Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

[Jegileman]

I will not assume this match will be won easily by Arsenal, even though on paper they are far superior and more consistent than Man Utd, we should reflect on Arsenal last match, where they were very difficult against Nottingham, this does not rule out the possibility of happening again especially Man Utd are currently very motivated by their victory in the Manchester derby. So even if Arsenal win and are the favorites here, they will not easily achieve that, Man Utd is still a team with a composition of quality players.

Manchester United will indeed be motivated by their last win against Manchester City, but that’s not enough reason for Arsenal to succumb to their pressure and accept defeat from them. Arsenal have now been this consistent for a long time like this before, it’s been a while that happened and they’ve really impressed a lot of people by this. This is a team that the enthusiasm to win has been with them for a long term and looking at their main focus of maintaining the first place on the table, they won’t want end this even as a draw. Arsenal looks to have the better chance in this match than Manchester United has.

Unfortunately, if you don't perform, these days, they'll kick you out right away and fire you mercilessly. Everyone wants great results right away; you don't have time to make mistakes. One stroke of bad luck and you're completely screwed. In fact, in my opinion, Amorim was unlucky and not lacking as a coach.

The case of Amorim is the one to feel pitiful about but when it comes to football managerial role, being pitiful will only make you not to get better as a team. He has really been given his chances by the management and since he can’t meet the target of what they want, they’ll have to let him go. Some managers are not just the best choice for some top teams even though they’re doing better in a smaller team, only when you sign them you’ll see that they can’t manager a big team effectively well as they will to smaller teams.

Let's not gas Manchester United up because of that win against Manchester City. I have said it a billion times and I will say it again,  due best result Manchester United can get out of that game will be for both sides to share the spoils.
Manchester City had no defence during that game,  Arsenal has both Saliba and Gabriel and they're amongst the best two clubs when playing at home. I don't expect Manchester United to win, I have also placed my bets and it should be a Draw at the end of 90 minutes.

I'm not trying to be Manchester United. I know they are struggling, and Arsenal is a better team than Manchester City, but I'm simply betting on United just for the sake of it. Of course, Arsenal are the better team, and they are the favourites, but I have watched them a lot, and they're not as impossible to break as people think. I know Manchester United is not the team to expect much from, but they can beat Arsenal if they do their homework and put in the work on the pitch.

First, they need to contain the Arsenal attack and make sure they don't score an open-play goal. This is not that difficult, as it is evident in the fact that Arsenal have scored the lowest open play goals among all the top EPL teams.
Then they need to focus on how to make sure Arsenal don't score from a set piece, which is their favourite. And also make sure they get as few chances for set pieces as possible. If they can execute these things to perfection, all they need to figure out is how to create chances and make sure they take their chances.
Arsenal are good, but they're not unbeatable.

Arsenal will have to be careful against Manchester United, if Arsenal are not careful they might not be able to win the match, they shouldn’t underestimate Manchester United, because we saw how they surprised us against Manchester city, maybe they might end up surprising us against Arsenal also. Arsenal haven’t been able to win their last 2 matches, so let’s see how they going to perform against Manchester United.

If Manchester United can pull off a surprise in their upcoming match against Arsenal, it will mean that Carrick has done something truly remarkable for the team because Arsenal's chances of winning are so high, and they are also playing at home with the full support of their own fans. It is a match that many people have predicted Arsenal will win from the start.
I don't expect much from this match, but I hope Manchester United can put on a great game.

Carrick winning Arsenal's Arteta is really going to be a huge miracle because at this point Arsenal are the favourites to win this match even the bookmakers are giving Man United a whooping 6.00 odds for a win over Arsenal, I think the one advantage Man United has over Arsenal is that they are well rested and Arsenal are just coming from a Champions League game.

As a Man City fan, I would want United to actually find a way to defeat Arsenal or even a draw because we have to get back on the horse for this tittle race.

Regardless of how unexpectedly Manchester United have being performing this season most especially in the match against stronger clubs surprising everyone with winnings that we likely don't expect, but in this match gas Asernal in the premier League, it will definitely be a big dead end for Manchester United if they don't take care of their midfield this period of time since Asernal will capitalize on any chance to give them a big gap winning with any given opportunity during the match

[Stable090]

I will not assume this match will be won easily by Arsenal, even though on paper they are far superior and more consistent than Man Utd,

Arsenal plays better than Manchester United, but the match is going to be a tough and interesting one, everyone thinks Arsenal will be winning the match with I also think will be possible, but before Arsenal will be getting a win in the match, it’s not really going to be easy for them.

If you check the top teams that Manchester United have played against this season, they do perform well against  top teams, Manchester United were losing points unnecessarily against weaker teams, and they have been performing well against top teams. If Arsenal will be winning their next match, we shouldn’t even think it’s going to be an easy win.

I don't really know how the match will be like but I am certain that Arsenal could win either half of the match.
Arsenal has a technical team and because Manchester United was able to beat City, that does not mean that they can do the same for Arsenal that has been given us amazing performance and it's not this time that they are going to flop.

I agree with you and we have several reasons. First, Arsenal as the home team and also a reason to strengthen Arsenal position in the standings so they will avoid all mistakes. Of course we still remember how Arsenal missed out on the title in the last 2-3 seasons well, this season the chances should be greater because Arsenal's rivals played worse. I agree with you that in the next match against Manchester United there is no reason to drop points again only in that way can Arsenal get closer to the title, leading by 7 points can be a motivation for all players also avoid mistakes until the end of the season like previous seasons. On the other hand we are not underestimating Manchester United, I mean they will score goal too so betting on total goals is also interesting.

On paper, the advantage tends to be in Arsenal’s favor, as they have shown greater consistency. In addition, Arsenal will be playing at home, which gives them a significant advantage. Manchester United victory over Manchester City cannot be used as a definitive benchmark, but it is clear that Arteta must not underestimate the Red Devils.
Michael Carrick will certainly be ambitious to guide Manchester United into the top four of the standings. If he manages to do so, I think it would be a strong statement that they have developed rapidly and will be capable of finishing in the Champions League places by the end of the season.

They just have to win, it’s the only option they’ve got give that, Manchester City would be playing against the almost relegated side Wolves, the bottom dwellers in the league and with a fixture like that, with Manchester City playing at the Etihad, you would expect them to win and creep 3 point closer to Arsenal which isn’t what Arteta would want. A Pep right behind him and his not claiming all 3 points in his fixtures, that’s a way to loose the league. Arsenal have just got to beat Manchester United come Sunday.

Well, we can never be too sure for sure, even Manchester city has been giving good and amazing performance games in the earlier days of this season and even until recently when things seemed have shifted for whatever reason(s), and what this means is that any team can flop at any time..
But again and on the other hand, I completely agree that the fact Manchester united managed to beat Manchester city for the first time in a long while doesn't necessarily mean that Manchester united have become better than Manchester city and can easily beat Arsenal, worst come to worst, the match will end in a draw but I am not saying I am completely sure..Arsenal may end up messing up leading to their defeat, but on the normal level, Manchester united isn't supposed to beat Arsenal, this should not happen if Arsenal really mean to win the title this season, they need to put in their best in every game to come our victorious.

[Sandra_hakeem]

A draw probably seemed like a fair result but neutral fans don't want penalties given for such a slight touch from the goalkeeper. however the decision was too harsh on the spot kick especially when the player had virtually given up on scoring and eventually decided to dive.

The reality is that brighton have stalled in their development, i don't see any progress whatsoever. In fact, you could argue the opposite. The coach needs to step up his game, should be playing better with players at hand. Brighton from last season would have won this one and a few others earlier in the season. Here we go again, facing Fulham today.. A team that went 2:2 draw against Liverpool, and a straight win against Chelsea? I'm wondering how bad things would be for Brighton

Brighton is now in bad run following 1-1 tie with Bournemouth, but it was marked by disputed penalty call which most viewers of match claimed was too harsh. Although Charalampos Kostoulas scored a goal in last second, team has fallen to 12th spot and seems to miss planned flow they had last season. They are currently up against very confident Fulham team that not only drew with Liverpool but also beat Chelseam. Therefore, making them very dangerous opponent in Craven Cottage. As Fulham is only one goal above them in 11th place, Brighton must use their defense better and have overall better game to stop another sad end and continue their fall on table.

You're absolutely right, good examples are Eric Ten Hang and Ruben Amorim this two where doing absolutely well in their previous teams not until they chose to step up their game to a higher level which is coming to Old Traford to coach the Manchester United team, then it was at that moment they realize it's not really how good you are with the other teams but how well experienced you are, so if it's time for Manchester United to pick a coach I think they should look for an experienced coach because that alone can be the only way out of this their hard time.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Arsenal are one of the two strongest contenders for the championship in both the Champions League and the Premier League.

It cannot be denied that Arsenal have been doing very well and that they have been lucky because City have not been able to catch them since they have entered a further phase of crisis, losing matches that they should not have lost, a very clear case is the last match, things happen but that a team like City has been affected a lot , especially Pep, who is in a depressive state according to some unofficial information.

Arsenal definitely have a reason to be viewed as being serious competitors within this season, particularly with the form that they have displayed both domestically and in the international scale. Nevertheless, I would not rely on luck as their monolithic position. City troubles and problems of Pep might have had a role to play but arsenal has capitalized on the situation by winning matches they had lost before. Such a shift in mentality is also essential in title races and it is something Arsenal did not have on the previous seasons. They appear even less put together in this season.

[Majestic-milf]

 I will not deny that the Gunners won't have it tonight for them on Sunday when they play Man UTD because firstly, it's at the Emirates and we know that Arsenal are yet to lose at their home this season and as such other teams would be looking to be the first to break that record. Second, they are hoping to widen the points gap over Man City and this could make them very desperate and begin to lose focus. We know that Micheal Carrick has opened the team to a new pattern of playing so this means that they'd be willing to give Arsenal a tough time and it's not a secret that clubs like Chelsea, Man UTD and even City or Tottenham Hotspur always are a difficult game for the Gunners so yeah, it's a matter of keeping our fingers crossed.

Arsenal are a very strong team. They are performing exceptionally well in both the Premier League and Champions League. Especially in the last match of the Champions League, they won against a giant like Arsenal. Their only target in the Premier League match will be to win.

We wouldn't be so worried about the Manchester United vs Arsenal match if United hadn't performed exceptionally well in their last match against City. Since they beat City, Manchester United will also get points against Arsenal. Anyway, I just want to enjoy the match.

So even if Arsenal win and are the favorites here, they will not easily achieve that, Man Utd is still a team with a composition of quality players.

Arsenal even though it is a team that is favored by many to win, it will definitely not be easy against Man United because Man United has strong players and Arsenal could be overwhelmed when facing Man United, Arsenal's draw vs Nottingham Forest is indeed very surprising but try to look at the last match between Arsenal vs Inter there Arsenal performed well and certainly in the match against Man United there is also the potential for Arsenal to perform well and finally beat Man United. The Arsenal vs Man United match will definitely be very exciting and certainly both teams are very ambitious to win and Arsenal definitely wants to continue to add points because if Arsenal loses it will make Man City have a better chance to be able to reduce the points difference with Arsenal. and Man United currently definitely wants to finish in the top 4 because Man United definitely wants to appear in the Champions League next season. so tomorrow's match will definitely be exciting but it seems like I will just bet.

I think Arsenal will win 2–1 against Manchester United. Because Arsenal has been consistent in almost all the matches this season. They can maintain their playing structure quite well even in big matches and against easy teams. Odegaard and Rice have very good midfield control. If Arsenal's strikers were a little stronger, they would be a perfect combo. Then the goal difference might increase. The winning margin could be 2–0. But I am quite optimistic that they will win.
