Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[ShowOff]

It’s been an interesting turn of event so far in the Newcastle vs Manchester City fixture. Where we have had the league favorites take the lead and in no time, lose that lead to Newcastle United. Manchester City has been ridden with errors after errors. Enderson had his round of errors before catching an injury and was substituted from the pitch, S. Ortega came in and you could see him making similar mistakes as Enderson.
Newcastle United continues to surprise me, some of there energy sterns from them having to play from a home side but, a part of me still tells me to be weary of Manchester United. You can’t really write them off and it would be interesting to see what changes Pep would bring on in the second half.

It was surprising because within a few minutes of the first half Newcastle reversed the score.
The second half has started and Pep Guardiola doesn't want Manchester City's defense to be as bad as the first half.

If Newcastle wins and they deserve to get past Manchester United. For me, that is the rule because Newcastle will have more points than Manchester United if they are able to win until the end. Considering that there are still 45 minutes left in the match, it is not certain that Newcastle will win and I want this match to end in a draw. In this second half, Pep will issue his best strategy for Manchester City players to practice.

No, Newcastle won't win if they don't change the way they play. There were a lot of players stacked in the defensive area which allowed Manchester City to explore some errors, but that's how ordinary teams beat the favorites. There was nothing good about the way Newcastle maintained their lead, so this must be exploited well by Manchester City.

Now De Bruyne has played and replaces Bernardo Silva. It is hoped that he can improve the quality of attacks and also be a solution to the difficulty of penetrating Newcastle's defense. Several missed chances so far and perhaps Manchester City should keep their psychology.

DE Bruyne came from injury and three minutes after his entrance he did something magical by equalizing the goal which all most all Manchester city strikers tried scoring but wasn't possible.

Manchester city has really missed DE Bruyne presence in the games and that was why they were not able to win consistently. I can say that hope has come back to Manchester city as it is possible for them to win Newcastle now that De Bruyne is in the game.

It is 2-2 draw now and I believe one side will score again to win the match.

[bitzizzix]

Kevin De Bruyne scored a goal in the 75th minute and only came on to replace Bernardo Silva in the 69th minute. And I saw that Kevin De Bruyne's kick was not too hard but accurate and made the score equal at 2-2, there was still time for both teams to score but it needed hard work.
However, I think Newcastle will prefer to defend and only take advantage of opportunities when counter-attacking.

[Oluwa-btc]

Manchester City will want to make the best of this game. Newcastle United are not in the best of forms, they have had two victories and five losses in the last seven games. Newcastle are the underdog in this match and I don’t think they stand a chance against Manchester City today unless football happens..

The game will surely be in the favour of Manchester city no matter what Newcastle united will going to display because, the hunger for Manchester city to win the game is in them despite they are meeting strong team today but it will not end up in draw 0:0.

 This is the home of Manchester city and they know how to use their home to play in a way their opponent will not have the luck to secure a single goal from Manchester city despite they are still facing the problem of injuries but they still have some players that will face Newcastle united and beat them 2:0 to achieve the 3 points.

It's few minutes since Kevin De Bruyne came into the game and he finally got to score to give them the equalizer. He's just come in to spoil the diamond shaped midfied created by these Newcastle United midfielder's.

It was a great and fine first half for Newcastle United, Isak made it look so beautiful amd lovely, people will want to blame Kyle Walker slacking but I don't think that was him causing it.
Gordon has now scored against them big sides, Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United and now Manchester City. Anticipating for the three points or sharing of points.

[rendravolt]

Manchester city are currently in a tight situation as they are currently behind against Newcastle away, I always believe in Manchester city ability to turn any game around but this particular game won't be that easy, the home support for Newcastle right now is off the roof and there is a lot of momentum in the Newcastle team.
It was a big mistake from Manchester city to give away the lead after taking the lead first.
Regardless I don't see Newcastle wining this encounter and I would rather say their best result is a draw.

Manchester City had just equalized the score at 2-2 and thanks to a goal from Kevin De Bruyne in the 74th minute, Manchester City's hopes of being able to turn things around were even more wide open. Now they are in a crucial minute because in less than 10 minutes the match will end and whoever can score one more goal will definitely be the winner.

I didn't expect Newcastle to be able to put pressure on Manchester City and we also know that this team is not doing well. But what they did is proof that they have not given up even against the defending champions last season. Now what we are waiting for is the final result and I am still curious about who will win this match and maybe this will be a surprise that is difficult to predict.

[Huppercase]

Chelsea's match against Fulham was quite fierce in the first half and Chelsea managed to take a 1 goal lead through the penalty point at the end of the first half.
Overall, Chelsea's performance is still not improving, especially Chelsea's front line which is not optimal in completing opportunities, but on the other hand, Fulham's performance is also quite bad in this match so Chelsea's chances of maintaining their lead or even adding goals in the second half are still quite large.
This should be a victory for Chelsea and they must win 3 points in order to continue to improve their position in the Premier League standings.

It was the aggressiveness for me. They are the home that invited Fulham but they are the ones with the most earned Yellow card in that match with 5:1 ratio against Fulham. If they not for that Penalty, they wouldn't have had anything to hedge upon but that lead goal in the early second half was what they used as thick wall to suspenf all attacks on Fulham and hence why they got more red of yellow card in the second half. I guess Pochettino has to be be careful in managing his players and the ones to start in the next match to avoid missing next round of matches.

With this little development from Chelsea, after many weeks of staying in one place, they really had to love from the table finally to stay ahead of Manchester United. This is a called for celebration for Chelsea fans but cry for Erik Ten Hag men because I don't know the kind fumes and insult that will be coming from their mouth tomorrow but if they manage to win Tottenham, then the damage can be fix easily.

[Hyphen(-)]

Kevin De Bruyne scored a goal in the 75th minute and only came on to replace Bernardo Silva in the 69th minute. And I saw that Kevin De Bruyne's kick was not too hard but accurate and made the score equal at 2-2, there was still time for both teams to score but it needed hard work.
However, I think Newcastle will prefer to defend and only take advantage of opportunities when counter-attacking.

Kevin De Bruyne’s comeback in the Premier League will be a good one for Manchester City, he is an important player in the team because his presence in the team mean a lot and he has just scored the equalizer for Manchester City just five minutes after his comeback from injury; this is a good news for Manchester City because without him today, they will struggle in this match since  Haaland is not in the match.

Nevertheless, Newcastle United can defend the match till the end even though it will be hard because Manchester City is now putting too much pressure in the game because they really don’t wants to draw the match.

[tusandii]

Maybe if Fulham is the host of the match, I think it makes sense if it is possible to hold a draw or even beat Chelsea because Fulham is always very strong when playing at home, as we saw they could beat Arsenal at that time and this time there could be a draw because there are many Once a Chelsea player was injured but it doesn't rule out the possibility that it could end in a draw because Chelsea appear very inconsistent sometimes very strong at home sometimes look very weak and this time I bet on another option maybe on a more comfortable handicap and for my current predictions the match will end with a score of over 2.5
It is important to remember that playing away or at home is very influential because football players become more enthusiastic and confident when competing at home when the fans provide encouragement and if it is only a temporary prediction, there is a small possibility that Chelsea can win by a narrow score.

I agree, with Fulham is not bad side but in Premier League they have no win into their last five games with just one draw, and they also never won against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge even they never score any goal against them in last five Premier League games also give huge advantage to host club and I have feeling most chances today Chelsea will be able to win and keep things at the better level with confidence level will also improve even this is not guaranteed for their consistency and having better results in away games.

But, as things are going we will be having some improvement in their performance which is good sign, and recently we have too much criticism against Pochettino, but peoples not check ground realities how he is trying to bring back things it's still not easy but most chances they will be done better.

My prediction was almost right because Chelsea was able to win because they were lucky to get a penalty kick and previously I predicted the match could end in a draw, but my prediction was wrong, the score was over 2.5, not over 2.5.
I admit that in today match Chelsea were able to strengthen their defense and were able to score a win even though it was like luck, but I really appreciate chelsea performance today.

[Woodie]

Talk about a De Bruyne comeback and steal of a big result from Newcastle,what a game!!

Honestly, I think Newcastle were too comfortable with their 2 goals lead and thought they would get to the finish line but Pep and team had a different plan and got the job done to get maximum points away from home thanks to their persistent pressure on their opponents. With this big result, they move second while trailing league leaders Liverpool and I expect them to keep the Reds in their sight till they mess up...

Kevin De Bruyne scored a goal in the 75th minute and only came on to replace Bernardo Silva in the 69th minute. And I saw that Kevin De Bruyne's kick was not too hard but accurate and made the score equal at 2-2, there was still time for both teams to score but it needed hard work.
However, I think Newcastle will prefer to defend and only take advantage of opportunities when counter-attacking.

These guys had a poor second half as compared to the first half and were reluctant to attack..poor approach tbh and deserve to love 

[bitvalak]

De Bruyne's entry made the difference in the game and scored the equalizer in the 74th minute.
After that Man City's attack was more aggressive which forced Newcastle to pile up a lot of players in defense.
The ball is always directed at De Bruyne to create opportunities, on the other hand, Newcastle is just waiting for a counter attack to create opportunities.
City's victory moved them up to 2nd place in the EPL standings. Only 2 points difference from Liverpool. De Bruyne's entry really changed the situation which had a big influence on Man City's victory today.

DE Bruyne is truly back. This was really a shocking goal that surprised a lot of people, including me, because the game is going in a hot hand with Newcastle, although the game is still ongoing, so the victory most likely would be for a single term between the two of them, which is either Manchester City or Newcastle.
 
Although, to me, Manchester City are doing well in the game so far, you can’t say since the game is still ongoing that Newcastle are also trying their best. Since football is unpredictable, nothing can be said now because the match might end in a draw; that is just the game.
 
 I just noticed that Manchester City has added one more goal, making the score 2–3. I can say this is the winning goal because it is almost the end of the game, but Newcastle can still score even though it is in the last minute of the game, so we are going to continue watching the game.

[Pokapoka124]

Never say never in football. It’s full time and Manchester wins Newcastle United by narrow margin 2-3.

I don’t know why Manchester City always struggle against Newcastle United. I said it before the game, Newcastle has no chance of winning unless football happens (element of surprise) but watching the game, it seemed Manchester City were the underdogs in this feature. They were lucky to get a last minute goal to secure the win.

Kevin De Bruyne’s comeback in the Premier League will be a good one for Manchester City, he is an important player in the team because his presence in the team mean a lot and he has just scored the equalizer for Manchester City just five minutes after his comeback from injury; this is a good news for Manchester City because without him today, they will struggle in this match since  Haaland is not in the match.

Nevertheless, Newcastle United can defend the match till the end even though it will be hard because Manchester City is now putting too much pressure in the game because they really don’t wants to draw the match.

The match ended with a score of 3-2 in favor of Man City, Oscar Bobb, who came on to replace Doku, managed to score a goal in the added minute of time. A very dramatic match, and De Bruyne again proved that he is the heart of City game. I thought previously this match would end in a draw, Pep decision to rotate players proved to be effective, he is truly a genius at reading the situation.

For the time being, the additional 3 points put Man City in second place in the standings, 2 points behind Liverpool. Newcastle again suffered 3 defeats in a row, and is now ranked 10th in the standings. However, I admit that Newcastle managed to put up a good fight, but they were unlucky when it came to the final whistle. On the other hand, it is very likely that Aston Villa will again shift City position tomorrow, if Everton succeeds in forcing a draw then City will be at an advantage in the current competition.

Kevin De Bruyne, yes that's him. 1 goal and 1 assist made Manchester City take the lead in the second half and it was something special when he got playing minutes. As I said, Newcastle will not win the game when they are just intent on defending completely throughout the second half and fortunately Manchester City really took their chances well.

The entry of Kevin De Bruyne brought many changes to Manchester City's game as a whole. He is a leader or field general who can make the team play more focused and calm. Evidently, he was able to change the course of the match and recorded 1 assist and 1 goal to win 3 points from Newcastle.

Kevin De Bruyne's effect has earned Manchester City the whole 3 points against Newcastle United, and Manchester City has entered second place in the Premier League table. With the 2-3 defeat against Newcastle United, Manchester City has recorded a third consecutive win in the premier league.

[QueenVera]

Chelsea really seemed to have difficulty maintaining the 1 goal lead they had obtained at the end of the first half from a penalty kick. It is indeed very sad to see Chelsea having to fight so hard to beat Fullham. Even without the opportunity for a penalty kick, this match would probably only end in a draw.

But still I am happy with the victory achieved by Chelsea in this match. Because no matter how good a squad a club has, they will only be considered good if they succeed in winning the match. If they have quality but don't win then it's a waste. So I appreciate Chelsea even though they had to fight harder but in the end they were able to win.

And I also hope that Chelsea can continue to get good results in the next matches. But in the EPL, it looks like Chelsea will have difficulties in the next match and might lose points. Because what they will face is Liverpool. And Liverpool are in the best condition this season. But in the match against Chelsea, it looks like Liverpool will still play without M. Salah. But still Liverpool without M. Salah is still better than Chelsea.

Well Fulham are Chelsea’s West London Rivals and yes the intensity in the match was expected. Fulham are a pretty good team and they’re in the semis of the Carabao cup. Chelsea aren’t really good so the struggle they had was expected to an extent. Though we must commend them for being able to maintain the lead and take home all 3 points.

 Onto the next match, Liverpool who are without star man, Salah. I think Chelsea would try to get something off this match especially as we’ve seen how they turn up and play big teams so well. Well Chelsea will really need some serious work to do so as to be able to get something off Liverpool who are league leaders. Also I think without their key player the Liverpool is still going to be very strong and tough.

[Docnaster]

Just like I predicted, Manchester City still fought back into the game and it is the big man Kelvin De Bruyne that rose up to the big occasion. Like I earlier said, Pep Guardiola isn't new to high expecting games like the one they played against Newcastle tonight. He knew what the team really needed to come back to life again and that was why Kelvin De Bruyne was introduced which the Belgian came on and did what he knows how to do best.

[Pokapoka124]

Last season, Arsenal lost the title narrowly and this season they may lose their shot at the title again because of injuries. Arsenal is lacking squad depth. They do not have enough options on the bench, Trossard is not in form, Saka is fatigued, Martinelli is also not in form. For a team that is contending for the league title, they need to go to the market and strengthen their squad. Arteta need to get a goal scorer and an attacking midfielder. They need to do a lot of recruitment to fill in those positions. It will be a very big problem for the Arsenal side if they do not make these moves.

[Fiatless]

Chelsea really seemed to have difficulty maintaining the 1 goal lead they had obtained at the end of the first half from a penalty kick. It is indeed very sad to see Chelsea having to fight so hard to beat Fullham. Even without the opportunity for a penalty kick, this match would probably only end in a draw.

The good news about the game is that Chelsea secured three points that have moved them to eighth position. Yeah, the penalty was the only saving grace that the Blues had but we should also accept that they also created some great opportunities that would have extended the lead. I don't think that we should underrate any team in the premier league because all of them have what it takes to give a big team a fight. However, Chelsea should count themselves lucky to have a goalkeeper like Djordje Petrovic for several saves he made.

But still I am happy with the victory achieved by Chelsea in this match. Because no matter how good a squad a club has, they will only be considered good if they succeed in winning the match. If they have quality but don't win then it's a waste. So I appreciate Chelsea even though they had to fight harder but in the end they were able to win.

This win was a great relief to coach Mauricio Pochettino and the entire team. It brings some level of hope that Chelsea can at least make it to the top four position. Beautiful football is not necessarily, what clubs need is good results and that is exactly what Chelsea got today.

And I also hope that Chelsea can continue to get good results in the next matches. But in the EPL, it looks like Chelsea will have difficulties in the next match and might lose points. Because what they will face is Liverpool. And Liverpool are in the best condition this season. But in the match against Chelsea, it looks like Liverpool will still play without M. Salah. But still Liverpool without M. Salah is still better than Chelsea.

The Blues' performance has been inconsistent and you cannot predict their games. Chelsea's last game against Liverpool ended in a draw and I can assume that Chelsea has improved more than their first encounter. Liverpool is also in great form which could make the game difficult to predict. However, Liverpool remains the favorite to win the game.

He knew what the team really needed to come back to life again and that was why Kelvin De Bruyne was introduced which the Belgian came on and did what he knows how to do best.

The two substitutes made by Pep brought a difference to the game, and City key player behind the success of the club, Kelvin De Bruyne came in and turn the game around from one goal down to 3-2 victory. It will be a sad one for Newcastle who tried their best to see if they could win the match, but they got disappointed as they couldn't even share points.

Manchester city must have come back to their winning form as the only man who is their strength is back from injury, and he showed how important he is to the club today. De Bryne is back and City is back to their feet.
