Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[abhiseshakana]

West Ham United possessed ball more today but Chelsea defence was good today and Nicolas Jackson displayed his real talent today. Normally Nicolas Jackson is a good player but the finishing part was the issue he was having and as you said, he has been working on that weak part of him and he is overcoming it gradually. And as it was said by some commenters before, in this season Chelsea is trying more that the previous seasons. And it is recommendable.
We pray that they should continue like this. West Ham United is a strong team and we can see it from the match today.

Westham are to blame for their loss, they didn’t play like they wanted even a point from the game allowing Chelsea to dominate them in both halves. I was surprised to see how Nicolas Jackson was making those runs and cutting through Westham’s defense and creating chances. Chelsea have been playing well this season, the problem they had was their finishing which is Jackson’s area. Now that Jackson is scoring goals, Chelsea are going to finish in a good position this season.

West Ham's poor defense gave them a lot of space and their midfielders were unable to control the rhythm of the game, although the statistics of both teams are balanced, only The Hammers were unable to steal a single goal at home. On the other hand, Chelsea played well today and showed progress, the team began to organize every line played well, 3-0 for the Blues' victory was fair enough and it looks like Jackson is also starting to overcome his weaknesses, yes, hopefully he can maintain this good performance,
This season Chelsea looks better than Man United.

Chelsea really has the speed that can destroy West Ham's defense, and all their goals started with that quick move. Both teams actually had almost equal possession of the ball, and even West Ham had more shots on target than Chelsea. But what makes it different, Chelsea can really use their pace, and they coupled it with some pretty effective counter-attacks. While, West Ham, although they also had some good chances, but they did not have a good finishing touch, or rather they didn't have much space to make a comfortable shot because Chelsea has a fairly solid defensive coordination.

Great competition between Manchester City and Arsenal team will be held in the old match, which team will win this match, it cannot be said correctly, every team performance is very good in this season. Whenever they perform offensively, the Manchester City team is far ahead in the Premier League and occupy the second place in the points table. And most people bet on Manchester City team,

Both teams have not played their fifth match this season and whoever wins the match, then one of them will be at the top of the Premier League standings because currently the top position is occupied by Liverpool who is also predicted as a candidate team for the championship this season. But for most people who bet on Manchester City, it is also quite reasonable because in terms of strength, the Manchester City team is still slightly better than Arsenal this season. In addition, Manchester City is also the home team in today's match so Manchester City could be superior to Arsenal although it is possible that Arsenal could also win there today.

Soon our eyes will witness the Big Match between Man City vs Arsenal which will take place at the Etihad stadium, this match is full of prestige because last season Arsenal was Man City only competitor in the fight for the championship title with a margin of two points. After failing to win in the Champions League against Inter in the UCL, Pep Guardiola's squad will now try to continue the positive trend in order to secure their position at the top of the standings while widening the gap with Arsenal.

Arteta will also apply tactics such as winning at Tottenham headquarters by relying on counter-attacks and also utilizing corner kicks or set pieces so he can steal points from City and end the positive trend of Pep Guardiola troops. I would not bet on any team in this game because it is very difficult to predict the final result due to the strength of both teams which are almost equal. Although City is more favored because of its status as the host, a draw vs Inter could possibly happen again at the Etihad Stadium.

I'm afraid that when they fire him the season will be lost. And then. the circle will close again: this season will be "preparation" for the next one, etc. I understand that no serious coach will go to United, so the management does not fire Ten Hag, but maybe they should start going through young coaches in the hope of finding a new Xabi? Xabi also came to Bayer in the middle of the season and when it was at rock bottom, but in the end he corrected the situation. United have no hope with Ten Hag, 3 years is enough to understand this.

If firing Ten Hag now is indeed quite difficult for Man United management to get a new coach, especially when the competition has started, of course it will be quite difficult for the new coach to develop the team, but if the management does not fire Ten Hag, there will be no progress in the Man United team.
Now everything has proven that Ten Hag failed to make the Man United team better, so Manchester United management must take firm steps to be able to advance this team regardless of who will be their new coach, but at least there is an effort made.

Exactly my thoughts! You have to at least try.
I think everyone has forgotten but United is not just an average club, they have to be in the top 4 every season and at least formally fight for the title. And here we are with 7 points after 5 games. What?
It's a question of positioning: if United is an average club, then everything is fine, let Ten Hag stay, if the management thinks that United should aspire to more, then Teg Hag should be fired already.

Yes, and of course Manchester United is indeed one of the top teams in the EPL, in every season especially especially towards the end of the season or even since the beginning a team like Manchester United should be in the top 4 of the standings in competition with Arsenal and Manchester City, although I understand that every team always has the possibility to experience changes in a more positive direction or vice versa, but the problems experienced by Manchester United I think have dragged on, there has been no indication of any change, they are still far from stable. On the other hand, as you said, if Manchester United were an ordinary team or a middle team, of course the decline would not be the focus of EPL fans, and for a team like Manchester United at least or even they should finish in the top 4 of the standings to secure a UCL ticket when they fail to win the trophy.

I think the Manchester City match that will take place will be exciting because their current opponent is Arsenal who does have the same strong performance. I'm not sure who will win, so I will watch this match to enjoy the excitement that will happen.
Although the chances of winning are greater for Manchester City, I think this match is difficult to predict who will win. With Manchester City themselves, they must be able to win if they want to return to the top rankings, but I think it's not easy to beat Arsenal, maybe the opposite will happen where Arsenal could make Manchester City have difficulty with the strategy they will build later.Is it possible that this will end in a draw?
In addition, I think there will be a trade of attacks in this match, so I myself am really looking forward to this one match.

Chelsea really has the speed that can destroy West Ham's defense, and all their goals started with that quick move.

With Cole Palmer, Chelsea has an attacking midfielder who can provide all these things, speed, creativeness, accurate key passes, assists and goals. This young player grew up too much since the last season and he has been continuing his growth and improvements in this season.

Both teams actually had almost equal possession of the ball, and even West Ham had more shots on target than Chelsea. But what makes it different, Chelsea can really use their pace, and they coupled it with some pretty effective counter-attacks. While, West Ham, although they also had some good chances, but they did not have a good finishing touch, or rather they didn't have much space to make a comfortable shot because Chelsea has a fairly solid defensive coordination.

Ball possession is important but there are other things that decide a match. From good ball possession, you must create enough attacking pressure and chances to score goals. There are other things to help a team scoring goals too and if they don't have all these things, and only have good ball possession, it's useless.

It's what West Ham got in this match, Chelsea in contrast, have all other things so they scored three goals and destroyed West Ham.

Manchester City English Premier League game against Arsenal that'll kick off in less than 15 minutes from now is undoubtedly the strongest and most interesting game of the weekend in England so I totally agree to your submission about intensity of the match and what we should expect. Manchester City stands a better chance of winning the game as they've clearly been the better team than Arsenal since the start of the season but I think Mikel Arteta's men stands a good chance of getting something out of this particular game.
Declan Rice is back to the Arsenal team after missing out on their last two league games and his return I think will be major boost to Arsenal's midfield. It's actually difficult to predict the game but I think City will get all three points after 90 minutes

[pusaka]

Why do Manchester united fans even have to be proud? Most Manchester United fans claimed they dominated the match, but all they could get after the final whistle was blown was just 1 point.

That's what a fan does. If a fan can not feed their team with positive vibe than what's the point to support the team. Full disclosure, not a Utd fan LOL

Currently Manchester United's level has dropped which makes a draw like a win for them, even though the team they are facing is not a top team. Lol
Manchester United fans must accept the fact that the team they are proud of now is not the team like in the past where they were very strong not only in the Premier League, but even in Europe. Now they are just an ordinary team despite their status as a big team, because what we judge now is their game not the history they have ever recorded.
I think they have been in this situation for too long, and I think one of the problems lies in the management who cannot manage this team well. Manchester United must be in the right hands if they want to return to their former glory.

Now everything has proven that Ten Hag failed to make the Man United team better, so Manchester United management must take firm steps to be able to advance this team regardless of who will be their new coach, but at least there is an effort made.

Manchester United is only better with a weaker team, while when facing a team that is almost the same class as it in the Premier League, Manchester United often cannot win the match as happened in the match against Crystal Palace. I think the team management must be able to find a new coach with any condition because if it is not replaced, of course bad results for the Manchester United team will always be easier to get this season because Ten Hag really has no strategy in building and developing the team every season.

[Out of mind]

The way Manchester City is playing their games and showing their performance in the adverse season, we can confirm that City team will win against Arsenal today. We follow Manchester City as currently the strongest team in English Premier League, and they give their best performance in every match. Today's match has started, and already I can see the game and here Manchester City managed to score a goal against Arsenal.
At the start of the game, Haaland managed to stop the ball in Arsenal's goal net, he was playing brilliantly and scored in 9 minutes. 
Moreover, I think that Manchester City have the potential to score more goals in the 90 minutes of today's match because they are attacking more aggressively, and they are stronger at their home ground in this match.

[Frankolala]

Haaland have just scored Arsenal with a fantastic finish on the 8th minutes of the first half by placing the ball to the last angle of the left hand side of the post. Raya couldn't do anything as the ball passed in to the net.

From the look of things, it is clear that Manchester city is well prepared for this match as they have being dominating and creating more chances to score another goal. Savinho is really super active in this match.

What a good start for the home team with an early goal.

M.City 1-0 Arsenal

I would not say that the draw in the match against Crystal Palace was Ten Hag's fault, but in reality this was purely the fault of the players who were not able to take advantage of their goal opportunities properly. There were many opportunities that could have been converted into goals, but they all failed because of bad finishing.

Ten Hag did everything he could to increase his chances of winning, but until the final whistle sounded, not a single goal was scored against Crystal Palace. Garnacho, Bruno, Matthijs de Ligt and several other players missed their big chances, so it's clear this wasn't Ten Hag's fault. Of course there needs to be improvement in finishing when they control the game, but we still find Manchester United lacking consistency.

We have perfect start of this classic match on Super Sunday as Eric Haaland give his team early lead and things are clearly going for the interesting and action packed end of this game which is going to be had good impact on league table as well with this goal now Eric Haaland is clearly leading top scorers list by 10 goals and Manchester City is also having good lead at the top.

Even we are still having 70 minutes left in this game but start is telling all story about Pep Guardiola and Eric Haaland mission for this game they want to clear this big hurdle and keep themselves at the top with safely of 3 points from the Liverpool and Aston Villa which are having 12 points each after 5 games.

It is such a pity for Pep and his men who was happy for their early goal as R. Calafiori has canceled the goal with a wonderful strike from outside the box which went straight to the right corner of the post to equalize the goal and Pep became angry for his defense on that laxity. City fans are now quiet while Arsenal fans are happy for that goal.

It is now a balanced game and I must say kudos to Arsenal for not wasting time to put themselves back into the game. I must say that R. Calafiori goal was more unique compared to Haaland goal. It is 1-1.

I already see this coming that we can not be able to defeat Manchester city in this kind of condition the pattern of ball that arteta wants to be reintroducing does not make sence focusing on defensive play just puts us in a tight condition, even with the defense game Haaland is already scoring. Just 9 minutes of the game and I was already prepared that we are going to be loosing this game and we have lost it already. And even now that Arsenal have scored an equalizing goal, much pressure is still coming from Manchester city and they are so determined to score us and they already know that Arsenal is no longer on the way and if we should lose this game then we are going to be following behind Manchester city and with the current momentum that Manchester City play we are not going to be able to hold them for long.

When ever we are playing against Manchester City am not always happy because of our own pattern. And even if am not sure about our win Manchester won't be able to beat us the way you are saying it. The defense play will restrain every one from scoring but even if the defense is strong because i trust saliba when it comes to our defense, and this doku needs to be monitored is looking for how to score. And this first half is going to end 1:1 am so sure if it and their is no harm done yet until they win against us. Now I see the reason why saka have been angry our performance is not just satisfying.

Yes, I saw Pep Guardiola really angry when Arsenal's goal came back. There was a bit of debate between the Manchester City players and the referee regarding the scheme of the return goal, but I don't think this is really worth debating. The tension in this match was so high that the two coaches really had to exhaust their minds to find the best strategy, so it was only natural that a small mistake could trigger the coach's anger.

So far Manchester City is still dominating the match with the intensity of its attacks. Arsenal tend to defend and capitalize on counter-attacks, perhaps this can help them not concede another goal in the first half. Unfortunately, Rodri had to be removed from this match due to injury, which was detrimental for Manchester City.

It's unbelievable that a defender like Calafiori can score a goal like this. A distant shot that is fantastic goal for Calafiori and Arsenal to equalize the match.

Haaland scored an opening goal very early at 9th minute but Arsenal shown that they don't easily give up and want to compete seriously with Manchester City, in this season and firstly in this first direct match. The sudden injury of Rodri and a substitution on him, affects defense ability of Manchester City in the midfield. This weakness helps Arsenal to have that chance to make a distant shot but Calafiori simply made a perfect shot.

He has reasons to be angry because Manchester City players need to close space around their box. This is very dangerous space and in a big match like this, if you let the space too open, you have to get conceded goals. With strong opponents like Arsenal, Manchester City can not hope that their opponents will waste too many chances like this.

In addition, Haaland has reached 100 goals playing 105 matches for Man city. As a result, the team is well equipped with a competent striker like him, just like the days of Aguero, but Halaand has more goals to score for Manchester city team. Despite his striking morale, Arsenal is another competent team that wouldn't sit back and watch city score more goals. Furthermore, Arsenal's second goal is quite amazing! Let's keep watching how it ends.  

[SatoPrincess]

I didn’t expect Arsenal to be this fierce. My prediction of 2-0 victory for Manchester City is already in shit as Arsenal are leading the game two goals to one. Interestingly the two goals for Arsenal were scored by their defenders, Calafiori; and Gabriel.

Edit: Trossard just picked up a second yellow and he’s been sent out. Arsenal will play the second half with 10 men.

The bookies are in a tough spot right now - City will dominate, but the score is still 1-2 and all Arsenal needs is just to hold on to it. Given that Arteta has 15 minutes to make a plan and explain everything to the players, I think the chances of Arsenal holding on to it are high. Playing against a team that is 100% closed is very difficult, especially for those teams that play for ball control. Ball control is useless if the opponent is not going to take ball and only destroys.

Shit. Although Arsenal have the goal advantage, the hosts have the man advantage and if there's anything the Gunners need now is to retain their confidence, continue to press and also defend because right now City are furious that the game is not going in their favor and if they don't control their tempers, they can make lots of mistakes. I'm so curious to see how the second half and for the first time, I'm rooting for the Gunners to win at the Etihad and shock Guardiola.
