Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[puloweh555]

I don't think that Newcastle will be able to shock us with surprises by winning City in St James park no matter that they are playing at home. City might be lacking a good midfielder due to De Bruyne and Rodri that are injured doesn't mean that Pep will accept defeat like that. The worst that will happen if the match is too difficult for City will be a draw. Don't forget that when City is playing, they always gain ball possesion and dominate the match which is always an added advantage for them.

Although Man City is very superior in this match, in football we still have to insert the possibility of a surprise because in football anything can happen. So even though this match will be favored by Man City to win this match, I still think Newcastle also has the hope of winning this match at least having the opportunity to steal one point in this match. Because both teams need a win to secure their position in the EPL standings.

In addition, why do we have to insert the possibility of what happens in this match because both teams face this match with poor performance when playing against the London team the previous week. Man City was held to a draw by Arsenal and Newcastle suffered a defeat by Fulham.

On the other hand, Man City, their strength has decreased slightly due to injuries to several key players so that this can be utilized by Newcastle. While Newcastle after seeing the results against Fulham before, of course Newcastle will make a number of changes that have certainly been prepared to fight Man City. So I predict this match will be fierce, Newcastle will deploy all their strength and will trouble Man City's defense line.

[Antotena]

Even as Manchester City are facing some injury problems currently, some of their players won’t be playing some matches, so there is a slight decline in Manchester City's performance, but even with their current performance, Newcastle shouldn't be so difficult for Manchester City to win. I am expecting three points from Manchester City in the match, even if they won't be able to score so many goals in the match, but Manchester City can't afford to drop from their current first position, and if they can lose against Newcastle, then another club will take the position from them, so Manchester City won’t want to lose to a club like Newcastle.

Manchester City role of De Bruyne isn't much compare to when Rodrigo combined together with Haaland are injured. I think t uh e squad is fine and more than average here. Arsenal just happen to be what happens in all other matches but that was a relief they finish as draw instead of lose that will slow them down in the push for this league trophy. In the mean time, even De Bruyne will soon be back fuly because it was just a minor injured, not a serious one that will take months of absence.

I have watch the team features from now till end of October, even if De Bruyne isn't around, his impact wouldn't be felt that much. The defensive players of Manchester City are well in guard and same goes with the forward, only the midfielders lack some but the ones in there are fine and will deliver absolutely. What they should be hoping is they should not have additional injuries to this one they already have otherwise things are going to be difficult from henceforth.

This sunday Manchester United as a host will playing against Tottenham and i think this is big match of this weekend and just like we all know Manchester United performance is not so different compared to last season because they were still unstable even on Europa League Manchester United only playing draw from Eredivisie team Twente and in Premier League too Manchester United only able to gets draw result from Crystal Palace

If we see from recent performance whether it Manchester United and Tottenham has same points because they only can collect 7 points from 5 matches but if we see from meeting statistics i can see Tottenham has good records because they were unbeated from Manchester United in the last 3 meeting



I think this match will be very tight because both teams don't want to losing points anymore and they also want to used this match to bounce back and return to the winning ways but last season Tottenham has gets draw result at Old Trafford and not impossible they will successfully to repeat their achievement again and stole point from Manchester United

Everton had bad times with their former owner and they had a bad performance during that time but it seems now Everton is going to have better times because they started hiring some new players and coaches for this team to improve.
Now Everton even wants to hire Gareth Southgate the former coach of England. Gareth Southgate had a good performance while working in the England national team but he got fired in the end. while he said get believed that they were wrong in getting him fired.
He was working in the England national team from 2016 to 2024.

Everton are having a rough start to their season and it doesn’t look good at all. They have struggled to win games this season and it is no surprise they want to make this move in a bid to try and change things at this early stage of the season. Gareth Southgate is an experienced coach and should do well if he eventually joins Everton this season, he has been working with quite some high profile players in the past and has gathered some more experience to handle Everton.

Newcastle United welcome league leaders Manchester City at the St James stadium on Saturday on what will be the first English Premier League game of the weekend. With 6 games played, Eddie Howe's Newcastle are just three points behind Manchester City who occupies the first position. So my question now is do you think Manchester City will easily get all three points at Newcastle or do you expect the home team to get a good result against the reigning champions?

Newcastle happens to have lost only one game since this season out of the five games played so far, they have won three drew one and lost one, and now at the sixth position Manchester city this season has not been bad playing away so I'm not expecting they do really bad in this game because they are in a good form actually, its not looking like a game that will be a really easy one for city but having all their players on the pitch they are very likely not to settle for a loss in that game but they could get a draw as that isn't really a bad result as they have almost not suffered any loss this season and may not want to with this game but then a draw wouldn't spoil their result as they will still be at the top.

If you read my post very well, you'll come to a conclusion that I never doubted the superiority of Manchester City against other English Premier League teams but just like we saw a surprising result at Anfield early this month when Nottingham Forest narrowly defeated Liverpool, don't you think Newcastle have all it takes to shock Manchester City at home? Newcastle in my own assessment possess this mentality of believing in themselves in big games even when they weren't given a chance to succeed out of curiosity, I'm asking if you think they can pull a shocker against City? 

I don't think that Newcastle will be able to shock us with surprises by winning City in St James park no matter that they are playing at home. City might be lacking a good midfielder due to De Bruyne and Rodri that are injured doesn't mean that Pep will accept defeat like that. The worst that will happen if the match is too difficult for City will be a draw. Don't forget that when City is playing, they always gain ball possesion and dominate the match which is always an added advantage for them.

The best result Newcastle can secure against Man City is a draw though playing at home would give them some confidence, however Man City in their usual characteristic would take much ball possession it's up for Newcastle to defend well and counterattack if the opportunity unveil though they have to be clinical in their final third if they really needed a good result and I believe Isak is up the task to score their goal meanwhile Man City too has powerful attack in their final third thus we hope to watch both team display their attacking force in the thrilling match on Saturday.

[Abu-Naim]

This sunday Manchester United as a host will playing against Tottenham and i think this is big match of this weekend and just like we all know Manchester United performance is not so different compared to last season because they were still unstable even on Europa League Manchester United only playing draw from Eredivisie team Twente and in Premier League too Manchester United only able to gets draw result from Crystal Palace

Manchester United’s inconsistent performance is the topic of discussion because they are yet to go three to four matches of straight wins without either a draw or a defeat; and since the beginning of this season, the squad has improved to some extent that the fans get more confidence, but their inconstancy make the worried which is why some of them are calling for Ten Hag to be sacked.

If we see from recent performance whether it Manchester United and Tottenham has same points because they only can collect 7 points from 5 matches but if we see from meeting statistics i can see Tottenham has good records because they were unbeated from Manchester United in the last 3 meeting



I think this match will be very tight because both teams don't want to losing points anymore and they also want to used this match to bounce back and return to the winning ways but last season Tottenham has gets draw result at Old Trafford and not impossible they will successfully to repeat their achievement again and stole point from Manchester United

Manchester United knows how to play big games, they can defeat a big team even if small teams will also defeat them, they are good in keeping records so as the opposition team will not brake them.

Looking their last five matches they played together, Manchester United have some chances to get three points because they knows how to play big games, and I don’t think Tottenham will defeat them right now.
I know that Tottenham is in need of the three points, but it will not be easy for them to win Manchester United away from home especially after their draw against Twente in the UEFA Europa League. Nevertheless, I am in support of united to win the match unless if Ten Hag set up with another team that will cost him the three points.

[hahay]

Everton had bad times with their former owner and they had a bad performance during that time but it seems now Everton is going to have better times because they started hiring some new players and coaches for this team to improve.
Now Everton even wants to hire Gareth Southgate the former coach of England. Gareth Southgate had a good performance while working in the England national team but he got fired in the end. while he said get believed that they were wrong in getting him fired.
He was working in the England national team from 2016 to 2024.

Everton are having a rough start to their season and it doesn’t look good at all. They have struggled to win games this season and it is no surprise they want to make this move in a bid to try and change things at this early stage of the season. Gareth Southgate is an experienced coach and should do well if he eventually joins Everton this season, he has been working with quite some high profile players in the past and has gathered some more experience to handle Everton.

But, although Gareth Southgate has experience as coach of the England national team, but in reality Gareth Southgate does not have much experience to become a club coach. Because based on existing records, it is noted that Gareth Southgate had previously only been the head coach of Middlesbrough before becoming the head coach of the England national team. Thus, I am personally not sure whether Gareth Southgate is the right solution to restore and improve the performance and quality of Everton.

Because after all, current Everton head coach Sean Dyche also does not have great experience in his coaching career, and the results remain not good results for Everton. Still about Gareth Southgate, the fact is that Gareth Southgate also hasn't managed to have any trophies in his coaching career and thus, although Gareth Southgate is a former  head coach of the England national team, but I personally don't believe Gareth Southgate is able to make Everton rise.

[bitgolden]

Haaland definitely started the season a lot better than I expected, he didn't finish last season very well, between injuries and lack of KDB for half of the season, he had a bad season, but now he is looking much better. I think he might have his best career season ever, finishing these 70 or so games City will have, with maybe near 80-90 goals, which would be a first and not really that impossible. Can he score 40 in the league? He totally can, he has that talent, and rest is easier because it's UCL with 8 games and then out of group stages so he will have some games there, maybe as much as as finals, and then fa cup and the nefl cup, all of these could give him some good goal scoring chances. I am not saying he will score that much, but at least a 50-60 goal season is in play.

Current form and history completely favouring Manchester City to have all three points from this game and keep themselves at the top of Premier League in this coming week we are having mostly easily game for the top ranked teams which are going to give them good points for stabling themselves at the top for title race.

Yeah, this is the reason, right now, betting on City to win, it is very boring because odds are not even worth it anymore, look at how easily they beat everyone and look at the results and you will see that it is clear that betting on them makes no sense. I have seen as low as 1.18 on some game recently, I do not remember which game it was but it is definitely a boring result at that point.

So, I decided not to bet on them unless there is a game with 1.80 or so chances for them, which will probably only happen at later stages of UCL, otherwise I do not think that league will have many of that. Maybe Arsenal? Not sure, it would be very rare case and probably won't even be for Arsenal, only one I can think of would be Real Madrid, aside from that City is clear favourite against everyone else they play.

[SOKO-DEKE]

Did you say easily? I doubt that it will be easy for Manchester City to get all three points that day. My reason is because almost all the teams in the EPL have increased in their performance and Newcastle is not exempted. Aside from that, we have seen Newcastle to be a challenging opponent to Manchester City in the past season. There was a time when they won Manchester City even when they were still in the best performance.

Even as Manchester City are facing some injury problems currently, some of their players won’t be playing some matches, so there is a slight decline in Manchester City's performance, but even with their current performance, Newcastle shouldn't be so difficult for Manchester City to win. I am expecting three points from Manchester City in the match, even if they won't be able to score so many goals in the match, but Manchester City can't afford to drop from their current first position, and if they can lose against Newcastle, then another club will take the position from them, so Manchester City won’t want to lose to a club like Newcastle.

Newcastle is not currently a weak team in the Premier League competition. Their performances have improved over two seasons now, and no team in the Premier League can currently underestimate Newcastle. So, despite Newcastle's performances not being as strong as expected, they will still give Manchester City a difficult time, even if Manchester City eventually wins the match. It is clear that Manchester City is the favorite team to win their next match against Newcastle, but with the injuries Manchester City is currently facing, they need to be very careful when playing against Newcastle.I have watched Newcastle's matches this season, and I saw how they always attack their opponents. I can't say that they will win against Manchester City or draw the game, but Manchester City will not find the game as easy as some people may think. The truth is that, despite knowing that Manchester City has a stronger team than Newcastle, anything can still happen. Even Manchester City's performances are not as great as they were last season, but let's see what happens at the end.

[Falconer]

Nothing is impossible, Newcastle could win their home match against Manchester City.
Newcastle have been a spirited side so far, so they could potentially spring a surprise on a team that has dominated the title for four lucky seasons. Reviewing the previous match against Arsenal, I think there is a weak side in Manchester City that Newcastle can still exploit to at least secure 1 point at home.

But don't think it's easy, so far Haaland is very difficult to stop. He routinely scores goals in every Manchester City match in the Premier League, so he is the most decisive player in the match. If Haaland plays well and can take advantage of many opportunities, then Manchester City will most likely win the match even if Newcastle can score a home goal.

Newcastle chances of securing full points are still open, and they do have the attributes to cause a surprise. However, without meaning to underestimate Newcastle, Manchester City remains the favorite team in the match week 6. Pep Guardiola has several rotation options to replace the injured Rodri, although the match has the potential to be troublesome for both teams, I don't think Manchester City will lose points.

The head to head record of the two teams meetings in the last five matches shows that the defending Premier League champions are still far superior. Arsenal certainly hope that Newcastle can be a stumbling block and hold back Pep Guardiola squad, so that they will benefit from moving up the rankings. Halaand is in his best form, he has scored a total of 10 goals so far. Pep Guardiola will clearly fix the defense, so that Newcastle has difficulty scoring goals even though they are playing in front of their own supporters.

[Huppercase]

Everton are having a rough start to their season and it doesn’t look good at all. They have struggled to win games this season and it is no surprise they want to make this move in a bid to try and change things at this early stage of the season. Gareth Southgate is an experienced coach and should do well if he eventually joins Everton this season, he has been working with quite some high profile players in the past and has gathered some more experience to handle Everton.

Something is off this season about Everton and I don't know how to even explain it because I can remembered this guy's had 10 point deducted from them last season due to some financial fair play which between them and FIFA and yet, they never settled from relegation, they came back strongly and finish well to another season of Premier League only to be sitting in the relegation when the season hasn't reach anywhere, this is so poor to be honest.

Their center back is weak, they can win games like this if they don't reform those guys at the back because I can say the goalkeeper is fair but the defensive players suck in their job and the coach need to either go back to his previous form of the season or improve these guys, it's like they are not doing anything because even from there short on target are not that serious, it shows the team is not putting efforts to even score.

[fullhdpixel]

Everton at the beginning of this season really performed very badly and have not won at all even worse than the club that was promoted this season if their performance continues like this then it will be difficult for them to compete and survive in the Premier League, most likely they will be relegated. But I am happy if they finally recruit a new coach who has better experience Gareth Southgate is a great manager if he coaches Everton maybe it will make this club rise this club needs a great manager to make the club appear stronger.
He has also made the England national team perform well so far it's just that for the English national team it's still not enough and they want to come out as champions while Gareth Southgate has not been able to give it last season the Premier League was only able to reach second place in the European Cup against Spain even though I think that is also a very good result.

This is surely going to be a good decision as now they are having Gareth Southgate as new coach who was with England for long time and having good results now it's time for the Everton to give good performance after having the worst start of the season with 4 consecutive defeats and draw in fifth match after five game they are having just 1 point and concede 14 goals which are clearly indicating how worst they are in this season.

Their attack is also not working as they needed which is creating more problems for them but now with the new coach and having few players things can take positive change which is much needed before it's too late, and they are having no way of return now their next game against Crystal Palace is going to be important as both clubs are looking for their first win of this season and Crystal Palace having draw against Manchester United at home and Everton have draw against new promoted Leicester City in last game.

Newcastle chances of securing full points are still open, and they do have the attributes to cause a surprise. However, without meaning to underestimate Newcastle, Manchester City remains the favorite team in the match week 6. Pep Guardiola has several rotation options to replace the injured Rodri, although the match has the potential to be troublesome for both teams, I don't think Manchester City will lose points.

But this will still be difficult and it will even be a surprise if Newcastle can beat City in this match. The 3-1 defeat to Fulham last week will definitely deal a heavy blow to Howe's men who could make this a slightly difficult situation where they struggle to generate confidence.

The advantage that Newcastle have at the moment is quite good where Manchester City will lose 2 of their vital players because Rodri is injured for a long time and KDB may still not be able to compete in this match, providing a little ease for the midfield even though Manchester City's dominance is still very strong but the midfield at least will not be as scary. The most important thing is that they have to make the most of playing at home because after all now they clearly have the advantage of fans in the match so this must be used as a spur if they want to take points in the match.

[Issa56]

Welcome to the club. At this point, whoever insists that Erik Ten Hag should remain in Manchester United wants to the see the club fail. Look how badly the team is performing, Erik Ten Hag has been given enough chances to improve the performance of the club but season after season Manchester United still struggle with maintaining consistency in the premier league.

It’s just surprising why Manchester United management haven’t sacked Ten Hag yet, the club’s performance is getting worse on a daily basis, and Ten Hag can no longer help. After Manchester United won against Southampton and Barnsley, most of their fans were happy that they are already getting back to form, but I knew they were able to win those matches just because of the clubs they played against, but we can see that there is no improvement in Manchester United’s performance, and it’s high time they just sack Ten Hag.
 
Ten Hag has been given enough time, and if there is no improvement in the club’s performance, then he should just leave, but Manchester United will have a problem getting a quality coach, because I don’t even know the coach that they can get that will be able to improve the club's performance.

Newcastle has really been very consistent this season even though they have lost one game out of the 5 matches they have played but that doesn't mean they will become a threat to Manchester city despite they are having some injury issues but Pep Guardiola is a professional coach and he knows how to substitute players that will deliver for him so he will definitely provide a replacement for the injured players and still lead his team to victory though Newcastle can still take everyone by surprise but the chances are very rare. Manchester city possesses the ball in most of their games but it's not a guarantee that they will win in every match they have more goal possession.

But, although Gareth Southgate has experience as coach of the England national team, but in reality Gareth Southgate does not have much experience to become a club coach. Because based on existing records, it is noted that Gareth Southgate had previously only been the head coach of Middlesbrough before becoming the head coach of the England national team. Thus, I am personally not sure whether Gareth Southgate is the right solution to restore and improve the performance and quality of Everton.

Managing a national team and a club is very different and with a club, you will have a long season with many matches and of course more challenges than with a national team. Through a long season, working with many players, many issues in your management and relationships with your players, can be shown. It is more easier to manage a national team in a tournament with 7 to 8 matches when star players can unite together to win a title. In a long season that lasts for 9 months in a club, it's harder to have it and as a head coach, if you fail to unite your players together, you fail. Not yet to say, your tactics will be another important factor for success with a club too.

Southgate did not have too much experience as a club's head coach and Everton take big risk to hire him but maybe they see it is worth to try.

Chelsea reckless purchase was successfully utilized by Maresca with great precision. So I think Chelsea is very lucky that a coach like Maresca works harder to utilize the availability of many players. Against Barrow without any problems at all and brought another big win after they also performed impressively in the EPL. Chelsea management began to improve themselves, the advantage of having many players has begun to be seen and Maresca easily divides the time of players who specifically appear in the EPL and the rest will be rotated for competitions such as the EFL Cup.

Yes Maresca seems to be putting all the pieces of the puzzle together for Chelsea since taking over this season, the advantage of having many options in various positions is really paying off now for the club with others still available for rotation for other league cup games and European games this season. Indeed Chelsea have a big squad this season and good quality players available at their disposal for Enzo Maresca.

[iBaba]

Ten Hag has been given enough time, and if there is no improvement in the club’s performance, then he should just leave, but Manchester United will have a problem getting a quality coach, because I don’t even know the coach that they can get that will be able to improve the club's performance.

Ten Hag does not seem to be able to improve on his character and relationship with the players. He's still disallowing himself to be free enough to accommodate and lead the players to their best performance making it difficult for the club to be consistent enough.

As a manager, you must have the ability to boost the morale of the players at all time to give them the ability and strength to work out their skills on their games. This is the major issue I've seen from Ten Hag. He needs continue to work on his own temperament to achieve more success. It takes humility and self-discipline to become a successful manager.

[Alpha Marine]

Even as Manchester City are facing some injury problems currently, some of their players won’t be playing some matches, so there is a slight decline in Manchester City's performance, but even with their current performance, Newcastle shouldn't be so difficult for Manchester City to win. I am expecting three points from Manchester City in the match, even if they won't be able to score so many goals in the match, but Manchester City can't afford to drop from their current first position, and if they can lose against Newcastle, then another club will take the position from them, so Manchester City won’t want to lose to a club like Newcastle.

I don't think that game will be an easy one for Manchester City. They will be without Rodri, De Bryune and Haaland. All these are very important players and they will all be missed. I believe if De Bruyne was available against Arsenal they would have won because they needed his long-range shot and accurate crosses in that game.
I am not sure if Haaland is injured but I saw updates earlier that he has a knock, if this is true then Manchester City are in trouble. They don't have any other striker since they sold Alvarez. Haaland is their most prolific goal scorer and playing without him might be difficult.

Newcastle is in good form, but they always concede so I expect the game to have at least 3 goals. Manchester United will also concede so both teams to score might be a good option to bet on.

Watching Manchester United play really gave me a hard time believing that some people out there, believes that United can go far with what we all are experiencing now. Manchester were not even able to face a club like Twente, not even standard to a Premier league team, i watched them play last night and they where really poor in performance if only United were capable of controlling the game and making huge chances of their opportunities.

I will keep saying this, both the players and the coach are both involved witnessing this kind of output, check out how many chances created and how many missed, United players really needs to work on their finishing and slightly the coach has to do more for the players distributing the ball before approaching the opponents. Manchester are not yet ready to sack Ten Hag, i think they confide in him more for the rest of the season, until then we just hope to see some changes meanwhile United forwarders needs a lot to learn, Jackson now seems more clinical than any of the United players.
