Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

[Richbased]

Without a doubt, Mo Salah is a Liverpool legend. At this club, he has won 10 trophies, including the Champions League and the Premier League title. Since the middle of the last title-winning season, Mo has started to decline a bit, and he hasn't been as prominent this season. Perhaps this is the best time for him to part ways with the club. Moreover, he has a chance to go out with a bang and win the Champions League once more. But even if Liverpool can't pull it off, Salah will still remain an LFC legend.

Winning 10 trophies in his 9 years spell at Liverpool really shows that he is a true Legend, not only to Liverpool but in football history because some of the records he was able to achieve includes the first African player to score 50 career Champions League goals. Salah really declined in performance this season because unlike him, scoring 9 goals in 31 appearances in all competition this season could be his worst performance if am not mistaken. His greatest achievement was winning the Champions League because that is what glorifies a player who has performed excellently in his football career.

Forest has been impressive in recent matches as they had shown that they have what it takes to come up against teams that may be considered as top side like Tottenham. I was not expecting that Forest will get all three points against a team like Tottenham even though, Tottenham has not been on a great form in recent it only shows the quality that Forest has in the team, Forest has been great so far this season.


Forest is still in the Europa League and will be playing FC Porto in the quarter finals of the competition. Let see how Forest will come up against a top European team like Porto I believe that Forest can make it to the finals of the Europa League from what I am seeing forest play in recent games.

Nottingham Forest football team effort was great in this match and that team was dominant in this match and they did 3 goals in this match. The shots of Tottenham Hotspur football team were 14 in this match and 2 shots were on target and that team players confidence was not full in this match which was required to win this match. We like a  match in which both teams play well and every team need to focus on their strength and weaknesses but Tottenham Hotspur team should try to be great in this match. Nottingham Forest team players were in excellent form and they did goals in this match which made their fate  but stats of that team was not good in this match as their possession was very low in this match and that was 42 percent in this match and passes were only 309 in this match.

When is about players that lasted a long time in one club Mohammed Salah is one who have spent so many years playing for Liverpool and with all this 10 trophies he acquired in Liverpool all his years has brought fruits for Liverpool, the champions League he has also won is a fulfilment to his nine years of his career in Liverpool. His celebration of the club will take the likeness of the great former Liverpool midfielder Steven Gerrard but when it comes to stay Mohammed Salah is not up to him but still Mohammed Salah is a lend in Liverpool and his country in the African cup. Although the declining of how he usually play is true because Mohammed Salah wouldn't be fit and got only 9 goals in all of those match.

Arsenal are confident of reaching the end of the championship and winning it, in my opinion they are the only ones who had the strength to go there until the end, i must say that they are very strong and very fit, the championship is honestly within their reach and they can take it home after they didn't succeed last time

The premier league title is arguably already in their grasp, they just need to maintain what is in their hands in the remaining 7 games and it should be very easy considering Man City made a lot of mistakes and continued to distance themselves, the decider may be when they meet in the next two weeks, Arsenal must not make the same mistakes as in the carabao cup final they will do their best to fight for a win or at least get a draw, that way the path to lifting the title is wider.

Funny enough Arsenal needs just five straight win to lift the trophy and I think this is achievable having come this far. The only strong contender they have to face in the remaining 7 games is Man City and if they succeed in playing draw with them then 4 wins is enough to take their trophy to Emirates. I love how the  Carabao cup ended this will make Arteta more serious knowing what is at stake if the performance of his team continues to sleep on their defense.

That lost happen to him in two ways it might make him to be more serious and again it might weigh him down and maybe trying to recover from that lost might still cost him more, so it is not yet over until it is over, and remember it's always when the game is remaining 7 matches that Mikel Arteta and his boys always go into default settings, so the only thing i will be praying for them is a Quick recovery so they can be able to face the task ahead because right now it is becoming more fierce by the day because Arsenal is not to be trusted in any way.

Mohamed Salah is really a joy to watch, and I must say that what he has done for Liverpool in his nine years spell has made him becomes Liverpool legend, and after he leaves Liverpool at the end of the season, it will be difficult for someone else to replicate what he has done at Liverpool. I was surprised with Mohamed Salah awful performance this season because he had an amazing performance last season and I was expecting him to perform better this season but he's performance wasn't impressive, and I think Arne Slot cause Mohamed Salah performance to deteriorate this season.

I think the premier league is over at this point, because I don't see Manchester catching up with Arsenal, or Arsenal dropping 9 points at this point. Some people might begin to think that Manchester City has a chance after winning the carabao cup,  but I don't think they do, because Arsenal is still the strongest and most consistent team in the premier league right now, so I don't seeing them losing it at this point.

Maybe your statement could be true, but I still don’t want to say it too early.

Arsenal indeed have a 9 point gap, and they only have 7 matches left, while Man City still have 8 matches remaining. Aren’t you suspicious why City still have one extra game in hand?
Just one bad result could ruin Arsenal’s chance to win the title this season, unless they can consistently secure 3 points in every remaining match. But that seems quite unlikely, especially with the UCL schedule making the players exhausted.

Aren't they going to play versus each other at some point?

I think we shall still have a dramatic end of the English Premier League. Arsenal is still in 3 other competitions, while Manchester City has bagged one, still in the FA, and is out of the Champions League.

From what I have seen is that Arsenal have a very difficult and tough situation now because they will have to play Manchester City who are playing a very good game now, and I absolutely trust Pep Guardiola and his ability when it comes to Title race, Arsenal will have to play Manchester City at the Etihad and it’s going to be a difficult game for Arsenal and I don’t see how Arsenal will possibly beat Manchester City at the Etihad well Arsenal will have no chance but to come up with a defensive style of play, that is what I feel will be a very good game and a good performance from them, that would be a good choice of performance if that should work for them.

Arteta understands Pep Guardiola very well as he spent years working under Pep Guardiola in Manchester City as an assistant coach there. He learned from Pep and built up his tactical and management philosophy but Arteta quickly realized weakness of tiki-taka and any improved versions of it, so in Arsenal he has gradually changed and upgraded his philosophy and no longer is a fan of tiki-taka.

This strategic tactical change from Arteta actually has changed not only himself but also Arsenal and made this club becoming a most competitive and dangerous title contender against Manchester City in four latest seasons in Premier League. This season can be a milestone for Arteta and Arsenal when they will likely be able to win a first Premier League title, and directly beat Manchester City in the title competition.

PSG is just far better, Liverpool should start focusing on the league so they can go to UCL next year, by the looks of it, that's a very slim chance, and unlikely, and Liverpool at Europa would be such a shame, and even that's looking not that easy to achieve, they may just have a bad season of conference or nothing.

They still have opportunities wherever they're currently focused on, their chances of qualifying for UCL next season from the league are still wide open, because the points difference between Liverpool & Aston Villa is only 5 points, with 7 matches left, I think they can still do it. If they think they will fail through the league way, they still have another way, if they can win the UCL, they will play in the UCL next season, right?

So, there's no reason for them to lose focus on 1 competition & focus more on another competition, they have to focus on all competitions to do the best they can.

[SilverCryptoBullet]

PSG knocking out Liverpool last year doesn't guarantee that they will do the same this year, I agree that, what guarantees PSG win is the fact that they are far greater and better, and it is not even remotely the same. We should focus on this and try to make this work instead, that's how we will get better on the long run. I know that this is not going to be easy, and we should look into this as something that may take some time, but in the end it can work fine.

PSG is just far better, Liverpool should start focusing on the league so they can go to UCL next year, by the looks of it, that's a very slim chance, and unlikely, and Liverpool at Europa would be such a shame, and even that's looking not that easy to achieve, they may just have a bad season of conference or nothing.

Last season and this season are different ones and both PSG and Liverpool in this season are very different than they were in the last season. Playing against each other in the last season but in round of 16 is different that what they will do in this season, in quarter finals. In the quarter final phase, both of them will have bigger motivation to play as best as they can because after this phase, they will see semi final phase after which it will be the final match.

PSG are the champion, are defending their crown, and they're also stronger than Liverpool but they have both pressure from themselves to history of Champions League as none other clubs than Real Madrid defended their titles. PSG will have kind of fear of becoming another champion fails to defend the crown.

They still have opportunities wherever they're currently focused on, their chances of qualifying for UCL next season from the league are still wide open, because the points difference between Liverpool & Aston Villa is only 5 points, with 7 matches left, I think they can still do it. If they think they will fail through the league way, they still have another way, if they can win the UCL, they will play in the UCL next season, right?

So, there's no reason for them to lose focus on 1 competition & focus more on another competition, they have to focus on all competitions to do the best they can.

Winning UEFA Champions League is always great as it is a greatest title in Europe at club level and it's very hard to win the title. Especially the title will give Liverpool a direct spot to UEFA Champions League 2026 - 2027 season no matter which position they will finish in Premier League. It's a very motivational target for Liverpool to fight and achieve so firstly they must beat PSG in quarter finals.

Arteta understands Pep Guardiola very well as he spent years working under Pep Guardiola in Manchester City as an assistant coach there. He learned from Pep and built up his tactical and management philosophy but Arteta quickly realized weakness of tiki-taka and any improved versions of it, so in Arsenal he has gradually changed and upgraded his philosophy and no longer is a fan of tiki-taka.

Nevertheless whenever Arteta faces Manchester City his side invariably suffers defeat this means Arteta has yet to overcome the team currently managed by Pep Guardiola. Indeed it is rare for a former protégé—even one who served as an assistant rather than a player—to defeat their mentor. Given that Arteta previously served as Guardiola's assistant at Manchester City he naturally finds it extremely difficult to defeat the team coached by his former teacher—namely Manchester City.

Currently, the *tiki-taka* philosophy has indeed become a hallmark of both Pep Guardiola's team and Arsenal. For Arsenal this playing style has truly taken root under Arteta's guidance having adopted this tactical framework during his tenure as Guardiola's assistant it was inevitable that—upon being appointed manager of Arsenal—Arteta would to a significant degree introduce that very style of play to the home of the Gunners.

They still have opportunities wherever they're currently focused on, their chances of qualifying for UCL next season from the league are still wide open, because the points difference between Liverpool & Aston Villa is only 5 points, with 7 matches left, I think they can still do it. If they think they will fail through the league way, they still have another way, if they can win the UCL, they will play in the UCL next season, right?

Indeed, based on points, Aston Villa still has a chance for a Champions League ticket, but based on performance, for some reason I am a bit doubtful. As we can see recently Aston Villa's performance is very bad, they lost 3 matches in a row and only won in the last match against West Ham well in a situation like that I think Liverpool has a great chance to catch up yeah that opportunity could come on May 17th when the two teams face each other. I think Aston Villa could drop another 6-7 points from all remaining games yeah I checked their match schedule and find at least 4 difficult matches.

Although the declining of how he usually play is true because Mohammed Salah wouldn't be fit and got only 9 goals in all of those match.

No player will stay fit for as long as they continue to play because at some point in their career and age, nature will begin to remind them from time to time that they are no longer that young boy who began a career in football several years ago and rose to become one of the greatest foot ball player in their prime, this is usually nature's way of telling them they have tried and it's time to retire and rest because old age is gradually setting in.

If I am not mistaken, this misplays and miscalculations is already common in how Lionel Messi and Ronaldo play their games, it is impossible to compare their performance now to when they were still a bit younger, because back then, they had the strength and the full energy to do any type of trick.

And regarding mohammed salah being one of the players to have stayed the longest in one club, you are right, he is my type of person, why leave a club if you are comfortable there? And besides, he is also a very good player and that's why Liverpool retained him for this long and I bet he retire from Liverpool..

[Phoenix Anka]

I think Aston Villa could drop another 6-7 points from all remaining games yeah I checked their match schedule and find at least 4 difficult matches.

Actually, it's possible. There's a 5-point difference between the two teams, and it can be closed. If Liverpool hadn't lost to Brighton, the difference would have been 2 points. However, because they lost 3 points to Brighton, the gap increased to 5 points. If Liverpool finishes the season in the Europa League instead of the Champions League, we can say that next year's Europa League leaders are already decided. Their league performance this season has been a complete disappointment.

After watching Arsenal vs. Manchester City in the League Cup final, many doubt whether Arsenal will win the EPL trophy. Manchester City has been performing well lately, and it's possible that Manchester City could prevent Arsenal from winning the EPL trophy. Yes, Manchester City will be the home team, and Arsenal could certainly lose. Manchester City will certainly be enthusiastic in that match, as they will certainly have the full support of their fans.

But in my opinion, that match is still a long way off, and there's still time for Arsenal to improve. However, I think Arsenal's current points gap with Manchester City is still quite large. If Arsenal loses to Manchester City, it won't necessarily displace them as long as they can win their matches against teams other than Manchester City. However, I think Arsenal has the greatest potential to win the EPL trophy this season.

[Fivestar4everMVP]

If Liverpool finishes the season in the Europa League instead of the Champions League, we can say that next year's Europa League leaders are already decided. Their league performance this season has been a complete disappointment.

Well, if Aston villa will try to maintain a reasonable performance in all their remaining matches, maybe they will manage to remain in their current position until this season comes to an end, and what this mean is that they will qualify for the champions league, because the five points they are leading Liverpool with is still a good enough advantage for them, what this means is that they will possibly need to lose two matches and Liverpool win two matches for them (Aston villa) to lose their current rank in the epl table to Liverpool who in turn will qualify to the champions league while Aston villa lost their qualification.

Anyways, these guys are not really my concern to be honest, as a matter of fact any of them can lost or qualify for the champions league, thats up to them, my major concern and focus right now is on Arsenal, I am really looking forward to celebrating them winning the epl title for the first time in a long time😁😁

[Barikui1]

. If Liverpool finishes the season in the Europa League instead of the Champions League, we can say that next year's Europa League leaders are already decided. Their league performance this season has been a complete disappointment.

You can't be too certain about that because most of this top teams doesn't take the uefa Europa league serious as they used to be serious in the uefa champions league. We saw when Barcelona gets knocked out from the uefa champions league and got relegated into the uefa Europa league, they were also knocked out there by Manchester United because they weren't as serious as they should have been, even though their form was very bad that season, so what am trying to say is that you can't be too confident of Liverpool being the group leader, if they eventually didn't make it to the uefa champions league next season, because aside lack of seriousness, so many surprises can also happen, and we are also not sure if the form of Liverpool can can improve before then, so you just can't be too sure.

[wakier]

That lost happen to him in two ways it might make him to be more serious and again it might weigh him down and maybe trying to recover from that lost might still cost him more, so it is not yet over until it is over, and remember it's always when the game is remaining 7 matches that Mikel Arteta and his boys always go into default settings, so the only thing i will be praying for them is a Quick recovery so they can be able to face the task ahead because right now it is becoming more fierce by the day because Arsenal is not to be trusted in any way.

That what I sometimes worry about Arsenal when their performance declines towards the end of the season and I'm afraid they will repeat the same mistakes because they still have to face Man City and that could also determine Arsenal fate but hopefully Arsenal can maintain their performance until the end of the season and that defeat makes Arsenal more focused on being able to win the EPL title and also advance far in the UCL because that all the fans can hope for at least to win one of the prestigious titles.

[BlackBoss_]

Well, if Aston villa will try to maintain a reasonable performance in all their remaining matches, maybe they will manage to remain in their current position until this season comes to an end, and what this mean is that they will qualify for the champions league, because the five points they are leading Liverpool with is still a good enough advantage for them, what this means is that they will possibly need to lose two matches and Liverpool win two matches for them (Aston villa) to lose their current rank in the epl table to Liverpool who in turn will qualify to the champions league while Aston villa lost their qualification.

Aston Villa have been rising in latest seasons and they have become like a new Tottenham Hotspur or Newcastle United with good competitiveness to challenge top four. Luckily for them, with current points of Premier League compares to other big leagues in Europe, Aston Villa will still be eligible for Champions League next season with a fifth position. This fact makes the task for Aston Villa in Champions League more easily but surely they still have remaining matches to complete with either a fourth or fifth position.

That what I sometimes worry about Arsenal when their performance declines towards the end of the season and I'm afraid they will repeat the same mistakes because they still have to face Man City and that could also determine Arsenal fate but hopefully Arsenal can maintain their performance until the end of the season and that defeat makes Arsenal more focused on being able to win the EPL title and also advance far in the UCL because that all the fans can hope for at least to win one of the prestigious titles.

It's only risky if their competitors especially Manchester City can perform well and get more points than Arsenal but in this season, Manchester City have yet shown any strong performance in very last matches of season. Arsenal lost points, that's bad but Manchester City lost points too and it's good for Arsenal. It's like Manchester City wasted all given opportunities to firstly equalize total points with Arsenal, and if they can not do that, how will they surpass Arsenal and take the title, it's impossible.

[Lannakosa]

That what I sometimes worry about Arsenal when their performance declines towards the end of the season and I'm afraid they will repeat the same mistakes because they still have to face Man City and that could also determine Arsenal fate but hopefully Arsenal can maintain their performance until the end of the season and that defeat makes Arsenal more focused on being able to win the EPL title and also advance far in the UCL because that all the fans can hope for at least to win one of the prestigious titles.

Let's say City win their game in hand, which would put Arsenal ahead of City by six points, and there's still seven games left. I think that should be enough for Arsenal to hold on to first place. The most important thing is for Arteta not to overreact when Arsenal have tough games, because it affects the players. Arsenal will have tough opponents: City, Newcastle, and Fulham, if they don't lose these games, they'll be champions.
