Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Smartvirus]

Everton will hosts Newcastle United next at Goodison Park stadium, everyone will anticipate Newcastle to win the match but we shouldn't be too carry away because Sean Dyche have a way of turning the game around for his club this season, besides they're in a very tight corner, were they need consistent winning of matches to boosts them to escape the relegation zone this season, an ultimate goal for Everton was to climb from relegation and they wouldn't keen on accepting.

Everton is not new to Sean Dyche no more, his been with Everton for a long time and I can’t consider him being new with the team.
The form of Newcastle United is not something I can measure up with Everton. They comfortably did beat Manchester United and it would be about the same when they face Everton. Sean Dyche is a good coach but he haven’t done much with Everton. He took over the team at a relegation zone and that’s where they are at the time still. His team ain’t ready for an Everton squad that have got the top 4 in their view. Everton within the relegation zone should be a good reason to fight really hard but, can they? I don’t think, not against Newcastle come 7th.

I sure, it seems no one thinks Manchester City will get a draw in the last three matches in a row in the Premier League. Because after all, Manchester City last three matches were played against Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham because I sure, in previous predictions Manchester City was the favorite to win those matches. Especially regarding Chelsea and Tottenham because ya, at this moment they are experiencing a decline in performance and/or experiencing performance instability. But ya, maybe the result was quite surprising too, because in the end Manchester City failed to get 3 points in 3 consecutive matches.

It is because people think Man City is still as strong as the last season. But if we consider there are some changes in Man City squad, we can understand that Man City are possible to get draws or loses. Also, it is true that Man City played against strong teams in EPL in the last 3 matches. So, it is not easy for Man City to get full points. Moreover, since De Bruyne got injury for a long time, Man City performance is decreasing a lot. Pep still can't get a proper solution for this problem, it seems no player has the similar capability as De Bruyne. I think Bernardo Silva can be the right player to replace him, but it seems Bernardo Silva has a different style in playing. So, he can't be an effective solution for the absence of De Bruyne.
 

At least city was not losing and it acn still maintain its position at the top position. Even though liverpool has been surpassing it but the chance owned by manchester city to win the league is still there. pep needs to do something on its defenders.
The defensive line of manchester city is very weak as it was always conceded so many goals. Pep needs to do somethings. I think that he needs to make sure his club will be able to get three points again.

Manchester city needs to keep up with the team like arsenal and liverpool which are still facing easy schedule. Pep needs also to buy the new defenders.
Im thinking that manchester city needs a new centre back. It was also need to replace walker with a new good RB.

Manchester City tried to improve their defense and invest in future with Gvardiol transfer from Leipzig in the summer transfer. The Croatian defender had some good seasons with Leipzig and an amazing World Cup 2022, that convinced Manchester City to spend huge transfer cost to bring him to Ettihad from Leipzig.

So far, it seems Gvardiol has yet adapted too well with a new club and Premier League. He is struggling to adapt to intensity of Premier League matches and speed of players in the league. It's too soon to consider he is a failed transfer and I think we will have to wait for his second season in Premier League to assess Gvardiol more accurately. One season for adaptation is not too much for a big and competitive national league like Premier League.

Before Gvardiol, Manchester City experienced it with Jack Grealish even the player had many years in Premier League with Aston Villa. In his second season, he had more contribution and won three titles in the past season with Manchester City as one of their important players.

Now Arsenal is increasingly comfortable at the top of the standings with a difference of 3 points to Man City.

It does not really matter to me, Arsenal will definitely lose point Man city will capitalise on that and also the year is ending soon and it will become that time of the season were Man city is the better team in Epl. Lets see which team will stand up against them, then that team may win the league, three straight draw from City suprisingly in the Epl now I guess they have to do more though their next Epl opponent may face the hit which is the unfortunate Aston Villa.

It's hard to predict what will happen. Mancity couldn't overcome direct competitors like Tottenham and Liverpool, so it's understandable that Arsenal has overtaken them now. Arsenal seized better opportunities to climb to the top of the table. We all know that direct clashes with teams competing for the championship are crucial. If you draw or lose many of these, reaching the top becomes extremely difficult.

Mancity played well against Tottenham, but on a fantastic matchday, Tottenham didn't make it easy for Mancity to secure points. That's the beauty of football and the allure of the Premier League. Any big team can drop points anytime if they make mistakes or lose focus. Unfortunately, it seems that Rodri got injured after the recent match. Mancity usually doesn't perform well without him, so the chances of Mancity dropping points are quite high if Rodri is absent in the upcoming matches. Now, Mancity can only hope that Arsenal or Liverpool will stumble in crucial matches for them to successfully defend the championship this season.

Likely, Pep Guardiola have long time with 3-2-4-1 formation formation where left and right defender must working hard when defensive and offensive games play, usually some manager in Premier League have adopted with 3-5-2 and the same scheme with Pep Guardiola need right and left defender with active when building counter attack. Usually Kyle Walker and Manuel Akanji should active when Manchester City on offensive and defensive games. But last match not really working yet with Pep Guardiola formation how easily Tottenham Hotspur scored 3 goals and become three consecutive draw matches for Manchester City.

Usually Pep Guardiola formation is 4-3-3 when becoming Barcelona and Bayern Munich manager, due high intention in Premier League with many teams most prefer physical games play Pep Guardiola left his favorite formation becoming 3-2-4-1.

I see him almost fully use this strategy because Manchester City has a defender who has a fairly strong fission in surviving. Using a strategy like this can make players like Kyle Walker and Manuel Akanji can help build attacks to be faster and coordinated. But still have weaknesses when the opponent is able to take over the ball and carry out fast attacks because three defenders will have difficulty covering the space of opposing players.

So far the strategy used by Pep Guardiola is still quite effective even though in the last match they have to draw with Tottenham. The speed of the two players who helped the attack played a quite role because in addition to helping the attack they also had to quickly cover the movement of the opposing player when counterattacking and Pep Guardiola understands that in my opinion.

Last season, Manchester City have two top midfielder between İlkay Gündoğan and Kevin De Bruyne but when Pep Guardiola have loss both of them make difficult with balance on midfielder position. Thee draw matches in a row are bad achievement for Manchester City and Pep Guardiola won one against top six matches when facing Manchester United. On attacking midfielder position, Pep Guardiola have tried many option from Julian Alvarez and Bernando Silva but still difficult how to make balance midfielder between defensive and offensive. Probably with Erling Haaland have difficult scoring goals since Kevin De Bruyne get injury and he need great midfielder give assists for him on every match.

Upcoming match, Manchester City will face another top fourth standings team Aston Villa, how possibility for Pep Guardiola stopping draw record or Aston Villa will be the same as top fourth standing team make Guardiola difficult for winning match.

Manchester United are in the 7th position thanks to Brighton defeat but next game vs Chelsea isn't reassuring and they can drop in ranking if they lose it.

I also see that their performance this year is very worrying, of course if Chelsea is consistent in the match they will steal points at their opponent's base, this will again create a bad image for Manchester United. If they want to appear in other leagues next year, of course they have to maintain their current position until the end of this league, otherwise their hopes of appearing in other leagues will be dashed.

Chelsea players are showing some seriousness in some matches but they are not consistent in their winning which is the major challenge many people are experiencing from Chelsea in this season. If you look at the premier league table you will discovered that Manchester united is still ahead of Chelsea despite Chelsea won their last match with 3-2 to defeated their opponent, and nobody know if they will be able to win their next match to make people believe that they are good to increase their performance. If you look at Manchester united players very well, you will know that the challenges they are facing right now is the goalkeeper because since they brought this new keeper Onana, Manchester united started to experience some poor performance.

Manchester united will face Chelsea next and it's tomorrow game which I'm not frightened because my club is yet to lose to any big side this season. But Manchester United have lost against elite clubs and Chelsea might just be another match to experience defeats. The performance of the Blues do experienced volatility just like a crypto project in the market. Chelsea build-up sequence is the only I admire about the pattern of the Blues. I'm quietly telling the Red Devils supporters not to expect much from their club when they finally face Chelsea because when it comes to possession, we always dominate the match.

Another interesting match. Chelsea was rarely losing against the big club but it was consistently losing against the small clubs. Otherwise, manchester united has good record against the small club while it was consistently losing against the big clubs.
The upcoming match is quite hard to predict and im sure palmer will be playing against manchester united. As long as united will be using meguire or antony as starting line up. It will be increasing chelsea's chance to win the upcoming games.
It's likely i have to choose BTTS / double chance. Chelsea is going to play at old trafford which will make the club needs to go all in against united. Chelsea's hard fixtures will be coming to the its end.
Pochettino needs to make sure it will be able to play with the best squad. We may be seeing badiashile to play as centre back again as well as thiago silva.

That's a good one, comparing Chelsea to a pump and dump coin in the crypto market. I think you might be onto something here.

But in all seriousness, this game could go anywhere. It's tough to tell which team is more forced to deliver, but I think that Chelsea is at a point where expectations have started to shrink. The fans and the more neutral spectators like me don't expect too much from them anymore. I also don't expect much from Manchester United, but they still perceive themselves as the next Champions League winner due to ten Hag's arrogant attitude. I don't understand why he doesn't get sacked, I don't get it. I hope that Chelsea destroys them 0-3 at Old Trafford to finally send ten Hag home.

I'm rooting for Chelsea this time, even though they have shitty player which is Mudryk, but there are still other good players unlike in Manchester United.

Chelsea can score many goals against Tottenham, Manchester City and Brighton are already a good achievement because they can give a tough time. While Manchester United, they only won against Everton and Luton Town, two of weakest clubs in Premier League.

Chelsea is now being compared to crypto projects LOL. Both teams are not in their best shape and they both still have alot of areas to improve on but despite Chelsea’s lack of consistency and current position on the table we all still know Chelsea is in better shape than Manchester United. Chelsea have a fine record of giving best performances against elite clubs but my question now is can Manchester United be considered an elite club as it stands? I don’t think they are so i still have a little fear as we play against them tomorrow.

It’s been a while Chelsea win against Manchester United but they are well known be play a number of draws in their last few games. If only Chelsea can be serious enough and play like they played when they faced Manchester City and Arsenal then they will easily win Manchester United and like you said Chelsea have improved in their build up play and always dominate games. For me I think the match is likely to be a draw match.

I'm rooting for Chelsea this time, even though they have shitty player which is Mudryk, but there are still other good players unlike in Manchester United.

Why do you sound like an Arsenal fan who is still crying over Mudryk 😅

Mudryk might be shitty to you but we still love him and he is showing signs of improvement.

[Mr.right85]

I’m looking out for Luton town vs Arsenal. It’s going to be one of the toughest fixtures this midweek. 10 trips to Kenilworth Road, and Arsenal have won none, drawn six and lost four in all competitions. I know Arsenal are commanding the standings with 33 points and in a great form. On paper they are big favorites against Luton Town to emerge victorious and keep fighting alongside Manchester City and Liverpool at the top of the standings. But something within me tells me that Arsenal will struggle at Kenilworth road. I think they tend to be more defensive and play better when playing at home. They recorded a draw against Liverpool and it’s enough to show how solid they can be at home. Arteta will want his team to maintain the top position. As it happened last season, Arsenal have had a great start to the Premier League season and will be looking to win the title after not being able to secure the first spot last campaign.

Luton Town should be in the relegation zone right now if Everton did not receive a 10 point deduction. And this shows how bad Luton's performance is in the Premier League. I don't think Luton are ready to stay in the Premier League any longer. So even in the match against Arsenal, I think Luton will suffer a pretty big defeat. In fact, I think Luton wouldn't dare to use an offensive strategy even if they were playing in front of their own supporters.

I will favor Arsenal with great certainty and confidence. My prediction for this match is 1-2 and Arsenal will win. I'm sure Arteta will really think this match is important. Because Arsenal must maintain their ranking at the top of the standings. Arsenal must not lose points again if they don't want first place to be taken by Man City or someone else.

[rendravolt]

It was great to see Everton finally win again after the last time they did it was against Crystal Palace two weeks earlier. Last night's win against Nottingham was also special because they needed points to move out of the relegation zone after being deducted 10 points some time ago.

Against Nottigham in an away game is certainly not easy for Everton but this narrow victory will definitely pump up the enthusiasm of the whole team to get a better finishing place for this season. Despite the problems that Everton have faced, I think they still deserve to be in the EPL until next season and now it's just a matter of how they maintain their current performance in the next match.

In recent times Everton had been at the bottom of the standings, but after a 1-0 victory over Notitngham Forest, at least the victory managed to slightly raise Everton's ranking to 18th position. And this is the third consecutive away win for Everton. And for the next match I am a little pessimistic because in the next match they have to face Newcasstle, which for the time being "The Magpies" are ranked 6th in the standings. and in the previous match The Magpies performed quite well against the red devils yesterday. And whether the Toffes, which is Sean Dyche's club, will be able to fight The Magpies, which is Eddie Howe's club. And will Everton be able to move back up the rankings? We'll see. Because I'm quite curious .. hihi

That's right and Everton only needs one more win to escape the relegation zone. They are still showing their mentality and never giving up at all to be able to end this season with better results. It's just that their next opponent is Newcastle and we will definitely doubt that Everton can win this match.

It certainly won't be easy to beat Newcastle, especially since Eddie Howie's squad is on fire. But Everton's advantage here is as hosts and if they can win by a narrow score again then they will shift Luton's position in the standings. Besides, Luton this week will play Arsenal and their chances of winning are very impossible and let's see what the result will be.

I think Chelsea would manage to get at least a draw at Old Trafford else even a win based on my analysis on the team performances against top clubs this season, they drew Liverpool, Arsenal, Man City respectively and defeated Tottenham though I absolutely agreed that Chelsea remain inconsistent especially when they play average premier league clubs yet they always put up brilliantly performance against top clubs, Man Utd had become shadow of former self, not formidable like before, their players had dropped form and Onana their goalkeeper is prone to mistakes all these would count against the team when they play Chelsea.

But if we consider there are some changes in Man City squad, we can understand that Man City are possible to get draws or loses. Also, it is true that Man City played against strong teams in EPL in the last 3 matches. So, it is not easy for Man City to get full points. Moreover, since De Bruyne got injury for a long time, Man City performance is decreasing a lot. Pep still can't get a proper solution for this problem, it seems no player has the similar capability as De Bruyne. I think Bernardo Silva can be the right player to replace him, but it seems Bernardo Silva has a different style in playing. So, he can't be an effective solution for the absence of De Bruyne.

Upcoming match, Manchester City will face another top fourth standings team Aston Villa, how possibility for Pep Guardiola stopping draw record or Aston Villa will be the same as top fourth standing team make Guardiola difficult for winning match.

This season it seems that Manchester City is not as strong as last season when they still had 2 great midfielders who were able to provide assists to Erling Haaland so that Erling Haaland was able to score lots of goals thanks to these opportunities. Now Ilkay Gundongan is no longer at the club and Kevin de Bruyne is injured. Erling Haaland must continue to fight to take advantage of the opportunities that exist, consecutive draws are a result that Pep Guardiola does not want to expect because Manchester City has lost a lot of points thanks to consecutive draws and now Manchester City is in 3rd place with a difference of 3 points from Arsenal.

Manchester City's previous two tough matches were held at the Etihad but unfortunately Manchester City did not manage to use their full strength at home and in the next tough match Manchester City will play away at Aston Vila's headquarters. These two teams have a difference of 1 point where Aston Vila is at 4th ranked Manchester City will experience pressure from the home team. If Manchester City cannot win, Manchester City will continue to fall from the top 3 and this is a bad achievement for Manchester City as a team that won the title last season.

Don`t see completely see Man city as if they lost their last season form, the three team they played against last season had a bad season especially Chelsea who is still trying to get back to winning ways, while Liverpool is back now, Spurs is just currently affected with injuries which has affected them in their recent match but above all Pep would be really disappointed not to get the entire point against spurs since they were the better team

It appears that Manchester City are losing their form due to unexpected events, even Pep Guardiola will have noticed the absence of two great midfielders Gündoan and Kevin De Bruyne, he will really miss them, the absence of Kevin De Bruyne is really affecting the club and last time other suggested that they should let him go because he only played one game since the beginning and up to now the club is still moving without him, but now they have started noticing is absent despite his old age he still have more to offer and getting young talented player like him we be very hard, even Haaland his not scoring goals like he used to be, truly Manchester City are falling out.

All I can say is that Manchester city weren’t this poor defensively last season. They have been conceding a lot of goals this season and this run of draws is the longest Manchester City have gone without three points since Guardiola's first campaign. Many might not see it because they have gone through hurdles like this and still bounced back. It’s bad that Manchester City have led against Chelsea, Liverpool, and Tottenham but have conceded eight goals in those 3 fixtures as many as they have let in in their other 11 matches combined. That has to be a concern.  We all know that it’s hard to win anything with an unreliable defence. The absence of Debruyne isn’t restricting their attacking play. They have scored 36 goals so far, and I think they’re doing well. Where the concern lies is in the defense and Pep should find a solution to that.

[HajiBagi]

If you compare it with last season, it might be a little less good compared to this season. This season, many teams have returned to their respective top performances so that competition in the Premier League is getting tighter, and last season they (Manchester City) had the most genius figure in midfield, namely Kevin De Bruyne, it was proven by how he made so many passes and in finished well by their attackers, so there is a lot of hope that in every match they will win.

So what about this season? It is clear that in the last few matches they have not achieved maximum standings points, so the victory they usually get has been postponed.

I think Kelvin Debruyne's injury and absence from the squad really affected their performance this season, the most surprising is the game they Lost to Wolverhampton, that's something that got everyone suprised however that's what football is all about (full of suprises) well one thing I like about Pep is that he doesn't tolerate failure and doesn't like to keep a long losing streak like most big teams.

 Manchester City should be write-off from winning the league yet, cause there's a saying that it's not over until it's over and since they still got alot of matches to be played then City should be considered a very top tough competitors for the title,  they could suprisenly win a set a new record that would Marvel everyone,  don't for this is Manchester City and Pep Guardiola is their coach .

Kevin Debruyne's absence doesn't seem to be having an impact on the team; in fact, the team is performing well and I think Manchester City will return to its typical level of play. The only thing that ruined the match between Manchester City and Tottenham was the referee. The referee is to blame for everything that has happened to Manchester City. Haaland is upset with the referee because he doesn't understand the benefit of a player winning the ball when he is fouled; if it weren't for the referee, I think Manchester City would have scored more goals against Tottenham.

Regarding Debruyne's absence, I don't think it's the main factor hurting the team because Rodri is already on the team and will always be the first player mentioned when discussing the best player in the world at the number four position. The team knows Rodri is excellent in that position, so even if Debruyne were to return, I don't think the team would use him in the same way because Rodri currently holds that position. I know Debruyne is an excellent midfield player that no one can challenge, but Rodri is also good right now.
