Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[trendcoin]

i see Man City has 51% of the ball possession and Arsenal only has 49% of the ball possession, as the host, Arsenal really played very well and directed, Arsenal even succeeded in making 12 'shots throughout the match, the goal was scored by Martinelli in the 86th minute, Arsenal emerged victorious, Declan Rice is indeed one of the best wing midfielders in the EPL at the moment, Arsenal is lucky enough to have him, Arsenal's opponent on the next matchday is Chelsea, i'm curious whether Havertz will make another assist in next week's match.

According to the stats it looked like the game should have ended in a draw, but Arsenal played better and got a deserved win.

Kovacic should have been dismissed with a red card in the 35th minute. The referee was really generous to him. Also, after Kevin de Bruyne and Ilkay Gundogan, I don't think Kovacic is the right man for Manchester City. They need a more technical player in midfield. The chemistry of the team seems to be broken. Also, Nathan Ake was one of the best in the game but he made a very unfortunate touch on the ball and turned Martienelli's weak shot into a goal.

Manchester City are starting to make me pessimistic about the title this season. Where are you Keviiiiiin! :)

[Oluwa-btc]

Thanks to Martinelli, that goal was much needed. Finally Arsenal beat Manchester City. The more important thing is, they didn't give many positions to City. That means City is not an unbeateble team. When you play with right tactics and give your all, you can beat them.
Spurs and Gunners have same points now. City is 2 points behind. The league will be very long, the team that maintains continuity comes forward. It's important to have a winning streak and win big games like that. Everything looks alright for Arsenal now.

For the first time since 2015 Arsenal were able to beat Manchester City in an English Premier League game thanks to substitute Gabriel Martinelli strike in the closing minutes of their crucial encounter. After over 80 minutes of play, the looked like it was gonna end in stalemate but Mikel Arteta's substitute who has just returned from injury proved to be the difference. The eruption from the stands at the Emirates stadium after that Martinelli's goal was a true testament that Arsenal fans had waited for a moment like that for a very long time. Arsenal are now joint top of the league table with their north London neighbors Tottenham Hotspur.

Manchester City off course did great but in this game, I saw they had fewer shorts on target. They created chances but not enough to score or be on target.

Pep Guardiola and his midfied was boring, the entire game was also boring not until the second half where we saw more of a lively game.
The substitution made by Mikel Arteta locked the midfied up. Thomas Partey, Kai Havertz and Declan Rice made sure to work together to keep the three points.
Arsenal deserves the win, they made sure they held Manchester City from opening them up.

I am really thrilled for Arsenal because the work they put into this game paid off in the end. It is not always simple to play with a side that already has a continuous winning record in the Premier League. Since Pep Guardiola took over as manager of Manchester City, the club has dominated the Premier League. It is a happy day for all Arsenal fans because they were able to bring an end to Manchester City's record of not losing against them in the Premier League since several years ago.

Today was their 13th match since their last victory against Man City, and it did not go well for the City team. What counts now is consistency in winning; that is the only way to stay at the top of the table. Arsenal has a chance to stay at the top if they maintain their current form for an extended period of time. I don't see them relenting now, especially after such a successful match day in the Premier League this season that will boost their morale more.

Manchester City off course did great but in this game, I saw they had fewer shorts on target. They created chances but not enough to score or be on target.

They did great matches previously, they didn't in the current match against Arsenal.
It is not a fewer shot on target, they only made a single shot on target. It is quite shameful that Man City attackers were only able to make 1 shot on target during the match. I'm sure everyone never expect this, how can Haaland and Alvarez fail to give big contribution in this match. Honestly, I really appreciated Arteta that he can make a solid defense to stop Haaland and Alvarez. 

Pep Guardiola and his midfied was boring, the entire game was also boring not until the second half where we saw more of a lively game.
The substitution made by Mikel Arteta locked the midfied up. Thomas Partey, Kai Havertz and Declan Rice made sure to work together to keep the three points.

Arsenal has a better midfield in this match. Rice-Jorginho-Odegaard performed impressively. They could create better chances for Arsenal attackers to score. Although Arsenal players only could make 2 shot on target, but they could make 12 shot attempts. It is obviously much better than Man City that only could make 4 shot attempts.

Today neither Arsenal nor Manchester City played the way a Premiere League title winner should play. About Manchester City, I'm sure their performance will improve quickly, but can Arsenal improve their level to win the PL? I don't believe in it, especially after losing the title last year.

What would you have expect when two elephants like Manchester City and Arsenal does meet. Both team has got to play with extreme caution as a lose in either side which was proven by the day would mean a fall on the table. Something both sides weren’t willing to give in on but, eventually, my that ample of mistake and deflection, Manchester City did give in with the ball coming off Ake’s face and found it’s way unto the net. There was nothing anyone could do about that and you can tell from the way it was celebrated by M. Arteta, Martinelli, the rest of the team and the fans. It felt as though they won the premier league trophy. I was amazed and it was such a wonderful time to score, the plus minutes and such an important goal it was.
Manchester haven’t been there best lately and Arsenal took full advantage of it.

I mean especially one thing was a really big goal opportunity. They were keeping Arsenal defense under pressure and Alvarez was nearly turning this pressure into a goal. David Raya made a big mistake but Arsenal must be thankful that it was a goal kick later on. Manchester City couldn't play as they wanted today.

Arsenal finally managed to take advantage of this in the last minutes. Martinelli's luck was also right beside him in that incident and he scored it. I can't even imagine how satisfying it must be for Arteta to beat his old teacher Guardiola here.  

[Wiwo]

Arsenal played a very good football by not conceding a goal in the first half but it's been a 50:50 performance just that Manchester City has had more control of the ball with possession of 45:55 respectively and City has been more offensive in the first half and two of their players are given yellow cards already but yes the match is going to have a winner from the performance am seeing but Arsenal needs to watch their back because they appear like a team playing with fear and they are doing more of defending instead of massive attacks hopefully when Saka comes on from the bench in the second half things will change for Arsenal.

Arsenal indeed played a very good football weekend and just as I said in my earlier comment,  Asernal is currently following their previous partten in the premiere,  but although,  Manchester city was taken unaware by the Asernal players and to a great extent,  Manchester City tried in multiple attempts to make an equalizing goals before the end of the March.

But unfortunately for them,  the lost it out and that is a great lose for the club since at most,  the could have manage a draw game instead of the lost game they played in this weekend as a defending champions.

They did really good against City I love their game play and how they read the game well against City, Pep Guardiola wasn't really happy with his teams performance and I believe he'll really caution his players against the next match after the international break, they've lost 2 consecutive matches and have dropped to the 3rd from 1st position with 18 points, I think they were so unlucky cause they missed several chances to win the game.

  Apart from Martinelli who helped them secure the winning, I think William Saliba also deserved to be praised as well for his good performance in the match, he marked Haaland and his impact wasn't really felt in the game, to the point that Haaland could get any shot or create any chance in the match, Arsenal's defense line was very strong today and that's why they didn't concede any goal today.

[AYOBA]

I had the time to watch today's match between Arsenal and Manchester city from the beginning till the end, and trust me when i say that this is one of the best matches for Arsenal when it comes to performance, in fact, I have never seen or watched Arsenal play this good against a bigger club like Manchester city.

It was a wow game for Arsenal, I was actually expecting the game to end in a draw, but Arsenal got lucky around the 80th minute of the game and scored their first and winning goal. Manchester indeed performed very badly to be honest, in as much as I did not pray for them to win the game, I was not expecting them to perform this badly, I could even count how many times Haaland got hold of the ball.

Over all, I am very happy with the outcome of todays match, once again, Arsenal have made their fans proud of the team they are supporting.

Today's game was thrilling, and Arsenal played admirably. I enjoyed how Arsenal defeated Manchester City today. This is the end of Manchester City; they will never again be on top of the table. Accept in their dream from today's export; that's how their point will keep dropping. Martinelli did an excellent job; he showed us love; he made us fans proud of the team and feel very much supported; congratulations to Arsenal once more. In the absence of Saka, I really enjoy how Jesus grips his wing.

Martinelli refused to accept being Arsenal's hero against Man City. He affirmed that Arsenal's 1-0 victory over Man City was thanks to the team's collective efforts and that he only contributed a small part to this overall achievement. Martinelli attacked brilliantly to help the home team win, but Martinelli remained humble.
Arsenal maintained a 1-0 victory until the final whistle blew. Thus, coach Arteta defeated Guardiola and his team for the first time. Arsenal maintained their unbeaten streak to share the top spot with Tottenham.

From what I've seen this season with Arsenal, I think they're gonna be more of a title contender than they did last season. Having been able to beat the two Manchester clubs is a good sign about how Arsenal have significantly improved. Bukayo Saka who's been the club's best player since the start of the season didn't play the game today against Manchester City because of the injury he sustained while playing in the UEFA Champions League competition in midweek yet, Arsenal still found a way to defeat the English Premier League champions.  

[Google+]

If you check again the stats, Man City won the ball possessions 52% and Arsenal only got 48% of the ball possessions. There is no significant difference between Man City and Arsenal, the match is quite equal if we consider the ball possessions. But it is very clear that Arsenal is superior if we check the shot attempts because Arsenal made 12 shot attempts, meanwhile Man City only got 4 shot attempts. It is because Man City missed the Bruyne who has a big role in managing the attacking. It is very different with Arsenal because their all key players can play at the match.

Well, Decline Rice played well during the match. But anyway, he is a defensive midfielder, he isn't a wing midfielder.

Without Kevin De Bruyne, of course Haaland finds it difficult to score goals. Because only Kevin De Bruyne understands Haaland's character well enough so that he can provide a breakthrough pass that Halland can complete for a goal. Even in this match, Haaland did not provide anything that could endanger Arsenal's defense. I saw that Manchester City was very strong in the first half by putting pressure on Arsena but in the second half their game was very weak because Arsenal were able to improve their game as best as possible.

I see that Pep Guardiola is very annoyed with this defeat because apart from failing to take top spot from Tottenham, Manchester City also recorded consecutive defeats because in the previous match they were beaten by Wolves and today they were beaten by Arsenal. Well, for Pep Guardiola, he is a genius coach, of course we don't have strong words to say about his bad performance this season. But the quality of the players has decreased quite a bit, like Haaland.

The meriam was not doing it first time, but it's happened 4 times. Leading EPL but losing the title. The winner will still manchester city. mehhh people just forgot arsenal's habit. 

It's totenham's brother. there will be another surprise to happen at the end of season. Just wait and see.

[TopT3ns]

Westham were good enough early on and attacked brilliantly. But due to Newcastle team's defense being very strong, westham team did not succeed in attacking in the middle. But meanwhile the Newcastle team attacked one after the other and the Newcastle team led by two goals in a row at the interval. First, West Ham team was ahead by one goal, but later Alexander Isak of Newcastle team proved that they can roar like lions with two goals. But the two teams saw a change in their fortunes and the game returned to parity. In this Westham team player Mohammad Kudus played enough role to bring the match today.

Westham's match against Newcastle was very interesting because it was seen that both teams were always attacking until the match was over and the result was a draw. Luckily, Westham managed to catch up with the score in the final minute and managed to score a goal. At least from the game that occurred, Newcastle had tried hard to always win. this match but it turns out that Westham is not easy to beat.

Well, Arteta and his Arsenal are gradually gaining the necessary confidence in their abilities, defeating their complexes and already making breakthroughs in the matches with Manchester City. Not only has Arsenal itself not beaten City in the Premier League since 2015, had a series of 12 defeats in a row with City, but Arteta himself, as Arsenal's head coach, lost all seven previous matches in the Premier League to City. Therefore, this match may well go beyond the unpleasant, but ordinary defeat of Pep Guardiola and may well contribute to the fact that Arsenal will finally win the Premier League this season. Arteta has all the necessary resources for this and the team has strengthened well before this season.

Westham and newcastle have been having almost the same stats but the different was on its ball possession. Newcstle was losing against westham during the first half and it surprised me how newcastle was making its comeback and make the result to be draw.
I did believe if newcastle could do that. Westham is always so scary with its counter attack, but newcastle can start to adapt westham's strategy and newcastle was scoring two goals after westham was leading the match against newcastle.
It's another significant result from newcastle. 1 point is better rather than got nothing against westham. Westham is a strong team right now.

That is what I noticed with Westham this season, they have improved because I thought that Newcastle will win but Westham are try to drag the attention of the public. Even for the ball possession Newcastle was lending but still that is how the game is some time.

But unfortunately for them,  the lost it out and that is a great lose for the club since at most,  the could have manage a draw game instead of the lost game they played in this weekend as a defending champions.

It looks like Arsenal is able to avenge their defeat last season by beating Manchester City in today's match. The Arsenal squad is really strong and their mentality is very ready when facing an equally strong team. I saw previously that someone said that Arsenal would have difficulty in this match because they were without Saka. But Arteta can rely on other players and managed to get 3 points in today's match.

Manchester City is indeed quite strong, but if Haaland has difficulty developing his game on the front lines, there is a big possibility that they will achieve unexpected results in the match they are playing.

Arsenal and Tottenham have been so consistent this season they have not tasted defeat this season. Both of them have the same statistics in their performances because they both achieved two draws. Tottenham only excelled in goal productivity so they managed to sit at the top of the rankings this week.

Westham had been changed drastically after moyes bought some great players that were improving the club a lot. I meant let's put our focus on its attacking line. Even though this club was not a type of club that was focusing into the ball possession but everything is fine caused by westham can use its advantage to build a fast counter attack. Im speechless after seeing how westham was scoring two goals through fast counter attack against newcastle and yeah finally newcastle made it to score two goals as well as westham.
No doubt if westham was very strong caused by this club is also having very good in building the momentum to did counter attack. I never thought that money raised from selling rice would be able to changing the club drastically.
So far so good. Westham can stay at the top 10 now.

This win is the result of Arteta's tactical success. He managed the game very well at 0-0 and was confident they would score the winning goal. Martinelli scored a really good goal. It was a bit of luck that the ball hit Ake but the shot was good.
Manchester City lost 2 Premier League matches in a row for the first time in 5 years. This alone shows how much Manchester City dominate the Premier League. Despite this, Arsenal are showing that they are strong enough to challenge them. Hopefully we'll watch a closer title race again.
