Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[udidrone]

Manchester United's weakness is that they are always unable to maintain their lead because they are always easily pressed after getting a quick goal. The defense was quite problematic in the match against Tottenham because the players were unable to close down the opponent's movement space and even the two goals that were scored could have been anticipated if Richarlison was guarded well and did not easily head the ball. The second goal was much more ridiculous because it was conceded without any guard from the defender so Bentancur easily scored.

Just as I said before Manchester United's main obstacle was defense if we check the standings and goal records then we will see Manchester conceding more than scoring goal  24 scored and 29 conceded, this is a concrete proof that their defense is very bad and has never happened before. Ten Hag and management must take quick action if they still want to compete in the top 5 there is still time to fix it. Manchester United have gone through 5 matches with 2 defeats 2 draws and one win nothing can be relied upon in this record while Chelsea who previously played badly were now come back with satisfying results.

Man United's performance is difficult to predict, but most of them always play badly. Especially Onana's blunders, a ball that should have been easy to anticipate but instead he failed.
Likewise in the middle, Bruno did not have a significant impact. I wonder why ETH can give him the confidence to be team captain, even though there are still several players who are tracking to become captain and can make a difference.

In terms of Tottenham's game they were better, they were just unlucky because of the 6 shots on goal only 2 resulted in goals.
Without Son's presence, it would have a very significant impact. Timo Werner making his debut with this assist is enough to prove that he can still compete in the EPL.

Tottenham were much more dominant because they managed to attack and control the game, but luck was not with them because they missed several opportunities even though they were facing the goalkeeper directly. Manchester United's midfield was also completely invisible because it failed to carry out its duties and not many passes were even given to the attackers.

@ancafe Manchester United once again didn’t have any playing style and with the new owner wartching I’m sure he’ll be telling Ten Hag improve or walk out because I’m sincerely hoping he doesn’t tolerate such performances and sells non performing player’s in the summer. Also with Onana leaving I’m waiting to see who’ll keep for Manchester United or will they go back to the transfer window and buy a new goal keeper?

Haaland and Salah are both at 14 goals.

Momo will skip games during this month for the African cup, for this reason it will be even easier for Haaland winning the goal leaderboard this season.

Currently the two players are topping the charts for English Premier League top scorer and since they're currently absent in the league, question have been raised about who will win the English golden boot between the two players at the end of the season. Mohammed Salah is currently playing for his national team in the African Cup Of Nations and should his country reach the final, he's only expected to be back in the English Premier League by second week of February. Erling Haaland is currently injured and expected to be back in one or two weeks time.

The two players have the qualities and capabilities of winning the golden boot but if you should ask me , I think Erling Haaland will win it ahead of Salah.

Although he recently suffered an injury that forced him to sit out and watch his teammates win the FIFA World Cup in Saudi Arabia, Haaland is still the name on the list of top scorers in the Premier League this season. He promises to come back strongly in the coming matches. Most defenses of teams in the Premier League have yet to find a way to prevent Haaland from scoring. Haaland benefits much more than Mohamed Salah because he has many teammates around him who are ready to help him score goals in matches. The combination of Kevin de Bruyne and Erling Haaland will not be surprising when Erling Haaland will win the golden shoe this season.
But if the Norwegian striker cannot compete in the next 3 rounds, he can ultimately be surpassed by Mohamed Salah and Son Heung Min.

Manchester United's midfield was also completely invisible because it failed to carry out its duties and not many passes were even given to the attackers.

Manchester United conceded too easily because they couldn't maintain their defense well even though Manchester United took the lead in the first minute but Manchester United sometimes couldn't focus on attacking and maintaining defense until they ended up making blunders which led to mistakes and in the end Tottenham were able to equalize in 19 minutes. Although Manchester United were able to increase their total goals to 2 goals in the first half, but in the end Tottenham were able to equalize because Manchester United were a little careless at the start of the second half, this lack of focus is what caused Manchester United to continue experiencing difficulties.

Even though they only shared points, this was not a bad result for Tottenham because they were able to provide fierce resistance and made things difficult for the home team until in the end Manchester United failed to make good use of home advantage and were only able to get 1 point.

[bitcampaign]

They can still go down to 8th in the table, which isn't great. In fact, the fact that they ended the match in a draw I consider it lucky for them, because looking at the match stats Tottenham completely dominated the match, I don't even understand how MU managed to score two goals.

Slightly disappointed with the final result in last night's match, Man United could not stop Tottenham's game which made the result a draw, there were many mistakes in Man United's back line in the second goal which was created by Rodrigo Bentancur in the final minutes of the first half, it seemed free without the defender's obstruction. from Man United it was just silent when Rodrigo Bentancur got the ball in front of the goal and it was easy to score, even though a draw doesn't mean this game is much better but there is a lot of work for Man United to improve their squad in the next match, so that they can get full points in every match he plays later..

[piebeyb]

Even though they only shared points, this was not a bad result for Tottenham because they were able to provide fierce resistance and made things difficult for the home team until in the end Manchester United failed to make good use of home advantage and were only able to get 1 point.

Without Son Heung Min Tottenham could have played well, what if he had played in last night's match of course there would have been a difference in the final result, Manchester United really failed to take advantage of this opportunity where they should have been able to get full points playing at home but instead they shared points with Tottenham , clearly this is another bad result obtained by Manchester United, it is increasingly difficult to catch up and Manchester United has to settle for being in 7th position.

Obviously this is not a bad result for Tottenham and even with a draw this is enough to prove that they are not easy to beat even though without an important player in their front line Son Heung Min, they were able to show their best game and managed to keep up with Manchester United's game and even statistically Tottenham controlled almost 64% of the ball possession during the match until the end. it was a good effort Tottenham played optimally.

It's gladdens me to see that partnership of  Lisandro Martinez and Rapheal Varane back, though Manchester United have to invest in a defender a younger one than Rapheal Varane in the long run.. Manchester United lacked that Lisandro Martinez vibes, did you see his in between the line pass to link up Bruno Fernandez from the defense? They've finally had their man back. They'll fix things up before the next game they'll play.

Give Tottenham Hotspur their flowers you get me? They played well and also Timo Werner did well on his debut, I'd rate him a seven over ten though for his performance.

Newcastle is having a bad time and it is probably quite a while ago that they were so bad for the last time. It is now four games lost in a row and looking at the table shows that they are now getting closer to having no chance to qualify for the UEFA tournaments. I think even the Conference League would be a very bad result for them.

Newcastle has really been declining this season. A four-game losing streak is never easy, and it does raise concerns, when they were a top four team last season. The threat of missing out on UEFA tournaments looms large, and even securing a spot in the Conference League might be a disappointing outcome for the team and its fans.

It's crucial for Newcastle to regroup, analyze their performances, and work on improving their strategies. Eddie Howe can't keep playing with the same attitude as underdog, because teams already know how they play. But the season is long, and there's still an opportunity to turn things around. Fans often ride the rollercoaster of emotions that come with supporting a team, and while the current situation is challenging, there's always hope for a positive change in form.

I think they lost their self-confidence and the lightness that they played their football with. Newcastle was a surprise team and now they were literally brought back down to earth when they lost the Champions League group stage like that. Only 5 points was a big disappointment for them. In my view Newcastle was the stronger team in both games against Dortmund and yet they ended up losing both of those games. They could now lose it all in a very short period of time if they fail to win against Fulham in the FA Cup. It is a game away from home and actually the last competition they have a chance to achieve something.

I see that they played worse than last year. They managed to dominate the game against Borussia Dortmund, but they could not win at the end of the match. They played well in both matches but could not achieve the result. It's been a bad season for Newcastle and they couldn't get what they wanted in the Premier League. Let's see if they can recruit people who will contribute to the team in this transfer period.

For me I think their champions league defeat was due to the fact that they lack the experience that was needed to seal all the supposed match they had chances of winning. Newcastle were indeed expected  to have more than what they displayed in their champions league campaign and ever since their controversial last game against ac Milan they have struggled to even secure a win and I just think that their moral has been smitten and the team needs to get their self together.

[Strongkored]

I thought this would be Manchester United's 11th win after leading in the first half, but they failed to maintain their lead and only got one point.
If we look at the goal statistics, Manchester United is quite bad even though they are in seventh place in the standings because they conceded more goals than they scored, this is homework for Ten Haag because not only is their defense bad but their front line is also bad and they are the team with the fewest goals among the top 10 teams.
Ten Haag is like a coach who has failed this season, and Manchester United's only chance of becoming champions is in the FA Cup but even that will not be an easy championship for United to lift the trophy so there is a big chance that Manchester United will be without a title this season.

[FanEagle]

To be honest even though the standings are close enough, the point difference between United and Spurs is not that little, they have only West Ham between them, but in reality they have 8 points difference between them, which is very big if you ask me.

So, United managing to get a tie in this game the way they did, I think that's actually a good situation and shouldn't be a problem for them. I know that United fans are eager to see their team get better, but so far this season I do not think that would be possible, it feels like it is going to take a while. I believe that the best we can do at this moment would be just focusing on not doing all that terrible, pass West Ham if you can, and just stay there hoping for the best until the end.

[Justbillywitt]

Manchester united is poor in defense and this second half willnot be in their favor from the look of things. This is because Tottenham have decided to come with the determination of winning the match, because they have seen that Manchester united is very weak

Manchester United's fans were always let down.

I don't know if the fans of Manchester United are upset for real or saying we got a point at least this time! I mean they were playing against Tottenham Hotspur and regarding their failure, this result is positive if we can say so!
Manchester United this time scored and added another goal after Spurs got the draw. They were trying their best although the dominance of Tottenham Hotspur. Manchester United were few inches from scoring a goal by McTominay in the injury time but they failed unfortunately. This result didn't allow Spurs to move to top 4 and let ManU advance a little for now.

They can still go down to 8th in the table, which isn't great. In fact, the fact that they ended the match in a draw I consider it lucky for them, because looking at the match stats Tottenham completely dominated the match, I don't even understand how MU managed to score two goals.

Manchester United indeed seems to be in very poor performance and inconsistent in its matches this season so that its position has really dropped in the standings. However, I saw that in this match, both teams played very aggressively, so they were able to put very good attacking pressure on the back lines of both teams, and created many opportunities. In my opinion, a draw in this match is very natural for Manchester United, because the opponent they faced was not easy, and Tottenham's performance is slightly better than Manchester United this season. However, I saw that in this match Manchester United really tried hard to improve their performance to be good, even though in this match the results were less than optimal.

Tottenham didn't have their full first team regulars yet they put a great display at Old Trafford yesterday. They have lost players to the ongoing Afcon and Asian cup, I don't think Manchester United were affected that much with players loss to these ongoing tournaments. So for me I think Tottenham deserved the better credit that Manchester United who were playing to impress Sir Jim who was at the stadium to watch them yet they couldn't win.

[Polkeins]

It's not correct to compare Chelsea and Manchester United, because Chelsea shows a little cowardly soccer, but still achieve results and for the first time since 2022 Chelsea has 3 wins in a row and you can see that Chelsea, albeit with difficulty, but climbing out of the hole, in which they fell last year and all places above eighth for Chelsea this season will be a success, but Manchester after a good season 2022/2023 is sinking to the bottom of the table and unlike Chelsea can not consistently win or show results. Before our eyes Manchester United is turning from a top club, which was feared by opponents into a weak team, which loses to almost everyone and does not show a stable game, although Manchester's squad even now is still excellent.

Sometimes you have the feeling that Manchester United is a scary team until you realise that it is only on papers. In the previous season they were way better and more stable especially after the first matches and Ten Hag joining the team. This season they are struggling to win..
We will see whether they can prove that they are healing once they win versus Tottenham Hotspur by tomorrow or lose badly against them. By the way the odds to win are in favour of Manchester United
Chelsea aren't that far from Manchester United in terms of stability. They might won three games in a row but Crystal Palace and Luton Town aren't that good either. I think we should mention also their defeat in the first leg of EFL Cup against Middlesbrough..

Well now Chelsea and Manchester United are close in the standings, so apparently about the same level of teams now.
Manchester got a little bit better yesterday. The draw with Tottenham is a good result, although Ten Haga's team led, but the victory could not hold, but at least did not lose, which can already be considered a success for Manchester.

Yesterday it was obvious that Manchester players want to play and then everything works out, but sometimes the players give such matches that it seems that they want to lose, so that Ten Hag finally fired, but apparently now they realize that it is useless and Ten Hag will stay in any case and Manchester players started to play normally.

As for Chesley's game against Middlesbrough in the cup, Palmer should have scored 2 or 3 goals but somehow he didn't get into the empty net.

Not easy to see the new coach of Spurs, Ange Postecoglou doing what he does best, giving headaches to his opponent at Old Trafford yesterday. Manchester United have become one of the problematic elite club that have struggled in almost all their matches, there's definitely no measures attempted by the Red Devils that have become a smooth run. I believed Manchester United will start doing better this season because of the presence of their key players, Alejandro Martinez returning to the club and making enforcement in the backlines, for securing formidable structures, feels good to watch long-term injured players returning to the pitch.

Is it possible for a fan to become tired of watching his team play? You're supposed to be with them through thick and thin, to cheer them up and support them return to their glory days. Nothing is acceptable, and the coach should be held accountable. Concluding on where they will finish this season is too hasty; they still have a lot of time to improve their performance, and if they do, they will finish in a better position than you predicted.

I know. I'm still a fan of United, but the enthusiasm to wait and watch every game they will play has decreased.
Win, Draw, Lose still Manchester United, but Manchester is red is not my motto anymore...
My happily ever-toxic relationship 

Since Sir Alex Ferguson retired, Manchester United has had difficulty finding a successor.
Togetherness and fortitude are missing. Consistency is far from this squad.
United only relied on individual brilliance, and their players were inconsistent.
The United is the only team without playing identity in the league.
But I would be happy if they proved my predictions wrong.

That's true but it's hard to fix it caused by manchester united didn't have good defenders in the club. It doesn't even matter if you were mix and match those defenders hundred of times and it will still useless. I remind you that if manchester united is not having good attacking line too.
Sometimes, it was lucky enough but the consistency from club is still questionable right now. It surprises me that how chelsea was able surpassing manchester united. This proves that if chelsea can also become a direct competitor for manchester united as soon as possible.
People were underestimating chelsea, yet chelsea's performance is still awful but it can at least consistently winning the game which was good enough. The hardest things to be done in sportbetting was to predict the result from match between chelsea vs manchester united.
It's caused by these clubs are still very inconsistent right now. Those clubs were never making significant improvements like other club i.e manchester city or liverpoo. Manchester united and chelsea are still showing nothing.

[rendravolt]

Last week's match between Newcastle vs Manchester City is still an unforgettable one because the hosts were quite ahead but had to lose in injury time. It was all because Kevin De Bruyne came on in the second half and talked about one of the best midfielders in the world, so everyone hoped that he could turn things around for Manchester City to win. Kevin De Bruyne's entry was very influential and he was the key to Manchester City's victory through his goals and assists that night.



In fact, from various sources, Jurgen Kloop said that Kevin De Bruyne's return would shake a country and it was true that in the match against Newcastle, Kevin De Bruyne proved his talent and even though he had just recovered from injury, his performance still amazed everyone who watched. Manchester City's victory was not entirely Pep Guardiola's strategy and was purely the talent of Kevin De Bruyne who had the vision to see his teammate preparing to run to meet the ball and avoid being offside. That is a classy assist that only a few players have and Kevin De Bruyne is one of them.

[Majestic-milf]

Haaland and Salah are both at 14 goals.

Momo will skip games during this month for the African cup, for this reason it will be even easier for Haaland winning the goal leaderboard this season.

 I agree with you that Salah's absence in the EPL will give Haaland an advantage to top the highest goal scorer this season and let's look at it this way, Haaland hasn't been in action for a while and we don't really know when he'd be joining the team but I don't think he can come back and start scoring goals from where he left it. He might be rusty in the game and it will take him like 4-5 games before getting those scoring ability back.
 While the City striker is trying to recover I feel Dominic Ayodele Solanke would try to get past Haaland and Salah that's if Bournemouth continue getting things right and the striker (Dominic Ayodele Solanke) continues scoring goals. I just have that feeling that he can get more goals than Mo Salah and Haaland.

[SmartCharpa]

Manchester United couldn't win but they got a draw against Tottenham however Manchester United could even lose this match because currently Manchester United is not in a good situation and they are having problems in their teams while Tottenham is in a better situation and they had a better start in this season they were even in the first pale of the league for some weeks ad that's why think talking a draw was a lot for Manchester United.

If Tottenham had scored the opening goal, Manchester United could have lost the game. Considering the absent of Spur key players, Manchester United cannot win at Old Trafford. Despite having the opportunity to scored before Tottenham equalized. I didn't expected Manchester united to draw the match because they are not in a good form to defeat Tottenham. The most important thing in the match is to draw, in my opinion, sharing the point is important to Manchester united than losing the match. Manchester United has moved up to number seven, overtaking Chelsea and Brighton, with just one point.

I don't know if the fans of Manchester United are upset for real or saying we got a point at least this time! I mean they were playing against Tottenham Hotspur and regarding their failure, this result is positive if we can say so!

We can only say that Manchester United had lucky to draw the game because Tottenham still has strong players to win the match. Man United's can always disappointed their fans,me. However I know they are working hard to have a good performance, but after winning the first half, they need to have played more defensive, but their defense were weak to stop Spurs from equalizing the scores. As Manchester United have move from previous place for the time being, but they can still lose the position if Chelsea, Brighton and Newcastle win their upcoming game.

The consistency in Manchester United is absolutely questionable because the team has not yet done anything great to accord them with the huge honour. Not for this season. Manchester United have been so inconsistent with their fixturings and if not for the big team that they are, they will have fall below the lines more than they are currently at the table standing.

I will put majority of the blame to the manager, Eric Ten Hag and the management too for allowing all the unnecessary internal wranglings from the beginning of the season till today. It caused the team not to be stable at all and all they were doing were more-or-less like a trial by error kind of game.

What I saw was that Man United played badly in this match, so it could be considered that they were very lucky to get a draw. If we look at the possession of the ball and how Tottenham really dominated the game, as if this was an away match for Man United, though we all know the match was held at Old Trafford. As a team, Man United doesn't have a good rhythm and they also look very sluggish on the pitch (only a few players seem to have a high fighting spirit : Hojlund, Garnacho, and Bruno Fernandes)
