Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Jossque]

Manchester City managed to defeat Everton at home with Haaland's goals.City managed to play a dominant game against Everton, but I think City didn't want to push too hard because of the champions league match to be played in the week, otherwise they played with the potential to score more goals against Everton.
Another title contender Liverpool host Burnley at home.Liverpool started the second half fast after a 1-1 draw in the first half against Burnley.Liverpool scored in the second half to go 2-1 up.Liverpool are playing more dominant than their opponents and will most probably win.

[khiholangkang]

What the hell with Manchester City, they only dominating the ball possession and have more total shots, but all of their shots are out of target. Will we see Everton pull an upset in this match? but De Bruyne is playing right now, maybe he can change the rhythm and make Manchester City will able to score a goal.

The match is interesting to watch when Manchester City didn't yet score a goal lol.

Man City has been relieved of their burden for a while because the victory over Everton took them to the top. Whether they will stay at the top or not, it depends on Liverpool. In the first half Man City seemed to have difficulty breaking down Everton's defense but after Kevin De Bryune played in the second half their rhythm has improved. Even though they could only create 3 shots on target, but two of those resulted in goals.

Liverpool's current match is quite interesting because the match is going well for Liverpool with a temporary position of 2-1. and it seems that Liverpool is on top again for this week, and Liverpool is not so fierce if there is no M Salah.

I saw De Bruyne was the key to Manchester City's victory, it is certain that he is a very good play maker and has a big influence on every Manchester City victory, 2 goals from Erling Haaland for Manchester City's victory in the match, five perfect matches for Manchester City in five weeks in the English Premier League, maybe Man City will win back the cup in the EPL this season?

Liverpool have just scored their first goal on the 30th minutes of the match against their visitors Burnley. Diogo Jota scored with a beautiful header after a corner kick cross. This is the 99th goal that Jota has scored in English premiership. Liverpool not happy with their last lost against Arsenal last weekend, and they are using that aggressiveness to play their visitors. Liverpool need to win this match and we might see more goals before the end of the first half.

Liverpool 1-0 Burnley.

And now the match is running in the second half, previously in the first half Burnley could equalize through Dara O'shea in the last minute of the first half, and again Diaz added a goal for Liverpool, and now the position is 2-1 temporary victory in the hands of Liverpool, so far in view of the match Liverpool has the potential to win hands down against Burnley.

Liverpool must win tonight's match to stay at the top of the table, because if they lose or draw this match, Manchester City will definitely be able to catch up and lead the English premier league standings this week.

[KTChampions]

Liverpool need this winning inother to remain top on the EPL table, definitely not a struggling moment but streak winning. Jurgen Klopp face Burnley today, Vincent Kompany keeps close range with Jurgen Klopp tactics at Anfield. The second half kickoff and the Reds already leading 2-1 without the proper struggles, awaits for more goals because both teams looking desperate for goals. Why is Liverpool giving Burnley such boosting morale? I never anticipated this game to flowing at this end because Liverpool is an elite team and allowing the Clarets to match the same level of energy with them.

It’s very good that 25 minutes before the end (including stoppage time) Liverpool leads 2-1, but since I made a bet with a handicap of -1, I need at least one more goal   At the moment, bookmakers believe that Liverpool are more likely to win by more than one goal:

4th Goal

Liverpool FC 1.79

None 2.94

Burnley FC 5.10

I hope they are right, but the odds are changing every minute in favor of “no more goals”.

[SOKO-DEKE]

When I saw the odds I was expecting Manchester City game to blow, I'm not surprised the score is only 2-0. People who played over 2.5 goals and more lost their bets. City likes to do that occasionally. They can easily score 3 or more alone but they don't do that. They're idling the game. They turn the ball over as if they are attacking, but in fact they are passing the time and defending very tirelessly.
In the end it was important for them to get 3 points and they did it. Now they are back on top after a long break. I say that because they are level on game numbers, otherwise Liverpool have a chance to go ahead again with one more game.

I was quite surprised by Manchester City's performance, particularly with only scoring two goals, considering their recent excellent form. Given that it was their home match, I anticipated a higher goal count. I reckon some bettors might have opted for riskier bets, like predicting 2.5 goals or more, given the low odds. Honestly, considering Manchester City's dominance on the field, I expected them to score more than just two goals.However, Everton proved to be a formidable opponent by adopting a defensive strategy. Despite Manchester City controlling possession with 70% of the ball, they only managed three shots on goal. Nevertheless, securing three points was the primary objective, so the outcome wasn't all bad.

Seriously this game has in the past always produces goals above 2.5 but this particular game was more of a conservative measure taking by Pep. He has struggled with injury this season, most of which where his key players and currently he is avoiding a high tempo game to help them conserve energy which we all saw how they play in the first half. The other reason could be the next coming game in the champions league against Copenhagen, although they are not much of a threat but you wouldn’t undermine anyone in that competition. It is a great win for Manchester city to go top for probably few hours and also to boost them against their coming match with struggling Chelsea who shared the spoils with them last time they meet.

I hope they are right, but the odds are changing every minute in favor of “no more goals”.

Darwin Nunez just made your ticket, it’s 3-1 already and with the look of things I think that’s how it will win which means your handicap prediction actually works. But seriously this was a tricky bet to me considering that Liverpool have some of their forwards absent and Nunez misfiring but still in the end it pays off that is if they don’t concede any goal right now

Even though they could only create 3 shots on target, but two of those resulted in goals.

The change of scheme midway through the second half in my opinion was a very good move for Manchester City in this match because indeed seeing the difference in attack patterns carried out in the first half and the second half that occurred showed that Manchester City had several options that they could try in a match and Pep was good enough to make some movements in the attack scheme and formation carried out because it seems he already knows very well what Manchester City needs to face a match.

In the second half Pep made some changes with the likes of Kyle Walker, Bernardo Silva and De Bruyne and we know that the quality of their attack was better than in the first half.
The 0-2 result in this match was good enough in my opinion and it was an easy gamble in a match.

In other matches it seems that Klopp is still trying to improvise in their attack line and it is evident that some players continue to change in terms of position because in this match Jota was used as a left wing and of course this is a new thing for him. But the results are also quite satisfying because their trio of strikers Jota, Nunez and Dias managed to score goals and it is likely that the match will end with a score of 3-1 considering the time has entered extra time.

At first, it seems to be obvious that Manchester city will win Everton but on a second thought, some people would suggest that Everton will do everything to escape relagtion. Ofcourse it is possible for Everton but not against Manchester City. Manchester City is too good to lose to Everton, especially as KDB and Erling Haaland will be available.

However, as the first half ended goaless draw. Some people thought Everton could go home with atleast one point. But I knew Everton cannot withstand Manchester City 80th minute to the end pressure. Now it will end as 2:0 in favour of Manchester city.

Before this match started, it was clear that Man City's quality and performance was much better than Everton this season, so it was certain that Man City would win this match. Because this match took place at Man City's home ground, with the presence of Erling Haaland he became more aggressive in trying to get 3 points in the match. Even though many said Everton would do everything, in fact they still lost to Man City and the final score was 2-0.

It cannot be denied that Everton will not be able to withstand the attacks launched by Man City in this match, even though in the first half no goals were scored. However, in the second half it was seen that Everton's defense was continuously under pressure from Man City.

The quality owned by everton was not really different compared to the city in the first half. Im seeing that how city was being so frustrated when it was not able scoring even a single goal in the first half. The come of de bruyne has been helping this club so much. No doubt that if city was always depending on him.

De bruyne has been also assisting haaland with a very accurate assist which has been able to be converted into the goal by haaland. Im seeing that how braanthwhite had been bodied by haaland and he was failling.

Haaland just like a robot when it comes to the 1 on 1 against the defender from its opponent. Haaland was obviously a complete package. He has fast, streghth and shoot. it's very hard to defeat him when it was coming to be one on one.
Everton must be staying at the relegatio zone which is very bad for the club. I was hoping everton to do better than it but the first goal has been destroynig the mentality fro the club. that's what i have seen from the match between everton vs manchester city.

It's quite frustrated as a fan that was betting city to win the game seeing how city was struggling in the first half against it. De bruyne is always making the different for the game of manchester city.

[BigBos]

Manchester City vs Everton started today and the goal difference was 2-0 towards the end of the game. Today's match is at Man City's home ground due to which they were able to attack well and until the last moment they won and succeeded. Erling Haaland came into the team and he managed to score two goals successfully in today's match and thanks to his goal, Manchester City got a great win today. Although they were below the top of the Premier League, today's match saw them move past Arsenal and Liverpool with

Manchester City has proven to Everton that there performance are not good enough to win them, so perhaps it was already expected that this match may likely end this way because Manchester City has been very much on a good form since Kevin de Bruyne returns and also there major target has been to become the first position of the premier League table that's why they are trying all there possible best to prevent any draw or losing and there good performance has been working for them.
 

Actually in this match Everton defended very well, it's just that Everton's defensive style did not last long because in the second half Pep began to make some breakthroughs by looking for alternative players as an option for their attack line, which in fact made Everton even more confused with the wave attacks carried out by Manchester City.

The entry of Kyle walker with speed on the wing in helping attacks and KDB, who we know his ability to make a good midfield flow, made Manchester City's conditions even better in this match and the final score of 0-2 which Haaland scored has proven the difference in quality in this case.
A match that has predicted the results from the start, it's just that in this match I was still quite surprised when Everton could still hold Manchester City in the first half even though indeed from possession and attempted kicks they lost badly because I actually predicted a bigger score in this match.

Manchester City I know are trying to do everything within their strength to reclaim the top spot of the English Premier League table but unfortunately for them, their win in the first game of the weekend in the English Premier League will not be able to keep them at the top of the table longer than they'll want to remain there because Liverpool have just convincingly beaten Burnley to return back to the summit of the league table.
However, Manchester City still have a chance to overtake Liverpool if only they win their outstanding game which I'm very optimistic that they'll win it. The race for who wins the English Premier League title this season keeps getting interesting as the match weeks goes by

Liverpool once again managed to seize the throne from Man City after securing a 3-1 win over Burnley. Playing at home makes Liverpool play with confidence, as a result, they were able to dominate the game. Even if they could take advantage of every good opportunity they have, I think Liverpool could win by more than 3 goals. But no matter how many goals they can score, the victory they get is still very meaningful because it keeps them in the title race path.

Burnley actually also had 2 good chances in the second half, but unfortunately, they didn't have a good finishing touch for that.

we know Guardiola strategy, which always involves new strategies after knowing the opponent's playing style in the second half, so its not surprising that Haaland was able to score 2 scores in the second half, whereas in the first half Haaland was often blocked Everton players as if Haaland had no way out to break through Everton defender.
one more proof that KDB and Haaland are very strong pair of Man City players who cannot be separated these two players can always work together well in every match.

btw, are Liverpool fans ready to accept defeat if Man City takes the title again?
I remember some time ago there were lots of people saying that Liverpool would be the title holders this season but I said that wouldn't happen after Haaland and KDB returned to the field because these two players really were  dangerous threat to other teams.

Liverpool's players have shown excellent dominance at home. However, Liverpool conceded a goal. And the first half ended 1-1. However, the dominance of Liverpool's players was evident throughout the match.

Liverpool are completely attacking in the first half. In the second half, Liverpool's players increased the pace of attack. And just 7 minutes into the second half, Luis Diaz's goal gave the team a 2-1 lead. Nunez's goal in the 79th minute gave Liverpool a 3-1 win. Liverpool had 71% ball possession in this match. Liverpool have once again occupied the top spot of the table by two points ahead of Manchester City.

[nelson4lov]

It's been an interesting weekend so far. Watched the City and Liverpool game but missed out on most of the action of Tottenham's game (no way I would watch Tottenham instead of Liverpool) but I didn't miss that 96th minute winner by Johnson after that excellent assist from Son.

My take on the weekend so far, Man City is interested in repeated what they have done in seasons before this one: slip up early in the season and do a comeback to win the title. This time though, It's a 3-way battle between Liverpool, City and Arsenal.

Won my singles for the day. Forgot to share but tomorrow I won't forget.

How's the weekend going at your end? Anything interesting happened in games I missed?

Manchester City managed to defeat Everton at home with Haaland's goals.City managed to play a dominant game against Everton, but I think City didn't want to push too hard because of the champions league match to be played in the week, otherwise they played with the potential to score more goals against Everton.
Another title contender Liverpool host Burnley at home.Liverpool started the second half fast after a 1-1 draw in the first half against Burnley.Liverpool scored in the second half to go 2-1 up.Liverpool are playing more dominant than their opponents and will most probably win.

The feeling was strong that Everton could not defeat Manchester City they couldn't perform such a mission, and the way I predicted so it happened I even expected more goals from Manchester City, and the surprise was Haaland, single handily scored the two goals, and I was impressed, but if it Haaland then expect anything from him and even couple with the fact that I don't like him but he his good, always have a good time always to score. and the pressure was even much on Everton but it was expected since their squad looks complete then it will be hard to win them. and if it was that period that K. De Bruyne sustained injury then it will be easy. they know Everton is weak against them and that is why they did not even put too much energy into it. because of the other games coming up, they are trying to reduce the energy they put into it. and even Liverpool won their game this shows that is a good sign coming from both teams tonight.

[Jossque]

Liverpool didn't give up after going 2-1 up and increased the pressure. It was a dangerous score for them and they relaxed a bit more after scoring the 3rd goal. In the end, they took 3 points with 3 goals and continued to lead for now.
Totthenham hosted Brighton at home. After conceding a goal at home in the first half, Totthenham did everything to hold on to the game. Totthenham used all their strength to the fullest and managed to win the game after falling behind. The winning goal came in extra time, which was an exciting moment for them. With this win, they moved up to 4th place with a game in hand.

[KA_EF_CI]

Next week's match is quite interesting between Manchester City vs Chelsea, I'm not quite sure that Chelsea will be able to match Manchester City's game because I see that Chelsea is currently quite down this year, and on the contrary, City's performance has increased. It's quite heartbreaking to see Chelsea's current standings. Will Chelsea experience defeat in the future and their standings drop again?

The 0-2 result in this match was good enough in my opinion and it was an easy gamble in a match.

You are right, the attack scheme built by Manchester City in the first half did not match what was expected. They failed to penetrate Everton's defense, which in fact played defensively, and Manchester City didn't even have a single shot on target throughout the first half. Of course there are concerns about bad results or missing the opportunity to get full points, but Pep Guardiola had another option and it really worked.

Pep Guardiola played Kevin De Bruyne, Kyle Walker and Bernardo Silva in the second half. These three experienced players succeeded in making Manchester City's attack scheme more effective and of course really put Everton players under even more pressure. Haaland took advantage of a loose ball in front of the goal and hit it with a lightning kick which became the first goal even though throughout the first half he didn't get enough passes. Before regular time ran out, Haaland doubled the lead again and sealed the win.

Sean Dyche might be one defensive coach but that don't work whenever he is against Manchester City even during them days as a manager for Burnley.
Tough first half already as they locked up these citizens but not for too long. Not that they didn't get to create chances but they struggled to score.
Thanks to Erling Haaland, we'll always know whenever he's around and not Injured. He's not scored more than fifty goals in the Premier League Competition.

Liverpool pressed on to score with double headers. I think they used more of set pieces to score than breaking Burnley United.

[FanEagle]

United will be playing Villa, that will be a tough game. United has been not so great this season so far, and they really need a win, Villa has been unexpectedly good as well and they look like they could keep their position. This is why it's a much more important game for United, hopefully they will get the win they want, it has to be a win for them to keep trying.

There are scenarios where the sixth team still goes to Europe, but it's really not idea for them, they need to do a lot better. This does look like a very unlikely situation for United, not like they can be fourth, but it would make it easier if they win Villa, who is fourth right now. They would at least get a little bit closer there and have a chance.
