Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Minecache]

It is expected that De Bruyne will start playing for the first team this January. His absence in the Manchester tram has really shown in the out put of Erling Halland. And Halland has to score lots of goals for Manchester to be able to win games and possibly climb on the table.

I'm not sure if you didn't notice that Kevin De Bruyne has recovered and played his first game against Sheffield on December 30 that's why Manchester City's game is slowly improving and is in 3rd position, it must be admitted that De Bruyne's presence really had an impact on the team it's just that I'm not sure De Bruyne will be played in today's match. In the near future Manchester City will become Liverpool's main competitor and after playing their 20th match Manchester City is only 2 points behind Liverpool, on the other hand Liverpool will play without Moh Salah because he joined the National team for the African Cup.

Kelvin De Bruyne is undeniably a great impact on the City team, a classic midfielder that is a masterpiece of his role on the pitch. Returning with an impressive assist despite staying away due to injury.

The most astonishing thing about how he played in the game against Huddersfield is as though he has been on the playing field throughout the beginning of this season till now. KDB is a class of its own.

It doesn't have to be in the nearest future, the competition is now already started with the return of Kevin De Bruyne and Doku back to the City's squad. Liverpool at same time losing their key player Mo.salah to his national team a call he has to obey and that's a big loophole for Liverpool who are currently on 45points  just 5 points on the top of the table above Manchester City that's in 3rd position with 40 points. So the points difference is not that much to catch up before Mo. Salah returns by the second week of February when the AFCON competition must have ended.

Kevin De Bruyne did not start the match against Huddersfield Town. I mean let's get real, even if he came back after 6 months, he does not need to play that match and risk another injury. But he came on the field after 57 minutes replacing Jack Grealish. Manchester City did well though, beating Huddersfield Town 5-0. I know they are not a good team but it is a big victory any team would be proud of.

Manchester City's current concern should be the premier league, they have already gone ahead of Arsenal because Arsenal fumbled in a few matches. Their next concern is Liverpool and Aston Villa. I believe they can get ahead of Aston Villa but Liverpool will be a problem. But now that Salah is playing in the AFCON, they can try to get over Liverpool with this chance.

If you look at the progress of the match in the first half. I think Arsenal is a little better than Liverpool, where they won possession of the ball and they had 6 shots on target. Meanwhile, Liverpool hasn't had a shot on target at all. Arsenal has an advantage because they are playing at home, so if Liverpool doesn't improve in the second half, I think Arsenal will be able to win this match.

Actually, Liverpool also fired a shot in the first half, but unfortunately it hit the crossbar hard. Arsenal certainly have more opportunities to score goals, but they are also less fortunate in taking advantage of these opportunities. The second half was much more exciting because Liverpool started to find better form, but Arsenal did not give up and they continued to try to break down Liverpool's defense.

Just like you, I think Arsenal has a higher chance of winning considering their performance in this match. The entry of Gabriel Martinelli will provide more benefits for Arsenal because Reis Nelson is not very reliable in my opinion. Liverpool had more difficulty building attacks, without Salah they had too much difficulty finding goals.

Neither team can score in 75 minutes. But so far in the match Arsenal's players are playing quite well compared to Liverpool's players. Arsenal's players are keeping the defense tight and then directing the attack. But they are not able to break Liverpool's strong defense.
Arsenal had 54% ball possession. And made 17 shots in these 75 minutes, 5 of which were on target. Liverpool on the other hand had 7 shots and one was on target. Players from both teams continued to try to score. Anything can happen in 15 minutes. Both teams have chances to win. But Liverpool's overall performance seems a bit slow today.

[Jossque]

Manchester City defeated Huddersfield Town 5-0 at home.It wasn't a very difficult game for City because their opponent was too easy for them.They didn't need to push too hard considering it was a cup tie.
Leeds United, on the other hand, beat Peterborough 3-0 away from home.Although the opponent was in good form, Leeds were expected to win because of the quality difference.
One of the more surprising results was West Ham's draw at home to Bristol, which I think most expected West Ham to win.

[ShowOff]

Manchester City defeated Huddersfield Town 5-0 at home.It wasn't a very difficult game for City because their opponent was too easy for them.They didn't need to push too hard considering it was a cup tie.

Yes, this was an easy game for Manchester City and they actually won it. Phil Foden scored 2 goals in this match, while Doku and Alvarez both scored 1 goal. Another goal was Ben Jackson's own goal before Doku closed the scoring party 5-0 at home.

The fierce match between Arsenal and Liverpool was more interesting. Arsenal, who had high enthusiasm to win, actually had to trail Liverpool 0-1 because of an own goal. Arsenal's performance was good from the first half, but there were many opportunities that some of their players failed to exploit properly. Liverpool also failed to take advantage of several opportunities, especially in the second half even though they had a better chance at the moment to win this match. A score of 0-1 is likely to be the final score in a fierce match that will force Arsenal to bite the bullet.

Arsenal are likely to lose 1-0 against Liverpool. In the 80th minute, defender Jakub Kiwior mistakenly put the ball into his own net. Such a mistake was not desirable in such an important match. I would say Arsenal were very unlucky.

Arsenal players performed well throughout the match. It would not be wrong to say that Arsenal dominated today's match. But in the end they won't win. Liverpool played a bit defensive in today's match. Because the Liverpool coach will not want any important player in his squad to face injury in this match. Because their main goal is to win the Premier League title.

Luiz Diaz just scored a stoppage time goal to seal Liverpool's win and end any Arsenal's hopes of coming back into the game. The both teams I must say played really well and had chances of winning the game before now but football is one game you must play in your full strength as a team till the final whistle before you can get a result and Liverpool were the team that really did fight till the end today.

Arsenal manager will definitely not be happy with the result but the thing is that he can't even do anything about it at the moment Liverpool has secured the win and sent Arsenal out of the English FA Cup competition.

Liverpool's victory was quite good even though they were more defensive but their attack was quite lethal until the final two goals in the last minute by Luis Diaz.

Jurgen Klopp is always careful when playing in this tournament, usually they lower the second layer but this is different because they know their opponents are not low teams, but throughout the match Arsenal dominated the game but it was a defeat for them at home, maybe this is the second time they have lost at home.

If Klopp can, the EPL, FA cup and Europa League they should get but I know getting the treble trophy is difficult, so the important thing is the EPL trophy.

[Weawant]

This is Arsenals second consecutive loss so far in recent time, their performance tonight in the FA cup was really unstable and without a good pattern, in the first half of the game they were able creat multiple chances and opportunities for them to scare a goal but they were really unable to convert the attempts to goals.

Liverpool had the second half balanced and we're able to secure victory by the end of the second half and I must comend their performance as it was a well organized one and they deserved the victory they had at the end of the game. Looking at Arsenals performance in the FA tonight, o honestly doubt their ability to be able to win the premier league by the end of this season, they may even literally struggle with the champions league because they don't have the solid form they did had earlier at the beginning of the season,. Liverpool did perform very well even in the absence of their star player Salah,  this showed they had little dependence on him because in his absence they were able to defeat an elite team.

[Jossque]

I expected Nottingham Forest to win at home.Nottingham, who managed to play well compared to their opponent, could not win the match.The home team, who closed the first half 2-1 behind, could not find enough goals despite the pressure in the second half.
Arsenal hosted Liverpool.The first half ended goalless and the goals came in the second half.Liverpool managed to win the game away from home despite the game going down the middle.Jakub Kiwior's own goal gave Liverpool the lead and Luis Diaz scored the winner.Arsenal didn't play badly but had problems in front of goal today.

Arsenal performance today is not good enough to convince us Arsenal fans; I did not expect us to lose this match because we have lost two consecutive matches in the Premier League before this match, and now Arsenal lost another match against Liverpool which eliminated them out of FA Cup for the second season consecutively. If this poor performance keep repeating itself, I am afraid if Arsenal will be able to win any trophy this season, but since we are out of both FA and Carling Cup, maybe our focus in the Premier League will help us win the league this season.

Yes, Manchester City are back on their track and this is the proof. Yes, I know Huddersfield Town is a very weak team but you know Manchester City had been struggling recently and they have shown they have come back, right?

Actually, FA Cup Matches usually depend on the squad depth for the big teams and Manchester City has shown that they are not rotten, they have good players on their benches.

But I didn't think Arsenal would lose. Both teams were playing their best available 11. Arsenal had good numbers of shots on target and had created more chances. But in the last 10 minutes of the match, they fumbled and that cost them the match.

I do not understand what you meant by Arsenal performance against Liverpool was so poor. We understand that Liverpool won Arsenal in this match but it was not an easy task for Liverpool because they could not even score until the 10th + 5 minutes. The first goal that was scored in the match was called in the 80th minute and it was an own goal from the Arsenal player. What actually we are you expecting when the meeting was between Arsenal and Liverpool, did you expect that Arsenal will be able to win Liverpool with three goals even in the first half? To be very honest with us, Arsenal their best but their best was not good enough to win the match for them and besides they did not play against any random English side rather they played against Liverpool which is a very big and top performing club in the English Premier League.
Now that Arsenal is eliminated from the FA cup it is an opportunity for them to focus only on one trophy and make sure that they do not go trophyless this season.

[AakZaki]

This December Arsenal is very unstable. In fact, they seem to have no energy at the end of the year. It seems Arteta is still very frustrated that early season transfer plans fell through. This is because Jurrien Timber and Thomas Partey were injured from the start of this season. They can't be a second choice to make the game different. In fact, it happened this December. It seems that Arsenal do have to be patient and they still have a chance to improve the team. Maybe Arteta can take advantage of this transfer market moment.

[Altryist]

It was not a problem for City to beat Huddersfield, for them it is a weak opponent with whom there were no problems. The positive news was the appearance of De Bruyne in the second match, this guy returned to the game and this will be a significant strengthening for the team.
Liverpool beat Arsenal with a score of 0:2, I won’t say that I expected such an outcome in this match, but nothing unexpected happened, Liverpool is now in excellent shape, and Arsenal’s last games show that they have problems, so everything ended as expected.

[Furious 7]

I think the performance in the FA Cup really depends on the squad's depth. Look at Chelsea, they got a very good squad depth coming from their academy. From their academy players like Armando Broja and Gallaghers were produced.  Look at Manchester City, they destroyed the other team.

In this case, I feel that it also depends on the intention and the target you want to achieve in the end.
Indeed, the depth of the squad is one of the strong benchmarks but on the other hand if in the end their targets and goals are not there then there will definitely be some rotations made because they don't really expect anything more for the FA Cup.

I mean when they are faced with some big competitions (for big clubs) like the Champions League competition, EPL and FA Cup sometimes for some big clubs it always tries to eliminate one of the competitions so that they are not too messed up with a busy schedule and so that players are not compelled to work harder and of course if something like that happens then the FA Cup is an option for them to eliminate the competition because after all they will not push further on this matter so that the depth of the squad can mean nothing if their goal is not in this competition except indeed for Chelsea where they have nothing to gain in the EPL then surely they will try to focus more on the FA Cup.

[CryptoBuds]

Arsenal are likely to lose 1-0 against Liverpool. In the 80th minute, defender Jakub Kiwior mistakenly put the ball into his own net. Such a mistake was not desirable in such an important match. I would say Arsenal were very unlucky.

If Klopp can, the EPL, FA cup and Europa League they should get but I know getting the treble trophy is difficult, so the important thing is the EPL trophy.

Klopp is not too serious about the FA Cup so far. That's what I felt after watching today's match. In the first half we saw a very good performance from Arsenal. Arsenal players dominated the match till 75 minutes. Liverpool played defensively today. But Liverpool stepped up their attack after Jakub Kiwior's own goal in the 80th minute. And after 90 minutes they scored another goal and won the match 2-0. Arsenal's performance was not bad but they failed to win. Liverpool went one step closer to winning the FA Cup title.

It seems that Arsenal do have to be patient and they still have a chance to improve the team. Maybe Arteta can take advantage of this transfer market moment.

It seems like there is no other choice for Arteta to stabilize Arsenal performance going forward, I think Arteta really needs to add one or two players to add depth to the squad. Liverpool defeat was very painful, because it happened at the expense of their own supporters, I thought previously the match would be a draw until the two rounds were over. Jakub Kiwior misanticipated Trent Alexander-Arnold free kick while the second goal was scored by Luis Diaz, Liverpool won dramatically even though Arsenal appeared to attack.

Arteta has a lot of work to do to bring Arsenal back to winning ways, their chances are still good enough to compete in the EPL and Champions League even though they have just been eliminated from the FA Cup. On the other hand, Liverpool are still unstoppable so far, I think Jurgen Klopp squad deserves to be favorites for the season in all competitions, in fact their performance is more stable than Manchester City.

[Marykeller]

The schedule is very busy for Arsenal and Liverpool because at the end of last year they met and only played a draw, but today they will still face each other in the FA Cup and also at the beginning of February they will still meet again in the EPL. This will definitely be an exciting battle for both teams and it is hoped that in whatever situation they will both be able to give their best performance.

But considering that previously both of them only played a draw, I am curious whether one of these teams will win or not in the FA Cup match later. I am quite sure that this time both of them will not remain silent and will want to play again in a draw like before so this will be a prestigious match for the two big teams to finish the previous match. For betting predictions, I recommend the BTTS option or over goal results only because it is very difficult to determine which one of them will win.

Maybe a draw will happen again, but if you remember the appearance of Arsenal lately, it looks like Liverpool is more likely to have a chance to win this match.
This is the FA Cup which is actually not more prestigious than the Premier League, but there is prestige that they will keep, especially they will also face each other in the Premier League later. Arsenal also don't want to lose again in a row, they will try to get the best possible results.
On the other hand Liverpool are also in good shape at the moment and they are better than Arsenal. Maybe this will be determined by Arsenal's own performance, whether they will play well or not, because it cannot be denied that their defeat in the previous match will damage their mentality.

The draw we expected the match to turn out to be, ended up being a win for Liverpool by 2 goals to nil against Arsenal. The Arsenal team really missed many chances in the first half as they dominated the match. It was in the second half around 80 minutes of play that Liverpool scored their first goal by an own goal from an Arsenal player and their second goal came around extra minutes of stoppage time.

It's unfortunate to see the Arsenal team leaving the FA Cup competition at this early stage, and they don't have any match to play in two weeks. They should use the two weeks, they won't be in action to fix their defense lapses so that they will be in full preparation when they play against Crystal Palace in two weeks because it seems like they no longer have that winning mentality to win a match

Manchester City defeated Huddersfield Town 5-0 at home.It wasn't a very difficult game for City because their opponent was too easy for them.They didn't need to push too hard considering it was a cup tie.
Leeds United, on the other hand, beat Peterborough 3-0 away from home.Although the opponent was in good form, Leeds were expected to win because of the quality difference.
One of the more surprising results was West Ham's draw at home to Bristol, which I think most expected West Ham to win.

West Ham played a truly surprising match. I'm sure no one thought Bristol would score or draw in this match.
While West Ham are performing quite well in the Premier League, I would expect them to play much better against a team in the lower league. But the skills or strength of the teams are not always sufficient, sometimes we can see such surprising results

[SUPERSAIAN]

This December Arsenal is very unstable. In fact, they seem to have no energy at the end of the year. It seems Arteta is still very frustrated that early season transfer plans fell through. This is because Jurrien Timber and Thomas Partey were injured from the start of this season. They can't be a second choice to make the game different. In fact, it happened this December. It seems that Arsenal do have to be patient and they still have a chance to improve the team. Maybe Arteta can take advantage of this transfer market moment.

The team should not suddenly lose their breath in the absence of only two players like Jurrien Timber and Thomas Partey. Once again, Arteta started the season perfectly for the team, and when we come to December, we see Arteta's Arsenal becoming stagnant.

For Liverpool today's win was very reassuring, for Arsenal it was a confidence and demoralizing result. Liverpool are playing better with each passing game and are defeating their tough opponents one by one.
