Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Hyphen(-)]

How could Everton disrespect a club as big as Chelsea, humiliating this expensive squad 2-0 without reply. I can't help thinking that clubs that spend large budgets in the transfer window do not perform according to expectations, and are even very far from expectations. Meanwhile, Everton showed a better mentality, and they did not seem to be affected at all by the points deduction.

Everton is on form this season is on form and are surprising so many big teams with their outstanding performances both home and away. They have been consistent in their last three match after their lost against Manchester United.

The 10 points deduction for Everton looks like a motivation to them because they have been performing extremely well after the points deduction, they are now almost clear off relegation zone with 13 points, almost four points above the relegation zone team; they could have been in the mid table with 23 points if their points was not deducted, I know that they are not a relegation team, they will come back strongly.

After being humiliated by United, Everton got up and beat Newcastle and most recently Chelsea. Even though they had minimal possession of the ball with only 28% control, Sean Dyche squad was able to play effectively and make The Blues bend their knees to them.

The surprising thing is that, they defeated teams that many did not expect they will defeat. I am trusting the team’s effort, they will stay in the premier league and will do better next season.

Luton vs Manchester City.

As I said in the previous post, City will score at least 2 goals against Luton. It's just that I was too careless and didn't look for any additional information. as it turns out, Haaland was not included in Manchester City's squad for the match against Luton. plus, Pep didn't play his favorite pattern and several players weren't played as main starters. The match is as I predicted for City, but I don't take into account that Luton will be able to score a goal in this match. But, at least City have won their match again after not achieving maximum results in the previous 4 matches in the Premier League. Apart from that, this victory represents quite a sense of concern and joy for TheCitizen supporters.

Everton vs Chelsea.  

According to what I previously predicted if Everton was able to beat Chelsea in this match. Sean Dyche's squad again achieved full points, and increased the points gap from the team in the relegation zone. slowly but surely, Everton has won three matches in a row. On the other hand, it would be a shame if Chelsea had to swallow the bitter pill of losing to Everton. even though in terms of the quality of the players, Chelsea is above Everton. but as I said in the previous post, if Poche doesn't do something to change his squad, Chelsea will have difficulty winning the match after match they play. Even though statistically and technically Chelsea were far superior and dominated the match, the fact was that they didn't have a single big chance. Again, Poche has to work harder to find the right formula for his squad in the next matches before the January transfer window opens.

It was a game over for Chelsea today as Everton's Doucoure and Lewis Dobbin netted the goals that secured Everton a good win over Chelsea and 3 points ahead of their points. In just 20 minutes into the match, Cole Palmer had booked a yellow card while the rest of the team were not looking boosted with their Morales in the match. I expected some strong efforts from Chelsea but reverse was the case as Everton's win over them was another lose after their last match making it a two game losing streak for the Blues.

It looks like the game over is coming for Pochettino. For a while it seemed that things were looking up for Chelsea, but now after two defeats in a row they are tied for 11th-14th place with other (very weak) teams. I think that this is already the end even in terms of the fight for the Europa League or the Conference League. The teams ahead are too strong and the gap is already too big. I don't even know how Chelsea will plan the rest of the season - it looks like it's time for them to prepare for the next one  

[imamusma]

At this point Chelsea owners and fans would start to lose faith in their head coach. Losing to Everton today after just coming back from a loss to Manchester united is far too much to take. I think Chelsea are far behind in terms of form and it may take a while before they get back to form.

Also Everton has been fantastic this season and they have been good lately, defeating Chelsea without conceding is a great feet to attain and they deserved the victory today.

It is true and it is a fact that cannot be avoided, and Pochettino is the person most responsible for Chelsea bad results so far. Maybe he will have the same fate as Ten Hag, I mean he will most likely be fired if he continues to bring Chelsea to the brink of destruction. After being defeated by United, Pochettino squad was recently slaughtered by Everton, it is very natural that club officials and fans are very disappointed, especially if they see that their position in the standings is exactly the same as where they finished last season.

An update needs to be made, considering that giving full trust to Pochettino until the end of the season is riskier, at least Chelsea must be able to finish in the Europa League zone. Chelsea transition period was not well maintained, that was the beginning of their current downfall, and even the loan players who were released made a big contribution to their new club such as Lukaku and Ziyech. A wrong move by management, and they have to bear the consequences of that mistake.

As the defending champion, Manchester City will continue to try to get out of the bad results achieved in the last few matches in order to maintain the opportunity to regain first place. The match has entered the last 10 minutes, the score is still 1-2 in favor of Manchester City, it looks like the three points will belong to Manchester City in this match, this result is very good for them.

Manchester City needs these three points badly from Luton Town to get closer from Liverpool which is topping the list with 37 points. Manchester City, assuming they will win today's match, will be 4 points away from them which is still far from receiving in a single round. The bad results made Manchester City in a bad position, just like gunners which lost the first position.
In this match, Luton Town scored first then Manchester City was able to score two goals in three minutes. Extra time has started and hopefully they will not take a surprising goal.

The importance of securing three points against Luton Town for Manchester City is clear, because they cant stay with a far gap of the points with Liverpool at the top of the table, If they want to defend their tittle. The quick response with two goals in three minutes proves that City determine to turn the match in their favor after conceding the initial goal.

The scenario you've described emphasizes the pressure on top teams like Manchester City to consistently perform and maintain their position in the league. Every game equally matters, and a win in this game would be a crucial step toward staying competitive in the title race. The hope is undoubtedly for Manchester City to secure the win. The unpredictability of football makes every moment in extra time crucial. This positive result for Manchester City continues to navigate the challenges and intensity of the Premier League.

-snip-

Chelsea scored four goals each against Tottenham and Manchester City. After 4-1 draws against Tottenham and 4-4 draws against City, we thought Chelsea might be back on track. We will probably see a good performance from this team. But we were wrong. Chelsea's performances are still very erratic. Chelsea lost 2-0 against Everton today. The match was dominated by the Chelsea players but they could not score any goals. Chelsea players have 72% ball possession in this match. They managed to make 16 shots. Even then they were not able to score a single goal. We will not see Chelsea in the top 10 of the table this season.

Inconsistency in team performance is the main problem for the team coached by Pochettino so far. Chelsea have not been able to maintain their best form and have struggled to improve this season for this reason. So I don't think Pochettino's task looks easy throughout this season because in reality Chelsea are still too bad to be expected to be tough contenders for a place in the Champions League next season.

Today Manchester City and Tottenham seem to be both succeeding in stopping their bad trend. Manchester City, who were overwhelmed by Luton Town, ultimately managed to win this tough match. The creativity of Manchester City players in creating goal opportunities was not seen much because Luton Town defended very well, in fact Manchester City had to fight to win the match after trailing 1-0 in the first half. Tottenham are not finished yet, there is still a second half even though currently they closed the first half with a 2-0 win over Newcastle.

Yeah they will be starting to grow impatient. Chelsea had been playing good before this game but I think owners will still give a bit of more chances before sacking him eventually. I think Chelsea have a very good squad and its just chemistry within the team which is not right at the moment. Everton also have been in good form lately so I feel that it was a bit tough match for Chelsea despite the position of Everton on the table. Anyway I think Chelsea will turnaround this form from next match. Chelsea have Sheffield in next fixture and I think Chelsea will dominate them completely and should be able to post a win on their results sheet.

[Jossque]

Fulham showered West Ham with goals at home.I think most people didn't expect such a win from Fulham and I think it surprised the majority.I found it interesting that West Ham couldn't find a goal in this match when they were doing so well.The home team changed the course of the match with 3 goals in the first half and didn't even allow their opponent to get into the match.
Manchester City, on the other hand, won the match with 2 goals in the second half of the match, which closed the first half defeated, and increased their points to 33.Luton Town, who managed to take the lead with Adebayo at the end of the first half, could not withstand City's pressure more in the second half and scored 2 goals in a row and the match was completed with these goals.

Chelsea are really not doing anything to show that their performance is some how improving gradually, they play without any means of making opposition beg to have the ball, but in this case is just a 50/50 for both sides. The backline of Chelsea is very solid with Cucurella Disasi and Colwill on the mix, but I can't seem to understand why James have to always come on to make the defense line weak, he has completely lost form.
The Chelsea boss need to permanently drop the England right back for good because he's only making the team to be under pressure for no reason. Let's see how they'll play on the second half if the visitors would get a goal.

Chelsea are playing well no doubt, more credit should be given to Everton for holding it down till this point, they've tried as home team to show that they have a point to prove even though they are playing a big opponent, though Chelsea hasn't been been too impressive in the their outings, especially that loss against Manchester unitedi wasn't encouraging. Looking at how unpredictable this game can be, Everton might just see the back of the net this second half.

Everton was having a good day hosting the Blues and the home side really showed the visitors that they're of the same level as it stands, Chelsea aren't suppose to be classified as bigger opponent no matter the team they go head to head with. If watched the game against Manchester United you know that the both teams played like amateurs, it was suppose to be fun watching those two teams clash heads together but it wasn't that fun as it used to be.
The Blues who are suppose to get it done against Everton but the reverse was the case, I wonder the excuse Pochettino will give this time around, maybe he would say the team was lacking the captain's presence that's why they lost.
To me I don't see anything positive coming out from Chelsea because if they win a game today they'll lose up to 2-3 games before getting any win, too bad for Chelsea FC.

I'm not sure how Chelsea fans have consistently this Chelsea team maybe it's because they were able to put up a show against Liverpool and City this season but Chelsea has largely weak throughout the season. Those few wins here amd there won't cut it. 5 wins and 7 losses  for a team that spent millions of £ only to constantly churn disappointing results such as this.  I was a big advocate of the "Pochettino needs more time" campaign but after today and that midweek loss to Man Utd, I have to say that he has had enough of time — 19 games and still can use all the firepower his team has to produce results.

[swogerino]

It looks like also Tottenham is returning to winning ways and against Newcastle after losing some games in a row.I think this was to be expected of Newcastle who most probably is prioritizing the Champions League game on this upcoming last match day there as they need absolutely to win their game in order to have chances to progress further in the Champions League.They are playing against Milan while Tottenham is completely focused to get the three points from this game and this means that they are leading 2-0 and I don't expect the result to change much in this game because of Newcastle focus elsewhere.

[Jossque]

Everton have been on the rise in recent weeks.Everton got their 5th win in the last 7 weeks today against Chelsea.Chelsea struggled to find goals in this game despite playing better away from home.The first half of the game ended in a goalless draw and the second half was more lively.Everton took the lead with Doucoure's goal and Dobbin scored his team's 2nd goal in the 86th minute and scored 4 minutes later.
Totthenham have been struggling to win for the last 5 weeks and I can say that the points they have lost during these weeks have left them far behind in the championship race.Today they managed to lead 3-0 against Newcastle with a good game and as of the 65th minute of the match, we can say that they do not even let Newcastle play.They will most likely win this match.

[bitzizzix]

I look at the results of all of Newcastle's matches and when they are at home they play very scary and apart from always winning, they also always dominate throughout the match.
And when Newcastle were guests, they played mediocre and not as scary as when they were hosts.

And as I said, the match between Tottenham and Newcastle is still ongoing and the score is currently 3-0 for host Tottenham, and there is still approximately 20 minutes of normal time remaining in the match. And there is a possibility that Tottenham will score goals again, and I also see Richarlison playing very well.

When Everton played and won their match against Newcastle, their coordination and how they got victorious in that match made me ponder if Chelsea will be able to beat them today. I was not too surprised with the win today because Chelsea are a team that you can’t depend on. This week they’ll be playing well and the following week they will play the worst football again.

Taking a look at the table again made me realised that Everton are doing very great this season. The 10 points that was deducted from their points is the only reason they are still in the position they are now, if not they will be above Chelsea in the standings. Good play to Everton and they deserved today’s victory.

It is impossible for Newcastle not to focus on this match in order to prioritize the champions league which has conceded 3 goals now to Tottenham.
Newcastle didn't look less focused against Tottenham in my opinion.
Every point they get is very important in order to open up hope of returning to the Champions League next season if their chances of survival are slim.

In their current situation, it is impossible for them to win over Tottenham. However, the opportunity to reduce the score still exists.

[Ayers]

Well, the thing is right now Manchester City should not be happy about anything. They should be angry and determined to do better in their upcoming matches in the English Premier League. Because honestly, they have not performed well in the English Premier League in recent times. And if they do not improve their performance very quickly, they will fall off too much to recover. And remember they are the defending champions. So they will have to perform really well to retain the championship title of the English Premier League. Maybe that's why people are actually so much mad at them.

Manchester City have not improved very well, and they need to perform better in the Premier League because I didn't enjoy watching their match against Luton. They won the match, but they deserved to score more goals, and they won 2-1. If Manchester City played against Luton last season, I believe they would score more than 5 goals, because Manchester City were the best club in the Premier League last season. but they are not performing well these days and I don't think they will win the league trophy, because Liverpool are topping the league table and they won't lose any match for now, and it will be very difficult for Arsenal to top the league because they made mistakes against Aston Villa and they defeated them in the match. how am seeing Aston Villa performances these days they are in real great form battle with all this top clubs in the League.

The thing is, I have seen the coach of Manchester City change the tactics a little bit if I am not wrong. And probably that was not the right thing to do. Because you know that is definitely not working out to be good. Because in this new way, Manchester City honestly loses the control over the midfield area that they generally like to have.

 I think that is probably a big reason why Manchester City has not been able to do well in these matches. maybe they are experimenting. And this is just a sign of an experiment gone wrong. If that is true. I think they should stop experimenting like this and go back to the original plan.

The score is already 3-0, but even after the first half you could see that it was as if Newcastle were not trying to win, maybe they are just under pressure, but I also think they are not wasting energy before the Champions League match, that's all. Even looking at the stats tottenham are completely leading in shots and other stats

[Marykeller]

Chelsea is very unlucky today, just when I was thinking they are now getting better and will be able to perform well in their subsequent games but it turned out they are yet to be stable, they just keep drawing and loosing, watching today's game I could see that Chelsea isn't looking like they will be able to contend for the league title this season.
~

With the recent Chelsea performance, there is no way they will be aiming for the Premier League title this season because they are far from achieving it. What should be their concern at the moment, is how they should get back on their feet. Chelsea seems like they have lost their charm after drawing to Manchester City. If they continue like this, they shouldn't be surprised if they find their way to the relegation zone struggling to come up. Their performance is getting worse each day.

[Queentoshi]

Totthenham have been struggling to win for the last 5 weeks and I can say that the points they have lost during these weeks have left them far behind in the championship race.Today they managed to lead 3-0 against Newcastle with a good game and as of the 65th minute of the match, we can say that they do not even let Newcastle play.They will most likely win this match.

Tottenham's coach has been very stubborn and reluctant with changing how he plays since the injury problems of the team, and their series of losses, but it has finally paid off for the team against a very strong Newcastle who have been a bone for other big teams in the premier league, and the first team to defeat Arsenal this season. This big victory against Newcastle and the three points can be the restart of the form the team had at the start of the season that saw them undefeated in many games. As for Everton, another three points for them after also defeating Newcastle last week, and it takes them out of the bottom three where they certainly do not belong with how well they have played.

[Xxmodded]

Everton have been on the rise in recent weeks.Everton got their 5th win in the last 7 weeks today against Chelsea.Chelsea struggled to find goals in this game despite playing better away from home.The first half of the game ended in a goalless draw and the second half was more lively.Everton took the lead with Doucoure's goal and Dobbin scored his team's 2nd goal in the 86th minute and scored 4 minutes later.

Everton continue third winning matches in a row from Chelsea, its second time in a row Everton success winning on home match after beating Chelsea and last match success won against Newcastle United. Second half become moment for Everton made two goals trough Abdoulaye Doucoure and one other goal from Lewis Dobbin. Chelsea got second loss in a row after last match before losing from Manchester United and against Everton they can't recovery to winning performed.

Everton have very quit well performance after 10 points deduction due financial rule and success out from relegation zone, its not get 10 points deduction current standings of Everton will be on 10th position. Have good performance although with internal problem and many points deduction not make Everton give up but more motivate how to out from relegation zone, 9 additional points make Everton success raised to 17th standings and have 1 points left from above teams Nott Forest.
