Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[Cryptoprincess101]

Rodri and De Bruyne seem to be out for quite a while based on my reference sources, but City still have other players to replace them. They have Silva, Kovacic and Gundohan, or Foden who will be rotated. There are still other names for Pep to formulate his strategy against Newcastle in tomorrow's match. Moreover, even though they are playing away and some of their main players are absent, City are still far superior to the home team. It is clear that City's chances of getting points in this match are very big. But it's not football if the results can be predicted or known for sure, when the match is running in normal time anything can happen. Perhaps, Eddie Howe will formulate his tactics based on the City vs Arsenal match. Nothing is impossible, although theoretically City is always favored. We'll just have to see when this match is held, hopefully Newcastle will put up a fierce fight so that the match is worth enjoying when we watch it.

Rodri and Kevin De Bruyne being ruled out of City's games due to injury is really very sad especially for Rodri who could be out for a very long time until the end of the season as a result of how severe his knee injury he sustained in the match against Arsenal last sunday is, but that not withstanding Pep Guardiola can find suitable replacement from his squad and they move on so i don't see much threat to Manchester city in their upcoming match against Newcastle. I know Newcastle can be a stubborn opponent but Manchester city will try their possible best to record victory and still continue their campaign at the top of the league table.

But you will never underestimate the Newcastle team because they can upset the teams in their home ground and City is currently facing a few injuries of their main players like Rodri and De Bruyne.

I don’t think anyone is underestimating any club, and with the current condition of Manchester City, I don’t think Guardiola will underestimate any club because he won’t want to lose points unnecessarily. I know Manchester City are currently facing injury problems, but even without players that are injured, then Manchester City will still be able to win Newcastle because there is a replacement for those players on injury, so if not that Manchester City are playing against strong teams, it’s not really going to have a serious impact on the club’s performance.

We'll see after tomorrow's game how Guardiola can get a win against Newcastle when they have a bit of an injury problem, and anyway their reserves are enough to cover the main vacant positions, they don't have a big void to be considered bad.
Newcastle do have a pretty good performance, they also have a pretty solid game, now in 6th place in the English premier league table getting 3 wins one draw and one loss in the previous match against Fulham, so there is still a slight chance of winning, although it is more likely to end in a draw again.

Manchester city and Newcastle meeting tomorrow at Newcastle's home will be very interesting. Till this minute, I am not sure if I should play a win for city, because as it stands, they won't be in action with two important players, which are de bryune and rodri. I am not sure of how city will compete and snatch all points from Newcastle, but I think they need to do that if they have to stay at the top for the time being. I might just play the game a draw since City will be playing away from home, and without two key players.

I feel Newcastle attack can do a little damage to city's defense due to the high press football that pep plays often. And I also think Haaland might be unstoppable tomorrow. And I am not sure of how tonali's relationship have been with eddy howe since he made his return from a long term suspension. I will like to see in him action tomorrow, maybe coming from the bench will do.

Rodri and Kevin De Bruyne being ruled out of City's games due to injury is really very sad especially for Rodri who could be out for a very long time until the end of the season as a result of how severe his knee injury he sustained in the match against Arsenal last sunday is, but that not withstanding Pep Guardiola can find suitable replacement from his squad and they move on so i don't see much threat to Manchester city in their upcoming match against Newcastle. I know Newcastle can be a stubborn opponent but Manchester city will try their possible best to record victory and still continue their campaign at the top of the league table.

Of course, the absence of Kevin and Rodri will be quite detrimental to Manchester City in tomorrow's match because they get a strong opponent, Newcastle United.
However, if we look at last season, of course Pep Guardiola was able to overcome the gaps in the team when his main players were absent and I believe he will also be able to do it in tomorrow's match by bringing victory to Manchester City. Moreover, looking at the temporary standings table, of course Manchester City's points with the teams in second and third place are only one point apart so if they fail in tomorrow's match, there could be a big opportunity for other teams to lead the standings.

However, Manchester City can take advantage of the instability of the opposing team in tomorrow's match because Newcastle United in the previous match they were defeated by Fulham. Haaland is also in his best form so he will be able to bring Manchester City to victory in tomorrow's match.

Rodri is going to be out for the remainder of the season due to his ACL injury. Rodri is an important piece to Pep Guardiola’s game plan. His long absence will affect the team’s performance but I don’t think it will affect Manchester City title race this season. Manchester City have the money and will buy replacement in January. I believe Pep is playing mind games with his recent comments.

Pep Guardiola is very good at playing mind games so that he doesn't take too many blames at the end of results doesn't go his way. The Spanish manager have been doing that over the years and it's been working for him. There's no doubting the fact that Rodri have been one of clubs best players in that last four seasons but to say that his absence is enough to stop City from winning the league title this season I think is a joke taken too far.

[KTChampions]

Unfortunately, I am not given the ability to see the future 
But I'm only interested in one question: are the bookmakers offering good odds? At the moment, the odds for this game are as follows:

5.30 - 4.30 - 1.60

+60% for an away game against a good team? Definitely not.
I think it should be 1.7-1.8 minimum. I don't really want to bet on Newcastle either, but if I'm right, they are seriously undervalued.

The odds of City must be more than 1.9 or 2.0. And i will consider it fair. This is because they get fewer advantages compared to Newcastle. They lost their best CAM and DM. They also play away at St. James' Park. Their schedule is busier than their opponent's. Their players are probably exhausted.

And as you said that, 1.6 is too small for City. But there may be a reason why bookies gave City smaller odds than our expectation. It's probably due to the awful performance of their opponent (conceded 6 and scored 7 goals).

All in all, 1.6 is still worthy enough to bet, considering they have a greater chance of winning with a narrow score.

Newcastle's goal difference is really bad, but they have great consistency in attack: they have scored at least one goal in every game. If you look at City, they have 5 goals conceded, which is worse than Liverpool (1) and Arsenal (3), Brighton and Forest (4). With such input data, I begin to believe that the game will definitely end with BTTS Yes. And yet I consider the bet on City to be unfounded.

His long absence will affect the team’s performance but I don’t think it will affect Manchester City title race this season. Manchester City have the money and will buy replacement in January. I believe Pep is playing mind games with his recent comments.

We all understand the fact that Rodri is an important player for Manchester City and a special tool in PEP guardiola's game plan. His absence would definitely be felt by any coach and in any team but it is not to the extent that Pep Guardiola is exaggerating it. We all know PEP and his mind game. He is definitely telling his next opponent to prepare less because his hit man is absent. Listen to Pep Guardiola at your own peril. If a player like KDB could be absent and nothing happened to Manchester city and also a player like Haaland was absent and they still did fine, I believe they will definitely cope even without Rodri.

I know Newcastle can be a stubborn opponent but Manchester city will try their possible best to record victory and still continue their campaign at the top of the league table.

I have to disagree with you that Manchester City wouldn’t feel the heat of this players, this two are pep Guardiola most reliable players, the two of them are highly untouchable for his Pep Gaurdiola I could remember last season when Rodri had gotten suspended and Also injured they were struggling to win matches and that’s why Rodri is more or less untouchable in the Manchester city team. Right now Pep have both Kovacic and Matheus Nunez at his disposal but I don’t think Pep will be satisfied without this two players right now. We will see how they will also deal with such a huge loss from this two players.

Newcastle's goal difference is really bad, but they have great consistency in attack: they have scored at least one goal in every game. If you look at City, they have 5 goals conceded, which is worse than Liverpool (1) and Arsenal (3), Brighton and Forest (4). With such input data, I begin to believe that the game will definitely end with BTTS Yes. And yet I consider the bet on City to be unfounded.

To add to your confluence I will say both teams to score with the fact that Manchester city themselves are not having Rodri as a shield to the defense and they have also conceded goals in every match this season already. More so the last season meeting between them both actually produced goals and I also expect it to happen again

I don't think Pet is playing mind games. Losing Rodri is a big loss for Man City's squad. Rodri is a player who no one can replace directly. Rodri's absence will create a huge gap in midfield, affecting Man City's ability to control the game and the solidity of the defense. Coach Pep Guardiola faces a difficult problem when finding a replacement. With his contributions, Man City has no similar player. Man City will have to find a way to adjust and other players can come together to replace Rodri.
The likes of John Stones, Mateo Kovacic, and Ilkay Gundogan are potential replacements from the current squad. Of course, Guardiola has not ruled out the possibility of Man City signing a new midfielder in January.

It will certainly be tough for Pep and Man City as a whole to play without Rodri for this season, he will only be able to come back next season. But everything must run smoothly again even without him. There are many things that must continue to be fought for and although they certainly cannot replace it 100% as what Rodri did, they will always try to prepare him much better.

That's another mind game. I don't fully trust what Pep said. It makes no sense. Just because he missed Rodri, he thinks he has already lost everything. It's very contradictory to what he said in his interview. He said he's still finding the problem caused by missing Rodri. He's also looking for a replacement when it's needed.

[Majestic-milf]

 Early kick offs are something most clubs dread and you'd really dread it if you are playing hosts to City as Newcastle are doing today. They've been on an average performance of late and won three out of their last five game but lost to Fulham when they travelled to the craven cottage last week and now the major challenge will be if they can hold Man City who seem to be desperate to maintain fine form especially now that they lack the services of KDB and Rodrigo.
 I have the feeling that Man City will struggle today but then it's just a feeling and they can probably shake it off when they break the defense of Newcastle because the defense is something that has been an issue for Eddie Howe.

Losing Rodri is big problem for Manchester City. He is special player who ca not be replaced easily. Coach Pep Guardiola must find new way to strengthen team midfield. Some players like John Stones and Mateo Kovacic and Ilkay Gundogan can help but they are not as good as Rodri. Guardiola needs to change his strategy and use his players wisely. If not City might struggle to win title. They might buy new midfielder in January but until then they must find way to overcome Rodri absence.

At least Man City is always ready for this condition. That is why Man City always has very quality reserve players that Pep can use whenever the team needs them. Just like when De Bruyne suffered a long injury last season, we can see that this team is still able to stand strong and is difficult to beat by other teams in the Premier League except for Arsenal last season.

And yes, against Newcastle, I think it will still be a fierce match. Where Man City will still look strong and they will still be difficult to beat. Man City could even embarrass Newcastle in front of Newcastle's own supporters. But because I also don't want to underestimate Newcastle, I think the opposite could happen in this match. Where Man City will lose points for the first time.

If one were to discuss Manchester City's most important players, I think the first names that would come to mind would be KBD and Rodri. These two players are Manchester City's attacking midfielders as well as the great finishers the team needs at times, but unfortunately both players have suffered long-term injuries at the same time this season which has led to concerns over their injury management.  

KBD was most likely out of action last season too with an injury and was expected to make a strong comeback in the upcoming season but failed to do so. Since two important players of the team are not with the team at the moment, Manchester City will hire new players instead of these two or they will continue this season with their old players, but it is not yet clear from the team.  
But if there is a weakness in the performance of the team then I think definitely some players should be brought to the club even if on loan.

They are most important players of Manchester City but because of ageing effects, role of Kevin now is less than some seasons ago. He is still important player in Manchester City but maybe no longer a first or second most important player there.

Rodri is most important player in Manchester City because he plays in the midfield and has good ability to keep balance of their system between attacking and defense. Rodri has good ability to score important goals for Manchester City and he is like an ace up their sleeves. His goal for Manchester City in a Champions League final match is an example.

KBD was most likely out of action last season too with an injury and was expected to make a strong comeback in the upcoming season but failed to do so. Since two important players of the team are not with the team at the moment, Manchester City will hire new players instead of these two or they will continue this season with their old players, but it is not yet clear from the team.  

Kevin can still play very well but his appearances in Manchester City squad become less and less. Because he is older and gets more injuries with time as well as needs more time for recovery. He will be like many players who will have worse bodies and performances with time.

Rodri is going to be out for the remainder of the season due to his ACL injury. Rodri is an important piece to Pep Guardiola’s game plan. His long absence will affect the team’s performance but I don’t think it will affect Manchester City title race this season. Manchester City have the money and will buy replacement in January. I believe Pep is playing mind games with his recent comments.

ACL is the most fearful injury type with football player and with this injury, Rodri lost this season but maybe more than that. It will make his body less vulnerable to more injuries in future after he recovers from this one.

This serious injury of Rodri and his absence in rest of season will change a lot of Pep Guardiola's plans for Manchester City. They will be affected a lot by this accident because for many seasons, Rodri is almost irreplaceable defensive midfielder in Manchester City.

With Rodri's absence due to the injury he received in the match against Arsenal, this is indeed a big loss for Man City. But that doesn't mean it will be a big problem for this team. But maybe the impact will be quite felt when Man City is now starting to get busy with all its match schedules. And as a defensive midfielder, Rodri's role is very important to support Man City to remain superior in all competitions. But Pep Guardiola now has to think of other ways so that this team can still play well and can balance the strengths in all lines.

That's a soft way to say Manchester City will lose against Newcastle.

It's a long way to go for waiting them to find a new player in January, there are still 3 month. Manchester City will lose many points in this 3 months, although Pep can rotate other player to play in Rodri's position, but definitely it's different.

This is a good chance for Liverpool and Arsenal to collect points as much as they can.

[tusandii]

The 6th week of the English Premier League will be held today, there is one very interesting match to watch, namely the Man City vs Newcastle match, they are both quite tough teams and this is an away match for Man City at Newcastle headquarters and bookmakers give odds to Man City of @ 1.61 in my opinion it is a reasonable odds and most likely Man City will win.
For other matches I bet on the Arsenal and Liverpool matches, I think they have a greater chance of winning Arsenal against a promotion club with a performance that is not so good while Liverpool also faces a club that is currently performing poorly which is at the bottom of the standings.

[bering]

Today Chelsea have to working hard to beat Brighton because in Premier league although from the position on league standing below to Chelsea but Brighton status is still unbeated so i have to says this is hard match for Chelsea and  indeed from squad quality Brighton is below to Chelsea but i have to says they are can be categorized as strong team too and this season Brighton can able to beat Manchester United and draw from Arsenal so they cannot be underestimate

Enzo Maresca strategy in Chelsea finally can working well because at least until week 5 Chelsea performance is quite stable and since beated by Manchester City last month Chelsea was never suffering the loses again and their current record is Premier league is unbeated in the last 4 matches and Chelsea can able to gets 3 wins from those matches

Chelsea was total scoring 8 goals from 3 latest matches in all competitions and still clean sheet and this is positive results from Chelsea and about the match against Brighton i can see Chelsea is the favourite and the bookies also provide good odds to bets for Chelsea @1.74 and actually although Brighton still unbeated i think Chelsea still have good chances to win this match as long as they can playing consistent
