Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[snipie]

Man City delivered big time. I thought it'll be a much harder game for them and that Man United will raise to their best, but they didn't.
United again proved that they are massively lacking in attacking power. That Rashford's goal in 8th minute was a real beauty and could somewhat explain that United wanted to focus of plying defensively, but it backfired as expected. If they wanted a win, they should've shown more initiative.
Great day for Foden, who has been in the club since he was 4 years old. Also good for Haaland for redeeming himself for that missed chance and scoring a final nail to United's coffin.
Ten Hag might be in trouble after that loss. Man Utd are now 6 points behind the 5th Tottenham, and that gap can widen as Tottenham has one more game to play.

I followed a big part of the game and I can tell that Manchester United couldn't be compared by any mean to Manchester City. The gap is quite big between these two and Onana saved a couple of opportunities because if he wasn't in his day, the result would be worse.
Manchester City dominated totally the game with a lot of attempts while Manchester United only count on counterattacks to score and obviously they failed.
Haaland also wasn't seen a lot, except from the goal he scored, otherwise the result would be larger.

[boltz]

Just when I had a little faith in United to actually perform and show great football when they face a strong team ...but it all shattered in 2nd half when we barely touch the ball. I could also say fairly that United didn't deserve to score as you can't fool football like they tried to do in 1st half so that's why , I personally don't think United deserves to catch top5 in EPL this season. Teams like Aston Villa , Newcastle and Spurs deserves it more.

Arsenal not winning tonight would be the greatest surprise of this season tbh. I have a parlay against them on XFun, and then one that'll actually go through lol. But seeing that they have been so dominant in Premier League lately makes me feel as if betting against them is a simple waste of money

[Cryptomultiplier]

I'd love to see the Gunners winning the Premier League Competition anyways.

Me too but Arsenal are really messing things up while they are getting close to winning the title. We saw it previously and I wouldn't be surprised if it happens in this season as well.  

Otherwise Arteta has built a really good system for this team. Even though Arsenal are a really young team they are doing pretty good work about challenging for top positions. Consistency is the element which is needed for them on the final weeks. Competing against Liverpool and Manchester City for the league title is a really tough work to do now. Both of them are doing great work recently and look decisive to go for the title.  

To me I want the most deserving team to win it regardless of the fact that Manchester city have won it in the past 3years, though if arsenal won it, most football lovers will really be happy with it, but are they consistent enough to push for the title till the final day? Last season everyone thought that the title is coming to London, but arsenal blew that opportunity away by their lack of consistency in the closing stage of the premier league season, but I would have preferred Liverpool winning it, even though I still see Manchester city winning it due to debt and experience, let just watch how everything unraveled as the season goes on

I don't think this season will be like last season. We can say that Arsenal won the championship last season, but this year Liverpool is on fire. Their great form will keep them at the top. Also, they will not be complacent like Arsenal, who were ahead by a large point difference last year. If they continue like this, the championship will be theirs this year.

The difference between Arsenal and Liverpool and what it is like to be at the top and retain the spot is very clear. I believe Liverpool has shown more resilience and consistency and have a more matured team as at now compared to Arsenal.
They would definitely lift the trophy at the end of season and with few matches to go. They have just got to beat Manchester city in their oncoming clash, else their hopes will become bleak.

In less than three hours from now, the English Premier League game between Sheffield United and Arsenal at the Bramall Lane will begin and it's game Arsenal must win to keep their hopes of catching up with league leaders Liverpool. Since the start of the current league season campaign, Arsenal have scored more goals than any other team in the EPL and later tonight, I'm also expecting the gunners to convincingly defeat Sheffield Wednesday and reduce their points difference behind league leaders Liverpool and second placed Manchester City. Mikel Arteta is keen on challenging for the league title till the end of the season and if his team can continue with their current form and performances, I think winning the English Premier League title at the end of the season is very possible for them but will the other two teams that are currently above them want to allow that to happen? No is the answer and that's why Arsenal must forget whatever has happened with the club's title chase in recent years and continue to play each of their remaining fixtures in the English Premier League like they're playing a final.

Last season, Arsenal were at the top of the league table for most parts of the season but failed to end their 20 years wait for the English Premier League title and that has made a lot of people to believe that they won't be able to win the league this season especially now that Arsenal and Liverpool are currently ahead of them but personally, I think there's this spirit of resilience that's currently found in the team but was absent last season. Just like me, I think a lot of people believe that Arsenal can win the league title this season and I will be very happy if they can achieve that feat at the end of the season

[yudi09]

Manchester United defense line was too porous so Onana goal conceded three goals. Manchester City managed to find gaps and weaknesses in Ten Hag men in the second half. Foden managed to be the hero of the victory, De Bruyne and Halaand didn't look very aggressive in today match. The victory achieved by Pep Guardiola squad went as predicted, and Manchester United failed to force their city rivals to a draw. Statistically, Manchester United were only able to fire three shots at the goal, and one shot on target resulted in the only goal. Meanwhile, Manchester City dominated the game, with possession of the ball and number of shots.

Defense line, you convey the situation that actually happened and cannot deny it for certain reasons.
When Rashford scored his first and only goal for Manchester United, it seemed as if they were going to win the match. It turns out they are not quite on par with Manchester City.

We were hoping Manchester United's first goal would help us keep the points gap on Manchester City, but that's how they were.
Manchester United's statistics are also inferior overall to Manchester City.
In the second half, they actually played defensively and that was Rodri and Foden's opportunity to beat their fragile defensive line.

Liverpool has indeed displayed remarkable resilience and consistency in their performances this season. This suggests that they are poised to lift the trophy at the end of the season, but their problem with injuries can make them slip up anytime, eventhough they have handled it very well so far. Liverpool's ability to maintain their spot at the top of the table showcases the strength and maturity of their team, as well as their capacity to navigate their bad games through winning streak.

The Gunners have shown flashes of brilliance lately and have the talent and potential to compete with the best teams in the league. The problem with Arsenal being relatively young squad is their mentality to striving when the pressure of competition takes place. They need to handle that if they want to compete against Mancity and Liverpool.

The outcome of individual matches, such as the highly anticipated clash between Liverpool and Manchester City, can have significant implications for the title race. Victory for Liverpool would undoubtedly strengthen their position. While Liverpool may be the frontrunners in the race for the title, Arsenal, along with Mancity, still have the opportunity to challenge for the title.

In terms of probability, it will be beneficial for Arsenal because they are definitely the favorites in this match even though they are playing as an away club in this match.
Their statistics are quite different which results in us not hesitating to choose Arsenal as the winner in the match they will do.

But on the other hand we also cannot make this too easy and Arsenal should not underestimate their opponents in this match even though they are favorites now.
We know that sometimes on some occasions there are always surprises that are not even too unexpected and this could happen for Arsenal. They are indeed favorites but they should not let their guard down at all with the match that will be held in a few hours.

Arsenal's momentum is still very good and it is different from Sheffield who will be their opponent where they are still very troubled to turn things around and instead have to be in the relegation zone and make them even worse.

Arsenal surely needs to be committed for this game because now it's not relaxed time for them with they also need to be never underestimate their opponents because they already pay the price for this as well in today game they are going to visit Sheffield United which is one of the worst teams in Premier League with their defense which is never been good and they also having just 3 wins from their 26 games are also terrible performance from them with Arsenal current momentum it looks like they will be able to score 3+ goals and surely will be near the Manchester City which is having second spot and 4 points difference.

Premier League is also having surprises and upsets which are happened mostly on tough matches and this can bring also happen because this is one of the league which have competitive matches and quality is also good even teams are at the bottom, but they are always ready for the performing best against any team.

Winning today game is an absolute requirement for Arsenal to continue to be ranked third in the Premier League this season, the performance of Arsenal and Sheffield is like earth and sky so many think that Arsenal will easily beat Sheffield later but they do not think that the Premier League often presents surprises in every game that exists and no exception may happen to Arsenal later,  Sheffield are still desperate for points to at least help them get out of the relegation zone although it looks impossible for them with the remaining games available.

Although maybe Arsenal will be difficult to lose in that game but I think Arteta should not underestimate Sheffield because it could be a bomeerang that will ultimately hurt Arsenal, at the moment Arsenal game is quite consistent and can be said to be very perfect as a team that is competing for trophies and breaking the drought that has almost occurred for 20 years,  I hope Arsenal can maintain their form until the end of the season and no longer repeat every mistake that occurred in the previous season that resulted in losing the championship trophy.

Don't worry, I don't see Arsenal worth doubting in their away match at Bramall Lane today. Arsenal are not underestimating Sheffield under any circumstances and of course Arsenal know that only a win can allow them to keep the points gap with the top two teams low.

Previously, Liverpool and Manchester City had won their respective matches. Liverpool won with difficulty, Manchester City was the same in the derby match. So I think Arteta has no reason to rest several important players before he ensures victory in this match. Even though Sheffield is playing at home, their probability of winning is very low.

Arsenal are clear favorites against Sheffield United. Arsenal should not underestimate the Sheffield United team though. There is no doubt that Sheffield United are a very weak team. But in the Premier League we have seen many times the underdog teams beat the big teams. So Arsenal will definitely play cautiously today. And if the performance of Arsenal players is stable then Arsenal will win by a big margin against Sheffield United.

As Liverpool and City have won their last matches, Arsenal must also win if they want to stay in the title race. Losing points in this match will now make the survival of the teams in the title race uncertain. Even if Arsenal win today's match, they will be 1 point behind Manchester City and 2 points behind Liverpool.

[doomloop]

Scoring Manchester City first in a match doesn’t guarantee a win, Manchester City is not a club that does give up. You know what I notice from Manchester City, if you score them first, they are always motivated, even when you play a defensive game, they will score back. So even when Manchester United scored their first goal, I was expecting Manchester City to score back, which they did, and they ended up winning the match. Manchester United had a few opportunities, but they wasted them all. Rashford was able to score one goal for Manchester United, but he wasted the remaining opportunities that he had. I never expected Manchester United to perform more than they did in the match, I knew they would lose, and it happened.

It's really unfortunate that Manchester United lost the Derby game after being in a winning position. The players showed poor performance and lacked team spirit, and the tactics were not up to par. City's performance yesterday was exceptional and showed how important it is to convert possession into scoring chances efficiently. Onana needs to step up his game; those goals could have been prevented if he was more focused. Additionally, the defenders, especially the defensive midfielders, need to improve as they were off their game and made some crucial errors.

Where you watch Manchester United were winning this match because they were leading until end of the first half which is never been guaranteed to win any game because in second half Manchester City were doing impressive job and never allow them to have any shot on target which is surely best from the quality team, and they score three goals as well which help them for having full three points and another big win against struggling Manchester United.

Now with this defeat chances are going more difficult for the Manchester United to have 5th spot in league table because things are going tougher day by day and their performance is still not good as we have in last season when they were able to achieve fourth spot and chance for the Champions League.

Even if Arsenal win today's match, they will be 1 point behind Manchester City and 2 points behind Liverpool.

Of course it is true, Arsenal should in no way underestimate Sheffield United and it is likely that Arteta will not do that. Just as I said before, Arteta should not rotate his important players before he ensures Arsenal wins the match. Maybe a quick goal is Arsenal's main target in this match so Arteta can think of other solutions in the second half.

The pressure is now on Arsenal after Liverpool and Manchester City won their respective games. Their current burden is how to win the match at home to their opponent, in fact no one should say that Arsenal won it easily. Easy things sometimes end up being difficult because other teams also really want to get points.

[jaberwock]

A smart strategy showed by manchester city in this game. MU did parking but and it's all useless. City's odds to win EPL is not getting change.

Maybe Man United fans feel happy because they can make 1 goal first. But they don't remember, Gurdiola is a genius. My guess is also correct, Man United will play a lot of defense and counterattack. In fact, it shouldn't have been only 3 goals, there were several Haaland chances that were not maximized. Man United piled up a lot of players, but they are not strong in defense. Man City can always enter the penalty area and make chances. Congratulations Man City I favorite you as the EPL champion this season.

It was definitely obvious that they would win, of course United fans would get some hope but it is the hope that kills you. I believe that it is not going to be that much of a big deal and we should not consider this to be the most important part of it.

I believe that we are going to end up seeing City bulldoze over any team anyway, so United wasn't special in that case. Also, they should not be upset that they lost, after all they lost to City and that's normal, not like that would mean anything different in any different situations. We should consider the changes to be a bit different and we could probably not see them do anything shocking at all, we should be able to see them definitely get the win they deserved.

[BITCOIN4X]

There is nothing to doubt about Arsenal today, a win is the most logical thing to consider. Arteta has emphasized that the team must not lose anything in every match regardless of who they play against, meaning that Arsenal will require themselves to continue to maintain their best performance and get maximum points in every match.

This season, Arsenal still has a chance to win the title, especially because the points gap between the teams is very low. Arsenal just need to think about their performance instead of thinking about other teams, that's what can help them lead the standings if Manchester City and Liverpool slip up.

Given Arsenal's current form with their aim of winning premier league I highly doubt they will underestimate any opponent in the Premier League. It seems they are determined not to falter in their remaining matches. In today's fixture against Sheffield United, the challenge may not be significant for Arsenal, as Sheffield United has been struggling lately. In fact, I anticipate Arsenal dominating the first half, potentially securing a comfortable lead. This could provide an opportunity for Arsenal to rest key players in preparation for upcoming matches, particularly against Porto in the second leg of the Champions League.

With the Premier League and Champions League fixtures looming, strategically managing player fatigue becomes crucial for Arsenal's success. Therefore, a convincing win against Sheffield United early in the match could allow Arsenal to conserve energy and optimize their squad rotation for the demanding schedule ahead.

I don’t doubt Arsenal not winning this match because they know what is at stake and what they need in order to stand at a better chance to win the title race. Arsenal are the better team in this match and no one will give their hope to Sheffield United to prevail in this match over Arsenal.

They have only drawn one match in all of those last five meetings with Arsenal with the last one been a 5-0 win for Arsenal against them. Sheffield United are the team currently in the bottom of the table and with their style and quality of players, they don’t stand a chance to win Arsenal tonight.

The odds of the match have proven itself also. Sheffield United have only won one match out of their last five games and Arsenal won four of them with only the one they lost been the champions league match which does not count here in this match. Arsenal will take the victory today and I’m certain they will win with a big margin too.

That's right, Arsenal doesn't want to lose the opportunity to compete for the title so there is no other choice Arsenal must win all the remaining matches no matter who the opponent is. Arsenal were the most consistent team last month by winning all the matches and today Arsenal will continue it beat Sheffield with a big score, I don't know what happened to Arsenal recently because they played aggressively and won with a big score. In 6 matches Arsenal has scored 25 goals they even beat Liverpool last month this is an extraordinary achievement. Can you guess how many total goals Arsenal will score today? I think Arsenal will score 4-5 goals and maybe only conceded one goal.

It's really unfortunate that Manchester United lost the Derby game after being in a winning position. The players showed poor performance and lacked team spirit, and the tactics were not up to par. City's performance yesterday was exceptional and showed how important it is to convert possession into scoring chances efficiently. Onana needs to step up his game; those goals could have been prevented if he was more focused. Additionally, the defenders, especially the defensive midfielders, need to improve as they were off their game and made some crucial errors.

Just because they score one goal and take the lead doesn't make them the winner, the important thing is to be ahead when the match is over. Everyone who watched the match saw that Manchester City would turn the match around, they played much better. Onana was not bad, in fact, if the score was not different, it is thanks to him. United's defense was generally poor. Any team concedes a goal against City anyway. That's why United needed to find more chances to score goals, but they couldn't do it. Even though Manchester City are currently in second place in the league, they play the best football in the league and the number one favorite for the championship.

We will be able to see for ourselves when they play the match against Liverpool, I think it will determine a lot of things, at the very least it could change the teams places in the table. Moreover, both teams are very evenly matched, rarely making mistakes, so this match will really have a big impact on their positions

[vennali]

Near identical stats at home, in the Premier League. 2 Powerhouses, Liverpool and Manchester City. Next weekend will be action packed when Liverpool faces Manchester City at Anfield. Liverpool will have the home advantage but will that stop Manchester City? Whoever wins, goes to or remains on top while a draw would mean, the standings don't change much. Liverpool would stay on top in that case.

Manchester City is now only one point away from Liverpool and the competition to become EPL champions this season is getting fiercer and more exciting. Liverpool, Man City and Arsenal have the same chance of becoming champions, while in the Sheffield United vs Arsenal match, I think Arsenal will win this match easily because of course Arsenal will not make any mistakes in that match.

Man City in the Derby match, the comeback in the second half made Man successful in winning in all aspects of the match, and of course still competing with Liverpool and Arsenal to retain the championship title, 4 times in a row in EPL history. Interestingly, next week Man City will visit Liverpool's home ground. In my opinion, this is like a final match for both teams, this victory will make them EPL league champions.
