Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[TopT3ns]

It is not about sighting the league title from a far, it is about delivering when it matters. Liverpool has 5 points advantage at the moment and Manchester City has a game in hand which if they win the lead will reduce to two points. If you check Manchester City has had their important players out for long and this second half of the season they are coming back from injuries. Had it been that the point deficit was like 8 or 9 points then I would have believed it would be difficult given the rate Liverpool are playing but I can tell you for fact that Liverpool will drop points and Manchester City will overtake them in the table.

When they lost their core players to Manchester City, Manchester City's performance began to decline, but Manchester City is a great team, so I'm sure they still have mainstay players. In the world of football, depending on only a few people won't give good results. It would be better for the coach to give full trust to his players, who I believe have very good potential, because Manchester City players are the best choice and have a high price.

I think we are stronger than Arsenal, the title is between Liverpool and Man City.

I second that, and i have said it a couple of times here already that if City don't win the league for the fourth time in a row, then it will be Liverpool who would beat them to the title. Liverpool and City have gone head to head in a lot of title races in recent years, though City came out on top in most of them, and i think the both of them are going to go at it this season again.

Of course we cannot take Arsenal completely out of the picture, but TBH i also don't think they can finish either above City or Liverpool this season, i would be surprised if that is to happen.

We currently have few teams which are capable of standing for the title race even Liverpool and Manchester City are the best in business, but we can't talk about Arsenal, Aston Villa and Tottenham are out of the title race because these five teams are doing their best and have fair chance for the win even Liverpool and Manchester City are the best but still things can go either way because we have still 17 matches left into this season.

Liverpool is currently leading the table with five points difference but Manchester City having one match in hand which is mean they can cut this difference by just 2 points which is also not good enough for going through without any problem until end of this season so just wait and watch how things will be taken turn, or we will have Liverpool alone at the top for the title which is surely not easy for them with the competitiveness in Premier League is increasing day by day.

Manchester City are still one of the best clubs in the season thus far. But they still need to score more matches before they can overtake Liverpool. 43 points beneath of the 48 points that Liverpool is carrying at the top of the table standing. The last 6 matches played by them were all wins and no lose at all.

Overtaking Liverpool would mean Liverpool would have to lose their matches and Manchester City winning theirs which is very unlikely to happen, Liverpool are already sighting the trophy from afar so they will be more focused and serious to win it than ever.

It is difficult for Manchester City to overtake Liverpool who are trying to secure first position after not feeling at the top of the standings for a very long time. Liverpool are in their best performance at the moment, they continue to collect points to keep their distance from their closest competitors. Klopp will try to give Liverpool his best to end Manchester City's success story in the EPL over the last few years. This season Liverpool has once again shown its strength as a big club in the EPL, they will try to win this trophy to increase the team's enthusiasm for the next season.

The hopes of Liverpool fans and coach Klopp are true, but Manchester City is not standing still at the moment so things will also be exciting this season when Manchester City continues to chase Liverpool to take top position. Even though in reality Liverpool is in very good condition, there is a big possibility for Liverpool to continue to stay at the top if Liverpool can continue to achieve victory in the remaining matches this season, especially when Liverpool faces strong teams like Manchester City and Arsenal.

In this case Man City is the party who benefits because Kevin de Bruyne return coincides with Mo Salah long absence. And for the party that is slightly disadvantaged, Liverpool needs to be able to overcome Mo Salah absence in any way. In the last match Nunez was Liverpool substitute and savior to maintain the point difference from Man City. But because 1 month is quite a long time it means that there are 3 to 4 matches that have to be played without Mo Salah and this is clearly not something that is easy for Liverpool to go through. The 5 point difference is not the problem but Liverpool consistency is at stake without a capable striker. I don't doubt Liverpool players but Mo Salah presence is vital in every victory they achieve.

indeed a loss for Liverpool. but it seems like Klopp doesn't want to make it a burden for the team to face several opponents. and several matches seem to have been successfully passed. they won 0-2 from Arsenal. they won 2-1 from Fulham. and finally won 0-4 against Bournemouth.
Klopp still has several player options on the front line with a combination of Gakpo, Nunez, Jota, Luis Diaz, and Elliot. Even though Salah is very important for the team, when he can't play then Klopp has to maximize the existing players. They cannot give up City's pursuit, which still has 1 match.

Klop is known for his determined spirit and doggedness to winning he's got a very strong mentality for winning such that the absence of a player doesn't really slow down his performance and that of the team, he's got a good tactical approach that helps him snap quickly out of the mods of the absence of a player and looking for a better alternative almost immediately to get the team delivered.

I know city also have a coach with similar mindset and mentality as klop but staying ahead of city is something city will need an extra effort to get over, it's  very possible for city to get back to the yob of the standing and that can be made possible only if Liverpool continues with losses which I'm sure they wouldn't knowing how crucial their position is at the top of the table, Liverpool is actually my favourite for the trophy because so far they have shown a deserving performance but then let the best team win.

[Obari]

The premier league returns again with high expectations from the teams in the top four.There is high competition among those teams now because the point gap is not too much, Liverpool are ahead,and it just seem they won't be dropping points soon.They will be playing Arsenal who are seriously looking at levelling points with them so they can be ontop of the league table,while Mancity at thesame time are also eyeing the league as well.However,it is yet to be seen among the four teams in the top four,which one can win the league.
The game between Arsenal and Liverpool will be a decider whether Liverpool will finish above Àrsenal or they will finish below them because Salah won't be playing that game,and it might look quite difficult for Liverpool.

The 5 point difference that Liverpool has from Manchester City is not a long distance in the English league, because based on previous experience, many second place teams were actually able to take the top of the standings at the end of the season after they were previously several points behind, currently Liverpool is at the top with 21 matches, while Manchester still has one match postponed which they might be able to use as an AS card later to reverse their position in standing, I don't want to doubt Liverpool regardless of their performance, but as I said in a previous post, Liverpool will actually face several difficult matches in the next few weeks and if Liverpool lose then it will be an advantage for Manchester City who will only face an easy match against a bottom team, whether or not Liverpool stays at the top of the standings will be largely determined in the next two matches in my opinion.

I was surprised that Bournemouth were easily beaten by Liverpool. I was expecting Bournemouth to give Liverpool a hard time before Liverpool could defeat them. Liverpool has shown they can still win their matches even though they are not with Salah.

Onana, Manchester United's goalkeeper, did not perform well when playing for Cameroon at AFCON in the round 2 group c match. Cameroon then lost 3-1 against Senegal.
In the third group c match between Gambia vs Cameroon, Onana was benched and Ondoha was entrusted with the goalkeeper position in the ongoing match.

The Cameroon coach realized after seeing and assessing Onana's abilities when they lost against Senegal and Rigobert Song didn't want Cameroon to lose again by placing Onana as the main goalkeeper against Gambia.

My question is, why is Erik ten Hag too confident in Onana to guard Manchester United's goal, who often makes mistakes when Manchester United play?

Even though we are considering the teams in the top four but yes, in reality we are only considering about Liverpool and Manchester City as candidates to win the Premier League trophy this season . Even though yes,in reality at this moment Manchester City, Arsenal and Aston Villa have the same points with 43 points, but this factor still does not make Arsenal and Aston Villa become candidates for the title as Manchester City . But indeed, the injury suffered by Salah this moment will certainly have a bad impact on the big match that Liverpool will play later. But yes, let's just wait and see how Klopp still manages to get good results for Liverpool with the rotation he made later.

[BABY SHOES]

My question is, why is Erik ten Hag too confident in Onana to guard Manchester United's goal, who often makes mistakes when Manchester United play?

Erik Ten Hag is always confident in Andre Onana despite his frequent mistakes, always what Erik Ten Hag says is: "I believe Onana will rise and have confidence" even though we know he was a bad goalkeeper after the move from Inter Milan.

Onana's form is no longer what it was at Inter Milan he can be said to have deteriorated in performance as a goalkeeper and perhaps it can be said more goals against him in the EPL than any other goalkeeper?

Until Erik Ten Hag is still at Manchester United I think he will remain the main player.

I think we can still recall how the last title Chase ended between this two teams, Liverpool were indeed holding strong but at the end Manchester city still overtook them and became victorious and if you ask me, Liverpool hasn't got the perseverance and consistency to out run Liverpool and become victorious. If it's one thing this Manchester city team is good that would be the love for chasing teams ahead of them and they have continued to show that they are probably the best team when it comes to succumbing their opponent chances to win the EPL title.

Manchester City will need to continue their winning streak if they want to regain the top spot in the points table. Otherwise, it will not be possible for City to go to the top of the table. Because at the moment, the performance of City's main opponent, Liverpool, is very consistent. Mohamed Salah is injured. It is not known when he will return from injury. On February 1 and 4, Liverpool are going to face Premier League's two giants team Chelsea and Arsenal. It will be very difficult for Liverpool to win these two matches without Salah. So I think if City can keep up their winning streak now then it might be possible for City to take the top spot in the table.

Dude, are you drunk?

Liverpool was able to beat Arsenal in Emirates Stadium without Salah, while Chelsea is currently struggling, they can't even beat Middlesbrough aka a championship team.

Manchester City might able to overtake Liverpool, but they're also have a problem as Ederson Moraes is injured.

I'd say both Liverpool and Manchester City are equal.

Did I say that Liverpool are the weakest team? Liverpool are strong enough I know that.

Chelsea's performance is not strong enough. This team is performing very erratically. But can this group be considered weak? I don't think so. Because they drew the match 4-4 with Manchester City, I don't forget it. Chelsea won the match 4-1 against the likes of Tottenham. And more importantly, Chelsea have won their last three matches. So you think it will be easy for Liverpool to beat Chelsea?

Liverpool have a good past record against Arsenal. Liverpool have drawn two of their last three matches and won one. Still, there's no underestimating the Arsenal team. The team is still trying to grab the top spot in the table.

[beerlover]

A team as big as Liverpool will not depend on just one player, Mohamed Salah is their main player who makes a big contribution, but that doesn't mean that without Mohamed Salah, Liverpool's performance will decline drastically.
I see that Liverpool has even strength in all lines, so if there is a rotation of players in several sectors, it will not have a significant effect on the team's performance.

I mean up until the last game, everyone will keep trusting that they will have a chance to win it all, which is why I think it is going to be fun for the rest of the season. However, when you look at how Liverpool is going, I think it would be very difficult for them to lose as well, who are they going to lose against? This means that, one team will make a mistake, like lose to a team they should win, or get a draw, and those type of games will be the deciding factor.

I think it should be important to realize that we are not going to end up with anything that would be marginal, and should be considering the improvement a lot more. Also, injuries plays a big role, and if anyone gets injured again, that may result not so well.

While looking at the English Premier League table, you will understand that nothing different will happen in this season apart from the usual end of season drama. This time around the drama might not be so interesting, just because Arsenal is not at the top of the English Premier League table. Arsenal Football club is more dramatic than any other club in England. This is because they could be leading the table with 7 points difference and will lose all of them within five matches to end the league. That is unlike Liverpool, if Liverpool is able to extend their leading with up to five points, I will be confident to tell Manchester City goodbye to the title this season. but if the goal difference is just two or three which only one match mistake could cover, I will not be confident that Liverpool will be able to maintain their top spot till the end of the season. If you examine the league very carefully, you will understand that Manchester City KDB is back and also Erling Haaland is back to the squad. Much is therefore expected of Manchester city.

Until Erik Ten Hag is still at Manchester United I think he will remain the main player.

I think what Ten hags doesn’t know is the that the EPL is different from Eredivisie and Serie A. At Inter Milan, Onana had enough defensive security, couple with the way they play in the team with 3 at the back which provided enough solidity at the back to protect him and mask his errors.
At Manchester United, the defense is non existent. His errors are becoming unnumbered and it was the idea of the manager to bring him to the club, so I think it’s the hope that "things might get better" that’s keeping him at the club.

[hahay]

Onana, Manchester United's goalkeeper, did not perform well when playing for Cameroon at AFCON in the round 2 group c match. Cameroon then lost 3-1 against Senegal.

If in the next Manchester United match Erik ten Hag still plays Onana as the main goalkeeper then yes, there seems to be something not good about the selection made by Erik ten Hag. Because after all, it has been proven that Onana could not play well after leaving Inter and therefore, it is time for Erik ten Hag to no longer play Onana as the main goalkeeper. Moreover, Manchester United's defence also often makes blunders and added with a goalkeeper who is not entirely good, it is clear that Manchester United will still experience bad results maybe almost every match.

Klopp have proven himself to be a great coach that knows how to manage situations to get results. He is good at improvising as you can see from Liverpool 's performance with Mo Salah's absence. I think he understand the situation of the league better and will be more than ready to face the race with Manchester City, their closest rival.

If Liverpool maintain their wins until Salah returns from the AFCON, then I do not see anything that will stop them from winning the trophy. Besides, Machester City that is supposed to be chasing them also have their own problems. The only people I'm not so impressed with their outing this season is Arsenal that had the chance of topping the league yet they blew it.

[QueenVera]

Liverpool will face Chelsea and Arsenal after the victory against Bournemouth, I hope they are not hampered in those two matches because if they are hampered in the end Manchester City will overtake them, there are still several matches that are certainly not easy for Liverpool to get through this season. Therefore, we cannot know how hard Liverpool will maintain their consistency even though Moh Salah will also return to Anfield.

But I think Manchester City will continue to compete with Liverpool at the top of the standings because in my opinion Aston Villa and Arsenal will not compete with the two clubs above, they do not yet have sufficient strength and are consistent properly so it is difficult to predict which Aston Villa and Arsenal will enter. clubs competing for the title this season. So far only Manchester City and Liverpool, I also want to inform you that Arsenal is rising from adversity. I hope Arsenal or Chelsea's meeting against Liverpool will not disappoint all Liverpool supporters. I hope they can win the title this season.

Mo Salah is out due to injury from AFCON and owing to these we don’t know how much of an effect it’ll have on this Liverpool side. They’re going to be facing chelsea and Arsenal who’re also top teams, especially Arsenal who’s trying to fight for the title too. Liverpool might begin to experience tough times without their key player, against this top teams, well Chelsea might not be too tough, but Arsenal are currently like a wounded lion and a back in form for the title race, so it's going to be a tough one for Liverpool.

 Any slip from Liverpool in any of these matches, will get Manchester City closer to them on the log and I know Liverpool don’t want this pressure yet.  Yes, City are the major competitors Liverpool have especially as Arsenal or Villa are not serious and confident yet to pose a challenge. Well I hope the match between Arsenal or Chelsea won’t be one Liverpool will want to forget in a hurry especially as any of this match could make them lose on the title.

My question is, why is Erik ten Hag too confident in Onana to guard Manchester United's goal, who often makes mistakes when Manchester United play?

Onana has conceded too many bad goals this season, but we remember his great performances at Inter. I think Erik ten Hag is giving him endless credit for his confidence and trying to help him reach his Inter performance. The backup goalkeepers who can replace Onana are Altay Bayindir and Tom Heaton. Both of them deserved a chance this season actually. Tom Heaton has been in this team almost 4 seasons and is an experienced goalkeeper. I know Altay Bayindir from Turkey and he is a young and talented goalkeeper. I think Erik ten Hag did them an injustice by not giving them a chance.
