Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Franctoshi]

This could perhaps be used as a reason and motivation for the Manchester United team in the FA Cup because it is true as you said that only the FA Cup is possible for Manchester United to win this season.
If you look at the strength of the Nottingham Forest team, it is not that strong and it should not be difficult for Manchester United to win this match.

I doubt if Manchester United will be able to lift the FA Cup this season, I count them out, looking at other teams that are in the competition Liverpool, Manchester city, and Chelsea and the rest of other teams that are way better in performance this season than the United team, likely for them they may end up being able to reach the semi-final stage of the competition.

Yes, at the Manchester City match
against Luton Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland seemed to have a good understanding and connection on the pitch and they brought a special connection that worked well together.
Erling Haaland scored five goals in the 3rd, 18th, 40th, 55th and 58th minutes, one goal, and this was the first time in Malakukam in the EPL and one goal was contributed by Mateo Kovacic in the 72nd minute. And this cool result means that defending FA Cup champions Manchester City have successfully advanced to the quarter-finals, and the opportunity to defend their title is wide open.

To be honest, I was surprised when I saw that Haaland and De Bruyne were in the starting lineup for this match, there were thoughts that Guardiola would give the leaders a little rest for the cup match. The interaction between Haaland and De Bruyne was very impressive, KDB made an assists, and Haaland scores first 4 goals , it was cool. And of course it is worth noting the form in which Haaland is, 5 goals in one match is very impressive. It’s clear that Luton is not a team with the best defense, but someone recently complained that City haven’t scored enough in recent matches, is 6 goals per match enough? 

Luton played aggressively, which allowed Man City to score 6 goals. Haaland's performance was outstanding in this game! Both Haaland and De Bruyne showed their top form. It's great to see them performing so well at this crucial point in the season. No complaints here. This performance couldn't have come at a better time, especially before the Derby match. Man City will surely take this as a confidence boost for their upcoming Derby game on Sunday.

For sure I don't think Manchester United have a chance to win the FA cup. The way things are going they are likely to end the season without any trophy. They don't have what it takes to win a trophy this season. Manchester City are gearing up to repeat their last season feat by winning the tribble and Liverpool and on course to win the quadruple. These teams are more hungry for success compared to Manchester United who are yet to identify there pattern of play.

[Toro iskandar]

Manchester City will of course be very favourites, in terms of strength they are stronger than Manchester United this season and Manchester City will also be playing at home. Of course they have much greater motivation to win the match, especially now that Manchester City is competing for the title. PL so indeed Manchester City cannot lose 3 points in every match.

But what you have to remember, this is a Manchester derby match which has quite high tension, so I don't think that this match will be easy for Manchester City and the percentage of surprises will also be quite large because of the high tension of the match.
This is a match full of prestige for both teams, thus I think the match will be quite fierce and no goal is too much for a team

Of course, in terms of appearance, Manchester City is superior to Manchester United in the Premier League this season, especially since Manchester City is currently in the runner-up position and it is clear that the Manchester City squad is better than Manchester United.
Manchester United seems to be not performing well this season with its position in 6th place in the points standings, still far behind Manchester City, between 59 points and 44 points.
And later in the 27th match between Manchester City and Manchester United they will meet again and this match will certainly be an exciting moment to watch.
Yes, by playing at home, I think Manchester City will appear very dominating in this match because their players will definitely be able to adapt to the field conditions as they all know.

Yes, by fighting for the title in the EPL of course Manchester City will play even harder because their opponents will be very tough like Liverpool and Arsenal, these two clubs are very strong teams to date.
With Pep Guardiola's guidance, of course Manchester City is now stronger with a narrow win over Bournemouth on Saturday night, this is very convincing and adds even more pressure to the Liverpool squad.
And coach Pep Guardiola ensures that his team will appear stronger in the future and puts a lot of pressure on Liverpool so they can add more points and shift Liverpool's position at the top of the standings.
Meanwhile, the difference in points between Manchester City and Liverpool is only 1 point and if Liverpool cannot add any more points in the next match, then they must be ready to accept and become runners up.
The competition is getting hotter and fiercer towards the top of becoming champion.

There are many candidates in the FA cup. Im doubting MU can win this title. It was always facing the bad result when mu got liverpool as its opponent. United will have city as its next opponent and i expect that there will be something to happen soon. It's a non sense to favor MU to be a winner this season.
City and newcastle have won the previous games against mediocre club. Haaland itself created 5 goals alone against luton. How can manchester united beat this monster? Statistically, manchester city is far above any clubs in the FA club now. I would rather than pick city over MU to be a winner.

We still have chelsea, liverpool and brighton that will be winning against their opponents. Considering so many strong clubs were able beating their opponents made me believe that if MU has a very hard way to get FA cup this season.

MU is gonna face notthm forest which will not be a difficult opponent for manchester united. The main problem since nottingham may be playing use the defensive strategy and it will make MU struggle to beat it.
Im trying to trust this club but the defensive line and goal keeper have made me lost my trust to believe in united.

There are still many monsters competing with MU in FA cup. The chance is pretty small to win FA cup this time.

[Velvet78]

I have hopes for Man United in this match and I think the match will end in favor of the visitors. Even though they experienced instability and in the Premier League, Nottingham Forest managed to beat Man United, this does not mean that in the FA competition they will allow them to lose again. Only this championship has a chance for Man United and I am sure Erik Ten Hak will try everything to get victory. The previous defeat when playing at Old Trafford was very surprising because Man Unied was in a positive trend.

Nottingham Forest is also not very consistent and even though the match will take place at their home ground the chances are still the same. If Man United does not try to chase champions in this competition, then this season Man United could lose all the opportunities that exist because chasing other competitions will no longer be possible for Man United.

If you have noticed Manchester United's odds for the win are increasing in time. It has reached 2.30 now. This must be because of having so many missing players before this game. There are even two more questionable players such as Bruno Fernandes and Varane. There is a long list of injuries at Manchester United side right now which is a really big problem.  

Nottingham beat Manchester United by 2-1 home before and this game is also going to be played there. There were players like Fernandes, Wan-Bissaka and Varane playing back then who are likely to be out of the squad today. I won't place any bet on the Red Devils to win today as a result. It is likely to be very tough for them.

FA Cup become the only one opportunity left for Manchester United winning the trophy after gap many points in Premier League and I don't sure Erik ten Hag have enough compete to make miracle for domestic league winner. In Fa Cup 5th round, Manchester United has away match for facing Nottingham Forest, Erik ten Hag have to forget last match losses against Fulham and keep trying to win the left opportunity for getting trophy in this season.
Nottingham Forest performance still not consistent yet after losing last match in Premier League against Aston Villa and other side their position standings in domestic league left fewest points with relegation zone and likely FA Cup match against Manchester United will use their second players composition.

I would say Nottingham Forest are not a strong team. It is a relatively weak  opponent. Nottingham Forest's position in the Premier League points table is 17th. The team is very close to the relegation zone. So it can be said that Nottingham Forest is far behind Manchester United.

Nottingham Forest's performance against  Bristol City in the previous FA Cup  match was not good either. They were very lucky to qualify  for the fifth round. Nottingham Forest drew both matches against Bristol.

However, while Nottingham Forest's players have failed to play consistently  well, the team has occasionally  produced excellent performances. A few  days ago we saw Nottingham Forest win 2-0 against West Ham. Moreover, Nottingham won 2-1 in the previous match against Manchester United. So if Manchester United wants to win, they must perform very carefully.

This is a match full of prestige for both teams, thus I think the match will be quite fierce and no goal is too much for a team

I think in this derby match we probably all know that the strength capacity of both Manchester City seems to be superior, therefore Manchester City will win this match in the race for the EPL title this season, if they experience a defeat or a draw it will definitely be detrimental to them. , previously Manchester City was held to a draw by Chelsea and I think against Manchester United, City will not get the same result, Manchester City should be able to get the full three points from this match.

Even though it is possible that both clubs will play with high tension, it seems like Manchester City knows how to overcome Manchester United and win this match, at least a narrow win is more than enough for Manchester City to get the full three points because it is very important in maintaining the point difference with Liverpool. which currently only has a difference of one point with Manchester City, of course Manchester City must be able to show their best game to be able to win the EPL title this season and get rid of Liverpool.

[bitLeap]

Manchester City will of course be very favourites, in terms of strength they are stronger than Manchester United this season and Manchester City will also be playing at home.

For that reason, I will not risk betting on Man United. because it is true that in every aspect the strengths of the two seem clearly different. Erik Ten Hag has not been able to solve Pep Guardiola strategy on the field. This situation is also supported by several Man United players such as Hojlund who are confirmed to be absent. Rashford is no longer the player we know, he is getting duller under Erik Ten Hag. The build up that Ten Hag always implements is monotonous and none of it is effective. Onana, as usual against Man City, will be very stressed, the attacks built by Pep Guardiola certainly have a level of sharpness that is difficult to stop. Kevin de Bruyne in onfire mode made Man City's victory above all else.

[Plaguedeath]

But because in this week's match Man City is the host, I think there is no doubt that Man City will win. It's just that what we need to think about now is how many goals will be scored in this match.

I guess at least goals will be scored by Manchester City because Manchester United will play without a goalkeeper (read: Onana).

If you have noticed Manchester United's odds for the win are increasing in time. It has reached 2.30 now. This must be because of having so many missing players before this game.

It is likely to be very tough for them.

Although Manchester United is in doubtful positions, but we shouldn't forget Nottingham Forrest is nothing in Premier League, they only won 6 matches so far. This is an elimination match, so Manchester United has a big pressure to win in this match, if not it's shameful and many people will mock them.

[Nheer]

The FA-CUP game will give Manchester City a lot of motivation for the Premier League. They have to play Manchester United this Sunday.

This match is very important for Manchester City, even though they are the favorites, especially Manchester United in the last few meetings have always had difficulty beating City and also United are in doubt again after previously showing good progress because their young striker consistently scored goals but now is currently suffering from an injury, but United is still cannot be underestimated because United is targeting to get into the top four so resistance from United will be troublesome for City, and despite City big win over Luton's in the FA Cup, City in the English Premier League is actually in not very good condition as Haaland hasn't scored in the last three games, and City only scored three goals in the last three matches, so there are indeed things that are different for City when they play in the FA Cup and in the English Premier League, and my prediction is that United has a chance of getting 1 point in this match.

Manchester United will be an easy challenge for Manchester City on Sunday because, for the past years, Manchester United has been finding it hard to win against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium. If Manchester United perform the way they did against Fulham at Old Trafford, the job will be so easy for Manchester City. 

I don’t think it will be an easy game for Manchester City because in recent games Manchester United seem to have improved recently in their game play and now that Hojlund seems to have found himself in the league now is something to worry about so Manchester City cannot lose guard in this game. It is a derby match so we can’t expect it to be easy even if Manchester City ends up winning i believe it will be a very tough match as usual.

Now that Haaland and Hojlund have now found form It will be very interesting to see the two of them battle it out to prove who is better among themselves. It’s obvious that Hojlund can do more with the ball at his feet than Haaland but Haaland is more clinical in my opinion and with De Bruyne and Manchester City team Haaland has more advantage to win the battle and score more goals in the match than Hojlund. I love them both and will love to see the two of them on the scoresheet.

[QueenVera]

It is true that in the last few seasons there was relatively fierce competition for the Premier League title, but if we look at last season specifically, it felt as if seemed to be more fierce than it actually was. Manchester City makes the impression that they have reserves in the tank which they can dip into if necessary. Arsenal didn't have those reserves and started to tumble towards the end of the season whereas Manchester City just had a winning streak and put the nail in the coffin. Only then did they tie and lose one game at the end because they knew they can afford it.

This leads me to the question which team has the most reserves that they can activate if necessary? Arsenal this time? I feel they are not that well equipped with reserves. Liverpool has reserves because they are playing without so many superstars at the moment and they are all coming back. And Manchester City always have reserves. It is as if it's part of their nature as a team. Just look at Haaland and how the timing is for him to get into peak shape. It look as if they are just getting started.

Well, football gets interesting when the competition between the teams in the league thrives and is always at top level. One league that hasn’t failed to beat any of that expectations is the English Premier League. This league happens to be one very great league that the competition in the league is making us consider these clubs as real top. The competition in this league is usually fierce that you can’t easily decide the league winner so early till maybe around 3-5 Gameweeks to go.

 Last season we saw one very big dramatic turnaround in the form for Manchester City who were able to overcome Arsenal who held on to top of the league for a very long time pnly to fall off at some point due to inhury crisis. Well this kind of situation tells you that the league isn’t a joke as you can even see how different the clubs from these league plays when they participate in Europe. Well this season, we’re having a 3 horse race and it’s seeming like none is ready to give up or slow down anytime soon. We just have about 1-3 points separating these 3 clubs and they’re all having similar goal differences.

 For me, I think I’ll be rooting for Liverpool to win this league even if not fir anything but to help end the full dominance of pep’s Manchester City. Pep is really a genius and you can see how he’s team has been performing since they got all their players back to the team and you can even see a very strong reserve bench for this team. The power and determination of this Manchester City team is a scare to Arsenal who might not be able to hold on for long. For Liverpool, I think with most of her star players out, they still have a chance if these current boys can be able to hold on and maintain the victories till the stars are back. I have high hopes on Liverpool and will sure be banking on them to give Jurgen the best farewell.

[Ahli38]

Nottingham Forest performance still not consistent yet after losing last match in Premier League against Aston Villa and other side their position standings in domestic league left fewest points with relegation zone and likely FA Cup match against Manchester United will use their second players composition.

This match can actually be a match that is difficult to predict. Because the previous meeting between Nottingham vs Manchester United did not end well for Manchester United. Well, at that time in the Premier League Manchester United lost to Nottingham. And it happened at home to Nottingham. And now in the FA Cup Manchester United have to compete again at home to Nottingham and this will definitely be a revenge match for Manchester United against Nottingham. But we all definitely have doubts about this match. Because the performance of both can also be said to be equally inconsistent. it's just that Manchester United remains much more reliable. So Erik ten Hag's troops seem worthy of being favourites.

@Nheer you have actually said it all, most people think that this particular fixtures is going to be an easy game for Manchester city, but they didn't know that this is a derby game, it can be won by any of this team, I know that almost everyone will be gunning for Manchester city due to their form and top Level players they have in their ranks, but let them not forget that, this is Manchester united, they are also a top level team even though they are not doing well that much compared to the days of sir Alex Ferguson, the only worries I have for this Manchester united team is their defense, can they be able to stop Erling halaand? Especially now that the pass master de bruyne is back from injury, it's going to really be a fascinating encounter between this two teams, let's just watch and see.

[marcous]

Manchester City will of course be very favourites, in terms of strength they are stronger than Manchester United this season and Manchester City will also be playing at home.

Kevin de Bruyne in onfire mode made Man City's victory above all else.

Talking about the strategy of the two coaches, Pep is certainly more skilled in this matter than Ten Hag, everyone would probably agree with that. Meanwhile, in terms of the depth of the squad that both teams have, City is certainly better and more evenly equally. United actually doesn't lack good players, but currently the star players such as Rahsford and Bruno are far from good.

It could be said that United will again drop points at the Etihad, and it is true that betting on a Ten Hag fleet victory would be very risky. Apart from that, the consistency factor of the two teams this season is very different, City suffered 3 defeats while United lost 10 times. It is clear that the Manchester derby this time is still not balanced, because the two teams have very different strengths.

Regarding the course of the match, I predict that both of them will play aggressively but will still be careful, because losing points for City means losing the opportunity to win a trophy. For United, they will definitely try to finish in their rightful place, whether they succeed or not, the important thing is that they just try.

How can not you count onana as a player in the squad? It's hard for united to do 10 vs 11 players. City has battered MU last year with three goals and the upcoming match will be crazier with de bruyne and haaland back again to the squad. City will probably score 5 goals against MU.

Don't you feel sorry for onana by not counting him as a part of the squad? City battered MU at old trafford first leg. The second leg is going to be another disaster for manchester united since it will be playing away.

Im feeling MU will struggle to beat forest or even forest will beat MU soon.

[wiss19]

Especially now that the pass master de bruyne is back from injury, it's going to really be a fascinating encounter between this two teams, let's just watch and see.

No doubt derby games are never been easy with in last few weeks we have some problems for the Manchester City as well with their attack is not performing as they needed and in coming days they are also having Champions League game against Copenhagen and their next few weeks schedule is also challenging because they have visit to Liverpool and then hosting of Arsenal so this all creating things not easy for them just because of this now we can't give good edge to them in this derby game even we all know Manchester United is unpredictable and their recent defeat against Fulham creating serious problems for them and their chances for going into top four.

Manchester United defense is surely not ideal which is also problem in last few away games we have good performance from the Manchester United, but now they are going to face Manchester City which is never been easy with their last three visits never give them anything positive.

For United, they will definitely try to finish in their rightful place, whether they succeed or not, the important thing is that they just try.

The match between the Manchester duo will certainly be an interesting spectacle, so far the two teams have had inversely proportional performances but I am quite sure that both will try to win the derby match with all their might, when talking about the Manchester derby match of course we are not just talking about strategy and score in the match, but every time a club derby is played there will be high rivalry that occurs between the two so that in the end maintaining self-esteem is one of the motivations that makes the players of both teams will play 100% in the match regardless of the performance of the two teams before that the derby match starts.

Indeed, currently Manchester City is above Manchester United in terms of player quality and strategy on the field,however, as I said above, of course Manchester United has very big motivation to be able to maintain their good name as rulers of the city of Manchester, so you can be sure that the match will be very tough and no matter how bad Manchester United's performance is before the derby starts, I am quite sure that the derby match it will only end with a narrow score.

[Gallar]

FA Cup become the only one opportunity left for Manchester United winning the trophy after gap many points in Premier League and I don't sure Erik ten Hag have enough compete to make miracle for domestic league winner. In Fa Cup 5th round, Manchester United has away match for facing Nottingham Forest, Erik ten Hag have to forget last match losses against Fulham and keep trying to win the left opportunity for getting trophy in this season.
Nottingham Forest performance still not consistent yet after losing last match in Premier League against Aston Villa and other side their position standings in domestic league left fewest points with relegation zone and likely FA Cup match against Manchester United will use their second players composition.

Yes, it is true that the FA Cup is the last and only choice for Manchester United to have the opportunity to win a trophy this season. So Ten Hag will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to get maximum results. Although basically Manchester United's chances of winning the FA Cup are not big if you look at their current performance. The reason is that in the last 8 of the FA Cup there is Liverpool, who are currently at the top of the Premier League standings. So if Manchester manages to reach the final or the FA Cup final, it is very likely that Manchester United will be defeated by Liverpool. Because I believe Liverpool can most likely qualify for the FA Cup final.

Then for the Manchester United match which will face Nottingham in this big round, Manchester United will most likely win. Because as you said, Nottingham is currently in danger of being relegated from the first division of the English league. So it is certain that the focus of the Nottingham players will definitely be divided into two and this will definitely result in Nottingham's performance in the match against Manchester United being less than optimal. So Manchester United has a very big chance of advancing to the semifinals of the FA Cup.

So the point is that in the match against Nottingham, Manchester United must be able to remember the playing style of the Nottingham players. Because in the previous match in the English league, Manchester United got a little insight when they lost to Nottingham. So in this match Manchester United should be able to win the match easily.

[redsun114]

I doubt if Manchester United will be able to lift the FA Cup this season, I count them out, looking at other teams that are in the competition Liverpool, Manchester city, and Chelsea and the rest of other teams that are way better in performance this season than the United team, likely for them they may end up being able to reach the semi-final stage of the competition.

For sure I don't think Manchester United have a chance to win the FA cup. The way things are going they are likely to end the season without any trophy. They don't have what it takes to win a trophy this season. Manchester City are gearing up to repeat their last season feat by winning the tribble and Liverpool and on course to win the quadruple. These teams are more hungry for success compared to Manchester United who are yet to identify there pattern of play.

Yes, I agree with their current performance and quality I am sure they are not thinking about FA Cup win because they are currently miserable and their chances for the top four are also near the impossible so they have to do just give their best until end of this season and then done some good changes for the next season because they have good team but sadly coach fail to keep things at the top which bring them down badly.

Their difference of points from fourth spot Aston Villa is also increasing with tonight they are going to face Nottingham for the place in quarterfinal, and we have too many big teams in the race as well for the cup, so this could be also not easy for them to have any chance but still they can give their best for the last four if they will be able to keep consistency.
