Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

[POPOLUV]

With the short break that all clubs side went because of the Europe world championship-Qualification and the Africa championship-Qualification which took the whole week, it is good that all the country players had returned back to the their clubs side, i believe that this weekend Arsenal is going to meet Northamforest at home, and with previous matches that has been played in the premier League this season Northamforest has been playing very well, so Northamforest playing with Arsenal at home will be very tough game because Arsenal is a very strong team as far as priemer league is concerned and i believe that Arsenal will surely dominate that match either from the first of the game or the second half of the game, one thing that is sure that Arsenal will win the match from over 1.5 and more.

Manchester United are still in a shaky position. Although they have strengthened their attack a bit, their defence is very weak. The defenders have been inconsistent in their performances, and the goalkeeper has been poor. I would have been happy if Manchester United had been able to complete the deal with Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez. Martinez is one of the best goalkeepers of the moment. But Manchester United have spent 21 million on Senne Lemmens. There is no reason to think that Lemmens is a more experienced goalkeeper than Bayindir or Onana. Manchester United needed a talented and experienced goalkeeper. I would say that  buying  Lemmens is another bad decision for Manchester United this season.
Yeah I can agree with you on this. I also think Emiliano Martinez would have been a better choice as first choice goalkeeper for United because not will he make better saves, he will also command the defense around him with his leadership qualities, United missed a good player in Martinez.

I never liked Emiliano Martínez because of his arrogance, he's a person who believes in himself a lot and then in the end, when compared to other younger goalkeepers, he would only bring water bottles, but that's another thing, Manchester needed a signing like that and without him they would be in a very bad situation.

Ange Postecoglou has become the new manager of Nottingham Forest. He will undoubtedly strive to develop a strong strategy. I hope he can continue Nuno's legacy. Last season, we saw Nuno coach Nottingham Forest well. Nottingham Forest became a strong team and rose in the standings. I also hope to see Ange Postecoglou improve Nottingham Forest's performance. Considering that Postecoglou recently led Tottenham to the Europa League title, I hope he can also lead Nottingham Forest to the Europa League title this season. This will certainly be an exciting challenge for Postecoglou.

But what I'm really looking forward to is the match between Nottingham Forest and Tottenham. It's sure to be an exciting and exciting battle of strategies. Are you interested in that match, even though it's still a long way off?

Postecogulu becoming Nottingham forest manager is a welcome development but if were left for me alone, I would have like Nuno Esprinto to continue with Nottingham forest. But since it was obvious that Mariakis relationship with Nuno was bad the change was expected. Mariakis seems to admire the track records of Postecogulu in winning titles that's why he went for him. Let's hope Postecogulu will continue with that tradition at Nottingham forest. But him winning the Europa league with Nottingham forest is something am not sure of.

It is very likely that Arsenal will be playing at home, of course they will have a much higher motivation after losing in the previous match, so that makes Arsenal much more motivated in the match against Nottingham later and I am also sure that Arsenal will be able to win the match without any significant difficulties, maybe they will be able to win by more than 2 goals.
That's a pretty realistic prediction after thoroughly measuring the strength of both teams unless a big surprise occurs.

Playing at home does not determine a greater chance of winning in the Premier League and I don't see any team in the Premier League feeling the advantage when playing at home because anything can happen in this league. In this match, I see Arsenal's chances of winning are much greater, considering that Arteta's men need all three points to catch Liverpool and Chelsea who are above them and A loss could pose a problem for Arsenal.

Nottingham Forest cannot be underestimated, as they can spring a surprise on other strong teams, so Arsenal need to be careful not to drop points in the fourth match. A win is crucial for Arsenal, considering they are fighting for the title this season, and another loss would leave them even further behind Liverpool.

I never liked Emiliano Martínez because of his arrogance, he's a person who believes in himself a lot and then in the end, when compared to other younger goalkeepers, he would only bring water bottles, but that's another thing, Manchester needed a signing like that and without him they would be in a very bad situation.

Emiliano Martinez is a top class goalkeeper that would have improved the goalkeeping position of Manchester united if he was given a chance because he is premier league trusted and tested, and yes Manchester united may have their reasons why he wasn't signed but if I was the center of decision making at Manchester united I would have gone for his signature because he brings much needed experience and quality into the side. I wouldn't say he is arrogant because I have not met him, it's only when you have met a person you can start saying he is like this or that, but take note that you cannot be good in everybody's story, and yes he has been in one or two controversial situation in the past but that doesn't determine who he is, so what am trying to say is that if I were to be making decisions at Manchester united, I will definitely go for his signature because he can give me what I want which is the most important thing.

It was before that home advantage use to be in football but not all the time but in some casess, out side that Arsenal is still in a better position to win Nottingham Forest but no club should be underestimated as you said and football isn't just what we can be sure of it is an unpredictable game but Arsenal will want to win to close up the some gap in the premier league table, also for now every club in the league is going for the title there will be a stage where we will know the true clubs going for the league title this season.

But since it was obvious that Mariakis relationship with Nuno was bad the change was expected. Mariakis seems to admire the track records of Postecogulu in winning titles that's why he went for him. Let's hope Postecogulu will continue with that tradition at Nottingham forest. But him winning the Europa league with Nottingham forest is something am not sure of.

Postecogulu had a poor season with Tottenham, and winning the Europa League is a significant achievement, but their results in the Premier League were frankly bad. Espiritu will be very difficult to replace, and I think that Tottenham will not progress much with Postecogulu, although I hope I am wrong. Nottingham showed a very good game and I think they had the space to progress, but for this they need good funding for new transfers, and if this is not there, then changing the coach will not change anything.

Perhaps what happens to Manchester City this season will be very different from last season, because this season several underdog teams have also undergone changes and could even become stronger this season. So, Manchester City's journey this season won't be easy, although I personally still believe Manchester City will be a team that will return to strength this season. However, the obstacles this season will truly create excessive difficulties for any team, so the players and coaches will have to fight harder this season.

I think as time passes there is more competition to face in every field. And as the race of competition increases the performance also needs to be increased. I think the reason for the difference in the performance of Manchester city in the last season and this season is also the same reason.  Because this season they need more to show their skills and talent. The obstacles they are facing and the problems affecting their performance are really affecting their overall position. But the one thing that is true is that the team is very strong and has capable players . And I personally think that they will resume their performance in a more good way and manage to gain a prominent position. But they need to focus on the identification of the problems. Because once the problem is identified it will be easier to overcome that.

Yes, it will be difficult to pinpoint the problem. The key is to identify the source of the problem. Manchester City is in worse shape than in previous years, and they haven't started the Premier League well at all this year. We all know they're one of the Premier League's strongest teams and we all know their past successes. They didn't win the title last year and were eliminated from the Champions League. They haven't started the league well this year, and if things continue like this, it seems Guardiola won't be able to find a solution. I never would have predicted Manchester City would be in this situation. So, legends are slowly coming to an end.

Ange Postecoglou's success in bringing the Europa League trophy to Tottenham should be highly appreciated, in my opinion. Tottenham's team hasn't won a trophy for a long time. Therefore, I think Tottenham's decision to fire Ange Postecoglou was a wrong move, and their slump in the Premier League is understandable, given their already significant lag and shared focus.

Ange Postecoglou hasn't shown significant progress with Nottingham Forest, but considering the strength of the squad, I think we have to be realistic, and Postecoglou also needs time to begin the process of building the team.

[YUriy1991]

Arsenal are clear favorites in this match, and in addition to having home advantage, they have also consistently won against Nottingham Forest at the Emirates.
While Nottingham Forest has the potential to be a tough opponent and cause a surprise under their new manager, I don't think they can beat Arsenal, and Mikel Arteta won't let that happen in front of his fans. However, Nuno Espirito Santo's departure from Nottingham Forest will provide Arsenal with an opportunity they will capitalize on, and I'm betting on Arsenal in this match.

I predict a 2-0 victory for Arsenal against Nottingham Forest.

This is because Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres is in top form, coupled with a solid midfield. Declan Rice, Martin Zubimendi, and Mikel Merino are playing well, orchestrating Arsenal's attacks. Although several key players, such as William Saliba and Bukayo Saka, are injured, the arrivals of Piero Hincapie from Bayer Leverkusen and Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace have bolstered Arsenal's attack in Week 4 of the Premier League. An Arsenal victory in this match is crucial considering that Arsenal had dropped three points the previous week after losing 1-0 to Liverpool at Anfield.

[IceLincoln]

Arsenals form is better than forests but that doesn't mean that their form is sound, compared to the previous season I think that they are a little slow now. This game is a tough one and your verdict isn't far from what I had in mind. Nottingham wouldn't want to give up easily so it would be a defensive game on their part which can lead to a draw but the chances of arsenal winning this game is quite high to me

Watch their previous H2H and I must confess, Arsenal do have the upper hand to win Nottingham Forest. Do you know what's going to happen when Mikel Arteta faces the new Nottingham Forest manager, Ange Postecoglou? They're going to shake hands and implement tougher strategies for themselves. There's absolutely no way any side going to lay low and accept defeats without a fight, I think this game is 50/50 following their previous performance of both sides.

Arsenal haven't portray a stunning performance that would revived the hope of their supporters, no doubt that they might be winning games but their performance doesn't appear impressive. Gunners just have to work extremely hard on themselves because winnings comes from the very best team that have mentality of winning.

On the contrary I’ll say they Arsenal have been impressive losing only to Liverpool by a small margin in a toughly contested encounter or battle. this season Liverpool are the most inform and complete team in the Premier League and they’re looking to retain their title. If Arsenal are to win the EPL they have to be better than Liverpool and ensure they stay consistent on their performance. I think they would give Liverpool a run for their money not like last season. It’s gonna be a fiercely contested tournament this season even to the last match day .

Postecogulu had a poor season with Tottenham, and winning the Europa League is a significant achievement, but their results in the Premier League were frankly bad. Espiritu will be very difficult to replace, and I think that Tottenham will not progress much with Postecogulu, although I hope I am wrong. Nottingham showed a very good game and I think they had the space to progress, but for this they need good funding for new transfers, and if this is not there, then changing the coach will not change anything.

Ange had a bad time with Tottenham last season in the Premier League but won the Europa league because he made his decision to prioritise the Europa after their poor Premier league start due to injury that affected their key players. Tottenham aim was to end their trophy drought and Ange helped them to achieve that mission. I learnt there was issues between Nuno and the owners regarding recruitment that led to his sacked. Everything concerning this process was shocking from the sacked of Nuno that came unexpected to the appointment of Ange who just lost his job.

[Danica22]

Manchester City is a shadow of itself now ,they have become weak unlike before when they were the most feared team in the premier League.  looking at the H2H, Arsenal defeated Manchester City 5:1 at Emirates stadium last season and at that time, Manchester City were in a better Form than this season. For them to have loss to Brighton and Tottenham, I think Manchester City wouldn't be a problem for Arsenal. They will be defeated easily by Arsenal due to their poor recent performance. However I think the only teams that are close to equal Arsenal this season are Chelsea and Liverpool.

Manchester city is in a very shaky state this season. Their overall condition is weak. No other player is able to perform well in the attack except Haalland. At the same time, Manchester city's defense is also weak. We have seen city's weak defense against brighton and tottenham. We should not expect too much from city this  season. We also have to be very careful when betting on city's matches. Manchester City will play against Manchester united in the next match. I do not dare to bet on City's victory in this match either. There is a big possibility of City losing points.

I predict a 2-0 victory for Arsenal against Nottingham Forest.

This is because Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres is in top form, coupled with a solid midfield. Declan Rice, Martin Zubimendi, and Mikel Merino are playing well, orchestrating Arsenal's attacks. Although several key players, such as William Saliba and Bukayo Saka, are injured, the arrivals of Piero Hincapie from Bayer Leverkusen and Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace have bolstered Arsenal's attack in Week 4 of the Premier League. An Arsenal victory in this match is crucial considering that Arsenal had dropped three points the previous week after losing 1-0 to Liverpool at Anfield.

The Gunners can do better in this game only if they change the way they displayed against Manchester United and Liverpool, is as if if the don't see anything close to a set piece they can't play which is bad with those good players they have. As it is Arsenal have a more better squad than they did last season so this game against Nottingham forest should go their way even if is the early kick off and many would see it as a draw, I think it won't be because of how desperate the Gunners are to make up for that disappointing performance that led to the loss against Liverpool. Well this encounter will be all about the Gunners and Nottingham are not yet in form since the beginning of this season, let's give it to Arsenal on Saturday.

[pewboy]

Although Nottingham Forest did well in the previous season, their performance this season is weak. Despite winning the first match, Nottingham Forest lost points in the next two matches. Especially in the last match, Nottingham Forest lost 3-0 against West Ham. It will not be possible to resist Arsenal's strong attack with such a shaky defense. I guess Arsenal will win this match at least 2-0. Nottingham Forest's condition is not that good. So Arsenal will not have much problem in winning.
It is very likely that Arsenal will be playing at home, of course they will have a much higher motivation after losing in the previous match, so that makes Arsenal much more motivated in the match against Nottingham later and I am also sure that Arsenal will be able to win the match without any significant difficulties, maybe they will be able to win by more than 2 goals.
That's a pretty realistic prediction after thoroughly measuring the strength of both teams unless a big surprise occurs.

I'm not very experienced, but correct me if I'm wrong. He fired someone a few days ago, and he plays terribly.
In my opinion, we can officially say that he's in crisis. I can't remember him playing this badly last year.
Or am I just wrong? probably eh

[Albarq]

On the contrary I’ll say they Arsenal have been impressive losing only to Liverpool by a small margin in a toughly contested encounter or battle. this season Liverpool are the most inform and complete team in the Premier League and they’re looking to retain their title. If Arsenal are to win the EPL they have to be better than Liverpool and ensure they stay consistent on their performance. I think they would give Liverpool a run for their money not like last season. It’s gonna be a fiercely contested tournament this season even to the last match day .

It will definitely happen to show each other their abilities between them in the match, even so Liverpool has experience in winning the Premier League and Champions League from there a strong mentality is formed and players who are no longer in doubt in their performance from there they continue to learn and understand what will happen, and Arsenal still feels difficulty in the match in this League especially to defeat Liverpool in getting the championship title.

[Gallar]

Postecogulu becoming Nottingham forest manager is a welcome development but if were left for me alone, I would have like Nuno Esprinto to continue with Nottingham forest. But since it was obvious that Mariakis relationship with Nuno was bad the change was expected. Mariakis seems to admire the track records of Postecogulu in winning titles that's why he went for him. Let's hope Postecogulu will continue with that tradition at Nottingham forest. But him winning the Europa league with Nottingham forest is something am not sure of.

Yes, I agree with you, because no matter what, Nuno seems to have a good understanding of Nottingham Forest's playing style. Ange, on the other hand, isn't necessarily going to be able to bring Nottingham Forest back to its best. While it's true that Ange has led Tottenham to Europa League glory, that doesn't guarantee that Ange can lead Nottingham Forest to glory in either the Europa League or the Premier League. Furthermore, don't forget that under Ange's leadership, Tottenham were almost relegated the previous season.

Fortunately, they avoided relegation and finished 17th in the Premier League. With that evidence, I think Nottingham Forest should be wary of Ange's management. He seems unable to focus on two competitions at once. This suggests that this season, Nottingham Forest will likely have to focus on either the Premier League or Europe. Given Ange's history at Tottenham, he's truly only capable of focusing on one competition at a time. So with that in mind, we'll see what Ange can do in Nottingham.

[Shadiq]

Manchester city is in a very shaky state this season. Their overall condition is weak. No other player is able to perform well in the attack except Haalland. At the same time, Manchester city's defense is also weak. We have seen city's weak defense against brighton and tottenham. We should not expect too much from city this  season.

There is a big possibility of City losing points.

City are in a terrible state now, they have already lost their ability to dominate the Premier League and are no longer a threat to smaller teams. When will they get out of this terrible state? And when will they take action to solve this problem?
They have already lost fans and lost the trust of the fans this season. Even against smaller teams, City fans cannot trust them. Against Manchester United, I would definitely back United over City, especially in terms of betting. I think City need to re-plan and revamp their management. Now is the best time for City to make a comeback.

[Adbitco]

As posted by Fabrizio, Nottingham Forest has parted ways with it's manager Nuno Espirito Santo, these's was a tense situation at the club between him and them, I believe that's the main reason why he was sacked. Nottingham Forest has started off this season with a win, a draw and a lose in three matches. I believe that's one of the major trigger as to why he and the club management has fallen off and it resulted in a sack.

I don't know how the management of Nottingham Forest came up with the decision to sack Nuno Espirito Santo because this was a coach that made remarkable impact in the club last season despite that they didn't qualify for the Champions League games after they reached third position in the league table before they dropped down to 7th position at the end of last season but they still made it to the Europa League games which is still a good achievement but for the club to sack Nuno Espirito Santo after just 3 games this season is really sad. When we were still condemning the sack of Eric Ten Hag by Bayern Leverkusen after only 2 games now it's Nottingham Forest sacking a coach that is still doing well for the club.

Maybe the management was expecting too much from Nuno Espirito, because I don't understand why the owner was angry when they didn't make it to the Champions League spot. What exactly was he expecting, that either Chelsea or Manchester City was going to drop! He should have known better, these clubs have been working hard all these years to be where they are and they know exactly what and how to play to get to the UCL spot because they have been doing it for long. If he brings Newcastle to the equation, Newcastle has been in a better form than Nottingham Forest last season.

[Alpha Marine]

I never liked Emiliano Martínez because of his arrogance, he's a person who believes in himself a lot and then in the end, when compared to other younger goalkeepers, he would only bring water bottles, but that's another thing, Manchester needed a signing like that and without him they would be in a very bad situation.

A goalkeeper believing in himself is what you don't like? Are you kidding me? You would prefer a goalkeeper who doesn't believe in himself and is always shaky in that post? Let's get serious, please. The only thing I can use to write off Martinez is his age; aside from that, he is still a very good goalkeeper and even currently better than the keeper Man United signed.

We've watched Emiliano Martínez make impressive saves almost every week, and he does even better in the Argentine national team. We've seen him successfully save penalties, too, yet you say he's not as good as the young keepers.
The fact that you don't like him shouldn't make you lie about his abilities.
