Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[SmartCharpa]

And, hopefully, we'll see some new names appear in the starting lineup of Manchester United. I think it would be great to have Zirkzee in the starting lineup; however, I'm not sure if he can perform. I've read he is being managed for fitness, and also, with Hojlund out for six weeks, we go into the game without a striker. And my prediction is it could be a sloppy 1-0 or 1-1.

And again, I'd prefer to start Garnacho over Rashford in the game against Fulham on the LW. It's because Rashford was so poor in the pre-season games. But, Rashford could also be an alternative striker because we don't have any atm.

I expect to see new faces in Manchester United starting lineup today because Hojlund and Yoro were injured during the pre-season game, Ten Hag may choose to put De Ligt in defensive midfield to improve their performance, I don't think Zirkzee will make his Manchester United debut against Fulham since Ten Hags has said that he is close, so I believe Zirkzee will be unavailable in their Premier League opening game. However, I think Manchester United will play today's game without a striker because Rashford performed poorly in the pre-season games, they may use him as a striker because he cannot start when Garnacho is available.

And, if Ten Hag cannot start Rashford as a striker against Fulham, then he should use the method he used against Manchester City in the Community Shield, with Bruno as the striker. I believe this will work because Fulham is not as strong as Manchester City.

In the early season matches it is quite difficult to make predictions because we have not seen the real strength of the team and in my opinion what is seen in friendly matches cannot be used as a reference.

Man United may be slightly favored because they will play at home but I think Fulham also cannot be underestimated and as I said earlier that in the early season matches we cannot measure the strength of the teams so it is also possible for surprises to occur especially now that many of the Man United squad are injured.

Because this is the opening match everyone wants Man United to control the game and successfully bring home 3 points. On paper Man United should have been able to win the match easily, but remember this is a different Man United and in the hands of coach Ten Hag so all expectations attached to Man United are no longer valid. As a result I can still favor Fulham, because Man United losing to a small team is no longer a surprise. This club still needs to improve in terms of player recruitment and management.

[hyudien]

To be honest, at this time I don't dare to hope that Manchester United will be able to surprise us next season, although currently they have tried to improve the weaknesses that existed last season, but we also cannot deny that last season if techniques and strategies game were implemented by ten hag is very bad, in fact they often lose points when the match is almost over because the bad game scheme implemented by ten hag for securing victory actually become blunders, in fact the quality of players recruited by ten hag this season is no better than last season and for ten hag Still coaching Manchester United, of course there is no hope for us to see them win the Premier League because Ten Hag coaching has been so bad so far.
However, that's just my view and maybe I'm wrong with my opinion, because apart from that opinion, I actually hope that Manchester United can return to being a strong team in the English league like their  glory era previously.

It lies in the strategy implemented so that we still have the same doubts. Even Erik Ten Hag has not been able to make players play at their best performance. I don't know for sure how his relationship with the players is, but what I see is that his relationship with the players is not very good so that might be an obstacle to the team's development. Because after all a team must have a harmonious relationship, not only between players but between players and coaches must also have a good relationship.
I am not without reason saying that his relationship with the players is not very good, from the way he blames the players after the match is over it could be a sign that he just wants to be respected and when something bad happens to the team he doesn't want to be blamed and prefers to blame the players. That is one of the reasons why I said his relationship with the players is not good.

This is a new season everything will be different, we can't remember what happened last season and we can see some changes that have occurred in the Manchester United squad to face the next season, it is indeed possible to make this team much better.
I think Fulham is not a strong opponent for Erik Ten Hag's troops, especially since they will play at home, I am quite optimistic that Manchester United can win this match.
I bet -1 for Manchester United to win the match with odds @1.99 I am quite sure about that.

Full of breath to watch the opening game for the 2024/2025 English Premier League season. Manchester United versus Fulham in the first kickoff of the 2024/2025 EPL season. We expects more from this game and its definitely base on the new changes in style and also from these coaches end. We know how tough it's been for Erik Ten Hag, but he won't relent and have assured the fans that the new signings will be made available and ready for tomorrow game.

Manchester United have brought in some solid defenders in the transfer market this season. They managed to get Leny Yoro and De Ligt who will contribute greatly to their defense. United had a lot of problems in the defense sector last season. Unfortunately Leni Yoro is injured and will be out for 3 months. This is a big loss for Ten Hag because one of his key players is injured even before the league starts.

Due to his weight he is less susceptible to defenders attacks, he is more stable, but even then I think his weight is more or less acceptable, he has a very strong body and that is enough. As for age I think Napoli have nothing further than two or three years in their plans for both players, so Lukaku could be good for that period, why not? Perhaps it is in their line-up that he would fit in perfectly

I think Napoli and Conte want Lukaku to play with Napoli for two or three seasons. Lukaku is now 31 years old. This is not the ideal age for a footballer, especially for a striker. But Conte seems to really want Lukaku because they were successful at Inter Milan. It seems that Conte wants to be aggressive and improve Napoli's performance in the next one or two seasons.

And, if Ten Hag cannot start Rashford as a striker against Fulham, then he should use the method he used against Manchester City in the Community Shield, with Bruno as the striker. I believe this will work because Fulham is not as strong as Manchester City.

De Ligt may not be ready to play for Manchester United yet, but ten Hag definitely needs players who can strengthen their defence. As for Rashford, I think he will play because at the moment there are not many forwards to choose from, and it is important that this epidemic of injuries stops. Fulham are very tough opponents and can play well in defence, but I think they are more dangerous at home and in the away game I hope they do not take points from Manchester United.

For the players that Manchester United already has, they are actually quite good and capable, but they only need the best ideas or tactics from their own coach so Ten Hag should be able to think about that now. Because Fulham is an opponent that Manchester United should be able to beat even though it is not easy because Fulham is also a team that has strength in the Premier League. So I just think that their match could be quite fierce in order to get three points at the start of this season.

Ciao Lannakosa,

I agree with you about ten Hag needing players to strengthen the defence for Manchester United. I hope Rashford will be able to play soon and help the team, we really need him. I'm not a big fan of Fulham, especially when they play against Manchester United, so I hope we can get all three points in the away game. So the red fury can be able to manage them

[Mr.right85]

I noticed something about Manchester City. They usually give their players extended breaks before the start of the season.

Maybe they are actually not extended breaks in the real sense of it. It's just that most of them apart from playing for Manchester City all represent and play internal parts in their national team setup.

And besides, the guys who are behind them in the pecking order can also do a good job and at least deliver good performances and results which allows them not put too much pressure on the "Big Boys"

Pep just confirmed that Rodri has not trained. John Stones, Walker and Foden have had just 3 training sessions.
Maybe that's why they usually start slow and then explode in the second half of the season.

They’ll be visiting Stamford Bridge on Sunday and Chelsea have a real chance to take something from the game if Rodri isn't playing.

[rendravolt]

There is a surprising fact that before the recruitment of Leny Yoro who went through a medical scan, he actually had a metatarsal problem.

What is a metatarsal? the long bone in the foot, which connects the ankle to the toes.

I think if there was a medical record like that, Manchester United should have postponed his recruitment and tried another defender alternative rather than regretting what happened to Leny Yoro who is currently injured. But Manchester United has indeed trusted him fully, but sometimes this is very risky if not handled properly. We know that Manchester United's medical staff is quite bad where many players are injured and have difficulty recovering. For example, Mount and Lisandro always experience recurring symptoms.

I don't dare say that Man United will perform impressively in their first match in the Premier League but, one thing I see is that Man United is taking its progress quite seriously so far, and I think that can be a good foundation for them to move forward. The match against Fulham is quite crucial, not only as a means of proof of all the changes that Man United has made but, it will also have a big impact on the morale of the Man United players.

If Manchester United can not perform impressively while playing with Fulham, then this season will also still not be good for the club. Fulham is good in scoring so Manchester United need to impress us today by scoring. And we expect Manchester United to also win because it is a home match.

it is clear leny yoro is a failed recruit for manchester united, i understand this player is still young and has good potential, but it will be very detrimental to the club with the injury he is currently experiencing, i found some sources saying leny yoro will return to the field in november, that is a long time, honestly i am not sure his performance will be as good as before, seeing what he is experiencing now it can affect performance.

injury is a specter that can destroy a footballer's career, there have been many cases that have occurred, and if as you say is true, the medical staff at manchetser united is currently bad, there should be improvements from man united management for serious problems like this.

It's too early to to tip Man Utd for a win against Fulham based on the pedigree of the club, this is the first game for both club and a newly rejuvenated Fulham with some new  decent signings like Smith Rowe etc I am predicting a draw match because its a new season and a new team thus both clubs would play with caution and premier league is becoming more competitive with no more minnows unlike before if we should rate Man Utd with their performances in few seasons ago up till last season thus I don't expect a win against Fulham today thus the best bet should be a draw though the odds favours Man Utd based on home support at Old Trafford but to me it's today match that would be to rate Man Utd

Arsenal is getting ready for war. They are just completing their squad and they keep hiring players Artetaa needs and since we know this coach I think they will have a strong team in the next season.
Now they are close to hiring Mikel Merino the player of Real Sociedad. Arsenal is ready to pay 35 million euros for this player.
according to some sources, they will sign the contract in less than 48 hours.

[naira]

However, the match went to penalties which turned into one of the toughest games of the season and Manchester United missed more penalties. And in the end Manchester United were defeated by the team where the spectators were most nervous, as the gallery was excited all the time which team would win.

The worst penalty shootout in Manchester United history where the Manchester United goalkeeper tried to play Haaland mentality which had no effect at all. Onana actions were also criticized because of his intimidating attitude. It's funny Manchester United with their current squad which is known to have no vision and mission to play. Erik Ten Hag is still recruiting players from Ajax for the umpteenth time, since the beginning Erik Ten Hag's concept has never changed and insists on completing his 11 players from Ajax graduates, sooner or later it will definitely happen.

Fulham did managed to stay above from the relegation zone quite comfortably last season but most of the points they earned was mainly from home games and they do not have a very desirable away record. I think Manchester United should be able to claim a victory against Fulham in front of their home fans today in their opening match for this new English Premier League season.

The opening match is usually very important to win because it will give the team confidence in starting the season. So I think this match will be won by Man United, especially as we know this match will be played in front of their own supporters, of course this will be the reason why Man United is favored to win in the first match.

Moreover, this season Man United has brought in several new players. Especially in the defense line such as Leny Yoro, Matthijs de Ligt, and Noussair Mazraoui, as well as striker Joshua Zirkzee. Although Yoro was not played because he was still injured after pre-season, it will not make it difficult for Man United in this first match. Man United this season will be better than next season, indeed in pre-season they got mixed results but when facing official matches like against Man City a few days ago they showed a significant increase in performance even though they finally lost on penalties. But what I want to say is that they managed to hold Man City to a draw in normal time, that is good progress.

I think Manchester United should be able to claim a victory against Fulham in front of their home fans today in their opening match for this new English Premier League season.

It could be Fulham as an underdog team to surprise tonight, but I feel sure they will not be able to face Manchester United, this team has made changes in the Erik Ten Hag Era now even though several players have suffered injuries, the Red Devils can still anticipate to fight Fulham.

The Manchester United odds are still good so it's probably worth a bet on singles, but I'm going for a parlay bet because I've seen some easy matches to predict, (in my own estimation). It could be Manchester United winning easily they will not make any more blunders.

If we refer to the odds of this match, Manchester United is far superior to Fulham. so clearly, United has a big chance to get three points over their opponent. so, the first home match for United of course they will not waste. if I refer to the prediction of United's line-up it seems that Ten Hag will rotate some of his players because their striker is injured, instead Zirkzee will be the main choice as a center forward. I also see that Rashford will not be played as a starter, but this is just a prediction, it does not necessarily determine the truth. as usual, Ten Hag seems to be using the system he always applies. in the defense line, their two newcomers are predicted to immediately become starters. Casemiro and Kobbie are Ten Hag's mainstay pivots, the rest are Bruno and Garnacho. let's see, whether United will appear epic in their first match. moreover, this match was held in front of the Red Devil public.

[bastisisca]

I am actually not impressed by the stat I am shown here. Despite that Neto is just 24, but this stat is not as outstanding as the hype is. I am not surprised because the England is so good at hyping and especially Chelsea fans.
Todd seems to believe in business and quantity, which is the reason Chelsea might also not succeed this season. Chelsea need a manager who thinks about results more than business and this is the only way Chelsea will grow.

Doesn't the fact that at 24 years old you play like a veteran without being afraid impress you? Yes to me. I would like to have 100 of these young players who play without fear in very tough competitions, they would be a significant resource for a team, just by renting them I could live on them for centuries of income.
