Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Pandu Geddon]

Pochettino must do that caused by he will be sacked by the club if there would be no improvements happened to the chelsea. Newcastle will not be in a good form and chelsea is having equal chance to the newcastle to win the game.
Look at the list of injured players by newcastle and you will be thinking the opposite thing. The majority of the players in Newcastle's squad for the game will be secondary players. Chelsea gets more opportunity to win the game against newcastle soon.
I hope it will be an easy game for chelsea. It is probably worth to gamble. Chelsea is going to win the game even with narrow score. chelsea was as good as the top clubs right now but it was not lucky enough to still being placed at the bottom.
Pochettino must be working a bit harder to beat newcastle and this is it. People will not be feeling doubt again to the chelsea after it will able to beat newcastle.

It won't be that easy that Pochettino will be fired immediately because I know how Chelsea management usually gives the opportunity until the end of the new season to fire their coach and the match against Newcastle will not make Pochettino fail and be fired.
I mean, if you fail to get 3 points from Newcastle, there not be any changes for Chelsea and I think if you talk about player injuries, maybe you should also consider Nkunku, Chelsea mainstay player, also suffered an injury which created a bit of a problem with Chelsea attacking performance even though Newcastle has more players are injured but I am pretty sure the match will end in a draw or Newcastle win.

as far as I can see, Newcastle has more consistent, more stable performance. Newcastle defensive line is still stronger than Chelsea and in terms of attack, both have almost the same performance and I would probably choose to bet on the double chance.

I don't think in terms of players anyone was superior in that match. I think both of them have the same problem on the team. but Newcastle will be superior in terms of playing mentality. they are at home and they are not doing too badly compared to Chelsea. they will be better equipped to beat Chelsea.
The possibility of a draw is quite big, but I believe Newcastle will win.

Over recent time, the match between Manchester City and Liverpool have proven to strong fixtures as they’re always title challenge fixtures as this weekend’s own now is a fixture to decide who sits top of the EPL Table, credits can’t be taken away from both teams especially after the 1st 13 Gameweeks in the EPL and they both have just a point separating them.

 Liverpool are a pretty good side who have a very fast and clinical attack that can break down any defense line with it’s pace and creativity but we can’t say less of Manchester City’s defense; i mean the defense of Europe’s defending champions, I think for this match, it’ll be a tough encounter but Manchester City porves to be the better side as Liverpool defense could fall easily to cheap mistakes which could prove costly for them in this fixture.

 KDB will be one to watch in this fixture as he’s just returning from injury but I think Pep wouldn’t want to rush him quick into the game and will probably keep him for the last minutes to seal his win, though the absence of KDB might not really have much  effect because City have still been on top without him and will still prove it once more at the Etihad over the weekend.

Manchester City and Liverpool only have difference of one point and indeed this match is form of competition for the top of the standings which is currently still occupied by Manchester City and when Manchester City manages to win the match they will be even further ahead in terms points.
But looking at how the two teams have competed so far this season there is possibility of draw and if there is win for one of the teams then the win will only be by narrow score like difference of just one goal.
The match will take place tomorrow and until now I am still hesitant to choose who is the favorite because match with two strong teams like this is very difficult to predict with more certainty.

Yes, Liverpool has pretty sharp front line and even endangers the opponent's defense, even though Manchester City has good defense, Pep still can't underestimate Liverpool.
In match there are always surprises that happen, but in this match I really hope that the surprise doesn't come for Liverpool because actually my belief says to choose Manchester City but my mind is little doubtful in choosing it.

As I said, if De Bruyne can appear then there is no need to play full time because being able to play in half the game is more than enough to help Manchester City win.
But the decision is in Pep hands whether he will use De Bruyne or not because when player has just recovered from an injury there is still chance of getting the injury back and Pep has to take everything into account.

Chelsea has recently show that they have improved a little in their game style and are most likely good to face almost any team they may be encountering in the premier league, especially the draw against one of the toughest team this season must have taken their confidence high up enough.

They seem to show more strength playing against bigger teams than they will do against smaller team, they have succeeded in getting some points from every big team they meet this season, with Tottenham they got three points and with Manchester city they got one  so with Newcastle it's very possible they will get a point because they have got their morale high up and their confidence is really good .

Chelsea really has to rise from their downturn because right now they have to make the fans happy and gain their trust again. Tomorrow they will play against Newcastle, and the chances of winning are quite slim, but at least Chelsea must keep trying to give their best performance to get the win.

The chelsea owner has been giving mandatory for pochettino to bring chelsea up again after embarassing result last season. This is also the main reason why chelsea needs to go up as the club is trying to aim to participate into the UCL next season.
Newcslte will not be a serious problem for chelsea. Chelsea may use it as a test to break the low block strategy that may be used by howe. This is the main weakness of chelsea.

Chelsea was consistently losing against the weak club due to the low block strategy that was killing the movement of chelsea. Pochettino needs to reevaluate the main problem faced by chelsea. Pochettino needs to prepare a solution for this.
It will be a disaster if chelsea will unable to break the low block strategy.

Pochettino needs to put this as his main concern.

Every football owner wants the rise and growth of his club with how Chelsea did last season,  they should use that as a means of learning and knowing what and who to assign when bringing in a manager.  You cannot expect a goat to do the work of a tiger. Graham Potter dragged the players and club backwards and he was given too much time. Pochettino is good at these, working  with younger talented players. Pochettino has tried but not enough we have to see the hunger in the boys and create that fear factor. Newcastle at home are extremely complex,  trying to break down the new castles will take a long day to achieve.

The possibility of a draw is quite big, but I believe Newcastle will win.

Chelsea's players have returned to form after a long spell of off-form. They are playing well and scoring a lot of goals. Chelsea players scored 8 goals against Tottenham and Manchester City. And that's why I want the Chelsea team slightly ahead.

Newcastle is a strong team. And their performance is very stable. But I'm not sure if Newcastle's attacking players can do well against Chelsea. However, Newcastle's players will be confident in the home match. At the same time, the team is trying to stay in the top four of the points table. So Newcastle will not want to lose points in this match. There is no doubt that the match will be competitive. But my guess is either Chelsea will win or the match will be a draw.

Why do you say Chelsea's chances of winning are quite slim? Is it because Chelsea is visiting Newcastle that you think the chances of winning are quite slim. I think Chelsea could win against Newcastle if Chelsea had a better performance than before this week, because being able to draw against Manchester City is a quite unique achievement for Chelsea amidst their downturn this season. So at least for this week's match Chelsea can win again at home to Newcastle.

It took more time than expected for Todd Boehly and his bored to discover the poor stats recorded by these mediocre coaches signed. Graham Potter and Frank Lampard are the worst set of coach I've encounter in Stamford Bridge, they're incapable and deserves to exits the club. Chelsea would have been enlisted as one of the competitive clubs this season, but since appointing total wrong choices of coaches in previous season, Todd Boehly regrets his actions and he's keen on thoroughly checking out Chelsea to become thr robust club we all know in the past decades.

It was quite unexpected to see Burnley dropping to the last spot on the table with Sheffield United and Luton Town sitting above them for now. With such poor performance in their defending, I think it would be very difficult for Burnley to keep a clean sheet against West Ham United in their next upcoming match. I guess Burnley might still find themselves stuck at the bottom of the table with another home loss against West Ham United.

I guess Burnley might still find themselves stuck at the bottom of the table with another home loss against West Ham United.

This club has no progress, they've entered Premier League for many seasons and yet still one of the weakest club in Premier League. West Ham looks very convincing to win in this match, but their odds are quite higher it's @2.05 West Ham to win.

Regardless the match happen in Burnley's home or away, I think the result will not change.

[Mayor of ogba]

There might be a good opportunity for Arsenal this week to take advantage of. I mean while Manchester City and Liverpool are facing each other in Etihad a possible advantageous result would be helpful for Arsenal to take the lead directly. But on one hand Arsenal had better stay strong against Brentford in that away game of theirs.

This is technically a game that they should be able to win decently. But when it comes to the Premier League it is really difficult to be sure of even favourite teams. Liverpool ended their winning streak by hitting them hard like 3-0. Maybe Arsenal can take advantage of their weaknesses.

That's right, Arsenal only hopes that Man City and Liverpool end with a draw so Arsenal will most likely rise to the top of the standings, and even then, if Arsenal is able to win the match against Brentford, at least they can get full points in that match.

It was very difficult to win 3-0 while the opponent Liverpool faced was not a bottom team but last season's defending champion club, so it is very likely that Arsenal will get an advantage in the Liverpool and Man City match.

This week is an opportunity for Arsenal to be at the top of the Premier League table if Manchester City and Liverpool can play a draw match at Etihad Stadium. Haaland might be ready to face Liverpool tomorrow, and that is a boost to Machester City. Arsenal should not see themselves as the favorite to win against Brentford because Brentford might pull out an unexpected result against Arsenal this weekend.

So at least for this week's match Chelsea can win again at home to Newcastle.

Being able to achieve a draw with Manchester City is indeed a good achievement because Chelsea played at their own home where Chelsea tried to win the match but in fact it was not successful but Chelsea's goal productivity was very good in that match where Chelsea was able to score 4 goals against Manchester City and The match ended in a draw.

The victory in the match against Tottenham in Chelsea's away match in my opinion was because luck was still on Chelsea's side because Tottenham was forced to play with 9 players and Chelsea was able to take advantage of this opportunity well.
and in this match Chelsea will come as guests so the chances can be called slim but if Chelsea can appear impressive and are able to maintain their defense then Chelsea can win the match and improve their position which is currently ranked 10th.

We don't usually see Manchester City vs Liverpool draw. Teams are strong in home matches. Manchester City won the last two home matches against Liverpool by 4-1 and 3-2. Liverpool, on the other hand, beat City 1-0 and 3-1 in their two home matches. Therefore, considering the home match, I consider Manchester City to be the favorite.

Manchester City's performance depends on Haaland. City are likely to be weakened if Liverpool's players can resist Haaland. So Guardiola will definitely have to adopt a different match strategy. Otherwise Liverpool will be hard to beat. Guardiola should use Alvarez properly in this match.

I think both of them have the same problem on the team. but Newcastle will be superior in terms of playing mentality. they are at home and they are not doing too badly compared to Chelsea. they will be better equipped to beat Chelsea.
The possibility of a draw is quite big, but I believe Newcastle will win.

Currently, when talking about the quality of the team between the two clubs, it is not too far away, especially with the strength of money from Chelsea san Newcastle United, at this time the quality of their team is very well supported, but there are other things that are now a benchmark because after all, Chelsea currently want to give their best for their performance situation which is in a positive trend so they want positive results in this match. As for Newcastle, they also still want positive results this season to prove that they were not wrong when they were given trust with big money.
Newcastle's current problem is injuries in their attack line which could be an obstacle in this big match.

So the bookmakers have a favorite, it is Manchester City with odds of x1.75 to win. A Liverpool win is currently at x4.2, so the difference is very big, which is of course also due to the fact that Cioty is playing at home. If I look at the last matches of both teams, then I would almost say that Liverpool is better, although they recently lost 3:2 against Toulouse.

If Chelsea against all odds could secure a well deserve draw against Man City I don't think Newcastle would pose any the threat to the team, though not yet at their best but they usually play well against top teams, this season they remain  unbeaten against top teams like Liverpool, Man City, Arsenal and Tottenham therefore the best result Newcastle would get is to play a draw, the Toons hasn't been very consistent and impressive this season they controversial and narrowly defeated Arsenal and got beaten by Bournemouth in their last match so the team is not too formidable enough to cause any problem for Chelsea my prediction is Newcastle 1 Chelsea 1

Chelsea performance is not stable yet compare to other potential team like Manchester city, Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool and Arsenal who has displayed some tactics to maintain a good position in this premier league table so far. It will shock you what Newcastle united will do to Chelsea, and I believe Newcastle will defeat Chelsea 2-1 in this match because, Chelsea know how to prepare well to battle with strong teams which we saw what they did to Arsenal draw, defeated Tottenham 4-1, draw with Liverpool 2-2 and draw with Manchester city 4-4 . If Newcastle coach can use their right players to play this match, it will end up for the favour of Newcastle 2-1 to embrace the three points.

This club has no progress, they've entered Premier League for many seasons and yet still one of the weakest club in Premier League. West Ham looks very convincing to win in this match, but their odds are quite higher it's @2.05 West Ham to win.

Regardless the match happen in Burnley's home or away, I think the result will not change.

I also considered Burnley as the weak club in the Premier league, they are absent last season and return this season which I thought the will perform very well after they went on relegation, before I thought the worst team is Sheffield United which I was totally wrong, Burnley only win one match this Season against Luton Town, in Luton Town home and had a draw against Nottingham Forest which is still away, which means that Burnley's case is different, perform well away and loss form in home. Now the are hosting West Ham which is currently in number 9 in the table with 17 point that have wons two away matches, draw one and loss three, compared to Burnley that is in number 20 in the table with only 4 points that have never won any home game, zero draw and defeated 6 times, with my view West Ham is winning this game.

This week is an opportunity for Arsenal to be at the top of the Premier League table if Manchester City and Liverpool can play a draw match at Etihad Stadium. Haaland might be ready to face Liverpool tomorrow, and that is a boost to Machester City. Arsenal should not see themselves as the favorite to win against Brentford because Brentford might pull out an unexpected result against Arsenal this weekend.

Arsenal have to perform well to even claim that top because Brentford that they are face are not easy to score, they are very strong and confident when playing, this match is going to be tough, as  for my own view I can't predict this match, even though I see that Manchester United win Brentford and Arsenal are far better than Manchester United now, it doesn't give me any hope, but I know Arsenal are very stronger than Brentford. As for Manchester City vs Liverpool there is going to be war, I want them to draw and gunners to win, so they will take the lead.

My guess if he didn't aware how many newcastle players were injured. There are more than 11 players that will not play against chelsea.

NUFC Injured/Suspended Players:
Sven Botman (knee)
Matt Targett (hamstring)
Dan Burn (back)
Javier Manquillo (groin)

Seeing how chelea able to get draw against manchester city will be forcing eddie howe to advise his time to do defensive strategy against chelsea. Mostly of injured players are the main players in the club. Those guys who were injured at such a crucial time have had a detrimental impact on Newcastle, making this season a complete disaster for the team. The defeat against Chelsea will have a lasting impact on the mindset of the players. newcastle is going to face PSG. Winning against chelsea will be boosting the self confidence of players.
The thing that doubts me if newcastle will be using secondary line up. Chelsea is coming with full squad. Im doubting newcastle's chance to win against chelsea. The game may end with draw as the final result.
Pochettino may be also making fully preparation to beat newcaslte soon.

With such poor performance in their defending, I think it would be very difficult for Burnley to keep a clean sheet against West Ham United in their next upcoming match. I guess Burnley might still find themselves stuck at the bottom of the table with another home loss against West Ham United.

What has happened to Burnley so far is not in accordance with what observers said when they succeeded in being able to play in the English Premier League, and not only them but also the other two teams who managed to progress also performed disappointingly and facing West Ham later will not be an easy task for Vincent Kompany to bring his team to get points even though this is a home match for Burnley.
Burnley's opportunity to face West Ham is to get 1 point because West Ham is also inconsistent. West Ham won over Nottingham but that was after three consecutive defeats which saw them drop further down the rankings.

But looking at how the two teams have competed so far this season there is possibility of draw and if there is win for one of the teams then the win will only be by narrow score like difference of just one goal.
The match will take place tomorrow and until now I am still hesitant to choose who is the favorite because match with two strong teams like this is very difficult to predict with more certainty.

So the bookmakers have a favorite, it is Manchester City with odds of x1.75 to win. A Liverpool win is currently at x4.2, so the difference is very big, which is of course also due to the fact that Cioty is playing at home. If I look at the last matches of both teams, then I would almost say that Liverpool is better, although they recently lost 3:2 against Toulouse.

Liverpool is not in the favourable situation because they have poor records at Etihad Stadium and since 2015 Liverpool always be failed to beat Manchester City at Etihad Stadium so these records also placed Manchester City is the favourite and recently Liverpool have a problem from away matches because in the last 3 away matches Liverpool only able to collect 1 point from 2 loses and 1 draw so i am not surprising if the bookmakers placed Manchester City favourite in this match and Manchester City should be able to overcomes Liverpool if want to secured first position because if from this match they only gets draw result or even lose then Arsenal possibly will be taking over their position because Arsenal only fight against Brentford which is weak team and most likely they will win

I remember the game of Liverpool against Newcastle when they were playing away and they were even with 10 men yet they managed to equalize from 2-0 to 2-2 at that game where Newcastle was at top performance at that time.Based on this no matter that Liverpool is playing against Manchester City I would not write them off from a big,huge surprise if they are able to win at Etihad stadium,statistics are good to be shown but I don't think we should rely to much on them because the teams are not the same as they were years before.I think a draw would be the most likely result during this game.
