Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[tusandii]

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.

Now we are heading for the 24th round with no relaxation time for any team with Pepe is surely now having his full team which is ready to give his best because due to injuries they already suffered, and now two opponents are ready to challenge them for the top spot so most chances which team will try to do any experiment will face consequences which are surely lost of the title because things are not easy for any team just 2 points difference and any poor performance can bring them down.

Haaland and Kevin de Bruyne are ready for giving their best, and they are having enough sources which can give them good results which will make things easier for them in coming matches as well in Premier League and Champions League as well.

I'm sure everyone will say this because they still believe in the return of De Bruyne and Haaland is able to give a very strong performance and return as before.
The strength of Haaland and De Bruyne's cooperation is very solid and it is very difficult against Manchester City when these two players have returned to appearing together on the field. Almost all clubs in the Premier League are always afraid when playing against this club because it is very difficult to stop these two players who have a great enthusiasm to help club to dominate the premier league.

The return of Haaland and De Bruyne gives happiness to Pep Guardiola who can easily win the Premier League title this season and everything has been proven after the return of these players makes it very difficult for several clubs competing against Manchester City and we always see good cooperation from De Bruyne and Haaland.
This season the talented players have returned and it is time for other clubs that once got rid of MC to be shifted back and Liverpool is one of the clubs that will be got rid of by MC and it won't be long before we will be very happy to see the surprise given by Guardiola.

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.

If we consider Liverpool and Manchester City both won their games until facing each other then yeah. The game between these teams will probably be the most important one for the league title. 

Because until then Manchester City will have played their missing game against Brentford at Etihad. Probably they will win without much problem as well. This will already help them take the lead by one point from Liverpool. Therefore Liverpool should have been able to stay solid against Arsenal at least in defense.    I didn't like Alisson in that game either as he conceded two simple goals.

[karabiber]

Yeah I agree with you that anything can still happen towards the end of the season and there is no guarantee that Manchester City can win all the remaining matches. Honestly I would like to see another team like Arsenal or Liverpool win the title this season not Manchester City but of course it is not easy to beat Manchester City this means that apart from ability, luck is also needed.

In the next match, Manchester City will play Everton, which will give Manchester City the opportunity to find additional points easily. So far, Everton should be very easy to beat, and Manchester City must win to get additional points in the standings to take first place from Liverpool.

I doubt Everton could stand much against Manchester City which should hold the first place after that match at least for a day until Liverpool's match against Burnley.
I would say that Manchester City could win easily with 2 goals difference.
For Liverpool  they could also score at least two goals when facing Burnley in Anfield.
What might be a good thing for them is to see gunners dropping points vs West Ham United

M.City won an easy victory over Brentford in their last league game with the dominance of their attacking players. It was M.City's ninth win in a row and they remain two points behind Liverpool in the title race with one game in hand. Everton, on the other hand, have been struggling with draws in recent games. Most recently they drew against Tottenham after a poor start. Everton are trying to move away from the bottom but the opponent is M.City. It will be very difficult for Everton to take points away from M.City.

West Ham fell short of expectations against Manchester United last weekend and went down to defeat. West Ham are without a win in their last six official matches and manager Moyes' position is precarious. If Moyes wants to secure his place at West Ham, he needs to get the team back on track as soon as possible, but it is difficult in these conditions. Arsenal, on the other hand, have won their last three games and are back in the title race. Consecutive wins have boosted Arsenal's morale. The performances of Saka and Martinelli in the win over Liverpool were noteworthy and Arsenal have been making few defensive mistakes lately. Based on the current form of Arsenal's attacking players and West Ham's poor form, I think Arsenal will score at least two goals and leave this match with a win.

It seems to me that Liverpool is not a team that can play all the games without failure, the same goes for Arsenal, Tottenham and Aston Villa, they all lose points. And City have no big failures compared to them, which is why they are able to be leaders for so many years. Guardeola managed to create a stable team, he knows how to maintain high results, his players don’t have many injuries, which means he knows how to find a balance between training and a busy game schedule, this is important for the Premier League team.

[ancafe]

I can boast about the defenders of Arsenal eve if they make errors, they now have Tomiyasu and also Jurim Timber back from the Asian Cup Competition and also the later returning back from a long Injury. Having them back is a huge plus as they'll be used both for the Champions League Competition and the Premier League Competition.

I don't know about them attackers but they failed to add one more support in midfied, since player's like Elleny and Thomas Partey has refused to be consistent with the club.
Nothing much to say about Manchester United, they're inconsistent. Tottenham Hotspur are progressing fine, they have almost every player back now and fit for selections.

The presence of these two players will definitely increase the strength of Arsenal's bottom line for the better and even though Tomiyasu is not always played as a starter by Arteta. Arsenal has quite a busy match schedule in both the Premier League and Champions League so their strength must be really complete because of the many matches they have to play. The midfield and front line also need to be evaluated a little so that Arsenal can continue to compete with their challengers.

Tottenham is not much better than Manchester United because they were only consistent at the start of the season, but now they are not much different from Manchester United. It is certain that competition in the top four of the standings will become tighter and if the two teams want to overtake Aston Villa's position then they must be more consistent than before.

I agree with this. What makes Man City the favorite to maintain the EPL league this season is because they have a balanced squad of both core players and reserve players, which makes their performance stable. Apart from that, Man City does not have many injured players because the injured players have recovered. The most phenomenal thing is the return of de Bruyne. Of course, the map of EPL league candidates shifted drastically to Man City.

Liverpool and Arsenal often make unnecessary mistakes against small teams so they often lose points. Initially I thought Liverpool could be consistent but after seeing the number of injured players, especially Salah and losing to Arsenal last week, I doubt they can win the EPL title this season.

Almost all clubs in the Premier League are always afraid when playing against this club because it is very difficult to stop these two players who have a great enthusiasm to help club to dominate the premier league.

Everyone who has watched Manchester City matches will give the same comments as you, Manchester City performance immediately declined when De Bruyne was unable to play. It cannot be denied, De Bruyne is one of the players who is able to change the game, his presence makes other players seem to follow the rhythm of his game.
Manchester City attacks are more lively and focused, he is also very often the creator in the process of scoring goals. Haaland's task is easier if De Bruyne is on the pitch, the connection between these two players can bring Manchester City to a level of success.

[RockBell]

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.

And if City is playing against Liverpool city might have the best chance to win against Liverpool and if Salah is not even back then it will make things worse, and people talking about City and Liverpool I hope you guys have not forgotten that Arsenal is still very much available and we win against Liverpool gives us more strength, to be able to challenge anybody we want, it looks like we are getting back on track. I know a lot of people still have an assurance that Manchester City will still win the EPL but I do not think that is certain yet because the battle this season is even more difficult for them than last season, I don't know for Haaland but de bruyne i can say there is a possibility that that guy will always continue to be a problem to there opponents.

If we consider Liverpool and Manchester City both won their games until facing each other then yeah. The game between these teams will probably be the most important one for the league title.

Therefore Liverpool should have been able to stay solid against Arsenal at least in defense.    I didn't like Alisson in that game either as he conceded two simple goals.

And if they face each other Manchester City will win and then maybe a draw, and even if we don't win the trophy I will want Liverpool to win it let there be change Manchester city has been the one winning it, and even the champions league I don't want them to win it also, and the missing game of Manchester city against Brentford is just another easy one for Manchester City. and Arsenal is there to look for ways to also penetrate the two clubs if it is not for the lack of consistency for Arsenal they will win today and lose tomorrow and that is not what we need now.

You are right. If KDB and Haaland had not been injured for a long time, I think City would have really dominated the English league and could be up to 8 points ahead of other teams. City's defeats and bad results in the last few matches were because Kevin De Bruyne and Haaland did not play together. Haaland without De Bruyne will make it difficult for him to get the ball. And kdb without Haaland will waste a lot of opportunities in front of goal. So I think the return of those two players will greatly improve City's overall quality.

[Bobrox]

Apart from that, Man City does not have many injured players because the injured players have recovered. The most phenomenal thing is the return of de Bruyne. Of course, the map of EPL league candidates shifted drastically to Man City.

Since the early Premier League match start, Manchester City had losses their key player Kevin De Bruyne and absent almost 15 matches in domestic league all group phase matches in Champion League, but its not much problem because Manchester City have balanced well with their current players composition. There are has many option for replacing when key players get injury and Pep Guardiola can put well their players with many position such as Julian Alvarez moving down as attacking midfielder when De Bruyne Injury.

This special thing why Manchester City near close as favorite Premier League winner in this season and they have good balanced with composition teams, right now all composition have been completed after Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne returning from injury will make easy for Pep Guardiola playing with the formation he want and easily making rotation when Manchester City playing in Champion League knock out round match.

[Blitzboy]

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.

Now we are heading for the 24th round with no relaxation time for any team with Pepe is surely now having his full team which is ready to give his best because due to injuries they already suffered, and now two opponents are ready to challenge them for the top spot so most chances which team will try to do any experiment will face consequences which are surely lost of the title because things are not easy for any team just 2 points difference and any poor performance can bring them down.

Haaland and Kevin de Bruyne are ready for giving their best, and they are having enough sources which can give them good results which will make things easier for them in coming matches as well in Premier League and Champions League as well.

I'm sure everyone will say this because they still believe in the return of De Bruyne and Haaland is able to give a very strong performance and return as before.

Fully agree. De Bruyne and Haaland play like a well-oiled machine. Manchester City's cohesion is a nightmare for other teams. City's game becomes more dynamic and unpredictable with De Bruyne's smart passes and Haaland's finishing. Any team has to dread this duo.

I've witnessed De Bruyne's absence dampen City's flair. The pitch is his chessboard because he amplifies everyone's performance. De Bruyne's vision greatly benefits Haaland. Goals boost team morale and performance, not simply score marks. Their comeback is predicted; City must dominate again.

[Salahmu]

West Ham fell short of expectations against Manchester United last weekend and went down to defeat. West Ham are without a win in their last six official matches and manager Moyes' position is precarious. If Moyes wants to secure his place at West Ham, he needs to get the team back on track as soon as possible, but it is difficult in these conditions. Arsenal, on the other hand, have won their last three games and are back in the title race.

Manchester United is slowly advancing on the premier League table by securing the six position on the table, I didn't no that Manchester United will even get to the position they are now on the premier League table because there performance at the beginning of this season was very bad that they hardly win any match and because of there inconsistency then they lose to so many smaller team they had privilege to win but however after all those losing they still tried to have maintained the position they are currently on, although there match against West Ham United they tried very well because to an extent I was thinking that West Ham United will tried all there possible best in other to hold Manchester United to a draw but it was quite unfortunate for them that Manchester United performance has really improve than before, however the chances of West Ham United advancing more on the premier League table is very low because there next match will not be easy on them because they will be meeting Arsenal and we all no what Arsenal has been on this season in times of performance so that match is very certain that Arsenal will win West Ham United.

[Uruhara]

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.

Seeing Man City's performance after De Bruyne's return will also make people who watch it will be optimistic again to be able to see Man City win the title again this season. Because there has been a very significant increase after De Bruyne returned. Man City's attacking line became more pampered thanks to the highly qualified midfielder. For now Haaland has not seen a return to his best performance. But I'm sure in the next few games Haaland will also return to the best performance he has and return to harmonise with De Bruyne and make Man City's attack even better. I admire how Pep Guardiola has been able to keep Man City in form when De Bruyne hasn't returned and when Haaland was injured. I think the best coach this season should be Pep Guardiola again.

[Polkeins]

It is clear that in the EPL Chelsea is not waiting for anything good, so they can just focus on the cup and it is in the cup Chelsea plays more confident. Maybe because the players do not feel such pressure for the result as in the EPL, but in the cup Chelsea plays much better and more interesting, scoring 3-4 goals and different and from standards and from the game.

There is no sense to fire Pocchetino before the end of the season, the team should spend at least a year without personnel changes and see what happens. 

Yes, it won't affect anything by changing the coach for now before the end of the season, after all why do most people always think it's easy to change coaches so quickly, do they never believe in the process, after all Pocchetino needs time to make Chelsea better from their downturn even though in EPL they are ranked 11th but in other league championships they play very well. It is indeed difficult to be consistent and divide your time from a busy match schedule, I believe in the process and ability of Pocchetino, the results are not yet visible at this time, at least wait until the end of the season

Whether he is able to boost Chelsea's position in the top 10 or not, if he is successful maybe he needs to be given a few more seasons to find the right game for his team, so far Pocchetino has been quite right with Chelsea, it just takes time to see. the result of that long process, I'm not a Chelsea fan but I think changing coaches is not a good way to see the development of a club. especially since the coach hasn't coached several seasons, that's impossible.

This time around there is a feeling that Chelsea management will let Pocchietino work until the end of the season, perhaps the only reason he could be sacked is relegation from the EPL, but for now that is not a viable option.

I think that if Chelsea finish 8th or higher, Pocchietino will be retained for next season, if lower, then most likely his contract will be terminated.
While Chelsea resembles a "dark horse", because the potential of the team is great, the players are collected very good, some like Enzo and Cole Palmer may well grow into stars of the first magnitude, but so far the potential of the team is realized only partially, mainly in games against average and weak teams or in cup matches, where the pressure on Chelsea players is not so strong.

I quite agree with this and even Haaland also has quite a hard time scoring goals without Kevin De Bruyne. It cannot be denied that Kevin De Bruyne's influence on the Manchester City team is quite large and what was most surprising was that when Kevin De Bruyne recovered from his long injury he was able to immediately at the top of his performance, this is truly an extraordinary player.

With the return of Kevin De Bruyne, now Manchester City's performance is immediately different and much better and I think now no one will be able to stop them but I also don't underestimate the other top teams in the Premier League, and I think with the return of Man City His top performance has made competition at the top for trophies this season even fiercer, that cannot be denied and indeed the Premier League is like that almost every season.

[Coyster]

I've witnessed De Bruyne's absence dampen City's flair. The pitch is his chessboard because he amplifies everyone's performance. De Bruyne's vision greatly benefits Haaland. Goals boost team morale and performance, not simply score marks. Their comeback is predicted; City must dominate again.

There is no doubt that City greatly missed Kevin De Bruyne when he was absent, and prolly Erling missed him the most individually, because Kevin creates a lot of big chances and that gives the Norwegian many more opportunities to score goals. Nonetheless we cannot take anything away from Julian Alvarez who replaced the belgian when he was absent and played in that role excellently, the Argentine has been an absolute bargain for the Ctizens and that is another proof that City's recruitment process is the best in the world.

Pep has got himself a "good" headache, because Julian Alvarez is now indispensable in this City team and now that KDB is back, he would be forced to play them both together and maybe change his tactics/formation a little bit.

[ShowOff]

I can boast about the defenders of Arsenal eve if they make errors, they now have Tomiyasu and also Jurim Timber back from the Asian Cup Competition and also the later returning back from a long Injury.

Arsenal has quite a busy match schedule in both the Premier League and Champions League so their strength must be really complete because of the many matches they have to play. The midfield and front line also need to be evaluated a little so that Arsenal can continue to compete with their challengers.

Arsenal is certainly still better than several other teams, but they shouldn't get too excited even though they previously managed to beat Liverpool with a promising score. This week Arsenal will visit West Ham's headquarters and we can be sure that it will be another fierce match that will make Arsenal have to work hard to win.

Having a more complete squad means Arteta has many options if his initial plans don't go well. West Ham will certainly try to provide the best resistance at home after failing to win their last 6 matches in several competitions. Arsenal's probability of winning is certainly very promising, but West Ham should be wary.

Tottenham is not much better than Manchester United because they were only consistent at the start of the season, but now they are not much different from Manchester United. It is certain that competition in the top four of the standings will become tighter and if the two teams want to overtake Aston Villa's position then they must be more consistent than before.

I don't completely agree, Tottenham has collected more than Manchester United and that proves that Tottenham is better than Manchester United. Regardless of the current performance of the two teams, Tottenham has a better chance of winning this week against Brighton than Manchester United vs Aston Villa.

Kevin De Bruyne's presence is like life for Manchester City, proven that without his presence the game seems directionless. Pep Guardiola certainly realizes that he failed to get the right replacement player during the transfer window yesterday. Gundogan's exit in midfield also failed to be covered by Kovacic so KDB is always needed to be in the squad. Statistically, Haaland's goal tally also stagnated due to a lack of supply from the midfield. So it is very clear that currently KDB is a figure who cannot be replaced in the starting line-up.

[QueenVera]

M.City won an easy victory over Brentford in their last league game with the dominance of their attacking players. It was M.City's ninth win in a row and they remain two points behind Liverpool in the title race with one game in hand. Everton, on the other hand, have been struggling with draws in recent games. Most recently they drew against Tottenham after a poor start. Everton are trying to move away from the bottom but the opponent is M.City. It will be very difficult for Everton to take points away from M.City.

West Ham fell short of expectations against Manchester United last weekend and went down to defeat. West Ham are without a win in their last six official matches and manager Moyes' position is precarious. If Moyes wants to secure his place at West Ham, he needs to get the team back on track as soon as possible, but it is difficult in these conditions. Arsenal, on the other hand, have won their last three games and are back in the title race. Consecutive wins have boosted Arsenal's morale. The performances of Saka and Martinelli in the win over Liverpool were noteworthy and Arsenal have been making few defensive mistakes lately. Based on the current form of Arsenal's attacking players and West Ham's poor form, I think Arsenal will score at least two goals and leave this match with a win.

Manchester City are now having their full squad back and this means fire for other Epl teams most especially Liverpool. As you can see their strong determination in the win over Brentford how the whole team fought so hard to earn the victory. Now they’re 2 points away from Liverpool and their next match happens to be with Everton. Everton at the moment aren’t having the best time as they’re still sitting around relegation zone and have had poor results lately.

 For this match, I think City will triump and get a point away from Liverpool thereby seeing them in top of the league. Westh Ham who’re having poor run of form fell to a loss to Manchester United as they continue to be going down the drail in terms of form. The coach needs to get this team back on track so as to be able to secure European spot and with these kind of form, I think they’ll be having issue partaking in the UEL. Their next match is Arsenal and they must be very determined to take on this Arsenal side and get at least a drAw from this fixture.

Manchester City is apparently in its best condition with Kevin De Bruyne getting back from injury. Julian Alvarez demonstrated his importance and I am certain we can see Pep making adjustments and creating a room for the two of them.

Tomorrow Manchester City gets the opportunity to assume control over the top rating. But Liverpool is not permitting it to and will beat Burnley as well. But assuming there is a surprising outcome for the two leading clubs, I will give it to Liverpool because its certainty may be a little low after that disheartening loss from the Gunners.
