Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Lannakosa]

It's very bad for Manchester United the way their current playing situation is showing and it's sad for them to win the match with Fulham. Manchester United are currently in a really poor performance, if they win the match against Fulham they would be able to move up to the fifth position in the points table. By losing matches against normal teams they are losing their points in the points table and it is most unfortunate for them that the team is currently under a lot of pressure. Manchester United performed well for a few days and got up but now the number of defeats is increasing again due to which they are starting to move towards the bottom of the points table. It must improve or Manchester United's situation is likely to worsen this season.

When Manchester United equalized, they decided that they had enough strength and time to bring the match to win, and they had several very good chances to do this, but Fulham held out and even managed to score, Onana could not help, and they conceded in extra time . This is their problem, after several good matches they lose again at Old Traford to not the strongest team. Why was Maguire in the striking position, not one of the strikers? I didn’t like how the attack worked in this match, often after a good cross they simply didn’t move forward.

Onana's behavior of always running away from the goalpost allowed Alex Iwobi to place the ball in the bottom corner, so I will blame Onana a bit for that second goal. It will be hard for Manchester United to catch up with Aston Villa in the Premier League table. Manchester United should concentrate on qualifying for next season's European League because Aston Villa does not want to give up on playing in next season's UEFA Champions League.

I wonder why he often makes mistakes, I don't know why Ten Hag chose him to be in the Man Utd main team, in fact, I like Tom Heaton more than Onana. Fulham was quite lucky in their second goal (Man Utd is still 3 points behind Tottenham and 8 points behind Aston Villa).

Today there is a match that I think is very interesting, the chance of winning is greater - the match between Sheff Utd vs Wolves & the match between West Ham vs Brentford will start soon, for the first match I chose Wolves in my bet, and for the second match, of course, I chose West Ham for my bet.

Manchester United suffered another bad result, Ten Hag efforts to maintain consistency again failed at the hands of Fulham, for the umpteenth time Manchester United was defeated by a mediocre team at Old Trafford. The opportunity to get close to the top four in the standings has failed, and has left Ten Hag under pressure again, easy to get up but also easily broken. Manchester United number of defeats has increased again, Ten Hag deserves to be replaced when the season ends.

Since the start of the match, Fulham continued to press and put up quite good resistance to Manchester United, apart from that, ball control was not too different between the two, this is what made both of them quite good in the first half with the result 0 - 0, then in the second half Secondly, Fulham managed to score their first goal and took the lead in the match through Calvin Bassey's hard kick which broke through Onana's goal, this will of course make Onana's name dragged down as an incompetent goalkeeper, even though Manchester United scored a draw, still at the end of the match, Fullham won this match. with a very narrow score of 1 - 2.

Failure to hunt for 4th place will certainly make Manchester United lose hope even more, but I'm not sure that Ten Hag is fully responsible for this defeat, I think Onana also needs to be replaced next season considering that many of their supporters may also not be happy with him during playing at Manchester United, I think there are still many goalkeepers who are good enough to replace Onana next season. Talking about Ten Hag, I think Manchester United should have a new coach who might be able to make Manchester United even better next season. This defeat will clearly be a nightmare for fans where their favorite team must be defeated by Fullham at Old Trafford.

Yes, That's what we can say, it would be surprising if MU retained Ten Hag for next season... A lot of his ways of handling, viewing people and substitution strategies are wrong. It wouldn't be the first time and previous wins aren't an excuse for this weakness. MU needs comprehensive reform to return to its position. I bet Jim Ratcliffe has made his decision.

No sign for the management to sack him from the club. At least the team was still trusting ten hag to manage the club. I don't even understand what's wanted by the management by keeping a garbage coach like this. Manchester united was able performing better this time but i see no progress being made by manchester united so far.
It's still inconsistent like last season. It's very hard to guess the main points to defend him as a coach. Ten hag has been also very often in making mistake. This is also really disrupting the performance from club like bought non good players from chelsea and intermilan.

This has become the biggest mistake by him. It seems ten hag has no club about how to get a good player to join in the club. There was a lot of debate about whether the club would be sacking him. If i was the owner and i have sacked him and get a good coach to handle the club instead of wasting money to defend the terrible coach like him.

I though we was going to get draw against fulham but a miracle came for fulham through iwobi which has been saving the club to get three points. Manchester united has performing so badly in old trafford which is proving that if MU was not strong enough this time.
I was no really happy with the result but listen i actually think it was the problem on the goal keeper of manchester united. This garbage goal keeper has no good response in blocking the ball.

Watching 90 minutes to see manchester united to lose three points. it's only wasting my time. MU got fucked once again by fulham.

[rendravolt]

Lately, we have increasingly seen Manchester City having difficulty winning and the goals they score are not as many as before. I think there are a few problems that they haven't been able to solve until week 26 and they can almost always score the winning goal in the second half. If we look back briefly they were almost always able to score 1 to 2 goals in the first half and with this advantage everyone who bet on their victory became calmer.

But what we see now is Manchester City who are fighting hard to achieve victory and as the competition becomes fiercer they will have increasingly difficulty in collecting 3 points in each match. I think Pep Guardiola should be able to fix this because his key players have reunited on the field, such as the duo of Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland, but the results are still considered less than optimal and it would be very risky if they were only able to win by a narrow score.

[marii awan]

Chelsea have two wins in their last three official matches. Chelsea last drew with Manchester City in the league and are still having problems in defense. Chelsea are trying to be effective in attack with Sterling, Palmer and Gallagher, but they are becoming more and more a counter-attacking team every week. Liverpool, on the other hand, won comfortably against Luton Town in a match in which they started with a reserve team. Liverpool dominated the game in the second half with almost every player contributing to the score.

I think Liverpool, who are top in all competitions, are one step ahead of their opponents in the tough Chelsea match. However, the high number of injured and missing players may make it difficult for Liverpool in this match. Chelsea only have a cup target this season and they are very focused on that. I think both teams have a chance to score against each other and I'll go for a goal against each other.

Liverpool can beat Chelsea in this match, but I didn't think Chelsea would win; I thought the game would end in a draw rather than a victory for Chelsea. Yes, I know Chelsea has been playing well over the last two matches, but I still don't think Chelsea can win this title; Liverpool's season performance is far superior to Chelsea's. This is the EFL Cup final, so this match will be extremely difficult, and we know Liverpool is a team that always wants to win.

Even though Chelsea will be motivated to win by the title, it will be their performance that will demotivate them. If Chelsea wins this game, I will simply say that they are lucky because we all know how poorly they have performed this season. All of the teams that have struggled and are now performing well are not reliable because they can disappoint anyone at any time. If you don't believe me, just look at Manchester United's performance from yesterday.

Liverpool will beat Chelsea in this final match and Klop will add another trophy to his cabinet Soon. The overall comparison of both teams' performances will give a greater edge to LFC because LFC is very consistence and morale is way higher than Chelsea as LFC also faces injuries but klop managed these things in a very good manner. Let's hope for the best and let REDs become champions of the EFL Carabao Cup again in the previous 3 years also no club has a more profound love affair with the League Cup than Liverpool. They have won the competition nine times, one more than Manchester City, and could make it 10 today against Chelsea at Wembley. GO REDS....YOU WILL NEVER WALK ALONE.

[Weawant]

Wolves have not really been the way they were last season when they were having epic performance a d you can be sure that for almost every game wolves play they are most definitely going to get at least a goal in such a game but then it has turned out that this season they have not really been up with those their epic moves and it's not really been helpful to them because they are now at positions where they shouldn't have been on the table this season if they have had their epic moves.

Today they are playing against Sheffield Utd and so far they have the most of possession and are seemingly dominating the games, Sheffield Utd has not been a very tough team this season so I'm anticipating a win from wolves because I'm recent times wolves has had an average performance a d it's enough to think they will be able to beat Sheffield Utd in today's game. This game is such that even if Sheffield Utd losses this game, or win they will still be in the relegation, it's very unlikely they will be able to get out of relegation this season, they are most likely going to be in the relegation till the end of the season and are most definitely going to be relegated because with wolves they don't stand a chance of getting three points but maybe one is possible but then it will only get them to fifteen points still keeping them in the relegation.

EFL Cup final match Chelsea vs Liverpool

Current standings in Premier League left many points from the top position, seems Chelsea have been over for winning premier league this season and EFL Cup is the realistic trophy for Chelsea.
Few hours later will face Liverpool is the top primer league standings awhile and seems difficult to predict with Chelsea has more motivate for winning the last opportunity with trophy this season and other side Liverpool on the top position won't losses their chance with EFL Cup trophy although its not really excited trophy for top team. If Chelsea is able to win the EFL Cup, this will be the first trophy for Pochettino in the first season, even though in the domestic league it is a little difficult for Chelsea to be in the big four this season.

Who will be the winner of EFL Cup between Chelsea or Liverpool? pick your prediction and which team has strong possibilities for winning EFL Cup.

Arsenal have done it again,flogging Newcastle 4:1 in a game that I thought was going to be very tough.Arsenal dominated the game through out the match,but in the late hours of the match,Joe Willock was able to break the deadlock of not scoring at Emirates stadium for about a decade.The game ended 4:1 in favour of Arsenal,and I believe this one must be a boost of confidence to the Gunners whom suffered defeat in Champions league against FC Porto.The gunners now seat one point behind City and two points behind Liverpool,so the three horse title race is still very active.

Arsenal dominated the game from start to finish, had a plenty of opportunities to score more than four goals, but the Newcastle defense was able to deny several of them. In fact, Arsenal defeated Newcastle like a team that had just been promoted to the Premier League. I didn't think Arsenal would score as many as two goals in that game; I didn't think they would have an easy time beating Newcastle. Newcastle's current performance has shocked me even more because it isn't what they have been doing from the start of the season. Arsenal is playing really well right now, if they continue playing this way, I think they can achieve more this season.

After having a narrow win against Bournemouth, Manchester City take over the second place from Arsenal. This surprised me because I didn't think Manchester City would scored only one goal against a team that is currently in 14th place in the standings.

Arsenal victory and Newcastle defeat will not surprise me because from the start I was very confident and hoped that Arsenal could beat Newcastle, which several times was very inconsistent, making my bets in the past lose several times when every bet on the Newcastle match and one side Arsenal was in the performance very strong because Arteta has again found a strategy to maintain Arsenal consistent performance and we can see that he has now managed to get 6 consecutive wins and always with big score as Arsenal very strong in the Premier League at the moment even though they lost in the Champions League the second leg 1st but that was not the end of Arsenal struggle.
Arsenal are very lucky to get an easier match schedule this time before continuing the 2nd leg match Arsenal will only get easy opponents as they will come against Sheff Utd and also Brenford who both have bad performance in the premier league which gives Arsenal the opportunity to get 6 points from the upcoming 2 matches.

I am also a little surprised that recently Pep Guardiola troops have only been able to win with a small score against any club, whereas yesterday they had weak opponents but were only able to get 1 score, but I wonder if this has become part of Pep Guardiola strategy to maintain the performance of the players players to stay awake for the next match in the Champions League.

Lately, we have increasingly seen Manchester City having difficulty winning and the goals they score are not as many as before.

If we look back briefly they were almost always able to score 1 to 2 goals in the first half and with this advantage everyone who bet on their victory became calmer.

They have problems in this season but if they win many matches, they can become a league champion. They can destroy the league by many minimal won matches and we are witnessing it.

Manchester City have many star players and they can win a match with an excellent show of one of their star players. It makes different than other competitors and it can help them to defend their title in this season.

But what we see now is Manchester City who are fighting hard to achieve victory and as the competition becomes fiercer they will have increasingly difficulty in collecting 3 points in each match. I think Pep Guardiola should be able to fix this because his key players have reunited on the field, such as the duo of Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland, but the results are still considered less than optimal and it would be very risky if they were only able to win by a narrow score.

Kevin and Erling just recovered recently and returned to their squad and play real matches recently. They need more time to warm up and get their best forms and performances. Meanwhile, so far they already had some good contributions for latest won matches of Manchester City.

Pep and Manchester City actually want to get bigger contributions from Kevin and Erling for coming difficult matches in both Premier League and Champions League.

This is going to be the most interesting match in this week. Chelsea's EPL match got postponed caused by this match. Im only waiting for the official line up that will be published soon. Im hoping that chelsea will able to win against liverpool caused by a trophy will mean a lot for the club that is still performing so badly.
No reason for chelsea not to win this trophy caused by liverpool has been winning it many times. Winnng a trophy will also push the performance from chelsea. It will prove that if chelsea was capable enough in winning a trophy. It will be so damn good if chelsea can get its first trophy after todd was acquiring the club from abramovich.
I can define which club that will be winning the game after i will be seeing what line up that is gonna be used by both of clubs. I meant if salah and nunez are the biggest threats for chelsea. Club needs to go all in caused by this will help chelsea to push its reputation among the football fans.
Chelsea's reputation has already destroyed after it was passing last season with horrific performance. Let's see what will be going on in the final of EFL cup.

I will pick which club that will be winning the game after it will able to see the official line up. It's caused by there were some rumros that siad if liverpool will be missing some important players. If that's happening and i will pick chelsea while if liverpool will perform with the full squad and i will pick liverpool.
Totally depends on what line up that is going to be used by both of clubs. this to ensure my prediction to have very high accuracy. This is the key point to determine which club that is going to win the game soon.
I hope salah and nunez will not absence.

Onana's behavior of always running away from the goalpost allowed Alex Iwofe to place the ball in the bottom corner, so I will blame Onana a bit for that second goal. It will be hard for Manchester United to catch up with Aston Villa in the Premier League table. Manchester United should concentrate on qualifying for next season's European League because Aston Villa does not want to give up on playing in next season's UEFA Champions League. 

Onana, or what is his name again? If not, the Manchester United defense has improved Onana would have collected more than two goals yesterday, Alex Iwobi did a lot of pressuring on Manchester United and even scored one goal. onana is not a good keeper at all, and with all the bragging Manchester United has been bragging about changing positions, if they want to continue using that goalkeeper, then they are not ready to go far, and even Aston Villa are not a serious club, they once maintained an unbeaten record in their home, and now they are nothing to write home about. The beginning does not matter, but the end does.

There's no formidable ground for Manchester United other than Old Trafford. Erik Ten Hag should be sack or give more time? He's not the problem of the club but the main problem comes from the players. They don't enchanced their capability on the pitch but becomes serious when they're losing the game, that's how Manchester United operates. Don't blame Manchester United goalkeeper, André Onana for the two goals conceded against Fulham at Old Trafford. Rather we should channel our blames to the Red Devils poor defendlines, they become very vulnerable against competitive average team.

sacking Erik Ten Hag is not the solution to Manchester United's performance they are even better than Chelsea, and even the players need to be purged. I always have problems with Manchester United's goalkeeper they lack the strategy to even finish. I see the way Fulham was creating opportunities for themselves if not for the fact that they were some safes, it would not have been two goals, I was uplifted by the performance of Fulham. If Onana does not partake in the blame, then who do you expect to take the blame? The guy is always fucking up.

Aston Villa hosted Nottingham Forest at home.Aston Villa went 3-0 up against Nottingham forest in the 39th minute and we can say that Aston Villa managed to break the match here in a way.Aston villa broke the resistance of their opponent and although Aston villa took the lead, their opponent did not give up the game and brought the situation to 3-2 at the beginning of the second half.The match started to heat up more and with Bailey's goal in the 61st minute, they won 4-2 at home. With Bailey's goal in the 61st minute, Aston Villa will not want to fall further behind their rivals in the championship race because the points difference with the leader liverpool is 8, a difference that can be closed at any time. Although there are 13 weeks left to the end of the league, it must be said that we are entering the most critical weeks.

Yes, when it comes to winning the Premier League, it feels impossible for Chelsea this season, and tonight facing Liverpool in the EFL Cup is the last chance to lift the trophy this season, but what Chelsea is facing is Liverpool, the top of the standings. Premier League standings. Liverpool is in its best performance. so it will be very difficult for Chelsea to win the EFL Cup Final,
Even though it looks difficult, when the team has appeared in the final there will definitely be more motivation to win the title, even though everyone knows that the EFL championship is not the main championship for EFL teams, but tonight if Chelsea wins and beats Liverpool. That could be proof for Mauricio Pochettino that he still deserves to remain Chelsea coach

According to my predictions, I am very confident that MU will win because there are still Rashford and Bruno Fernandes who will be the mainstays for scoring in today's match and according to the recent performances of these two clubs, Manchester United is much better at getting consistent wins while Fulham still looks very bad.
Erik Ten Hag will not waste this opportunity because Fulham is a weak club at the moment so they have to try to bring Manchester United to get 3 winning points to give a record of 5 consecutive wins as you said.

Rashford is Pinocchio At some point it seemed that he was promising, but after he signed a contract with a serious salary increase, there was simply nothing left of him. He can't beat a defender. When there is a defender in front of him, he simply runs forward and bumps into him.
Fulham won and I don’t see anything unusual in this, rather what was unusual was that United had successful games before, but now it’s just a return to the average.
What made me laugh was that TH released Anthony onto the field, whom he had kept in reserve the entire game, a minute before the end of the game (in the 9th added minute). What did he expect?

I knew Newcastle United was an easy match for Arsenal to win because Newcastle United have been struggling recently to win their matches in the Premier League. With this 4-1 against Newcastle United, the point difference between Liverpool, Manchester City, and Arsenal remains the same, and the Premier League title race is still open for Manchester City or Arsenal to win if Liverpool fails to win it.

In my opinion, the heavy defeat that Newcastle experienced when facing Arsenal last night was a very natural thing, because Arsenal's performance was very good and still consistent in their matches. When compared to Newcastle's current condition, they are at their worst point this season and their game looks very inconsistent and it is very difficult to provide resistance against Arsenal. Plus, Arsenal is playing at home, this of course makes Arsenal's game more aggressive to continue attacking to win this match. The conditions in the Premier League this season are very tight so Liverpool, Man City, Arsenal must really maintain their performance and always play consistently in every match in order to win the next match.

Arsenal is on fire now five consecutive wins before Newcastle game really shows an incredible hunger and taste for success and I wasn't surprise when they thrashed Newcastle 4-1 making it 6 straight wins with 25 goals scored and conceded just 3 goals they lost a game so far in 2024 against Porto in UCL match, there is great desire by their players to win a trophy this season, meanwhile team is now third with just two ponies behind Liverpool and one point behind Man City with 12 matches, I think this would be one of the toughest contest for EPL trophy among the 3 clubs that means every remaining matches count now it's going be a must win match to  remain as a title contender.

Arsenal is in amazing form in the Premier League right now, and that is one of the reasons I said if Arsenal entered the top of the Premier League table, they would end up winning the Premier League trophy this season. This is one of the best Premier League title races in a long time because three clubs are actively involved.

[snipie]

Fulham won and I don’t see anything unusual in this, rather what was unusual was that United had successful games before, but now it’s just a return to the average.

Manchester United were doing somehow fine until yesterday. Of course seeing them lose a game became an ordinary thing but what's more funny is to see Harry Maguire scoring the only goal of Manchester United

What made me laugh was that TH released Anthony onto the field, whom he had kept in reserve the entire game, a minute before the end of the game (in the 9th added minute). What did he expect?  

To piss the player and blow the minds of every United fan
Newcastle defeat made them away from any European competition spot and they risk to not play on any of them next season.

[Jossque]

Crystal Palace managed to defeat their relegation rivals Burnley 3-0 at home and got 3 points.Burnley didn't even have a shot on target during the match.I don't think they will be able to win any more games in the coming weeks and they will probably be relegated to the lower league along with Sheffield United.
Everton, on the other hand, managed to get a draw away from Brighton.Everton, who played badly compared to their opponent, at least got a draw here, which is promising for them.They are in the relegation pot and they need to find themselves a winning streak as soon as possible, otherwise it seems likely that they will also be relegated.If they had not conceded a goal in the last minute, maybe they could have left with 3 points, but this should be a start for them.

If Chelsea is able to win the EFL Cup, this will be the first trophy for Pochettino in the first season, even though in the domestic league it is a little difficult for Chelsea to be in the big four this season.

Who will be the winner of EFL Cup between Chelsea or Liverpool? pick your prediction and which team has strong possibilities for winning EFL Cup.

I predict Liverpool will emerge victorious at Wembley, even though currently Jurgen Klopp cannot field his best squad due to injury. Liverpool consistency in the Premier League indicates that they are tough enough to face any challenges, betting on Liverpool victory will be safer without much consideration. Apart from that, Chelsea have made mistakes too often this season, the ups and downs in performance experienced by Pochettino squad make me hesitate to place them as candidates to win the trophy. Even though they often play well when they meet other big teams, the fact is that Liverpool this season has managed to beat them.

As the match progresses, I predict the match will be intense and open, both of them will appear aggressive. Considering the ambitions of both teams to win their first trophy and farewell trophy, the atmosphere of the match will definitely be full of pressure. However, unfortunately this final was less than optimal because several key players in both teams had to be absent due to injury, the score was 2-1 for Liverpool victory.

[Chilwell]

Chelsea v Liverpool

Chelsea XI: Petrovic, Gusto, Disasi, Colwill, Chilwell, Caicedo, Enzo, Gallagher, Palmer, Jackson, Sterling.

Liverpool XI: Kelleher, Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson, Mac Allister, Endo, Gravenberch, Elliott, Gakpo, Diaz.

Liverpool are ready for this match without Mo Salah, Dominik Szoboszlai and Darwin Nunez and I know Chelsea are not Luton Town that maintain winning throughout the first half of the game without this guys, even though they later won that was Premier league and now it's final against Chelsea, Liverpool shouldn't capitalised on their last meeting with Chelsea that they won 4-1, I know Mo Salah was absent. I expect seriousness with the both clubs because this match really mean a lot for this teams especially the coaches.
