Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

[Captain Corporate]

While I agree that its definitely Liverpools league at the moment, there are many other positions that could flip as well. Plus the incredible compact schedule of premier league makes it open to any changes as well, like Liverpool played on Thursday, and will play on Sunday, those two are very close, and during the Christmas period too, which makes it hard for players to get wins or relax or rest. I would assume that we are going to see other teams have some changes, like some will get more difficulty winning the games for sure. I believe things aren't always that simple, so betting on the games isn't that easy, not this week at least, we are seeing way too many close games to call.

[|MINER|]

This match is should be a easy match for Arsenal if everything go according to plan for them except a miracle happens before we can see a surprising results from this game
Arsenal can't afford to gamble this game because with Chelsea dropping points yesterday the ball is in arsenal court to capitalize and win this game so they can close in the gap between them and Chelsea and if possible overtake them to move second place

According to my expectations, this match should have been super easy for the Arsenal team and I was also hoping for at least three scores from the Arsenal. I did not expect the match to end with just a 1-0 score. Anyway, at least they won the match, but they had a few good shots on target, but Ipswich Town's goalkeeper made a great save.

Anyway, Arsenal will have to win all their matches because they only have a 6-point gap to Liverpool. And if Liverpool loses to any other team, it will be easier for them to top the Premier League.

Today Arsenal played its 18th match and the first half has passed with Arsenal  lead 1 goal, there is a possibility that Arsenal will score a few more goals in the second half because they dominate from all sides whereas Ipswich Town cannot make any efforts because 45 minutes without a shot. With addition of these 3 points, Arsenal will rise to the 2nd position of the standings but Arsenal are still far behind Liverpool with 6 points adrift and this is not included in Liverpool's 18th match which will be played on December 30.

And we seems to be going gradually and more surprised seems to be coming because of how we have been trying to maintain consistency this season and even if our opponents seems to be tough I feel the chances we have was good enough to get more goals but they stopped at one goal and at some point people are now realizing that buy havarts was never a mistake because multiple times that boy have given us goals with good support and when he started I was not enjoying the pattern of his game because he was actually as if he was scared of making mistakes and it was not helping issues at all. And arsenal is already at the second position so there is still hope for us winces games are still there ti play and the only thing now is for Liverpool to fail.

In other matches Brighton does not seem to be able to take advantage of opportunities while playing at home, 75 minutes of the match passed without a goal even though they played aggressive with 19 shots yeah Brighton needs luck to get 3 points. By the way, I lost here because I place a bet on both teams to score.

Brighton against brentford did not score any goal and they ended the game 0:0 and brentford had more chances to play and having 19 shots does not really count the only thing that counts is not more than goals so the shots are just for the record and there was no three point today and people whould have placed a bet majority moght not even think about draw.

If it was for Arsenal to win the match, I already knew that Arsenal would have to win the match tonight but I thought that Arsenal would be able to score up to three goals in this match thereby making the match to have over 2.5 goals outcome. Earlier in this thread I had encouraged someone not to cash out his bet slip which only remained Arsenal Vs Ipswich Town over 2.5 goals. I am surprised Arsenal found it difficult to score goals. Someone had advised that the absence of Saka will limit Arsenal's chances of scoring, but I had believed that with the good form of Jesus, Arsenal will cope without Saka. Anyways, they are lucky they won.

[Sadoq]

Stay away from Man City matches Especially in 2025 . ( it is not betting recommendation )

[letteredhub]

Arsenal has now moved to the 2nd position on the EPL table after winning Ipswich by a 1 goal to nil, an early goal from Kai H. Though as someone that watched the game from start to finish I wasn't impressed by the scoreline for a game that was greatly dominated by Arsenal in both halves of the game having much shots on goal but couldn't convert many of the chances to goals. Going with the result 1:0 it's okay to say it was a narrow win because if Arsenal had played a better opponent tonight then this game would have ended in a draw and I think Arteta should press on his boys on the need to convert almost every available chances to goal because at the end that's what matters the most in today's football.

Anyways, they are lucky they won.

I also thought as much especially after seeing Arsenal scored dearly in the match, but the absence of Bulayo Saka has effect in their performance as they couldn’t create a lot of chances from his position despite the dominance Arsenal have in this match.
However, the three points is the main important thing Arsenal need, they really tried to hold on the game till the end and they have finally gone back to the second position in the Premier League table with six points below Liverpool.
Arsenal is back on the title race, if they can be consistent, they might be luck if Liverpool drop some points.

As far as the English Premier League title is concerned, I don't think there's any team that'll be able to stop Liverpool from lifting the title at the end of the season. Liverpool's form this season is second to none and unless the club is hit by numerous injury cases on the first team players, it's very unlikely for Arne Slot not to win the league in his first season at the club.
The other positions of the league that I think are up for contention is the other three points of the top four especially the fourth position which I don't think Nottingham Forest who currently occupy it will be able to maintain the position till the end of the season

I hope the person you gave advice to still listens to your advice next time.  I have always known arsenal to be the inconsistent type. When we need them to score many goals, they won't, but they choose to hammer their opponents when we don't expect. I actually watched the game, but later became bored at some point. Martinelli on the right wing is never a good idea. Havertz upfront as a 9 is not aggressive enough. He scored the winning goal, fine, but what about other little missed passes, because he just doesn't have that agility of a top striker.

They are currently seating at number 2 on the table, but the truth is, they need to get in fresh legs. New signings will definitely help this team if they truly want to compete with Liverpool for the title. Just imagine making two subs because of the lack of quality in the team. They need that quality squad depth to compete. Saka will be out for a long time, so if the club fails to do the needful, then it's clearly their fault.

Arsenal must play seriously against Ipswich, indeed above all The Gunner is superior but that does not mean they can underestimate Ipswich who are in the relegation position. Even Ipswich can play very hard and recklessly if necessary because that is the only option to find an advantage. I often see Arsenal play badly when their players are pulled to play rough by the opponent and the result is where Arsenal players are lured out of their game plan.

The Gunners might misuse this opportunity of winning the game and changing their position to second on the log, Chelsea failed to continue putting pressure on Liverpool and now we have the Gunners to try their best to be number that's if Liverpool starts dropping points. Arteta is the one holding these guys from becoming champions, said this because he hasn't been looking forward to get a proper number 9 but he chose to play every game with a false 9 and I don't know if he wants to try all the styles he saw Pep Guardiola used when he was assisting him. Now that the Gunners are without Saka I feel this is going to be another hard game for Arsenal and there won't be much goals and the pressing also won't be their for the Gunners.

We have Arsenal not good as we have them in last two seasons they are facing troubling time now with the absence of Saka things could be more problematic as they were held by Everton at home now they are going to revive their performance in this game and have good chance of jumping at the second spot which they deserved, but it's needed more effort from them with better dedication because now situation is going to be not easy for them if they fail to give their best then surely consequences could be not good for them.

Chelsea drop 5 points in last two games, so this is good chance for Gunners to have brought themselves near leaders Liverpool and bring some tough competition for title race which is surely going to be good in next few rounds through all are doing good for keeping into good spots.

We are used to seeing the Gunners not getting the job done when it matters but tonight's game shows that they're not complete, the absence of Saka was felt in that attacking line and you can see that Martinelli wasn't as effective as when they have Saka on the squad. I don't think the Gunners planned on put more pressure on this encounter against the Ipswich side. If Arsenal had lost to Everton it would have been a bigger problem because we would have been counting 9pt between the league leaders and the Arsenal side, is a step up for Arsenal for getting 3pt from Ipswich tonight but let's see how the next game goes before the end of 2024.
For Chelsea what happened to them came as a big surprise and up till this moment Enzo Maresca could not believe it, we know he has been saying they're not in the title race and I wish they slip off the top 4 and start struggling to get back up that's when he'll come out to say the Blues have a chance to compete for the title.

[Pokapoka124]

Arsenal will lost Bukayo Saka because hamstring injury and according to Arsenal medical team he will absense until March next year i think this is big lost for Arsenal because Bukayo Saka is very important for the team and today Arsenal will fight against Ipswich and this should be an easy match for them because Ipswich is only the team from relegation zone and Ipswich too this season is very often to lost but just like i said above that Arsenal will lost their important player and i am sure this will have an effect to their performance for next few matches including today so let see it later whether Arsenal can win from Ipswich today without Saka or they will be failed to do that

I don't think Arsenal will struggle to perform effectively in their match against a struggling side like Ipswich. Even with Saka’s injury, Arsenal still has a strong squad and quality of players. Luckily for them, the transfer window is fast approaching, Arteta will have the opportunity to bring in a replacement for their injured star.

Arsenal ended today's match by winning 3 points, a narrow victory because the final result was 1-0 for Arsenal's victory in front of their loyal supporters who filled the Emirates stadium.
This victory made Arsenal rise to 2nd place in the standings by overtaking Nottingham Forest and also Chelsea.

Arsenal must be able to maintain themselves by performing better because they have failed twice in the previous season in the fight for the championship title so this season they must focus as best they can.

Arteta also praised the performance of his players, he considered his players had found their best form by successfully rising to 2nd place in the standings.

It doesn’t matter in the end how many goals they were able to score to secure the victory, what matters most was the victory. Ipswich Town were no match to Arsenal in terms of quality and gameplay coordination in the field. I see that they’re also trying hard to retain their position in the premier league and not end the season been relegated. But when playing against teams like Arsenal, they will just wish to have a draw instead of losing because they know they can’t get a win in such matches. I really like the fact that Arsenal are still on the title race and are not ready to give up yet for this fight. They need to utilize more of their chances by scoring more goals because that will help them in the long run when things gets better for them as they approach the end of the season.

I didn't expect this game to be pretty easy for Arsenal though expected them to concede goal(s) but scored more than one and also maybe get a win. Saka injury will affect them especially against big teams expect they sign another winger because Sterling likely can't replace him for the main time but this will depend if Arteta actually do agree to strengthen his squad because he really needs to, after all the injuries crisis they have faced this season but I don't think he may do that, not ignoring the fact that they may go for a more consistent nine than Gabriel Jesus.

[len01]

A very good win for Arsenal, but a little disappointed because when playing against a much weaker team, Arsenal were only able to score 1 goal which looked like a struggle. And if all this is caused by the absence of Bukayo Saka, I am sure Arsenal still relies too much on that player and must immediately find a player who is equal to Bukayo Saka. Otherwise, Arsenal will experience unstable consistency in every match in any competition. With results like this I know more that apart from Liverpool, several other top teams are experiencing a decline in consistency.

Arsenal's victory over Ipswich Town F.C. was indeed as expected, getting 3 points and bringing them to the top 2 of the EPL. but indeed in this match, it was actually expected to be more than 1 goal, judging from the number of shots, there were still many missed chances. and indeed, Saka's influence at the club is very high. unfortunately and this is a deep concern, Saka is injured and must be absent for a fairly long period of time, maybe a few months.

Well, get well recovery for him, however, Saka remains one of the key players for Arsenal, and his various words also provide high motivation for the squad.

Arsenal won with a goal by Havertz. Trossard made a great assist. We all expected them to score more goals against Ipswich Town but one goal was enough for them to get 3 points. I think the only thing Arsenal needs to do now is to collect the 3 points. It doesn't matter how they play and how many goals they score as long as they win. With the other teams dropping points, Arsenal moved back up to second place and continued their close pursuit of Liverpool. They will travel to Brentford on the first day of the new year. They must win that game as well.

I honestly expected lots of goals in this match and just dissapointed that there was only one and Arsenal later on didnt even want to score and also Ipswich was satisfied with the one goal loss and we didnt get the game we wanted to. Arsenal got a win to boost them up and was enough

[Stepstowealth]

They must win that game as well.

I think i that game, we will have Caliofori back to defensive duty for Arsenal ahead of Myles Lewis-Skelly. Mbuemo and Wissa are two very dangerous players for Brentford and Arsenal need to seriously play to contain them. Starting the year with a win will be good for Arsenal to become more positive about the year. Arsenal struggled today to score since Saka was injured, they need to make sure that does not continue because one goal will not always be enough to win games, and they cannot assure a clean sheet.

My bets were disappointing this week, Chelsea, Man Utd ruined my holiday. The only one that worked was the Liverpool match, probably most bettors had the same fate.

In that match I didn't expect what Fulham showed, as a mid-table team their performance was extraordinary so they were able to beat Chelsea with a score of 2-1 as the away team.
There were many surprises this week, the top teams had bad luck.

Manchester City, Aston Villa, Tottenham, Chelsea and Manchester United basically disappointed many parties, including gamblers. The results of each match did not match expectations and this has made many gamblers lose their money this week. It's unpleasant to lose money on a match where the team you choose loses or loses points, but it's a consequence that gamblers must be fully aware of.

Only Liverpool was truly able to maintain its good performance, while many other top teams failed. Manchester City is indeed in its worst form, but what was more disappointing was Manchester United's defeat to Wolves.

In a season, there are a few bad weeks that are obviously bad that you cannot do anything about it than being a victim. I think this is part of the week. I remember when I was active in sports betting, this type of thing happens across the Europe . You'll see Bayern lost in Germany;
Real or Barcelona losses in Spain;
Manchester United or Chelsea lose in England. No matter how careful the gambler is ,they must fail victim.
