[Football] English Premier League Betting & Discussion Thread

[Didia Sofunichi]

I am not too much football lover but when i saw the point table man united rank is in number 15, i went crazy. I want to see a doctor dude. What went wrong in the pointable or with my eyes! !! !! Cannot believe that. I didn't watch a game, surely will watch tomorrow.

Manchester United isn't a descent team and everyone knows. If you are a United fan I recommend you port to Chelsea for your mental health and wellbeing

Tottenham will play more with the intention to win because that is the only trophy they have the chance to win this season, and Liverpool may decide to be more conservative to make sure they don't have their players burn out.
Everton now sacked Sean Dyche, fear of relegation perhaps. West also have appointed Graham Potter as their new coach after Lopetegui's sack.

No doubt, high intention for winning their first trophy in this season after long time waiting for Tottenham Hotspur and have capital after winning one goals seems enough to secure winning trend or being draw at second leg match. In other side, Newcastle United have better match after winning two goals over Arsenal and looks easily for second leg match get draw or loss under two goals.
Actually between Newcastle or Tottenham have high target for winning EFL Cup because both teams only this trophy opportunity for winning in this season.

The English League Cup competition always puts its own spin in the journey of teams such as Tottenham and Newcastle, that are struggling to get the trophy. The opponents are equally strong, and both sides strive for getting the most of the situation observed. As such we see fighting spirit and teamwork as being rather meaningful under circumstances like these. Tottenham have certain conditions sustained, whereas Newcastle tasted extraordinary with their results against Arsenal. Of course, we expect that the second leg match will be an occasion for both teams to perform their maximum, stabilise the playing results, and make their fans happy. However it ends their fight is one that needs to be praised and one which should be appreciated.

But I hope Liverpool won't lose in the FA Cup. because if they also lose in the FA Cup then it will not be good at all for the mentality of their players. I'm afraid their squad is experiencing a decline in confidence. Because usually a series of declines in performance always start as a result of an unexpected defeat which makes the players lose confidence. I hope Arne Slot is able to maintain the mentality of the Liverpool players to remain strong and continue to move forward and win many trophies this season. After the match against Accrington in the Fa Cup, Liverpool will compete in the Premier League against Nottingham. And I hope Liverpool will be careful in this match. because we all now know that Nottingham's strength really cannot be underestimated this season. And this team is also the only team that managed to beat Liverpool at the start of this season.

Slot squads must have a strong focus on preparation and strategy.
Tomorrow, The Reds are seeking their first win of 2025, following a 2-2 draw with Manchester United and a loss to Tottenham in the Carabao Cup semi-final in the FA Cup tie against Accrington Stanley.
I’ll be highly disappointed if they concede against a 19th-place team in League 2. This should be a 4-nil game no less.
A big win will boost their confidence when they meet Forest in the PL.
And hopefully, we'll see some of the younger players like Jayden Danns, Rio Ngumoha or Trey Nyoni get a chance to play.

This is the season for Liverpool to shine and I don't think anyone can stop their shine. Manchester City era is over and that's why you see them in such poor performance.

Yep. It is likely very difficult for any EPL team to challenge Liverpool because they perform very consistently in EPL matches. Liverpool is leading with 46 points now, they have 6 points difference from Arsenal in the 2nd place. Liverpool even still has 1 unplayed match, they will have 9 points difference if they win the unplayed match. Anyway, it is true that Man City era has been ended already, they are declining their performance a lot. Meanwhile Arsenal becomes more unstable if we compared with the previous season. Well, it is the right time for Liverpool to shine, this season is the time for Liverpool to win the EPL trophy.

[Didia Sofunichi]

I don't really expect the likes of Southampton to remain at the top. I don't think they have enough players to rotate to keep on winning.

But it is possible they can stay at the current position. Why not? Even if they don't have enough players to play at the top performance all the season, but it doesn't mean they have no chance, mate.

Chelsea is on a good run and Man City hasn't been beaten in their last five matches even without Aguero.

Yeah, Chelsea seems to have an interesting result in this season. The coach can make Chelsea be strong again with young players. Let's see when they can compete for the number 1 position on the table.

No one thought they will make it to the top, the premier league is full of surprises. The surprises and offsets key coming unexpectedly. The season is still young and we are watching

[salad daging]

The defeat in the EFL yesterday was not a big problem because some teams rotated their players not to appear full so it is natural if Liverpool but there is still a chance to win in the second leg at Anfield.

Tottenham will play more with the intention to win because that is the only trophy they have the chance to win this season, and Liverpool may decide to be more conservative to make sure they don't have their players burn out.
Everton now sacked Sean Dyche, fear of relegation perhaps. West also have appointed Graham Potter as their new coach after Lopetegui's sack.

Although this is the only trophy they can achieve but for Tottenham it is still difficult there is still leg 2 to complete it, because they don't believe in leg 2 Tottenham will win. So Tottenham will not win the trophy until whenever. Lol

Curious how Graham Potter returns to the Premier League, if he is successful there means nothing bad with him.

Anyhow, the bookies do not give them much chances to qualify for the final. The odds for that to happen are x4.80, odds for Newcastle: x1.16. This says a lot.
Although 0-2 is not impossible to come back from, the fact that they'll be playing away and that Newcastle is on fire with seven wins in a row will make it close to impossible.

X4.80 is a nice odd - Arsenal has a great chance of reaching the final if Saka is available for the second leg of the match; they just need to score two goals to even the aggregate, force extra time, and bury the match.

Yes, this is a slightly surprising result, because the 2 teams that were actually favorites to win actually had to suffer defeat. However, they are not completely finished, because there is still the second leg that they have to play.

In the second leg, it is not impossible that the score will turn around. I think the two teams that now have the advantage will try to play more defensively to secure the victory. It is definitely risky, but if you play openly, it also has the same big risk.

The chances of Liverpool re-covering and beating Tottenham on aggregate in the second leg is higher and I'm certain they will make it to the final.

Indeed, the results of the semi-final matches in the EFL Cup were quite surprising.

Yes, this is a slightly surprising result, because the 2 teams that were actually favorites to win actually had to suffer defeat. However, they are not completely finished, because there is still the second leg that they have to play.

Exactly, they still have a second chance and that is very important for both of them. Yes, of course there is no guarantee that Arsenal or Liverpool will win in the second leg, but if Arteta and Arne Slot are really serious and have a very good strategy, they should be able to do it.

Liverpool has an easier chance because of the 1 goal aggregate, while Arsenal must make more efforts with the 2 goal aggregate.

Yes, there is no guarantee that they can win and turn things around, but their chances are also quite big to do that, so they can take advantage of it well.

Also, there are usually many surprises when competing in the second leg, that's what we've seen so far. Many teams can finally win and turn things around in the second leg, not only here but in bigger competitions it usually happens like that. So they still have that chance.

No Premier League games this weekend and we'll have to wait till Tue for another round. To me, the most interesting game of the matchday 21 is Nottm Forest Vs Liverpool.
The odds for that game are:

Nottm Forest: x4.50
Draw: x4.00
Liverpool: x1.70

This looks about right, but maybe Nottm Forest are underestimated a bit. They are on 6 wins streak, while Liverpool lost the 1 leg semi-final against Tottenham and split points at home with troubled Man United.
What's a bit strange is that both teams tend to perform slightly better in away games than at home (the difference is negligible though).

This match is one game that will be entertaining to watch because the two teams are actually doing well and in their best forms because currently speaking the two teams occupy the first and third positions in the premier League table and this game will be decisive for the league because both teams needs a win badly because I win for Liverpool will be helpful to them as they dropped points against Manchester United last week and can't afford to drop points again if they are serious about winning the premier League this season

Nottingham Forest too will try to continue their winning streak against Liverpool as they face the league leaders a win for forest will be helpful to their cause as they try to finish in the top four position or even try and win the league title, this match will be decisive as both teams play attacking end to end football and this match will be won on the basis of which team utilize their chances in front of goal

Last one hour ago, Liverpool success continue the positive trend after defeating football league two team Accrington Stanley over 4-0 at FE Cup match 3rd round.
Played full young players and have any players make debut not difficulty for Liverpool secure the next round place leaded 2-0 at the first half from Jota and TAA goals.
At second half Liverpool scoring two goals again from young players Jayden Danns and nice come back from Federico Chiesa by scoring last goal, its opportunity for him get back the regular position in premier league match after having problem with injury.

The results of this match are proof that Liverpool also have thorough preparations in their second tier. It looks like Klopp really bequeathed a very valuable squad to Slot. So it is not surprising that Liverpool remains strong this season. Because apart from having a good squad that Klopp has built and also because this team has a coach who understands how to make the most of this team's squad. Slots can really be expected. I'm happy he's on this team.

The new Liverpool coach has a mentality to win every game he is in, which is why, regardless of the competition, he always tries to make sure that the result is the same that is a positive one for Liverpool. Surprisingly, this is his first season, so I'm looking forward to how he will be in the 2nd season when he has adjusted better and balanced more into the Premier League. We will be looking at an era where Pep Guardiola may be made uncomforatble.

Forest won again the matches. They always won the matches in the last 5 matches. Sure, it is very nice performance, I never expect this team to perform like this. Against Wolves, they could score 3 goals although they didn't really dominate the match. Well, this makes Forest to be in 3rd place in EPL standings. They are surely in UCL zone, they will play in UCL in the next season if they can finish this season in the top 3 of EPL competition. However, EPL is still far from the end, there is chance of some changes in the position of the teams in EPL table.

What the amazing performance from Nottingham Forest in premier league this season after success winning 5 consecutives matches in a row and recently pressure Arsenal on the 2nd place behind have the same points. Last defeated for Nottingham Forest when facing Manchester City at the early December last year and unbelievable with 5 consecutives winning by defeating top teams such as Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa.
After facing Luton Town at FA Cup match, Nottingham will face Liverpool in the premier league match will the winning trend keep continue or stopping.

Yes, they played with fairly consistent results so that they could remain in 3rd position until now competing in the EPL is not easy, there are many top clubs that bring each other down and they are famous top clubs that cannot be underestimated. That's why, when Nottm forest went up, it was amazing.

it's just that I don't know whether it will last until the end or not because in the next few matches, Nottm Forest will fight against the closest Liverpool. and there are still many other top clubs waiting.
