Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[hahay]

In as much as luck was on Arsenal side they still played like a team who wants to win the English premier league. This is the type of spirit they need, although Luton gave them a run for their money Arsenal handled the storm like a champion. Now the pressure has now shifted back to Manchester city, they need to win to draw the gap between them and Arsenal. From a neutral point of view I would love to see Arsenal win because they have really invested so much in this.

Yes, basically Arsenal has big ambitions to get the Premier League trophy, because Arsenal also managed to compete well for the title from last season too. But at this moment, it looks like Arsenal has a better chance compared to last season, because at this moment Manchester City seems to be in a difficult situation to consistently win in every match. With the results not being completely good for Manchester City at this moment, it will of course be a good opportunity for Arsenal and perhaps also for Liverpool to become strong candidates to get the Premier League trophy this season.

Aston Villa vs Manchester City last 5 encounters were 4 loss from Aston Villa, which means that Manchester City won the 4 matches and they draw 1 and not a single match that was won by Aston Villa even in the ones the played in the home match. This is nothing but great indication that Aston Villa are going to suffer another great loss tonight and if Tottenham try harder, they might come up a little bit.

Aston Villa did not seem as good as they do currently in the previous five seasons. Aston Villa is doing exceptionally well this season. However, Manchester City, who is generally a very good team, has appeared to be a little weaker lately. Therefore, I'm not entirely sure if Aston Villa will struggle against Manchester City this evening. Manchester City may win, but I cannot promise that they will, even if they play to the best of their abilities. It's a little unclear, so we'll have to wait and see how tonight's game plays out.

Many people think Tottenham will probably win the forthcoming match against West Ham. This is due to the fact that the team playing in their own stadium referred to as the home team usually has a higher chance of winning when these two teams clash. Tottenham appears to frequently have an advantage when playing at home, based on their historical performances. Some believe Tottenham will win this match despite the fact that they haven't been playing very well this lately.but let see what will happen tomorrow.

Since both teams are performing very well this past few week i am not certain that there will be a draw match but am certain that one of them will defeat the other and take the victory home. Aston villa will play to their best because they would want to be above Manchester City since there is only one point difference separating them. This is indeed a very tough match to watch and the way i see it there is a 35 percent chances of Aston villa winning the game and 45 percent chances of Manchester City winning the game the rest percentage should be given to draw option. By the end of today we will be knowing who will be topping third place on the premier league table and drag second place with Liverpool. We may see similar match experience from yesterday game which is Luton vs Arsenal and similar score line in today's game. This is because i am certain that the both team will score at consistence interval.

Now the pressure has now shifted back to Manchester city, they need to win to draw the gap between them and Arsenal. From a neutral point of view I would love to see Arsenal win because they have really invested so much in this.

If not even because the gunners have instead so much this season then for the fact they Manchester city have won the league back to back and them winning the league wouldn't be interested anymore as they would make it looks so less competitive just like some league where only one wins everything and everything, and also plus the fact that arsenal deserve the last season trophy but since injury affected their team they felt out of luck and loses their focus and that's why most English premier league fans are all wishing for another team even if not arsenal to win the league.

[Roseline492]

There will be a few key matches today, one of which is Aston Villa vs Man City... I think it will be no less interesting battle... Aston Villa are in great form now and can face Man City... I think they can even win... But if there is a draw, the gap between Arsenal and Man City will increase...

All eyes are in this match as it will be a key pointer to the seriousness of Manchester City in pursuing the title this season.  Aston Villa have been a strong side this season both in the domestic league and the European leagues Since Unai Emery took over as manager from Stephen Gerald last year.
Interestingly,  Aston Villa have won all their home matches this league season and have remained at fourth position behind Liverpool.  Will they maintain their clean home record or yield to the fire power of the Cities? This is indeed a difficult match to predict as the match can go either side.

You are certainly right, Liverpool, Arsenal, Aston Villa and Manchester City are some of the teams that are unbeatable at home. An interesting fact about Aston Villa is that they have taken all the points in home games, especially in 6 home games so far. Manchester City is certainly the team most likely to stop that good streak today mainly because of the quality and depth of its squad.

I regret to say that Manchester City was cheated by the referee in the match against Tottenham a few days ago, but today they have a mission that cannot be defeated or dropped points. I'm sure this is a difficult mission considering the consistency of Aston Villa's performance, but Manchester City was very convincing in this match to win.

Yeah that's true but however I believe that there today's match will not be like there Tottenham Hotspur match because there goal on today's match is to show Aston Villa that they can never be challenged, although we are aware that Aston Villa are not mostly easy to win in there home but today is very certain that Manchester City will surely break that record because there is no way we can compare the both teams in times of performance when we no that Manchester City has a strong squad. So I don't really think Aston Villa can defeat Manchester City.

[Wiwo]

You are right, I totally overlooked that Manchester City is on a streak without winning and this could probably be the fourth game in a row without a win. I wonder when this happened to them the last time. But it is encouraging to see that Manchester City can't just destroy every team in the Premier League this season. Chelsea fought back, Liverpool and Tottenham and it would be quite revealing if Manchester City does not win the game against Aston Villa because not winning any of the games against the top teams from the Premier League could provide some insight into their chances in the Champions League as well. This year won't be easy for them.

Well, a lot has been wrong with Manchester City in this season and their performance in the champion League and the Premiere Ship have been below their usual standard play I don't know why their performance declined a lot this season and there has not been any attempt to recover the club even as their players line up have a lot of good players on the ground but still yet their performance has been either a lose or multiple draws,  this 2023-2024 season have been the worst season for the club and if things don't change for Manchester City their may lose out completely and the reason will either be that the will power to sustain the title in man city have been lost and if care is not taken,  in the next season Manchester city may lose out in the top 5 on the list.

Maybe this season we will see more of clubs like Arsenal and Liverpool to rule the season and also Beyarn Munich also is a top club also that will destabilize Manchester City's position in this season and the seasons ahead.

This season is totally different from last season Man City is not the only team in form, Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs are stronger this season but if Man City can't get a win today against Aston villa then it's a fact that they are a shadow of their last season though we know that some of their key players are injured while others are out of the club this season but this should not be an excuse for Pep and the entire city squad if they are in form.

In as much as luck was on Arsenal side they still played like a team who wants to win the English premier league.

Declan Rice step up for the team again, Luton really made the game difficult for Arsenal just like how Fulham did to Liverpool but in the end the big team got the 3 points.

Aston Villa vs Manchester City last 5 encounters were 4 loss from Aston Villa, which means that Manchester City won the 4 matches and they draw 1 and not a single match that was won by Aston Villa even in the ones the played in the home match. This is nothing but great indication that Aston Villa are going to suffer another great loss tonight and if Tottenham try harder, they might come up a little bit.

facing Aston Villa, Man City must not be careless. Aston Villa had beaten Tottenham. Team situations do change sometimes. but no one will doubt Man City when facing Aston Villa. Man City will be the favorite.
Man City's next few matches should be quite easy. they just have to concentrate and try to play with a stable performance. I think Pep knows very well when he has to save players and when he should instead field his best squad. They are currently in 3rd place in the standings, but they are not far behind from the top. The top EPL competition is always interesting.

Manchester city’s 3-3 draw against Tottenham stretched City’s winless run to three matches and leaves them three points behind leaders Liverpool. Going into this game against Aston Villa, I’m concern about two things. They are at Aston Villa on Wednesday night, who have won all six of their home matches so far and lie fourth. And Pep will be without the injured Doku, plus suspended pair Rodri and Jack Grealish.

The last time Manchester city were without Rodri, they went 3 straight games without a win and I am afraid that’s what might happen tonight at Villa’s park. Right now there’s plenty at stake for both sides. A victory for Manchester city would allow them to keep chasing Arsenal and Liverpool, while a win for Aston Villa would, at least, see them climb to the third spot, overtaking Manchester City in the league table.

Aston Villa and Manchester City will be an interesting match to watch tonight. With the current form of Manchester City, they will find it difficult to win at Villa Park because Aston Villa will want to win against Manchester City so they can occupy the third spot, but I see the match as both teams to score.

[Richbased]

There will be a few key matches today, one of which is Aston Villa vs Man City... I think it will be no less interesting battle... Aston Villa are in great form now and can face Man City... I think they can even win... But if there is a draw, the gap between Arsenal and Man City will increase...

I am so bothered about the Chelsea vs Manchester United’s game, i am so confused and i still don’t know the booker to pick in this match. Yes Chelsea looks more stronger and are the favorites to win but again small teams they so inconsistent so I don’t if they will consider Man United a stronger opponent or a smaller one.  Manchester United on the other hand have been poor and have worse games when they play at home but i have noticed that when they face Chelsea they seem to become a strong side overnight. Chelsea have not won a match against Manchester United since their last 5 matches, they have only managed a couple of draws so i am thinking maybe this could also be a draw match.   I still Hope Chelsea’s can win though.

I don't think Chelsea will view Manchester United as a lesser opponent, regardless of how they lose form. Meanwhile, this will be a difficult game at Old Trafford but in my opinion, I believe Chelsea has a better chance of winning today's game because they hardly lose when they play against strong opponents. Manchester United performance is very poor this season because I still find it unbelievable that Manchester United lost their Champions League match against Galatasaray. Onana hasn't done much to help them win But the guy is good, he's just not been as lucky this season, but if they give him more time, I think he can improve.
So Chelsea will therefore have a better opportunity to take advantage of their opportunities against Man United and Onana, as everyone is aware of the Onana issues this season and also the team lack of consistency.

Exactly what i have in mind as well like Chelsea were not in form but yet they drew title contenders like Arsenal and Manchester city though Chelsea and Manchester united are almost in same form as their matches are unpredictable until after the end of their matches, sometimes you will give them odd to win less competitive clubs but they would lose or draw the matches like they are two clubs that is inconsistent because they can win their match this week then their next match they will just lose very unstable two clubs although they may settle for a draw in this match.

[QueenVera]

The way Manchester City were disappointed in their last match With Tottenham, I'm sure that they will not take any chances this time again, loook at Arsenal has given them space that they have to win atleast 2 matches to come in good place with Arsenal and they need above that to pass Arsenal but we know that while Manchester City is preparing to do that, Arsenal will have double that by the time Manchester City are coming closer. Aston Villa might be the home but I think Manchester City will dominate this match and most likely win it.

Aston Villa vs Manchester City last 5 encounters were 4 loss from Aston Villa, which means that Manchester City won the 4 matches and they draw 1 and not a single match that was won by Aston Villa even in the ones the played in the home match. This is nothing but great indication that Aston Villa are going to suffer another great loss tonight and if Tottenham try harder, they might come up a little bit.

Few days back, Manchester City were again held to a draw against Tottenham Hotspurs at the Etihad, it actually didn't seem encouraging and impressing because they're a better side to their opponent but football being unpredictable saw the ability and strength of Hotspur put to a test. For Hotspur it was a big feat as well as they as Chelsea have been able to suppress City. The City boys had an equal share of points which didn't and doesn't speak well for their position on the league table, although that doesn't necessarily mean that they do not have the ability to cover up the paces and differences because they're even more than capable to do so.

 They just have to put all in check and they still stand a huge chance at the trophy, tonight's game against Villa side is definitely a sure win for them and an additional 3 points is set to be secured. The host advantage will be in favor of the Villa side no doubt and definitely they've been doing well when they've had encounters with a few teams. I believe that they'd at least try to get a goal in their racket in tonight's game but which ever way, City's winning power is high.

[salad daging]

And the match will be held at Aston Villa's home ground at the Villa Park stadium, even though Manchester City are favored, Aston Villa will have the advantage because they will be playing in front of their supporters.

Aston Villa have an unbelievable record at home this season, so this game is going to be very difficult for City to win, to add to the difficulty, City will be missing both Rodri and Grealish to suspension, we are also not sure if Doku would be fit enough to play, he limped off against Spurs and we'd have to wait and see to lineup to know if he is fit and ready to play tonight.

City have to win and close to gap to Arsenal, Aston Villa want also want to win, so they can continue their incredible form at home and also climb above City, it is going to be such an entertaining game from a neutral point of view, but 3 points will be so important for either team.

The line is out and indeed Doku is not included in the match list tonight, maybe he is tired or has problems with his injury, but Manchester City still has a substitute that is quite reliable from my right and left filled by Foden and Silva, so their attack is still quite sharp.

However, the defensive midfielders are filled by two players Akanji and Stones to replace the suspended Rodri.

This is interesting... Both teams are in good form, only Manchester City are experiencing bad luck because they have to be held to a draw of 3x, this time it is clear that Manchester City are favored, I am sure this team will win, not forgetting that Aston Villa can play aggressively at home.

~Snip

The hope is that Arsenal can improve and minimize the problems that occurred last season.
Arsenal are actually very good, it's just that the problem every season they remain the same where the increase and decrease in performance quickly always occurs.
Last season we know that they seemed to waste opportunities that were actually very wide open for them and now Arsenal still have the same hope that their performance in the middle and end of the season is not like the previous season.
But now Manchester City will also not stay him I think. his position has dropped 2 levels to position 3 because of 3 results that are not very satisfying so indeed in the match that occurs this week against Aston Villa it is likely that they will try their best for 3 points.

There is no easy match, even Arsenal themselves had to fight tooth and nail to beat Luton Town. Arsenal almost lost maximum points if the referee blew the whistle exactly in the sixth minute of injury time, but that didn't happen because Arsenal took advantage of the last seconds to build an attack and they managed to score a goal in just over a minute of injury time.

Not only Arsenal, all other teams are also struggling to win the match because each team needs points. Liverpool, Manchester City, Tottenham, Aston Villa, Chelsea and Manchester United are the same, so there is no exception to that. That is why every manager must be careful in rotating his players in each match, clearly this will affect the team's performance and game.

This is what makes the EPL even more interesting because there are always a lot of surprises that happen every week and even though we know that some big clubs can always dominate but the small clubs in the EPL also always provide extraordinary surprises including Luton who in yesterday match was outstanding even though they had to eventually still lose point but with the resistance they showed in this match deserves to be given praise.

Now we will see some of the matches that happened today and Liverpool is facing Sheffileld United. I look forward to another surprise because last week Liverpool also struggled against Fulham and hopefully Sehffield provides a good defense because for victory im still confident for Liverpool.
 

[Hyphen(-)]

Aston Villa have an unbelievable record at home this season, so this game is going to be very difficult for City to win, to add to the difficulty, City will be missing both Rodri and Grealish to suspension, we are also not sure if Doku would be fit enough to play, he limped off against Spurs and we'd have to wait and see to lineup to know if he is fit and ready to play tonight.

City lined up without some of their key players again this season, the absence of Rodri is a very crucial moment for the team because he is one of the most important player in the team alongside Kevin De Bruyne who is injured since the beginning of the season, and seeing that Aston Villa under Uni Emrey has become a team that is competing for title and champions league spot unlike last season, they will want to use the opportunity of some missing players in the Manchester City’s squad to see if they can get three points or at least to share equal points in the match.

City have to win and close to gap to Arsenal, Aston Villa want also want to win, so they can continue their incredible form at home and also climb above City, it is going to be such an entertaining game from a neutral point of view, but 3 points will be so important for either team.

Aston Villa has won Chelsea and Tottenham this season, and seeing that they are the fourth in the premier league table, and are very incredibly in form especially while playing at home will like to maintain their performance and win or draw this match which is very possible because Manchester City team is not complete even though I know that they will not lose either becauthey also wants to close some gap between them and Arsenal.

[Unsoldier]

And the match will be held at Aston Villa's home ground at the Villa Park stadium, even though Manchester City are favored, Aston Villa will have the advantage because they will be playing in front of their supporters.

Aston Villa have an unbelievable record at home this season, so this game is going to be very difficult for City to win, to add to the difficulty, City will be missing both Rodri and Grealish to suspension, we are also not sure if Doku would be fit enough to play, he limped off against Spurs and we'd have to wait and see to lineup to know if he is fit and ready to play tonight.

City have to win and close to gap to Arsenal, Aston Villa want also want to win, so they can continue their incredible form at home and also climb above City, it is going to be such an entertaining game from a neutral point of view, but 3 points will be so important for either team.

I believe that the Citizens can succeed, but I think the team is tired. If it's a draw again, I won't be surprised. I have a feeling that Manchester City is not aiming to become EPL champions this season. Besides, Aston Villa is a difficult opponent for Man City, so it's better to bet on both teams to score.

[swogerino]

Is it just me or there is an unwritten law that surprise results happen during the midweek games of Premier League.I see most games are not going as they are supposed to as I see Crystal Palace losing against a weak team like Bournemouth (of course Crystal Palace is not a big team) and Brighton is losing against Brentford so far in just 30 minutes of game play.

Let's see how the big games will end but I am sure surprise results will happen in both Manchester games and for United if they lose I would not be surprised at all considering their recent performance which leaves a lot to be desired from them.

[MinoRaiola]

I don't think Chelsea will view Manchester United as a lesser opponent, regardless of how they lose form. Meanwhile, this will be a difficult game at Old Trafford but in my opinion, I believe Chelsea has a better chance of winning today's game because they hardly lose when they play against strong opponents. Manchester United performance is very poor this season because I still find it unbelievable that Manchester United lost their Champions League match against Galatasaray. Onana hasn't done much to help them win But the guy is good, he's just not been as lucky this season, but if they give him more time, I think he can improve.
So Chelsea will therefore have a better opportunity to take advantage of their opportunities against Man United and Onana, as everyone is aware of the Onana issues this season and also the team lack of consistency.

The top match of the day kicks off in a few minutes. When you read these two names, you think they are ranked 1-3 in the premier league, but they are currently ranked 7 and 11... strange. I would say chelseas last 10 games have been better than manchester uniteds. Both teams play with only 1 striker and 3 offensive midfielders behind them. Although they play in manchester, i think chelsea are the better team, thats what also the odds say.

[RockBell]

In as much as luck was on Arsenal side they still played like a team who wants to win the English premier league. This is the type of spirit they need, although Luton gave them a run for their money Arsenal handled the storm like a champion. Now the pressure has now shifted back to Manchester city, they need to win to draw the gap between them and Arsenal. From a neutral point of view I would love to see Arsenal win because they have really invested so much in this.

would you say Arsenal is lucky? That is not true because Mr arsenal was putting maximum effort not to lose against Luton if you look at the whole thing, the way Arsenal was playing was different they were so focused and wanted to win at all costs and that is what champions do and now the whole thing is serious they arsenal is ready to earn they tittle all we need is to clear all the games we have this December and clubs I fear now is Liverpool. and January Arteta needs to feel in more space to get players that are better than saka and Gabriel Jesus and that is one of the strategies that Guardiola uses he always gets players that are better than his player so any time he needs to replace a player during a game there is noting to be scared of, but of the sincere truth everyone was impressed with arsenal performance yesterday and more to come. and a lot of people did not see this coming and that was what made me happy the most, arsenal does not need to be predictable.

[Onyeeze]

I think today match Chelsea and Manchester United is the most interested match, the place I'm now to watch the match  lot of arguments has being going on that Chelsea will lose the match against Manchester United and many others have being saying that the match will be draw, so I don't know your predictions concerning this two matches because the match is about to kickoff and many people is still contemplating that Manchester United is going to defeat Chelsea so on your observation what do you think that will be Chelsea deficiency that will make Manchester to defeat them, or what do you think that will make Chelsea to them, so what is the fault you notice in Chelsea or Manchester, or do you think is going to be draw.

[Docnaster]

In as much as luck was on Arsenal side they still played like a team who wants to win the English premier league. This is the type of spirit they need, although Luton gave them a run for their money Arsenal handled the storm like a champion. Now the pressure has now shifted back to Manchester city, they need to win to draw the gap between them and Arsenal. From a neutral point of view I would love to see Arsenal win because they have really invested so much in this.

If not even because the gunners have instead so much this season then for the fact they Manchester city have won the league back to back and them winning the league wouldn't be interested anymore as they would make it looks so less competitive just like some league where only one wins everything and everything, and also plus the fact that arsenal deserve the last season trophy but since injury affected their team they felt out of luck and loses their focus and that's why most English premier league fans are all wishing for another team even if not arsenal to win the league.

Majority people are seriously  in support of Arsenal to win the league. Not necessarily Arsenal, but any other club that can be able to outplay Manchester City. Honestly I will not be happy with England football as a whole if Manchester city happens to win this season English premier League again. While I am very confident that another team could win the Premier League title of this year is  because, it is not only Arsenal that is ahead of Manchester city or contesting with them. There is also Liverpool who we all know is a major competitor of Manchester city. And I believe that it is them that can fight this to the end.
