Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Queentoshi]

Tottenham Hotspur still face strong team next match, Newcastle United is not easy for stopping bad trend for Tottenham Hotspur how to get three points.

Tottenham can win Newcastle but that will be a serious game because Newcastle just lost to Everton and will not want to drop another three points. So just like Newcastle, Tottenham will have to fight for the points because the two teams need it. Tottenham would have been able to maintain their winning and compete for the Premier League Title if they had not been affected by injuries, because although they are not winning games as they were, they still are not playing very bad. Tottenham have to struggle to hold this their position to the end of the year, so they can return for next year stronger when some players would have recovered.

[Ayers]

Spurs are the only team that have now dropped more points from winning positions than any other team in Europe's top seven divisions so far this season (16).
They are playing good attractive football but the number of injuries their players are having, it just doesn't translate well. They don't have an out and out Center Back that is fit to play. Could have been contesting for top 3 but are now hard stuck at 5th.

Tottenham are in dire straits right now. The team's performance at the start of the season surprised everyone. The team was at the top of the table for a long time. But they did not win in the last 5 matches. Lost 4 out of 5 matches and drew 1 match. Important players of the team cannot be in the squad due to injuries. This is why the team lost the truck. And now Tottenham's performance is very bad. The team may not even be in the top four of the table. In a few days, we will see the Tottenham team in the sixth or seventh place of the table.

Tottenham Hotspur have not really been in their best state right now and for losing the last game against West Ham United with a two goals to one (1:2) when it was speculated that Tottenham should have had the upper hand in the match the situation where many of the club fans have been in a sad mood due to the unexpected loses that have hit the club in the last 5 matches back which is somewhat unacceptable result to continue with for the club.
Abd at the moment those poor performances have made the spur to drop in point significantly which is something that was not expected from the way the club started the season with high spirits and motivation and winning most of their games.

Tottenham, losing against West Ham was definitely very unexpected for me and I think a lot of people are also going to agree with me on this one. Tottenham has not been able to win a single match in the last fight. And four out of them are losses as well. It is really unbelievable how they have dropped from the first place of the table to where they are right now. The chance of them winning the English Premier League title seems to be reduced after every match they play. And I will agree that if they do not improve their performance, they are not going to finish in the top four, let alone win the English premier league.

[Mr.suevie]

Apart from Everton's revival, Newcastle's team this season is really down compared to last season and they are also inconsistent, I doubt that Newcastle this season will be able to enter the top 4 again like last season.

Yeah Newcastle is really down compare to there performance early this season, I don't know why all of a sudden Newcastle United just lose form because I remember vividly how they were able to win some big teams like Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and even draw with PSG, honestly during the beginning of this season I was thinking Newcastle United will come out with the third position on the premier league but it was quite obvious now that is no longer possible because they are currently occupying the seventh position and possibility of making there way straight to the third position is not possible,  however they still have a strong match ahead of them but I don't think they will be able to win Tottenham Hotspur because Tottenham has peak form so the match is gonna be tough on the both teams.

How has Tottenham picked form? Tottenham for me having played very poor since Chelsea won them, well if recent they are not all that bad but we still can't compare Tottenham performance than that of Newcastle, I mean this Newcastle team has really proven that they are among the elite teams in the league and I believe that Newcastle can definitely win Tottenham in their clash.

[hahay]

Tottenham!
Managed to pull off a dramatic 3-3 draw against the defending Champions Manchester City away from home and then 4 days later lose to West Ham United at home. In the last 5 games, they have lost 4 and drawn one. Tottenham has lost 14 points from winning positions in a game since November 6. This is a fast sinking ship that needs a quick solution before it's too late.

Yes, it's a terrible fall from the very top. Unfortunately, in the next round Tottenham plays with Newcastle and again one of the two good clubs (in the sense that I sympathize with them) experiencing problems will again lose points. And I wouldn’t even be surprised if they play a draw and thus it will be a negative result for both clubs. But oddly enough, this whole trio of losers (Tottenham, Newcastle, United) is not so far from the tournament favorite City.

I think at this moment it's not only Tottenham who are in decline, because teams like Manchester City are also in decline at this moment after losing by Aston Villa . So yes, I think their matches will also become more difficult to predict, either when they play against top teams or just play against mediocre teams, because any result is still very possible for them at this moment. At least, about Tottenham success in holding Manchester City to a draw is also proof, that a highly favored team like Manchester City can also fail at this moment . But yes, at this moment it looks like Arsenal and Liverpool have better results than their rival teams in the title race, it will be interesting of course because they take turns experiencing good and bad results.

[Asiska02]

I see that Everton this season is much better than last season, and because the points deduction penalty they received at the start of the season slightly disrupted the team's performance, but now they are slowly getting up and out of the relegation zone, Everton deserves to get this victory because of the performance of the players. They're pretty good and they're pretty effective.

Apart from Everton's revival, Newcastle's team this season is really down compared to last season and they are also inconsistent, I doubt that Newcastle this season will be able to enter the top 4 again like last season.

The point reduction on Everton has really affected their position in the league this season but despite that they were still able to overcome that and are doing perfectly well. If points can be deducted from a team and they are still in a position above the relegation zone, then you can say that there would be a master class team that season. I loved the way they played against Newcastle United yesterday to grab all three points, they needed that point to maintain and improve their position in the league. There next match will be against Chelsea, which in my prediction is going to be a very though one for them to play and grab three points because you can’t tell Chelsea’s form since they are always inconsistent.

[imamusma]

It's important to remember that we may like to diss United as much as we want but they are tied to fourth place, and after a horrible start to the season they now have 4 wins in the last 5 games. That means they are on the verge of UCL spot, just like last year. If they do end up with top four spots after such a terrible start, I think they do have a much better chance next season when they do address the issues at the club. I think the biggest issue is that they do not look for the defenders, the reality is that they need to be able to defend better. That has been getting better recently and we are seeing the fruits of that.

Onana is still by far the biggest issue though, he should be replaced by someone else, just eat the loss and accept that you spent a lot of money on a goalkeeper that is terrible, spend some more money and then get another goalkeeper and fire Onana if you have to, or sell him for cheap and just get rid of him, rest of the squad looks fine.

As long as Ten Hag is still the manager of Manchester United, Onana will always be the first choice in the goalkeeper position. Sometimes Onana appears impressive and not infrequently he performs very badly, but as I meant at the beginning, Ten Hag really wants a goalkeeper who has the advantage in collecting the ball from below. In Ten Hag view, this is really needed in the strategy he implements. Even though on the other hand, many people criticized the appearance of the goalkeeper from Cameroon, Ten Hag didn't care about that.

The opportunity for United to finish in the top four of the standings is quite open, there are still many matches ahead which means many things will happen. However, the picture of the situation going forward is that the competition is becoming increasingly fierce, and United must at least use the January transfer window as wisely as possible, to patch up their defense line which is considered fragile this season.

[Oluwa-btc]

I don't know what Harry Maguire has experienced this season until he finally won the EPL best player award for November. This was a turning point for Harry Maguire, who last season was ridiculed, criticized, and even had his career threatened at Manchester United because of a serious blunder he made.

However, he never gave up and was able to prove to his coach and colleagues that he still deserved to be in the Red Devils squad. He has also had competition to get starters and he has also managed to get rid of Raphael Varane in terms of defense. Well, great job Harry Maguire and I hope he can be more stable in helping Manchester United's defense this season.

All players do improve and decreased in performance this season, they all have their time because it do actually varies. When Harry Maguire told Erik Ten Hag that he will fight for his shirt in Manchester United matches, I thought it's mere words until I figure out that he's not lying, rather he's sticking to the sincerity within himself. Look at him now, he has won POTM award for November, such a good start for the Englishman this season. He rectify and amends his weaknesses and he's now primarily a starter in Manchester United line-up under Erik Ten Hag.

I have also heard Harry Maguire's statement and doubted whether he would be able to return to his best performance. But it seems like we are shocked by the mentality he has until now and he has proven to his fans that he still deserves to wear this uniform. Even being removed from his captaincy didn't make Harry Maguire want to leave Manchester United and preferred to focus completely on fixing existing mistakes.



Anyway, the month of November belongs to Manchester United because it was not only Harry Maguire who received this award, but Erik ten Hag and Alejandro Garnacho also received the same award in November for different categories.

Props to them all, indeed they've done well, this should be booster for the other players in Manchester United that they can achieve whatever they want this season, there should be no limitations. It should also give them energy.
It hasn't been easy fight for Harry Maguire, he's changing it all now and getting solid. All he needs now is that consistentcy to make he continues in this form.

Nobody came close to challenging the goal scored by Garnacho, that goal should and will be remembered for years. Legendary Wayne Rooney and idol Cristiano Ronaldo has both scored both. Well, we want to see more of that.
For Erik Ten Hag! After the talks of being sacked and shit, are they all silent now? Erik Ten Hag remains the right manager for Manchester United.

[MAAManda]

The game between Arsenal and Aston Villa tomorrow for me will be the toughest game as the two are looking for the three points. Aston villa would hope against hope that Liverpool lost their game to Crystal Palace for them to move to second place if they manage to defeat Arsenal. Naturally, I'd say they don't stand a chance at winning the Gunners but with how they pressurized Man City last time, pushing the citizens into their own half and forcing them to defend instead of attack, i feel they can do same to Arsenal who narrowly escaped losing three points to a small club like Luton Town.

Arsenal has a better defense, the midfielders are doing okay and their attackers don't take chances in front of goal but if there's a problem the Gunners may be having is their keeper, David Raya. The Spaniard sometimes allows himself to be too zealous and as such makes mistakes the opponents usually take to punish them but I'm hoping he'd curb those excesses tomorrow when they meet.

The main thing that's of concern in this match is Aston Villa who are playing at home, because in their last match when they faced Manchester City, they were able to beat Manchester City when they played at home.

The possibility remains that they can beat Arsenal and add to their streak of positive results, then if we look at the bookies, we'll find that Arsenal have @ 2.11 odds on the 1X2 bet, which means the bookies are favorites for Arsenal to win the match.

The 2 indicators I mentioned above make me personally confused about predicting who will win, but my hope remains with Arsenal, so that they can become stronger at the top of the EPL standings.

[rahmad2nd]

Apart from Everton's revival, Newcastle's team this season is really down compared to last season and they are also inconsistent, I doubt that Newcastle this season will be able to enter the top 4 again like last season.

Yeah Newcastle is really down compare to there performance early this season, I don't know why all of a sudden Newcastle United just lose form because I remember vividly how they were able to win some big teams like Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and even draw with PSG, honestly during the beginning of this season I was thinking Newcastle United will come out with the third position on the premier league but it was quite obvious now that is no longer possible because they are currently occupying the seventh position and possibility of making there way straight to the third position is not possible,  however they still have a strong match ahead of them but I don't think they will be able to win Tottenham Hotspur because Tottenham has peak form so the match is gonna be tough on the both teams.

In fact, we cannot confirm the final result of Newcastle's match when they visit Spurs. As for Newcastle's defeat against Eveton in last night's match, this is a normal thing and can happen to any strong team. for example, Newcastle was able to overthrow PSG at St James't Park. draw at PSG headquarters. However, when they visited Goodison Park, Newcastle looked like a team that had lost its enthusiasm and even collapsed with a fairly big score without reply. which means, in football going ups and downs can happen to any team.

Well, this is the unique thing about football, and we don't know the exact result. if not, then betting would no longer exist and a competition would not have the essence and excitement for us to watch or even predict.
Currently, Eddie Howe's squad is ranked 7th in the Premier League standings, below Manchester United. can Newcastle finish in the top four of the standings, yeah, they have a chance of that. However, Eddie Howe's squad had to pay for it with hard work. the rest, let time tell.

BTW, to be honest, I don't like the style and system that Eddie Howe applies. Plus, the Newcastle camp is being hit by a storm of injuries. It will be a problem for them to get through the match, including the away match to Everton's headquarters. After that, another difficult match came to Spurs headquarters. plus, host Milan in the group phase to determine how they continue. At least, finishing in third place could be their target to get a Europa League ticket. Talking about the match against Spurs, let's see how the final result of the match is. although I agree, Spurs have a higher probability of winning the match in tomorrow's meeting. but, once I said it. Let's just wait, and we can even review it again tomorrow regarding the starting eleven and the stakes.

[Winterfrost]

No one is talking about the efforts Mikel Arteta has put in the Arsenal team for the past three seasons. He has gone to the extreme to develop the boys and push them to their limit. I believe i am not the only one who feels his way but he deserves a league title in his career as a manager in Arsenal. Read what Jurien Timber says about him

Jurrien Timber on Arteta: “I remember talking about it with Declan [Rice] when we started the season at the same time. We were inspired by the way Mikel looks at football & also how he taught everything so quick.”

“I don’t like to compare, but for me, he’s a great trainer. For me, from when I was there the first day, he started to teach me things & explain things to me really quick. I don’t know if that’s different from other trainers, but it’s something he’s really good at.

[un_rank]

Arsenal and Manchester City swap their most recent opponents for their next match.

Like every other team that has visited Kenilworth road, Arsenal struggled and were pegged back multiple times by a very spirited Luton team. It took them an inspirational strike from Declan Rice in the dying minutes to take all three points. City visit Luton on Sunday and will be expecting the same atmosphere and energy from the players, and they are on the back of a dip in form. How will they fare?

Arsenal go to Villa park, a ground where they have not lost since February and just recently outplayed and defeated the reigning champions. Ironically, they last lost to Arsenal and host them on Saturday. Arsenal is flying high and will want to squeeze out a victory again in a difficult fixture to show that they really mean business this season.

It is very reasonable that most people predict this match will end in a draw, but what happens on the field is very different from predictions outside the match. Choosing a draw when placing a bet on this match is very logical considering the condition of the two teams, the additional goal scored by McTiminay in the second half made all those who placed bets on a draw have to bite their fingers.
The positive results that Manchester United have just achieved can be a motivation for the next match. Manchester United also needs to maintain its performance ahead of the final match of the UCL group stage against Bayern Munich.

and even more ridiculously I was also tempted to try betting a little money to try my luck when the score was 2-1 right after McTominay scored I placed a draw bet.
very ridiculous but very interesting because Chelsea almost actually had a chance to hold a draw but unfortunately they could not focus because the ball shots were always off target and yeah Man United win this time I admit was very good but the problem is today Man United will appear against Bournemouth who have we can predict who the winner will be and if Man United wins again there will definitely be many people praising this team and it seems like it will be very easy for MU to beat Bournemouth because this team is in a bad condition.

[Weawant]

It's really interesting how the errors and the poor performance of Manchester united is making rounds on every platforms where football is been discussed and yet they were able to bag several awards for the month of November, how it turned out they had the coach of the month and a few players with some awards of the month aswell.

This has awaken my curiosity as to what is the yardstick for judgment for these awards, because I need to be explained to so I could understand and accept the fact that they did earned the award, I personally agree with the award of the goal of the month but still in doubt with the rest, nevertheless it's obvious my opinion changes nothing but then I will really appreciate some explanations to help my understanding and clear my bias and aswell help my judgement probably in subsequent times.

Let's just wait, and we can even review it again tomorrow regarding the starting eleven and the stakes.

At the moment, it looks like Edie Howe wants to prove that they can compete with some big clubs and in several competitions at once but Howe's tendency to shorten players is a little difficult to understand because he seems to continue to press several players without doing much rotation.
Indeed, this is a form of self-control and proof but until now with the situation that occurs it will make it a little more difficult for the players to get in shape because they continue to be forced to play consistently with a busy schedule that makes them work extra because they are too shortened.

The defeat in this match is really a little bit difficult for me to accept because in the end it's just not what it should be.

[kawetsriyanto]

It's Scott McTominay again.
How on earth is Scott McTominay, Manchester United's top scorer in all matches, yet he is a defensive midfielder? Is he granted a free role, kind of play? Getting inspiration from Jude bellingham?
Most importantly, where on earth are all the other Manchester United's attacking players?

Yep. Again Scott McTominay scored goals, he became the hero for Man United in the match against Chelsea. I'm also a bit surprised with him, he is quite productive as a defensive midfielder. He scored 2 goals yesterday when no Man United attackers could score a single goal. I don't know where he got an inspiration. But I think he just tried to play more offensive because he knows no attackers to have a high chance for scoring  goals at the moment.

Well, it seems Ten hag won't feel worried again when Casemiro can't play. Duo Scott McTominay-Sofyan Amrabat look quite strong to play in the midfield line of Man United. Anyway, there is nothing wrong if Scott McTominay can be a productive midfielder, it is okay as long as he can play well to defend Man United.

[Marykeller]

Tottenham!
Managed to pull off a dramatic 3-3 draw against the defending Champions Manchester City away from home and then 4 days later lose to West Ham United at home. In the last 5 games, they have lost 4 and drawn one. Tottenham has lost 14 points from winning positions in a game since November 6. This is a fast sinking ship that needs a quick solution before it's too late.

Tottenham team has sunk already, have you notice how badly they have lost to their opponent after first scoring against their opponent in every match. They will be the first to score before the end of the second half they will begin to flop to concede goals. All of their lost match has ended in 1-2 at their lost.

Apart from Everton's revival, Newcastle's team this season is really down compared to last season and they are also inconsistent, I doubt that Newcastle this season will be able to enter the top 4 again like last season.

Not only will Newcastle be able not to enter the top 4 of the premier league table this season, Manchester United who is not in their good performance will do the same not making it to the top 4 of the premier league table with their poor performance.

Newcastle and Manchester United are having a terrible start of the season that could cause them to lose their previously occupied top position

[Altryist]

BTW, to be honest, I don't like the style and system that Eddie Howe applies. Plus, the Newcastle camp is being hit by a storm of injuries. It will be a problem for them to get through the match, including the away match to Everton's headquarters. After that, another difficult match came to Spurs headquarters. plus, host Milan in the group phase to determine how they continue.

Let's just wait, and we can even review it again tomorrow regarding the starting eleven and the stakes.

You are correct, Newcastle has a lot of injuries, 12 players were injured before the match with Everton, that’s a lot. I'll tell you that I'm not very surprised by this, given the strategy Howe uses, the players are simply not able to withstand such tension. But Newcastle’s defeat in this match, even despite all the injuries, was unexpected, they cannot achieve satisfactory results in the Premier League.

Tottenham's decline is not easy to explain, they ruined all the results they achieved in almost half a season, five terrible rounds and everything changed for them, but by the way, their opponents were very strong, perhaps except for West Ham, but they also lost points in this match.

[AprilioMP]

BTW, to be honest, I don't like the style and system that Eddie Howe applies. Plus, the Newcastle camp is being hit by a storm of injuries. It will be a problem for them to get through the match, including the away match to Everton's headquarters.

Eddie Howe's performance was good, although not as good as last season, when he finished in 4th position and had the right to appear in the UEFA Champions League for history.
Several obstacles that occurred made Eddie Howe considered not to be working well despite Newcastle's current performance. The only obstacle in my opinion is related to spending on players when club owners are known for having a lot of money.

Facing Newcastle's busy schedule of matches on the league calendar, Eddie Howe should recruit several players who are known to be able to have a positive influence on the team.
When several important players were injured, Eddie Howe had another reliable alternative to minimize the condition.
For me, for the opportunity to improve to get back into the top four competition, Eddie Howe must focus on upcoming player transfers.

[Mayor of ogba]

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 away from Manchester City!!

I'm happy for Erik Ten Hag and Manchester United players in their important win against Chelsea last night. This win Manchester United had over Chelsea will help boost the confidence of Manchester United players and they can pick a form of winning their matches. Manchester City is missing the absence of Kevin De Bruyne in their midfield, which is causing Manchester City to struggle to win their matches.

Yeah of a truth Manchester united were in a very good performance yesterday like I enjoyed the game, so happy for Manchester united at least for winning one of the big names in England is really an achievement for the club and they've shown that they can still pick form and win matches despite their initial flop, I think by this win of Manchester united, their gap to being in the top four isn't that much again. Scott McTominay brace saw the united team through at the old Trafford, just that their inconsistency is really what is affecting United because they will win a match and lose their next match just like that, had it been they win consecutively then they would have been in the top four spot by now.

Manchester United beat Chelsea in their last match. Manchester United started the season very badly but now they look like a good performing team. With three wins out of the last four matches in the English Premier League, they have managed to climb well up the points table. Manchester United is now the sixth team in the points table and their number of points is 27. If Manchester United is more serious in the upcoming matches and if they perform well in the upcoming matches then they will be able to take their position higher.  Point table number four and number 5 team with Manchester United's point difference is only 3, so if they can perform well in the end, then Manchester United must be able to be in the top 5 of the point table.

Manchester United had a very bad start last season in the Premier League but they ended up finishing 3rd in the Premier League table. Is like Manchester United wants to take the same step they did last season, Manchester United is looking like a top-four contender in the Premier League this season. Erik Ten Hag should do something about Onana before he causes Manchester United more harm.

Onana made some mistakes in the beginning for Manchester United, so I thought he was a bit nervous coming from a different league to a new one, but he has consistently underperformed for Manchester United. One of the most trusted places in a club is the goalkeeper. If that goalkeeper's performance is so poor, no matter how well a team does in the defensive midfield or attacking line, it's never possible to get full points from a team. Manchester United must think about their goalkeeper and whether they will rely on their new goalkeeper or think about an alternative they have to do now because if they can perform well from now on they will be in a good position at the end of the season.

Onana has been a terrible goalkeeper since arriving from Inter Milan to Manchester United. In Manchester United's match against Chelsea, Cole Palmer scored Onana with a weak shot, and Onana failed to stop the ball from entering the goalpost. Erik Ten Hag should look for a backup goalkeeper when the January transfer window opens.

[Sakanwa]

The impact of the points deduction is unlikely to change Everton's mentality to immediately escape the relegation zone and a 3-0 win without reply against Newcastle at home is a very impressive result. I didn't expect Everton to do this and send Newcastle home without taking a single point. Even though it is clear that Newcastle will be targeted to win quite easily in this match and they also really control the course of the match. But every opportunity that Everton had was utilized well and converted into many goals.

McNeil, Doucoure and Beto were the goal scorers in this match and Sean Dhyce is certainly very happy with the performance of his players. Once again, Newcastle's inconsistency was questioned in this match and they will be pushed even further into the middle of the table if they continue like this. Anyway, congratulations to Everton for this win and they should continue their winning trend in the upcoming matches.

With all the form Newcastle has had this season, they have played against many teams much stronger than Everton and have won them, but it is only Everton that Newcastle will not be able to defeat. If someone were to tell me that Everton will lose to Newcastle, I would not believe them because Newcastle is playing so well that you can even think that they will beat any team. Imagine Everton defeating Newcastle 3-0; that is too much for Newcastle.

And while I am aware that Everton is just as good as Newcastle this season, Newcastle is currently ranked seventh in the Premier League, I have been wondering why it is that sometimes, teams in good shape play in a different way. I had assumed that Newcastle was planning to be in a strong position to qualify for the Champions League, but after their performance yesterday, I have come to doubt that they will be able to do so.

This is the reason people say England is the toughest and hardest league in the world,it is results like this that make us conclude about that.Newcastle is a very good team especially when they see big teams,they try everything possible to bully them and win them because they are always very phisical while playing.Everton on the other hand knows that they are a very strong side and are always very physical,so they decided to play thesame way with them,but Newcastle were unable to withstand the pressure brought by Everton and the result ended up being in favour of Everton.
Newcastle to me might not be able to reach the height they reached last season,reason being that most teams in England have understood their pattern and their method of play,and have deviced a way of playing them.
