Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[borovichok]

That coach is  short sighed in my own analogy, he has so much faith in that Jackson guy and such unnecessary confidence has blinded him to the fact that Jackson slow down attack  unnecessarily, sterling didn't perform optimally today  quite alright, but Jackson is very weak to be played alone upfront. The coach has his reasons though, but for me, its not paying off. I can't wait for Nkunku to play upfront with Broja supporting him, the result will be tremendous because both has the power and Nkunku has a good finishing capacity. It will bring a big  boost to their attack.

Mauricio Pochettino will ensure his side sign promising players in January transfer window, good display from the blues and they will aim to achieving more good points. Chelsea managed to win Sheffield United who's clearly not in good shape this season. Watching the game, I could spot out Chelsea weakness and this absolutely disturbing and ruining their chances of goal scoring. Jackson doesn't contribute anything to the Blues frontline but he still manage to scout out good chances of winning and prepare them for upcoming matches.

The match between Luton Town versus Bournemouth was postponed, due to captain Tom Lockyer collapsing after 59 minutes of the match. So far there is no certainty regarding the player situation, there is only news that the club will continue to monitor his developments. On the other hand, there is no certainty when this match will continue, we will look at the schedule again.

I'm even surprised myself because after when Manchester City scored that second goal, i was actually thinking it was game over, as I thought Manchester City will go ahead to score more goals, however the game Crystal palace were playing anyone could easily suspect that they might come back because they were playing a counter attack pattern right from first half. But making this game 2-2 was really commendable, crystal palace defended and made good effort to fight back till the end of the game, that's why football is one beautiful game, because it's full of surprises.

I'm not surprised at all, after their second goal, they slowed down the pressure which  gave crystal palace the opportunity to maximize their counter attacking mode of play. I saw that draw coming from the time crystal palace scored the first goal, like was expecting the second one. Haaland was greatly missed in this match. Alvarez failed to be a good pair to Foden. I would've even preferred Foden played front while Alvarez supported from behind him. Foden has better finishing ability from any angle then Alvarez. Manchester city has maintained their 4th position, their next  match determines if they drop to 5th if they fail to win. Kudos to crystal Palace, their hard work  payed off. They really did well today.

[Odohu]

Truthfully city have doubled their lead, obviously this will reduce the seemingly pressure Crystal palace have enjoyed before, Manchester city will now go ahead in demystifying Crystal palace and reduce their pressure entirely, because at this point Manchester city are even likely to score more goals because that's their trademark whenever they get to this point sometimes in a game.

Manchester City may not even see Crystal Palace as a threat today because other things being equal, City is supposed to take the 3 points without much stress. Since it is football, you have to physically work for any point hence, Manchester will deploy all their tactics to secure the win to close in on the major contender, Arsenal. At the moment, the match is still very dicey because one more goal from Crystal Palace will make the match end in a 2-2 draw that will see City still lagging behind the Guners.

Manchester City also failed to get 3 points against Crystal Palace. City drew the match 2-2. This result was unexpected for me. Crystal Palace is a relatively weak team. It was not expected that Manchester City would drop points against this team. Manchester City completely dominated today's match. Even then they can't win. City's players had 75% of the ball possession, as well as attacking a lot. However, Manchester City cannot keep their defense strong in today's match.

Just what I suspected and raised the alarm. The normal Mancity side would have scored more goals instead of conceding and equalizer from Crystal Palace. Should we say fate has destined Arsenal to win the league? Nobody know for a certainty but it is obvious something us fundamentally wrong with the City team this season.

There is a hypothesis that their anytime their coach Pep Guardiola wants to leave a team, the team will start giving funny results just like City is doing now. Even though we don't have enough data to prove this, Barcelona is a good example. He has paid his dues at Manchester City, helping them to win the champions league after many years of failure.

Crystal palace managed to score 2 goals despite not attacking much. Crystal palace players made a total of 5 shots in today's match. Crystal palace is very lucky. They managed to share the points with City in away matches.

A major problem that Manchester City is suffering this season is the lack of defensive coherence between their defensive players and it often results in them conceding goals. Manchester City dropping points in this game goes the way of people who do not expect Manchester City to be able to keep their victory over the premier league again this season, they are barely hanging on to the top four, and if do not get their act right may be pushed even further down the premier league table.

My heart goes out to Luton Captain Tom Lockyer who collapsed during the game and forced the game to an emergency stop, I hope he recovers fully.

The equalizer was well deserved, everyone hoped for the best and they witnessed everything that happen. The visitors will be so happy to record draw points with City today, was not an easy game for them but they did everything to leveled points with Manchester City. Pep Guardiola is frustrated by the dissapointing results his team recorded against the eagles at Etihad Stadium. I've said this time without number, Manchester City doesn't sit in any prominent position to win Crystal Palace because they already messed up their golden opportunities of winning the match.

The match between Luton Town versus Bournemouth was postponed, due to captain Tom Lockyer collapsing after 30 minutes of the match. So far there is no certainty regarding the player situation, there is only news that the club will continue to monitor his developments. On the other hand, there is no certainty when this match will continue, we will look at the schedule again.

The game was still going on until the 59th minute after Dominic Solanke scored for Bournemouth, while you say that Luton's captain collapsed after 30 minutes of play, that sounds like nonsense.

Can anyone explain this situation properly? because I only realized it after my betting slip for this match was not completed. I don't mean to be disrespectful, but I'm wondering, what will happen to my bet slip? has anyone experienced this situation?

Even though Chelsea wasted many opportunities in the end they were able to win. In this match, Chelsea appeared dominant to beat Sheffield United with a convincing score of 2-0. This is good for Chelsea because they are approaching this match with a bad trend after only winning once in the last five matches, including losing the last two matches.

In this match, Chelsea also attacked from the start but the two teams were evenly matched with no goals throughout the first half. It was during the second half that Chelsea were able to lock in the points after goals from Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson, which determined victory in this match. It's true, Chelsea wasted too many opportunities even though they had completely controlled the course of this match.

When a team appears dominant in controlling the match and building attacks, then it is appropriate for them to win the match. Chelsea created a lot of chances in this match and I think all of Pochettino's plans went smoothly, so of course I feel Chelsea deserved the 3 points.

Manchester City's failure to win the match against Crystal Palace was very surprising. Crystal Palace did almost nothing but create a good first goal, but their second goal of the day in injury time was lucky. Phil Foden made a mistake he didn't want to make, but it happened at a time when Manchester City wanted to end the match with a win. The referee without hesitation gave a penalty to Crystal Palace and saved them from defeat.

Newcastle are back in form today I'm as much as they didn't play well in the first half the compensated that by going all out in the second half. Manchester city continue there winning ways today and now they have shifted the pressure to Arsenal and Liverpool.
I think Arsenal has a good chance to top the English premier league going into the Xmas period and probably into the new year.

Newcastle United are very quiet about their doings; while facing european disqualification; the group are quietly winning and getting their points in the premier league and slowly climbing up the league table. They are now 5 points off the champions league places.

While Manchester city continue to strruggle in the league and Europe; Chelsea get a win at home while the Luton game was abandoned. Hopefully Luton captain Tom recovers from the tragic collapse.

Tomorrow, Liverpool Hosts the fallen and badly coach Red Devils while Arsenal face high flying brighton side. Who will end the weekend as league leaders between Liverpool and Arsenal ?

I think the problem here is just Manchester city finding it difficult to actually secure a good winning form, I mean the combination by pep guadiola today didn't work out at all, sometimes with all this struggles it make me miss Kevin the more, I mean the man is just our of this world a midfield who knows what to do at every instant and when it comes to scoring the goals, you can definitely count on him and am quite sure if Kevin de byrune was around most of the unexpected losses and draw would have been a totally different result.

Yeah the match postponed at the 65th minute, right after tom lockyer collapsed.

You have to check the sportsbook terms/rules on that website, usually If the game is postponed for more than 24 hours, bets will be voided, the stake will be returned.
Also the bets which were settled on a game before the game was interrupted will remain settled (this terms might be not the same on all bookmakers).

A huge advantage that Manchester City failed to utilize. It was a 3 points in the bag sort of game and I wouldn’t say this was due to injury or Manchester City not having enough first team players on the pitch because with the squad they had on that pitch, it was just enough to undo crystal Palace. Manchester City was dominant all game round, had some good performance and quickly ran back to recover loosed balls but, only a few mistakes in the game which proved costly. The penalty offense from Foden was born out of the confusion and tension that surround the ball in that moment but, his legs was way too out and Olise made a quick work of it.

Crystal palace have always in the past be a Problem to Manchester city although city usually coughs out win but this particular one seems impossible. I will say the lack of quality back up on the substitute bench this season has actually affected Manchester city. An injury to their Talisman DeBruyne and goal Machine Halaand would affect them seriously because they do not have the caliber of players that could easily replace them.

This Pep’s first season struggling in the league after his first poor season when he arrived. I will say it is deserved even if doesn’t wins it because they also need to take a break after the scintillating season they had last season. I just hope the fans could beat with them and know that This bad form are actually part of the game.

My prayers are with Tom  Lockyer and I wish him a speedy recovery. I just pray nothing happens to him. Let's wait and see if the club will release the status of his condition tomorrow or next.

Manchester City have drawn the match against Crystal Palace who are currently in a very poor position in the Premier League. Where every team plays well enough to win the match at their own ground and they win the match at their home ground. But Manchester City shared the points with a 2-2 draw at Crystal Palace today. But in today's match everyone guessed that Manchester City has a chance to win by a huge margin but unfortunately they didn't win the match. Crystal Palace played superbly at Manchester City ground today which saw them beat a strong team like Manchester City their attack was outstanding today. Although Manchester City went to the first half of the game and had a chance to win, but after paying a goal in the 76th minute, the game was filled with more attacks.
When Crystal Palace equalized with another goal in the 90+5 minutes, the match became a draw and the points were shared between the two teams. Today's match was truly remarkable.

It feels like Manchester City's 2-2 result at the Etihad Stadium slightly missed many predictions. Before the match started, many bet that Manchester City would win the match with a score of more than 2 because of the Etihad Stadium and their obsession with catching up on the points difference with Arsenal and Liverpool.
Manchester City's position is increasingly under pressure because the point difference with Liverpool has become 3 and this difference is likely to increase if Liverpool win. Likewise the difference with Arsenal.

I don't want to comment much on Manchester City's draw because Manchester City did not deserve this result, where the draw in the final minutes of the match was the fault of one of the players who was considered the best defender recruited by Pep Guardiola and whose name was almost the same as the coach.

I think Fulham will not be able to score in this match, I think Newcastle will have an easy win. There is no reason why they shouldn't score 2-3 goals and win the match.
I hope will watch an enjoyable match, both teams will want to win, but I think the team that will win the match is already clear

Seriously? Fulham scored 5 goals in their last two matches, you're really underestimating Fulham especially Newcastle was having 3 lose streaks. I'm rooting for Fulham in this match, Fulham can beat West Ham while West Ham isn't a weak club.

From the end of January, we will know the club that can win the Premier League trophy.

Quoted, I will wait until the end of January to see the club in the top standing, let's see.

It happened exactly as I predicted and Fulham could not even score a goal in this match. Newcastle also managed to beat their opponent by scoring 3 goals. If only I had placed a bet on the match score, I would have won good money. Newcastle had been losing points for 2 weeks and managed to gain 3 points again. They will face Chelsea for the cup in the next match. I wonder if they can show a similar game against them

They really did well today.

In fact, when the match hadn't started yet, but I was just shocked about how Manchester City could be so favored based on the odds. After all, basically Crystal Palace is not a weak team at all and at the same time, at least at this moment Manchester City is experiencing a decline in performance. So ya, with this draw I personally not surprised at all because after all, I also bet with the Asian handicap option for Crystal Palace and I got it.

But apart from that match, I am sorry for the incident that occurred in the match between Bournemouth v Luton Town which was postponed, because there was an incident with the captain of Luton Town (Tom Lockyer) who collapsed until he was unconscious. Well, hopefully Tom Lockyer can recover and ya, based on the information circulating, previously Tom Lockyer also has experienced an incident like this and Tom Lockyer has also had heart surgery.

[Marykeller]

Chelsea performance during the first half was nothing but embarrassment to the top teams despite playing on their own home against a bottom team. It's indeed impressive seeing how they turn things around this second half with a double against nil but truth be told, Chelsea has a lot of work to do upfront else they'll continue to suffer defeat when they meet top teams. There's no atom of creativity in the forward and many chances wasted before being able to secure a goal is not a good signal at all. With the presence of Nkuku in the squad after a long absence due to injury will perhaps make some difference. We still have a long way to go for this season and it is too early to make some judgment now.

Without a doubt, Chelsea still has a long way to go in terms of finishing. Their finishing and creativity in today's match weren't encouraging at all even though they won by 2 goals, they still lacked a coordinated performance that could easily lead to their victory in big and small matches. Chelsea are lucky that they played against a less tough team like Sheffield United. If they played against a big team with this kind of performance they used playing against Sheffield United, they would have lost 3 points

Of course, I have said the results were both unexpected and surprising. Manchester City took 19 kicks in this match and 9 of them were on target, but this was not a lucky day for Pep Guardiola's troops because in the end the score 2-2 was the end of the match. This was obviously a very disappointing result and did not go according to plan at all, also it was a match that many gamblers lost.

Pep Guardiola and Manchester City are currently under pressure, they have failed to win many matches which has resulted in them creating a poor points gap with other competitors. Pep Guardiola must work better for the next match, so they don't have to get caught up in what is happening now.

The statistical percentage of Manchester City with a draw is what is surprising and beyond the expectations of many people who bet on Manchester City winning, even I myself bet on Manchester City winning.
19 total shots, 9 shots on target, 3.94 xGOT, 812 passes up to 74% ball possession obtained by Manchester City during 90+6 minutes. Of course, this result was very disappointing and gave rise to a lot of disappointment, especially for those who bet and secondly for Manchester City fans and Pep Guardiola.

Pep Guardiola and Manchester City are currently under pressure, they have failed to win many matches which has resulted in them creating a poor points gap with other competitors. Pep Guardiola must work better for the next match, so they don't have to get caught up in what is happening now.

In this context, it is clear that Pep Guardiola is not in a happy position but is in a pressured position considering that competition will be increasingly fierce as defending champion.
By the way, I am secretly happy with this result and hope that Manchester United can get full points against Liverpool so that the competition for the PL title will be even more exciting.
