Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[onecall123]

I comprehend the challenge of playing with only nine players and managing to narrow the goal deficit to just one. However, avoiding red cards is also a testament to playing smartly. I trust that Klopp can instill a sense of caution in the players to reduce such incidents. These situations consistently put a team in a precarious position, making it tough to secure a victory or even salvage a draw.

Liverpool finished the match with 9 men due to two red cards, but they fought well against Tottenham. The second red card came in the 69th minute. The match was extended for 6 minutes. So, Liverpool played with 9 men for 27 minutes against a strong team like Tottenham and almost didn't give any clear goal chances. I think they played well and they came very close to getting a point from this game but in some matches big teams can have such misfortunes and I think Liverpool had such a day... On the other hand, Heung Min Son continues to play great football. After Harry Kane's transfer to Bayern Munich, he became Tottenham's most important player. I think he will have better stats this season...

Liverpool truly got the short end of the stick. I can't say anything about the referee, but they'll surely recover from this setback. Liverpool vs Spurs match was an utter mess. It's a bit comforting that it happened against Spurs, who have been performing well this season. Tottenham Hotspur secured the victory, but Liverpool's gameplay left an impression on me.

City finally lost in the league and showed that they are normal humans. Although it was a lucky win for Wolves, as they finished the game with only one shot on target and two goals. Sometimes we watch matches like that. One team shot more than 20 times and other defensive team get the win.
Arsenal and Tottenham won. That's good for competition. I don't want to see City to make 10+ points difference and get the title easily. This season we don't see Chelsea, Manchester United or Liverpool in the title race but we watch three team competing for the trophy.

Interestingly it isn't totally rare that the team with less shots and shots on target eventually wins the game. I think all of that began when teams tried to adapt to the Barcelona tikitaka and ball possession was what won them the game. But over time it became harder as other teams knew that it's all about defending, about giving a hard time to score no matter how close it gets. This is what they focus on. Of course there is also luck involved, but it's not like the favorites win all of their games 5-0, in fact it is much closer often times. Manchester City had a couple of games with insane ball possession advantage and shots and yet it took them very long to get through the defense and score. It's good in my opinion as I don't really like the leagues when there is one third of the teams destroying all other teams almost every game.  The Premier League is by the best league for that reason. You can't just go to Luton town and expect to score 5 goals, not even Manchester City. Money does play a role, but surprisingly the quality gap between the teams with more and with less money seems to have decreased, or am I the only one thinking that?

Brazilian superstar Anthony was temporarily banned from Manchester United for physically abusing his girlfriend. Today when I was scrolling through my Facebook news feed, a news flashed in front of me that the allegations made against Anthony were completely false. Since the allegations made against him have been proven false, the police have allowed him to return to the field and there should be no further obstacles to his return to the field, and the Brazilian star will be able to enter Manchester United's field from the next match.

I posted just to be sure because newsfeeds often contain false news

There was already a news going round  confirmed by Man Utd that he is returning to training thus I think all the allegation labelled against him doesn't hold water and this is the best time he returns the club  to assist the  underperforming club atleast his selection into the first team would make a difference in their attack, recall Erik ten Hag is under pressure due to the team poor run so far both in EPL and UCL and part of the team problem is that their final third hasn't been scoring goals Højlund and Rashford the major culprits had miss scoring opportunities probably the arrival of Antony would make their attack more formidable and with more options for the manager.

One of the most interesting results of the week was in the Aston Villa - Brighton game I assume. I was expecting Aston Villa not to lose. However this was just too much. I don't know how they managed to win this game by a score like 6-1. Brighton gave up on the game very quickly and it was just a destruction later.

Ollie Watkins was the man of the match clearly. He made a hat-trick and attracted the attention to himself. Maybe he isn't the top scorer but he is one of the best versatile players in the league currently with 4 goals, 3 assists.

I really appreciate Aston Villa performance in the match against Brighton, regardless of the result, in my opinion it was a little excessive and far from expected. However, this shows positive results for Aston Villa in the next match. If Aston Villa is able to maintain its performance, it is possible that facing Wolves will not be a problem. It comes back to whether Aston Villa can prove that or not. Because to be honest, a club like Brighton with quality players was able to be overwhelmed by the pressure from Ollie Watkins et al. This means that Brighton made a big mistake because at the start they thought that Aston Villa was not a threat.

Two coaches which done impressive performance in this season were face to face and Emery U having amazing time as his team Aston Villa completely bring down Brighton and then give them lesson of the season with the score of 6 - 1 even many were expecting win but mostly were not having any idea that Aston Villa can win this match by this margin with this win now they are at the 5th spot and Brighton is out of the top ranks which is not good for them after having impressive start of this season now they have another challenging match against Liverpool which is angry after foul lost against Tottenham and Brighton have to well-prepared for this match.

Aston Villa are surely at their best and now have fair chance for staying at the top for few more weeks, but now they are also having next challenging match against Wolves at Molineux Stadium which is at the moon after beating league leaders Manchester City.

City finally lost in the league and showed that they are normal humans. Although it was a lucky win for Wolves, as they finished the game with only one shot on target and two goals. Sometimes we watch matches like that. One team shot more than 20 times and other defensive team get the win.
Arsenal and Tottenham won. That's good for competition. I don't want to see City to make 10+ points difference and get the title easily. This season we don't see Chelsea, Manchester United or Liverpool in the title race but we watch three team competing for the trophy.

It was surprising to see City lose against Wolves. But that's their match statistics. City were unlucky and Wolves got a lucky win with minimal statistics.
What really surprised us again was when Simon Hooper trended on Twitter with an edited look wearing a Spurs jersey.

Who knows, Manchester United and Chelsea are too late to get hot in the competition for the trophy. Maybe they will start in the second half of the season.
Liverpool are still on track to win the trophy because the difference in points with City after being defeated by Tottenham is only two points.

Haha,,,, I thought it was going to be 3-1 but we know Manchester City will have to be unlucky even if they play like they keep attacking while Wolves with few shots are able to win, I said this is quite dramatic, the Manchester duo must lose in the same week.

This season the points will not be too far away it will be close.
Spurs if not only Liverpool players do not come out two people, it will definitely not be a Spurs victory but lucky enough at the end.

Chelsea and Man United will be bottom or middle of the pack? I don't think I'll see them above the top 4, if Liverpool it's still very possible, they lost last night because they were short of players due to red cards.

[hahay]

Nottingham Forest really fought hard to secure a point at home after having equalized from a goal down by Brentford.
The result means both teams will remain below the middle of the premier league table and anyone like myself who placed a bet on an above 1.5goal margin will have gotten a green tick for successful prediction.

I feel that Brentford didn't start this season well, because in fact, up to week 7, Brentford has only won once and Brentford has drawn more often than not so far this season. But yeah, while for Nottingham at least they have put in a great effort so far. Because, in reality, Nottingham is still trying hard in this match even though Nottingham is only playing with 10 players. But at least, at this moment, Nottingham has a better position than Brentford in the standings, and at least that is also a great achievement for Nottingham so far this season.

Did you read something that Fabrizio Romano posted on platform X two days ago?
Antony appears to have been training with his teammates at Carrington and is likely to be in the Manchester United squad for the next match.

So of course this is good news because Ten Hag will likely get new resources to play better in the next match. Ten Hag is still trying to get the best form out of his team at the start of the season, but things are not going smoothly for him.

I quote it for you here: https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1707698055623954792

BREAKING: Antony back to training and available for selection, Manchester United statement confirms.

"Since allegations were first made in June, Antony has co-operated with police inquiries in both Brazil and the UK, and he continues to do so”.

"As Antony’s employer, Manchester United has decided that he will resume training at Carrington, and be available for selection, while police inquiries proceed. This will be kept under review pending further developments in the case”.

"As a club, we condemn acts of violence and abuse. We recognise the importance of safeguarding all those involved in this situation, and acknowledge the impact these allegations have on survivors of abuse”.

Of course if the referee is not wrong then Liverpool will get points. But how to follow up with this referee error? Even though it has used Var, it seems that there are still enough weaknesses that can occur. How many sophisticated tools if the final decision on people can still be potentially wrong. But the situation should have the match paused, so that the referee could carefully review the var.
Via ESPN's Twitter
The PGMOL have released a statement acknowledging that a "significant human error occurred" when Luis Diaz' goal was disallowed for offsides.

Experiencing one defeat in the EPL league is not a bad thing for a big club, after all, Manchester City has had enough consecutive wins from the several matches they faced at the start of this season. There are times when they lose or get a draw, no one will ever know about that, anyone who bets on Wolves with big betting odds will definitely win big.

We don't know the exact reason why Manchester City lost, but I'm sure that Guardiola has mobilized his team to continue winning, but they are also human, they must feel tired, so it's normal to experience defeat, however, with Manchester City's defeat, competition at the top of the standings is now getting tighter. this season. BTW, even though they lost, Manchester City is still at the top of the standings.

Indeed Brighton and Hove Albion's  heavy defeat away to Aston Villa was a very interesting and entertaining match to watch. Brighton before the game bad were better than the host in terms of overall performance in the English Premier League since the start of the season as they had already won 5 and most just one of their first 6 league games of the season while Aston Villa had won four and lost two league games before the game. So many had expected the match to be a very difficult one for Aston Villa but instead they made the game look very easy from the first half of the game.
Ollie Watkins was just on fire in that game as he scored three goals and had one assist against Brighton.

The Brighton team was in a good rhythm after a three-match winning streak. And so it was unexpected that Brighton would lose this match. I expected the match to be competitive. And one team will win narrowly. But the scenario has been completely changed by the players of Aston Villa. Aston Villa showed dominance from the first minute of the match. And the team took a 3-0 lead in just 26 minutes of the first half. Brighton made several attacks but they could not put up any resistance against Aston Villa. Aston Villa showed great dominance in the second half like the first half. They also scored three goals in the second half. Brighton conceded a humiliating 6-1 defeat.

Obviously this was a shocking and embarrassing defeat for Bighton, the match ended with a score of 6 - 1 and the victory was on the side of Aston Villa. Honestly, I was also quite surprised to see this final score, because as we know Brighton is a team that can usually always be a big threat to clubs that have strong performances such as Manchester City, but strangely well they look weak when faced with teams that have equal strength or even much weaker than them.
In this match Aston Villa was truly extraordinary, as you said in the first half alone this team was able to excel 3 - 0 from Brighton, there was really no significant resistance from Brighton, honestly I don't know what happened to them, and I think maybe they had difficulty building cohesiveness on the field and were also too careless so Aston Villa could easily create many successful opportunities, honestly I was very impressed with Ollie Watkins' performance there, he successfully created three goals and contributed very well to his squad's victory.

I don't think the Brighton team is weak at all.  This team is strong and has the ability to perform well against big teams . This season too, the team won the away match against manchester united 3–1, beating Newcastle 3–1 . But the problem is that their performance is very erratic. This team is capable of playing well, but cannot maintain consistency. Players need to be more confident. If the players are confident then maybe we will see consistency in their performance. .

We have to admit that Aston Villa played brilliantly in this match. Their performance was mesmerizing. The team won the last match. And Chelsea also beat Aston Villa. The team is now at the fifth place in the points table after getting 16 points in 7 matches.

[FanEagle]

Once again United lost. This is getting to a point where it is not recoverable and they are going to for sure end the season at a terrible terrible place. Considering they do well one year and bad one year, it can't be about the manager. First they ended up being second in 20-21 season, but then in 21-22 season they ended up 6th, and then last year once again third, and this year they are doing terrible.

As we can see from this type of changes that we are going to end up with some sort of result that would not be sustainable, and they can't keep having one good season and one bad season, they need to find some sort of balance between them and do alright. I would say even being fourth for 4 years in a row would be better than this.

We are aware and know very well, no matter how strong a team is, sometimes they will experience defeat. whether it's a player who is underperforming, a mistake by one of the players, or unlucky factors. Well, that's what happened to City in the match against Wolves. even though, City had 23 total shots, 8 shots on target, but what was more unfortunate was that they didn't have a single big chance. even though in reality, City controlled the match. As for Haaland, in this match he was unable to add to his tally of goals. Fortunately, they are still at the top of the standings even though they are 1 point behind Spurs and Arsenal.

As for Spurs, in the match against Liverpool they were really lucky which ended in victory for them. I don't know how long Ange Postecoglou will keep his team on the right track. However, my prediction is that they will not last long to remain in the top four of the Premier League standings.

Arsenal, I'm happy they won the match and reduced the points gap from City. in the match against Bournnemouth, it seemed like Harvertz was given the opportunity to score from the penalty spot. Thus, it is hoped that he will be even more motivated for future matches.

For United, Ten Hag still has the opportunity to take his team to the level he wants. but before that, he had to solve all the problems that occurred in their camp.
Chelsea, this team is difficult to predict. Moreover, if they continue to rely on Nicolas Jackson as a center forward.
Liverpool, in the next few weeks, they will have difficulty playing their matches. the absence of a player who was given a red card, Gakpo's injury. make, Jugen Klopp has to think about other options.

An article from manchester evening has been also explaining it very well.

Cavallin's lawyers have now issued a statement on her behalf following the footballer's return to his club. The statement reads: "Gabriela Cavallin's attorneys inform that the crimes committed by the player are still being investigated by the Manchester Police and also the Brazilian Police, which is why we believe that he will soon be sent to court, where he will have to face a trial.

I don't even know if antony was temporarily banned by manchester united. The news said that if antony will be investigated by manchester police. The latest news has informed that if his ex girl friend is now accusing him for a physical attack toward him.
Antony's problem has not yet fully solved at this moment. It will be so bad caused by united needs him as soon as possible to face hard fixtures that will come soon.

It's so hard to know which is a legit news these days. There have been many writers were writing fake news for traffic only.

This shows that nobody is perfect in whatever they are doing. It was even a small club that won Man City and not a big club. However, City has been the most consistent club since the beginning of this season and yesterday was their first lost, they ain't unbeaten anymore.

Football is judged by how many goals that was able to hit the back of the net and not by how beautiful well, your performance was. Luck sometimes is what a club need to win the game and when that lucky isn't there, you will get defeated by even a weakling.

So I will say that Wolve was lucky and that was why they won the game with only their few shots on target, and City lost with so many shots but none could hit the back of the net.

Antony is a very important player for Manchester United. Erik Ten Hag will be the happiest that the slander against him has been revealed and the player is found innocent. It was bad for them to have such a player and not be able to use it. I think we can see that they are more organized offensively now.

[Blitzboy]

Man United is having too many problems under Ten Hag this season, and the pressure on him is getting bigger and bigger. They are in crisis after losing consecutively in important tournaments. Coach Erik Ten Hag is at risk of being fired if he cannot improve the team's situation. He has no excuses for Man United's worst start in the Premier League. The home crowd booed Old Trafford throughout the match, suffering a bitter 0-1 defeat to Crystal Palace.
Maguire doesn't start, who will be the scapegoat for Man United fans, coach Erik Ten?

Naturally, Manchester United fans booed at Old Trafford, because Manchester United were unable to score a goal back in that match even though Manchester United was superior in terms of possession of the ball. This is not only embarrassing for Manchester United, but also painful for the fans who were there because the fans hope that Manchester United can win at home when facing Crystal Palace. However, that didn't happen and the fans even had to swallow the bitter pill when they saw their proud team lose at home.

And its so upsetting to see the choices being made. Its so clear to me that Manchester United is in a free fall. I just have to point out Ten Hag's strange choices! Why in the world is Rashford being picked over Garnacho, especially since it was clear how important Garnacho was against Palace in the EFL? I cant stand seeing Rashford, who isnt playing his best, lose the ball over and over again, making it easy for Palace to counterattack. This is clearly bad, and I dont understand how Ten Hag cant see this. Fans' frustration is understandable given this. Can the team move forward with choices that are so obviously wrong?

[Issa56]

EPL this weekend is totally out of predictions, gamblers loses money due to the inaccurate prediction forged for there wagers on these games.

Lots of people will be losing their bet this weekend. The result of matches yesterday was really unpredictable, no one expected Manchester City to lose to the Wolves. Since Manchester City is really in form and they haven't lost any matches this season, no one was expecting them to close to a club like Wolves. Most people will pick Manchester City to win in their bet. Since Manchester United won Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup, everyone was expecting Manchester United to win them in the Premier League also, but Manchester United was defeated. I wasn't expecting that many goals from Aston Villa, but they surprised everyone. Aston Villa won Brighton 6-1, which was really surprising. Aston Villa performed incredible well in the match.

I think we all now will be enjoying the league, we are now seeing unexpected results from different clubs, the league is now getting tough, and currently, I think no club should be underestimated. The league was just boring before, but now it's getting interesting. I am sure all clubs will try their possible best to improve their performance, strong clubs won't underestimate the weak once.

I honestly don't know what exactly happened to Manchester United, which is certain this season they are worse than last season. Now the performance and appearance of Ten Hag's squad is far from consistent, defeats still dominate them on the standings in the few matches they have passed since the beginning of the season. Obviously it is very reasonable, the facts that happened were very far from the expectations of their supporters, let alone Manchester United playing at home but having to experience defeat from a squad that I think is not too strong and ordinary, this is very embarrassing even until the last minute of added time they still have difficulty creating opportunities to produce goals.

The rest of course there must be a very deep disappointment from their supporters due to the results of this completely unexpected match, honestly I also did not expect that until the end of the match Manchester United really could not get a goal back at all even to equalize even though it seemed very difficult. With an embarrassing result like this I hope Ten Hag has to do something to fix it, the prestige of the team is very important.

BTW, even though they lost, Manchester City is still at the top of the standings.

Indeed, something like this could happen to a big club, especially Manchester City, we know that any team will definitely have difficulty beating it. However, it must also be acknowledged that Wolves are the first team to beat Manchester City this season.

It is true that even though they lost, Manchester City are still at the top of the standings with 18 points, but this does not make them calm because the two teams from North London, namely Spurs and Arsenal, are now closer to Manchester City with only 1 point.



Anyway, talking about Manchester City, next week they will have a big match against their rival last season, namely Arsenal, and I know that so far Arsenal have never won against Manchester City. However, Manchester City's previous defeat will certainly be an opportunity for the Gunners to overthrow Manchester City at home and at the same time break Manchester City's unbeaten record when they meet Arsenal in that match.
