Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Republikcoin.com]

It's a tough one for Gunners and very much possible that City might be able to pull of a win here but Gunners have improved a lot and at this point they are the only one close opponent to City. Rest are not that consistent so I am really hoping for an Arsenal win here as this will change the title race exciting from the beginning. We need some change in our tactic a bit and suprise City with our performances and I hope Arteta has something special planned out for the game against City.

After the defeat in the Champions League, this was a major blow for Arsenal, the team nicknamed the Gunners had not been defeated in several weeks, the team led by Mikel Arteta did not drag on or mourn the defeat for a long time, another match was waiting, and the schedule was so busy that players need to maintain extra stamina, there are several injured players in the Champions League, this will make Arteta worry about the next match against Manchester City, Arteta has to change tactics in the match scheme later, which player is suitable for the match later, only Arteta can know the potential of each player, playing and being supported at home creates enthusiastic motivation in chasing numbers in the Premier League standings.

Now Arsenal's players have almost even quality between the main players and back-up players and Arteta knows better which is best for this team, I think their defeat in the UCL will not affect their performance against Manchester City this weekend, in fact Arsenal's victory over Manchester City in the meeting Lastly, these two teams have made Arteta's team more confident going into this match.
And because Arsenal will be playing at their home ground, it makes them even more confident, of course.
This is a match between two top Premier League teams, of course it will be very fierce and difficult to predict, because both teams have the same possibility of winning the match.

The reality that Manchester City can lose other games, like the defeat to Wolves, prevents me from dreaming that they will win the Premier League this season, even if they defeat Arsenal once more.

Actually that's the game of football for you, no matter how strong a club is, sometimes they can be defeated by a small club whom can barely dream of wining them but however that Manchester City lost the match against Wolves doesn't mean they have lost form or the possibility of wining the premier League, looking very closely from there performance this season is almost the same as there last season even though they losses against Wolves but it cannot prevent them of wining the premier League again, perhaps in times of wining is almost impossible to expect a team to win all there matches irrespective of how strong they are. So there next match against Arsenal will be very tough as such that the both teams will try to make everything possible to win the game, but although considering there performances Manchester City stands on the higher chances of wining the game but who knows what will happen at last.

It's clear that losing several key players to injury would be quite worrying. Against Man City you need players with the best performance. Meanwhile, on the other hand, Man City, even though their players are injured, still have replacement options that are equal in terms of individual skills. Arteta will work harder to at least minimize it to prevent Man City from controlling the game. From the difference in strength, I think Man City will excel and win with a narrow score. But if, on the other hand, Arteta is able to block the movement of Pep Guardiola's troops, it means that the chance of winning could turn around.

This weekend, I'll be fully prepare to watch the big game, Arsenal vs. Manchester City at Emirates Stadium. We should remember the Gunners' stats: they are unbeaten in the EPL this season after seven games, 5W 2D 0L. Manchester City is an outstanding team, in addition Pep Guardiola is an uphill challenge for any head coach in the English Premier League. Mikel Arteta will become extra cautious when he meets City this weekend; it will undoubtedly be a challenging contest for both teams because injury has dealt them a heavy blow this season.

I'm looking forward to watching the Arsenal - Manchester City game at the weekend. Manchester City are favoured of course but the gap of odds isn't very big. Because Arsenal are also as good as them in the league these days. In terms of general quality and effort Manchester City are still one step ahead that's for sure.

But this time might be different. It depends on how Arteta will prepare his players for the game. Their last rendezvous here didn't end well for Arsenal if you remember. Arteta is Guardiola's student so maybe he can develop a new strategy to deal with them better this time.

It is a home game for Arsenal, which makes this game more interesting than I would otherwise expect. I think a game at Manchester City's would be a much harder task than this one. Arsenal is in great shape to go for it now, but this game also involves some desire for revenge for last season. If Arsenal beats Manchester City, I think it would allow people to dream again that Manchester City won't pull off a one team show this season again.

I don't know how Arteta's tactics is going to be like in this game,It is a game that would really be tough to predict,and considering that Arsenal are at home,they won't want to lose again to Manchester City, especially when they are playing at home infront of the wonderful fans.While Mancity will be playing without two star players, Debruyne and Rodri who is out for injury and red card.Mancity have lost the two games they played without Rodri,and Rodri isn't going to be available for this one.
However, Arsenal are not also complete in their squad,it is yet to be know whether Saka will play or not because of the injury he sustained in the Lens game,He needs to be checked properly before the weekend game.

Let me be direct: Why is everyone under the impression that Arsenal, even at home, can beat Manchester City? They're without Debruyne and Rodri, but don't kid ourselves! Manchester City is lauded on merit. Their team, even when disorganized, is difficult, right? The idea that their absence will hobble City bothers me. In their recent matches against Arsenal, this club has shown impressive skill and planning, winning and drawing. Could team loyalty's political nature be clouding reasonable judgment? Arsenal, while wonderful, need more than home turf advantage to win this match, and I for one am not convinced

But on the other hand I would like to ask you this question: Were you expecting Manchester City to lose against Wolves last week? I assume your answer would be "Absolutely not.". You know how dominant Manchester City were in that game but this still wasn't enough to get even one point.

Maybe you will say that Manchester City would play more carefully in this game. I hope to see the same thing from them as well. But I'm still leaving the door open for Arsenal to get at least one point considering their recent form in the Premier League.

Probably cu zit would be interesting later in season. I hope that Arsenal could be champ this year now to see again MNC. Hates even when was MNU era with Ferguson. This is my favorite league and I would like to see some action not just on the start of the season but also in the end with several clubs battle for this title. Personally hate to see usual suspects.

Well City might be the best team in the league so far, but don't forget that they're not very invisible, they've been beat twice by Newcastle in the Caraboa Cup and Wolverhampton in the EPL last week, therefore there's a possibility that Arsenal could beat them as well, even though Manchester City are more favourable than win the game, also Arsenal beat them in the community shield with their complete squad but they'll be without 2 of their key players which gives more chances for Arsenal to take advantage of.

 Both teams really need to win the game and that's why it would be a very tough game and uneasy to decide and i feel it might end up like their community shield match, cause Arsenal also might be playing without their star player Saka.

[Litzki1990]

This means that most likely City is more tired than Arsenal but this does not mean anything regarding the performance,I am pretty sure in a both teams to score yes as a bet for the game of this weekend while I would refrain on betting on money lines as although City is the favorite I don't know if they can deliver.

Nope, I don't think it's a problem because they have few substitute players, only De Bruyne and Rodri will not able to play. So I'm very convinced Manchester City will able to beat Arsenal. Arsenal without Saka is like Liverpool without Salah, their performance would be drastically drop.

Havertz, Trossard and Jesus aren't able to make a big change.

As good as Manchester City's bench players are, I don't think anyone can replace De Bruyne. Manchester City have done well in two Champions League matches and are in good shape in the Premier League too, so they have a good chance of winning against Arsenal. Last season Arsenal was a tough opponent for Manchester City but so far this season Arsenal have not had the best start so Manchester City have a good chance of winning against Arsenal in this match.

If Manchester City can get full points against Arsenal then it will be easy for Manchester City to get full points in the next matches because the opponents of the next matches are much weaker than Manchester City so it can be said that Manchester City will get full points in those matches.

Brighton has been pretty bad losing their first game in the Europa League and they haven't been that strong ever since they lost to Chelsea in the Carabao Cup (well to me Chelsea caused their down fall), but last night was a step up for them for getting a draw.
Was thinking they (Brighton) was going to lose that game but they brought up their A game and I think this is going to boost their morale into winning their next EPL game, I hope it happens that it will be easy.
Is not going to be that fun as usual when they win games easily but at this point in time they're going to get things right to get to that winning form in the EPL because it seems they have lost that momentum of trashing any team that comes their way. I'll still blame it on Chelsea for Brighton's lack of form in the EPL, to me is like any team the Blues get a victory against they will lose their form completely.

[klidex]

Arsenal vs Man City on Sunday is perhaps the biggest game of the season so far. Will be really interesting to see who comes out on top. Should be a titanic battle, I have a feeling City will edge it though.

You should be careful if you want to bet on these two club Manchester City and Arsenal are two elite clubs that will compete in the English league their performance has both developed well this season so it is difficult to prediction who will win this match but seen at the head to head records of both clubs Manchester City have dominated in their 5 matches but both clubs have almost the same it could be that this match will be a draw.
Manchester City must try to win this match if they want to stay at the top to get points from Arsenal and Pep Guardiola must focus on this Premier League match and not just focus on the Champions League just.

[Majestic-milf]

 At this point I still don't know where Kia Havartz loves to play and it also seems like some of the managers who have coached him including Arteta doesn't know the right place to play him. I saw this player to be the perfect replacement for Ozil but is not working at all.
 When he plays as an attacker for Arsenal his performance is as crazy as hell, very poor no effort of getting any contribution to help the gunners and this week we're going to see the gunners entertaining the Citizens, and I don't want to see a disappointing performance from the home side especially from Havartz because he has started almost all the games this season for the gunners but nothing to show for it.
 Where or how can Arteta make use of this guy that he can play out his best like he did when he was playing for Bayer Leverkusen?

I also bet on City. Even though the City squad is tired because they have just played a match against Leipzig in the Champions League, it should be noted that City has good squad depth. They have a second tier squad which is also good. I'm a little worried because City don't have Rodri due to the red card against Nottingham. He is the driving engine in City's game. His tempo setting actions are very dangerous for the opponent's defense. I don't know who is worthy to replace Rodri here.

Worry not, Arsenal is doing fine and will do fine after this as well. I'm only waiting to see how bad Saka injury was because that's Arsenal main guy, it been a long time since the guy went for injury, he is always extra careful, I don't know why this went bad, or perhaps over excitement of the Champions League but if worst happen, Jesus is going to take his place and then Nketia will be fit for center forward, we can manage like that until he is back from the injury, he will surely play the rest of the season.

It's when Arsenal is going to have important match they are having minor challenges but nothing to worry about. Manchester United worst they can do is equalize and they are going to have 1 point each because Saka might be out, they also have Kelvin and Rodri out for now and the last EPL round they had with wolves, they lose to them but Chelsea are going to lose to Arsenal, there is no any other ways around it, they are going to lose and we will rebound our spot in the standing. Not giving up until that 1st place is occupied.

There has been too much discussion about the Arsenal vs Manchester City match this week that many have forgotten that tomorrow Manchester United will compete again, this time the opponent is Brentford. Statistically in H2H Manchester United is ahead with 3 wins and Brenford only managed to win 1x and that too with a landslide score. Looking at the progress of the two teams so far in the standings, of course Manchester United is a little better but they are too bad for a big EPL team. Meanwhile, Brentford, which is a mediocre team, is not surprised that they have had a bad start to the season by sitting in 14th position. I think this will be a battle for 3 points for each team and of course this will be an important match this week for both teams to determine their next position. Will Manchester United succeed in breaking the series of defeats they suffered in the previous match this time, or will Bentford continue to add to the bad record for the Red Devils by beating them at Old Trafford?

On the one hand, it’s hard for me to imagine that United will lose another match. On the other hand, there are several factors in favor of this: Brandford rested and prepared for this game, and United wasted energy in the Champions League. But the most important factor that introduces insurmountable uncertainty for me is that it seems that some players deliberately play poorly/do not try because of a conflict with the coach.

They say that a student will always be better than the master, but in the case of Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta, the master continues to outperform his student. Perhaps at their next meeting, Arteta will demonstrate to him that he has learnt and improved. I'm not anticipating much from this match because, based on their recent performances, it's highly uncertain for me. Although the match may not conclude in a goalless draw, I'm not sure if it will end in a draw or if one team will triumph over the other.

The encounter between Manchester City and Arsenal will have a high level of match intensity. Due to Manchester City's recent loss to Wolves, Manchester City would come out fighting to win the game, while Arsenal would do everything in their power to exact revenge and show their fans that they are capable of winning the Premier League this season

The reality that Manchester City can lose other games, like the defeat to Wolves, prevents me from dreaming that they will win the Premier League this season, even if they defeat Arsenal once more.

The conclusion cannot be reached just yet because Manchester City was defeated by wolves. This is only their first loss of the season, and losing a game is usual as the season progresses. Their ability to reduce the amount of losses in order to maintain their lead is the greatest thing to do right now. In terms of the competition, they remain the frontrunner to win the Premier League this season. The perceptions may change later, but for now, they remain the Premier League title favourites.

Manchester City meeting with Arsenal is going to be very interesting game, this both teams were fighting to be champion of the league last season and this season the competition of getting the championship is on again.  Right now I Manchester City and arsenal as rivals, the  game will really be tough because arsenal is doing well this season and their players are strong to challenge Manchester City.

But I'm not still very convinced that arsenal can be able to win Manchester City,  Manchester City is a very dangerous team and always ready to play any strong team, I won't be surprise if Manchester City wins the game against arsenal.

If you talk about fatigue, I think Arsenal are also facing the same situation, so I don't think that reason is right, especially Arsenal have just lost in the Champions League against Lens. But I agree that Manchester City have better squad depth than Arsenal now. On the other hand Arsenal will act as hosts in this match, so I think that gives a big injection of motivation for Arsenal to beat Manchester City.
Betting on Manchester City is a good option, but of course it is not a guarantee that by betting on them we can win the bet.

Guardiola didn't too worried losing Rodri at Manchester City squad because at this team there are several players who can be played as Rodri position because recently Guardiola was attempts to played Matheus Nunes as holding midfielder and the result is very satisfied him because Nunes can able to performing well on that position and last time against Leipzig Guardiola did some rotation to Manchester City squad that the players just like Nathan Aké or Jérémy Doku has starting the match from the bench so it's clearly Guardiola want to ensure these players in the good fitness while against Arsenal this sunday

Recently i have checked the odds for them and the bookmakers was giving high odds for these teams and Manchester City as the favourite with odds @2.41 and we all know based on head to head statistics since Guardiola train Manchester City they never lose from Arsenal although at Community Shield Arsenal has just beat Manchester City but at the normal time both teams were playing draw but this time Manchester City is more ready to facing this match and they probably will beat Arsenal

I agree with what you said that both clubs are similarly tired after their Champions League matches. Overall they have the same busy schedule, and that shouldn't be an excuse for the two teams that will face off in Week 8. Also, big teams like them should have a way of getting their players back to full fitness quickly because they are handled by professional staff who are specialized in that.
I honestly cannot accept if there is a team that makes fatigue an excuse. Because they are inhabited by many players who should also be able to rotate. Therefore, they must have an even squad, both the main players and the second-tier players to avoid things like what we are talking about here.

I believe that experiencing defeat is a necessity, especially considering that Manchester City still appears formidable with their best squad. Even in the match against Wolves, I think it was just one of those unlucky days for Man City, as evidenced by their dominant performance. Despite Craig Dawson's standout defensive efforts for Wolves, Man City managed to launch dozens of attacks.

Furthermore, Ruben Dias' own goal added a touch of fortune to Wolves, making their luck slightly better than Man City's in last week's match.
