Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[KTChampions]

What do you think about the match between Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest? when everyone thought that Liverpool would win easily because playing at home and with a better squad but in fact Liverpool lost the points, I'm sure many gamblers lost in this match including me. Previously Manchester United was a team that was doubted to win but instead they won by 3 goals, it is clear that many matches are not as expected and messed up my parlay bet even though I only choose low odds.~

I was planning to make easy money (multi bet on City, Liverpool and maybe Bayern/Bayer) but in my local time the games started at 5pm and I was not ready for such an early start. Thank God I didn't have time to place a bet and it saved me money. I didn't see Liverpool's game, judging by the reports everything was sad and Nottingham could have won even 2-0 if they were a little luckier in the second half. I can definitely say that I expected Liverpool to start losing points but definitely not in this game.
As for United, they have received a lot of hate (and rightfully so - just look at their results in the Premier League over the last 15 games lol), but they are not so weak that they cannot beat the underdogs. Maybe now, paradoxically, United are undervalued by bookmakers.

I am very sure that many gamblers lost this time. Really, the match result was very disappointing. Liverpool wasted too many chances, even this was like a very tight match, many yellow cards were given.

See, what's wrong with their performance?
what a miserable defeat


It starts from losing duels, few rotation, and also poor decision. the players and the coach got big criticism this time.
The problem is, Nottm Forest is not a strong team, they were expected to get full 3 points here, but failed miserably.

I can't remember who said this to me here but i can remember it was on this same thread, this dude told me that in every week in the premier League there is always a team that will surprise us with their disappointing result and I guess he was very right with that statement because Liverpool just proved him right. I'm not a fan but I would have love them to make their 3 points even though I know that Liverpool usually get messed up at the end of the season I still wanted to see them win this assumed weak club.

With Liverpool defeat to Nottingham Forest, Manchester City are now the only team that has managed to record a perfect point. I'm pretty sure many bettors suffered losses due to the Reds defeat, but regardless of the course of the match, sometimes luck doesn't always go according to predictions. Manchester City certainly benefited greatly in this case, we realize that a narrow point difference in the Premier League can have a big impact on a team's journey, which can result in losing or winning trophies. However, it is still too early to say that Liverpool are unable to compete with Manchester City in the fight for the top of the standings, because the season has only been going on for 4 weeks, there are still many matches left that could turn things upside down. In my opinion, the main competitor for the defending champions this season is Arsenal, but Liverpool, Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham also have the potential to interfere. Regarding the big win for Ten Hag's squad, they deservedly got an additional 3 points, because Southampton is not a tough opponent. It looks like the Arsenal versus Tottenham match tomorrow will provide another advantage for Pep Guardiola.

Today's game is essentially  enough prove to the fact that gamble  is a game of luck. Its unbelievable  that Liverpool would lose  to Nottingham Forrest considering  there previous  games including that with the red devils. Indeed many bettors  lost due to outcome of Liverpool's  game, I also lost but its a good thing you invest with what you can afford to lose because  even small odds can sometimes be the reason you'll  loss your bet. Brighton  also play nill with ipswich which is also unbelievable but this is football , anything  can happen, even in the last second the game could  be changed with a single did. However  Liverpool  broke their unbeaten so early  but I hope this doesn't  mean they're  beginning  to loss their form now.

Form is exceptional for Liverpool, they've to dive into winning matches if they're desperate to compete with Manchester City for the EPL title. Losing points against mediocre clubs won't help. Wait a second, you called Nottingham Forest thrilling winning against the Reds at Anfield luck? This is EPL and it creates room for shocking games outcomes. Liverpool was fully prepared for their oppositions but the game inversely changed when Nottingham Forest exhibited great chances and they barely missed them compared to Liverpool that having deadlock on goal was their hurdle. Arne Slot have been handled over his first defeats of the season and this time it comes from an average club, that's fighting extremely hard to grab winning points.

[Publictalk792]

Chelsea are just becoming so much unpredictable, good today and rust tomorrow, I never felt Bournemouth to be that tough opponent to hold Chelsea from scoring not until the last minutes of the game. Chelsea still has more rooms open to players elevating into their highest potentials, with this average/poor performance lately nothing unique can be the outcome, the coach and staffs should see more on how to improve our defence and likely our forward, meanwhile we have no problem with the Midfielders.

Right from date, Nkunku has been the better one compared to Jackson. He always had the starting opportunity to brand himself lately but yet we await to see how success he would become. Personally/preferably Jackson should be played as a winger (RW) because he has shown more of contribution on that position than when he serves as the top striker, his pace serves as an advantage to beat defenders and give assists or even score, Jackson doesn't know how to convert brilliant passes/opportunities into goals and that previously coursed us loosing some important matches and points.

Yes Chelsea performance is unpredictable. They play well one day and badly next. Win against Bournemouth shows how unpredictable they are. Chelsea has good players but their defense and attack need to get better. Midfield is good but team needs to work better together. Nkunku is doing well but Jackson needs to reach his full potential. Playing Jackson on right wing would help him use his speed to beat defenders and create scoring chances. When he plays as striker he struggles to score goals which costs Chelsea important points.

The beginning is not the end and now it has been proven as you have said that the second goal was created for Manchester City which was again successfully executed by Haaland, the current score is still 2-1 with the advantage on Manchester City's side and now time is running out for Brentford, only a few minutes left and there is nothing else I hope that hopefully Manchester City can really maintain this advantage until the last minute by acting more carefully, hopefully they are not careless because of course losing the advantage in the final seconds will be very painful, but on the other hand I believe in Guardiola.

Unfortunately my prediction was wrong because I thought Manchester City would be able to score three goals, but it doesn't matter because Manchester City still leads with two goals. Actually, Manchester City could have scored one more goal, it's just that luck was not on Haaland's side because his shot hit the goalpost. This match really made me uneasy because Brentford really looked like they were making things difficult for Manchester City, also with Manchester City playing uncomfortably as usual because they also looked rushed in their game. But in the end Manchester City was able to maintain their narrow lead until the match ended. Although in the second half Manchester City put a lot of pressure on Brentford, I admit they were quite fierce in their attacks.

~snip~

Yea, it's very true that Manchester city are the favourite in this game against Brentford, especially as they are on their home turf, and a win is very much likely, even and over 2.5 as predicted by you, because if you check their goal scoring record especially at home, it's very much logical to understand why you bet on the outcome of that game like that, but the option of betting on them to first score in the the game I think is actually not ideal, because this is football, anything can happen, Brentford might decide to break on the counter and score first in the match, and if that happens, you have definitely lost your bet, so betting on a team to score first even though they are more stronger is actually not a good option in my own point of view, because this is football and as such, anything can happen.

But if I were to be betting on that game, I will be going with the option of Manchester city to win and over 2.5 or I will go win the option of second half over 1.5, and I believe that those options will definitely be more productive than Manchester city score first which is too risky.

Manchester City managed to win with two goal scored by their mainstay striker Haaland, but unfortunately for the first goal in this match it turned out to be scored first by Brentford thanks to goal from Yoane Wissa and this made my bet fail because the 1st goal option could not be as expected.
You are right that in football anything can happen but keep in mind that this is Manchester City match against team that is not so strong so there is belief that the chances for Manchester City to score the first goal in this match are also very large.
Moreover, Manchester City defense is very strong and no one thought that Brentford would be able to get 1 goal advantage at the start of the first half, but I quite happy with the result even though I had to lose the bet.

For the second half the game was much fiercer and Brentford had fairly strong defense, all of Manchester City attacking efforts in the second half also did not produce results, if in this match you take that option for the second half then it will also be failure.

[Plaguedeath]

Two upsets happened yesterday, Brighton can't beat Ipswich Town and Nottingham Forrest win against Liverpool. Brighton is just unlucky enough, while Liverpool play really bad, all the strikers including Salah have a bad xG stats.

It's interesting that this week mostly goalkeepers become man of the match like Muric, Sels, Sanchez and Onana.

I think Arsenal vs Tottenham will end in draw.

[Gallar]

Today is going to be a very competitive game with Manchester United vs Southampton. It will be more than possible for Manchester United to win this game today, because Manchester United is occupying the middle of the points table. And the Southampton team is at the bottom of the points table, and according to the experience of the players, the Manchester United team is more likely to win this match.

 Betting on Manchester United is definitely more likely to win because Manchester United have a squad full of more experienced players in attack and defense than the opposing team.

This match was quite competitive, but it cannot be denied that Manchester United was superior in every way compared to the Southampton players. The reason is that in that match Manchester United managed to score 3 goals against Southampton and Southampton were unable to score a single goal in that match. Apart from that, even though Manchester United managed to win this match, this was not able to bring Manchester United further up the rankings. The reason is that after this victory Manchester United only ranked 10th in the Premier League with 6 points. So Manchester United needs more wins to continue to climb the rankings in the Premier League. Apart from that, this victory over Southampton cannot be used as a benchmark that Manchester United's performance has improved. Because it takes a fairly balanced opponent to judge how well Manchester United is currently performing.

But even so, Ten Hag and the Manchester United players should celebrate this victory. Because after all, Ten Hag and the Manchester United players achieved this victory with great difficulty. But Ten Hag and the Manchester United players also cannot be satisfied with just winning this match. Because there are still many other matches and also stronger opponents waiting for Manchester United.

[Fiatless]

Aston Villa has successfully to managed their winning streak because today they had just won from Everton with narrow scores 3-2 and playing as a host i can see Aston Villa was very aggressive because they were starting to pressed Everton since the beginning of match and after through an 3 latest matches without scores finally Watkins can make a brace today and this result makes Aston Villa has equal point to Liverpool 9 points

For Everton this is big alert for them because 4 losing streak makes their position currently at the bottom of League table and Everton even still unable to earn points this season and Everton also currently as the team with the poorest defense because until week 4 they had conceded 13 goals and the speculate about Sean Dyche is appears today because he potentially will being an the first manager to be sacked this season because Everton has poor perrormance under him

Giving up a goals advantage shows that Everton is lacking some important qualities. I thought they would have defended those two goals and at least got a draw. But some poor defending and lack of organization caused them to receive two cheap goals. The third goal was a masterclass, and Jhon Durán deserves to be awarded the best goalscorer of the week.

Just like Southampton, Everton have not won a game this season. Sean Dyche shouldn't take all the blame because we need to know how much the club management budgeted for the transfer window and how was it used. The club was the lowest spender in the Premiership this season with just: £28.17m. However, the English coach needs to put more effort because low- financially backed clubs like Wolves, Leicester and Brighton are putting up good performances.

It was shocking to see Liverpool beaten at Anfield by a small team like Nottingham Forest. I am sure this could not have happened in Klopp’s time but it is what it is. Klopp is gone and Arne Slot is here. It’s a hard knock to take for the manager and the team but the best decision now is to learn from their mistakes and make things right in their coming games. Many have blamed their poor performance on the international breaks. In my opinion I think there should be a reschedule of the time tables for this international games to be played before or after the league to avoid situations like this.

I am very sure that many gamblers lost this time. Really, the match result was very disappointing. Liverpool wasted too many chances, even this was like a very tight match, many yellow cards were given.

Challum-Hudson Odoi's only goal was the winner for Nottingham Forest at Liverpool's home ground, the final result of the match This was the Reds' first defeat in the Premier League this season since being coached by Arne Slot. This defeat is a setback in performance experienced by Liverpool after successfully achieving three wins in the last three games.

In fact, Liverpool played very well and managed to dominate the match, but Forest's very solid defense made it difficult for Liverpool players to score goals. This defeat means that Liverpool are now three points behind Manchester City, who have just managed to win four games in a row since the start of the season. Manchester City are increasingly comfortable at the top of the standings because they are still the only team that has managed to collect perfect points.

The first half is over, Man United finally managed to take the lead. If you look at Man United's game in the first half, they managed to score goals from dead ball schemes, and both goals involved De Ligt, so Manchester United could lead 2-0. In the second half I think they will play more relaxed because leading by two goals of course it will be easy for Man United to maintain their lead.

My conclusion in the first half Man United was not very good at trying to score goals with open play, this is a fact. but Southampton in the first half was also not clinical in taking advantage of their opportunities, and this is what distinguishes the two teams Man United is clinical, Southampton is not. But interestingly, Marcus Rashford finally scored again after 189 days without scoring. This is Rashford's first goal for Man United since last March.
It was quickly how the game changed in the first half from Southampton having the highest position in the first 25 minutes to Manchester United taking the lead with 2 goals to nothing before the end of the first half. The first 25 minutes were hell for Dalot since there was more defending in his wings. It was frustrating that he had to commit a penalty. Lucky for the Manchester United team Onana had to make his first Premier League penalty save after 7 penalties he had faced so far.

Just 2 minutes after the first half Manchester United scored their first goal in the game. And this game room for the second goal from Rashford. Funny enough this is his first goal in his last 12 matches for Manchester United. Hopefully, they will win the game because I see a different performance today in how they play.

The observation made here revolves around how Manchester United has continued leading Southampton by 2-0 during the first half of the match, thanks to goals scored from dead ball schemes. Manchester's strength appears to lie in their ability to capitalize on opportunities when they present themselves, even if their general gameplay is not as strong as it could be. Still, that clinical ability sets them apart from Southampton, who has missed several chances.

Marcus Rashford's goal is another notable event, seeing as it is his first in nearly half a year. Dalot, however, appears to be struggling, particularly when it comes to defending in his wings. Nonetheless, Onana managed his first Premier League penalty save, a crucial event that has diversified the match.

In the second half, we can anticipate a more relaxed play from Manchester United due to their lead. This game, however, suggests a different performance, presenting hope that Manchester United might win the match.

[Justbillywitt]

Chelsea were lucky today. Their defense was not very sharp and would have conceded goals if they faced a tougher opponent. Nkuku has proved to be a better goal scorer than Nicolas Jackson. What a finish! Why did Chelsea extend Jackson’s contract again?? Enough talk of Osimhen, Enzo Maresca should start Nkuku ahead of Jackson in the next game. Sancho is the best signing Chelsea has made this summer. Manchester United are probably regretting they sold Sancho to Chelsea.

Anyone comparing Jackson and Nkuku in terms of finishing probably don't know who Nkuku is. It's just so unfortunate that Nkuku is was hardly fit throughout last season. Nkuku is the better player and the best option when it comes to him and Jackson and Enzo Maresca is beginning to realize this. My only concern is that he should not pick up any injury that will rule him out for long this season, if he does remain fit he is definitely going to be scoring important goals for Chelsea this term. There has never been any question mark about how good Sancho is, Manchester United wouldn't have sold Sancho if they had another manager. The bad blood between him and Eric was the reason why Sancho was sold. It's a good thing that Sancho is now in a place where he can enjoy his football and we are going to see how much he will be of help to Chelsea this season.

Liverpool 0-1 Nottingham Forest: Match Review

The defeat to Nottingham Forest certainly surprised us, especially before Liverpool was favored to win an easy victory over Nottingham because they played at Anfield, besides that the quality of the two teams which different and also the positive achievements obtained by Liverpool with consecutive wins before certainly make people think that it is impossible for Liverpool to lose to Nottingham today, but that is the beauty from english league football today when they are able to destroy a big team Like Manchester United but in fact in another match a small team can destroy them, I think what happened to Liverpool in that match is none other than because indeed Nottingham played more organized and was also able to remain calm even under the pressure of Liverpool in that match, the negative result achieved by Liverpool today will obviously be a lesson for Arne Slot in next match and start think that not all small teams in the Premier League deserve to be underestimated.

Btw when you compare the slot era and Klopp and say if it's impossible Klopp will lose to a team like Nottingham Forest you are actually very wrong, because in the Klopp era even Liverpool once lost to a smaller team that was weaker than Nottingham Forest, even in the 2022 season when Liverpool was still coached by Klopp, they also lost 1-0 to Nottingham Forest.

Southampton are not ready for the premier league imo. They had the game under control in the first 30minutes but they failed to take the lead and then Manchester United took advantage few minutes after as De ligt converted from a cross to give Manchester United the lead. United were able to get three goals at the back of the net to seal all three points. Good game for the red devils. Let’s see if they can build on from this result going forward to get more positive results.

[len01]

In yesterday's match I thought there would be no surprises for the favorite team, but all of that happened in Liverpool defeat. On the one hand, the team that was initially doubted was able to get a victory like Chelsea who was able to beat Bournemouth with a narrow score.
I don't know how to say that disappointment but what is certain is that Liverpool attack line performed not as usual and looked really very bad.
And regarding my bet loss on Man City, it was actually my own mistake taking a big risk betting on Man City victory -1.75 because I was sure Guardiola team would not concede at home. But surprisingly in the early minutes Brentford was able to score 1 goal earlier.

It was very fortunate for me that the loss could be recovered from Chelsea and Aston Villa victories.

You have actually said my mind bro, Nicolas Jackson is actually no where near as good as Nkuku when it comes to taking chances and finishing, and to be frank, Chelsea would have taken the lead earlier if Nkuku was the one spare heading the attack of the Chelsea team, so I 100% believe that Nkuku is more of a better players than Nicolas Jackson.

Secondly, if we all take a look at Nicolas Jackson and how he has fare so far since he came to Chelsea football club, to be sincere, he is part of the major problem of Chelsea, he has practically taken Chelsea backwards because he can't deliver as expected as the number one attacker of the club, and if we look at Chelsea last season, he was the major reason why Chelsea didn't qualify for the uefa champions league this season, because he always fails to deliver all the bunch of chances that always comes begging, and that is what Chelsea legendary midfield Mikel obi pointed out that relying on Nicolas Jackson as the team central forwarder is the major downfall of Chelsea, and I also share the same sentiment, because if he had scored the last chance Chelsea had in their last game, a one on one situation, Chelsea would have had two more points in the league standings, but due to how incompetent he is  when it comes to finishing, Chelsea drew the game and lost to point, a game they would have won easily.

Let’s see if they can build on from this result going forward to get more positive results.

I would say that Southampton's defense is too weak for the Premier League, and Manchester United were obliged to beat such an opponent. I would like to mention De Ligt, he played his second match for Manchester United much better, he moved a lot and tried to show himself in every possible way. I can't say that this match will be a turning point for ten Hag, because the opponent was too weak. Everton did the same, scored two goals and then conceded three, a strange trend... But the biggest surprise was, of course, Liverpool, losing to Nottingham at Anfield is certainly a sensation.
