Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Cookdata]

I think Klopp's decision has affected the players in a positive way because they definitely want to win this season and let Klopp remember this season for the rest of his life.

Although desire alone will definitely not be enough to win, much more is needed for this, and for this we definitely cannot lose at home to Arsenal, but it happened and now City must take advantage of it. They beat Brentford last night and are now just one win away from topping the table again. All of City's leaders are back in squard, and they are ready to win.

I was expecting this statement and here it is boldly discussed . Klopp decision to leave the club was decided in the mid of the season and hence to announce to the world is the best so it doesn't get tense by the end of the season when he decided to leave and the club will prepare ahead of another coach which in my opinion is better, they wouldn't have to settle for rubbish manager just like the way Chelsea did in 2021 and till now, the position of the club has been compromised.

Just because Arsenal hasn't been doing good, you don't think they don't deserve to win Liverpool right. I didn't pay too much attention to Liverpool this season not until I check their stats and I was shocked that they have only loss a single match, and they hve kept to that until they loss 2 days ago again. If Klopp continues to hold down and Salah comes back from Afcon, the team might stabilize a little bit and win some difficult matches ahead and still maintain the table.

Manchester City beat their opponent 3-1 away from home and got 3 points.City, who are 2 points behind Liverpool despite missing 1 game, will have the chance to take the lead from Liverpool if they win that game as well.Thus, if they do not lose any more points, they can take the lead and take the psychological advantage, but the race is still not over.

The performance of Manchester City has greatly improved because there performance ever since Kelvin de Bruyne return from his injury it was as if there strength was restored because there performance became very good that they hardly lose any match however to an extent I was actually thinking that there is no way Manchester City will go far on this season but considering there performance now there is every possibility that Manchester City will be a strong candidate for the premier League champion because there efforts has speak volume for them, so perhaps everything is dependent on Liverpool performance because if they are not consistent enough Manchester City will take away there first position on the premier League table.

[Mr.suevie]

Do you realize that both Liverpool and Arsenal have played more games than Manchester city? Liverpool is just ahead of City with just a two points different. Man city has outstanding game at hand and if they play the game now and win, they will be ahead of Liverpool with a point.

Are you sure, what if Manchester City is unable to win the remaining matches that have not been played? Something that hasn't been played yet can't confirm the result, maybe Manchester City will lose points in that match, of course Liverpool will still be in first place.
This is not a setting from FIFA, Manchester City has just won the Champions League. There will be additional match schedules that Manchester City have to play, such as having to appear in the Club World Cup which means they have to postpone their matches in the EPL.

Of course, I'm not sure if they are going to win the game and if you observe my previous comment, I used "if" which indicates that I'm not too certain that Manchester city will win but from the look of things, I don't see any team in the EPL now that are stronger than city. I'm not saying they can not be beaten because football sometimes is a game of wonders where an underdog team can shock the top teams but we can not also argue over City being a dominant team in EPL. Manchester City has been the dominant force in the Premier League in recent years by winning the title in four of the last five seasons.

City is not like Arsenal that relent at the crucial time of the league. There's every sign obvious that Manchester city will probably win the title again because Liverpool wasted an opportunity to increase the gap between them when they play against Arsenal and looseguard. City will definitely attempt to utilize every opportunity available to climb the top of that table.

I was really delighted about Manchester City performance in yesterday's game. They dominated the entire game and gave Brentford little opportunity in that game. The Brentford goalie was really handy if not that scoreline would have been more than what it was in that game. If you noticed City has started the unbeaten run again which usually last till the end of the season. So when you say city has been a dominant team in EPL and stronger than others I agree with you.

I think Manchester city has entered that particular winning stride that no team can reach their playing performance again and when they do get into this mode they tend to win and out play every team and everyone knows where that always end at the final results of the season. The time has because more tense now that Liverpool lost to the gunners and I know Manchester city losing any match now will be difficult and this is also couple with the brilliant performance of their midfield specialist.

Do you realize that both Liverpool and Arsenal have played more games than Manchester city? Liverpool is just ahead of City with just a two points different. Man city has outstanding game at hand and if they play the game now and win, they will be ahead of Liverpool with a point.

Yeah, theoretically Manchester City should be in the top position if all teams have same total matches, FIFA just want to make Liverpool's fans temporary happy with the current standings.

It's the time for Nunez able to become a goal scorer for Liverpool, he can't just wasting many chances from his teammates.

Are you sure, what if Manchester City is unable to win the remaining matches that have not been played? Something that hasn't been played yet can't confirm the result, maybe Manchester City will lose points in that match, of course Liverpool will still be in first place.

To you, how possible do you think it will be, for Manchester City to lose a match that is very important to them, that will give them the chance to climb to the top of the PL table, they have been longing for, for a long.
I am not disputing the fact that anything can happen in the field of play but thinking that Everton would stop or win against Manchester City is unthinkable. You know why? Because of the current form of Manchester City that looks formidable with Kelvin Bruyne in the field plus other of their key players who have all returned from their long injuries.
In case you don't know, Manchester City have no injured players again. Expect to see most of them in matches because Pep Guardiola will begin to feature more of them in PL, Champions League, and FA Cup.

Do you realize that both Liverpool and Arsenal have played more games than Manchester city? Liverpool is just ahead of City with just a two points different. Man city has outstanding game at hand and if they play the game now and win, they will be ahead of Liverpool with a point. Currently, they have the same points with Arsenal but goal difference put them ahead of them in the table. With the recovery of De Bruyne into the squad, we may witness some classic display in their remaining games. I still have trust in Pep that he deliver the premier league to Manchester city once again. As long as Pep Guardiola is in England, they will trophy will not go far from Etihad. It won't be surprising if Manchester city win the title again this season because they are working for it as they always did and it is deserving.

That's still fine, teams lose points, and as long as they keep the fight going, they could still win the league. This doesn't mean to say Liverpool WILL win it, but just because they are 2 points ahead with one more game, doesn't mean they will lose it, City may lose that extra game, who knows?

The results weren't as good as they hoped for, and it is not really nice to have these type of losses, but they had plenty of great wins as well, I think that's the most important thing. I think it's clear that people will lose their chances to make something better, and that's the trouble, I think that should be the most important part. If they could do something nice, they will be able to get back at the top with clear points even on same number of games.

[hahay]

Manchester City beat their opponent 3-1 away from home and got 3 points.City, who are 2 points behind Liverpool despite missing 1 game, will have the chance to take the lead from Liverpool if they win that game as well.Thus, if they do not lose any more points, they can take the lead and take the psychological advantage, but the race is still not over. Let's say that 3-4 teams are still in the championship race.I don't know who will be the champion for sure because the point difference is small and every team has the potential to beat each other.The only thing I know is that there will be a good competition until the last week.

After all, the fact is that Manchester City have regained two of their key players recovered from injury and therefore, then ofcourse Manchester City have a very big chance to be able to return to the top of the Premier League standings. Because ya, although currently Liverpool are still at the top of the Premier League standings but still, Liverpool are still difficult to maintain the consistency of win in each match.

What's more, about Salah injury certainly has a bad impact on the team's performance during a difficult competition like now because the points gap is close again. Although indeed,basically Liverpool also has a great effort that the team has with good chemistry as well in the squad but still, that Pep Guardiola with the full support received at the club also has a very good impact to Manchester City results will get in each match.

It seems like Pep Guardiola is starting to get serious about improving the performance of his team, but this time with a slightly different pattern, namely 4-1-4-1. with the return of Erling Haaland and De Bruyne, City's front line is getting fiercer again. although, in the match against Brentford, Phil Foden was the successful goal scorer with his hat trick. overall, Pep Guardiola's team played very well. in particular, other players who were revealed to be in the starting eleven in the match against Brentford.

Brentford seemed unable to provide much resistance, even Ivan Toney was unable to play optimally. Thomas Frank's pattern with his 3-5-2, was helpless when facing Manchester City in yesterday's match. If the Brentford goalkeeper doesn't play well enough, it seems like who knows how many goals Manchester City will score. proven, Mark Flekken made 12 saves. quite fantastic, even though he had to concede 3 goals.
now, City has the same points as Arsenal with 49 points. However, City has the right to shift Arsenal's position in 2nd place. only 2 points behind the top of the standings and if Liverpool slip up, it will be a problem for Jurgen Klopp's team. well, let's see how the Premier League presents every week. because the competition is still quite exciting in terms of competition for trophies.

[rendravolt]

After the humiliating defeat at home to Wolves, there was a polemic regarding Pochettino's future fate as Chelsea coach. Now a glimmer of hope has returned for Pochettino after the Chelsea owner still supports him to handle Chelsea this season. He expressed his joy after receiving confirmation of the news and hoped that he and the other Chelsea players could close this season with good results.

We know that currently Chelsea is still slumped in 11th position in the standings and this is still the same as what they went through last season. There was hope that Pochettino could fix it this season but it doesn't seem like an easy job for a coach like him. Now the focus is on giving Chelsea another win in the future and Pochettino must remember that the Chelsea owners still believe in him so he has to prove it.

Maybe Chelsea just want to change the old tradition of easily firing coaches because yes, about Pochettino's failure so far this season then usually Chelsea can easily fire him. But at this moment, it looks like Chelsea will still give Pochettino a chance to at least appreciate the long process of building a great squad fo the future. But for this season, it is clear that there is no chance for Chelsea to finish in a better position in the European zone. So yes, if Pochettino continues to fail next season then of course, Pochettino will be fired but at least it will be interesting to wait, whether Pochettino will succeed or not next season with the support of the club like that.

But at least Chelsea can give Pochettino the opportunity to close out this season and not fire him before this season's work ends. Chelsea's image will get worse in the eyes of fans if they frequently change coaches and they should give their current coach more time for the process. Pochettino is a good coach, but if you look at the overhaul of the Chelsea squad that has occurred since last season, it certainly won't be easy to build.

Chelsea really doesn't have the slightest chance of breaking into the European zone this season and maybe when everything is arranged properly next season will be a proving ground for Pochettino to do his job better. But as you said, if Pochettino still fails next season, of course his fate will be threatened and Chelsea will definitely look for a replacement before the same result happens again.

That outstanding match is very important to them, and they will take it serious because that is the match that will make them top the table and push Liverpool behind if they win it.

This is 2hy I don't think that they will lose the match. However, it was when De Bruyne was in injury that Manchester city was unpredictable and they were losing their match, and that will not happen now that De Bruyne is back, because he is the engine of the club. Liverpool needs to improve their performance and stay focus to make sure that they are capable to taking every advantage from Manchester city to win this league, if not they will find it difficult to win the league.

[Abu-Naim]

I was expecting this statement and here it is boldly discussed . Klopp decision to leave the club was decided in the mid of the season and hence to announce to the world is the best so it doesn't get tense by the end of the season when he decided to leave and the club will prepare ahead of another coach which in my opinion is better, they wouldn't have to settle for rubbish manager just like the way Chelsea did in 2021 and till now, the position of the club has been compromised.

You're right—Jurgen Klopp gave them advance notice so they could begin making plans for his successor. Even though they have that in mind, some managers choose not to make this announcement. Instead, they put pressure on the team management to find a replacement quickly, which is typically bad for the team because, should they not be fortunate enough to have a good coach, the team's performance will decline until they find another stable and good manager.

Just because Arsenal hasn't been doing good, you don't think they don't deserve to win Liverpool right. I didn't pay too much attention to Liverpool this season not until I check their stats and I was shocked that they have only loss a single match, and they hve kept to that until they loss 2 days ago again. If Klopp continues to hold down and Salah comes back from Afcon, the team might stabilize a little bit and win some difficult matches ahead and still maintain the table.

Liverpool is having a great season more than Manchester City and Arsenal, they stand a chance to win the League because they have done all the necessary preparations; losing to Arsenal is not something they expected, but the absence of Mohammad Sallah affected their performance because he was the best player when they played Arsenal at Anfield. Nevertheless, Arsenal and Manchester City also have a chance to win the league if all of them keep performing great.

[topbitcoin]

What's more, about Salah injury certainly has a bad impact on the team's performance during a difficult competition like now because the points gap is close again. Although indeed,basically Liverpool also has a great effort that the team has with good chemistry as well in the squad but still, that Pep Guardiola with the full support received at the club also has a very good impact to Manchester City results will get in each match.

Ramy Abbas Issa who is the agent of Salah has now made a statement that Salah will fully recover in midle February and if you look at Salah uploads on social media actually IMO he has recovered it's just not fully able to play in the near future so in this case I think it's still not a problem for Liverpool because after all this condition is certainly good news.

The defeat here against Arsenal was indeed a crushing blow but it was not the end of everything because all situations still allow for a reversal in this case especially since Endo has also return from the Asian Cup because Japan has also been eliminated in this competition.
I think for now Salah injury is too exaggerated news because as if Salah injury is what makes Liverpool have to lose points against Arsenal even though even if Salah is not injured he is still unable to play because he is still in AFCON.

[Sexylizzy2813]

Chelsea has always been a great team that have so many achievement titles and all that but these days things haven't been going too well for the Blues, they have good players who can make even the top 4 teams to struggle to get a win not to talk about the smaller teams even a better coach (no doubt, Poche is a good coach), but they have been struggling and those guys who have been there to make things to always fall in line positively are nowhere to be found (Petr Čech and some other guys).
Is it that the current owners are the major cause of the fall of Chelsea, that they're not fit to be in charge of a football club such as Chelsea?
I mean this guy Todd Boehly and his partners they have been calling all the shots in this club especially the transfers and things have been going from bad to worse, if things continues like this I don't see the Blues competing in any Europe competitions but struggling to escape the relegation zone and they (The Blues) will lose good players.

now, City has the same points as Arsenal with 49 points. However, City has the right to shift Arsenal's position in 2nd place. only 2 points behind the top of the standings and if Liverpool slip up, it will be a problem for Jurgen Klopp's team. well, let's see how the Premier League presents every week. because the competition is still quite exciting in terms of competition for trophies.

I had predicted Pep Guardiola would get more serious this season after winning a lot of titles last season. If Pep Guardiola can win the Premier League title this season, it will be their 4th title in 4 consecutive seasons. Indeed, it is difficult to stop the dominance and prevent Pep Guardiola's fantastic record as a coach, he is a role model for some other coaches.

But this season the title competition should be better. Pep Guardiola knows that Jurgen Klopp will make the most of his final season to win the title, but I can imagine that Klopp's struggle to get his second title in the Premier League will not be easy if Manchester City leads the standings. Manchester City is a solid, complete team, so they are always favorites in any match. Jurgen Klopp certainly has to try harder if he wants to win the title and of course there will be a lot of drama in the next 15 matches until the end of the season.

[Stepstowealth]

That outstanding match is very important to them, and they will take it serious because that is the match that will make them top the table and push Liverpool behind if they win it.  

Manchester City will win that game, their confidence is high, and most of their key players have returned back. Before Manchester City will loose a game, it will take a really strong and disciplined team with a tactical manager. Arsenal maybe may be able to defeat them again, but it will be harder this time with De Bruyne back to the team and already resettling in. Football is not always predictable, maybe one small team may just win Manchester City, but without the factor of the probability of something happening, Manchester City will win the premier league title again.

[BitcoinHunt3r]

But at least Chelsea can give Pochettino the opportunity to close out this season and not fire him before this season's work ends. Chelsea's image will get worse in the eyes of fans if they frequently change coaches and they should give their current coach more time for the process.

But as you said, if Pochettino still fails next season, of course his fate will be threatened and Chelsea will definitely look for a replacement before the same result happens again.

Exactly, that's what Chelsea needs for now. Building a solid squad, of course requires several processes not enough with just one season moreover Chelsea condition was really messy last season. Pochettino has the ability to do it we can see the results in some match it's just that Chelsea is inconsistent well, one of the important tasks for Pochettino is to make Chelsea consistent in every game and consistency can be achieved through compactness. For this season Chelsea may only target at least in the top 10 or up 2 ranks from last season, then in the next season Chelsea must be in the top 5 well this is the process that Chelsea wants.

Apart from that, Pochettino needs to overhaul the team and release several players who are not contributing more, we know that currently Chelsea has a high budget and expenses to pay expensive players but unfortunately the results did not match expectations therefore, the best way to minimize expenses is needed. Apart from that, Chelsea also needs new players in defense because the current players are not enough to anticipate conceding.

[Rengga Jati]

That's still fine, teams lose points, and as long as they keep the fight going, they could still win the league. This doesn't mean to say Liverpool WILL win it, but just because they are 2 points ahead with one more game, doesn't mean they will lose it, City may lose that extra game, who knows?

Competition in the EPL is known to be very tight, at any time. So far, Liverpool is still in the top position of the EPL, but because of yesterday's defeat, they have the potential to be overtaken by Man City if they even play the remaining remaining matches. But once again, we still can't predict 100% who will end up as the EPL title holder this season. Because after all, the point difference between Liverpool, Man City and Arsenal is very tight. So it is still possible for one or the other to change their position.

Meanwhile, on the other hand, there are still 14 matches remaining in the EPL. So in other words, there is no 100% guarantee that they will continue to win in these 14 matches. So each club must really consistently optimize chances, not to underestimate them, or they also have to really minimize wasting chances and goals.

There are still 14 matches remaining and among those matches there are also several games where the top candidates of the Premier League play against each other. So there is nothing won or lost at this point, but I do think that Manchester City will claim the lead with the game they still have in hand. It's unlikely that they will miss out on that chance and I think once they claim the lead it will be difficult to force them into making any mistakes. That's exactly their game towards the end of the season as they have all the experience and all the quality and the depth in the squad to go those final steps and play perfectly until the season finishes.

[QueenVera]

The chance to bounce back is obviously big for city. It's matter of time till city will take the first place again. Even though city was not leading the game but the winning mentality made manchester city played the game so persistently. This makes me feel if manchester city may be winning the competition this season.
I do see that how city like gets back its spirit after de bruyne and haaland were joining in the main squad again. It should be 4 goals for city if haaland was not missing his shoot. City's defender was making a small blunder that cost the club cleansheet. Im not seeing it as a serious propblem caused by city could still get three points.
Brentford was always trying to do pressure through long ball. After the first goal happened and city knew how to play to prevent the long ball from brentford. Brentford was not pressing city really well through long ball.


The firsg goal was obviously a mistake from the defenders caused by i see that how the defenders was miscalculating the ball. I see that moments if the defenders were struggling but the situation becomes better when foden was scoring the first goal to equalize the score.
The brentford players were actually isolated in the second half. I do like the way city is playing the ball right now. It was building from the back but it's still very consistent in attacking and defending.

Well City is back with her full squad and you can see that with how the boys fought hard for the win yesterday. The determination in his squad is what gets other scared and think they should be crowned winner because of how they take on every match like it’s their very last. Well I still believe City could win this league again especially if Haaland gets his scoring boots back on because he missed quite alot of chances yesterday. Well Liverpool should be wary of this city side because they seem too determined to fail.

 They were a goal down and still came back to get the win away from home and not just that but also try to contain Brentford and all her balls which they tried to get through. Yes they had a goal through the blunder from a defender but that doesn’t still mean much of a worry as they can come through and get the win in each match.

[Belarge]

Pep Guardiola knows exactly what's he doing, he can fight his way to become another title frontrunner this season, he's always shocking everyone with his incredible qualities as top headcoach for City. There's absolutely nothing that doesn't come acrossed his mind because he's open to new ideas and keen on executing the appropriate ideas when necessary. Who can predict the winners of the EPL title this season? We are quite aware about the team's that hold firmly the big fights. Manchester City will only become confident when their opponent portray forms of weaknesses.

This is a very important factor for Man City, namely playing with their full main squad. Some of Man City's key players really have a huge impact and influence on Man City's performance. Like at the start of the season when several key players had to be absent due to injury, Man City seemed very overwhelmed to compete, especially against top clubs. Even though they are still good, there is something lacking and definitely not optimal. So they have been in second place for a long time and the gap in points is quite large. And that really changed when their main squad was actually a full team. Until now, they only had to chase a little bit to be able to take over first place. Their consistency is also getting better, especially with their coach, we will not doubt Pep when it comes to optimizing Man City.
