Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[tusandii]

Regardless of the result we saw in the game between Newcastle and Fulham, it which Newcastle won the game with a 3-0 result while they had a good performance in this match. It seems we saw a new record in this team about their young player Lewis Miley.
Now Lewis Miley can be a new talent in Newcastle because, after the goal he scored for his team, Lewis Miley is the youngest player who scored a goal for Newcastle and the youngest in the premier league.
This player can definitely have a shining future and we can definitely get amazing offers from other teams.
  

Will this be Lewis Miley first goal during his time at Newcastle?
This is one of the new talents that Newcastle will be successful in developing and if in the long term Lewis Miley can continue to improve his talent, he will certainly be targeted by many clubs, but I believe that Newcastle will not let this player go before making a huge contribution to his club.
Yesterday's match was very interesting but the foul committed by Raul Jimenez was very dangerous for the opposing players even though he was a striker who should have played a little more carefully and that was carelessness for the new Fulham players in the first half who had to compete with 10 unbalanced players so it was only natural that Newcastle could score 3 scores while Fulham only competed with 10 players and I think if Fulham didn't get a red card the situation would be different and it could have ended in a draw because Fulham also occasionally put pressure on newcastle.

Is Manchester City's dominance starting to collapse this season? because they have had poor results in the last month which has made it even more difficult for them to recover. The draw against Crystal Palace is another blow for Manchester City and Liverpool are certainly very enthusiastic to hear this news because their chances of winning the EPL this season are getting bigger. Now Manchester City is also increasingly close to being knocked out of the top 4 and Spurs seems ready to replace Manchester City next week if Pep Guardiola's squad gets another draw or loses.

I think they will improve the current situation every week, but they cannot prevent the losses. Manchester City team will not be able to gain leadership dominance this year, and such losses will cause great problems for Manchester City. In fact, the fans are tired of being at the top alone, and I can say that not having teams like Liverpool, Arsenal and Aston Villa at the top adds a little more excitement to the league. Because it was something that was never expected for Manchester City to have such a bad month with consecutive losses, but I think Pep will pull the team together.

That will not be enough for Manchester City because a draw at home will make the existing results even worse. It was the third draw at home for Manchester City this season and since the arrival of Pep Guardiola, this is the first time he has had a bad record.

It is clear that Pep Guardiola, who has always been praised for his genius, is now starting to be doubted and it seems that fans must give their support to everyone who works for Manchester City. They haven't finished yet because they still have half a season left and now it's just a matter of how Manchester City can win again because I'm pretty sure Pep Guardiola's current strategy can be read by other teams so they can win too.

That's right, a draw at home is a result that not all teams expected, especially for a team like Manchester City. However, you need to remember that every team always has certain challenges and situational obstacles in each season. I am sure Manchester City will remain a team that has the quality and ability to recover from difficult situations like this. Pep Guardiola's achievements and positive contributions during his tenure, even the best managers experience challenges in the world of football. A bad record is not the end of everything, but rather an invitation for introspection and improvement.

Indeed, many people appreciate Pep Guardiola's intelligence as a coach in formulating his strategies. In my opinion, in football there is always a challenge to be able to provide change at every moment in the journey. Pep Guardiola's strategy, although doubted by some, may have an element of surprise that could help the team bounce back. It's important to remember that every team faces ups and downs, and this could be an opportunity for Manchester City to show its resilience. In football, anything is possible, and the remaining half of the season could be an interesting time to see how Manchester City can compete again.

I think this week will end really badly for Manchester City. Because I believe Liverpool, Arsenal and Aston Villa all are in a situation to be able to win their games this week. Liverpool can win against Manchester United home easily while Manchester United are bad at defending. Arsenal should be able to beat Brighton home as well.

Aston Villa are playing an away game against Brentford but Brentford are really bad this season. They were able to win only once on their last 5 game weeks in the league. I don't think they can hold off Aston Villa from winning another game.

Man City received another draw when they hosted Crystal Palace, even though if you look at the match Man City could have won the match, but because Crystal Palace didn't just give up they managed to equalize which made Man City lose two points at home. Arsenal and Aston Villa will definitely be quite at an advantage because they are having a much easier match, so securing full points is not difficult for them to get.

Liverpool will also face a big match and although overall Man United is not in good form, I am sure Liverpool will not easily secure full points. Ten Hak is under great pressure and if he accepts defeat it will put his future at Man United at risk, therefore I predict the match will end in a draw.

Glad to see that young talent was able maximizing a chance that has been given to him. That's amazing to see that miley was breaking a new record but fulham is so clueless during the game. The stats were saying the truth about this match.
As long as lewis miley will be getting more time to play in the main squad and he will get more experience to develop himself to be a better player. Since he was still very young and he needs to dig himself even deeper by acquiring more strength.

I hope howe will give him a chance to play in the upcoming game. Having young player in the squad was not always meant bad for the club. As long as the young player can build good chemistry and it will be possible for the club to game.
He was so amazing during the game. This is my first time to see him and he has delivered an amazing performance. He was even better compared to the 65 millions striker owned by manchester city which was unable scoring till now.
Lewis shall be priced more than hojlund if there was a club that has interest to recruit him. What a beautiful performance he gave. If lewis can keep consistent with his performance and howe needs to give guaranteed spot in the main suqad for him.

Manchester United disappointed the fans by being eliminated from the UCL this week, but their victory in the match to be played at the weekend will boost their morale. I guess they haven't been last in the group for a long time. This season is a terrible season. They are already starting to look ahead to next year.

Looking to the future or not having big hopes because Ten Hag continues to provide  uncertainty for the club and fans. Now the risk of being a failed coach in a row is always a subject of criticism and indeed the current  era is different. So Ten Hag will increasingly lose the trust of his players. So going back to the player mentality whether facing Liverpool is much more difficult and at Anfield it always  gives Man United a sad impression that will happen again? That's  what Man United must look at today. because looking to the  future depends on the coach while Ten Hag himself  is no longer sure about his monotonous and ineffective strategy. Against Liverpool requires the coach  dexterity in stopping the flow of the ball the competing strategies  between Klopp and Ten Hag are of different quality.

Manchester City just got from bad to worse as they again at home against a weaker team left point.This time is completely different though as they are not fighting only against Arsenal but also against other teams fighting for the Champion title and I am afraid for them it is already game over despite how strong of a team they are.

It looks like Liverpool is going to enjoy this type of result as they are the most consistent team so far in the Premier League and they most likely will continue to be consistent and for me are the strongest league contenders so far.Arsenal has showed that they are a very volatile team compared to Liverpool.com

Liverpool can win against Manchester United home easily while Manchester United are bad at defending. Arsenal should be able to beat Brighton home as well.

Aston Villa are playing an away game against Brentford but Brentford are really bad this season. They were able to win only once on their last 5 game weeks in the league. I don't think they can hold off Aston Villa from winning another game.

Even though Manchester United's defense is considered weak in my opinion, this will end in a draw from Manchester United's performance in the last few matches which continues to experience inconsistency in every match even though they just suffered defeat last week and in the Champions League, in my opinion Manchester United will correcting and evaluating their previous game, even though they have to face Liverpool and getting points seems to be difficult at least with a draw it would be much better, even though it sounds like they don't have optimism in running their match..

It looks like Arsenal and Aston Villa will win easily because they only have to win the match, if Arsenal loses then Arsenal will be in 3rd place in the standings, in fact if Astom Villa wins the match then they will move up in class, if both lose then nothing will change from the rankings perhaps Man City will move to second place in the standings and both Arsenal and Aston Villa will be knocked out of their current standings.

EPL have become more tougher and it will take only a club that's consistent to do better in the league. I wouldn't blame Manchester City for the decline in performance, rather we know the absence of key players is the main reason they're not doing well in league matches. Winning the EPL this season will be consider tough for them, they will adapt to the new setting. Manchester city performance have grown to become fonder because we're unable to explain the present condition of the club. Pep Guardiola working entirely to restore the club's consistency but I think it will take lengthy period before things finally balance in the club.

Manchester United's performance is currently quite poor after a series of unsatisfactory results they have received since the start of the season, but the match against Liverpool is a prestigious match because of the rivalry between the two teams that has existed for several years.
So even though Manchester United is in a slump, it is not impossible that in this match they can come out and rise to match Liverpool's performance.
I think in football anything is possible.

The match between Liverpool vs Man United this time cannot be considered a big match because the conditions of the two teams are very different. Liverpool is in good form while Man United is in a slump. I am sure that Liverpool will easily win the match considering that Man United's condition is currently in a slump and Man United will even lose many important players in the match. Apart from that, Liverpool is unbeaten this season when playing at home. Therefore, even though Man United will lose the match later, I estimate that at least Man United will not be slaughtered like last season where Man United lost 0-7 when playing at Anfield. I also predict that Erik ten Hag will rely on counter attacks considering that he cannot field a number of important players, perhaps the only way for Erik ten Hag to withstand the onslaught of Liverpool attacks, then Man United will rely on counter attacks and defend tightly because if Erik ten Hag want Man United to play openly, then you can be sure that Man United will concede a lot of goals in the match.

West Ham vs Wolves

West ham want return to the winning ways after beated by Fulham with big scores last week and currently they will attempts to beat Wolves and if West Ham can able to performing well today i think they can beat Wolves because based on the head to head statistics i can see West Ham has good records from Wolves even in the last two meeting at their home ground West Ham can able to win all of the match so i am confident West Ham will being an the winner of this match and West Ham win has odds @2.01

Brentford vs Aston Villa

We all know Aston Villa performance was outstanding this season because previously they can able to beat strong teams several times but for this match i wouldn't say this is hard match for Aston Villa but if they unable to performing well Brentford have a potention to make them slipped today because based on meeting statistics Brentford can make Aston Villa get in trouble several times

I know Aston Villa was quite strong during playing at Villa Park but when playing away Aston Villa has unstable performance even during this season Aston Villa have already lose 3 times while playing away but they can improved their away matches records because today Brentford has faced storm injured this because at least 8 players who will not available today and if Aston Villa can able to performing well today i think they have potention to improved their away matches records and win this match and Aston Villa has odds @2.36

City is now in fourth position currently which is very surprising, Liverpool, Arsenal and Aston Villa are all above them. The draw against Crystal Palace shows that they might not easily dominate the league this season. City's next game will be against a strong side Everton in Goodison Park and that game will determine how well they will fair this year. A loss or draw will not be a good result because it might move them down further.

It looks like Liverpool is going to enjoy this type of result as they are the most consistent team so far in the Premier League and they most likely will continue to be consistent and for me are the strongest league contenders so far.Arsenal has showed that they are a very volatile team compared to Liverpool.com

Liverpool has lost just one game and drew four games which shows consistency. They have a strong side that will compete favourably with other top clubs. A win against Manchester United today will move Liverpool to forty points, six points above the defending champions. I can readily bet on Liverpool than Arsenal because the former is more consistent.

[rendravolt]

Surely everyone remembers the score of this match and yes it was the last Liverpool vs Manchester United meeting at Anfield with a very tragic score for the Red Devils. Seven goals without reply and that proves Liverpool's ball is merciless, especially against their eternal rival. History will be etched again in the next match which will also bring together the same match between Liverpool vs Manchester United at Anfiled and what will be the score in this match later?

If you look at the performance of the two teams, of course Liverpool is still the better one because not only are they at the top of the temporary EPL standings but they continue to conquer the winning trend. Time and time again Liverpool won games dramatically in the final minutes of the match and they did it with a winning mentality. Meanwhile, Manchester United continues to decline after last week losing to Bournemouth with a landslide score and in the Champions League they were eliminated after losing against Bayern Munich. The team coached by Erik Ten Hag seems to have no hope left and it is clear that Liverpool will win this match again, even with a landslide score considering that Onana still often makes blunders.

Yes, Man City lost points where they should have earned them... Arsenal and Liverpool can really widen the gap in the standings... As for Aston Villa, I think they are really favourites to win against Brentford... But Aston Villa have a bad away record against Brentford... I think they might draw...

The performance of Manchester City has deteriorated drastically. Do not think anyone actually expected this performance from them. And let's also remember that all the other teams that are ahead of them, all three have played one match less compared to them. So now the gap in terms of points can actually be much bigger than it is right now. Manchester City better not lose any more upcoming matches. Otherwise, they will not be able to defend the English Premier League title successfully.

It's up and down cycle in the football. I see nothing wrong with this as long as manchester city can comeback stronger at the end of season and that's enough for me. I will never try underestimated manchester city caused by it was only getting several bad results in EPL.
manchester city was not as strong as what it used to be. Pep is aware about that and he will be making some improvements in the club.

It looks like Liverpool is going to enjoy this type of result as they are the most consistent team so far in the Premier League and they most likely will continue to be consistent and for me are the strongest league contenders so far.Arsenal has showed that they are a very volatile team compared to Liverpool.com

So far so good. Liverpool was able managing the performance from the club properly. Arsenal was good but we have learned a lot from the old history. Arsenal was always bottling its advantage in EPL unlike liverpool.
I do agree if you said that if liverpool has greater chance to win the competition than arsenal. Arsenal may be trying so hard to compete with liverpool for EPL but i hope liverpool will be winning it.

Let's said that if the odds for the EPL winners of this season is not changing a lot. Liverpool is strongest contender to wi the competition.

[rahmad2nd]

We have 2 interesting matches in the Premier League today Arsenal vs Brighton and Liverpool vs Manchester United I think we can all agree that the 2 home teams are favorites to win, apart from playing at home they are also in a race to win first place. On the other hand Arsenal have lost their last match so I'm sure they don't want to repeat the same mistake of course they don't want to let Liverpool comfortably stay in first place for a long time.

Arsenal vs Brighton.

In the last two matches in two competitions, Arsenal did not produce impressive results. lost against Aston Villa, were held to a draw when they visited PSV. of course, a result that we Gunners fans did not expect. Today, Arsenal will play a match against Brighton. we know that Arsenal are superior in this match, but don't ever assume that De Zerbi's squad is unable to put up a fight. in last season's meeting, Brighton was able to beat Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium with a score of 0-3. so, Arteta and his squad cannot underestimate their opposing team at all. referring to the predicted line-up, Arteta will field his main starting eleven squad. because no matter what, they must get full points in this match. Now we refer to the betting options, Arsenal with odds @1.50 and Brighton with @6.20.  It seems like betting on Brighton with the odds given is very interesting. but because Arsenal is my favorite team, of course you will give your full support to the Gunners. the ideal option in betting is to choose both teams to score odds @1.77. My estimate is that this match will end with a score of 2-1. or, 3-1 for the Gunners.


Liverpool vs Manchester Utd.

A match that I think will feature an exciting battle between the two teams. Liverpool with its 4-3-3, and Manchester United with its 4-2-3-1. referring to several news sources that I read, Rashford and Luke Shaw are certain to appear in this match. so tonight, Manchester United will play a crucial match. The Red Devil will play a crucial match against the Red at Anfield. Manchester United really needs to win this match against Liverpool, if United plays another bad match and loses. then their ranking will move further away from the top 4 in the standings. no different from Jurgen Kloop's squad, they will defeat United at Anfield, the Red's own headquarters. three points is a result they must get, especially since United is in an unstable condition. Referring to the odds, there is a clear gap between the two teams. Liverpool with @1.37, while United with @7.40. this is really tempting, even though Liverpool actually has a higher probability. but, I will take the risk to choose Manchester United with odds @7.40. I think it's worth the risk. so, let's look forward to these matches.

Liverpool can win against Manchester United home easily while Manchester United are bad at defending. Arsenal should be able to beat Brighton home as well.

Aston Villa are playing an away game against Brentford but Brentford are really bad this season. They were able to win only once on their last 5 game weeks in the league. I don't think they can hold off Aston Villa from winning another game.

Facing a dilemma situation, Man City must accept this week's results and let the top 3 teams extend their respective positions. Liverpool clearly have no problems and currently they are more on fire than before. Moreover, fighting Man United is certainly a motivation for every Liverpool player. Arsenal still have hope even though Brighton, despite facing a tough team, can always create opportunities to match their opponents on the field. Maybe it will be quite tight and 60% of Arsenal have the potential to win points and Brighton is also actually difficult to predict based on head to head. Brighton is still the favorite. I am quite optimistic about Aston Villa, I will definitely be able to handle the home and away playing conditions well and in this match I hope the positive trend can continue.

Am very excited about the current fire and form Liverpool has had, or do I call it luck, because their way to the top of the table came at a time when the other bigger teams lost or drew more than once.
The would sure do damage to the hopes of Manchester United winning or even securing a point in today's match bectthe later has rather been enduring a poor performance spell in all their recent league appearance.

For Arsenal, the win will be very much required because if they have to redeem their top position and be sure of the title in this league, then they definitely have to capitalize on the draw of Manchester city yesterday and the expected win against Brighton today .

Liverpool discovered their form at the right moment and am happy the way they are playing. I don't see a way for Manchester United to get a point in this game. I expect Liverpool to inflict more misery to the fringe Manchester United team.

Liverpool will also face a big match and although overall Man United is not in good form, I am sure Liverpool will not easily secure full points. Ten Hak is under great pressure and if he accepts defeat it will put his future at Man United at risk, therefore I predict the match will end in a draw.

It's too bad Man City is becoming less formidable in their recent matches it's seem the team is gradually losing their bid to defend their title because Arsenal and Liverpool won't give any room for complacency in their next matches for Man City to close the gap on them, I think Pep Guordiola bid to break the record of winning the premier league in four successive time by the club is gradually slipping out of their hand, Man City had only won one of six last previous matches this is a bad record for a defending champion to successful defend their title, meanwhile Man Utd has an opportunity to redeem themselves from their last dismal performance against Bournemouth later today though the odds favors Liverpool I hope Man Utd would spring a surprise.

Man United's defeat last season by Liverpool was truly a very bitter memory for the Red Devils team. It is possible that Man United will try to avenge their defeat. But seeing how different the consistency of these two teams is in the current season will really make us suspect that Liverpool will most likely win the match again with the same score. In fact, I also prefer to bet on the home team, namely Liverpool. But I also hope that both teams can score goals. And if Man United can't score even one goal in this match then Man United will really be in the worst condition. I think it's unlikely something similar will happen. What I mean is big scores like last season. Maybe this time Liverpool will only win by not so much. like 3-1 or 2-0.

I'm not sure Manchester City will suffer this week. Arsenal and Aston Villa are likely to win, but Liverpool's match with Manchester United is less likely. United can surprise in big matches, especially ones with historical rivalries like Liverpool, despite their poor defense. They might draw, which isnt ideal but better than losing. United's underperformance may motivate them to perform in such an important encounter.

Arsenal looks good against Brighton in the second game, and Brentford may not challenge Aston Villa. Football is unpredictable, and under pressure, teams can perform well. Although Arsenal and Aston Villa are likely to win, I wouldnt stake everything. When least expected, underdogs can win.
