Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[zaim7413]

I think City will be champions this season. The deciding match will be against Liverpool in March. I bet City will win the EPL competition this season. Their performance is very good and we can see that with the recovery of Haaland and Kevin de Bruyne, City will be very strong. I hope City will return with a complete squad in the match against Everton later.

I don't think Pep will jeopardize any game in the EPL henceforth. He will be playing with his full squad against Everton provided that his key players are fit. Everton are desperately looking for points and they will be playing with a determined spirit and hope they do City some damage. Pep knows what's involved so I don think he will play this game without his full squad.

Pep Guardiola really understands the situation that Manchester City is facing in the standings, now is not the time to experiment with his squad, he will try to field the best squad in every match in order to bring his team back to control of the standings. The chase for points will still continue, this season is more competitive than before because the points collected by the teams in the top four of the standings are almost the same. The opportunity to return to the top of the standings is very big, Guardiola will not waste this opportunity by fielding his best squad even though the opponents he faces are not too tough.

Pep is currently not going to let any form of slack in his team because he knows there's no much time like before and the season is gradually winding up so they are to utilize every opportunity they get at this point as it may not avail it sef again after now so it's either they utilize opportunities now or it will not come again.

Even with the desperation that may be seen around Everton, I doubt they will be able to get three points from the present Manchester city squad that's complete and pep is going all in because he's getting prepared for the UCL aswell so it's an opportunity to get all the players especially those who has been away in awhile due to injury, all warmed up and getting back in form again on the field of play, with the present peps team, Everton may only try their best but it may not be enough and it's very fine if it's not enough because they are playing with a team that's a bit above their capacity.

I would consider it such a big joke or clownery to every think Aston villa will win the cup this season, they are not in the form that can give them such judging from their performance against Chelsea yesterday, they did tried but going by the competitiveness of that cup such performance isn't enough to give them the cup.

Chelsea has got good performance outside premier league, when it come to premier league game, they almost struggle to win and it's a challenge because the premier league is as important as the FA cup but then if they see a better future with the FA cup then it's actually not really bad idea if they are putting in their very best to secure that so they will have something to keep by the end of the season but then securing a spot for UCL by next season would have been a very fair achievement for them if they are able to get that in the premier league.

Only with the defeat in the FA Cup, I think you can't judge completely bad about Aston Villa only a weak team. Because after all, in the FA Cup at least the top Premier League team can also lose by a weak team . After all, if we consider the position of Aston Villa and Chelsea in the Premier League standings this moment it is also clear that Aston Villa is in a better position than Chelsea . Also, there is nothing wrong if previously some people wanted Aston Villa to win the Premier League title because ya, it can happen to every consistent team. Because anyway, at that time no one was really sure about Leicester success in winning the Premier League title but what happened now, in fact Leicester is no longer playing in the Premier League.

I would not be so hard on Aston Villa right now. But I will definitely say that they have become inconsistent. More inconsistent compared to what they have shown previously in this very season. I am watching people being very hard on them. But I think they are actually giving up on all other competitions to concentrate on the English Premier League. That could be a reason. But with that, they will have to perform better in the English Premier League because no excuse will be accepted. But to be honest I also do not think that they will actually be able to win the English Premier League title this season.

Pep Guardiola means everything to the club, he needs his team and they also need him for everything related to progress of the team. A difficult league, only the top team emerges claiming to be an exceptional club. Pep Guardiola has established himself as one of Manchester City's formidable premier coaches, and the club will play the Toffees this weekend. Everton are headed to the Etihad Stadium this weekend to face Pep Guardiola. Sean Dyche and his team have found themselves back in the relegation zone. It's been pretty disheartening to see a top side unable to withstand or accumulate three points.

I don't think Aston Villa had priority with FA Cup than their target for finishing on top fourth position standings, almost all premier league teams not priority with FA Cup and give chance for youth players get more minutes playing. Aston Villa had impressive performance in Premier League and their priority how get chance with Champion League spot standing finish this season than focus in FA Cup.
Its not much problem for Unai Emery after after eliminating from FA Cup although he was little disappointed with the match result.

I think that's not true, Aston Villa really tried to win the match against Chelsea in the FA Cup, but they failed because Chelsea's finishing was more effective. If Aston Villa's main priority was only about qualifying for next season's Champions League, then they might have lost in the previous round instead of progressing to the fourth round of the FA Cup. So your assumption may not be correct even though Unai Emery has made several player rotations so that his team remains fit when they face Manchester United this weekend in the Premier League.

Aston Villa's game wasn't bad compared to Chelsea, but they had difficulty finding goals throughout the match despite having 5 shots on target. Chelsea were effective today, 3 out of 5 shots on target became goals which saw them through to the 5th round.

Aston Villa's points in Premier League not really gap difference with Tottenham Hotspur, they won't loss great opportunity in this season to be top fourth standings team than have to win FA Cup and make the players focus losses for the result in Premier League match. Finish as top fourth standings team is better achieving than become the FA Cup winner because has highest level compete for playing in Champion League next season for Aston Villa.

Unai Emery realizes that there is an opportunity for them to fight for in the Premier League this season. Aston Villa have 15 games until the end of the season and they will fight hard to stay in the Champions League places, but they should not give up a good chance at the FA Cup by losing to Chelsea. Anything can still happen in the next 15 matches, even Aston Villa is not very sure that they can beat Manchester United at the weekend.

I agree. Pep Guardiola would do anything to win the league. He is presented with a very big opportunity to top the league so there's no way he won't play with his full squad.
Man City struggled a lot at the beginning of the season, but now they've gotten their form back. They might finish the remaining games of the league season without even dropping a point in any game.

He would try to rotate his players at some point though because of the Champions League. It's difficult to say which Man City prefers most between the league and the Champions League. To me, I believe they would choose the league if offered the choice of picking just one. They won the UCL last season and this season they'll mostly want to set the record of winning the EPL in four consecutive seasons.

Has Pep Guardiola jeopardized any game or intentionally fielded the wrong players?  He would always field players that he thinks are good for the game and we shouldn't also forget that Manchester City is also chasing other trophies like the UCL. Players needs to be rotated to ensure that key players don't suffer from too much workload. Everton might not be a hard team to win by City because they have not been at their best since the point reduction.  Pep knows exactly what to do because he is not new to EPL games.

Clubs don't misuse opportunities so I think Aston Villa also had interest in winning the FA Cup because it would have secured an automatic qualification for the UEFA Europa League. Being knocked out of the competition is painful because they only have the EPL to qualify for any European competition. They are in a good position to qualify for the Champions League if they keep putting up with their impressive performance.

It will be really interesting this week with the Aston Villa vs Man United match a lot of people are discussing here after last night's defeat at home by Chelsea maybe some predictions the hosts will win but that's a different reality because Chelsea proved in the FA match.

What's interesting about the Aston Villa vs Man United odds is that both teams have vastly different odds.

@2.16 - @3.10

There is no influence for the bookies even though Aston Villa suffered a defeat in the FA, who dares to take that big Man United bet?
Of course here I myself how to doubt Man United will win but it could be that yesterday's defeat could affect Aston Villa's performance in the Premier League.
So make sure the host usually plays will be good enough and reconsider your bet.

It's been pretty disheartening to see a top side unable to withstand or accumulate three points.

In fact, in the first meeting or match this season when Manchester City played away against Everton without Bruyne and without Haaland that time, in fact Manchester City still managed to beat Everton and also with a big score of 1-3. Therefore, it does not seem likely for Everton to be able to hold Manchester City, moreover Everton in this match will also play away.

Indeed, I also really hope for points for Everton, of course, so that Everton is not relegated. But yes, because the opponent that Everton will face is Manchester City and also basically Manchester City still need three points in each match of course to return to the top of the Premier League standings. So yes, playing at home against Everton who are in difficult situations and conditions this moment, then this factor will make Manchester City maximize this moment of course to still getting full points.

Quite logical odds considering that Aston Villa is in the top 4, they have a goal difference of +11, and United is in 6th place and they have a negative goal difference (-1 haha). x3 always looks attractive in an “unclear” game, but in this case I like the bet on Aston Villa: +116% for one game is a lot. As for the Cup, not all teams take it seriously.

[tbterryboy]

Aston Villa is Aston Villa, it's really a big joke some people thinks they might able to become a champion in this season. Right now Aston Villa can only win against small team and lose against big team, the upcoming match they will face Manchester United, the most popular team in Premier League.

So this will be an easy match for Manchester United.

Seeing the Aston Villa match against Chelsea was very stunning in my opinion, where Chelsea had a disciplined match both in defense and attack, the defense against Aston Villa was much tighter and more solid, this was an extraordinary match for Chelsea, especially the free kick by Enzo was very cool in my opinion.

Most likely Aston Villa lost the match because Manchester United is in good progress lately and they managed to consistently not lose any more points, while Aston villa lost its consistency in the last five matches.

In this game, we have performance from both sides on same level but lack of finishing bring down Aston Villa which is still having reaction of the Manchester United lost with in last five games they have only one win with 2 loses and 2 draws clearly indicating their trend is going down and things could be not good against Manchester United as well which is also trying to have better things in coming matches no doubt Chelsea done impressive job and started good after having worst lost at home this mind-set give them good change and perfect win.

Enzo Fernández is surely impressive and could be good for the next games as well which can make things easier for the Chelsea, which is already having too many quality players, but their depth is not allowing them to have better results, and they are struggling again in this season with unpredictable results.

[Furious 7]

You are right, in fact we doubt Manchester City can compete for the champion candidates this season but  Manchester City can prove its ability after playing with a complete squad and this week Manchester City will be at the top of the standings after defeating Everton on February 18. If Manchester City keep playing with the current squad then they can win again this season, the only main competitor for Manchester City is Liverpool while Liverpool lost in the last fight, Manchester City can take advantage of it.

I think City will be champions this season. The deciding match will be against Liverpool in March. I bet City will win the EPL competition this season. Their performance is very good and we can see that with the recovery of Haaland and Kevin de Bruyne, City will be very strong. I hope City will return with a complete squad in the match against Everton later.

Indeed, when looking at the current schedule Manchester City will meet Liverpool in March but if it is used as a benchmark for the trophy I think it is too soon. This is the EPL with all the surprises that are sure to happen and 1 big match where both clubs are fighting for the top position cannot be used as a benchmark because after all we must be aware that there are several possibilities that occur in other matches.

We take the example of last season where Arsenal were already ahead by 10 points but ended up in second place with a difference of 5 points at the end of the season with Manchester City because there were several situations that required Arsenal to experience a decline in performance and lose several matches. Possibilities like this are also definitely possible to happen especially in March the EPL will only enter week 28 (when Liverpool and Manchester City meet) so that there are still 10 matches left and there are still several possibilities that might occur in the remaining 10 weeks.

Man City struggled a lot at the beginning of the season, but now they've gotten their form back. They might finish the remaining games of the league season without even dropping a point in any game.

He would try to rotate his players at some point though because of the Champions League. It's difficult to say which Man City prefers most between the league and the Champions League. To me, I believe they would choose the league if offered the choice of picking just one. They won the UCL last season and this season they'll mostly want to set the record of winning the EPL in four consecutive seasons.

I don't think Guadiola will be keeping his full squad on the beach because they need the league trophy again, since Liverpool are mistakenly losing points against Arsenal and they give Manchester City hope to get the title this season, and I'm still giving Liverpool hope if they can manage and continue winning matches, but if Liverpool just lose any match now, I don't think Liverpool can win the league again because Manchester City are already in good shape and he will be very hard Klopp should attempt to win a trophy this season before leaving Liverpool. because he said he is departing at the end of the season and he will do his best to win the league because is only Klopp that can stop guadiola for winning the Premier league. guadiola will be very happy when Klopp leave Liverpool because he will be the Champions on the league if they didn't get coach like xavi Alonso in the premier league guadiola will be winning the league every season.

[bering]

Wolves gets 6 wins from 10 matches in all competitions and they only lost twice i think these are impressive records from them especially last week Wolves have been successfully to beat Chelsea with big scores at Stamford Bridge so Wolves in the good conditions and this weekend Wolves will gets easy opponent Brentford and if we compared between the latest performance of these teams obviously Wolves is much better  and on the paper this match should be belongs to Wolves

I thought after win from Nottingham Forest few weeks ago and Ivan Toney return to play again Brentford will be able to bounce back again but i was wrong about that because after that match Brentford was suffering 2 losing streak at Premier league and these results makes Brentford position was in danger because they only have 3 difference points above to the teams from relegation zone and both teams have been met 3 times during this season with Wolves gets 2 wins and 1 draw about squad condition Wolves probably still unable to played Hee-Chan Hwang because he just return from defend South Korea at Asian Cup but although if Wolves will playing without this player but my prediction is Wolves will be able to overcomes Brentford

So this will be an easy match for Manchester United.

Of course, Aston Villa are not the best team in the world. But I think we shouldn't underestimate them either. Manchester United is not playing very well this year, I think it is not easy to predict the next match.
Manchester United cannot win this match easily, we will watch a competitive match. Both teams have a chance to win, we may see a surprise result. If we say that both teams can score, we can place a bet that will win more easily

In this season we have few surprises with every team which touch the top spot then having troubling time and suffered badly and now just Manchester City and Arsenal back in business with Tottenham and Aston Villa are still in trouble which is not surprising because these teams are not having enough sources for competing at the top and Aston Villa which is also having same problem now suffering currently they are at the fourth and next game is surely going to have big impact on them.

If they won against Manchester United then surely we can expect good fight until end for the fourth spot otherwise things can go wrong for them with Tottenham and Manchester United both are trying their best for bringing them down and jumping above.

Manchester City's performance is now very stable after De Bruyne's return to the squad. De Bruyne and Haaland return to the squad after recovering from injury. If this duo is able to perform consistently well like last season, then Manchester City will be able to maintain the winning streak.

Manchester City has a chance to go to the top of the points table. Liverpool team managed to get 51 points in 23 matches. Manchester City has achieved 49 points in 22 matches. Manchester City will be able to grab the top spot in the points table if they win their next match against Everton. The Premier League has been very busy this season. Liverpool, City and Arsenal are all three likely to win the title.

A return of De Bruyne is very helpful for Manchester City but he still has limited time of contribution for them. He was used cleverly by Pep because he only returns from a serious injury and long recovery time. He made good contribution for them after his return but I disagree with opinion that latest good performances of Manchester City are mainly contributed by De Bruyne. He is only one piece of their team and even has yet began in their squad.

Manchester City has a chance to go to the top of the points table. Liverpool team managed to get 51 points in 23 matches. Manchester City has achieved 49 points in 22 matches. Manchester City will be able to grab the top spot in the points table if they win their next match against Everton. The Premier League has been very busy this season. Liverpool, City and Arsenal are all three likely to win the title.

Manchester City has one extra match and they can claim the first position if they win an extra match. Liverpool are probably very fearful with pressure from Manchester City because they know if Manchester City take over a first position, they will possibly hold it very tightly.

In latest seasons, Manchester City can speedy run in last months of seasons and win Premier League. It seems they are repeating this style in this season to defend their title again.

Manchester City's performance is now very stable after De Bruyne's return to the squad. De Bruyne and Haaland return to the squad after recovering from injury. If this duo is able to perform consistently well like last season, then Manchester City will be able to maintain the winning streak.

Of course, Kevin De Bruyne is a midfielder who can really make a big contribution to Manchester City's game. The impact of De Bruyne's recovery is felt from how he contributed to several goals created through his assists, this is what fans are waiting for the most. Haaland has also returned, but he still seems to have difficulty scoring goals even though he can provide assists to other players.

Manchester City has a chance to go to the top of the points table. Liverpool team managed to get 51 points in 23 matches. Manchester City has achieved 49 points in 22 matches. Manchester City will be able to grab the top spot in the points table if they win their next match against Everton. The Premier League has been very busy this season. Liverpool, City and Arsenal are all three likely to win the title.

Compared to before, Manchester City now has the opportunity to take the top of the standings after Liverpool lost to Arsenal. Manchester City have 1 match in hand which they can use to collect more points than Liverpool, but that's for now because Manchester City must ensure 3 important wins in the next 3 matches before playing the postponed match.

The matches against Everton and Chelsea may not be easy, but with the return of De Bruyne and Haaland there is good hope for Manchester City to win. Chelsea held Manchester City to a draw in their first meeting this season, so this time Manchester City will probably try to beat Chelsea in the second meeting.

[baeva]

out that if Chelsea sack Pochettino it will cost them money and they will be in breach of the ffp. But all I can see is that Chelsea have become an average club who are trying to get out of this situation but can't, precisely because of squad problems. They have spent tens of millions on players who don't play at all and don't suit the team

Chelsea needs to stop buying players because other trans are going for them and target players who can fulfill the loopholes in the team. Arsenal bought Jorginho because they needed someone to calm down the pressure at their central midfield when the tension is very high and also deliver accurate and intelligent passes when possible. Chelsea on the other hand just buy players for buying sake, I still don't know why Chelsea bought Jackson.

In The last transfer window, Chelsea just ended up eating lots of funds without achieving anything in particular. Gone are the days when Chelsea buys great players to win trophies, now they only buy players because they are young. Most times, these very young players are so immature and inexperienced that they don't deliver optimally.

Given their state of affairs it's no wonder top players don't go to them, is it? And besides, they seem to be unable to rationally assess the value of players, because looking at their squad - it would be more correct to pay half as much for these players, maybe even three times less.

[Ryu_Ar1]

Now it's really just a matter of trusting the process and starting from scratch not necessarily too fast but definitely moving in a better direction but it seems Todd still doesn't realize that.

Todd doesn't understand that at all. I have been saying this since he took over at Chelsea. He thinks getting players is all it takes. He's just spending money, buying every available players and youngster, but it's obvious that strategy is not working.

What he should have done is get board members that know what they're doing. Get the right sporting directors and let them put their heads together and hire a good coach. A coach that can handle a rebuilding project. That coach should be able to pick the players he wants the club to sign and the clubs do whatever they can to sign the coach's choice. The coach will choose players who can work with him, and players who understand his style. This should have been the first step for Chelsea. Instead, they just went ahead and bought a player for a coach that hoat has not proved himself at the top level.

To make everything worse they hired Lampard after sacking Potter and they hired Pochettino. These are decisions that show they don't know what they're doing up there.
What Chelsea needs now is a proper rebuild. They should forget about trophies, they should go back to the drawing board and start from the beginning. Right every wrong that they have made and that starts with getting the right people for each job.

Until now Todd is still focused on what he does about managing players and coaches but they don't realize that there are more important things where the role of club officials such as sporting directors or the role of Cech and Marina Granovskaia at Chelsea in several years of service must also be replaced with the right people because if not then the chaos will definitely happen just like now.

As for the coach's problem, it also depends on the top brass too in the end because in my opinion whoever the coach is will still be blamed because indeed if the performance remains the same then it is certain that the coach will be criticized regardless of whether it is Lampard and Poche or there are other great coaches then indeed when Chelsea's performance remains the same then it will be criticized because it is considered unable to bring good performance to Chelsea.

So instead of just criticizing who was brought in even though there are still many good coaches out there but we also know that Poche yesterday was the last option after De Zerbi refused and what must be done now is to entrust it completely to Poche in order to improve Chelsea's performance properly.
