Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

[Sebas.tian]

Manchester United should abolish any thought of  qualifying for next season champions league. They Haven't really played that well this campaign to deserve a top 4 finish.

Manchester United performance is not really good this season, they have been inconsistent since the beginning of the season which is the reason why they are currently in their current position. Aston villa is currently in 4th position, and Tottenham is in 5th position, how will Manchester United be able to beat this two clubs to take over 4th position? Maybe champions league is not for Manchester United next season, they will have to wait till another season, am not really sure yet maybe Manchester United will be able to end the season in top 5 this season, taking over 5th position from Tottenham won’t really be a easy one for them.

Based on their position in the premier league table, you will know that Manchester united have a long way to go before people will begin to see good performance from Manchester united, because it look like their manager is trying to improve the team in this season so that they will be able to display excellent next season.  Aston villa and Tottenham are strong teams, people are still looking up in this season but for Manchester united to take over 4th position and 5th position from those two teams, I think it will be difficult because they will try their possible best to maintain all those positions till the end of the tournament. If Manchester united can win all their matches, they will be able to reach 4th position but it will be difficult for Manchester united to defeat all their opponent in their remaining matches.

I don't expect to see a better performance from Manchester United. And I don't see the possibility that Erik Ten Hag will be able to strengthen this team. ten Hag has had enough time to strengthen the Manchester United squad. But I would say he failed completely. Manchester United's performance in the previous season was somewhat stable. So we thought Manchester United will be able to maintain the consistency of performance this season. But Manchester United's performance this season is very erratic.

Both Tottenham and Aston Villa are likely to finish fourth in the table. Both these teams are performing quite well this season. I don't see any chance of Manchester United finishing fourth or fifth in the table.

Assuming Manchester United can win the rest matches, there's no guarantee they will able to reach 4th position because if both Tottenham and Aston Villa are win streak, nothing will change.

I'm sure Manchester United able to reach at least 5th position, all of them will face Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City, the thing is Manchester United always has bigger chance to pull upsets than Aston Villa or Tottenham.

[Justbillywitt]

Manchester United will face major obstacles in making this happen. United's rivals, Tottenham and Aston Villa, should consistently fail to accumulate points. Tottenham is only 6 points ahead, united while Aston Villa is 9 points to the united. The main issue is that the remaining matches are becoming fewer, and it is extremely difficult for Manchester United to overtake Aston Villa and Tottenham considering fewer matches remaining make it even harder and mu potentially widen the gap.

Things at least look better for Manchester United as if they win their delayed match, they will have only 6 points less than both Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur. It is a smaller gap than weeks ago and with 9 more matches, Manchester United can hope that Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur will lose points because these competitors are not stable in their performances.

However, Manchester United must get nearly perfection in their rest matches and it is very challenging task for them. If they can not do it, dropped points from two competitors might not be helpful for Manchester United to improve their ranking at all.

Manchester United are not consistent with their own games, they can't go 5 straight games without losing a game. While they are waiting for Aston Villa and Tottenham to drop points, I can bet that Manchester United will be the first to drop points. Manchester United inconsistency in the earlier part of the season was the reason why they are still in this position. While they were losing Aston Villa and Tottenham were busy gathering points. It is really going to be difficult for Manchester United to overtake two teams who are determined to grab the champions league spot. But this is football anything can happen, but to be realistic it will be difficult for United to overtake Aston Villa in the top 4.

I know this might be easy writing but, when you compare the games between these sides they're to play until the season comes to an end, you'd see that Manchester United has got a lesser dramatic games and fixtures ahead. Only if they can make good use of it and overtake Tottenham Hotspur.

Most of you'll wrote Manchester United off even before the game kicked off against Liverpool for that Fa Cup Competition. What was the result finally at the end of the game? I believe this would be the reviving force that would definitely back Erik Ten Hag. He has quality names back from Injury with no European games or fixtures to play, if they can take it week in week out, they'd definitely level up to the fourth position.
I have that believe they'd make it happen. Why no complains of Marcus Rashford not pressing, is he not the problem with Manchester United? If that was Cristiano Ronaldo, lots would have been said about the most consistent player over the last fifteen fauckin years.

Yes, I also share the same sentiment as you, the higher level of inconsistency in Manchester united team is just too much for a team that wanted to play in Europe most prestigious competition, the uefa champions league,  so I really think they are going to struggle to qualify, because their is never a guarantee that Manchester united can maintain a winning streak and be expecting Aston villa and Tottenham Hotspur to drop point, because with their high level of inconsistency, it's more likely for them to drop point than the other teams just as @octradism has already said. So I think uefa Europa league is more likely than the uefa champions league.

When assessing Manchester United's performance this season, it's evident that their consistency leaves much to be desired. This inconsistency casts doubt on their ability to secure a spot in the top four. Even though teams like Aston Villa and Tottenham, currently positioned ahead of Manchester United, have also experienced dips in form, the latter's irregularity presents an opportunity for these teams to overtake them.

Looking ahead, Manchester United faces challenging fixtures against formidable opponents such as Liverpool, Arsenal, and Newcastle. Given their recent performances, it seems unlikely that they will emerge victorious against these tough opponents. Therefore, based on these observations, it's uncertain whether Manchester United will finish the season in the top four and qualify for the next year's Champions League.

(...)
It says Sir Jim Ratcliffe will be considering Ten Hag future after end of this season because if Ten Hag unable to bringing Manchester United to finish at champion league zone (...)

Man United are not very lucky when it comes to managers after Alex Ferguson retired. They keep changing them every season or two with no visible effects.
Now the latest rumours are they are considering Gareth Southgate, but Ten Hag is almost guaranteed to keep his job until the end of the season.

The team's performance is definitely far from satisfactory. After finishing 3rd last season, fans were hoping Man Utd would engage in the fight for the title this season, but instead, they're witnessing their team struggling to even break into the top 5.
There's clearly something wrong with United's attack, they've only scored 39 goals this season, which is very low for a club of their calibre (for Comparison, Arsenal has 70).

I don't think anything could save Ten Hag's position unless he manages to please the fans and club owners by winning against Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal.

Look, you're 100% right about United post-Ferguson. We've gone from a force of nature to a...well, lets just say its not pretty. Used to be Old Trafford was untouchable. Now we're just praying for decent results. This attack is pathetic. 39 goals? Arsenal has almost double that. Ouch.

Ten Hag...Im gonna be honest, the guy might not be the answer. Not his fault the club's a mess, but those numbers are brutal. That third place last year fooled us. Right now, it feels like we're backsliding. Forget the title, will we even make top 5? If not, changes NEED to happen. Maybe big wins against Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal would buy him time, but thats a tall order. We're missing that fire, that United spirit. Something's gotta change, and fast.

[len01]

Yes, it's true that Manchester United actually have a very tough task in the remaining games this season if they want to overtake Aston Villa and Tottenham. But actually just seeing Man United ranked now is quite a good thing considering they started the season quite badly. Man United started to improve since the middle of the season. And it's the same thing as last season. But in the current season I feel Man United will not be able to repeat the same thing as last season. Namely, last season Man United even got consecutive wins in almost all the remaining matches last season which made Man United get a ticket to the UCL in the end at that time. So, this season, I don't think Man United will be able to do the same thing, even just to get a ticket to the European League. Because a difference of 6 or 9 points is actually quite difficult to catch. Because Man United must hope that Aston Villa and Tottenham experience several defeats in the remainder of this season.

It is not an easy task for Ten Hag to compete with Aston Villa who are currently in their best performance and Man United is very different from last season when in the remaining matches they improved their performance with very high consistency, whereas this season Man United seems to be having difficulty competing with several teams above them.
Spurs are currently in good condition and are even ready to defend their position so as not to be overtaken by Man United and on the one hand we don't know yet whether this international break will have any Man United players injured or not and if that happens to Man United players it will definitely happen the condition of Ten Hag team is getting worse.
we might be able to see the next 2 matches if Man United manages to get past Brentford and Chelsea, maybe we still have hope, but if we play against Chelsea, Man United won't get satisfactory results. I'm sure Man United will fail to get a ticket to the UCL or the European league.

I'm not sure if Manchester United will be able to get winstrea all of their remaining games. Manchester United must maintain a winning streak until the final match of the EPL because it is their only chance of finishing in the top four.

Of Manchester United's remaining 10 matches, I see that half of them will face tough matches, against Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle, Arsenal and Brighton and in these five tough matches it is very possible for Manchester United to lose, even when they face a team that is considered weak, they are still possible to only get a draw and catch up from six points behind Tottenham and nine points behind Aston Villa will never be easy to do, although Tottenham and Aston Villa can get disappointing results but so can Manchester United.
It could be said that Manchester United is quite late in making improvements to their team because they are increasingly lagging behind other teams.

And also their success in getting rid of Liverpool in the FA Cup is not an accurate picture that Manchester United will be able to produce three points in all the remaining matches and just one or two draws will make their chances even close to catch Tottenham, especially Aston Villa in standings.

My prediction this time is that Aston Villa will compete in the Champions League even though in the future they won't be able to do much unless the club buys enough players with better playing quality.

[klidex]

Although I know Manchester United played a very good match against Liverpool in the FA Cup quarterfinal, which was one of their best performances this season, that shouldn't have given us hope that Manchester United can play that well in their next match. Although Manchester United has players who, when they are serious, can play very well and win a match, sometimes their performances look like an academy team or a small team that doesn't know how to play football. For that reason, I don't trust Manchester United as much.

Manchester United did perform very well when facing Liverpool in the FA Cup yesterday, because this match was played at Manchester United's home ground so the game looked very dominant in possession of the ball. I'm also not sure Manchester United can win against Liverpool in the second match, especially since this match will be played at Liverpool's home ground. Manchester United will definitely have great difficulty in attacking, because Manchester United's performance still doesn't look consistent in every match and they always make a lot of mistakes, especially in Manchester United's back line.

Sometimes Manchester United's performance is good but they are not very consistent in the matches they play, just like Chelsea who are able to apply pressure when facing fellow elite clubs. Being able to beat Liverpool was a bit surprising, coincidentally the match was Manchester United's home match so he had a greater opportunity to apply pressure, even though Liverpool were favorites in that match. But because this was not the main competition, it was natural and it was possible that Liverpool give Manchester United a chance to prove their ability to be able to win the FA Cup, even though if I look at it it looks like Manchester United will face Manchester City in the final.

At the meeting in the Premier League, I am also not sure that Manchester United will do the same thing considering that Manchester United will be playing away so Liverpool's chances of winning are very big. Moreover, Liverpool doesn't want to lose points in the Premier League for the remainder of this season because Liverpool is still fighting with 3 clubs. top in the title race if Liverpool lose then their position will be shifted and the clubs above will be happy and try to get important points.

I don't think anything could save Ten Hag's position unless he manages to please the fans and club owners by winning against Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal.

It would be best if Ten Hag left Manchester United at the end of the season because I don't think he can do anything positive for the team. Manchester United has been under bad coaches for a long time; last season, they even tried to qualify for the Champions League, but after Hag  try to separate some good players from the team, the team's performance changed. Although Ten Hag is doing his best, it doesn't seem to be helping the team; Manchester United now feels like a small team that escapes the relegation zone to play in the Premier League, leaving many of their supporters dissatisfied.

Since Ten Hag has stated that Christiano Ronaldo is Manchester United's problem, I have believed that he is going to ruin his coaching career. This is because, when Ronaldo is on the pitch, the team performs well, even if they occasionally score goals and tries to win games. However, since Ronaldo left, Manchester United has struggled to win games, even after making numerous player acquisitions. For this reason, I advise Ten Hag to leave the team in the same manner that Xavi left Barcelona.

[MusaMohamed]

It is not an easy task for Ten Hag to compete with Aston Villa who are currently in their best performance and Man United is very different from last season when in the remaining matches they improved their performance with very high consistency, whereas this season Man United seems to be having difficulty competing with several teams above them.

Manchester United have bigger tradition than Aston Villa and before this season, Aston Villa were not stronger than Manchester United. Ten Hag, after about 2 seasons, shows that he is failing to improve Manchester United and worse, they are starting to fail, become weaker than average clubs like Aston Villa.

When Ten Hag was hired, Manchester United did not hire him to compete with Aston Villa but with Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester City and Arsenal. Now, things are not improved but tend to be worse.

Spurs are currently in good condition and are even ready to defend their position so as not to be overtaken by Man United and on the one hand we don't know yet whether this international break will have any Man United players injured or not and if that happens to Man United players it will definitely happen the condition of Ten Hag team is getting worse.

Spurs in history can not compare with Manchester United and if Manchester United have to be at similar level of Spurs in comparison, it shows that their quality is no longer good.

We also have to count that Spurs recent seasons are no longer one of strongest clubs in Premier League. They failed to join top four of Premier League recent years and now they are coming closer to that area by standing above Manchester United.

I think Arsenal has a better chance of beating Manchester City in their Premier League match on Sunday at Etihad Stadium. Three Manchester City players were injured while on international duty for England, and there are doubts about being ready for the Arsenal match. This will be an advantage for Arsenal. Arsenal will dominate most of that match because John Stones and Kyle Walker are among the injured Manchester City players.

This is where the squad dept we are always taking about have to come in. Manchester City has lots of players to fill in the space of the injured players. City played has been playing for long without John Stones for earlier part of the season and I know Guardiola will make adjustments to his squad. If Rodri was the player that was injured I would have been worried. Yes the absence of the players will show on the squad but it's not a criteria to judge that Arsenal will win at the Etihad stadium. Manchester City know what is at stake in this game and they can't lose it.

[SmartCharpa]

Manchester United will face major obstacles in making this happen. United's rivals, Tottenham and Aston Villa, should consistently fail to accumulate points. Tottenham is only 6 points ahead, united while Aston Villa is 9 points to the united. The main issue is that the remaining matches are becoming fewer, and it is extremely difficult for Manchester United to overtake Aston Villa and Tottenham considering fewer matches remaining make it even harder and mu potentially widen the gap.

I'm not sure if Manchester United will be able to get winstrea all of their remaining games. Manchester United must maintain a winning streak until the final match of the EPL because it is their only chance of finishing in the top four.

Tottenham and Aston Villa can also perform better in late-season competitions, which will make MU get into the top . Manchester United has no chance of qualifying for the UCL if Tottenham and Aston Villa continue to perform well. This is one of Manchester United's biggest obstacles.
Ten Hag may be fired soon if he is unable to help Manchester United get into the top four.

I did not expect this season to be the same as previous season, when Manchester United performed poorly but eventually qualified for the Champions League. Manchester United's performance this season has been completely different; we cannot trust them right now because they can win or lose any of their games; it will be very difficult for Manchester United to win all of their remaining games; Manchester United may only get points against opponents in the relegation zone, but not against tough opponents. We've only seen how Manchester United performed against Liverpool in their last FA Cup game; they only become serious when they face a big opponent.

Manchester United is now in sixth place with a goal difference of zero, Tottenham and Aston Villa are not weak teams at the moment, I believe none of these clubs will lose their position to finish in the top four because they are in good form as well as capable of qualifying. Man United is nine points behind Aston Villa and six points behind Tottenham; However, I believe Aston Villa and Tottenham will continue to win their remaining games as well. They might fire Ten Hags at the end of the season.

Three Manchester City players were injured while on international duty for England, and there are doubts about being ready for the Arsenal match. This will be an advantage for Arsenal. Arsenal will dominate most of that match because John Stones and Kyle Walker are among the injured Manchester City players.

Arsenal are in good shape and mentality after they have reached the top of the Premier League in the meantime, and of course the game against Manchester City will be a real test of their mentality at the moment, you say if Arsenal are lucky because Walker and Stones are injured, but I think losing Martinelli and also Saka might make Manchester City luckier in that game guys.

In recent days Arteta still doubts if Martinelli and Saka can play in the game because of injuries they have received before, so far we know that Martinelli and Saka are the two spearheads of Arsenal who often terrorize the opponent's defense from the right and left sides of Arsenal's game, so when Saka and Martinelli are likely to miss the game, of course the injuries to Walker and Stones will not affect Arsenal, because it is certain Their attack will not be as sharp as usual,if Walker and Stones are absent then Guardiola still has a good stock of players to replace them, but if Saka and Martinelli are absent, are there other players worthy of Arteta reliance in the game?

Man United is nine points behind Aston Villa and six points behind Tottenham; However, I believe Aston Villa and Tottenham will continue to win their remaining games as well. They might fire Ten Hags at the end of the season.

Manchester United on difficult position for raising to the top fourth position standings, has many points left behind the teams above position standing and their difference goals zero make difficult for qualifying to Champion League spot standings next season. Next match against Brentford must secure three points and keep close behind Aston Villa or Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United waiting for by many difficult opponent teams on ten matches left from Liverpool, Chelsea, and Arsenal will make difficult for taking three points on all matches left.
But not only with Manchester United but also Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur are competitor team fighting for top fourth position have the same difficult opponent team too.
So interested to see the latest top fourth standings position will place by Aston Villa, Tottenham Hotspur or Manchester United although with the United points gap too far from Aston Villa.

Three Manchester City players were injured while on international duty for England, and there are doubts about being ready for the Arsenal match. This will be an advantage for Arsenal. Arsenal will dominate most of that match because John Stones and Kyle Walker are among the injured Manchester City players.

I don't think we will watch a match where any team can dominate. Even though there are injured players or players who cannot take part in the field, the strengths of both teams are quite close to each other. Additionally, the team that wins this match will make great progress towards the championship. That's why I think both teams have a chance in the match, it will be a very exciting and difficult match. We will watch one of the most important matches of this season

[wakier]

Based on their position in the premier league table, you will know that Manchester united have a long way to go before people will begin to see good performance from Manchester united, because it look like their manager is trying to improve the team in this season so that they will be able to display excellent next season.  Aston villa and Tottenham are strong teams, people are still looking up in this season but for Manchester united to take over 4th position and 5th position from those two teams, I think it will be difficult because they will try their possible best to maintain all those positions till the end of the tournament. If Manchester united can win all their matches, they will be able to reach 4th position but it will be difficult for Manchester united to defeat all their opponent in their remaining matches.

Assuming Manchester United can win the rest matches, there's no guarantee they will able to reach 4th position because if both Tottenham and Aston Villa are win streak, nothing will change.

I'm sure Manchester United able to reach at least 5th position, all of them will face Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City, the thing is Manchester United always has bigger chance to pull upsets than Aston Villa or Tottenham.

Man United's performance was not completely convincing to achieve consecutive wins in the remaining matches until the end, it seems impossible for a club that is not very consistent like Man United. If indeed Man United is able to do that then we should also appreciate it and that is a good achievement but if Hotspur and Aston Villa were caught off guard because they were not very consistent so Man United could occupy their position, the difference in points between Man United and the 2 teams above them was not that big, therefore each team could still improve their performance so they could perform well and win in a row.
