Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

I also think that City did not have the best season last year and this is what gave Arsenal the opportunity to follow City until the very last round. And although in the last season it seemed that Arsenal became a more stable team, I am not in a hurry to say that Arteta will completely get rid of this problem, and therefore I do not think that Arsenal can become the main competitor for City this season, at least until the first decline.

Wasn’t their best season but had a very good season and to i’d say they have a wonderful season ahead of Arsenal  because they were even more dangerous in the Champions League than Arsenal. Arsenal was just more competitive than ever and last season they showed that if Manchester City should relent for a bit they will snatch the trophy from them.

I don’t why Arteta can see that they need a better striker a clinical one at that to be able to compete with Manchester City but i don’t think he is seeing it and Arsenal is not in talks with any big striker.

The most important thing is that Arsenal still managed to have a good start this season and of course, with that good start it could be a sign that Arsenal will still be a team that is in the fight for trophies this season. But I wonder, why do you say Arsenal will not be a competitor for Manchester City this season, is there a specific reason why you say something like that? Because after all,in previous seasons, the reality is that when Arsenal had a good start, then Arsenal would also be a strong competitor at the top of the standings.

Because for me, Arsenal under Arteta's coaching really managed to have good results even though it is true that getting trophies is not easy at all. But,  if they can still be consistent in being a team in the fight for titles every season, then that will also give them a good chance of getting trophies later.

The news of Chiesa joining Liverpool has been clearly reported and I also saw earlier that he had started leaving Italy to undergo a medical test in England. With Chiesa's arrival, Liverpool's attacking line-up has increased to 6 people and I'm curious who Arne Slot will prioritize to fill the front three.

Of course, there is Mohammed Salah on the right winger and sometimes for the left winger and striker he can always change it. Moreover, we haven't seen Nunez's debut so far and this has bothered me whether he will be dropped from the starting line-up this season? What is clear is that we know how Nunez always finds it difficult to score goals even though his percentage is very high. Maybe this is also the basis for Arne Slot not playing him from the start of the season considering that Liverpool really wants full points in each match in order to excel over other teams.

Well, Chiesa's arrival will create more regular variations where he can play as a winger or striker and the combination between players can provide a more promising goal process.

While some teams in the Premier League like Arsenal and Liverpool tried to get improve by hiring more players and they spent too much money and Manchester United was not losing these days, so they hired Manuel Ugarte the player of PSG.
They made Manuel Ugarte accept to join this team and play for them a few weeks ago but Manuel Ugarte was under contract with PSG and PSG didn't agree to let him leave and finally Macnshter United could hire Manuel Ugarte for 50 million euros.

Manchester United added their players in a better defensive midfield position. In my opinion, the statistics he can show at Paris Saint Germain are not that special, but he can indeed be a mainstay in midfield. Manchester United saw that there was still something lacking in their midfield, so by recruiting Manuel Ugarte it could make their midfield even better.
Not to underestimate, but lately I see every time a player joins Manchester United, their performance has actually declined, no matter how good they were in their previous team, they will definitely experience that when they are at Manchester United. But I hope that will not happen to Manuel Ugarte and he can contribute to Manchester United's game.

Manchester City is a classic contender for the title and only mistakes from the other teams that allow it to stay the first. Several times Manchester City was running behind other teams like Arsenal but at the end they jump in the first place and win the title.
Liverpool for example was annoying Manchester City but they dropped behind. Chelsea and Manchester United are no longer close competitors. Arsenal used to be the direct rival of Manchester City these years but still couldn't pass them.

This is a great success for them and the main reason for their success is their hard work and play together.  Because whenever a team wins a match, it is due to hard work.  Because no team will let another team win the match for no reason.  Manchester is getting this success because of their hard work otherwise a team like Chelsea will also draw the match.  It has been a very interest match for both the teams and both have worked hard and luck has not gone with anyone.If a team had been faster, the match could have gone in its favor but the efforts of both were good but both were unable to win the match.

We have the same thought. Since Arsenal failure in the previous 2 seasons I have always said that Arsenal failure to win the EPL title was due to Arteta failure to maintain team consistency. This is indeed the biggest problem but Arteta still repeated this problem last season which should have been better because Man City last season had a tighter schedule to chase the UCL title. I had thought that maybe one way Arteta could deliver the EPL title was just by not focusing too much on chasing the UCL. And focus on rotating players in every match to maintain the players' physical and mentality so that they can maintain their performance so as not to lose points in every match.

I also think that City did not have the best season last year and this is what gave Arsenal the opportunity to follow City until the very last round. And although in the last season it seemed that Arsenal became a more stable team, I am not in a hurry to say that Arteta will completely get rid of this problem, and therefore I do not think that Arsenal can become the main competitor for City this season, at least until the first decline.

I won't agree with you for saying Manchester City didn't have a good season and that was the reason why arsenal was able to come closer to Manchester City. Last season arsenal was very  tough in their performance that Manchester City was not even able to defeat arsenal in premier league games.

I think the reason why Manchester City was unable to get to the Champions league final was because they had difficult season in premier league which they needed to put more energy and focus in the Premier league.  If not fir some mistakes arsenal  would have won the league last season, I guess last season was arsenal best season for a very longtime because of the good performance but it was so sad that they couldn't get the tittle of the league.

Arsenal are not just a major contender in EPL but arsenal are the only teams so far in the premier League to have given Manchester City such a fierce competition for two consecutive seasons, and I think they can do better if only they can stay focus and take their chances. I expect Mikel Arteta to work more on his players mental ability than their physical abilities because if you check what led to the loss of their chances of winning the title for the past two season, you will realize that they started loosing important matches to team they had earlier beaten in the first round as a result of psychological issues which could have been better taken care of by proffessionals but was neglected by the management and the team had to pay for this by loosing the title thereafter.

Not looking forward to seeing Liverpool go to Old Trafford on Sunday. It’s a great game for a neutral fan to watch but as a Liverpool fan I hate this game. It doesn’t matter how badly Man Utd are doing they always raise their level when we go to Old Trafford. I hate playing them, the crowd are loud, the players are extra aggressive. If we get out of there with a win it’d be an amazing start to the Slot era.

Elsewhere Arsenal and Man City have started well as expected. They play Brighton and West Ham respectively. Looking forward to Saturday's fixtures but dreading the trip to Old Trafford

Liverpool kicked off the Arne Slot era very well with back to back wins against newly promoted side Ipswich and the bees Brentford United who also lost last weekend. Manchester United did poorly last season but we all saw how they dealt with Liverpool during the FA Cup Semi finals and also holding Liverpool down to a fulltime draw last season. Manchester United might have lost to Brighton last weekend but this game would be obviously world war 3. Getting three points against Manchester United who wants to Improve and impress the fans would be difficult, this is not the friendly games and pre-season on GOD. I don't even know what personal records Erik Ten Hag has with Arne Slot but we'll see about that. Mo Salah has been one player scoring Manchester United whenever he faced them, let's see if he'll do the same this season.
Gunners could easily get things done with Brighton, they have won back to back games but that don't mean shit. Arsenal would triumph though I know how tough Brighton use be for Arsenal with Graham Potter in charge.

West Ham United improved their defenders. Getting pass two goals against the hammers would be difficult.

The Red Devils somehow awaken the Devils inside of them when they get to play the Anfield boys. For both of the teams, it's a tough fixture. Filled with action, filled with emotions. As a Liverpool fan, I am very excited for the matchup. Always fun to play against United, feel the thrill, and feel the exciting energy.

Manchester United has had a slow start to the season so far. They did play well in the first match, but playing Bruno at the 9, and playing Mount behind Bruno as the 10 is one of the many faults Ten Hag has made so far. They probably wouldn't have lost the match if it wasn't for the horrible defensive mistake from the CBs. But, they have to up their game to face the Reds now.

Liverpool in their first two games faced arguably weaker sides, but the gameplan was thorough. Arne Slot is here and he knows his stuff. He is leaving no prisoners, taking it all in, and fielding the best eleven every game. Good thing is most of them are in good form, too. So I expect a good match from Liverpool for sure. It would be exciting to see how Man United show up.

Bournemouth vs Newcastle

Bournemouth XI: Neto; Araujo, Zabarnyi, Senesi, Kerkez; Christie, Cook; Semenyo, Tavernier, Kluivert; Evanilson.

Newcastle XI: Pope; Krafth, Kelly, Burn, Livramento; Guimarães, Longstaff, Joelinton; Murphy, Isak, Gordon.

Newcastle are currently in a good shape to play against Bournemouth despite they are facing defeat against Bournemouth, Bournemouth have already secured one points and Newcastle had three points in their first match, let see if Newcastle will finally be free against Bournemouth

If you see, both the teams have work hard to equalize the match by score one goal each. If one side had score more goals, the match would have been over. But both of them work hard to stop their opponent goal and keep themselves. I would congratulate both teams equally as both have work very hard to save their team and need to work harder for either team to advance. Bournemouth tried hard to score but Newcastle were also save hard.The player of Newcastle have also tried hard but the players of the other team also came to open up so they did not let their hard work go to waste so the competition between the two sides was equal.

I expected Newcastle to win but the team failed to win. But the performance of the Bournemouth players really surprised me. I did not expect to see such a good performance from this team. In the first match Bournemouth team drew the match against Nottingham Forest. And they managed to get 1 point in their home match against Newcastle.

Newcastle's owner is very rich. Still I don't know why they are not taking necessary steps to strengthen the squad. I thought the Newcastle team would be as strong as Manchester City. Newcastle performed brilliantly in the 2022–23 season. and qualified for the Champions League. However, the Newcastle management did not provide large funds for the purchase of players. Newcastle are not doing very well this season. I think we will see this team at 8/9 position in the points table.

Bournemouth football team played very well in this match and they did first goal at a right tine when team needed that. After that no goal for a long time and at the 77 minutes of the match we saw goal from Newcastle team. Newcastle team could not win this match but in this match ,Newcastle  was favorite but they have to improve their performance and they are playing very bad .  They should win this match one sided but we saw equal side match and Bournemouth team defended very well . But overall performance of Newcastle team was better as comparison to Newcastle team because their passes very more and efficient and their shots were on target.

Manchester City were just playing a nice game last season and that gave them the opportunity to make it to that position they are. I don’t think there’s any reason why you can fault them to be underperforming and caused Arsenal to be a major competitor with them. They were both good but it’s just that Arsenal didn’t use most of their opportunities well and it caused them to lose a lot of games that would have made them be the winners at the end of the season. What happened last season was why happened even in the season before that, so I feel they should be more serious and competent enough for the league title this season. A expect a tough season between this two for the league title but only the best amongst them will lift the trophy at the end of the season.

Arteta think the team scoring opportunity is open to all the attacking players not attaching the role to a single striker as we can see any of his players like Trosaard, Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli, Gabriel Jesus, Havertz, Partey and Rice can score and recall Arsenal scored 91 goals last season in premier league without a striker because all their players can score at any given opportunity, I believe s the mentally of Arteta is not to shift the role of scoring role to a No.9 striker thus it has been working for the team with the latest signing of Merino their midfield is formidable for now there is no any bid for a striker that means Arteta is contented and satisfied with the team attackers

[marii awan]

If there is a difference between these two teams Manchester United and Liverpool then Liverpool should be ahead. There is a compromise in Liverpool's performance that we don't see with Manchester United. Manchester United winning one match by a big margin and losing several matches is never a good game. Last season Manchester United played Champions League this season they will play Europa League due to poor performance in the local league their place is in Europa League. With Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool competing in the Premier League this season, we can't really consider Manchester United in the best position there.

Liverpool headcoach, Arne Slot have to work hard enough because he's in the English Premier League and have become one of the solid style to create opportunities for the team. He's the solidable replacement for Jurgen Klopp and he knows how to face elite and average clubs. Meanwhile Manchester united have more time to improve after losing in a style against Brighton previous weekend. The Red devils have to bounced back on their feet because winning and accumulating three points should be their desperate priorities. Erik Ten Hag have to put in the work and comprehend the complex arrangement of these new players.

Arne Slot is doing good for team Liverpool and also shows a good tough competition for other top teams. The way they played their 1st two games they showed that they were good in their every way.

During season is not always very easy as we think all the clubs are usually under pressure and a lot of work is required of them to make sure the are maintaining position, we have to learn to adapt to what ever they are playing at the moment, and I don't even see the reason why bitcoin should be a problem to you because even if we struggled we still bagged the premier league, this statement should be for other clubs, and arsenal is the one struggling, even with both Manchester United and Chelsea because I feel my club should be appreciated and not casting that we were struggling last season. And just watch out what we happen this season we are still winning the premier league. Football trying to solve one problem will lead to another so managing a club is not easy at all, so let's start saying good things about my club, their is a lot adjustment to make when the match is ongoing, Manchester City is the best.

Manuel ugarte actually wanted to go to Manchester United going by the News I saw in a media earlier today then Manchester United as a team did wanted him too so it was just PSG who at a point would have halted the transfer but then now according to Fabrizio it's a fine deal and ugarte will be going to Manchester United so he joins in as part of the team. I don't want to say but since Manchester United didn't really spend on the transfer I don't know how well it's going to affect their productivity this season but we could hope for the best even if they have had an inconsistent start already.

Leicester again failed to get their first win of the season after having to bow to the host Fulham with a score of 2-1 and certainly this is not the result desired by Jamie Vardy and his colleagues. Previously Leicester had been tense when playing against Spurs and I thought the draw would be able to highlight their purpose of being here again. But it seems that it has not been realized and I am still waiting for a positive result from them.

On the other hand, West Ham who had fallen against Aston Villa in the first week, has managed to avenge their defeat in the match against Crystal Palace and the result was 2-0 for the Hammers squad. This is a good start for West Ham at the start of the season considering the competition is still ongoing between teams to continue to improve their position in the standings. However, there is doubt after this victory, West Ham must also play a match against Manchester City and it is certain that they will lose points again later.

[Webetcoins]

Haaland was controlled better by opponents in Premier League and it was not only because of his injuries last season. With De Bruyne, he will have less contributions for Manchester City with time when he gets older and his body will be affected negatively. De Bruyne is helpful for Manchester City in some matches and if he is used properly but he won't be able to play all matches and fulfill each match like when he was younger some years ago.

If Manchester City rely on contributions from Haaland and De Bruyne, they will have big troubles this season and in future. If they come to that day, Pep Guardiola will make his clever decision to leave Manchester City and find a new challenge, new chapter for his coach career.

This season is going to be very interesting as we are having Haaland at his best as he is already leading the scorers list by 4 goals even we have only 2 games, but things could be more exciting as we have few other good players which are looking for their best in this season even Haaland is already having tag of goal machine with good number of goals for him but now in this season we will have few players those are ready to challenge him.

Cole Palmer is also good player and in Chelsea new setup he is going to have important role with his best for the Chelsea De Bruyne is also ready for the new challenge after having injuries in last season and this could be his last season at the Etihad Stadium as he is not extending his contract, and we have reports he is going to have next journey in Saudi League this current season is going to be important for the many players as they want to have their memorable time.

There were at least 9 teams that lost in the second week, including Leicester as one of them. Leicester still haven't proven that they are ready to compete this season when they only got 1 point in their first 2 matches. They are not as strong as I thought this season, but there is a possibility of them improving in the coming weeks.

It is also feared that Leicester will lose points in the third week when they play against Aston Villa. Even though Aston Villa also lost in the second week, based on the depth and quality of the squad they have, I believe that Leicester will have a very difficult time getting points. Aston Villa are likely favorites to win at the King Power Stadium, but underestimating Leicester completely likely be a mistake.

Is it too early to confidently say that Manchester City are going to win the league this season? The league just got started, and we are still yet to see how teams are going to go far in the league. However, if we are to predict based on the team we are supporting, I will also say Arsenal are going to win because that is my favourite club.

Furthermore, aside from based on selecting favourite club to win Arsenal have been in the race for a long time now; even last season it was just a little mistake that made us lose the Premier League, so this season I’m expecting something different from them. I will also say Arsenal are going to do everything they can to win the league this season.

The chemistry between Liverpool's lines has been well established, we see the 2 matches they played, everything went well without any obstacles, as if they said "we are ready to be champions this season" and we have to admit that. Arne Slot continues the history created by Klopp with solid team improvements so far from the two matches they have played they are still consistent, very different from their rivals, namely Man United, there has been no change at all with their new players, last season and this season are the same, let's just see this week's match that will bring them both together, I'm sure Liverpool can win this match even though they have to play at Old Trafford

Situation is very good for the Liverpool as they are going ahead with new era after end of Jürgen Klopp time things are looking positive and their performance is also impressive they are having two games with score 4 goals and concede nothing mean they are having good chance of staying into top ranks for the long time with things could be challenging in coming game against Manchester Untied on 1st September at the Old Trafford.

Most of the soccer community having concerns about Arne Slot, but his start is impressive and things are going as they needed which is good for the stakeholders we have only two clubs with no goal against them Arsenal and Liverpool both are having good time, and we will be having them into good performance in this season with Manchester City is surely going to have challenge because they are having no performance as we have them in last season.
