Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[hahay]

Tough tough game this weekend in the North London Derby. Both teams are in good form and hold the same points in the league. I am anticipating this game because it will be an interesting encounter and I hope for much drama and entertainment in this game. The last encounter Arsenal defeated Tottenham by two goals to nil. This time, Spurs are in a much better form and won’t back down easily but I think Arsenal will prevail in the end.

But indeed, based on the odds available right now, at least Arsenal is the favorite team to win. Maybe, because of the home factor, Arsenal are more favored to win this match. But even so, I personally feel there is no definite guarantee for Arsenal to win because after all, at this moment Arsenal and Tottenham both have a one draw result. Also in reality, the draw that Arsenal and Tottenham got this season also occurred when Arsenal and Tottenham played against mediocre teams. So in that way, I personally feel that a draw in this match could happen, and I don't care about Arsenal being the favorite because after all, at this moment Tottenham is also having a good performance just like Arsenal.

I understand that a lot of Arsenal fans are worried about Aaron Ramsdale position at the club after David Raya replaced him in Goal against Everton on Sunday. To be honest, I knew Arteta liked Raya from way back and he was going to give him a chance to challenge for the shirt. What surprised me was that Ramsdale has not commited any "blunder" so far this season but he has been dropped. That says a lot about the standards Arteta is setting. It goes beyond obvious blunders.
Raya's calmness and distribution alone already give him an edge. I saw the stats about crosses claimed since last season. Raya beats Ramsdale hands down. I’m sure he considered all these things before he made the decision.

I don’t know why the fans should be worried because it is clear that Mikel Arteta is rotating the squad to contain the many games and fixtures the team have to play in this season. Arsenal have champions league game coming up this week, I think it was wise to start Raya against Everton and Ramsdale to start in the champions league match, that way both players get to play.

Chelsea's performance is not even convincing for me. Aston villa has better gamplay than all of kids owned by chelsea. Aston villa is more mature than chelsea.
Chelsea is a club full with bunch of amateur players. I don't even know who the hell is going to risk their money to take chelsea that is playing like a relegation team.

It will be bad decision to take chelsea this time.

The game between Chelsea and Bournemouth over the weekend exposed the fact that Chelsea lack finishing even tho they have players who were capable of giving them good finish but sadly they don't have the coordination enough to get the players to perform maximally in that capacity. I expected Chelsea to secure a victory in that game but sadly I was disappointed as they played poorly and drew the game.

Chelsea's game play when placed side by side with that of Aston villa it's obvious Chelsea do not have a better play, Chelsea needs to be more organized as they seem otherwise to me. judging from the game against Bournemouth over the weekend. Aston villa on the other had have a better play but I don't think it's good enough to be contenders with Chelsea or other bigger EPL teams.

The caliber of players in Chelsea are good beyond classifying them as amateur, they only had some mismatch in technicalities which if fixed they can do better beyond the view of amateur, although the season is still fresh they still have time to change the game and give the team a redeeming image that will be celebrated by fans and the team it self.

Manchester United never ends getting bad news and this time it is the turn of their right back, Wan Bissaka, who has been declared to be out for 2 months due to his injury. Wan Bissaka suffered an injury last week when they hosted Brighton but not only did they lose, but now Manchester United have lost one of their important players. We know that initially Wan Bissaka was very doubtful as a starter but thanks to his hard work he is now the main choice for Erik ten hag.

If we look at the defender options available at Manchester United now there are not many choices and this could be a problem that will be difficult to solve. Moreover, today they have an away UCL match against Bayern Munich and seeing Manchester United's readiness, it is clear that they are very doubtful about winning. On the other hand, for EPL matches it will of course also be a loss if the players continue to suffer injuries and I think if this continues it is not impossible that Manchester United will finish in a bad place this season.

it is clear that Bissaka's injury is a loss and a problem for United's defense. Ten Hag will definitely be very confused about this, and there are not many names he can choose to face Munich. today maybe United will give up on Munich if their performance is not much different from before.
Ten Hag really had problems in defense. and losing Bissaka will certainly open up even more gaps. Maybe this will be Munich's opportunity to score lots of goals.

look at United's performance in the first 5 matches in the Premier League. of course fans won't like it. Even though there is still quite a long way to go in the season, if Ten Hag doesn't do something in United's defense, I'm sure this half of the season will be bad for United.

Seriously, Chelsea is no longer performing as a club with big names and players. I am seriously worried why a club that has many expensive players is so weak like this. With the set of classic players that Chelsea has, I expected them to be fighting for the Premier League, not even to the top, but currently Chelsea's performance is getting worse. As this case is, I don't even know who to blame for the weak performances. Is it the coach of the players? Because all the players they gathered were doing well on their previous team, why is it that when they become Chelsea players, it is hard to perform like their previous club?
 
Chelsea is playing against Aston Villa at the weekend, and we see how great Aston Villa is performancing  currently. So this shows that Chelsea will likely lose the match or luckily draw it because, if I check their current performances, Aston Villa have more chances to win the game, but let's see what happens. Maybe they win, which will be an improvement for Chelsea.

In the last season, when Ten Hag came and did not use Bissaka, many people thought it's the end for Bissaka's career in Manchester United but somehow he managed to get a position in the squad back. In this season, Bissaka gets a good position in the club and his missing by an injury even becomes a big problem for Manchester United. Ten Hag will have more issues with Manchester United defense system when in next matches, he will not have Bissaka.

look at United's performance in the first 5 matches in the Premier League. of course fans won't like it. Even though there is still quite a long way to go in the season, if Ten Hag doesn't do something in United's defense, I'm sure this half of the season will be bad for United.

Those matches are nightmare for Manchester United and they brought this bad form to Germany and face with one of strongest clubs in Europe, Bayern Munich. It is a high mountain for Manchester United even if they have best squad for the match. In reality they have some players who cannot play in Munich but the opponent is ready to beat Manchester United with Harry Kane and support from some good attacking midfielders.

Chelsea are going to host Aston Villa in their next game. Chelsea are favoured quite much by bookmakers but I don't have the same idea with them. Because there is literally no reason for this gap of odds. What is the reasoning in the first place? Aston Villa have started the season much better than them.

Before every Chelsea game, I believe the bookmakers have a bigger expectation of them defeating the next team. This could be due to Chelsea's squad depth and the number of talented players on the club. Chelsea lost to Bournemouth in their last encounter despite having more possessions and shots on goal than them, perhaps they were just unlucky, and bookmakers will give them a better chance of winning the next match against Aston Villa.

Only 5 games, there are still 33 games in the EPL. Last season Ten Hag made good progress. But this season he started with a difficult problem. Injuries, technicalities, and incompatibility issues with players. There is no end, Man United was a great team in those days, and these decades Man United struggled and always had problems that have not been exhausted until today. Although Man United is still better than Chelsea, who used a lot of money to buy players. But I'm not very happy with their transfer policy this season either. They spend too much money on players who are not too good.

I get pissed off when people compare Manchester United to Chelsea because Manchester United knows what their problem is and is already working to fix it. Even though Chelsea is aware of the problem, no progress has been made to effect the essential change. They keep losing to minor teams, how will they finish the season in a good position to even qualify for the Champions League? I seriously doubt it. They must wake up now and do what is necessary before it is too late.

These are sad times for Manchester United and i feel so sad for the team because loosing Wan bissaka to injury is not really what they need  currently since they'll be facing Bayern Munich in the Champions League today, I'm wondering how he got injured because he didn't really feature I'm the match against Brighton for a long time, and I didn't really see him leap or show any signs of injury, too bad for United.
 
 I feel so pity for Eric Ten Hag an his team because so far alot has happened and it not really easy to manage a club that's undergone numerous issues over the years beginning from the board, financial issues and injury crisis, well Eric Ten Hag would have to manage the options he has left in his team and so Dalot Is the preferred option left for that currently but the issue with Dalot is that's he's not very good defensively.

[slapper]

The chance for Cheslea is about 50 percent according to the rates we can see but the chance for Aston Villa is 25 percent and this shows us that even if Cheslea doesn't win this game still Aston Villa can't have too much chance against this team.

I don’t see Chelsea winning the match against Aston Villa. With the way Chelsea have been performing this season, I still choose Aston Villa to win the match, or the match might end up as a draw, which is really bad for Chelsea because they are already in the worst position. If they lose or draw Aston Villa, then they will be heading to the relegation zone, which is really bad for a club like Chelsea that has spent huge amounts of money and there is no difference in the club’s performance. I just hope Chelsea's coach will be able to fix all the problems that Chelsea is facing currently, but I don’t see Chelsea winning their next match.

I get your point. How Chelsea played had me chewing my nails. Always felt terrible for Chelsea, and seeing how things are today isn't great. Since they've invested a lot, they're at risk. After their tie with Liverpool, I believed they'd start. It appears the team isn't cooperating. Without playing together, I fear the worse. The Chelsea management must find a way to turn the team around. My aspirations are high for their match against Aston Villa, but I'm cautious

[shogun47]

The point is that there can't be any excuses anymore. Like, there can be one transfer window and a club buys three players at once and all of them fail or don't work within the team or with the coach. But Chelsea seems to have some kind of virus against success. It's crazy. I am sure that any other club with that amount of money would have done better than Chelsea and it's enough to just sack one coach and get the next. They have far more significant problems that should be solved on a higher level than just changing the name of the coach.

They lack tactics and play sluggishly. Additionally, there's a high number of Chelsea players injured. In the pre-season, they performed well. The current formation they're using isn't effective anymore. It seems like the attackers struggle to figure out what to do in the final third. They lack precision and collaboration. To be honest, the main issue is the lack of creativity; no one is creating chances. Since they have many new players, it will take some time for them because they are not the same team anymore.

Thank god that they have all the time they need... not...

That's the problem, Pochettino will be hiding behind the fact that so many things and players are new and that they need time to train the team and make it competitive. But now it becomes even more ridiculous because Joao Felix didn't do much when he played for Chelsea and now he has a different club again and so far it doesn't look that bad for him.

I wonder how patient they will be with Pochettino. Are they going to take action when he doesn't win the next three or four games? But what then? They wouldn't find a good coach because Chelsea is a project that has no winners in the end.

So this shows that Chelsea will likely lose the match or luckily draw it because, if I check their current performances, Aston Villa have more chances to win the game, but let's see what happens. Maybe they win, which will be an improvement for Chelsea.

Currently I haven't seen any different progress from Chelsea in previous matches, in fact they are like a weak club this season, the arrival of Mauricio Pochettino to train Chelsea has not really brought good results at the start of this season and went through several matches with bad results until they were knocked out at 14th position, that's why Mauricio Pochettino must be able to overhaul whatever he can do to make a difference.

Aston Villa is much better than Chelsea, maybe they can easily beat Chelsea when they were performing badly at the start of this season, but after I looked at the statistics, Chelsea sometimes plays better against clubs that are considered strong, so I'm afraid they will give a surprise too against Aston Villa. Even though I'm playing at home, I might avoid betting on this match even though I'm sure the result will be won by Aston Villa or a 1 - 1 draw.

[Mame89]

Of course Chelsea have a much better squad quality but is their game convincing enough? No way. I would never place a bet on Chelsea while they are playing this weak. I might think of betting on Aston Villa's double chance maybe as I trust them more. Chelsea just need to get rid of Jackson in the starting eleven as soon as possible too.

Chelsea's performance is not even convincing for me. Aston villa has better gamplay than all of kids owned by chelsea. Aston villa is more mature than chelsea.
Chelsea is a club full with bunch of amateur players. I don't even know who the hell is going to risk their money to take chelsea that is playing like a relegation team.

It will be bad decision to take chelsea this time.

It should be the Chelsea vs Aston Villa match, this match will be an advantage for Chelsea to be able to get three points at home. Remembering that Aston Villa will also leave for Poland on Thursday to play in the Europa League. Chelsea have a full week to prepare for this match.

Aston Villa had two days to prepare for this match so I think they were tired, and their concentration was broken. This is different to Chelsea who have to have an advantage to win (playing Chilwell on the left wing from an off-road position) so I don't want any unreasonable excuses from Poch about injuries. Need to organize the midfield and attack attacks with speed and be able to score goals. So, in my opinion, even though Aston Villa are on fire, they will lose against Chelsea this week.

Well Aston Villa will play in the conference league at least there is fatigue for Aston Villa, now only need to calm down for Chelsea and prepare their mentality to play at home, the article when hosting Nottingham they still lost and that is why many are skeptical of Chelsea in matches with any club.

Pochettino must be able to reorganize his strategy especially in attack which is sometimes not so sharp, they only managed to dominate the whole game but when scoring goals it was more difficult, but maybe this will be a defeat that continues because it does not get perfect points? I'm hesitant to bet on it even though it's a home game.

Chelsea have changed several coaches and have brought in many new players in the last 2 seasons but there has been no significant improvement in their performance, I don't understand where their weaknesses are even though they already have everything the club needs. Maybe they should stand with one coach and build unity for the long term like what Manchester City or Arsenal have done. of course, it is not easy to change a system or strategy every season because players will need to make adjustments again.

look at United's performance in the first 5 matches in the Premier League. of course fans won't like it. Even though there is still quite a long way to go in the season, if Ten Hag doesn't do something in United's defense, I'm sure this half of the season will be bad for United.

If you look closely, both teams are actually facing the same situation, namely player injuries. I think the only difference is the consistency of the two in achieving victory in their respective domestic leagues, in this case Bayern Munchen is more stable than Man United. In terms of squad depth, the two are also quite balanced, but in terms of coaching, Tuchel is still better than Ten Hag.

As we know, Munchen greatest luck is playing in front of its own supporters. I don't think Man United just lost to Brighton can be used as a complete benchmark. Regarding predictions, I think Bayern will win narrowly this time, and the possibility of a draw is very difficult to realize.

[JeffBrad12]

Have played only 5 games Manchester United loss three matches and winning only two matches, how possibility with 33 games left and Manchester United will face with bigger team such as Liverpool, Manchester City and Newcastle United how many matches will loss again? I don't see with Erik ten Hag progress during Manchester United still underperformance and many internal problem facing with his players. I doubt with Manchester United will finish on top fourth standings position for this season, if there still have Bruno Fernandez and Marcus Rashford I don't see any potential for Manchester United will back to the top performance. Erik ten Hag can't controlling well with their player have show individual skill than working with the team. The same with Chelsea looks not has chance will finish on top fourth standings place, they have loss top performance and Pochettino will sack as soon possible depend his bad performance with Chelsea.

He can't do anything anymore except waiting Mason Mount is fully recovered from injury, after that Bruno can be replaced with Mount. As for Rashford's position, it's really hard because there's no one can play as good as him, I think Ten Hag has no option than let Rashford to play.

Well, mount's performance is still shit. How can manchester united count on him even if he will be fully recovered from his injury? 2 mathces, 0 goals, 0 assists. It has not even worthy for the guy who priced 60 millions. Everything has fallen off for united.
The club has only bad defenders who can play for the club. Mount is not even filling me with confidence to the manchester united. Ten hag will not able to blame injury as the main reason for the bad result of manchester united.

Hojlund is a good player, he show a great performance in Denmark. He's not like Mudryk who's become a feeder in Chelsea and Ukraine.

He is good but since he still lacks of trust from his teammate and it makes him look so bad as well.
Chelsea and MU played like relegation teams. Major revamp definitely needed by both or these club will stuck.

Although Chelsea still haven't gotten their best form but still, I don't think Aston Villa will be easy to beat Chelsea. Because of course, Pochettino will try even harder to be able to make Chelsea rise at this moment. Because yes, if Pochettino still fails to produce good results for Chelsea, then I'm afraid Pochettino will be fired in the near future. Therefore, at least there will always be a strong reason for Pochettino to be able to work better to improve Chelsea performance right now. Because after all, basically Pochettino has the quality of a great coach, and it should be Pochettino should be able to overcome the big problems experienced by Chelsea.

[Pokapoka124]

Brighton must be thankful to the chelsea caused by the departure of graham potter to the blues has been making brighton recruited de zerbi as a new appointment which was able helping the club perform better.
Chelsea was getting the opposite result as potter has become a flop once he was coaching the blues. I don't even know what would happen to the brighton if the team was not recruiting de zerbi as a new coach once potter joined in chelsea.
Chelsea was a savior for brighton even though potter's performance in brighton was not so bad.

In my opinion, Brighton currently has the best scouting team in the premier league. How they sell their top performing players and recruit players that come in and make impact immediately is so impressive. I am talking about player recruiting but they also got a good manager after Potter’s departure. This is just an example of good the proficiency of management structure, it just makes things move smoothly and better.

Brighton have been playing very impressive football from last season. Even before the game against Manchester United they were predicted as favorites to win. Let’s not forget that they made European competition qualification last season. This team is good, they have a unique style of play that gives even top teams in the league had a hard time defeating them, they are not a team to be underestimated.

[Davian144]

Chelsea have changed several coaches and have brought in many new players in the last 2 seasons but there has been no significant improvement in their performance, I don't understand where their weaknesses are even though they already have everything the club needs. Maybe they should stand with one coach and build unity for the long term like what Manchester City or Arsenal have done. of course, it is not easy to change a system or strategy every season because players will need to make adjustments again.

Now it is clear that replacing a coach too often on a team does not guarantee good performance for that team. And this has been felt by Chelsea so it is very sad for Chelsea who have spent a lot of money, but the team's performance is still beyond expectations or expectations. I think Chelsea's management also needs to be improved in order to find out where Chelsea's weaknesses are because with a new coach and new players it is still not enough to bring about better changes for Chelsea.
