Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Jatiluhung]

I mean I wouldn't be too mad at them for losing to Liverpool. People are overreacting a bit, sure they have lost a few games in a row now and that is why people are reacting so badly, but THIS one is not really a shock, they played against Liverpool and Liverpool is by far one of the best teams of entire premier league in the last 10 years, only beaten by City, when you lost to second best team of the last 10 years in a nation, that shouldn't really be a big deal at all, I think that's normal.

Arsenal is getting better, they are a respectable team, and they are going to probably be better and better with team, they just hit a rock now and having trouble but with time I am sure that they are going to get better.

Experiencing defeat by Liverpool in the FA Cup is quite normal. And we shouldn't be surprised by these results. In fact, Arsenal actually dominated the game quite well in this match from the start. But I also understand the disappointment that many people complained about Arsenal in that match. Because Arsenal actually almost scored a goal in the early minutes of the match. But they wasted it. And it happened not once but several times. It was as if the Arsenal players were very nervous in the match and were not confident in executing a shot or finishing. Maybe the disappointment is more this way from my point of view. Since the start, Liverpool have actually been under quite a lot of pressure from the Arsenal players, but yeah, it's a little annoying to see opportunities wasted. Their Arsenal squad is nervous because the opponent they face is one of the best EPL teams, namely Liverpool. So I also feel this is normal. I hope that in the next match Arsenal can do better. Because currently Arsenal is also almost eliminated from the top 4 rankings. If they continue to get bad results then the top 4 ranking will belong to another team.

Chelsea was very unlucky during this season and luck was not the only thing they needed but Chelsea's player, Christopher Nkunku is again injured and he will be away for at least three weeks. This means this team will have an even worse situation.
The player joined Chelsea for 63 million euros but Christopher Nkunku couldn't play in more than four games for Chelsea.

This is clearly bad news for Chelsea and their fans. Nkunku was only fit in mid-December after suffering a knee injury in August. The appearance of Christopher Nkunku brings a lot of hope to Chelsea football fans. They have reason to believe because the French attacker has had impressive performances in the Bundesliga and Champions League for many years. With the responsibility of shouldering the offensive line of this team. He also performed well every time he took the field. But if bad luck continues to hold Nkunku back, coach Mauricio Pochettino will be forced to find another solution. Pochettino may have to use Armando Broja. Hopefully, Nkunku will not be too seriously injured and will return soon. Chelsea also misses many other stars in the first team due to injury.

Bad news for Chelsea with Christopher Nkunku injury and will absent for weeks later, just awhile recovery from long term injury and right now Chelsea have losses him again is very bad moment due Chelsea still fight to move higher position standings in Premier League.
Since joined with Chelsea last season, Christopher Nkunku most often get injury and this season have three appearance with Chelsea and scoring one goal in Premier League, its now worth yet with how much money spending by Chelsea around 63 million euro for sign him and have to see him most absent due injury.
Chelsea have take advantage with winter transfer window opening many days left to find news striker, although have Nicolas Jackson scored 7 goals in premier league seems not enough and they still need one back up striker.

Is been a long while since we saw Manchester United in action and against Wigan is it still going to be another complain in the FA CUP till the kick off of the EPL? UNITED will be without their shot stopper Onana and this will give the second choice a chance to prove himself and maybe the best option for ETH, that's if he'd like to drop Onana when he gets back from AFCON.
Wigan are a lower division team in this encounter against Man UTD but that doesn't mean they won't make it hard for the red devils to struggle as usual, this game is suppose to be a training session for Manchester United ahead of the EPL game. But it seems like they might struggle to get things together and to me if Man UTD don't have full control over this game and dominate it from the first half to the end then I don't see anything positive coming out from them this season any more.

A big risk that Chelsea took when they chose Nkunku, since he was brought in he has had injury problems and this purchase was considered a waste. Surprisingly Pochettino still says he is optimistic about Nkunku contribution in the future. I don't wish for something that hasn't happened yet but this season Chelsea clearly cannot be trusted to be able to finish in the top 5. At the top of the standings Chelsea must accept the fact that their playing conditions are poor and that cannot be denied by Pochettino.

I also don't think Arsenal didn't do well against me and they played quite well. It's just that after suffering a crushing defeat to West Ham at home with a score of 0-2, Arsenal were only able to dominate the game and also got lots of opportunities but had difficulty scoring goals.
And this is what I think Mikel Arteta must improve for the next match, and in the next match in the EPL Arsenal will face Crystal Palace. Even though Crystal Palace is ranked 14th in the standings, they are an opposing team that should not be underestimated and Arsenal must be able to return to their best performance and win the match. If not, their fourth position will be taken by Tottenham.

No one would call it a surprising result as Liverpool is performing better than Arsenal on the league as well. The knockout match was surely a very competitive one. Both of the team performed well but it was Liverpool who succeeded in scoring. This loss on the home grounds of Arsenal would surely be a sad one for its fans. There are some surprises on the 3rd round but on overall, we are going to see the top teams in 4th round.

Sometimes it doesn't need to be a team that controls the game to be the winner and Liverpool managed to perfectly beat Arsenal who controlled the game even though some of the players who became the foundation of Liverpool could not strengthen the team, but it didn't really affect their game.
Losing to Liverpool made Arsenal suffer three consecutive defeats in all competitions, and that's not good enough for Arteta because it will make it even more difficult for them to compete in the title race as well as in the Champions League, because it means there is a problem in terms of them maintaining consistency and Arsenal will be like last season very good at the beginning of the season but slowly they failed in many matches.

[Pokapoka124]

Liverpool are doing so well this season, it’s no surprise that they are currently leading in the league table. Like many others, I also expected a strong game similar to the last encounter but seeing the line up I knew it would be one of those games Arsenal will struggle to get goals and that is exactly what it was. Congratulations to Klopp and his team as they progress to the next rounds.

[dzungmobile]

Sometimes it doesn't need to be a team that controls the game to be the winner and Liverpool managed to perfectly beat Arsenal who controlled the game even though some of the players who became the foundation of Liverpool could not strengthen the team, but it didn't really affect their game.

Liverpool again aim at multiple titles in a season but they have to cleverly adjust their main targes and probably have to make decision to sacrifice one or two targets. It will be better if at the season ending, they manage to lift one tropglhy than end as a runner up in two or three competitions.

Arsenal don't have good performances recently and they are similar to Liverpool, must pick priority for second half of season. Else they will end this season with nothing while their players can get exhausted and injuries. This if happens, will affect their club preparation for a next season as well.

Losing to Liverpool, a strong opponent, is not too bad and if Arsenal can use this defeat to focus more on Premier League, it is not too bad change for them.

in the end who score more goals wins the match, we have seen similar cases were Chelsea dominate matches this season even with good open chances which they fail to convert and still lost the match.

I don't Arsenal will be having any title just like last season, they are too inconsistent for the champions league and Epl. Though I can't predict who will win the champions league now but I can say either Man City or Liverpool has the league this season. At the end of the season it will be hit for Arteta since Arsenal has given him enough time but he still hasn't been able to get trophies even the usual trophy they usually get in their bad seasons (FA Cup) they have failed to win it even when they doing better now

I always have the feeling that if Nkunku will perform well at Chelsea then he will be an injury prune player I guess we all are seeing it, only a miracle can turn this around. If only James and Nkunku can just be totally fit again things would be much more better at Chelsea while I don't really know what to say about Latvia now

[Leviathan.007]

We all know Kevin De Bruyne is a perfect player and had a huge effect on Manchester City when he was in the good form, also he had a perfect performance in the recent game when he backed in the field but even if Kevin De Bruyne is a good player I think Mancsher City should not be thing much depended to this palyer and they should have good performance even without Kevin De Bruyne if he is injured and not in the good form.
The performance of Kevin De Bruyne even makes Guardiola to start talking about him after the game.

[X-ray]

Arsenal have lost one of their hopes of winning a trophy this season because they were eliminated by Liverpool in today match. Of course the fans are quite disappointed with the results of today match but it must be admitted that Liverpool is more consistent than Arsenal. Even in the Premier League, Arsenal also had to give up their main place for Liverpool and I think Liverpool has really frustrated Arsenal this season.

Well, if Arsenal lose again in the epl match, they will automatically give up even more on winning the trophy this season. I think Arteta has to change Arsenal playing tactics to be better in the next match. He has to raise Arsenal enthusiasm to end the recent series of bad results.

Arsenal have experienced bad results both in the FA Cup and in the EPL. Losing to Liverpool might not be that embarrassing because Liverpool is indeed a very strong team this season. But I am very disappointed with Arsenal who lost to Fullham in the EPL. I feel that the Arsenal players' mentality is slowly starting to decline. And this makes Arsenal have a declining performance. Especially in their attack line. They always fail to convert shots into goals. Very often the opportunities they get only end in failure. Arteta must immediately address this. Because if Arsenal's weakness in attack is not immediately corrected, Arsenal will only end up not getting anything this season. In fact, now the difference between Arsenal and Liverpool in the EPL has also widened to a difference of 5 points. Arsenal's opportunity may indeed end if they fail to get full points in the next match in the EPL. Arsenal's hopes may be in the Champions League which will be even more difficult. With Arsenal's current performance, I'm even starting to doubt them in the last 16 of the UCL. Even though I have seen Arsenal become a strong team since the start of the season. But it is very unfortunate that in the middle of this season Arsenal experienced quite a drastic setback.

Asenal's current problem is the accuracy of the final settlement. they performed quite well at the start of the season, but now they are experiencing problems with declining performance. The last 3 matches without a win are clearly a blow to Arteta's squad. he had to immediately make a plan to awaken his players' mentality.
It's still not too late to catch up on the points difference with Liverpool. but if he loses 1 or 2 more games, maybe Arsenal will have to forget about chasing Liverpool at the top.

Arsenal is finished and this club will get nothing this season. Im feeling so happy liverpool was just destroying arsenal. Liverpudlians are starting to yelling it. Arsenal fans shall be blaming arteta caused by this is his mistake.
The club is going down again like what it used to be last season and im very happy caused by arsenal out from top 16 of FA cup. The club can put more focus on to the other competition like UCL and EPL which is potentially bottling it as well.
This is the main problem that needs to be sorted out by arsenal as soon as possible. I kinda feel that if arsenal will be trophyless again this season caused by the club was not seriously building its winning mentality. Arsenal can't even keep up with it.
Im doubting the performance from the club in EPL caused by the bad result in FA cup makes it clear if arsenal has no winning mentality and no doubt that if people were no putting arsenal to win EPL again this season.
The current season is owning by manchester city and liverpool. These clubs are the strongest candidate to win EPL.

I think Kelvin De Bruyne has been missed so much in the team. His absence had a huge impact on the team’s performance. The statistics of games won and lost in his absence just shows how important he is in the team. Sits no surprise that Pep Guardiola brought him into the pitch in yesterday’s game against Huddersfield. I think KDB hasn’t lost his fitness level and did well in the game.

This is a very bad news for Chelsea and their fans. Since Nkunku joined Chelsea this season, he has not played up to 5 matches for the team. Could this be another Hazard situation that left Chelsea to join Real Madrid and his career began to fall? This is so sad for Nkunku because he is a great player that wants to showcase his talent and ability but injury is killing him now. He was not an injury prone player when he was playing for RB Leipzig at the time. Three weeks is not much as compared to the past injuries he has went on, I just hope this will be the last time for him to go for such injury in his career at Chelsea.

For a player like Kevin De Bruyne, he won’t lose a lot of fitness since he last played football. Pep Guardiola might has just tested him in that game to see how his performance and fitness level is before using him in big matches. Kevin De Bruyne return will be a boost to Manchester City. Now that he his back, I don’t think that anyone can stop Manchester City from winning the league. Those teams in top have a very serious and important task to do for Manchester City not to beat them to that position.

[Arenga pinnata]

It's something to be upset over because if you had seen the game, many had felt Arsenal were the side with the chance of winning the game but I guess Arteta needs to go back to the drawing board and fix the problem.
 The annoying thing is that from the beginning of the game, the Gunners played with so much confidence and precision that at a point Liverpool began getting wary but I won't be surprised too if Jurgen Klopp's men were just smiling inside, biding their time and waiting for an opportunity which came in the form of Kiwior's own goal late into the second half.
 For me it's quite embarrassing that Liverpool can cause an upset both at their home and away and if they were regarding the Gunners with a bit of respect, this performance may have sure dwindled it a bit. My fear for Arsenal now is of they can be easily pulled out of not so heavy competitions like this, I wonder if they'd survive in the champions league.

It's not just you who are starting to think whether Arsenal will be okay with their current performance in preparation for the Champions League later. Because actually the strength of Arsenal's back and midfield is quite impressive. Even their front line always seems to be able to make things difficult for their opponents. Even Liverpool in yesterday's match looked overwhelmed from the first half. Because Arsenal continuously made attacks which always almost endangered Liverpool's goal. But what is very disappointing is that Arsenal's attacks always endanger the opponent's goal but that's all. Well poor finishing is the only problem in Arsenal's current squad. Arteta has actually created a good strategy that can always pressure opponents. But I think the problem here is with the players themselves. They are quite bad because they always fail to take advantage of opportunities. So Arteta's task in this case may only be to convince the front line players to be able to play more confidently.

Their overall performances have not been bad,but the problem they have is inability to convert chances into goals.They got so many chances that they couldn't convert yesterday,they got more than six clear chances to score in the first half,but they didn't covert any of those chances into goals.If Arsenal keep playing like this,they will not even qualify for champions league next season.Arteta is very stubborn,he doesn't listen to what people say,he thinks all he says or knows is the best, forgeting that giving deaf ears to what  experienced People say is the beginning of failure.

The performance of Kevin De Bruyne even makes Guardiola to start talking about him after the game.

It seems like what we have seen Kevin de Bruyne has been absent for almost half the season or more precisely, he missed the first half of the season and of course Manchester City were able to balance their strengths when they were not strengthened by Kevin de Bruyne. Thus, I think Manchester City does not depend on one player at all because the characteristics of Pep Guardiola strategy can be seen that he is able to make the players who play able to perform at their best in every match they play.

Apart from that, Kevin De Bruyne return was not only warmly welcomed by fans, but Pep Guardiola was also so happy that he was back, even in his first match after a long absence, Kevin was immediately able to make an assist. Of course, his performance has not decreased even though he has been absent for quite a long time, but he still seems to be performing at his best. Manchester City can take advantage of additional strength since Kevin rejoined, where they have to focus on winning every EPL match in order to be able to stick closely to Liverpool, who currently leads the standings.

Any mediocre opponents doesn't stand any slight opportunity of winning Manchester City. Huddersfield is not classified as any top threat for Manchester City, thrashing them 5-0 was deserving on Citizen ends. The fitness level of City is balance and there's certainly no room to create doubt for them. Kelvin De Bruyne have returned, let's start counting our fingers because the Belgium midfielder have become one of the promising player in Manchester City. If he's not present in matches, he's team lacks the efficiency to win matches though they're trying so hard to enable themselves become a formidable team and this can only be build around top angles.

He'll be back better and stronger, if you play soccer and have such challenges ( Knee Injury ) a
Immediately after your return from surgery and recovery process, you may likely go out Injured again. And this is exactly what has happened with Christopher Nkuku. He'll be back most definitely. There's nothing to worry about, its just sad he'll miss important games once again.

Manchester United tonight haven't been displaced from this round before, so expecting Manchester United to lose will definitely not happen. Andrea Onana won't be leaving already for the African Cup of Nations Competitions, he'll be around until the 14 of January..

I agree with you, in fact Chelsea cannot deny that their performance both last season and now shows bad results. Like it or not, we are still discussing facts that are quite bitter in the eyes of Chelsea fans. The instability of player and coach strategies raises many doubts. It does not rule out the possibility of being dragged further away from the top 10 positions. This is clearly a big challenge for the Blues to stake their reputation as a monster English team who lost  a lot of momentum to collect points and secure their position. Last season they managed to finish in 12th position, which is a bad record after qualifying for the 2021/22 UCL season.

This pretty much completely describes the issues they have. It is all about lost momentum although the word could be misleading as it contains the word "moment". But we are not witnessing a moment of weakness here anymore. We are witnessing years of weakness. That's the craziest part about Chelsea, a title winner in the Champions League not too long ago equipped with an infinite source of money (apparently, so far) and yet they are more fighting against getting dragged into the last 10 in the table than they are fighting for getting into the upper part of the table. That's one of the most failed investments I have seen so far. PSG does at least win the domestic league with their billions in investments, but what the heck is Chelsea doing?
