Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Rengga Jati]

I also expect Manchester City to start a winning streak after the break. The loss to Arsenal was a significant loss for them, but it was a predictable one. After all, Manchester City only loses three or four games at most in a season and this was one of them. It's bad that they lost to their direct rivals, but they can make up for it by winning their other matches.

Losing to Arsenal certainly felt more painful for Man City. Because after all, currently, Arsenal is his biggest and strongest enemy in the EPL. Every league definitely has matches with high levels of tension, and the EPL is no different. Man City and Arsenal are matches that are definitely very classy. So when you win this match, it will create a lot of prestige. Unfortunately at that time, Man City could not play optimally due to the absence of their two key players. And this may continue, so Pep still has to rack his brains so that they remain strong for the next matches.

When things get tough, Pep's tactical genius shines through. They play especially well at the end of the season. By remaining very strong mentally, Manchester City establishes a psychological advantage over their rivals. If there is a good winning streak after the losses at the beginning of the league, it won't be that important.

If they continue to work hard and get an injection of energy from players recovering from injury I'm sure they will manage to end their bad streak when the game returns after the break. Manchester City are still on a good track because they have a fairly close point difference with the teams above them in the standings.

So Pep Guardiola must be able to return Manchester City to victory in the Premier League in order to regain top spot from Tottenham.
The defeat against Arsenal was quite painful in that match because both teams played quite well but unfortunately they failed in that match.
Apart from that, Pep Guardiola also has to put pressure on his players to show their best form, such as Haaland who has to be able to score goals when the team needs to win.

The first half of the game was just so boring both sides did not do bad but Arsenal still on played better than Manchester City in the First half.
That should be a bad lose to Pep Guardiola, though I know he will kinda predict Arsenal would be getting three points since his squad has  not all of the players absent.
Arsenal fans are happy after the head to head 12 games lost to Pep Guardiola all alone.
Can Arsenal take same pressure to face Chelsea, for that game, I'm supporting Chelsea getting a win or draw. Arsenal has won too much.
Pep Guardiola will come up soon with a strategic plan. Soon!

Pep Guardiola is a very tactical man and his ways are always different and one step ahead of others. Their defeat to Arsenal will not in anyway affect their fight for the title race. I fear that they may comeback stronger than before after this break. Manchester City are known to be persevered and won’t give up until their last game in the season. When the existing first XI players are now becoming weak or opponents begin to understand their style of play, they usually use their backup players to replace them and win games for them. Pep Guardiola is use to doing this and I expect him to do the same even now if he has no other option on how to penetrate and win matches in the coming features.

Manchester city are just lacking the present of de bruyne because he is an exceptional midfielder and he just makes the difference in the team and his presence makes the whole team a totally different team and Manchester city I think it's just suffering from the de bruyne effect. But the loss against arsenal is actually exceptional because this gunners team have really stepped up their game and if they can continue like this they would definitely make a difference in the title decided.

A very good example is last season when Arsenal could have easily been champions but City surprisingly managed to dislodge them from the top spot... So I agree that at the beginning of the season teams just adjust and make their game... As for Brighton, they can really make a surprise in the match against City, both good and bad...

Arsenal's performance surprised everyone last season. Most people had confidence in Arsenal to win the league last season, but Arsenal surprised everyone with their performance towards the end of the season. Arsenal had a better opportunity to win the league last season. Arsenal was leading Manchester city which was in second position with a reasonable points which I didn’t believe Manchester city will be able to cover up those points before the season ends. Arsenal's performances have also been incredible this season. Let’s see how they end this season. Let’s keep on hoping their performance won’t drop before the end of the season. I can’t really say Arsenal can win the league this season.

You know Arsenal's main weakness last season was that their bench team was not strong. This is why their performance became completely unstable after several players were injured, and the group failed to get back to their truck. Manchester  City eventually won the title.

But if you look at this season the scenario is completely different.  from the beginning Arsenal is stronger this season, their bench team is also quite strong. So even if the players get injured, the coach has options. I think this is why Arsenal's performance is unlikely to be unstable. You have to admit their match strategy is very good, also the understanding between the players is also excellent. This is why they are the favorite for this year's Premier League title.

Pep Guardiola will definitely make improvements after this defeat. So Man City will be better in the next matches. My estimate is that Man City will indeed return to their winning trend despite all this. Because if Man City experiences defeat once again, it will have a negative impact on the self-confidence of the players in the Man City squad itself. So Man City will definitely try not to experience defeat again. And losing to Arsenal could be said to be surprising but it could also be said to be normal. Because Arsenal is currently much more stable. Meanwhile, Man City is currently experiencing difficulties due to injuries to several players. Against Brighton might be the match that determines whether Man City's performance returns or not.

Many of us do not understand the disease that accompanies loses. If a team, let's say Team A has a match as Team B and Team C. But they have to play Team B before Team C.  If Team A is able to beat Team B with upto 3 goals, Team C is technically defeated.
Why you see clubs like Manchester city always win matches is because of the fear factor people have for them. That fear will make coaches introduce foreign formations to play against the inform team and they likely lose. Since Manchester city has started lossing, don't be surprised if the Citizens surprised you once more

Losing a game or two at this point wouldn’t hurt their chances of winning the title again this season. In my opinion, they’re still looking good enough for it too. They’re still in top form and the loss to Arsenal should be a wake up call that there are other clubs that have renewed vigor are also determined to be in first position at the end of the season.
I doubt supporters faith in the club is wavering following the loss to Arsenal. Pep is an incredible coach that knows how best to utilize a players talent. Man City is in good and capable hands.

Arteta really made the most of last summer's transfer window. He has bought several quality players who can help the team stay balanced if their main players are absent due to injury.

It is believed that Saka's injury could cause problems for Arsenal in the match against Manchester City, but Arsenal can cover the gap with their reserve players. Arteta really succeeded in maintaining a balance in the quality of players from the main players to the reserve players.

I think Arsenal must maintain the opportunity to continue to be in the winning zone in the next match. Because Arsenal has an impressive reality this season because they have not experienced defeat in the first 8 matches this season.

[Velvet78]

I think one day we might see Arteta starting to manage Manchester City. The reason why I think like this is Arteta's being one of Guardiola's students.    When the time is right Guardiola would decide to leave Manchester City. It would be early or not but he won't manage this team forever in the end.

At that time Manchester City will need to find a manager who can continue from where Guardiola left. They would make use of a manager who wouldn't need to make huge changes in the system as well. That man would definitely be Arteta in my opinion. After doing great things with Arsenal he can reach the top of his career with Manchester City in the future.

Last season Arsenal also did something like that where Arsenal were at the top of the standings for quite a long time but when towards the end of the season their ranking was able to be shifted by Manchester City. The victory against Manchester City is not the end of everything for Arsenal because there are still quite a lot of matches that they have to focus on as best as possible so as not to lose a single point. I think Manchester City always has a gap to return to the top of the standings and that gap is what Arsenal must cover this season.

It is quite correct that you say Arsenal is stronger this season because some of their new players seem to blend easily with Arteta's style of play. But are they able to keep their consistent pace on the winning track?  In the Premier League, they don't have to focus on one team but on all teams because Liverpool can hinder their winning streak in the upcoming match. The teams will continue to show their best game in every match, therefore the competition this season will be tougher for Arsenal when compared to last season.

If Arteta didn't leave City to take up the managerial position at Arsenal, then i might agree with you that he would have been promoted from assistant manager to manager when Pep decides to step down, and if he had also gone to another team (that's not Arsenal), i would also agree with you that it is possible he would take over from Pep. But Arsenal is a club that Arteta loves so much and the fans love him too, i think he is going to be at Arsenal for a long, long time; and he isn't going to leave even if the managerial position at City opens up.

This is an interesting discussion because he is now on a good way with Arsenal and he is indeed developing the team and making it stronger. When Pep Guardiola finishes his project Manchester City and by then Arteta has not won the Premier League, but would then decide to leave Arsenal and go to Manchester City, I think it would harm his reputation because everyone would say that Arteta is this guy who couldn't it with Arsenal and that is why he took over this team that's fully developed and just needs some coaching and then he can win the title. Winning the title with Arsenal would be a completely different success story for Arteta from winning it with Manchester City in the future.

[Rampagoe004]

Man City can always beat Arsenal but then last week Arsenal managed to beat Man City. In my opinion, the same thing could happen in the Chelsea vs Arsenal match. That is, Arsenal can always beat Chelsea, but it could be that in the next match it will be Chelsea who can beat Arsenal. Although statistically I also agree that Arsenal will actually be much more favored. Chelsea have not found their best performance because Chelsea actually does not have a mainstay striker at the moment. Their consistency is also questionable. So it is not surprising that Arsenal will be favored by many people.

The problem is that currently Chelsea is in a bad situation. If you look at the statistics, this is something that has happened several times in previous seasons where Chelsea were often able to win matches against Arsenal. However, in the current situation at Chelsea, I see that there is almost no chance for them to win. Arsenal have not been defeated and Chelsea have suffered 3 defeats. Chelsea is currently the worst in previous seasons. I think it will be an easy win for Arsenal.

Sometimes it's happen and sometimes it's not, yet this is football. As a club with treble winners and manchester city has also a strong mentality to comeback as soon as possible. The citizen will be surprised us once more caused by city can lose/win against brighton.
Just because it's losing against arsenal and that means if it will be continuously losing against the teams after the match against arsenal. There will be some matches to come against brighton, united and bourne.
Im still expecting manchester city can get all three points from all those three.

Speculation is uncertain, even though Arteta was Pep Guardiola's assistant, this does not mean that when he leaves Manchester City Arteta will be his replacement. Pep Guardiola once said that Arteta has the right instincts when the team is losing, so changing strategy and installing the right players can give good results. Like when he beat Manchester City by one goal in Arsenal's home match yesterday, Arteta's ability to see the weaknesses of his opponent and his team is also good because he does not allow opposing players to shoot from close range in the defensive area.

He tried to place the substitute players further forward than their usual position and as a result they succeeded in reducing Manchester City's attack. Haaland didn't get space to score goals and the midfield was also unable to play more creatively as usual, this strategy succeeded in making Arsenal win narrowly against Manchester City.

But the loss against arsenal is actually exceptional because this gunners team have really stepped up their game and if they can continue like this they would definitely make a difference in the title decided.

Kevin De Bruyne's absence was not the cause of Manchester City's defeat because a narrow defeat like that can be experienced by any team when the match is almost over and if you remember last season they also lost to Liverpool with the same score as when they lost to Arsenal, so in my opinion this is really wasn't because of Kevin De Bruyne's absence but they were a little careless and Arsenal took advantage of that.
This defeat looks painful because it happened to their strong competitor and is a consecutive defeat this season, but that does not mean they are out of the competition from the title race because anything is still possible in the next matches, and Arsenal should not be careless like what happened last season so they failed to win champion title.

KDB was always contributing a lot.



that's above was KDB's stat. I shall remind you that if KDB was always playing against arsenal last season when city was beating arsenal with huge scores two times. Missing him was giving a very big impact to the club. You can take a look at his stats.
KDB has been also contributing a lot of assists to the club last season combined with 7 goals. We can also assume that if 16 assists = 16 goals from manchester city. How many games can be won with these goals? That's a lot.
THat's why missing him was affecting the performance from manchester city as there's no guy who can creatively helping striker to build its momentum.

And this may continue, so Pep still has to rack his brains so that they remain strong for the next matches.

Losing six points in two consecutive matches is a big loss for Manchester City, the defeat against Arsenal may be acceptable because Arsenal is one of the teams capable of providing competition for Manchester City this season. The absence of key players could have an impact on Manchester City performance, Pep Guardiola must devise a strategy to cover his team's weaknesses in the last two matches. Returning to winning ways is the only way Manchester City can maintain competition with Arsenal. The domestic league journey has not yet reached the middle of the season, there are still many matches to be played and anything can still happen during that duration.
