Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024

The FA-CUP game will give Manchester City a lot of motivation for the Premier League. They have to play Manchester United this Sunday.

This match is very important for Manchester City, even though they are the favorites, especially Manchester United in the last few meetings have always had difficulty beating City and also United are in doubt again after previously showing good progress because their young striker consistently scored goals but now is currently suffering from an injury, but United is still cannot be underestimated because United is targeting to get into the top four so resistance from United will be troublesome for City, and despite City big win over Luton's in the FA Cup, City in the English Premier League is actually in not very good condition as Haaland hasn't scored in the last three games, and City only scored three goals in the last three matches, so there are indeed things that are different for City when they play in the FA Cup and in the English Premier League, and my prediction is that United has a chance of getting 1 point in this match.

Manchester United will be an easy challenge for Manchester City on Sunday because, for the past years, Manchester United has been finding it hard to win against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium. If Manchester United perform the way they did against Fulham at Old Trafford, the job will be so easy for Manchester City.

I don’t think it will be an easy game for Manchester City because in recent games Manchester United seem to have improved recently in their game play and now that Hojlund seems to have found himself in the league now is something to worry about so Manchester City cannot lose guard in this game. It is a derby match so we can’t expect it to be easy even if Manchester City ends up winning i believe it will be a very tough match as usual.

Now that Haaland and Hojlund have now found form It will be very interesting to see the two of them battle it out to prove who is better among themselves. It’s obvious that Hojlund can do more with the ball at his feet than Haaland but Haaland is more clinical in my opinion and with De Bruyne and Manchester City team Haaland has more advantage to win the battle and score more goals in the match than Hojlund. I love them both and will love to see the two of them on the scoresheet.

It was supposed to be a tough match because Manchester City and Manchester United are big clubs, and it is also a derby match that both clubs want to win to prove they are the kings of Manchester. When it comes to the Manchester derby, Manchester City always wins easily against Manchester United. Haaland will perform better than Hojlund because Manchester City will dominate the match and create more chances, while Manchester United will play defensive football and depend on a counterattack to score goals.
