Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

[punk.zink]

One match left Liverpool will face Everton it is quite difficult to say 3 points will be easy for Arne Slot troops considering Everton can always provide resistance to strong teams, but before that in the next match Liverpool will host Man Utd, I think for this match the final result is already visible, or I mean full points will be secured by Liverpool. If the prediction is correct, of course Liverpool position at the top will be more comfortable, and I think the current competitiveness of the English league does not apply to the Reds with their current performance there is no other team that can catch up including Arsenal.

What you probably mean is Nottingham Forest, because after the match against Man United, Liverpool will play away against Nottingham Forest. While Everton has to play against Bournemouth and after that, they will play against Aston Villa.

I am pretty sure that Liverpool will get the win against Man United because they will be playing at home and there is a big difference in performance between the two teams (Man United is really in bad shape at the moment). While the match against Nottingham Forest could be a tough one because Liverpool will play as guests and their opponents are also on fire.

A 6-point advantage over Arsenal means Liverpool can continue to maintain the top of the standings without pressure, especially since that number could increase if they manage to win one remaining match. After Chelsea lost two games in a row, Arsenal has now taken over second place and become the team that will give Liverpool competition. But the problem is that Arsenal always slip up every now and then, when they are close to achieving their goals, they always lose important points and that is a fact that has happened in the last two seasons.

The position occupied by Arsenal at this time can still be disturbed by Nottingham Forest and Chelsea because Arsenal's level of consistency in maintaining its own position is still unstable so there is a possibility for Chelsea and Nottingham Forest to take that position because I don't imagine that the three teams can catch up with Liverpool who are already known to be quite strong this season in the Premier League. So Arsenal still has to be more careful with Chelsea and Nottingham Forest in the second half of this season.

Manchester United performance this season is nothing short of embarrassment and have brought shame to those that support the club. Once a dreaded team in the Premier League has become a team of ridicule with their constant shambolic display making it easy for teams that are far below their standard to win matches even at Old Trafford easily. I have hope that Ruben Amorim is the one that’s going to turn the tide at Old Trafford and bring Manchester United back to glory days. He is a good coach with an impressive record, I think he should be given more time to work on the team.

Loosing too many games at old Trafford was and still is one of the most terrible performance this, it even feels like they have lost more than they have won at old Trafford this season. it now feels like signing of a new coach actually isn't helping, the fact really is that they have a fundamental problem and not one that should have to do with firing and hiring of coach, if the board will allow the coaches hire the kind of players they want without  interfering at any point

Manchester United management hasn't really been imposing players on Manchester managers. They always allow their managers to make the list of player they want. I don't know Manchester United management as people who usually impose players on their coaches, right from the era of Alex Ferguson that I started following Manchester United. Let's take Ten Hag for example, he was backed up with funds to get whatever players he wants in his team and he got them. Chelsea are the only team I know in the premier League that usually impose players on their manager. Manchester United problem seems to be spiritual because they have gotten lots of players and managers yet nothing seems to be working.

There's nothing spiritual about it, and the players that Manchester United have will not be able to make any difference to the club performance, if Amorim did not bring in his choice of players. Amorim said, he cannot wait for the transfer window to open this January so that he can get the players that can give him his desired results. Ten Hag has the chance to get players of his choice, but they disappointed him.

Is not like Liverpool need to use this point gap as the guarantee of winning the league,, fine they have a game at hand but can they utilize it? Nobody knows when Slot will lose. I still feel they have more challenges ahead of them even the Gunners too. I believe the title race is between Liverpool and Arsenal and as for Chelsea I don't think they can continue challenging for the title and we might be seeing the other side of them (performing poorly) since they have lost straight two games. If I'm Arteta I won't rely on any team to win before we have to win the league title this time around, like you said they have to be serious and convert any little chances they have, this is not the time to be wasting opportunities like before.

A 6-point advantage over Arsenal means Liverpool can continue to maintain the top of the standings without pressure, especially since that number could increase if they manage to win one remaining match. After Chelsea lost two games in a row, Arsenal has now taken over second place and become the team that will give Liverpool competition. But the problem is that Arsenal always slip up every now and then, when they are close to achieving their goals, they always lose important points and that is a fact that has happened in the last two seasons.

Don't forget that Liverpool have one more game in reserve, so if Liverpool win the next game, Arsenal will be 9 points behind, besides Nottingham are only 2 points behind Arsenal, but nevertheless I agree that Arsenal are probably Liverpool's main competitor now despite Nottingham's success, Arsenal have more quality players, besides Nottingham Forest's game is heavily dependent on Chris Wood and his injury can immediately worsen Nottingham's position.

The last game Arsenal against Brentford was very good and despite conceding a goal, confidently brought the game to victory, but even more surprised Gabriel Jesus, who has already scored 6 goals in the last 4 games for Arsenal and apparently decided to restart his career.

[Catenaccio]

What you probably mean is Nottingham Forest, because after the match against Man United, Liverpool will play away against Nottingham Forest. While Everton has to play against Bournemouth and after that, they will play against Aston Villa.

Nottingham Forest can fight with each match and enjoy this season like Girona in La Liga last season. They are both small clubs with limited resources but they play well and inconsistencies of some big clubs bring opportunities to Nottingham Forest.

There are many matches in another half of season and Nottingham Forest has a lot of things to finish this season in top four, which is their big dream but it's not easy to achieve.

I am pretty sure that Liverpool will get the win against Man United because they will be playing at home and there is a big difference in performance between the two teams (Man United is really in bad shape at the moment). While the match against Nottingham Forest could be a tough one because Liverpool will play as guests and their opponents are also on fire.

In this season, Liverpool are stronger than Manchester United and even stronger is not enough to say about difference between two clubs. Manchester United have star players and can make a surprising match but normally this would be a win for Liverpool. Chance for Manchester United to make a surprise against Liverpool is very small, and it can be big defeat for them.

Liverpool is more consistent in the English premier league compare to any other team I believe this season English premier league tittle belongs to Liverpool the only team that would have been a threat to Liverpool is Manchester City but since they have been performing poorly it has given Liverpool an advantage to win the league though there are still more games ahead but I don't think any team can stop Liverpool, am not even seeing Arsenal as Liverpool main competitor but Nottingham Forest who has shocked people with their performance this season winning almost all the big team apart from Manchester City that won them, Nottingham Forest shouldn't be underrated as I see them finishing above Arsenal this season.

Arsenal performance against Brentford yesterday shows how dedicated they are to compete with Liverpool for the tittle race but there inconsistency will also show up during the ending part of the season as they may start losing unnecessary games at the dying minutes of the league.

A lot of chaos happening at Man United is scary for coach Ruben Amorin because he cannot make the club better in addition to the news they do not have the funds to buy players in this transfer.

This weekend Man United have to go to Anfield where Liverpool are fierce at home, how do you believe Man United will win? I think there will be many people skeptical about it.

Looking at the Liverpool vs Man United match odds where Man United odds @9.80 who dares to take the betting odds?
Maybe only diehard fans will take those odds.

Of course Liverpool who are at the peak of their performance will not let the red devils take control at Anfield, especially since the two elite English teams also often do psychological warfare outside the field among their fans. The Reds also have a big mission to be able to secure three points to get away from their closest competitors in order to seal their 20th title this season which of course will match Manchester United's achievement.

So I think whoever you are certainly will not dare to bet on United because the team is really very weak at the moment.

Been broke as club like Manchester United is not real, if they have the money to accommodate Amorim and his crew, they are definitely down to pay up any new player he brings to the team, you can't sign me as a new coach and you will say you are broke unless they want him to suffer in the hands of these players that are not serious. If this is true, he is going to be mass selling the ones in the team especially the ones he has bench recently and not used frequently.


To be honest, this odd are temping. My mind is telling me to risk what I can lose on Manchester United and pick Liverpool as straight win on my normal game but, the bookies are not foolish, they know Manchester United can't defeat Liverpool in their home, no way. Even draw is not something close not to talk of winning but it's really tempting I must say.

[Webetcoins]

Manchester City's performance has been awful in the Premier League this season and seeing them win at home over Leicester City and didn't concede any goal will surely be a sign of relief to the fans and manager. I believe Manchester City will be able to build on this momentum to be able to return back to winning ways in the new year. Manchester City still remains a top team and they can turn their bad season around and return back to winning ways.

Yeah, last three months terrible for the Manchester City and their fans due to their worst every performance in all competitions with they have 14 games won only 2 and have 3 draws with 9 defeats clearly saying all about them but as they have good timely win last game of 2024 now we can expect things could be on positive for them because now if they fail then surely we will be having nightmare for them and Pepe Guardiola could be in deep trouble even though his job is secure but now it's right time for having changes.

Now, upcoming four games are looking easy for them with their rivals are not strong enough which will surely give them rhythm, and they could be also able to increase their confidence level which will help them for having wins against big teams specially while they could be in Paris for their biggest challenge and having spot into next round of Champions League.

At this moment, I can't say that any surprise result may come out from Manchester United's match against Liverpool. Despite knowing that anything can happen in football, with this Manchester United form, even if Liverpool received a red card, I can still say Manchester United can win against Liverpool at Anfield. Liverpool are currently in great form, not only in the Premier League but also in other competitions.

One thing again is that I am not surprised by the odds given to Liverpool and Manchester United. In the past, if I wanted to gamble, I would take risks like staking on a high team with high odds. However, for this Manchester United match against Liverpool, I don't have any hope for Manchester United.

There are many matches in another half of season and Nottingham Forest has a lot of things to finish this season in top four, which is their big dream but it's not easy to achieve.

Nottingham Forrest is a small club that haven't tested top for a long time, it not an easy task for them if really they want to make it to the end of the season, for a team to play all 38 matches in a season and still maintain their good form are teams that are strong from the beginning, Nottingham have had a wonderful half  season and they still have a long way to go because there is still chances for Manchester City to bounce back and if they do definitely Nottingham will not find a slot in top four, currently Chelsea and Arsenal are still in form to secure top four slot.

In this season, Liverpool are stronger than Manchester United and even stronger is not enough to say about difference between two clubs. Manchester United have star players and can make a surprising match but normally this would be a win for Liverpool. Chance for Manchester United to make a surprise against Liverpool is very small, and it can be big defeat for them.

I definitely believe you regarding Liverpool's current form, they smashed any teams that comes there way to take lead of the league, No one thought of this wonderful performance they had this season because the way they ended last season was so disappointing. They came back to correct all the mistakes they made in past, and I expect them to even improve more than before after the transfer window.

They are the club that have come to repeat Girona on the premier League and fortunately for them they are doing just that but anything that would make them missed champions League next will remove the Girona mantle from them, however Nottingham Forest is a very courageous club and the only team who have just wake up from there long term sleep in terms of performance, meanwhile i no they are ready for Wolves on the 6 day of January and after the 3 points plus there already 37 point they will have 40 point, so even if Liverpool win them as I believe but they have several other club that will give them back the 3 three point they will loss to Liverpool, so actually the top four is a go for them.

[bitgolden]

If United could get rid of some of these players, and somehow end up getting Olmo because he is now a free agent, then it would really improve the team immensely without a doubt. I know that it is not looking like a possibility because Olmo is already thinking about staying at Barcelona until the end of the season so he can be registered next season, which would be guaranteed, so it would take a lot to convince him. But if they can't get him, they could get someone else, so they should still end up trying to get someone and change the team.

I believe the biggest news is Rashford, he is not looking great and I honestly believe selling Rashford, and maybe even for a good price, would be the key to their future, they could do so much more if they can do that.

[giammangiato]

Well, I think we can say that considering Man City's condition is quite poor at the moment. Even though they managed to win in the last match, namely against Leicester. But still we will continue to doubt them until the next match. But if in the next match Man City also manages to win then I think the crisis could be over and Man City might have a winning trend again who will try to improve their position again in the standings.

Ah, don't forget that the Brentford vs Arsenal match will take place soon. And I think my favorite, Arsenal, will be very favored and I hope Arsenal don't disappoint me today. If Arsenal wins today then Arsenal will return to second place.
If Arsenal fails then Nottingham will stay in second place for a while. And I would really be surprised if Nottingham continues to stay in its current position.

Yes, i am feel very sorry for Manchester City and i dont understand why Pep Guardiola can't understand the problem and therefore solve it.
In this way, in my opinion, the championship is lost for them and they are also risking the Champions League at this point.
A very big crisis it seems.

So I think whoever you are certainly will not dare to bet on United because the team is really very weak at the moment.

Liverpool's record is a testament to how strong they will be and they are at the top of the league which is why they don't have a hard time playing and they win most of the matches and I have them seen the record in which they have won almost all the matches and drawn a few matches, helps to do Betting on Manchester United is itself a losing proposition as anyone who bets will lose because the odds of winning are very low.Manchester United have undermined themselves and made their quality worse, which is why no one is willing to bet on them.  So they should start playing hard and playing well and win the match.

I think one of the main priority of Nothingham Forest in the beginning of this season is to avoid relegation and that aim is already achieved, now their next priority is qualification to any European competition next season though they are consistent in their performance but I feel that top 4 spot would be hard for them clinch rather Europa league because I considered the depth of their squad basically the team had a strong first team squad players like Elanga, Odoi, Aina and Wood are some of their key players and possiblity of being fatigue after playing several matches might cause a dip in form unlike other top clubs like Chelsea, Man City and Arsenal who rotate their players.

[Mayor of ogba]

Maresca must understand the culture of competition in the Premier League because if they make a small mistake then they will be punished by a much weaker team. Now Chelsea is in fourth place in the standings and two consecutive defeats against Fulham and Ipswich must be an important lesson for Chelsea, so that in the next match they do not make the same mistake again.

The Chelsea coach is new in the Premier League, so he made the mistake of looking down on Ipswich simply because that the bottom of the table. Old coaches with experience in the Premier League know that every game is important even though it is obvious that you are going to win it. Chelsea will regret that game, because they were considered title contenders, but a two-game losing streak really puts their position in a lot of doubt, maybe they will qualify for the champions league, but not win the league.

After Chelsea lost to Fulham, I thought Chelsea would beat Ipswich Town to bounce back in the Premier League title race, but I was much surprised to see that Ipswich Town defeated Chelsea easily in the Premier League, and Chelsea couldn't even score a single goal against Ipswich Town. Even though Chelsea's head coach claimed that they are not in the Premier League title race, this defeat they conceded against Ipswich Town has reduced their chance of closing the gap between them and Liverpool in the Premier League table. No doubt with how Chelsea is performing this season, they have a good chance of finishing in the top four of the Premier League table, which will allow them to play in UEFA Champions League competition.

The poor performance experienced by Man City at this time is not only because of the injuries of several key players, but there is another complicated thing behind it all, someone like Pep seems unable to overcome this as if he has run out of ideas. There is no champion mentality shown at this time and indeed this season the hope of defending the title is no longer valid for them even though there are improvements in the future it will still be difficult to catch Liverpool.

[hahay]

I believe the biggest news is Rashford, he is not looking great and I honestly believe selling Rashford, and maybe even for a good price, would be the key to their future, they could do so much more if they can do that.

There is no guarantee, just by bringing in one young player like Olmo can improve the quality of Manchester United. Because the reality is playing for Manchester United is not easy, for example like Casemiro who at that time really wanted a challenge regardless of Ronaldo at that time. But, Casemiro with the great experience he has, in reality still did not succeed at Manchester United. Not only that, because every coach who is predicted to succeed at Manchester United, in reality they also fail. So, to improve Manchester United, it seems not enough to just bring in one player like that, because it might need a major overhaul.
