Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

[CryptoBuds]

I have stopped betting on City matches but it would be fun to always bet against them in their matches, because you might end up making good profits from their matches. Everton gave most big clubs headache when they clashed and City also faced that. City is falling gradually, and it might be difficult for them to boubce back this season. Pep should get some players when the transfer window is open.

That was how I stopped betting on Chelsea last season. The Blue's condition was so bad that lowly lowly-placed team where beating them mercilessly. I think this is Manchester City's turn to be humiliated. I won't also bet on City either because they are not the top-class club we used to know. New players might help but the mentality of the players is more important.

Chelsea's performance in the last season was terrible. Even then, the team was able to perform well in the last few matches of the season. So, Chelsea was able to occupy the sixth place in the table until the end. However, there is no doubt that Chelsea's players are able to perform well this season. The second place in the table is now occupied by Chelsea.

It may not be possible for Chelsea to win the title. However, Chelsea's overall performance this season is very good. Chelsea is in the second place in the table. Chelsea has achieved 35 points from 18 matches. Liverpool has achieved 39 points from 16 matches. Chelsea may not be able to occupy the top place in the table. However, Chelsea will be able to qualify for the Champions League. Chelsea may become even stronger next season and compete for the title.

Wonders shall never end and surprises are part bound to happen in football. Fulham was able to have a welcome back in the second half, after Chelsea scored their only goal in the first half. Wilson equalized the goal for hia club with a beautiful header after he got an assist from with a header Castagne on the 82nd minutes. On the last minute of the extra time R. Muniz scored with a clinical finish and stole all three points from Chelsea away from home. The game ended 1-2.

What a magnificent comeback from Fulham in the second half. Football is indeed full of surprises and i can't imagine that Chelsea lost this game to Fulham just almost close to the final whistle. Chelsea's defense needs to do better because if they had controlled the defense very well Fulham wouldn't have gotten the chance to score goals. This lose will really affect Chelsea because if Liverpool wins Leicester city this night that means they will be topping Chelsea with 7 points and they still have outstanding game which if they win the gap will increase to 10 points. Chelsea played well in the first half but the second half became tough for them and they couldn't score which Fulham began to show greater strength and got the shocking winning that surprised everyone. I think the greatest highlight of today's game is this match between Chelsea and Fulham.

With Chelsea's amazing performance this season and the lead they had against Fulham in the first half, I didn't believe Fulham would come from behind and beat Chelsea in the second half. Indeed, football is full of surprises because most football fans didn't believe Fulham could cause an upset in the second half. Even though Liverpool beat Leicester this night, this loss will not affect Chelsea in the Premier League title race because Chelsea's head coach made it very clear that Chelsea is not in the Premier League title race. What Chelsea just needs is to finish in the top four of the Premier League table, which will allow them to qualify for the UEFA Champions League competition next season.

Liverpool vs Leicester City

Liverpool: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Jones, Mac Allister; Salah, Gakpo, Nunez
Substitutes: Kelleher, Quansah, Tsimikas, Endo, Szoboszlai, Elliott, Chiesa, Jota, Diaz

Leicester: Stolarczyk; Justin, Coady, Vestergaard, Kristiansen; Soumare, Winks; El Khannous, Ayew, Mavididi; Daka
Substitutes: Iversen, Okoli, Thomas, Choudhury, Skipp, Alves, Buonanotte, Decordova-Reid, Edouard

We have Witnessed many unexpected results with today's match but I don't expect anything strange in this match, Leicester are in a bad shape now and I don't think they can be able to bring out any surprise results with their current form. Liverpool are at the top and they will not want to jeopardise this opportunity because many teams considered Leicester as a free gate way to earn three points easily.

[yudi09]

Becoming champions at the end of the season has been included in the strengthened plan. Yes, we really want that to really happen without any obstacles so that from 19 to 20 trophies.
Leicester City is not an easy opponent for us to beat, even though in the matches we have played, we have been able to get maximum results according to the target. Leicester City is currently different thanks to Ruud van Nistelrooy. The target of winning or 3 points is the main target against Leicester City.
If you dare, place a bet on Liverpool's victory.

Leicester City have taken a good start from the beginning under the leadership of Ruud van Nistelrooy, but his impact really affected them positively and I know they will be far from the relegation zone before the season run out. Regarding their next match against Liverpool, it not going to be easy for Leicester City if they want to secure victory and I don't see that strength in them despite under the leadership of Ruud van Nistelrooy, their last two matches make me lose confidence in them against Liverpool and the funny part they are playing an away game. Liverpool are currently leading the table with 39 points and they only have one defeat since the starting of the season.

It will be difficult for Liverpool to win. I would imagine that Nistelrooy's vision to make Leicester City stronger since he became the coach after Manchester United chose another coach.
For Leicester, winning will take them out of the relegation zone because Wolverhampton just beat Manchester United. So, Lsicester will be very challenged to beat Liverpool The problem is this match is at Anfield, a draw could be a very profitable result for them.

[LGD2Business]

It didn't happen again. Manchester City failed to win again. I've never seen such a fast and long collapse in my life. You embargo the league for years, then you start very well again and suddenly you have such a bad series. I see a problem with the players now, a big psychological problem. The players are not playing on purpose. A team that has been playing so well for years cannot suddenly turn 180 degrees. Injured and missing players cannot be an excuse for this. How many games in a row they can't win, this can't be a coincidence. Something else is going on inside the club.

[Pokapoka124]

Even Manchester United’s fans can now see that the coach is not really Manchester United’s problem, and no matter the amounts of coaches they bring to the club, there won’t really be much difference in the club's performance. From the pattern which Ruben Amorim is playing, everyone can see that he is a talented coach, just that the pattern that he is trying to use, Manchester United players are not used to it, or should I say can’t adapt to the pattern, so I will say he will have to bring in his own players that can play the pattern that he wants.

When the transfer window is open, then Ruben Amorim will be signing some new players, and from the way things are going, then lots of players will be leaving the club. If Ruben Amorim doesn’t sign some players, then he will end up being sacked just the same way other coaches are sacked.

I don’t really know what’s wrong with most of the players in Manchester United currently, I just feel like they are not really ready to play with the club, or maybe they are having internal problem that people don’t really know about. I just hope Ruben Amorim will be able to get things right because Manchester United has stayed so long in their current position, and Manchester United fans are really impatient, they will start complaining about Ruben Amorim if he doesn’t fix the club’s problem as soon as possible.

Yes, you are absolutely right. The problem of the club is not solely down to the coach but also comes from the players. A lack of commitment, poor discipline and inconsistent performance on the pitch have highlighted deeper issues within the squad. Manchester United lacks a winners mentality, this has made it difficult for any coach to implement their philosophy effectively. Until the players takes responsibility and show more passion and professionalism the club will struggle to return to its former glory, regardless of who manages the team.

Fulham played well in this 1-2 win they had over Chelsea. Their pattern of play works out for them by giving them the anticipated win. I never believed this could happen, for Chelsea to lose in their home when the plan was to get closer to Liverpool.

Well, Chelsea's top position is still retained. But the zealousness and control I have seen Chelsea have in their few matches, I don't see it any longer. They lose total control of their today's match, giving Fulham the upper hand in scoring against them

Liverpool vs Leicester City

Liverpool: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Jones, Mac Allister; Salah, Gakpo, Nunez

Liverpool are at the top and they will not want to jeopardise this opportunity because many teams considered Leicester as a free gate way to earn three points easily.

Today's game will be an easy game for Liverpool because Leicester don't have any key players that they can use and challenge Liverpool in the game, and I'm sure that Liverpool will automatically get three points clear tonight, nothing will stop that. Chelsea lost against Fulham, what a poor performance for Chelsea in the second half, they didn't perform like the first half of the game, so Liverpool will get three points and give Chelsea a bigger gap in the league table, and Liverpool have upstanding games to play and they are still leading the premier league table already.

Let's see how Leicester will be defeated tonight. With that big odds, you'll know that Leicester can't compete with Liverpool, plus they're playing at home, therefore nothing will prevent Liverpool from winning. Manchester City is still performing poorly in the league competition. I believe Manchester City will be unable to compete this season since their game has not improved, and they are still playing like they used to, losing back-to-back in all tournaments.

[thunderbolt67]

That Man United v. Wolves game... My goodness. These players are terrible, also terrible substitutions from Amorim. This club needs a major, major rebuild. Wow.

~~ Snip ~~

Premier League matches are difficult to predict even though we can easily say which team is the favorite, but the reality is not like that there are many surprises on this Boxing Day.

The losers today:
Manchester City - Lost
Chelsea - Lost
Manchester United - Lost.

There are still other big teams that might win Liverpool and Arsenal.

Manchester United have failed again to win in today’s match and have been defeated by Wolves. The coming of the new coach is just not encouraging yet because when rated in all games he has played in, he’s not doing what is expected of him and fans may begin to lose interest in him. What baffles people more is that he was doing very well in his former team before coming here and till now, he hasn’t been able to replicate same thing in Manchester United.

Chelsea loss today was surprising though, we have seen how good they have been playing over the past matches they were playing and it’s something of shock to lose today to Fulham even after getting the first goal. Premier league is very unpredictable and results like this should not be coming something of shock again.
Manchester City didn’t lose but drew their match today and they haven’t gotten any win in their most recent matches.

Personally, I didn't expect Man United to lose again. Wolves capitalized on their numerical advantage very well in the second half after Bruno Fernandes received a red card. Now Man United has become a mid-table club, that's right Amorim seems likely to fail to meet fan expectations.

On the other hand, Chelsea wasted an opportunity to catch up with Liverpool at the top of the table. I also didn't expect Fulham to be able to beat a rising Chelsea side. It seems many bettors suffered losses in Chelsea match today.

Regarding Man City, despite the draw, Pep Guardiola managed to bring his team to end their losing streak. It's not easy to regain confidence, sharing points is not a bad thing considering their current condition which is experiencing rapid decline.

[Issa56]

It will be difficult for Liverpool to win. I would imagine that Nistelrooy's vision to make Leicester City stronger since he became the coach after Manchester United chose another coach.

Why do you think it’s going to be difficult for Liverpool to win? I know Leicester City is having a new coach, but that won’t stop Liverpool from winning the match. I know Ruud van Nistelrooy is a talented coach and will do everything to improve Leicester City’s performance, but it's going to take some time to fix things in the club, and the kind of players that Liverpool is having and the mentality that they are having, then Leicester City won’t be able to stop Liverpool from getting a win in the match.

I'm even expecting the match to be an easy win for Liverpool because they will do everything possible to increase their points difference between them and Chelsea, which is currently in second position. Liverpool can’t afford to lose or draw the match.

Liverpool are at the top and they will not want to jeopardise this opportunity because many teams considered Leicester as a free gate way to earn three points easily.

With all the surprise results in the Premier League today, Liverpool will take their match with Leicester very seriously so that they will capitalize on the bad results in the Premier League today, which will allow them to lead the Premier League table with a big point difference and stand in a better place of winning this season's Premier League title. I know football is unpredictable, but I don't see Leicester as a club that can travel to Anfield and beat Liverpool this night.

[Leviathan.007]

I can't understand how Chelsea managed to lose to Fulham. Under Maresca, the team looks good and creates chances, but there was clearly some nerves when the score was 1-0. Sanchez delivered a precise pass, but it felt too tense. It's a young squad, and there will be more losses like this in the future. As for Fulham, they're in excellent form, especially against top Premier League teams. In December, they took points off Tottenham, Arsenal, and Liverpool, and now they've done it against Chelsea as well.

Liverpool is now happy after Chelsea lost points to Fulham because they were in a race with Liverpool and now the gap between Chelsea and Liverpool is high enough to make Slot sure about the end of the season now.
However, it was unexpected for anyone to see a team like Chelsea lose points to Fulham. Even now Arsenal has gotten closer to them and the gap between Chelsea and Arsenal is just two points.

[snipie]

Odd for Liverpool to win is 1.08 vs Leicester City at 25, I would like to imagine what will happen if something bad happens for Liverpool in this match
Everton @7.4 to win and @3.25 to win or draw, I don't know if it worth taking the risk and play on the failure of Manchester City these days..
Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa games might be interesting in terms of rewards for these chasing a risky adventure

Betting on Manchester City is very risky these days because even a small team no one is sure that Manchester City can defeat now, Manchester City has lost many games that people can imagine, even games that people believe Manchester City could win Manchester City lost the match, All Manchester City are not in good shape and from my observation they don't have a winning mentality currently, the only way to win if you want to bet on Manchester City game is to bet on both teams to score.

Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea are the ones I expect to win their games and even the Manchester United match is still a doubt because sometimes Manchester United players are not serious, Chelsea and Liverpool can do better than any team that plays today because they are in good shape and they always find a way to win their games, so betting on today matches, someone needs to be careful.

I am a bit sceptical about English Premier League these days and here we go with the surprise no surprise for Manchester City, they failed to win indeed and just got a draw against Everton which is very sad. I wonder know how much their failures cost bookies this season alone, happy the ones betting against them!
Now it is Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United that failed to win or even get a draw which is quite shocking especially for Chelsea! Who would expect that!
Ironically too, Liverpool is one goal behind of Leicester City.. Well there is enough time for them to recover

[Swordsoffreedom]

I bet on Liverpool to win. The chances of Liverpool losing points in this home match were very low. The opponent Leicester City is a very weak team. This team is very close to the relegation zone. And Leicester City can fall into the relegation zone at any time. It is unimaginable that a strong Liverpool team will lose points against such a team.

Leicester City has been playing attacking since the beginning of the match. I thought Leicester City would play defensively and try to draw the match. But Leicester City players have launched several strong attacks since the beginning of the match. And in just 6 minutes of the match, Leicester City got the lead through Jordan Ayew's goal. Liverpool team is now 1-0 behind. However, Liverpool will not want to lose against a weak team like Leicester in today's home match. Liverpool players will try to win until the last second of the match.

[Felicity_Tide]

Fulham played well in this 1-2 win they had over Chelsea. Their pattern of play works out for them by giving them the anticipated win. I never believed this could happen, for Chelsea to lose in their home when the plan was to get closer to Liverpool.

Well, Chelsea's top position is still retained. But the zealousness and control I have seen Chelsea have in their few matches, I don't see it any longer. They lose total control of their today's match, giving Fulham the upper hand in scoring against them

When Fulham and Everton drew to Arsenal few weeks back, we all thought Arsenal was just a team that couldn't penetrate their defence, but after today's game, it clearly shows that teams that plays a low-block kind of football, can be very dramatic and irritating. I never saw this Chelsea loss coming. A team that has been very good this season, losing to a fulham side. A draw would have been fine, but they lost all 3 points, thereby giving Liverpool a breathing space.

Now, as it stands, they've given Arsenal the opportunity to climb past them on the table, because Arsenal will be playing tomorrow, and trust me, I don't think arsenal will want to let such opportunity slip through their hands.

And as for Manchester united, it seems they are still very much in their poor season, as they still lost today. Though I didn't watch game early, but I tuned in the 90th minute. United tried getting an equalizer at the late hour, with a man down, only to end up conceding a late goal, after wolves where left with two attacking players against the united goalkeeper. What a terrible day for both sides of Manchester, especially the reds.

[Akbarkoe]

It will be difficult for Liverpool to win. I would imagine that Nistelrooy's vision to make Leicester City stronger since he became the coach after Manchester United chose another coach.

Why do you think it’s going to be difficult for Liverpool to win? I know Leicester City is having a new coach, but that won’t stop Liverpool from winning the match. I know Ruud van Nistelrooy is a talented coach and will do everything to improve Leicester City’s performance, but it's going to take some time to fix things in the club, and the kind of players that Liverpool is having and the mentality that they are having, then Leicester City won’t be able to stop Liverpool from getting a win in the match.

I'm even expecting the match to be an easy win for Liverpool because they will do everything possible to increase their points difference between them and Chelsea, which is currently in second position. Liverpool can’t afford to lose or draw the match.

Before the match started, Arne Slot once said that despite facing a team with a lower ranking, Leicester City is not a team that can be taken lightly. This will not be an easy match for Liverpool to win, because even though they are at the bottom of the standings, Leicester City is sometimes a team that is quite troublesome. and sure enough after the match between Leicester City and Liverpool, Leicester was able to take the lead over Liverpool, Leicester managed to score a goal in the 6th minute. and now the match has entered the 20th minute, let's see what Liverpool will do to overcome the pressure.

[imamusma]

Nottingham Forest is now a team to be reckoned with in the top four of the standings, beyond predictions they managed to beat Tottenham with a narrow score today. If they are able to maintain consistency until the end of the season, Nottingham Forest has the opportunity to appear in the Champions League next season. With 34 points, they are now ranked third in the standings, but will most likely be overtaken again by Arsenal tomorrow.

[Churchillvv]

Today in the premier League is very much unexpected, every strong teams is lossing to the underdogs. I think today is one of those days that we do talk about in the premier League when every team shocks every one of use with either stronger performance or weaknesses. I certainly do not expect to see Chelsea loss but now it's up to Liverpool to win but from the pressure they are facing I'm not really sure they are coming out of it with a win expect the good days finds them.

[Smack That Ace]

I bet on Liverpool to win. The chances of Liverpool losing points in this home match were very low. The opponent Leicester City is a very weak team. This team is very close to the relegation zone. And Leicester City can fall into the relegation zone at any time. It is unimaginable that a strong Liverpool team will lose points against such a team.

But Leicester City players have launched several strong attacks since the beginning of the match. And in just 6 minutes of the match, Leicester City got the lead through Jordan Ayew's goal. Liverpool team is now 1-0 behind. However, Liverpool will not want to lose against a weak team like Leicester in today's home match. Liverpool players will try to win until the last second of the match.

To be honest, Liverpool's defenders were not at all prepared for such an attack by Leicester City. Leicester City is a weak team. And their attack is also relatively weak. So naturally Liverpool thought that Leicester City would play defensively in this match. But Leicester City was able to score a goal in just 6 minutes of the match. And probably now in the first half, Leicester City will focus on strengthening their defense. And they will try their best to end the first half 1-0.

Liverpool's players are still not able to score a goal in the 30th minute. Liverpool has 72% ball possession. So far, Liverpool's players have been able to make 7 shots. Even then, the team has not been able to score a single goal. Liverpool will have to try to end the first half 1-1. Otherwise, Liverpool's players will be under a lot of pressure in the second half.
