Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Davian144]

Arsenal's chances against Crystal Palace are worrying me. Indeed, losing two consecutive London derbies must have affected their confidence. Arsenal has struggled to win at the Emirates versus Palace. Palace is still dangerous even though Zaha has moved to Galatasaray. I think Arsenal's chances of winning the league are limited. It takes a miracle to beat Palace and return to the top two. A tough path ahead makes me pessimistic.

There is no need to be pessimistic like that because Arsenal also does not want to embarrass themselves in front of their supporters against Crystal Palace at the Emirates Stadium. And if Arsenal can win at home against Crystal Palace, I don't think Arsenal will immediately move up to second place in the Premier League standings because they are hampered by the large number of goals that Manchester City currently has. But for third place, I think it will be more certain for Arsenal if Arsenal is able to win that match.

It's really bad if Salah's injury takes a long time to recover, it will affect Liverpool performance so bad, this will make Manchester City high likely to win the Premier League. Although Liverpool can won in their recent match, but without Salah they're not really strong.

Manchester City is only need De Bruyne to perform good, Haaland can be replaced with other striker.

Its reason why Liverpool manager dislike with AFCON play on middle competition not at the end, with potential Mohamad Salah have long term injury will make Liverpool on difficult position for winning Premier League this season.
I don't sure Liverpool have consistency winning games without Salah and have many matches left not only in Premier League but also Liverpool want to win UEFA Europe League trophy.
Jurgen Klopp have confirmed to media he doesn't know well about Salah injury and how many weeks need to recovery, actually is not happy information for him with Liverpool in the winning trend and potential for winning domestic league this season but if Salah have absent until the end this season will difficult opportunity for Liverpool to be the domestic league winner.

Almost all of coaches were hating the international competition like that. Salah has always become the main player owned by liverpool to win the game or even make comeback. Missing him for a few weeks will be a disaster for liverpool caused by i can't really trust jota to fill salah's position in EPL. The match in EPL will become even tougher than before. This makes me think that if missing salah will become an opportunity for manchester city to get the trophy again. This is another disaster for liverpool to miss him soon.
I can't even see that from jurgon klopp's statement if he was feeling very disappointed with this news. It's caused by the absence of salah will be costing the club a lot. I don't like international competition too caused by it was often making the players injured.
Salah is going to miss so many games and liverpool will have also another fixture in the europa league.

But for third place, I think it will be more certain for Arsenal if Arsenal is able to win that match.

Arsenal team is a bit off form right now. But in this match their opponent Crystal Palace is a strong team. Crystal Palace's performance in the Premier League this season has been very poor. The Crystal Palace team is now in the 14th place in the points table with 21 points in 20 matches.

Arsenal's past record against Crystal Palace is very good. Arsenal team has been able to defeat Crystal Palace team in the last 3 matches. Also, Arsenal are still dreaming of winning the title. So every match is very important for them now. Arsenal and Manchester City will be level on points if they win this match. And Arsenal will not want to disappoint their fans at home. Arsenal players will fight hard to win this match.

Manchester City have De Bruyne back and soon Haaland will recover as well. Liverpool really need Salah as soon as possible from now on as things will get much more heated about the league title competition.    Klopp must be hoping Egypt not to make it to the finale of AFCON. He stated on an interview that he wanted Salah back quickly as well.  

If Egypt reach the finale of the tournament then Salah will miss two big games which are going to be against Chelsea and Arsenal. These are both Premier League games so it would be a huge problem for Liverpool. In this case Manchester City can benefit from their weakness.

Liverpool must learn how to play without Salah because they failed to realise that it would eventually hurt them. I even heard that Salah suffered an injury during Egypt's match against Ghana; if this is true, then both the Liverpool team and Egypt must learn how to play without Salah on the pitch or they will keep losing games. On Sunday, Liverpool plays Bournemouth, and although Salah will not be playing, If Liverpool still has players who can contribute to the team's success and win games before Salah returns from injury, so I believe they can overcome Bournemouth.

I think Liverpool can maintain their current standing in the league table, even though I know that Manchester City is in good shape now that DE Bruyne has returned, and if Haaland returns, their performance will be even better than it was before because DE Bruyne always provides Haaland with excellent passing that helps them win a game. However, Liverpool is still ahead of Manchester City by two points, and Liverpool will not want to let them lose and give Manchester City the top spot.

But for third place, I think it will be more certain for Arsenal if Arsenal is able to win that match.

After all, of course Arsenal have good head to head results also against Crystal Palace and therefore, then even though at this moment Arsenal got a losing streak but still does not guarantee Arsenal will be defeated easily by Crystal Palace in this match. Because ya, at least Crystal Palace also does not have a good trend in this moment and also, Crystal Palace does not have a stable performance and therefore, it will still be difficult for Crystal Palace to be able to beat Arsenal. So yes, the point is that I personally remain fully confident that Arsenal have a good chance of winning, because Arsenal have a target to maintain their position in the top four, of course.

According to some news report the gravity of Salah injury is yet to be confirmed and ascertain by Liverpool until after a Scan with MRI thereafter an announcement would be made to know the period he would be on sideline  for now I don't think Salah would play the next match for his country, meanwhile Salah absence in Liverpool starting eleven would have a great impact on the side, he provides assists as well as score goals for Liverpool the likes of Nunez, Gakpo and Luiz Diaz are not profilic and not a clinical finisher like Salah who created chances out of nothing to help Liverpool win matches let wait and see how the team would cope without him.

It's really a sad news for Liverpool to take but they are left with almost no choice because that's the current situation of their key player and the only solution is to wait for him and hope he gets well soon and back on the pitch with them to get the team back in their form for the rest of the season.

Klop and other team players are sure not happy about the new development of the fact that Salah is suffering this injury gotten from AFCON and is very likely it will take a long while before recovery for him to be able to get back to Liverpool, let's see if klop has got a good replacement pending the return of Salah or better still he could try rotational tactics to seeing if it could keep the team going, their Europa and premier league dream will to an extent be threatened by this injury because the presence of Salah has got so much impact in helping them getting the various league titles.

However, Liverpool is still ahead of Manchester City by two points, and Liverpool will not want to let them lose and give Manchester City the top spot.

I think you are right, you'll know a strong team by their ability to perform well during the absence of their key players and it's proven this season that Manchester City is a really strong team in Europe, despite the fact that Debruyne's absence worried them in some matches, but it didn't take too long before they recovered and started adapting without KDB and currently KDB is back and their top 9 Haaland is absent but their still doing pretty good with the rest of the squad they've got.

 That's something Liverpool should emulate, there's no doubt that Mo Salah plays an important role in the team, however they still got other qualify players that could stand in form him till he returns from country duties, so why depend on one player when they still got other quality players in their squad. Bournemouth is not a team Liverpool should be scared of, they should underestimate them however they capable of getting 3 points from them with our without Salah.

The news spreads so fast and I don't the injury is more serious than we anticipated it to be. Mohammed Salah have been a key man in his club and country. Unfortunately he sustained a crucial injury, which will lead him to missed quite important matches, I don't know how Egypt will scope without their main player in the AFCON. This is just the beginning and there are more essential games to be play. Mohammed Salah picked up an injury in yesterday’s match against Ghana in the AFCON. This is certainly the scenario Jurgen Klopp was preventing from happening because Salah is his key man in the frontline and there's quite alot he would achieved if he's stable and available for matches.

Egypt and Liverpool really hope that Salah can return as soon as possible, to help boost the team performance in the future, Egypt needs Salah help to get through the group phase, while Liverpool hopes for more from Salah at this time. The news of Salah injury is a disaster for Egypt and Liverpool current ambitions, because we know his important role at the club. So far there has been no official confirmation when Salah will be available again, because his condition is currently under medical examination, there has been no decision regarding his injury.

If Salah is absent for a long time, then Egypt and Liverpool will definitely be very worried, and especially the Reds, I think they will be very unstable in maintaining their top position in the EPL standings. Man City consistency is clearly a real threat going forward, being 2 points away is very easy for Pep Guardiola troops to overtake them going forward. The next scenario relies heavily on Klopp experiments in rotating players, but the fact is that without Salah in the lineup Klopp will have a real headache carrying out his strategy.

Arsenal team is a bit off form right now. But in this match their opponent Crystal Palace is a strong team. Crystal Palace's performance in the Premier League this season has been very poor. The Crystal Palace team is now in the 14th place in the points table with 21 points in 20 matches.

Actually irrespective of Arsenal poor performance lately there is no way crystal palace can stand a chance against them because crystal palace seem not to have been too bordered by there poor performance that's why they have not actually been able to secure a good position on this premier League season by being at the 14 position on the table, so perhaps whichever way we view it Arsenal is far good in performance than crystal palace, however arsenal was even supposed to be leading the premier League table this season but it was there seasonal mistakes that deprived them there opportunity of being the best candidate for the premier League but is actually a win match for them against crystal palace.

I agree with you, even though Arsenal win against Crystal Palace despite the fact that Arsenal's performance are very poor, Arsenal can't get the second place in the table because even among the top four Arsenal are the one that have the least goals, even for Arsenal to take over the third place with Aston villa they need to score 2-3 goals and not to concede any goal.

In the last 5 matches they won 3 defeats, it was a very bad result for them, if in this match they have to lose again then it will be something very disappointing. They should be able to take advantage of this match to get back to good results and return to winning ways like they showed at the start of the season.
I wonder why they always get the same situation, yes they always decline when entering the second half of the season. This is their weak point that must be fixed immediately, otherwise they will be further away from the competition for the title this season. Because at the same time other clubs are also improving. They must evaluate what has happened to them lately so that they can get back on track.

Take it easy, friend, you don't need to worry because Arsenal, one of the big clubs, has a good reputation and a bad trend experienced by Arsenal does not continue to last long and compete against Crystal Palace I will not doubt because away matches always make Crystal Palace always difficult to score a score bigger and always defeated if you compete away and although Arsenal were very bad competing at home but I am sure that this time Arsenal will win this time.

I'm sure anyone here will never have any doubts about betting on Arsenal because it's like providing a guarantee and on the one hand, Crystal Palace currently doesn't have the strength to fight Arsenal, while Arsenal is currently trying to improve their performance to restore the fans' trust.
This is an opportunity for Arsenal to secure 3 points because it is not only Crystal Palace that Arsenal will beat but also Nottingham will be one of the clubs that Arsenal will steal points from.

If Man City are found guilty of the FFP charges, They'd be relegated from the Premier league. That's a big iff though, since it's Man City, they will lawyer up and just throw more money at the problem.

Of course it is true, Manchester City will receive severe punishment if they are proven to have violated the rules. However, to this day, they have not been found guilty even though there are more than a hundred accusations that have been filed. Other rivals including Liverpool and Arsenal would certainly love for Manchester City to get punished, but so far there have been too many rumors to be believed.

I hope Manchester City is truly able to defend itself against all these accusations and win the trial. This is what all their fans hope for, especially because this season Manchester City has a big chance of defending its title for the fourth time in a row.

It is still difficult to investigate cases one by one especially with 115 allegations of charges it will take a long time while Manchester City will certainly defend against these charges this will be a complicated matter and maybe the next few seasons will know the results.

Manchester City do not care about money for their lawyers who pay anything.

Of course that's what Manchester City will defend, with so many charges it's not easy, but I hope it will be fine, just imagine if Manchester City relegated many players will leave this team because they don't want to play in the second division.

I'm surprised to see Arsenal struggling to win their premier league matches. The 2-1 away defeat from Fulham was Arsenal's second consecutive defeat in the league. I will not say that Arsenal is out of the title race because the point difference between Liverpool and Arsenal is just 5 points and Arsenal might close the gap if they can win against Crystal Palace.

In the Premier League there is always greater tension in terms of competition so that the five point gap must also be taken seriously by Arsenal because what Arsenal is competing with now are Liverpool, Aston Villa and also Manchester City which in general are not bad teams. So Arsenal still have to fight harder if they want to win a trophy this season because it is very difficult to beat the three teams with a five-point gap that Arsenal currently has.

The English League is a very prestigious competition, and all the teams competing of course have very good strength; therefore, all those competing must use all their strength to win. When there is a difference in points that big, they must win the next two matches to have a chance. to seize a position above him. Liverpool and Manchester City will be very difficult opponents to beat, so Arsenal will have to work well as a team to get the win.

That is what made the English Premier League special. In the Premier League, big clubs are not certain of three points until they have played their match and won. I believe Arsenal will find their form back and contest for the Premier League title against Liverpool and Manchester City.

[red4slash]

Until now Arsenal are still in the top 4 although indeed the performance is still not safe and they still have problems in terms of points but they still survive in the top 4 so far.
I don't think they will be too active for transfers because in the end for now even though they will definitely make movements towards player transfers but they will not be as active when transferring in the summer.
The reason is actually quite clear because we know that they are now aware that sometimes not everything has to be done with new players and currently Arsenal are still very well known as one of the most wasteful clubs in the EPL so for this January transfer they will definitely be more restrained.

It would be better if they maximise the situation by restoring the spirit of their young players who are currently a little eroded and look very lacklustre and Arteta's job now before their schedule gets busier is to do just that.

Arsenal started the season with good performance, but they could not maintain their consistency. That is why they are still in the top 4 Arsenal will meet Crystal Palace in their upcoming game. I don't see Crystal Palace making any enough progress to defeat Arsenal, since I am aware that their current performance will make the match difficult for them. Although I doubt Arsenal will make it through this season, I still have hope that they will perform well in their upcoming games. Since Artetal is working so hard to ensure that the teams perform well, all of Arsenal's issues have been resolved.

Until now when talking about h2h and statistics owned between Arsenal and Crystal Palace there is actually no situation that will be complicated because we see that until now Arsenal are still very far superior when compared to Palace and it is evident where the last 4 matches in all competitions they have Arsenal successfully got 3 wins and 1 win for Crytsral Palace when Arsenal met Crystal Palace.
At the moment it doesn't seem like it will be a problem just when talking about the performance in the last few matches at the moment it looks like Arsenal still have a problem that could interfere with them.

1 win, 1 draw and 3 wins in the last 5 matches this time should make Arteta become more motivated because if they continue like this then it is not impossible for them to get further away from the standings so when the goal is the competition for the EPL trophy then they must be able to try their best to stop their chaotic performance that happened in the last few matches.

Arsenal's past record against Crystal Palace is very good. Arsenal team has been able to defeat Crystal Palace team in the last 3 matches. Also, Arsenal are still dreaming of winning the title. So every match is very important for them now. Arsenal and Manchester City will be level on points if they win this match. And Arsenal will not want to disappoint their fans at home. Arsenal players will fight hard to win this match.

I think Arsenal is the favorite of the upcoming match, despite the fact that the team can not win in recent games. Yes, the Gunners are on a losing streak. But the game with Crystal Palace is a good opportunity for the club to break the losing streak. Crystal Palace will not be able to do anything against their opponent, despite the fact that Sallah is absent from the Arsenal squad.

[Odohu]

For the sake of your prediction this week, take noted of the two ongoing international competitions and how they may affect the clubs whose players have gone for international duties. I saw this article that gave me detail run down of the players and their respective clubs and I felt I should shared it for those who might find it important.

Personally, I will be careful with clubs like Liverpool that have their hitman, Mo Salah engaged in international duties. Seems Machester City is the only top team that has no player in those competitions.

[topbitcoin]

That is what made the English Premier League special. In the Premier League, big clubs are not certain of three points until they have played their match and won. I believe Arsenal will find their form back and contest for the Premier League title against Liverpool and Manchester City.

We have not been able to confirm  this even though we know for sure that the current situation for Arsenal could actually be an easy match for them but nevertheles at this time they still can't provide a situation that can really be ascertained easily.
In the last few match they always saw Arsenal fragile so for now if they really want 3 point they get in this home match  then at least they must be able to prove themselve that they are worthy in terms of performance  and Arsenal can be better than some of the matches they did before.

On the other hand, in this week it also seem that this is an opportunity  for Liverpool to distance themselve in the standings.
Currently the gap between Liverpool and  Manchester City is 2 point and looking at the current schedule it looklike Liverpool chance to distance themselve will be very large because they will only face Bournemouth alone in their 21st week.

If Mohamed Salah's injury is serious, it wouldn't be good for Liverpool. Losing their best players in a mid-season African Cup will end their leadership joy. Hamstring injuries can be serious.
The moment Liverpool make a mistake, Manchester City take the lead and never let it go. From then on, the balance in the Premier League will not change easily. City had given other teams enough advances. Liverpool and Arsenal couldn't use this well. They needed to collect more points. City with De Bruyne won't lose points easily anymore.

At the moment it is known that he has a hamstring injury and if it is just a bruise/sprain, then he will miss the last game of the group stage and then return to action again. If this is a tissue rupture, then the consequences will be much more serious and he will miss more games (including in Liverpool). I would like to see how Klopp reacted to this news when he was told - it was probably something emotional, like how he behaves during games
