are one of the big 6 of PL.

Forest on the other hand did a great job with defending and attack. They scored only one goal but they managed to defend that till the end and have that hard earned 3 points. Really well done , Forest.

[piebeyb]

Chelsea still hasn't found the right solution.

almost tempted to bet on Chelsea, but I doubt it and it's true they haven't found their confidence at the start of the season, getting worse for the fourth week, don't look any better than last season despite having some pretty better players than Forrest should be able to get three points but it seems difficult for Chelsea to break through that.

I think Forest deserved to win and they played very consistently from the start of the game until the second half they maintained their advantage that had been obtained in the first half, Chelsea need to find a solution to overcome their club which is still far from expectations and looks bad, it's really embarrassing especially playing at home in front of all the fans

It's been another terrible start to the season for Chelsea. Apparently this season they will have to fight for survival again and it's bad that they lost points with their direct competitor).
In general, this is the first defeat of Chesley from Nottingham Forest since 1997, almost 26 years have passed. Apparently Nottingham were waiting for the club to buy Bowley.

Probably one Enzo or Caicedo is worth more than the whole Nottingham squad. So far even Pochettino can't fix the situation and make all these expensive players play and it seems that some mid-table club is playing, not a club that spent almost 1 billion on transfers.

[Stepstowealth]

Bookmakers are valuing them a lot but they still are far from becoming a consistent strong team given they are one of the big 6 of PL.

When Chelsea played against Luton and won, the fans of the club were happy that Chelsea were showing signs of improvement, and signs to do better this season, but now they have played a stronger and more threatening team, and we have seen that they have not really improved from last season. Chelsea still lack the ability to recover from games from behind once they are scored. Pochetino has no excuse as to why Chelsea lost because he has very good players at his disposal. In a few more games, If Chelsea continue with this unimpressive performance, many Chelsea fans may start demanding that he be sacked and replaced.

Well that's right, before especially before the season started to be honest I was quite confident with Chelsea with the various updates they have done, see they have spent a lot of money there and almost all of the players are now new ammunition that they have managed to bring in. I thought this season Chelsea would be better than last season, but well it turns out it's still the same, it still can't meet expectations and honestly this is not worth all their expenses in renewal. Maybe it's not me and you who are not finished with Chelsea's performance, especially Blues fans must also be very disappointed there.

Yes, that's right, and if I look at the statistical data from the results of the match between these two clubs Chelsea vs Forrest, Chelsea should be able to secure full points until the match ends, because obviously in terms of possession they are superior to Forrest. Honestly I don't know what's going on with Chelsea even with some of the players they consider quality but it's not proven. True, Forrest have managed to maintain the advantage they got in the first half. Apart from Chelsea, maybe I won't comment too much anymore, I'm also sure Pochettino knows what he has to do there.

In fact, Chelsea was able to dominate the match compared to Nottingham, but Chelsea had difficulty breaking into Nottingham's goal. Lack of player creativity is the first reason, but a lack of consistent strategy is also a reason. I didn't find Nottingham playing well except being really good defensively which combined with taking chances, it won them the game even though it was completely unexpected.

The bottom team uses a defensive strategy to win points against the top team. The weakness of Pochettino's strategy is that he was able to find a solution to find the net even though they had a lot of shots in total. Poor finishing is also an excuse, but of course Pochettino is under pressure at the moment.
