Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[X-ray]

Admitting that Newcastle has been somewhat lackluster recently. From a fairly good position, with a chance to advance to the Round of 16 in the UCL, they have experienced a significant downturn and were eliminated regrettably. In the match against Liverpool, I believe they made a mistake by choosing an offensive strategy against Liverpool, perhaps because they were trailing. However, going offensive against Liverpool is disadvantageous as Liverpool excels in rapid counter-attacks. So, Newcastle was easily defeated.

Newcastle suffered a setback due to the increasing injury crisis in the team, they have lost most of their starting players to injury and they still keep having players injured. Just before the match against Liverpool they lost trippier to injury again, a key player for them and it is the reason they have been lagging behind recently. They always put up agoid fight against stronger opponents but I guess Liverpool are more good offensively that’s why they couldn’t hold them but they put up a good fight anyway despite having so many injured players.

How many players were injured? I don't even see a lot of them were injured. Newcastle could still put gordon, or even joelinton in the last games but their performance were dropping drastically. I dunnow what the reason is but it was a setback for all of them.
Eddie howe's position is being threatened with the bad result achieved by the team. I don't see a lot of different and have you watched it before? Isaak was also playing the game which was the main striker owned by newcastle.
That's unlike manchester city which has been missing a lot of most important players like haaland and bruyne which was king of assist and top scorer last season. Newcastle is in a better position.
I would not use injury to make another excuses. Eddie howe shall be sacked or newcastle will still be on the worst performance. He has become the main problem of newcastle. That's why eddie needs to be kicked out.

[Salahmu]

Liverpool is a tough opponent for Newcastle in away and home match, the statistical record of the meeting between the two is proof of Liverpool toughness in beating Newcastle, it's nice to see Mohammed Salah carry out his heroic actions even though he failed once, he still tried to perform optimally until finally he scored 2 goal for Liverpool and with goal he added to his goal collection list, now Mohammed Salah goal collection has reached 14 goals this season and has the same score as Erling Haaland.

I was surprised with the penalty Salah missed on that match because actually Salah has been one of the best penalty shooter but it was unfortunate that he was not able to score, if not Liverpool would have given Newcastle United 5-2. Actually Liverpool have really peak form because they seem to have been maintaining there consistent wining lately and however with there wining they have gotten more upper edge against every other clubs on the league.

One of the things I like about Liverpool is that they don't joke with there home matches and also aside from playing from home there is no way Newcastle United can win Liverpool on less during the beginning of the season when Newcastle United was in there good performance before they lose form, so now Liverpool remains the best.

[piebeyb]

Eddie Howe has previously always been praised for being able to provide good consistency at the start of the season and this time the Newcastle coach must be under pressure to deal with this problem.

I think Eddie Howe has shown his best game with his team at Anfield and of course we all know that it is difficult for Newcastle to win at Anfield because Liverpool always play well, actually Liverpool was helped by two penalties but we still have to admit that Liverpool performed better than Newcastle, plus the absence of several of Newcastle's key players, means they have to rotate players to visit Anfield by fielding all the players you have and playing with maximum strength.

I think Eddie Howe will definitely evaluate Newcastle's defeat, which in these five matches was quite bad, only winning once and losing four times including consecutive defeats, that is really not good for a club, Newcastle must be able to overcome this problem in the future because if not there is no hope of being there. in the top four it will be very difficult for them to catch.

[dzungmobile]

I was surprised with the penalty Salah missed on that match because actually Salah has been one of the best penalty shooter but it was unfortunate that he was not able to score, if not Liverpool would have given Newcastle United 5-2.

Salah does not have too impressive successful rate with penaties. He missed some penalties in his career but he was given many chances at penalty spots because he is a best scorer of Liverpool and they wanted to help him winning leagues scorer award.

Look at his penalty stats.
https://www.transfermarkt.com/mohamed-salah/elfmetertore/spieler/148455
38 penalties, missed 9. Surely it is not a high successful rate.

Actually Liverpool have really peak form because they seem to have been maintaining there consistent wining lately and however with there wining they have gotten more upper edge against every other clubs on the league.

They are on fire and are showing their power even against strong opponents like Newcastle United. Through a half of season, Liverpool shown that they are very ambitious, strong and seriously want to win another Premier League with Klopp.

I would not be surprised by Newcastle defeat after previously knowing that many of the main players were injured and had experienced a decline in performance since then, which had consistently declined greatly. even though previously in the early stages of the season, Newcastle was able to appear impressive and had quite strong consistency, but things slowly changed to become very weak and Liverpool victory was guaranteed previous predictions because Liverpool is in quite good condition at the moment.

Eddie Howe has previously always been praised for being able to provide good consistency at the start of the season and this time the Newcastle coach must be under pressure to deal with this problem.

Newcastle defeat was justified, Liverpool were at the peak of their best performance, playing at home, while Newcastle were facing the opposite situation, the injury factor had a big impact on their performance. Many of the goals scored were unexpected, perhaps more if Salah had not failed to execute the penalty, the additional 3 points further confirmed the Reds' position at the top of the standings while also managing to create a gap with their closest competitor Aston Villa.

However, I think Liverpool point difference is not completely safe, because the competition in the future will be even tighter. Man City has shown signs of consistency, and Aston Villa must also be closely watched. I am impressed with the consistency of Unai Emery squad, of course I am curious about them, and to what extent Emery can make his squad stay in the top four of the standings.

[Mayor of ogba]

Liverpool has been playing so much better than Newcastle. Based on the match schedule, I can tell that Liverpool has already won. This is because Newcastle isn't able to play as well as they did at the start of the season, when they were beating big clubs. They have lost seven of their last eight games. I was thinking that Newcastle's performance would remain steady until the end of the season, but sadly, they have started to weaken. Not every Premier League team can become strong for the entire season. Moh Sallah is a wonderful player, even though he missed a penalty, he still scored two goals because he couldn't allow his team lose, they deserved to win.

With 45 points, Liverpool has become stronger at the top of the league by getting the three points. I don't think Arsenal are going to be a challenge to Liverpool just yet, but since they still have games left to play, we can't judge them for their losing matches yet. possibly these weaknesses will make them stronger as they go for the Premier League title. After all, it's not too late.

If Mohamad Salah continues like this, he score more goals than Haaland. Both now have 14 goals, Salah in 20 games and Haaland in 15. So there is a good chance that Mo Salah will soon be the Permian Leagues top scorer. If you look at the Permier Leaugie statistics of both players, Haaland made 50 games and 50 goals... a goal in every game. Mo Salah has 251 games and 153 goals, both stats are very impressive. Last season Arsenal were ton place one after 20 games and had 47 points. In the 21/22 season, Manchester City were first with 50 points.

Salah is in good form for Liverpool, and helping Liverpool win matches by knowing when to score for his club. When it comes to winning this year's premier league top scorer, I see Haaland winning it because Salah will soon go for the African Cup of Nations, and he will miss some matches for Liverpool which will make Haaland score more goals than Salah.

[rendravolt]

He was dumped by Chelsea, then Roma took him and turned him into a dangerous winger in Serie A and after that he returned to the EPL but with a different club until finally making Mohammed Salah enter the list of the top 5 top scorers in one EPL club. Who would have thought he would do it with Liverpool and since wearing the Liverpool uniform in 2017 until now he has collected 151 goals in the EPL. In last night's match against Newcastle he scored a brace and at the same time led Liverpool to victory again at Anfield.

I think Mohammed Salah has become a legend for the Reds and even though his teammates like Mane and Firminho have left before him, he still stays at Liverpool to continue the tradition. Even Jurgen Kloop will be very disadvantaged if he loses Mohammed Salah and he still needs time to find a successor to Mohammed Salah at Liverpool. An achievement we rarely see and huge appreciation for Mohammed Salah for reaching this level.

[hyudien]

After the first game of 2024, Liverpool is still leading the Premier League. I believe that we should pay close attention to Liverpool because they are making an effort to convey to the public that they will be the team to win the title this season. Their defensive players and even their midfield players are in good shape. The only area in which Liverpool is currently struggling is with a striker who is not as intelligent as Haaland in Manchester City. If he were intelligent, I think no other team could defeat Liverpool and win the Premier League title this season.

Liverpool's optimism about winning a trophy this season is very supportive because now they can breathe a sigh of relief and continue to focus on maintaining the top of the standings. Based on trends, it certainly does not rule out the possibility that Liverpool will become more confident. In today's match, Newcastle has put up extraordinary resistance, but because of this, Anfield is the most terrifying stadium and is able to provide plus points for the hosts in improving their playing mentality. So his aggressiveness in the second half could not be stopped.

On the other hand, Man City experienced a slight decline compared to last season because the composition of its players was incomplete. Forcing them to fall in quite a surprising position. Haaland doesn't seem to be able to repeat the success like last season.

There would always be good and bad things. Chelsea has decided it caused by the club has been consider it so many times. There shall not be a party who regret it. Chelsea had chosen its own way while salah did it too.
I don't know what are you feeling contradicted with it? Chelsea was still able winning a lot of trophies even without then salah was also getting his golden time when liverpool won UCL with him too.

There will always be pros and cons in any decision taken by the club. Chelsea was not only considering it his performance in the short term but the club needs also to think about the future of team as well.
Chelsea was still able getting UCL, EPL and europa league after that. The club shall never feel regret to let him leave caused by it was giving huge impact to the performance of chelsea a few years ago. AFAIK, chelsea won EPL after salah joined in the roma.

Liverpool is in good form, so winning against Newcastle and maintaining the top position is understandable. Both teams opted for an offensive style of play, but Newcastle seemed to be weaker, making them susceptible to goals in Liverpool's counter-attacks. This early New Year's win is hopefully a stroke of luck for them.

However, Liverpool should look at the examples of Arsenal and Mancity, as they are teams that have also lost their top spots due to complacent matches and consistently dropping points regrettably in recent times. It's essential to remember that Aston Villa is closely trailing them, and with a few missteps, the top spot could slip away from their grasp.

Liverpool were actually dominant throughout the game and they deserved to win. The amount of goals Newcastle is conceding recently is setting up a bad record for the team especially in away matches. The goalie deserves a very applaud for his excellent performance yesterday otherwise Newcastle would have conceded more than five goals or even more. The players need to work on their ball control and retention as well because the way they lose control of the ball cheaply and giving erroneous passes is getting too much. It's time for Newcastle to upgrade if they truly have the ambitions to be a regular top four and ready to win trophies.

Nevertheless, Newcastle showed a good fighting spirit yesterday at Anfield but the odds was not on their side and the officiating ruined everything in the end. Despite playing defensively, Liverpool were too strong to withstand and they force their way to penetrate in and maintain the lead on the table. It's a great and stylish way to begin the new year.

[vennali]

Strikers and scoring midfielders get all the love. Defenders and goalkeepers arent talked about as much, as it isn't flashy or eye-catching. Here's some goalkeeper stats on how well the GK's have performed so far this season.


PSxG(Post shot expected goals - expected goals based on how likely a goalkeeper is expected to save the shot), PSxG/Sot(Post shot expected goals per shot on target), PSxG+/-(Post shot expected goals minus the goals actually allowed)

Vicario has been a great signing for Spurs. I have highlights PSxG+/- because it highlights how he has performed better in situations where an average goalkeeper would have probably let the goals in. In layman's terms, He's saved more than 6 goals for Spurs, while an average keeper wouldn't have, as a goal was expected outcome depending on where the shot was taken from and where on target it was hit (in short, the quality of the shot).

I might even call him as one of the signings of the season. Who's your fav signing of this season in the premier league?

[Odohu]

I think Mohammed Salah has become a legend for the Reds and even though his teammates like Mane and Firminho have left before him, he still stays at Liverpool to continue the tradition. Even Jurgen Kloop will be very disadvantaged if he loses Mohammed Salah and he still needs time to find a successor to Mohammed Salah at Liverpool. An achievement we rarely see and huge appreciation for Mohammed Salah for reaching this level.

Salah is truly unpredictable and have remained relevant in his career. I was expecting the exit of Mane to weaken him somehow considering the role Mane played in the team. But Somehow, Salah always find a way to put the team in the spotlight, scoring important goals as Liverpool continue to make progress.

I was personally of the opinion that it was time for him to go for the oil money of the House of Saud, so his values will be high as he is still in his prime. But it seems he is not thinking in that direction yet. As long as he is getting the results at Anfield, I doubt Jurgen Kloop will be able to let him go. Liverpool's chances of winning the league is very high. They've got all it take to maintain their present lead even though the margin between then and Manchester City, their biggest rival, is not wide.

I think the people are not mistaken when at least they see a chance for Arsenal to win the Premier League trophy this season. I mean why would they not have a chance? Maybe people agree that this is not the biggest chance of their lifetime, but to say that they have no chance would be completely wrong. People started to contemplate whether Aston Villa could potentially have a chance to win the title if they can continue the season like that, but as we have now seen these dreams can blow up within a very short period of time. However, Aston Villa is still at the top with Liverpool.

It's true that ruling out any team's chances entirely might be premature. Arsenal, like any other top team in the league, has a chance to contend for the title. People contemplating Aston Villa's chances only to witness a change in dynamics is a testament to the competitiveness and volatility of the league. The standings can shift rapidly, and teams that may not have been initially considered title contenders can emerge as serious challengers.

The Premier League is known for its competitiveness, and every season brings new narratives and unexpected outcomes. Aston Villa's presence at the top of the table alongside Liverpool further emphasizes the point that early-season form and dreams can evolve or be challenged as the season progresses. Sustained performance and consistency are crucial factors in the title race, because the true contenders will emerge based on their performances.

I fully agree with you and the point is if it was the same every single year, nobody would be watching it with excitement. Some people talk about the dominance of Manchester City over the last few years, but what does dominance even mean? When you look at the competition Manchester City had, it took record after record to win the title in some seasons. Yes, they won it several times, but when you consider what it took them to win the title, holy shit that was well deserved then. In 21/22 it was their 93 points against Liverpool's 92 points. In 18/19 it was their 98 points against Liverpool's 97 points.

When people use the word dominance, it is true when you look at the number of titles in recent years only. But when we consider what effort was required to win the title, then it becomes obvious how crazy competitive this league is. Of course there are more relaxed years with a big gap, but sometimes it takes literally 200% effort to cross the finish line as the winner.

It's true that M. Salah was dumped and loaned by Chelsea to several clubs in Serie A, such as Fiorentina and Roma, and Roma then bought him. After that he came to Liverpool until now since 2017.

And now Chelsea is doing the same thing with one of the players they have. The player who had the same fate as M. Salah was R. Lukaku. Lukaku was also thrown away, treated the same as M. Salah. For the past 2 seasons, Lukaku has been on loan to two Serie A clubs. Last season Lukaku was loaned to Inter Milan and achieved good results there. Now Lukaku is on loan at Roma and now Lukaku is also one of the top scorers at the Roma club. And is currently the 3rd top scorer in Serie A.

And the funny thing is that Lukaku also has the potential to be bought in the transfer market next season by Roma and it is possible that one day Lukaku will return to the EPL and become a legend at one of the EPL clubs. If that happens then once again Chelsea have wasted a player.

Salah is still willing to play in liverpool till his contract will be running out. It's still a few years from now and i think that moment will be using by him to go to the saudi pro league. Saudi was also very close to the egypt and playing in SPL will become the best decision caused by he can retire and enjoy the game by playing in the saudi pro league. he can also meet his families too in egypt. Given Salah's choice to stay for an extended period rather than departing for the Saudi Pro League earlier, there is no point in rushing it.

Salah know what he shall do consider he is still healthy enough to keep play in the liverpool. Salaha has so much dreams and he is willing to make it happen one by one. going to the SPL will become the last option for him caused by salah has his heart on liverpool.
The outcome will depend on how he responds to his wife's insistence that he joins the Saudi Pro League, so we can only wait and see. There is a lot of dynamic movement in the footballs.

This makes footbal is unpredictable. Another surprise move may be happening before the end of this month. various clubs are trying so hard to get their target.

Lukaku is soon turning 31 and I doubt that there is still enough time left to become a legend at any of the Premier League clubs. Seriously, what should Lukaku do to become a legend at any of the clubs? I think he would be better off if he stayed in Italy and tried his luck to become a legend there. It is not the best season for Roma now, but perhaps he can contribute to win a title with them.

Regarding Salah, that was a big mistake by Chelsea but with all due respect, I can't remember when Chelsea made a great transfer decision the last time... They are not known for having the Midas touch when they decide to buy or sell players. i think they could invest 2 billion euros and still fail.

EPL is home for elite clubs. We are talking about the big six clubs of EPL. Where we have Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal. Not a fan of these elite clubs doesn't count you as a fan that's suppose to engaging in fights for the EPL titles in both past and the present. I'm a blue fan, Chelsea have quite good players in the past, they missed out on their young players, these events do happen to every elite clubs where they would triggered the sell clause of young players with potentials. These players that have moved from chelsea was not in their prime form.

They just buy expensively and then loan them to other teams and then let them go for cheaper.

Corrrect. Lukaku is no longer young so he would be more suitable for Serie A, especially AS Roma. Because he found a suitable coach and had actually worked with him at a previous club. Mourinho and Lukaku already understand each other. So now we can see AS Roma improving slightly on the front line after bringing in Lukaku. Unfortunately their defense is still bad so they are still having difficulty getting into the top 4.

After the first game of 2024, Liverpool is still leading the Premier League. I believe that we should pay close attention to Liverpool because they are making an effort to convey to the public that they will be the team to win the title this season. Their defensive players and even their midfield players are in good shape. The only area in which Liverpool is currently struggling is with a striker who is not as intelligent as Haaland in Manchester City. If he were intelligent, I think no other team could defeat Liverpool and win the Premier League title this season.

We always try to get points in every big game in the Premier League. Caution for Liverpool is carried out by other teams below who still want the Premier League trophy for the 2023-2024 season, not Liverpool.
Manchester City is the only team currently predicted to be a tough competitor.
For Liverpool, trying to get points in every match will make the Reds slowly become stronger at the top.

Yesterday's victory against Newcastle has become good capital for Liverpool to face Arsenal's challenges in other tournaments. Klopp's focus is temporarily on Arsenal and Fulham.
The next team that will challenge in the Premier League is Bournemouth.

[Inwestour]

Liverpool's optimism about winning a trophy this season is very supportive because now they can breathe a sigh of relief and continue to focus on maintaining the top of the standings. Based on trends, it certainly does not rule out the possibility that Liverpool will become more confident. In today's match, Newcastle has put up extraordinary resistance, but because of this, Anfield is the most terrifying stadium and is able to provide plus points for the hosts in improving their playing mentality. So his aggressiveness in the second half could not be stopped.

On the other hand, Man City experienced a slight decline compared to last season because the composition of its players was incomplete. Forcing them to fall in quite a surprising position. Haaland doesn't seem to be able to repeat the success like last season.

From the beginning of the match it became clear that everything would end badly for Newcastle, in the first half they were terrible, and 0-0 even looked strange. But the second half put everything in its place, Liverpool's advantage was too significant for Newcastle to have any chance of winning, although it is worth giving them credit for doing everything they could.

Newcastle's decline turned out to be too significant, if we remember the Newcastle that beat PSG in the Champions League and the one we see now - these are two different teams, and the current Newcastle has no chance of competing with the top teams.

I don’t agree that City had a slump, they just missed a few matches and still have a game in hand, so City doesn’t let Liverpool go far, everyone has equal chances for now.
