Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Raflesia]

Today’s game was thrilling, I was at the edge of my seat throughout.  This match is arguably the best match I have seen this season. Chelsea did very well today, I wasn’t expecting them to score as many goals as they did, I really hope they can maintain this form and also to work on their defense. Today’s game proves that Manchester City are not invincible, I doubt they will be winning a treble this season.

Last season, City played with Newcastle 3-3 and this did not stop them from winning the treble. But the absence of KDB certainly has an impact, and in any case, the fact that Chelsea were able to score as many as four goals against them is impressive.
By the way, in the next round City plays Liverpool and I hope they will lose points again, and if Liverpool wins, they will also take the lead. What score will we expect in this game if the result with Chelsea is 4-4? 8-8?  

Actually it's not too makesenese to make this one match as a benchmark for a season because in my opinion even if they draw they also have nothing to lose and indeed I agree with what you said considering this also does not mean Manchester City's performance is bad because this is actually one of the best reminders for Pep that they still have to improve if they still want to make new history now.
Losing KDB as a successor in midfield and as an attack organizer with a pass that always spoils other players is indeed one of the problems that Manchester City still cannot solve to this day even though their performance is still very good but when KDB is not in this squad it still gives one characteristic that is lacking from Manchester City but for the problem of champions and Pep's achievements I think today's draw does not guarantee anything for the end of the season because I believe they can still develop better now.

[Wend]

After defeating Tottenham 4-1 in the previous round, Chelsea played a brave match against the defending champions. I appreciate Chelsea's danger. The game at Stamford Bridge deserves to be considered one of the most exciting matches this season. With their elite players, the two brought fans a satisfying game with many goals. The final draw result of 4-4 was considered suitable for the performances of the two teams. Meanwhile, Man City missed the opportunity to widen the gap with the group behind. Guardiola and his team have 28 points, only 1 point more than Liverpool and Arsenal. Man City will continue to have a great battle with Liverpool. This is a match that I am looking forward to.

This match should be called scoring competition as both teams were actually looking for who will score the last goal and indeed Chelsea scored the last goal to end the match in a draw, hmm this match was really interesting as any of the side that scores the other team retaliate and scores as well that is score me I score you.

Well, this match was really impressive as both teams showed eagerness to win this match but unfortunately it looked like the both teams were equal in this match as they scored 2 goals each in both halves. Chelsea really performed very well today, I like the team spirit and the energy they showed in other not to lose against Manchester city, had it been they've been performing in this way they would have gone far in the league by now.
Despite drawing this game Manchester city still maintains the lead at the top of the premier league table with just a point above Liverpool and Arsenal who occupied the second and third position respectively in the league table.

[Altryist]

It was a crazy match but Chelsea played very well and indeed a draw was a good result and benefited both teams in today's match.
This quite hot match with high tension makes the players motivated to show more performance in this match because not only the Manchester City players who play well in this match but also Chelsea who do have ambitions and are able to match the performance that Manhchester City does.
In addition, 2 Chelsea goals were also scored by 2 of their former players, Palmer and Sterling, making emotions a little bigger in this match and I am happy with results like this because after all this is a good result for both teams and with Chelsea's performance like this at least for the rest of the big match they are not too worried because when playing against clubs whose level is above them Chelsea always play well and the hope is clear in the remaining few big matches for the last 4 weeks of course Chelsea must play like this continue.

The Premier League is still very competitive, City were never able to beat Chelsea, it was a very interesting game and it seems to me that Chelsea have started to play better, Pochettino is gradually making the team better. A draw with City is a very worthy result. From fifth place to first place the gap is only 3 points, so everything can change in each round. Liverpool looks very good, it seems to me that they have a very good chance of competing with City.

[BitcoinHunt3r]

Erling Haaland opened this big match with a penalty goal. I guess we can say that then both teams bombarded the opposing team's goal. There are eight goals scored in total and it is a fierce competition. I really enjoyed it, I haven't watched a match like this for a long time, of course thanks to the EPL difference.

I don't know if there will be a better match than this match in this season. It was a very high-level match. Okay, Chelsea started this season well, but I guess I wasn't aware that they were this good, they really made City miserable. Football lovers will remember this match for many years.

As I said before, Chelsea found their rhythm in the last 2 matches everything seems changed and more aggressive or we can say that this is Chelsea's best game this season, but one thing that made me ignore Chelsea was that when we expected them to have an easy match then the result was not as expected this has been repeated since the start of the season. To prove this, we will wait for Chelsea's next match against Newcastle whether they can continue their consistency or even repeat the same mistakes. Today Chelsea managed to climb to 10th place they still have many challenges ahead and 9 more points are needed to take part in the hunt for European League tickets, yeah we know Chelsea don't have any chance this season except to fight for tickets and if they continue to play like today then their chances will be even greater.

[Issa56]

Let hope that Chelsea will consistent in the recent improvement and thos season have been filled with unexpected performance for some of the clubs that have suffered in the last couple of seasons back,  e.g Chelsea and Liverpool both did an incredible job in this weekend where the clubs made multiple goals in their match today's.

This once again goes to confirm the unpredictability nature of football,  so for sure we should expect some form of exciting time ahead in this season for both clubs

I was really surprised with the way Chelsea played today. People didn’t believe that Chelsea would be able to draw Manchester City. Let's be honest, before the match started, I also believed that Manchester City would be the winner of the match, even if they wouldn't be able to score many goals. I know the match will be tough, but I was surprised to see Chelsea score four goals in the match. They didn’t allow Manchester City to go away with three points, they rather shared the points, and each team went away with one point each. I was really impressed by the way Chelsea played today, let’s just hope they are getting back to form already.

Not only you but many others including Chelsea's fans never believed that their club would record such success in the game tonight,  but they did and that is a be add up to the club and not only them but also Liverpool was able to win against Brentford also with a 3 goals which is another remarkable record for a club that is in the same category with Chelsea.

But what makes Chelsea's own case unique and more celebrated is the fact that Chelsea has suffered a lot of setbacks in the past and that affected the club's performance in the premier leagues in the last seasons,  much more than what Liverpool ever experienced,  but in this season Chelsea have begun to show some positive level of advancement and that is as a result of many home works from both the players and they coach in determination to changing the faith of the club in this season and beyond.

I never expected such game between Chelsea and Manchester City. I was giving Manchester City a huge chance to win this game away honestly. However it was one of the unforgettable games in history for both sides. Despite the rain we watched 8 goals in total.    Chelsea's resistance was amazing by the way.

They are really getting used to scoring 4 goals in each game these days.    Manchester City could have won by 4-3 though if it weren't for that penalty. But it was an unlucky tackle by Dias as the ground was really slippy. It is really hard to tackle carefully under such pitch conditions.

The last foul that gave chelsea penalty was clean foul. I think that anyone know that but i must admit that if this is the best match. The atmosphere is pretty much the same like final. It's unbelievable to see chelsea played so crazily against manchester city.

It feels like that chelsea was not willing to lose against city. That's also the reason why the club keeps try even until the end of game. Many people are picking city to win the game but chelsea made it different this day.
Guess how many people are losing their bet today caused by the result from this match? this is unbelivable to say that if chelsea was doing it so perfect. That's so amazing to see that. The gameplay has very fast tempo

Im feeling if we was in the final. The atmosphere is pretty much the same like final. This is amazing and unbelievable performance from chelsea.

Since the start of the season, Chelsea has been able to play very well against the big teams in England as they didn't lose against Liverpool and Arsenal while beating Tottenham Hotspur last week Monday before producing a quality performance today to share points with Manchester City.
Many had thought the reigning English and European champions were gonna thrash Chelsea today but the home team produce an impressive performance that forced the visitors to draw the game.

[Salahmu]

Chelsea vs Manchester City match will be the most talked about match of the week. Like seeing a match in which both teams were able to score and equalize against each other within a short time of scoring 1st to 4th goals.
It's good to see Chelsea starting to turn things around after they scored eight goals in their last two matches(Tottenham and Manchester City) and ended Manchester City's six-game winning streak against them today. It's really lovely. Although their performance today wasn't in any way expected to hold Manchester City in a draw at the end of the match.

Just like what I always said about Chelsea no matter how poor performance they are but when it comes to there match against big team they never joke with it, look at there performance today because irrespective of there history with bigger teams but I never imagine the match to end this way, however I was thinking based on the Manchester City performance they will win the match today but little did i know that Chelsea will try as much as possible in other not to lose the match.

Perhaps I never imagine the match to play this way because Manchester City is way more than them in times of performance but I was surprised to see that which ever way they plan to use against Chelsea they never succeed because Chelsea has known there pattern of play.

From fifth place to first place the gap is only 3 points, so everything can change in each round. Liverpool looks very good, it seems to me that they have a very good chance of competing with City.

Yes seeing how close the table is is probably the best result for this week. The Liverpool and Arsenal fans probably celebrated more than the Chelsea fans after the final whistle hehe. I don't think Villa could stay up there for long though but it's great that they are getting results as well.

It's really lovely. Although their performance today wasn't in any way expected to hold Manchester City in a draw at the end of the match.

Of course, this match stole quite a lot of attention because Chelsea is a team that is currently building and Manchester City is a team that is quite strong in the Premier League. But in this match Chelsea performed extraordinary by providing quite interesting resistance and of course the audience was quite enthusiastic with the continuous goal replies happened until finally this match ended with a score of 4-4. The Chelsea performance that fans want is probably like this, they don't become weak when facing a strong team and that is the polish that Pochettino has done. He trusts his players for every game and the players work hard to take advantage of the opportunities by showing their best qualities.

Well, for Chelsea, it seems like they have risen from adversity and are ready to play with the best strength they have. They must focus on improving their performance this season and that is what they are trying to do this season. Chelsea target this season is to close the season in the top 4 and slowly they will be ready to enter a better level in the standings.

Who wouldn't be surprised by this result? Chelsea being able to share the same goal with Manchester City was a great goal return we saw last night.

I don't know what you're saying Chelsea are back to their best because even against Arsenal it was the same game with a draw, strangely against lower teams Chelsea find it more difficult what's going on with them, did you notice that?
With this result it does illustrate that Chelsea have returned to appear quite impressive despite the draw with a score of 4-4 because with the score

Many had thought the reigning English and European champions were gonna thrash Chelsea today but the home team produce an impressive performance that forced the visitors to draw the game.

It was by design that Manchester City wasn’t going to have it easy at the Stanford Bridge when they face Chelsea but, I never expected a much spectacular performance like they produced today. Giving Manchester City the opportunity to take the lead through the Cucurella penalty which E. Haaland was always going to convert and then, T. Silva came up with that equalizer. We later saw Chelsea take the lead, Manchester City equalized and took the lead and then, Chelsea came to take a draw from them. Two penalties in a game, one to each side, it was just great.
You can tell how disappointing it was for Pep to have shared points with Chelsea today and even Pochettino wasn’t exactly pleased. I think he saw the possibility of a win but still, Chelsea undeniably had a good result.

I find it quite perplexing how formidable Chelsea appears when going up against top-tier clubs, yet the dynamic seems to change when they encounter mediocre teams that consistently adopt a defensive approach known as "parking the bus." I don't know what the exact reason is but this kinda strange to me. It seems like that the win against manchester city has been also motivating the club even more to play better than the previous games. City was trying so hard not to miss the three points but chelsea is playing so good this time.
No doubt that if chelsea is able getting one point from manchester city. That is what i called as the true football game. The atmosphere was bringing me back to the final match. I do really like this kind of match.
Anyteam was trying so hard to score the goals to win against its opponent. Chelsea is always pressuring manchester city. That's sad that jackson was still playing awfully in this match.
he was not able finishing some chances properly. Pochettino needs to give him a training session to shoot the ball.

Manchester City will face Liverpool next round, I don't know which fans will celebrate more  
Manchester City got a hilarious draw vs Chelsea with 4 goals scored by each side. Chelsea did pretty well against them and were lucky to score a penalty by the end of the match. They picked a point from hard City and allowed the other teams to stay close from it.
For Aston Villa, they will have many hard matches coming starting with Tottenham Hotspur next round up to Manchester City and Arsenal by December 9. I am not sure if we should count Manchester United in the list or not because they are fluctuating much..

[Leviathan.007]

I can't believe my eyes that Chelsea Draw Arsenal, won Tottenham, and at this point holding Manchester City on an entertaining first-half draw, what a great performance against the big-name teams this season, and not only that their performance in this game against Manchester has been incredible, especially with the number of saves from Chelsea's keeper, What a super save from that close range strike from Erling Haaland.

From my observation of this game and looking at how both teams are scoring each other goals and the other equalizing almost a few minutes later, likely the game may end draw.

To be honest if this match is attractive more than chelsea vs totenham. This match is so crazy. My heart gets pumped. So many attacks between chelsea and city. This match is so crazy.
I would like to call this as a quality match even though city being placed at the bottom but this is so crazy. I never expect chelsea to play as good as manchester city. I can't imagine if this was another club like MU.

Chelsea's game play has been improving so significant. I cna't even describe how crazy this game is. The supporters are also feeling it now. Chelsea and city are trying to go all in. I think that all of people who are watching this match are also feeling the same like me. This match is so crazy as fuck. This is so damn good.

Glad i have time to watch this.

I agree that the match was really crazy because Chelsea won the game while we were waiting to see Chelsea lose it easily. Also, the referee had many mistakes which is enough to say one reason for Tottenham losing this match was the referee.
Also, the sad thing for Totenham was about their player James Maddison, this player is hardly injured and he can't play for Totenham until January.

[red4slash]

Tottenham is too cautious in my opinion in this match when they previously got 2 red cards when playing against Chelsea then surely they will notice to play more saves to avoid the same mistakes but instead this backfired on them.
Tottenham players also gave too much freedom to the Wolves attackers who were in the Penalty box which was very dangerous considering that in this match they only focused on defense but did not see the players and without any really tight marking being done even though if in the end they were bolder in defense then I think things like this can still be changed and they can still get points in today's match.

The effects of the red card from.the match against Chelsea is definitely still telling on them so I wouldn't blame them for trying to be really careful not to get another as it will further increase the number of players they will be absent in their next match which wouldn't be fine.

Tottenham Lost trying to be careful but then I think by all these so far they must have learnt their lessons and are definitely going to improve and do much better by their next games next week. Manchester united still have much issues to settle around their defense line as it's yet to be solid enough, they concede goals in every meeting with big team but with smaller teams it will looks as if they are good but they still concede too.

It was a mistake when they tried to implement a new scheme where they loosened up the defence which is an important factor to guard.
The marking of the players was really bad in the Tottenham match so that indeed some wingers and attackers from Wolves were very free to make a breakthrough which in the end in the last 10 minutes even in extra time it was a disaster.
Wolves knew that Tottenham relaxed their guard on the players because they were more focused on the area than marking so that the movement of Wolves attackers became more free in this match which made Tottenham have to be willing to lose points again.


In another match today Chelsea and Manchester City was the best match of the week as these two teams showed a very good performance and the drama of 8 goals was the final result in this match although I lost my betting money for being in Manchester City but indeed this was a tough match and appreciation must be given to both considering they were really very good in today's match.

With this result it does illustrate that Chelsea have returned to appear quite impressive despite the draw with a score of 4-4 because with the score

Mostly people are thinking chelsea would not be winning the game against manchester or draw but the result kinda a bit crazy to see chelsea gets draw 4-4 against manchester city. The thing that feels me amazing to see pochettino was implementing the high pressure to the city's players. It was sometimes making city's players feel panic. I have seen that during the match. It's a bit annoying to see chelsea failed to win the game and there have been some moments which have been ruined by taylor.

This referee was so garbage and he's an idiot. He was not even seeing how walker was doing handball and this is a very disappointed result from him as a referee. Chelsea just need to stay consistent.
I might seem like im getting the top of ahead myself.

Chelsea can enter into the top 4 if it keeps perform like this. The squad is just even more mature than before. I hope chelsea will enter into the UCL spot competitions again.
