Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

[SatoPrincess]

Brentford 4 vs Man Utd 3
Brighton 1 vs Newcastle 1
Chelsea 3 vs Liverpool 1
West ham 1 vs Spurs 1

Some of these matches the results are not much different from what I thought before but unfortunately I was not brave enough to take the risk. It's okay sometimes doubts become obstacles for us to win today.
There is another match today which is the closing of the 35th week of the premier league, namely Crystal Palace vs Nottingham.

The chances are leaning towards the host but I think the result could end in a draw or Nottingham wins, the reason Nottingham has a big target to compete in CL, what do you think?

It’s quite unfortunate that Nottingham Forest failed to record a win from this fixture and the game finished in a 1:1 draw against Crystal Palace but their hopes are not lost yet because they currently sit in 6th position with just three points away from Manchester City who are in third place. The last games of the season are really crucial for them if they want to qualify for champions league football next season.

Liverpool have nothing to lose in that game they are already champions of the season so it is normal that the Manager will want to give minutes to some of their youth players and send team players to play while they rest their key players. Chelsea had a good advantage in this regard going into that game so they had ton win because they had more to play for.

I think that Liverpool will definitely not give Arsenal the satisfaction of winning on Anfield and will try to humiliate them further by betting them in the last match between them his season, so we wont see youth player or rotation player. Liverpool will give them hell on home ground and complicate there Champions League position.

Still have 3 more matches. This weekend they will play against Leicester City who are already relegated. So they should be able to get 3 points. At least they still continue to work hard for the UCL next season. This is because the 3-6 rank point difference is not big and one defeat will make a big change to that ranking. Hopes in the UCL are still very open for Notthingham. In fact, I read rumors that if they qualify for the UCL next season, they are ready to strengthen the team by buying new players to compete in Europe.

Nottingham Forest chances of finishing in the Champions League zone are still open, although they currently look like they are running out of steam. The positions of Man City, Newcastle and Chelsea are actually not completely safe, in the remaining three matches the situation could change, considering the points difference between them is quite thin. Newcastle will face Chelsea this week, and I think this will be the momentum for Nottingham Forest to overtake one of their two competitors.

Aston Villa can also be a threat to be wary of, they are also quite close to reaching the Champions League zone, and of course they will also continue to put pressure. Chelsea will play a key role in the fight for tickets to the Champions League, the fate of Newcastle and Nottingham Forest will depend on Enzo Maresca team.

Despite your analysis, I still don't believe in Nottingham Forest to get a slot in the Champions League zone. Nottingham Forest had great opportunity to compete for the title race because they stayed in third place for a very long time which makes me like them due to their incredible performance. What made me lose confidence in them was when they lost almost three consecutive matches and from that moment I began to lose hope in their performance, they really disappointed me, I'm not expecting them to win the trophy because they cannot do it since Liverpool had taken a long lead which no team can catch up with them.

On the other hand regarding Chelsea and Newcastle United, I really agree with you about Nottingham Forest getting another opportunity here to move to the Champions League zone but still is under probability and that alone lies on them because before they get there they really have to put more effort.

Brentford had played an impressive match against Manchester United last week with a total of 7 goals scored in the match by both teams and Brentford have proven they are capable of scoring goals as they emerged as the winner of the match with 4 goals scored. Brentford will be travelling to the Portman Road Stadium to play against Ipsiwch Town as the away team and since Ipsiwch Town are having one of the worst home playing record for this season except for Southampton, I think Brentford should be able to achieve an easy away victory.

I don’t think Nottingham Forest will get CL football either. They did so well for so long but they just don’t have enough to sustain it for a whole season. Chris Wood was having the season of his life but his goals have dried up. You could say they were in a false position and now reality is catching up with them.

It would still be a great achievement for a club like Nottingham Forest to qualify for the Europa League but Aston Villa are hot on their tails for even that.

Newcastle is an average team in the Premier League that have fairly good players that is why they have experienced this level of growth so far. One thing that makes teams improves is having a good coach that can be able to manage the players in the team and develop them to be world class players and i think Newcastle's coach have been able to produce some quality players in the squad.
       As for Nottingham Forest, they are still new to the Premier League with not much experience even though they have got a good run this season but there is no comparison between them and Newcastle because Newcastle is far more experienced because they have been around in the Premier League for a long time. If some of Nottingham Forest notable players signs for bigger club next season the club will face some problems but what will make some of the players to still remain at the club will be when they qualify for the Champions League next season.

Newcastle United is average team which is trying to have in top ranks specially after change of ownership things are getting improvement because at the end of 2023 the ended-on 4th and then at the end of 2024 the ended-on 7th but now again they have good chance of staying into top 5.

Eddie How doing good job with now their squad depth is amazing and Isak is having amazing season it's good time for them to have improvement into their squad which will keep them in balance for staying into top ranks which is surely going to have interesting for them. Premier League is always one of the most competitive and interesting league which make things great for top players around the world so having good spot always great in coming round they are hosting Chelsea this is good interesting game after this visiting Arsenal which is challenging and then Everton which making their chance for top 5 spots.

Chelsea had a good advantage in this regard going into that game so they had ton win because they had more to play for.

I think that Liverpool will definitely not give Arsenal the satisfaction of winning on Anfield and will try to humiliate them further by betting them in the last match between them his season, so we wont see youth player or rotation player. Liverpool will give them hell on home ground and complicate there Champions League position.

You can't really tell how aggressive Liverpool attack will be. They have nothing to lose whether they win the match or not. Arsenal will play with their last strength to make sure that they secure three points in this match. Otherwise, they might found themselves on the third position. I hope that Arsenal wouldn't finally end up going to Europa League next season

Arsenal cannot be compared with that of Manchester City because Arsenal is far better than Manchester City. After all, when I complain about Arsenal, people think I hate Arsenal, but I still hate them, too, because of the kind of backlashes I love, because they actually deserve it. After all, they have given the instinct of them winning, so there are a lot of things they have done wrong, and they will need to get their shit together because they always find it very hard,  to do anything. The reason for that for how many seasons now Arsenal cannot show anything reasonable, so there is enough reason for people to condemn their actions.

Arsenal and Manchester City both are top quality clubs with Manchester City was ruling in last few years and Arsenal are not able to secure anything big during this time but in this current season Manchester City is having terrible performance which bring them down but still they have good chance of staying into top 3 and also chances are high for them to have FA Cup.

Just because of this we can't say Arsenal is better than Manchester City both are good, but currently Citizens are doing good and fighting back for their best while Arsenal needs to be had changed their mindset and also better aggressive approach which helps them for winning trophies. Arsenal needs to be have prepared with better attacking strategy because without this it's never been going to help them in last three years they stay at second spot while Liverpool is winner of this year which is big achievement for them.

I don't think you are wrong here, arsenal have more to play for than Liverpool, so I really don't expect arsenal to lose this game, and one terrible thing that Liverpool might do is that they might rest most of their key players for this game, since they have nothing to play for, and pertaining to the players, the motivation will no longer be there because they aren't playing for anything, it's just like a friendly game to them, that's why arsenal must do their very best to beat this Liverpool side, because failure to do that may be very fatal for their champions league qualification aspiration.
Where the the real challenge is, is the game between Newcastle united vs Chelsea, that's where the cracker of a game will be taking place because it's a direct fight to secure their top five spot against a rival team, but I am expect the game to be really interesting because of what it's at stake.

Liverpool no longer need to win in the Premier League because Liverpool have won the Premier League trophy this season. And even if Arsenal loses this week's match at Liverpool's home, it will not affect Arsenal because the Arsenal team will also qualify for the Champions League next season. Because Arsenal is still in second place in the Premier League standings, Arsenal's chances of qualifying for the Champions League next season are still very, very safe and will not be disturbed by other teams because there are five teams from the Premier League that will qualify for the Champions League next season and one more is from the team that won the Europa League this season.

For tomorrow and of the 5 matches, 4 of them take place at the same time. If we look at the chances of each team in the betting exchange, I don't think it's suitable if they are all combined in one bet, it's too risky, maybe there are only 3 matches that can be considered for parlay by choosing an outright win for the favorite team namely Man City, Fulham and Brenfortd but the problem is that in the Fulham match, the opponent is Everton, who we know has a solid defense so that a draw could occur and thwart the bet. I haven't decided whether to bet parlay or single maybe some of you can give a little advice and ideas?

They are rivals, and no supporter before a match would want their team to lose to their rivals. Because of that, Liverpool will put on a show, and I think they will defeat Arsenal. On the other hand, even if Liverpool loses, nobody will care as much, but if Arsenal loses, it will definitely be all over the memes.

sometimes it is difficult to determine whether Nottingham Forest will enter the Champions League or not, but after seeing the Nottingham Forest and Brentford match which ended in Nottingham's 0-2 defeat, it is a sign that it is difficult for his team to enter the Champions League, although predictions are not always correct, yes, it all depends on the players themselves in going through it, depending on how hard they train to face the next match to enter the Champions League.

The reason for that for how many seasons now Arsenal cannot show anything reasonable, so there is enough reason for people to condemn their actions.

You can never compare English professional clubs Manchester City and Arsenal because the City giants are the more successful of the two professional clubs. By the way one difference that can be observed between Manchester City and Arsenal at the moment is that Arsenal last won the Premier League in 2003-4 but Manchester City has been winning consecutive Premier League titles for several seasons.

However it is true that according to historical tradition, Arsenal's number of trophies is innumerable but the record of the City giants is very bright. After all what Manchester City has achieved, no other English professional club has been able to achieve, that is they have not been able to snatch four consecutive Premier League titles.

They don't spend a lot of star players, but they have pretty good performances. Indeed, since the change of owners, Newcastle has become better, they have been shopping for players but not too big like Man United, Chelsea or other clubs. Although at first I thought they would bring in a lot of star players, but that didn't happen.

If it compares to Notthingham it might be different, I think Newcatle is more experienced. Nottingham may struggle next season, this is because many players will be leaving. As always, those who get offers from big clubs will tend to leave because of more salaries and bigger teams.  

For some Newcastle players are quite equal to star players because we can see their quite good abilities. In addition, the players owned by Newcastle are also quite solid so it is easy for the coach to find opportunities to stay in the top five of the standings, even though they did not bring in a number of players like Chelsea or Man United.

Different from Nottingham Forest because they have only performed well this season and they also do not have such good squad depth so it is difficult for them to stay in the top five of the standings for next season. Not to mention a number of other teams are starting to overhaul their squads so it will be much more difficult for Nottingham Forest to play consistently at least like this season.

Newcastle management seems to me to be quite experienced. They have a lot of money. They can prepare big funds to buy players if they want. However, Newcastle are very conscious about buying players. They have prepared very big funds to buy players yet. Perhaps the Newcastle coach wants to stabilize the overall condition of his squad. Then maybe he will strengthen the squad more. I believe in the next few seasons we will see Newcastle management prepare big funds like Liverpool and City and want to add star players to the squad.

[JoyMarsha]

At the very least, Arsenal should win the remainder games, to keep their second place. If they can do that, that is better than nothing. Second place three years in a row is terrible of course, they would want to be the winner, but being third place would have sucked even more, so the fact that they are out, means they can focus on the league, rest in between since they have no other cup, and they can do a better job. This way, City will be third, and Arsenal can stay second place, and make more money.

For me, whatever result Arsenal get right now even though it will end up in the top 3 or top 4, it's something bad. I will continue to doubt Arsenal until whenever as long as Arteta still uses the same strategy. We can see more deeply if Arteta is actually a great coach. But his biggest mistake is just always chasing all competitions and ending up failing because players get injured or tired. I will believe if next season Arteta fixes this problem to try to focus on the EPL to win the title here and after gaining this experience can slowly try to pursue titles in other competitions.

If second place feels better for you, for Arsenal to occupy the Premier League table, the third and fourth place should also be good for you, not something bad, since they are qualifying for the Champions League at the end of the season.

Why people are complaining the most about Arsenal is because this is the third time in a row they are not lifting the Premier League trophy after giving a fantastic performance. Arsenal needs to sign more new players next season to cover the injured players when injured. However, for next season, the focus of Arsenal should be more on lifting the Premier League title because that's where they have a higher chance of lifting a league title compared to other league

Manchester City isn't some unstoppable team, while everyone talks about if Arsenal would lose and City would get closer, or even past them, the real question is, could we even see how we could move further up for City when we don't even talk how they could even go down?

I mean Newcastle is literally just one point behind City, and Chelsea too, so there is a serious potential with just one single loss or tie, City could find themselves at fifth place, fighting Nottingham to stay at UCL levels. So do not talk about just Arsenal potentially losing its spot, yes that is a serious possibility, but we should talk about City losing their spot too and that seems like the most important part of it right now. City needs to win, no to be second place, it would be great if they do that, but they need to win so that they could end up staying at third place.

[Stable090]

Liverpool no longer need to win in the Premier League because Liverpool have won the Premier League trophy this season. And even if Arsenal loses this week's match at Liverpool's home, it will not affect Arsenal because the Arsenal team will also qualify for the Champions League next season.

Liverpool have nothing to fight for again, they have been given the premier league trophy already, and they are out of other competitions left, so they are going to play freely against Arsenal, either they win or lose, it’s not really going to add anything to them. Arsenal still need to get a win in the match, if Arsenal cant win the remaining matches which they are having left, then they might not even end the season in top 2 which they are currently in, because Manchester city is currently behind Arsenal, and any mistake from Arsenal then Manchester city will be taking over their current position.
