Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[SOKO-DEKE]

I really have interest in this game because l want to observe CHRIS Wilder in his first game as the new manager of Sheffield Utd, although is too early to decide on what he can offer, because he came when club is in total mess, I noticed an improvement against Liverpool, Liverpool is one of top four club in the table and they are able to withstand the pressure mounting on them by Liverpool compared with the strong club played before and also control the limited concede  goal.

Liverpool was a serious test for the new manager of Sheffield. Liverpool is very serious with every game they play; they want to be in the Champions league next season. Manchester City are losing currently by a goal to Aston Villa, and if this game ends like this, Manchester City will be pushed to fourth on the premier league table which will be a position that they never dropped to last season. Manchester City will not find it easy to defend their title as their manager expressed confidence that they would in the interview he had.

Despite the fact that it was Sheffield's first game as a new manager, and I know he will do anything possible to impress the club, I don't still expect great performances from them against Liverpool because Liverpool's is far better than Sheffield's. So I did not thought the game would look challenging for Liverpool, and seriously, there are not many challenges because Liverpool was able to win the game with goals and gain their three points, and I think that is enough for them. With this Liverpool consistency performance show, they are ready to drag this premier league title with Arsenal and Manchester City as expected to be the win of the season predicted.

[letteredhub]

Manchester City lose another match today, they are now six points behind Arsenal and four points behind Liverpool, and their manager Pep is already making mouth that his team still remains the best in the league and they will
Win the league which to me I think is a mind game, unfortunately his team lost to Aston Villa as expected by Arsenal fans and others.

Manchester United also won their home game against the blues Chelsea.

I don't know what Gardiola is planning behind the closet but it's not seeming good at all, this isn't last season that the table turned around in their favour at the last moment, if he keeps losing points to the advantage of Arsenal it will be hard for City to catch up when the Arsenal train must have left the station with much higher points than it is now. Artheta must have learnt from his mistakes last season and you don't expect him to repeat it again. Tonight's match was out of normal for Aston villa holding City half field pressing with all they have and gaining possession of the game from start to finish, it was a deserving win for the Villa's.

Manchester united against Chelsea was just another game for tonight, United played as if th y are back to form but it's just a shambles maybe in their next game if they still deliver same great  performance then their fan can start taking them serious ones again. As for Chelsea it was just another day of mistakes after another no complete passes, and many of the players like Caceido, Enzo and Jackson were no where to be found on the pitch, aside from Sanchez and Cucurella that were of good behavior with a lot of interceptions and savings else it would be more goals than just the 2:1 in favour of Manchester united.

This Villa team won Tottenham at home a few weeks ago.

Although Spurs aren't a reference since they are very instable and fluctuating a lot but I agree that Aston Villa are doing good this season overall. Today's game against Manchester City was another story, it was a very good result for them and shocking one for Manchester City fans and management. Guardiola is witnessing the 4th bad result in a row and the decrease in the ranking for his team.
Gunners won with difficulty their game vs Luton Town and Manchester United made an important victory against Chelsea. They are 3 points far from Manchester City!!

[Marykeller]

It's unbelievable that Chelsea equalise in the first half, whereas Manchester United would have score two goals assuming the penalty kick was scored but Manchester United lose the penalty to Chelsea, even the Chelsea had penalty to Manchester inside eighteen but the referee couldn't notice that earlier, I will say it has not be notice earlier is because the last man device was faulty and they couldn't detect it easily, so Chelsea equalise the match unexpectedly because Chelsea have missed almost two chances and the third attempt Cole Palmer scored the goal, I believe that this will end 2:1 or draw, but Manchester United is seen to defeat the match because their pressure is much to Chelsea, the first half ended 1:1

Manchester United dominated the first and second half of the match between them and Chelsea. I am happy that they managed to win over Chelsea despite losing a penalty and other good chances to score.

Chelsea's performance these days is not quite encouraging to watch them play. Their formation of playing a counterattack kind of football against their opponent does not favor them. I wonder who gives Pochettino that kind of football tactics. All I want is for him to change Chelsea's formation to a better one. He can't have quality players in the team and still fails to utilize them to win matches for the team comfortably. That's too bad and it makes no sense

[rahmad2nd]

At this point it is safe to say that the Red Devils have had their way against the Blues with the 69th minutes goal from Scott McTominay to make it  2:1. This match was actually very difficult to predict as many people had already commented because the match could have gone either ways.

If this match end this way, Manchester United will have the same point with Tottenham and dragging the 5th position for the Europa league next season.

I didn't watch this match, but based on the match results, statistics and goals scored by these two teams, I have the data. I want to comment from United's side first, Ten Hag's decision not to make Marcus Rashford a starter was the right choice. Occasionally, if a player plays badly, Ten Hag must have the courage to replace him or let him sit on the bench. and referring to the existing player statistics, there are only a few United players who underperform, especially defenders. plus, Onana. the rest, have quite good statistical value.
Unfortunately, Hojlund was again unable to prove or score his first goal. I don't dare to talk too much, because I didn't watch this match directly. However, based on statistics, Chelsea are much better, both in terms of ball control and technical matters. The difference is that United had a lot of total shots, but both teams had the same 5 big chances.

As for Chelsea, once again Poche relies on stickers which are difficult to score goals. The difference with Hojlund is that he performed well in this match. while Nicolas Jackson again underperformed. I can't help but wonder whether Poche doesn't have another alternative for him to use as a center forward. Apart from that, in this match Enzo didn't play optimally and he even played badly. Fortunately, the Chelsea goalkeeper played very well with 7 saves. but the final result, United won this match.

In another match, I started to get confused about City. In fact, I'm too lazy to review and research the statistics. What is certain is that City was defeated by Aston Villa. and this is good news for supporters of other teams.

this is really going to be devastating for City and their fans because the result they got tonight was not one they expected,and if they had told me that Aston Villa could win City,I wouldn't have believed,but now I'm beginning to see more reasons why Emery said he would make the top four hot for the people that occupy those positions.Credit to Villa as they defeated City who are the reigning champions.This victory will give them added boost of moral as they face the gunners this weekend.
Mikel Arteta will begin to make plans on how to win them if he wants to show to people that he is ready to win the tittle this season.I predit Arsenal to get a 2:1 win against them on Saturday.

[Asiska02]

Well, finally Manchester United scored the second goal and won the match, McTominay deserves to be man of the match today after scoring 2 goals. On Chelsea side, this defeat will confirm Chelsea status as an unstable team where in each of the last 5 matches they will experience a win, draw and loss but yeah overall it's not bad because the one who beat them was another strong team starting with Newcastle and Manchester United today.

This match was suppose to end in an even draw but since the match was played at Old Trafford, Manchester United leveraged on that and won the match today. I am very impressed with their performance today because they outplayed Chelsea to win their match tonight. Both teams have been in inconsistent and this win is not enough proof that they will be back to form following their next match. Likewise Chelsea hasn’t proven that they will also lose their next match after losing to Manchester United tonight. Both teams are unpredictable, it will take time to know where the future of each team leads them.

In another match, Aston Villa actually beat Manchester City even though previously we hoped that the two teams would play a draw and Liverpool and Arsenal clearly took advantage of Manchester City defeat they continued to leave Man City behind, Aston Villa unexpectedly managed to take 3rd place even though we know it's only temporary.

The park is indeed a place to be feared by many teams. Aston Villa win against Manchester City was a surprise to me although they’ve shown a lot more expertise in the first half before scoring in the second half. Manchester City will be lagging behind Liverpool and Arsenal whom both won this weeks games. This is a good opportunity for Arsenal to dominate the league more if they know how to manage this point gap well.

[Iroh]

What's really wrong with the city boys I don't seem to understand the issue with them, I thought city will definitely come with full force but no I predicted wrongly and am disappointed, let's no judge yet Aston might maintain the position for long.

I’m still at a loss at exactly what happened in that game as I had expected Manchester City to have won that game and kinda easily too. They didn’t play up to expectations and lost the match as a result. Aston Villa had some really good chances and it deserved the goal later scored in the second half of the game.
Looking at the statistics later on from the game, Aston Villa was more hungry for goals and it was shown with the attempts on goal and shots on target. I was totally surprised at the outcome of this game.
Manchester United on the other hand, had a good game as they faced with Chelsea and won.

[EL MOHA]

Another home win for Aston Villa in the EPL, that is 14 consecutive home wins for Aston Villa in the Premier League, unbelievable feat. Aston Villa fans are currently living the dream, they are third in the Premier League and playing fantastic football, if they continue playing like this, then they could even finish in the top four.

As for Manchester City, that is 4 games without a win, 3 draws and one loss, and they definitely didn't play like champions tonight, Villa were by far the better team and they deserved to win. City have failed to win a game this season when Rodri was unavailable, it is clear that City cannot do without him, and i can imagine a scenario where Rodri gets injured, that is disaster for City, i really think they need to go into the market and buy a few players in January.

Unai Emery has done some excellent work at Aston Villa since arrival last year. Aston have now found there way back to the premier league top and not longer a mid table team. The players this season that we’re added have been the ones super heading this season. Players like Pau Torres have enjoyed a smooth start to continue. The Villa park had also become a fortress which seems  hard to beat Aston Villa. They dominated a team like Manchester city which shows they are not to be taken for granted.

As for Manchester city I will say they are just experiencing a post treble winning season fatigue and to be frank they need it. I don’t blame them that much, this season is truly going to be a bit rough for them because there players fitness will definitely be questioned. As for Rodri, I don’t think they need anymore players, the likes of Kovacic, Nunez and Kalvin Philips are his replacement but they haven’t settled down well and also the players are different.

I don't think anybody could have predicted that Ma City performance right. That was the worst City performance I've seen in a long time. They were all over the place. Against Tottenham I thought that was a one time thing which is normal for every team but now it got worse again Aston Villa.
I won't be too surprised if City has just lost because every team loses matches no matter how good you are, but the way they lost.
It's not everyday you see Man City lose a match without scoring a goal and playing worse than their opponents.

I guess Manchester City is just going through a rough patch and they'll be back stronger. We know that they get better as the season goes further and they might go back to their usual form. They're about 6 points behind league leaders Arsenal and when you look at it from a certain perspective, that's not a lot of points, the problem is that is how the point gap might begin to increase.
One thing is for sure, it's going to be an intersection battle ahead.

[Leviathan.007]

Maybe that's just a joke but the fans of Arsenals want to pay 30 million euros more for Declan Rice to Westham. So far during this season, Declan Rice had a perfect performance and he even scored the last goal for his team in the game against Luton to help Arsenal win the game Arsenal bought this player for 120 million euros from WestHam, and now the fans of Arsenal want to pay more for this player to WestHam in GoFundMe.

The necessary details and form about Arsenal is balance, what they need currently is accumulating points to stay top of the table and maintaining streak winnings in matches. Declan Rice might not play upto the expectations of the hype priced he got signed for but he has actually deliver his clubs in rough moments, times everyone thought it's over, there he comes and deliver them like Jesus Christ the savior. Mikel Arteta and his players have profound confidence in Declan Rice and he's very in incredible shape, there's absolutely no time for relenting efforts other than the players that are not in shape.

[Stable090]

I don't think anybody could have predicted that Ma City performance right. That was the worst City performance I've seen in a long time.

The Manchester City match today was just surprising to me. I wasn’t expecting Manchester City to lose the match, Manchester City really needed the match. As we can see, the city is now in the 5th position, which is not really a nice one. I was not thinking that Manchester City would be able to drop to the current position, which they are. Seriously, Pep Guardiola is having a lot to do. Arsenal, which is in the first position, is now ahead of Manchester City by 6 points, which is kind of a big gap. Arsenal is already giving Manchester City a big gap, which will be kind of difficult for them to cover up.

I guess Manchester City is just going through a rough patch and they'll be back stronger.

When will they be coming back? And I hope it won’t be late when they come back. If Arsenal is leading them with a reasonable amount of points, it might be difficult to cover up for Manchester City. We can’t compare last season with this season. Changes happen. That's why Pep Guardiola should try and fix Manchester City as soon as possible.

Aston Villa won despite the heavy pressure they face. Manchester City are not in form, with the absence of keyplayers and also hyped players that are doing zero contributions to the club pattern of game. Traveling to Villa Park to face the Lions, the Citizens thought  it would be a regular winning day for them but got spuned by the home team. Indeed Unai Emery is cooking something for the club and the board and the fans are happy to have him in the club. On the other hand, Pep Guardiola have something to say concerning their shocking defeats against Aston Villa.

[Jegileman]

McTominay with an excellent goal he  managed to save his team from a draw, Manchester united as an unstable team this season including Chelsea, today's win doesn't guarantee a come back so we should not hope let's just be happy for Manchester united, the shame is just too much so they have proven themselves once again, Manchester united had many chance to score goal but I don't know what really happened.

We don’t need to be surprised too much about the outcome of this match, I will just assume that the better team have won todays game and it is highly in their favour to have won the match today. Chelsea should go back and strategize again, they know that they are inconsistent just like Manchester United, seeing Manchester United win should be like a lesson to them to adjust in their next game.

What's really wrong with the city boys I don't seem to understand the issue with them, I thought city will definitely come with full force but no I predicted wrongly and am disappointed, let's no judge yet Aston might maintain the position for long.

Aston Villa has stunned everybody today after winning Manchester City in todays game. I didn’t follow up this match but with the first half stats I saw, it was evident that Aston Villa could win the match because of how they dominated the first half of the game more than Manchester City.

When Marcus Rashford was in poor form, coach Erik ten Hag put this player on the bench, making room for the attacking trio, including Alejandro Ganarcho, Rasmus Hojlund, and Antony. But Scott McTominay was the one who helped them win this match. He scored twice, helping Man Utd defeat away team Chelsea 2-1 in round 15. Scotland scored five goals for the first time in a Premier League season, although this term he only played 12 matches. The pressure is once again temporarily relieved for Erik ten Hag. Chelsea also missed many opportunities, such as Mudryk's shot hitting the post in the 36th minute or Armando Broja's header hitting the crossbar in injury time of the second half.

With this win, Man Utd returned to 6th place, 1 point ahead of Newcastle United. On the contrary, Chelsea stagnated in 10th place.

Yeah I heard this information yesterday that several main Manchester City players were absent and this can prove that just relying on Haaland in the attack line is not enough Manchester City still needs other supporting players, it's a shame they lost points even though they should have been able to draw. as I said before Arsenal definitely took advantage of this with 6 points ahead and Liverpool 4 points ahead. We don't know when Manchester City ended this bad result 4 consecutive matches without a win, in the next match Manchester City will fight Luton and it should be the right moment to end bad results I can't imagine if Manchester City fails to get 3 points.

Arsenal at the top of the standings and Liverpool in the 2nd place then Arsenal have to fight against Aston Villa obviously this is not an easy opponent for Arsenal, especially they will play away, on the other hand Liverpool are predicted to beat Crystal Palace so if Arsenal draw and Liverpool won, will Liverpool take over the standings? This will be a new record in the Premier League when 4 teams took over the standings in turn in 2 months lol.

I've never seen such an spectacular and remarkable performance from Manchester United, the way the players and supports echoed chants of victory, it was really out of tract for the Blues and their supporters. They chilled down and couldn't belive their very eyes the type of danger that have befallen them. Erik Ten Hag have been praised by the wonderful display tonight at Old Trafford and that's the exact way they want to see Manchester United perform, because that will elevate them in all round performance. McTominay should be crowned MOTM after netting a brace against Chelsea.

Gunners won with difficulty their game vs Luton Town and Manchester United made an important victory against Chelsea. They are 3 points far from Manchester City!!

Pep needs to rebuild the defensive lines as soon as possible. This is very disappointed result to see how the club was losing against aston villa. It was losing with narrow score but lose is lose. It's horrible to see that if manchester city has 6 points gap toward arsenal at this moment.
Liverpool is in the second place right now. This is a very bad result for manchester city. It's a set back. I meant if the current result is far different compared to the last season which mean that if if arsenal was in the trouble.

Manchester city losses its soul right now. Im wondering how long it will be staying at the bad performance like that? Arsenal becomes the most favorite candidate to win the EPL at this moment.
Manchester city was unable in helping the club to win the game. CIty needs to come back as soon as possible. It's horrible result for the fans.

[EFS]

What happened to City? They hit the rock bottom in the last 4 games. No win and only 3 points, and the worst thing is they play nothing like they used to.
I'm sure Pep will fix this soon but I'm not unhappy. Finally a clear path for Arsenal, they have to use this chance for good. It's up to them to finish this championship drought after all these years. There is no competition right now.
