Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[ndutndut]

Actually, I can't believe why Man United got 2 conceded goals in minute 90+10' & 90+11'. They lost focus on the injury time and their defense looked very badly. They also didn't try to keep their intensity of their attacks on the Chelsea defense area. If they continued to play aggressively in attacking, I'm sure Chelsea won't have the chance to give a pressure for Man United. Again, I think the problem is in the tactics used by Ten Hag.

For the next match against Liverpool, I have no idea for Man United. I only think they will be defeated again if they lost focus as they played against Chelsea yesterday. There are too many problems in Man United squad, I think Man United management must consider to sack Ten Hag and buy stronger defenders. I want to see the current defenders will be put all on the transfer list. 

For Man United, the defeat against Chelsea was very painful, especially since they were already ahead but Chelsea managed to recover in extra time, of course this was Erik Tan Hag's fault because he couldn't maintain his lead and of course this defeat made Man United even further away from the top four positions. Yes, it's true, Chelsea's game is difficult to predict, their performance fluctuates, when they face strong teams they always manage to surprise them, but when they face weak teams they have difficulty winning.

Man United will have a tough schedule of course after losing to Chelsea and in the next match they will face Liverpool again, of course with this kind of mentality Liverpool can easily steal three points at Old Trafford.

Regarding Erik Tag Han's future, I think he deserves another season. This team has been riddled with injuries all season, especially our back line. It's just a bad season. Man United needs to be patient and give him another season under a better structure and the board needs to offload the players it doesn't want and get the players it wants. Give him a good summer transfer window. Because if the club fires him now or in the summer, Man United is back to square one and it will be difficult for Man United to develop.

The 32th round will start by Manchester City, playing away, facing Crystal Palace at their home and still Manchester City look way favourite.
Now their direct rival, Liverpool, will play against Manchester United which is very interesting game. Manchester United will make a big favour to Manchester City if they could win against them.
Brighton - Arsenal is interesting too even though Arsenal is better and Brighton performances are hovering..

You're right on your observations on the big three but I'm more interested in Man City's game. It's an early kick off to start with and clubs have often found it hard to be their best in early kick offs. Man City are clear faves to win but then again I won't put it past Palace to want to prepare a surprise package for Pep and his men. The last time these two met, they drew 2-2 all thanks to a late penalty from Micheal Oliseh at the Etihad and the last time the Eagles won the Citizens was in the 2020/21 campaign. 2-0 the game ended in favor of Crystal Palace.
 One thing I'd advise them if they hope to get a shot at City is that they should try not to be too defensive; which they aren't good at to start with, but rather come out, match City toe for toe as that has proven to confuse and disorganize things for Pep's men.

[Plaguedeath]

The upcoming match, I think both Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal will win easily.

For Manchester United vs Liveprool, this will be interesting because Manchester United was able to beat Liverpool in the previous match, so I feel there's kind of uncertainty to Liverpool. But I'm sure Liverpool has better form to Manchester United in the upcoming match because Manchester United still haunted with their previous lose.

For bettors, take a look with the match Newcastle vs Fulham, Newcastle is currently have so many players injured and the match will held in Craven Cottage, so this should be Fulham's game.

The upcoming match, I think both Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal will win easily.

Probably yes for arsenal but not for chelsea. Chelsea won against united but it 's got draw against burnley with 10 players. This club's performance is still up and down drastically. Im not even interesting to take bet on chelsea this week.

For Manchester United vs Liveprool, this will be interesting because Manchester City was able to beat Liverpool in the previous match, so I feel there's kind of uncertainty to Liverpool. But I'm sure Liverpool has better form to Manchester United in the upcoming match because Manchester United still haunted with their previous lose.

You meant united on FA cup, right? This can be a revenge for liverpool or another matches that will push liverpool to miss three points. I can't really guess the result from this match. I tried to save myself from betting on double chance liverpool or united.

For bettors, take a look with the match Newcastle vs Fulham, Newcastle is currently have so many players injured and the match will held in Craven Cottage, so this should be Fulham's game.

Newcastle may be winning this since it was never lose against fulham this season. Fulham may be trying to own the ball possessions and newcastle play lowblock.

With Tottenham chasing tightly right behind Aston Villa for the 4th spot on the table, the players of Aston Villa might need to put in a lot of effort for their remaining games in the English Premier League this season if they wish to qualify for the Uefa Champions League next season. The offense of Brentford are weak at the moment even with the return of Ivan Toney and I think Aston Villa should be able to avoid Brentford from forcing a draw upon them and get the crucial 3 points at the final whistle.

I am quite sure that Aston Villa will win this match because Brentford is very bad in away matches, but still Aston Villa cannot be careless in this match considering that Brentford's game which is quite aggressive without tight guarding is very likely to break through Aston Villa's defense.
There is no other choice for Aston Villa but to win the match because the difference in points with Tottenham is only two, but their rivals have a postponed match against Chelsea so there is no room for Aston Villa to make mistakes if they want to be in the top four at the end of the season.

And Tottenham will face a relatively easier match against Nottingham Forest by winning three points, Tottenham will continue to maintain the opportunity to overtake Aston Villa place, because for Ange Postecoglou, being able to bring this team to play in the Champions League in his first season as Tottenham coach is an extraordinary achievement considering that he is not the coach is wellknown or has experience with big clubs so at that time it was quite doubtful.

Aston Villa just suffered a heavy defeat, 1-4, on the field of defending champion Man City. Although that result did not affect Aston Villa's position on the rankings, it put coach Unai Emery and his team under great pressure. Currently, they are only 2 points ahead of the 5th ranked team, Tottenham, while playing 1 more match than Tottenham. If Aston Villa continues to lose points in the match against Brentford, the risk of them being knocked out of the Top 4 is very high. There was a time when Aston Villa was considered a dark horse in the Premier League championship race. However, now this team aims to protect its position in the top 4. Aston Villa really needs to try because if Tottenham wins the replay, Aston Villa will be pushed to 5th place. Aston Villa's position is shaking violently, and they must win at all costs in the match against Brentford.

Yes, the temporary result between Chelsea vs Man United is: 2 - 3

I thought, and I was very confident at that time, that Man United would win, with conditions like this. But afterward, it turned out to be completely unexpected. Losing quite horribly, because you really lost at the last minute. This is really not good for Ten Hag and Man United itself. Disappointment is of course very clear, not only among Man United fans, but also the players themselves.

In the second half and starting at the end, it turned out that Chelsea actually turned things around. They dominated the match and carried out quite significant attacks. Therefore, they can take advantage of this opportunity to add goals, and that is the right choice. Whether the goal comes from a penalty or a pure goal from a player, it's the same, the point is that the more goals, the winner.

Of course, the attackers and midfielders felt a lot of disappointment who had fought very hard to get a bigger score, but it was the defenders who were disappointed and in yesterday's match there was no one to blame except ETH who currently has the responsibility to organize the players into better, but apparently ETH failed to give Manchester United a victory and even a very embarrassing defeat.
Chelsea felt very proud of being able to beat Manchester United by taking advantage of a very good situation when MU's defense was starting to become fragile and easy to break down.
As a neutral fan, seeing MU's defeat yesterday really made me feel very sad and embarrassed.

For bettors, take a look with the match Newcastle vs Fulham, Newcastle is currently have so many players injured and the match will held in Craven Cottage, so this should be Fulham's game.

Crystal Palace managed to surprise Manchester City in the first game of the season by holding Manchester City 2-2 draw, and maybe they will be able to surprise Manchester City again in the next game, Arsenal vs Brighton I think it will not be an easy game because after all Brighton this season is performing quite well and has a good performance so far,  While Chelsea against Shefield it will obviously be an easy game for chelsea if they can maintain the game like they did against Manchester United yesterday, but if Chelsea return to their poor form of course against Sheffield United may potentially repeat the poor result Chelsea got against Burnley.

For the Liverpool vs Manchester United match, of course, it will be very decisive for both teams including Liverpool who really cannot to lose the match to maintain their championship chances this season, while Manchester United who failed to defend the victory against Chelsea yesterday certainly has a mission to rise and also take revenge in the match, besides indeed winning 3 points will still keep their chances of staying close to Tottenham.
Newcastle vs fulham, to be honest if the game will be a fierce match, although Newcastle is currently hit by injuries but I think they still deserve to be favored over fulham in the game later, especially so far Newcastle has a good record over Fulham.

I think it will not be difficult for Man City and Arsenal to get a win in the next match. Crystal Palace and Brighton may not be easy opponents for Man City and Arsenal, but with the motivation to win the title, I think both of them will definitely be able to get rid of that obstacle. What actually faces a difficult path is Liverpool. Their opponents had just lost to Chelsea and their performance is very inconsistent. But, Liverpool still cannot take Man United lightly because Man United often plays well when playing against big teams, and they could make a surprise in this match, moreover, Man United will play at home.

[Mayor of ogba]

Manchester United could not maintain their league against Chelsea yesterday in the Premier League. In the space of one minute, Palmer scored two goals that helped Chelsea beat Manchester United. Manchester United's next match is against Liverpool at Old Trafford. Manchester United would not want to drop another point when they play Liverpool. Manchester United drew with Liverpool at Anfield in the Premier League, and Manchester United also beat Liverpool in the FA Cup. Even though Manchester United have been inconsistent this season, Liverpool will find it difficult to beat Manchester United at Old Trafford. 

Actually, I can't believe why Man United got 2 conceded goals in minute 90+10' & 90+11'. They lost focus on the injury time and their defense looked very badly.

There are too many problems in Man United squad, I think Man United management must consider to sack Ten Hag and buy stronger defenders. I want to see the current defenders will be put all on the transfer list. 

Chelsea scoring a goal against Manchester United in the 90+10 minute is okay, but Manchester United conceding another goal from Chelsea in the 90+11 minute is something that Manchester United's defense needs to be questioned about. Manchester United lost to Chelsea because of defensive errors, not the tactics used by Erik Ten Hag.

Now their direct rival, Liverpool, will play against Manchester United which is very interesting game. Manchester United will make a big favour to Manchester City if they could win against them.
Brighton - Arsenal is interesting too even though Arsenal is better and Brighton performances are hovering..

In this match it is clear that Manchester City will still win because Crystal Palace is not tough opponent, it is indeed an away match for Manchester City but that will not affect anything for Manchester City victory.
Crystal Palace experienced lot of bad results with defeats in their previous home matches and today Manchester City will be the team that makes Crystal Palace lose in their home match.
Manchester City is guaranteed to have full points so they can still catch up on points from Arsenal and Liverpool, the difference is not too far and there is chance for Manchester City to achieve it.

In Liverpool away match against Manchester United, it is actually clear that Liverpool remains the favorite but it does not rule out the possibility that Manchester United will be able to cause surprise.
It just that looking at how Manchester United have competed in the last few matches shows that they will still have difficulty against Liverpool even though it is home match, previously they lost to Chelsea because of mistakes they made.
This is an interesting match because it is difficult to determine or predict from the start before being able to see how the match starts.

Manchester United lost to Chelsea because of defensive errors, not the tactics used by Erik Ten Hag.

I think this is a problem that Man United must address immediately. In the previous match when Man United played against Brentford, they also make the same mistakes. Victory was in sight, but they were careless and gave Brentford the opportunity to equalize. And this happened again when they played against Chelsea. I think Man United really have problems with their composure. I think Ten Hag also made a mistake, playing Rashford and McTominay was very ineffective, it even made Man United lose their rhythm.

Man United were extremely lucky to have earned a point against Brantford.
Brantford were a much better team that day, they had 31 shots on goal against United's 11. They were a bit out of luck there though, with 2 shots hitting the cross-bar and one hitting the post. It should've been at least 3-1 win for Brentford.
That game exposed all types of United's weaknesses, especially lack of attacking power. I think that both, players and fans accepted that this season is a wasted one for United. I don't expect United's owners to give Ten Hag another chance next season. He's almost certainly on his way out unless a miracle happens and he manages to win all the remaining games.

As for the missed opportunities for Manchester United, this only concerns their poor defensive performance. The attack periodically shows a very good game, but it is worth almost nothing when the team is unable to maintain a winning result. I understand that there are circumstances that are difficult to influence when the referee gives a penalty at the end of the match, but after that, to concede again is simply a lack of proper experience among the players.

[Sexylizzy2813]

This part of the season is just that period when we see the bigger boys struggle to beat the smaller clubs and this is their (smaller clubs) period of being stronger than they were in the first half of the season.
Crystal Palace will be hosting Man City in today's early kick off, I believe that in as much as Palace are not in a good form I think they can get something out of this encounter but mind you that the Citizens are having this hunger for goals and getting their spot at the top of the table because they know they're running out of time with Liverpool sitting at the top followed by Arsenal at 2nd position.
In this game I feel it might end in a draw or City have to lose this game to the host, Palace might be deadly just to cover up for their last game that they lost shamefully, I'd say is a 2-1 win for Palace if they're lucky enough.

What I thought about Man United in that match was that they were careless in the last minutes. They lowered their rhythm and created several gaps in the defense. And talking about Man United's defense line, we can understand that since the start of the season they have had problems with this. It's just that sometimes their defense line gets stronger and sometimes it weakens again. This is nothing new at Man United and Ten hag has not been able to overcome this problem since the start of this season. Man United sometimes they make good plays at the start of the match and start to let their guard down when they think they are going to win. And maybe this is a matter of their mentality or maybe it is a matter of calmness as you said. The point is that Man United always seems unprepared for pressure. In fact, they also played very badly in the UCL, which is proof that their mentality does not seem ready for greater pressure.

I don't know what to say when I see the final result of this match both teams play aggressively and make comeback with each other until finally Chelsea was the luckiest for scoring 2 goals in the last minutes obviously no one thinks that Chelsea will do it so we can call it luck. This defeat certainly hinders Manchester United to hunt for the 5th place and now Manchester United 9 points behind Tottenham. Both teams have played as much as possible but weaknesses in the defense are inevitable also luck is in favor of one of them, this is one of the most interesting matches in the Premier League this season.

 I like that you used the word "if" which is a really strong word in this context because like you pointed out earlier, City are hungry for goals and would be looking to do to another club that which they did to Aston Villa and you'd agree with me that in terms of strength, Unai Emery's Aston are tougher than Crystal but they still got that thrashing and you think Crystal Palace will survive it? Home or away, it makes no difference. The only thing that might occur is that we might see Palace making it difficult for City to score but that won't mean they won't. Haaland hasn't scored in three games now if I'm not mistaken and will be itching to do so, and coupled with the fact that they drew their last match, Pep will be looking to take his pound of flesh, don't you think?

I haven't seen any statistics regarding this, so I'm not sure if that's actually true that smaller clubs tend to perform better towards the end of the season, but this makes some sense.
The logic would be that at the beginning of the season, smaller clubs would play much more carefully and defensively, being primarily focused on not losing games. But at the end of the season, if such teams are placed safely above the relegation zone, they can allow themselves to play more relaxed football, have more fun out of it, and take more risks by playing more offensively, which can often pay out with surprise wins over bigger clubs.
Having a lot at stake, be it fighting for the league title or to avoid relegation could be very motivating, but could also be very stressful and harm team's performance.

I see this as Ten Hag mistake in making substitutions which made the team's performance even worse after he made several changes.
In the last few matches, even since the start of the season, the Manchester United team has not shown consistent performance even in one full match, their game seems to lack the rhythm and tactics of a coach who is capable of executing it well.

The defeat against Chelsea was very painful for Manchester United and it is also very likely that it will further worsen their performance in the future due to the team's mentality and self-confidence.
