Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Cryptomultiplier]

I agree with you because Manchester United players are not in form to match Manchester City players shoulder-to-shoulder at the Etihad Stadium today. Manchester United's performance has made people choose Manchester City to win against Manchester United when the match has not been played.

I would also choose Manchester City to win in today's derby match, especially since this match is Manchester City's home match so their players will definitely work together to play better. And besides that, everyone probably knows that Manchester United is currently not in a better condition after Manchester United lost their home match with Fulham. So it is quite reasonable for most people to choose Manchester City as the winner in today's match.

With Liverpool's late win against Nottingham Forest yesterday, Manchester City will be at their best to make sure they win against Manchester United at Etihad Stadium so that they will be close with Liverpool in the Premier League table. Manchester City remains the favorite to win against Manchester United because Manchester United has not won against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium in a long time.

The game is running now and rashford with his rocket shoot is helping manchester united to lead the game against city away. It was really a spectacular shoot from rashford and that's how rashford must do it. He can consistently attack manchester city through use long shoot like that.
City's defenders are performing so badly and yeah manchester united played defensively in this game. Manchester united used 4141 low block. It may make manchester city feel quite hard to win the game against manchester united. It's very good news for liverpool caused by city will have quite good gaps to the liverpool if club will failed to get three points.
I can't even believe it how manchester city played unstructured in this game. There are still enough time for manchester city to scored two goals at least. I can't even believe it how rashford's shoot was going to the bar, but it is bounced to the inside.
Haaland and de bruyne must be working even better than before. That's amazing to see how rashford's shoot was also making the stadium become so crowded. City needs to avoid in getting embarassing result against manchester united. Manchester united needs to perform even more persistently till the end of game.
MU can stull go up and down. The subs can also change the situation a lot. City needs to be fully attacking united.

It's funny how Rashford who has been goal barren, score in a London derby of this magnitude. It just iterates the confidence the manager and team has in him and although there's still much time to play, this shot was definitely unexpected and brilliantly done.
I was going to admit Manchester city would win, but as it is, I doubt the game is far from begun. More goals will still be recorded. I went with above 2.5 goal margin.

To me am not that surprised by the score line as of now because I stated it down here yesterday that it's going to be a really difficult match for this Manchester city side due to the fact that it's a derby game and their head to head record shows that they both have the ability to beat each other, so Manchester united should not be ruled out completely.

So as it stands, the likes of Liverpool and Arsenal will be hoping that Manchester united can do them a favour by taking points off this Manchester city side. Though Manchester city is seeing much of the ball, but they are not making it count by creating a goal scoring opportunity, but  it's still early hours of the game, let's just watch and see how this game unraveled.

[Queentoshi]

Manchester City created first two opportunities but Manchester United just scored a goal by Bruno Fernandes's assist and a shot from Rashford.

Manchester United started really well and the early goal has given them some confidence in the game. Haaland has not really been in this game, the only good chance that has come for Manchester City is from Foden's opportunity that was saved by the Manchester United goalkeeper. Manchester United should try to get another goal in the first half before the Manchester City coach will have the chance to work his magic in the halftime. If Manchester City fail to win this game, it will give Arsenal the advantage to take tomorrow.

Manchester United were lucky to open the scoring in this match, but now I see how they are making a mistake, that their game comes down to defense so early. And Manchester United defenders allow a lot of shots on their goal, in such a situation it seems that City will achieve their goal and will soon score a goal. They cannot lose now, any loss of points will give Liverpool and Arsenal an advantage. It would be good to equalize the score in the first half, but if they postpone this task until the second half, it may be more difficult.

Manchester city is dominating the game, and Manchester united is playing with fear, and they hardly hold on to the ball for up to 1min. United is busy defending their early go, and I don't know how long they will be able to defend this goal, because City might finally equalize the goal, and that might be the opportunity for City to win the match.

City is playing United half field, but they are not making use of their chances properly, which is making them find it difficult to find the back of the post. The match is currently on the 43rd minutes, and if City fails to equalize the goal, it means that United will end the game with a 1-0 lead.

United is stopping all the shots City are playing denying them a goal in the first half.

[Oluwa-btc]

It looks like Arsenal can maintain their winning streak by this week as well. Because their next opponent is Sheffield Utd in an away game. But this is football of course, there is no guarantee for something to happen.  

I remember how Aston Villa had big difficulties against Sheffield Utd home and barely saved one point. But later on they demolished them by 5-0 away. I would like to see a big win by Arsenal here too. Arsenal are technically going to play against a team with not much goal left in the league. A point loss in a game like this while fighting for the league title wouldn't be acceptable at all. Arsenal to win by at least two goals has 1.50 odds which is nice to add to one's parlay.  

The Gunners I can boast of in the Premier League Competition, but not in the Champions League Competition? Hell No! I don't think they have a good chance of survival. But then, let's see how it goes with the second leg they'd be playing against FC Porto in the Champions League Competition.

Come tommorow night, they'd be visitors to Sheffield United and they or course knows what's at stake right now, Manchester losing so they would go all out to win the game against Sheffield United, while Sheffield United are also struggling to survive out if the pot holes in the red zones.

I'd love to see the Gunners winning the Premier League Competition anyways. Few minutes until the end of the first half for the Manchester derby. Manchester United taking the lead still.

[Popkon6]

I'm surprised Manchester Citizen managed only 2 attacks and one attack success. Because this season Manchester United team is in the sixth place in the points table and Manchester City team is in the second place in the points table. So there is a huge gap between these two teams yet Manchester United managed to score a goal early on, so far in the match Manchester City have 74% of the ball and the remaining 26% of the ball is under the control of Manchester United. Manchester City are always on the attack at the moment and are more likely to score at any time.

[Jody.Drummer]

I saw Manchester United trying to maintain their lead in the first half after Rashford scored in the first 8 minutes. Throughout the first half after they scored a goal they could only survive because Manchester City continued to control the match and tried to find gaps to equalize, but Manchester City's efforts in the first half were fruitless and they had to end with 1 goal behind Manchester United. It was quite surprising when Manchester United actually managed to steal a goal and that happened in the first 10 minutes of the first half.

IN the second half, I was very confident that Manchester City would control the match again, and they were looking for every way to equalize first. Manchester United must come up with another strategy, because if they continue to be pressured it will also be very dangerous for them. Or will Erik Ten Hag install "bus parking" in the second half? interesting for us to see. Pep Guardiola has to evaluate it, otherwise maybe the players will get frustrated because they keep attacking but they can't get any results. The reason is that so far the defense built by Manchester United is also quite tight and neat.

The target for Gardiola in this match today is nothing short of what you have just emphasized which is what I think Manchester city will be doing by full time although they are at the moment in the first half losing as Manchester united has taken the lead with a 1 goal. Gardiola has not to lose this point today as it's crucial to City in the race for the EPL title with few games left to May. Can City come back to change the scores?

[KTChampions]

The first half is over but the score is in United's favour, lol, time to bet on City! Live quotes are super attractive:

1.92 - 3.58 - 3.82

In terms of expected goals, City are already up by 2, and United by 0   The fact that the score is now in favor of United is nothing more than a random fluctuation and I am sure that United will not be able to maintain their luck for the entire second half.
I don’t think that City players will continue to waste 100% chances in the second half, and it’s unlikely that Ten Hag will be able to adjust the defense during the break so that these chances don’t arise.

The match between Manchester United and Manchester City is currently playing the way nobody had expected because before this time it is believe that Manchester City will surely win the match without taking much time but right now is looks like the match is going the opposite direction because currently now Manchester United is leading Manchester City with 1:0 scored during the early minutes of the game by Rashford and it looks that the first half will end without Manchester city scoring any goal, that's why is always good when a club is able to score an early goal because it gives them more energy to increase there performance so if Manchester United has the same energy on there second half they will either win Manchester City or draw the match.

I didn't watch this match but yes, because of the statistics that occurred in the first half, in fact Manchester City really had good dominance. Therefore, it seems like the goal that Rashford managed to score in the first half seemed to happen so quickly, that it might have surprised Manchester City at this moment too . With a 0-1 win for Manchester United in halftime like this, of course Manchester United will maximize their defense. Because of course, having a goal first in an away match against Manchester City is clearly a very expensive goal and of course very important goal. Therefore, it seems that Manchester United is certainly also aware of this, so Manchester United will not do careless things in this match, of course to maintain the 0-1 score they already have this moment.

This is a pretty exciting match. Man City completely dominated the game, but so far they have still failed to score. They had so many opportunities, but Man United played quite well in defense. What made Man City unlucky was that several good opportunities were wasted due to a lack of good finishing touch.

I think Man City will continue to dominate the game in the second half but they must not let their guard down because Man United has a counter attack that can endanger their defense line. Man United even scored 1 goal in the first half through a good counter-attack.

It was an anticipated combo on the starting line, E. Haaland and KDB, unfortunately for the Manchester city fans and those that might have picked them for a first half result, it haven’t been anything to write home about for the Citizens. Haaland seems to be well positioned and is been looked for but, his not getting the best touches to get the ball on target and even in the goal. Despite the fact that they are down by a goal, the Foden pass just within the box is something that E. Haaland should have easily converted. All it needed was a touch and the ball would have been in the goal but no, he jabbed it over the cross bar. That’s really terrible coming from such a high profile player.
Manchester City have still got a chance I must say, they would come in the second half to do the most we hope but, I would like to see Manchester United deprive them of 3points in this fixture.

[Franctoshi]

I wonder if the Onana that I saw at the post is the same Andre Onana I used to know, obviously his keeping ability is beginning to get improved interestingly, then coming to miss of goal, Erling Hasland had a very ample opportunity to have equal the game from that head pass from Phil Foden which would have sealed the match to have become a first half draw game for both side, to me, that goal would have better get scored if Harland had used his head to head the ball in. Lastly Rashford's wonderful shot strike which brought about the goal will be counted as one of the best goals of the month.

Exactly, I don't think that United will be able to withstand the pressure that City is mounting on them in the second half, because there will be substitions and that might put a difference in the game for City, so that they will be able to break the deadlock. United is very lucky in the first half.

City were very unlucky because they missed a lot goals that they were supposed to have scored. Haaland missed an empty post towards the end of the first half. City should try their best to draw or win the game. If not, they will find themselves behind Arsenal. The second half will be in favor of City because I cannot rely on United, since they can be winning a game in the first half, and lose it in the second half. I have seen City several times losing in the first half, and they will do a come back in the second half and win the game.

[Woodie]

Manchester United leading Man City at the break of the first half is some unexpected result especially after that City performance against Luton, and them getting the early lead is something didn't really see could happen with United's shaky form...And Rashford getting a goal against the citizens is definitely a confidence booster that he so needed at the moment to silence his critics!!

And with the second half coming, am thinking  that's the real test to see if the boys can be disciplined at the back to avoid any clumsy fouls and the alike, otherwise GG United

Manchester United of course started very well with that early lead, it has helped them so far to gain some momentum and put Manchester City of balance a bit, however Manchester City haven't been relentless, they've been firing from all cylinders and making sure that they try to equalize the game, though the first half has ended 1-0 in favour of United but I'm seeing more trouble for Manchester United if they don't double the goal in the second half. on the 44th minute, Haaland almost equalize the game if not for the fact that he played the ball over the bar, and the citizens missed a whole lot of several chances, they were literally playing Manchester United half field before the end of the first half, onana too have really been helpful to united with his saves.

United is very lucky in the first half.

The second half of the match has started and Manchester City just equalised in the second half of the match. The pressure is kind of high on Manchester United. I am still expecting more goals from Manchester City in the match. The only luck that Manchester United had was the goal that they scored in the first half of the match. I am still having confidence in Manchester City to win the match. We are just in 60+ minutes. Let’s see how the two clubs are going to perform, but I know Manchester City will want to do everything possible to win the match because they will want to maintain their second position.

"It was the first time, that was audibly clear, that Chelsea supporters had chanted directly about Mauricio Pochettino"

Chelsea fans are no longer keen to see Pochettino as coach. Chelsea management is not getting the expected results despite changing the coach several times. Chelsea management should definitely hire an experienced coach. But before that they must give the coach complete freedom to build his squad. I think the Chelsea management does not allow the coach to work independently. And that's why Chelsea's form has been poor for the last few seasons. Chelsea are now considered an average team in the Premier League.

Chelsea failed to win against Brentford. The match was drawn 2-2. But I watched the match. I don't think Chelsea's performance was too bad. Gradually the team is improving. Chelsea dominated the match with 69% ball possession. But they have several wrong hairs. Pochettino will definitely need to strengthen Chelsea's defence. It is very difficult to perform well in the Premier League if the defense is not strong.

Pochettino never learned from his mistakes. I can also breakdown which mistakes that keep repeated by him anytime. The biggest mistake was doing stupid subs that killed the gameplay of chelsea. So many times i have seen that poch's subs rarely gave good result. This is also making the situation even worst for him.

you are right It's true that Pochettino has plenty of mistakes. He cannot replace players properly. However, Chelsea's squad needs to be strengthened a bit more. In particular, they need to strengthen their attack. And a striker should be included in the squad who will be able to consistently perform well and be able to score goals. If not, we will not see a better performance from Chelsea.

I ahve seen that how chelsea fans chanted poch fuck off and that's it. I can understand it since chelsea has been declining so hard compared to the when abramovich was still the boss. I will mention some mistakes made by pochettino in so many matches, it's started with wrongly putting player in their non actual position, using the player that performs so badly as starting line up, wrongly doing subs that was also affecting the performance from the club during the middle game and many more. Seeing pochettino got chanted by the fans to fuck off from the club is nothing special.

Chelsea coach Pochettino did not learn from the mistakes of the previous matches. He makes the same mistakes almost every match. I would say this is Pochettino's weakness. PSG had a lot of star players. He was also unsuccessful with PSG. PSG can't do well in the Champions League despite having a strong squad. Chelsea's problems were much the same as PSG's. Despite having many star players in the squad, the team could not do well. Chelsea management should not give Pochettino the job of Chelsea coach. While Pochettino is an excellent coach for mid-level clubs, he is not a good coach for big clubs like Chelsea and PSG.

It's caused by the fans are feeling so upset with the performance from chelsea. Fans would not do that if chelsea was getting good results. Chelsea is now in another disaster caused by the club keeps get bad result in EPL. The performance from chelsea has been dropping a lot when it was facing the defensive club.
it likes the defensive strategy became the main weakness owned by chelsea. The performance from the club needs to be even better caused by chelsea must able to get more points to climb up.

Chelsea management should now give Pochettino complete freedom and build a squad as he sees fit. Or sack Pochettino and find a new coach. But the new coach must be given full freedom. Chelsea's performance is not likely to improve if the management interferes with the coach's decisions.
