Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Awaklara]

From the very first minutes of the game Chelsea has been in full control possessing the game but wasting chances and since they couldn't break the lock Brentford has found a chance to do just that in the 58th minutes in the second half of the game and for a team with a pretty robust defense like Brentford now leading with. 1 nil it's going to be difficult for Chelsea to win this match with their terrible crossings you can't win a game such poor crosses and passes that can't even get through your opponent in their 18 box yard.

Chelsea again have wasted this match and gave away three points to Brentford. This is the fourth loss for this season for Chelsea and it against a smaller team that every one would have expected them to have won without any stress. If Chelsea will continue playing like this, no one will have hope on them henceforth. Just in their last two matches they played a very great game and we all thought that their bad days are over now but they just showed that they’re not an inconsistent team to depend on yeah. This is such an awful game and I never expected such performance from Chelsea today.

It seems that Chelsea has not been free from the curse that made them play so badly. losing to Brentford with 2 goals without reply at home was really bad for Pochettino. he really got a hard slap from the results of that match.

in another match, Arsenal was already 2-0 up against Sheff. This result will strengthen Arsenal to catch up with Tottenham and on the other hand, bury Sheff deeper at the bottom of the standings without winning points in 10 matches.

Haaland is still the player with the most goals earlier this season. 9 matches scored 9 goals. Followed by Moh Salah with 7 goals. I think Haaland will still be the favourite to be the top scorer this season.

Here's a provisional list of the 5 names of EPL top scorers
1. Erling Haaland 9 goals
2. Mohamed Salah 7 goals
3. Son Heu Ming 7 goals
4. Alexander Isak 6 goals
5. Jarrod Bowen, 6 goals

Haaland continues very well this year. This kid is a goal machine. 9 goals in 9 matches is a great statistic. We see that he scores 1 goal in every match on average. Still, I don't think it will reach a rate like Guirassy, ??this year's big surprise. This year is his year in the Bundesliga. While we thought that Haaland would be the player who would score the most goals in all leagues, his most serious rival came from Stuttgart. I never thought about this possibility at the beginning of the season.

it is to too early to to say haaland will be the favorite this season after just 9 games in the EPL some of the key players who contributed to his success last season are no long with the club or faced one form of injury the likes of gundogan who is on a free transfer to Barcelona who contributed so much to his successful outing last season no longer there and also k.De bruyne the engine house currently injured has actually affected the haaland a little bit

I also think the same, and although Haaland is a very prominent player who is on everyone's radar all the time, I think things could turn out very well for the Viking if he continues with his good streak, but now he can be the top scorer of the PL only has 9 games and it's true and I agree, I think there is still a long way to go, the POL is one of the best leagues that exist and are classified, only because the level of football is very high and that is something that happens as it happens time, at one point many years ago I remember that I was small and the best football in Europe was in Italy, where the stars went to Ialia so they could do their thing, then it went to the League, in Spain where it was considered that The best level of football was there, so in this order of ideas it is believed that the best level is now in the PL, which seems good and demanding to me, for this reason I will always see that the best will be there Now I think that when football becomes more demanding, where will it be located? in what LEAGUE? In Europe or where?

This makes us think a lot that things can go in the right direction, I think that now things can be seen that yes, Haaland can be the undisputed scorer, but there is still a long way to go, if he is a player who focuses and if Pep Guardiola gives him the corresponding support and he doesn't block it like he has done, well he can go there although I say something, for me Haaland can be in a Real Madrid where the glory can be very big for him or but of course, let's see the performance he can have in Man City, because as I said, they have no resemblance to what they were before, for me City has lost a bit of the level they showed last season, I would like this team to emerge, and Pep is very nice to take a team forward, but he must make way for the best players to do what they can do well, and if there is one thing Haaland can do, it is score goals, and I think that is always his goal.

Chelsea right now is on the attack, and have been since before the second half.
I still wonder how Raheem sterling came to put on the number 7 jersey because it clearly doesn't suit him and the style or strategy that Chelsea plays with.
I know for fact that Brentford is playing to win or draw, with nothing left in-between as much as a win from Chelsea.

I don't really no what is wrong with Chelsea, there performance is getting worst by the day, today's match against Brentford I was thinking Chelsea will win the match but they end up losing the game.

Chelsea tactics is not working at all, so just like you said Brentford strategy was just a defensive play with the target of either to win or draw and the pattern actually worked for them.

I don't actually no the match Chelsea will be able to win because even the Brentford that won them are not even much on a good form this season because they have played 8 matches this September till now and they have only won 3 of there matches, lose 4 matches and draw 2 match which in overall performance is very poor, perhaps considering all this fact Chelsea was suppose to win the match today.

Well considering that Chelsea has given a lot to talk about, I wouldn't judge why they are losing control the level of the PL is not just anything, I am sure that the players in each game give their all, it is also the games with such strong teams They leave them in a more conservative way, so you could say that the game against Arsenal was very difficult, and this resulted in a draw, but everyone wonders why it is not so easy to maintain the level , the fatigue and the fact that it takes its toll on the players, then it could be said that what is most expected by many is to see a superior performance, but so far Chelsaea is emerging from a very deep and dark hole, where the coach was Considered in danger , and even so the things they can do are very different and of course everything takes its toll, but they haven't done anything wrong, last season it was something that was Disastrous, nowhere did I see that they could come out on top, and that is something that It can affect Everyone at Chelsea.

Mauricio Pochettino forced to intervene after furious Chelsea fan clashes with Nicolas Jackson vs Brentford

Mauricio Pochettino jumped to the defence of Nicolas Jackson after an angry Chelsea fan made his feelings known during Saturday's Premier League clash against Brentford.

It was an afternoon to forget for the Blues as second-half goals from Ethan Pinnock and Bryan Mbeumo sealed a 2-0 victory for the visitors.

Thomas Frank's side recorded their second league win of the campaign and climbed to 14th, while Chelsea remain in 10th as several players continue to struggle for form.

Nicolas Jackson may feel disappointed by his start to life in England's top flight. The 22-year-old, a £32 million signing from Villarreal, has scored just two goals in the league so far.

And after struggling for periods during Saturday's game at Stamford Bridge, one supporter voiced his frustrations at the Senegal international.

The fans are quite strong because they are very very Demanding , for me things when they are about how to make a player or many feel good on the fields , for Example things when they are quite strong should not be like that, it is Well , adrenaline is one thing , but you shouldn't mess with the players either, the Coach's opinion is fine.

[hyudien]

It's so unfortunate for Chelsea, just at a time when everyone was thinking that Chelsea is picking form and they lost this match to Brentford. Well, for me Chelsea did their best but their defense was too porous and I suggest Pochettino needs a lot of works to in the defense maybe he should try signing new defender this January transfer window.

This was same thing that happened in the match against Arsenal, Chelsea had every chance to win Arsenal in that match but due to some defensive errors Arsenal were able to come from behind and Equalize so I assume the problem is from the defense.

Chelsea has spent a lot of money to buy several players but the quality is low. It doesn't matter as long as the money keeps Todd Boehly broke. Since the start, there have been many problems in Chelsea management due to inappropriate decision making.
Chelsea returned to its initial setting when losing to Brentford. I was wrong because I was optimistic that the Blues could continue their positive trend. However, if in the end they are unable to score a single goal at home, this will be a major blow for the coach to evaluate his defense line.

[Ruttoshi]

Today's is Nketiah day as he scored the first and the second goal with a great finish. He has scored the second goal for his club on the 50th minutes of the match after the keeper pushed out the ball, Nketiah was at the right place at the right time.

Arsenal is in control of the match and they are enjoying possession. Shiefield united look very weak to stand the pressure mounted on the by Arsenal and I have seen that this is a clear three points match for Arsenal today. Nketiah hasn't had a hat trick before but who knows if he will be able to do it today. What a moment for Nketiah as he has gotten a hat trick in the premiere league, a super strike on the 58th minutes gave him his third goal.
Arsenal 3-0 Sheffield

Chelsea had a good game when they were beaten by Brentford, but they failed to penetrate Brentford's layered defense. Brentford really knew how to beat Chelsea today and it worked for them even though Chelsea were actually favorites to win the game.

Chelsea's main problem in this match was that they were unable to penetrate Brentford's tight defense, so they fired 17 shots, 2 of which were on target. Bad finishing means they always have difficulty finding goals, that's the problem Pochettino is still having difficulty solving for Chelsea. Defeat was inevitable because Brentford really took advantage of their opportunities well.

[xzone]

I don't think I've seen many players score a hattrick this season. Scoring 3 goals in just 58 minutes is a great achievement. I congratulate Nketiah, let's see if he can manage to score another goal in the rest of the match.
We can say that Arsenal is having an easy match, they win 3 points easily

[Marykeller]

The first half just ended and the both teams played very well, Brentford played a very defensive game against Chelsea which I think Brentford was tough in the first half which might not be easy for Chelsea to have advantage against Chelsea.  The both teams have chances of scoring goals in this match which can end up with a draw score. Chelsea's performance have really changed,  I can see good improvements from their performance unlike past games in the beginning of the season.

At the end of the match, Brentford's defensive strategies against Chelsea proved effective for them to win Chelsea by 2 goals. The way the game went to Brentford's advantage is not surprising to me. Before the game ever started, Brentford had everything planned out. They are aware that they will lose if they come out to challenge Chelsea on the field of play. For them to win Chelsea at home they should develop a strategy, which is a defensive game. Playing a defensive game should be the best and only method to defeat Chelsea at their best form.

[abhiseshakana]

Today's is Nketiah day as he scored the first and the second goal with a great finish. He has scored the second goal for his club on the 50th minutes of the match after the keeper pushed out the ball, Nketiah was at the right place at the right time.

Arsenal is in control of the match and they are enjoying possession.

What a moment for Nketiah as he has gotten a hat trick in the premiere league, a super strike on the 58th minutes gave him his third goal.
Arsenal 3-0 Sheffield

This match will be an easy win for Arsenal because they really dominate the game. Apart from that, Sheffield United is a bottom team which in fact is at a very different level from Arsenal, so there is no reason for Arsenal to lose this match, moreover, they are playing at home. Nketiah played very impressively and managed to score a hat trick.

[bitzizzix]

From the very first minutes of the game Chelsea has been in full control possessing the game but wasting chances and since they couldn't break the lock Brentford has found a chance to do just that in the 58th minutes in the second half of the game and for a team with a pretty robust defense like Brentford now leading with. 1 nil it's going to be difficult for Chelsea to win this match with their terrible crossings you can't win a game such poor crosses and passes that can't even get through your opponent in their 18 box yard.

It seems that Chelsea has not been free from the curse that made them play so badly. losing to Brentford with 2 goals without reply at home was really bad for Pochettino. he really got a hard slap from the results of that match.

in another match, Arsenal was already 2-0 up against Sheff. This result will strengthen Arsenal to catch up with Tottenham and on the other hand, bury Sheff deeper at the bottom of the standings without winning points in 10 matches.

Completely beyond predictions, perhaps many think Chelsea will continue its positive trend and will beat Brentford at Stamford Bridge. However, in reality, Chelsea is still not consistent and losing 0-2 to Brentford at home is a bad thing for Chelsea.
And what was even more embarrassing was the second goal scored by Mbeumo in the 90+6 minute and it was stupidity by Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez.
Arsenal vs Sheff currently the score is 3-0 and all the goals were scored by Eddie Nketiah and he scored a hat trick. And if Tottenham slips in the next match, Arsenal will easily overtake Tottenham because they are only two points behind Tottenham.

[JeffBrad12]

There are less than 5 minutes left in the match and Chelsea is still 1 goal behind Brentford. Maybe no one expected after the previous series of wins that Chelsea had achieved, but they seemed to have lost the momentum to do it again in this match. Last week they were able to hold Arsenal to a draw and that was a great achievement from them with their current limited form. So when they play against a team like Brentford, they are expected to win but it's not enough for Chelsea and they experienced difficulties again in this match. There is still a little time left and at least they can hold Brentford to a draw rather than not getting any points at all.

The little time left in the game, Chelsea were playing for a draw, Sanchez their goalkeeper who was faulted last week for giving Arsenal the chance to equalize, made sure today that any Chance that Chelsea had to equalize was dashed by coming forward to try to head the ball into the other goal from the corner kick chance that Chelsea had. Brentford capitalized on it and made sure to quickly counter attack an empty Chelsea back post to score a second goal and secure their three points in Chelsea home stadium.

Chelsea is once again going back to the its bad performance. Chelsea is always playing like that, having good performance during the first half but this club was always playing so badly during th second half. The club can't even defend its lead.
The match against brentford is also ended with two nil as brentford was winning the game against chelsea. Pochettino's strategy is very bad. The club feels so difficult to face a club that was also implementiong low blocks strategy.
I see that if chelsea is always doing pass over and over again. I can't even remember how many times chelsea was doing back pass. This club played like shit this match.

[Issa56]

It's so unfortunate for Chelsea, just at a time when everyone was thinking that Chelsea is picking form and they lost this match to Brentford. Well, for me Chelsea did their best but their defense was too porous and I suggest Pochettino needs a lot of works to in the defense maybe he should try signing new defender this January transfer window.

I was surprised that Chelsea lost their match today. I didn't believe Chelsea was going to lose against Brentford. Everyone had confidence in Chelsea to win the match because of their fantastic performance previously, but they performed poorly today. Chelsea had a lot of opportunities today, but they wasted them all. Brentford utilized the few opportunities they had, and they were able to score two goals in the match. Most people will lose confidence in Chelsea due to their poor performance in today's match. Let's just hope Pochettino will sign new players during the next transfer season, since he already knows when Chelsea is lacking.

This was same thing that happened in the match against Arsenal, Chelsea had every chance to win Arsenal in that match but due to some defensive errors Arsenal were able to come from behind and Equalize so I assume the problem is from the defense.

I blamed the Chelsea goalkeeper for the draw that happened between Chelsea and Arsenal; if the goalkeeper didn't make the mistake, then Arsenal wouldn't have scored their first goal. After Arsenal was able to score one goal, pressure was on Chelsea, which led to conceding a second goal. I am not still saying the Chelsea defense is weak; Pochettino has to work on the club's defense.

[baenschi78]

Chelsea lost 2-0 at home to brentford after a good performance.
Brentford defense was so solid that it was difficult to penetrate.
The counter attack carried out by Brentford was able to be put to good use.
good game for Brentford.

There must be so many gamblers lost their money in this match, the odds for Chelsea was about 1.6+ and it should be a juicy odds to be missed by bettors.
Unfortunately the game ended unexpectedly with a cleansheet win by Brentford, any of you betting on Brentford with the huge odds (more than 5.5)?
This result is a proof that Chelsea is still in unstable form, maybe we can say that their situation is similar to Man United.
Both teams bought some expensive players before the season start but it does not give good effect for the whole team so far.

I don't know what's wrong with Chelsea? Player injuries always haunt Chelsea.
and the coach can't change his tactics.
Chelsea's next match will meet another big team.
Pochettino must change his strategy to secure his position at Chelsea.

[posi]

Tottenham Hotspur still on the winning trend and keep defend their unbeaten record until playing 10 games in Premier League, have advantage not participants in UEFA Champion League and Europe League make Spurs focus with domestic league only for getting fantastic achievement managed first standings position behind 5 points left from Manchester City. Tottenham Hotspur have won 8 of 10 matches in Premier League and another impressive record with Son Heung-min scored 8 goals of 10 matches in Premier League for making close with Erling Haaland have scored 9 goals.

Upcoming match against Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur have most impressive performance when playing home, they have won all home matches in Premier League and looks not problem continue three points result on next week.

Chelsea vs Tottenham is definitely going to be really interesting. Because Tottenham is at the top of the table on the first place right now. And meanwhile Chelsea is also performing pretty well right now. So it is going to be competitive match in my opinion. But I also believe that Tottenham should be able to win because they are just simply the superior team going into this match against Chelsea. This season, they have performed pretty consistently so far.  So obviously Tottenham is the one which is going to be preferred to be the winner against Chelsea.

[adultcrypto]

This match will be an easy win for Arsenal because they really dominate the game. Apart from that, Sheffield United is a bottom team which in fact is at a very different level from Arsenal, so there is no reason for Arsenal to lose this match, moreover, they are playing at home. Nketiah played very impressively and managed to score a hat trick.

I'm really impressed ny the Gunners outing today. That have shown that they mean business this season. If they maintain this tempto, something good might happen for them this season. I love as Arsenal dominated the game and still scored many goals with Edward scoring a hat-trick. So the winning is well deserved.

It's unfortunate that Sheff Utd could not offer any resistance. At this pace, Sevilla do not really have a chance against the Gunners I their next UCL meeting next month. Arsenal might have many external completions such as the Cup and UCL but they have shown great resilience so far.

[Richbased]

What an awesome performance by the Arsenal team against sheffied united today, the players played with so much team spirit and they were able to demolish sheffied united by 5:0 with Eddie Nketiah scoring a hat-trick, his first hat-trick in the premier league so far and a goal from Fabio Vieira and Takehiro Tomiyasu.

Though Sheffied united might look less competitve but checking from Chelsea -- Brentford match you will understand that no England team need to be underrated because who would have believed that brentford would win Chelsea in stamford bridge when we thought Chelsea has picked form due to the outcome of their precious matches. Arsenal did a great job and it's a well deserved victory, by the win Arsenal moves second on the league table pending the outcome of Manchester city and Manchester united derby tomorrow.

[Out of mind]

Arsenal vs Sheffield United match is over now and Arsenal won by 5-0. Arsenal youngster E. Nketiah was in superb form today and scored three goals with a brilliant attack. E. Nketiah has the highest goal scoring rating and today's match may have been outstanding for him, his attacks were excellent. Moreover, by winning this match today, Arsenal moved to the top second place in the points table, the performance was very good. Most of the time, they attacked, which resulted in the Sheffield players not being able to attack together. Moreover, this season Arsenal has played better today compared to the current season where they are second in the points table where they are at the top. And Arsenal's next target is to overtake Tottenham in the top position, if Arsenal play well in the next match, they will definitely be at the top of the points table.

This weekend's games are full of surprises; I didn't expect the Gunners to score five goals today, but they're getting stronger with each game. Arsenal is progressively regaining ground and currently sits second in the table. With a stunning victory over a mediocre side, today appears to be a Christmas day for the Gunners. Arsenal humiliates Sheffield United 5 nil at Emirate Stadium with total control. Mikel Arteta's team is performing well, his players are outstanding, and there are many more goals to be scored. Arsenal is probably not the team to messed, not after a wonderful form they're in currently.

[Stepstowealth]

Chelsea vs Tottenham is definitely going to be really interesting. Because Tottenham is at the top of the table on the first place right now. And meanwhile Chelsea is also performing pretty well right now. So it is going to be competitive match in my opinion. But I also believe that Tottenham should be able to win because they are just simply the superior team going into this match against Chelsea. This season, they have performed pretty consistently so far.  So obviously Tottenham is the one which is going to be preferred to be the winner against Chelsea.

The game may also end in a draw. Chelsea did very well against Arsenal and can also do very well against Tottenham who are on the same level with Arsenal right now, but since Chelsea are not are home, they do not have that advantage and that can make them more nervous to play under the noise of the optimistic Tottenham fans. Jackson does not need to start that game because he is not a good striker for Chelsea. Chelsea will be Lucky if they can have Christopher Nkunku back on time to play in the next series of top games that they have to play, he will greatly increase their chances to win because they are very good creating chances, but still not good scoring.

Defeat was inevitable because Brentford really took advantage of their opportunities well.

It's a disaster for anyone who was picking chelsea in this match. Chelsea is now getting another setback after it was playing without enzo and mudryk, that proves that if the main centre of gameplay was on enzo. Mudryk was also helping the club so much in giving pressure from the left wing.

Chelsea played another worst game against brentford. I meant chelsea played a bit better once it was facing a strong club but the performance is dropping drastically when chelsea faces a garbage club like that. I can't even understand what club is this.
Pochettino has not been successfully in building the mentality from the players. Chelsea played better in the second half but the club like lose its performance.

Pochettino needs to reevaluating its club again. Chelsea doesn't have good striker at this moment. Jackson wasting so many chances and that's it.
I think that palmer has done his best to save the club from the lose but chelsea has a very lazy striker. Jackson shall not be included in the upcoming game.

[hahay]

I don't think I've seen many players score a hattrick this season. Scoring 3 goals in just 58 minutes is a great achievement. I congratulate Nketiah, let's see if he can manage to score another goal in the rest of the match.
We can say that Arsenal is having an easy match, they win 3 points easily

On paper Arsenal are certain to win, but because Arsenal are only able to win 1-0 at half time, it seems that it is not easy for Arsenal to win in this match. Although indeed, that Arsenal have very good dominance in this match from the first minute to the end of the match. But yes, if Arsenal can win easily, then Arsenal should have won with a better score also at half time . But apart from that of course, Sheffield United also does not have good quality. Because after all, so far this season the fact is that Sheffield United also no has winning results at all, and Sheffield United is at the bottom position in the Premier League standings at this moment. Therefore, it is appropriate for Arsenal to win with a big score like that.
