Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Bobrox]

Since 2024, Manchester United has continued to show quite good performance in all competitions with 5 wins of 6 matches in all competitions, the victory over Aston Villa made Manchester United had won three consecutives premier league matches after defeating Wolves and West Ham United before. Another three points achievement make Manchester United near close with top fourth standings and current position, United get remaining 5 points from Aston Villa and get difference 6 points from Tottenham Hotspur are settle 4th position.

Upcoming two matches later seems easily for Manchester United secure three points against Luton Town and Fulham before facing with Manchester derby against Manchester City. Keep improving performance match by match if Manchester United want to get Champion League spot standings next season.

Now it is known that Manchester United can win against Aston Villa and it is a fact that Manchester United was living up to expectations. They had a lot of chances, created a lot of attacks with a decent level of creativity and I have to say that it was one of the better games they played this season. Both teams are struggling in delivering consistent results, but this was a solid performance and although Aston Villa was pushing towards the end of the game, Manchester United had a response for them.

Overall it is true that Manchester United played well especially since they are playing away and this is their 3rd win in a row, I see Manchester United playing more consistently lately with more positive results. is Ten Hag under pressure to bring Manchester United to finish in the top 5? we know Manchester United still has a chance to do it and they have already started it.

I do like the current formation of manchester united. It was able performing even more stable compared to the previous games. Manchester united seems being quite balanced in attacking line compared to the defensive line. Ten hag has been successfully helping the club to play even better than before.
I thought that villa would be winning the game surprisingly manchester united was able showing better quality compared to the previous games. Im thinking that if the chance for united to get into the europa league is very big right now.
Manchester united potentially to go up again soon. This is also making the situation even better compared to the previous season. Glad to see there was at least some improvements on manchester united. The club is starting to perform better.
Having some important players back again is also helping the club so much to secure three points consistentl.

Yes, Manchester United has started to show improvement since the beginning of this year, they are starting to recovered from their downturn at the end of 2023. Now Manchester United has started to show its best performances to be able to continue to move into the Champions League zone next season. A difference of 5 to 6 points is not too big for Manchester United continue to gain points in the next matches, and if Tottenham or Aston Villa lose points then Manchester United can take over their ranking either in 4th or 5th place, but I hope Manchester United can end up in the Champions League zone.

The two match that Manchester United will play are not that tough because Manchester United is playing against a weak club Luton and against a club in the middle of the table, Fulham, so Manchester United must win to continues to close the distance to 5th place, before facing Manchester City, don't let Manchester United lose points so that their performance before meeting the defending champions will determine the mentality of the current Manchester United players.

[Hirose UK]

Since scoring, United has been poor in ball possession. No midfield, The space in the midfield is crazy, it’s so open. Aston Villa is dominating everywhere...
United leading, but Aston Villa dominating and it's threatening. Rasmus Hojlund is superb! Five games and Five goals.
Please focus United. Don't be complacent. Let's win this game

Currently, all the teams in the Premier League are not satisfied if there are still several important matches that they have to win, especially if the conditions are like Manchester United who clearly still have to fight to win every match in order to get a better position. Because currently Manchester United are no longer too far from the top four, although they still need time to get there because previously they had fallen behind when they were unable to win several important matches this season.

Premier League this season is different from last season because this season is much more interesting and the competition is also fiercer, this provides more competitive competition because there is possibility that other team can win the title.
Premier League has become one of the most popular leagues with the presence of various great players and having more strong team, making team that used to be big team like Manchester United experience several setbacks and difficulties in improving their position.
Manchester United will experience some serious pressure from every other team that will compete with each other to improve their position in the standings, maybe this season they will have difficulty.
Difference in points is so far that the possibility of Manchester United becoming one of the top team seems very unlikely to happen and if it could, it would probably only be in the top 4 or 5, but as I said, it is difficult to achieve this, catching up is not easy.

[Sakanwa]

Arsenal's performance against WestHam yesterday was one of their best this season,they have broken the hoodoo that normally make them lose to WestHam and the margin they used in breaking it was so much big.6:0 is one they won't forget soon.It is true that Arsenal are back to their best,and this momentum is going to Increase more higher as they flogged the league leaders last week,they've shown that by winning WestHam again yesterday.
All they are waiting for now is the slightest mistake from City and Liverpool to take their position and top the table.

It look like Manchester united manager has gotten it right in this 2024, because the way his strikers is more active these days in some matches they have played, made many people to seen positive changes in Manchester united. Manchester united surprised many people in this match, because some people used the position in the premier league table to predict the winner and they predicted for the favour of Aston villa based on they are ahead of Manchester united ,but the match turned to the favour of Manchester united to defeated Aston villa 1-2. I don't think, Manchester united will escape in that match because Manchester city will not allow Manchester united to breath well than to use all their strategies to ensure they achieve goals to defeat Manchester united to remain on top.

I didn't expected Man Utd to winnings when they visite Aston Villa because Man Utd performances was still quite doubtful, in fact I thought Man Utd would only be able to achieved a draw but in reality Man Utd was able to appear surprising in this match and be a positive results in the future and in the next match against Luton Town should be a fairly easy match because in term of strengths, Aston Villa is bigger. But sometime Man Utd strength is still doubtfull and they have not appeared completely consistent, but I hoped Man Utd is able to win it so they can gets closer to the UCL zone.

Slowly but surely Erik ten Hag's tactics are starting to make Manchester United's performance better than before. Erik Ten Hag has found his best starting XI, hopefully in the future it will also produce positive results like this. Scott Mictominay always breaks Man United's deadlock at the end of the match and also locks in victory, and makes him a Super sub because he always provides surprises.

Overall players like Onana, Hojlund, Maguire, Dalot, Mctominay in that match were really powerful, they just need to fix the part where Garnacho and Rashford were still playing selfishly.

That way I am sure that this season Man United will definitely enter the UCL zone, Man United's next step is to get rid of all the dead players, recruit the right players and make a good contribution to Man United. Don't buy expensive players but buy players who are hungry for trophies.

How you can say Manchester United's performance was doubtful? they haven't lose in the last five matches, actually Aston Villa's performance was doubtful because they can lose against Chelsea and Newcastle when both of this clubs aren't in good perform.

But this match, Aston Villa gives a lot pressure to Manchester United, they shots 23 times, surprisingly Onana is really good in this match. Although Hojlund and McTominay are the goal scorers, but Onana is the reason why Manchester United won.

I also have confidence that MU can get another chance in the champions league next season and I admit that Erik Ten Hag is improving his performance slowly but unfortunately this is not what we all expected but a strong performance in the champions league.
I will never be surprised if one day MU can surprisingly reach the top 3 positions in the points table because I don't doubt Erik Ten Hag already knows how to get the best position but the problem not only about position in the premier league but also other competitions such as the Premier League a champion that must be achieved by appearing more consistently.
Erik Ten Hag still has the ability to take MU to safety but has no way to survive in champions league.

I agrees with you that MU actually doesn't need expensive players but needs players who really have good talent and replace players in several lines like the players you said who already look good and this time Erik Ten Hag job to know several players who need to be replaced so that better prepared to face next season Champions League matches.

2024 seems to be a turning point for Manchester United to continue to develop, we can see the results of their matches from January to February which are quite encouraging. A series of consecutive wins has made the Red Devils start to look back at the top zone and it is possible that if their performance continues to improve then their opportunity to enter the UCL zone is very wide open. Erik Ten Hag seems to have found the right strategy for United, Hojlund is really on fire at the moment and what's more, Mc Tominay is always a super sub, it's just that the defense line and wing movements must always be improved to maintain stability.

[naira]

I do like the current formation of manchester united. It was able performing even more stable compared to the previous games. Manchester united seems being quite balanced in attacking line compared to the defensive line. Ten hag has been successfully helping the club to play even better than before.
I thought that villa would be winning the game surprisingly manchester united was able showing better quality compared to the previous games. Im thinking that if the chance for united to get into the europa league is very big right now.
Manchester united potentially to go up again soon. This is also making the situation even better compared to the previous season. Glad to see there was at least some improvements on manchester united. The club is starting to perform better.
Having some important players back again is also helping the club so much to secure three points consistentl.

It's time for Manchester United to chase the top 4 by taking advantage of the situation where Tottenham and Aston Villa are currently in a bit of a slump. but of course it's not easy because both Manchester United, Tottenham and Aston Villa have now played 24 matches. So we need to see another decline. This month Manchester United will face Luton Town and Fulham, hopefully they can still make good use of it. As long as Garnacho and Hojlund are on fire, maybe that  can be achieved. Btw, what about Rashford performance which in several matches is not outstanding at all  and it is evident that the increase in performance is on Hojlund side.

All they are waiting for now is the slightest mistake from City and Liverpool to take their position and top the table.

Since winning against Liverpool last week Arsenal have become more confident now, Arteta seems to have revived the enthusiasm of his team to play better and optimally, no one thought that West Ham's defense line was that easy to break down, Arsenal was able to take advantage of this weak situation to scored more goals, the victory brought the full three points for Arsenal, the competition at the top of the standings is very tight now so Arsenal must work even harder to maintain their consistency.

Learning from last season where they played inconsistently at the end of the season which resulted in Manchester City taking the top of the standings easily, I think Arsenal for now is just waiting for the mistakes made by Liverpool and Manchester City, because Arsenal's point difference is very small, around 2 points with Liverpool. so they will fight for the top of the standings and win the title this season, but Arsenal shouldn't be happy yet, they still have several matches to go through and it won't be that easy to maintain consistency until the end of the season.

Well this is quite reasonable because with the current conditions, the chance of a draw is the biggest possibility in this match but on the other hand, the possibility of winning a narrow victory for one of the clubs is also a necessity in this case.

Manchester United's condition is in a good situation where the previous 2 wins have become very good capital for them but for Aston Villa, which is in an uncertain situation, making Aston Villa a little hassle actually in today's match.
Although on several occasions showing Aston Villa a little better in terms of attack in today's match but still for the final result, Manchester United's narrow victory succeeded in making them secure 3 points.

Hojlund scored another goal and slowly it seems he knows what he has to do at Manchester United at the moment while McTominay is always a club savior in crucial minutes. 

[QueenVera]

When I look at the team's positions in the table and I see Aston Villa position and Manchester United's position:


makes me wonder what the hell happened to Aston Villa, until a few weeks ago they were a team that was well placed in the table, they managed to stay in the best places, they beat strong teams, I even thought that Aston Villa would be able to finish in a good position in the table, but looking today at Aston Villa's performance and looking at the performance of teams like Manchester United, I see that Aston Villa will finish in a terrible position, it won't take many rounds for Manchester United to catch up and surpass Aston Villa in the table.

West Ham 0 - 6  Arsenal

honestly, it didn't even seem like the West Ham players had the desire, motivation and strength to play, the impression I got from that game was that it seemed like the West Ham players didn't have any desire to play, especially the defensive players and the goalkeeper, The goals Arsenal scored seemed like goals that West Ham's goal didn't have a goalkeeper for. I know that Arsenal is a great team, and a strong team and a candidate for the title, but in this game the blame for the many goals is undoubtedly on the shoulders of West Ham players, but of course the Arsenal players are to be congratulated for having achieved They score a lot of goals, with this victory Arsenal are closer to Liverpool, but if Arsenal really want to win the title then they must win all the games ahead and they must beat Manchester City when they play against Manchester City on the 31st of next month

I'm really suprised by Aston Villa's performance lately, I expect them to do better in this 2nd segment of the tournament but no they're not even impressive anymore,1st they got thrashed by Chelsea then Manchester United who knows if they'll still have another defeat again in their next fixture. If they continue losing points they'll miss out in the top 4 and maybe end up playing Conference League, not even the Europa. Well the only excuse they could give for their poor performance lately is the injury sustained by most of their 1st team players.

 As for West Ham, I expected a defeat against Arsenal but the 6-0 is so embarrassing cause they played like they were not training or even without a coach, their manager would be so disappointed at himself and the boys for allowing such a heavy defeat this season from a big team and I'm pretty sure it would take a while before most of their fans would recover from watching their team embarrassed them on the pitch.

[Strongkored]

The defeat against Nottingham Forest was Manchester United's last defeat because after that they managed to win in all competitions and that was quite impressive because previously they always appeared to be a team that was far from consistent but now there are good things starting to appear, such as Rasmus Højlund who consistently always scores goals in the five Manchester United matches.
Before facing Manchester City in the English Premier League match, they will face Luton and Fulham, and on paper they should be able to handle both teams well, even though Luton appeared surprising by beating Brighton with a big score and holding Tottenham to a draw, but that doesn't reduce Luton's success still one of the weak teams this season.

Chelsea will face Crystal Palace, and this is still a match where the away team is the favorite, if we look at H2H the last time Chelsea lost to Crystal Palace was in 2017 and after that Chelsea managed to beat this opponent so it is very possible that Chelsea will maintain this record unless they get strong resistance as Wolves displayed when they beat Chelsea with a landslide score.

[Polkeins]

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.

1:1 in the end of the first half.
To be honest I didn't think that Burnley would score, because after the 20th minute Liverpool completely dominated the field, but in the last minute Burnley managed to get back. Still Liverpool lack Salah and it is obvious that there is no one to score decisive goals, because if Liverpool scored at the end of the first half and everything would be solved for Burnley, and now having got a goal before the break Liverpool have to start everything again, and Burnley on the contrary believed in themselves and now ready to impose the struggle to Liverpool in the second half, although I think that to win even such a match Liverpool should still.

A second consecutive defeat or even a draw with Burnley will distance Liverpool from the championship in the EPL.

A classic header from O'Shea on the last minute of the first half leveled up the goal that Jota scored. I was thinking that Liverpool will end the first taking the lead but it was quite unfortunate for them, as the match is is still in favor of none of the two clubs.

Liverpool needs to improve their performance in the first half, and take proper advantage of their chances to find the back of the net, because they lost some good opportunities in the first half that was supposed to be converted to a goal. Burnley will be motivated by their equalizer goal, and they will want to see if they can win or draw the match. This is a big challenge for Liverpool who needs to maintain their first position on the league.

Still, Liverpool could handle the pressure and Diaz and Nunez were able to score such important goals for Liverpool in the second half and they won 3-1 and remained in first place in the championship. Liverpool are still 2 points ahead of Manchester City, but Manchester City have one game less and if they win it, they will overtake Liverpool. Guardiola knows how to pick up the pace in the second part of the championship and Liverpool and Arsenal need to give 100% to fight for victory in the EPL.

All they are waiting for now is the slightest mistake from City and Liverpool to take their position and top the table.

Arsenal performance indeed very outstanding because they can able to overcomes West Ham with big scores and actually West Ham is not weak opponent for Arsenal because before this match West Ham has successfully to beat Arsenal twice at Premier League and Carabao Cup this season so i thought Arsenal will gets in trouble in this match but surprisingly Arsenal can win with easily from West Ham besides that 6-0 is Arsenal's biggest score in a single match in Premier League but for West Ham i think David Moyes should be evaluated this result because recently West Ham has poor results and conceded 9 goals in the last 2 matches in Premier league has showing there is something wrong with West Ham defensive lines

Two winning streak from strong teams Liverpool and West Ham has been showing Arsenal in the good shape and gradually they can able to joining again with Liverpool and Manchester City for race title and before against FC Porto for round of 16 of champion league this weekend Arsenal will fight for away match at Burnley home ground so if Arsenal can performing just like when they beat West Ham then it could be easy match for Arsenal and not impossible Arsenal will be able to overcomes Burnley with huge scores again

[Agbamoni]

MU managed to win the match against hosts Aston Villa through a winning goal scored by Mc. Tominay in the 86th minute. I think MU will only end in a draw. An expensive win for MU, because with this result MU can reduce the points gap with Aston Villa. The next match, MU will meet Luton Town, it should be an easy opponent for MU.

To be honest, I don't know if Manchester United will be able to win against Aston Villa and this is quite surprising to many people. Red Devils fans are very happy with the performance of their favorite team and this could be the start of the revival they have been waiting for for a long time. Luton shouldn't make it difficult for Manchester United because they managed to prove their victory by beating Aston Villa.

Now it is known that Manchester United can win against Aston Villa and it is a fact that Manchester United was living up to expectations. They had a lot of chances, created a lot of attacks with a decent level of creativity and I have to say that it was one of the better games they played this season. Both teams are struggling in delivering consistent results, but this was a solid performance and although Aston Villa was pushing towards the end of the game, Manchester United had a response for them.

I didn't expected Man Utd to winnings when they visite Aston Villa because Man Utd performances was still quite doubtful, in fact I thought Man Utd would only be able to achieved a draw but in reality Man Utd was able to appear surprising in this match and be a positive results in the future and in the next match against Luton Town should be a fairly easy match because in term of strengths, Aston Villa is bigger. But sometime Man Utd strength is still doubtfull and they have not appeared completely consistent, but I hoped Man Utd is able to win it so they can gets closer to the UCL zone.

You should be expecting it from now on. Perhaps you have refused to understand that Mactomminay is Manchester United super sub. He always comes in during the second half and score a beautiful equalizing or winning goal, truly a lot of players in Manchester United has really worked on their performance apart from Rashford. Rashford is still lacking behind i don't see him play very well to put a pressure in their opponent's half. However, Manchester United winning at Vikka park yesterday was well deserving. From the start of the game i knew they were going to come out victoriously.

Last week EPL games where one of the best i have watched so far. All the big teams actually won their match and if you had placed a good bet on them to win. You would have won a satisfactory amount. Weeks like this rarely comes.

[Velvet78]

I wasn't expecting Manchester United to be victorious against Aston Villa this time. But they didn't even need a comeback again despite playing away. Hojlund is still on fire.  

But the most attracting game was West Ham - Arsenal of course.    West Ham must have played their worst game of the season. I was expecting a win for Arsenal like most people but this was a way extra win by 6-0. They really looked like they saved their energy for this game. Now they have the same points with Manchester City however one shouldn't forget Manchester City still have a missing game to play. But at least Arsenal have started to improve their form these days.

[Swordsoffreedom]

I didn't expected Man Utd to winnings when they visite Aston Villa because Man Utd performances was still quite doubtful, in fact I thought Man Utd would only be able to achieved a draw but in reality Man Utd was able to appear surprising in this match and be a positive results in the future and in the next match against Luton Town should be a fairly easy match because in term of strengths, Aston Villa is bigger. But sometime Man Utd strength is still doubtfull and they have not appeared completely consistent, but I hoped Man Utd is able to win it so they can gets closer to the UCL zone.

How you can say Manchester United's performance was doubtful? they haven't lose in the last five matches, actually Aston Villa's performance was doubtful because they can lose against Chelsea and Newcastle when both of this clubs aren't in good perform.

But this match, Aston Villa gives a lot pressure to Manchester United, they shots 23 times, surprisingly Onana is really good in this match. Although Hojlund and McTominay are the goal scorers, but Onana is the reason why Manchester United won.

I would say that Manchester United  team was lucky to secure 3 points in  this match. Because overall gameplay of Aston Villa players was better than Manchester United players in this match. And I thought the match might be a draw.

Hojlund's goal gave Manchester United  the lead in the first half. But  Villa managed to  equalize at the start of the second half. Aston Villa's players attacked a lot. Manchester United, on the other hand, were somewhat tactical in  this match. They  first tried to keep their defense strong. McTominay's goal in the 86th minute gave United a 2-1 lead.
