Wiggles31 Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 So four huge games coming up which will be pivotal (love that word) to the rest of the season. Villa away - 0-2 win City home - 2-2 draw Arsenal away 2-0 loss Utd home - 2-1 win 7 points out of 12 available which I would be very much happy with. Your predictions?

Villa away - 0-2 win City home - 2-2 draw Arsenal away 2-0 loss Utd home - 2-1 win 7 points out of 12 available which I would be very much happy with. I agree that you would be happy with this. That is my prediction. I predict WLDD which is five points and wouldn't make me happy.
Ultimatt Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa away - 0-2 win - They don't look like scoring without Benteke. They'll probably park it like Leicester so we'll need to learn from our last game. City home - 1-1 draw - Should be entertaining end-to-end. I said 1-1 draw but either team could snatch this 2-1. Arsenal away 1-1 draw - Tough to beat them at Emirates but we match up really well. Mane's pace will destroy Chambers. Our mids are strong against their physically smaller players. Utd home - 1-0 win - Fatigue may be an issue here for both teams. Can't see many chances being created. Could really go 1-0 either way.
niceandfriendly Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa - 0-1 win City - 3-1 win Arsenal - 2-1 loss Utd - 2-0 win Boo-****ing-oom!
PhilippineSaint Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa - 0-2 win City - 2-0 win Arsenal - 0-1 win Utd - 2-0 win Come nobody is going to score against us
CB Fry Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa away - D City home - W Arsenal away L Utd home - D I would like to make it absolutely clear the above, while it looks like a prediction, as it is on a prediction thread, and looks much like all other predictions on prediction threads in history, it isn't. Its a hypothetical set of results demonstrating detailed analysis or something but bears no relation to what I think will happen, although when challenged I will say it is what I could think might or could happen and it's all based on thorough analysis but I don't think it will happen or not, although hypothetically I do. Or don't.
Ziggy Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Eight points would be a great haul from the next four games.
Nolan Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa have only won one home game so far this season. Don't see them ending that run against us. 3 pts for us City have conced 2 in 4 of their 6 away games. Mininmum of 1 pt for us, potentially 3. Arsenal have only beaten 4 teams this season. All currently sit in 14th or below. 3 pt to us. Man U have achieved 3 points from 15 away from home. Only 1 of those matches was against a team above 13th place. 3 Pts to us. Absolutely nothing to fear in any of these matches. the MINIMUM we should achieve from these is 8 points.

Convict Colony Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 we don't play the club history we play their current form and against that lot they are pretty sh*t at the moment (even city). Injuries permitting I see 3 wins and 1 draw
Supersubpuckett Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 one win, two draws if we play well - our defence hasn't been tested by a top quality attack yet and these games will be a true test of our level and potential to sustain a top 4 spot. whatever, we have nothing to lose as everyone seems to expect us to do badly.....will be interesting.
Big Ron fan Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa win 1-0 City win 1-0 Arsenal win 4-1 Utd draw 1-1 10 points
Ian the Red Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa, Win City Win Arsenal draw ManUre Win 10 points from 12 will do very nicely!
jasonb Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa 0-1 City 1-2 Arsenal 1-1 Utd 2-0 7 points
Mallagroth Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 DLLL ...Sorry. Very much hope I'm wrong.

fanimal Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Could see us drawing all 4 games easily, and taking each game in isolation we would probably be happy with that, i.e. take a draw before each fixture. But 4 points out of 12 not great, so would rather win 2 lose 2; so anything over 7 would be really good no dramas, wheels coming off etc. Arsenal away the most difficult.
SNSUN Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 5 points or more would push us over the 30 point mark, so that would be acceptable, but this team, especially defensively, is capable of so much more.
sandwichsaint Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 DLLL ...Sorry. Very much hope I'm wrong. Damn it, Europa League here we come.
sandwichsaint Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa win 2-0 Citeh win 3-1 Arsenal draw 1-1 or 2-2 Utd will be a bit of a free throw if we can take 7 points from the first three ... they look all over the shop at the back ... 3-0? :)
twiglet Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa win 2-1 City lose 3-1 Arsenal draw 1-1 Utd win 2-1 7 points
alpine_saint Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 WDDW = 8 points. Very happy if it happens.
sentry Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa away - 0-2 win City home - 2-1 win Arsenal away 1-1 draw Utd home - 2-2 draw 8 points, but I would be happy with just the win vs villa and draws in city and ars game and dont care about the man u one as I dont think they we be up there come the tail end of the season, they are just way too weak at the back.
Dalek2003 Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa draw City loss Arsenal loss Utd Draw Will nudge us up to 27 points. Not bad, we need to win another 4 or 5 games for absolute safety.
haydnthomasSFC Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa win 1-0 City draw 1-1 Arsenal draw 2-2 Utd Win 3-1 Will keep us in the top four and hopefully city and arsenal keep us there dodgy form
Dark Munster Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa win 1-0 City draw 1-1 Arsenal draw 2-2 Utd Win 3-1 Will keep us in the top four and hopefully city and arsenal keep us there dodgy form Actually I think that would keep us in the top two, which will do very nicely.
The Cat Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 4 losses. Players start handing in transfer requests, Mitchell leaves for Spurs and Les Reed goes back to Charlton his "spiritual home".
St Neel Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 villa 1-2 win (on the lawro logic they have to score eventually and we have to let one in eventually) city 0-2 loss arsenal 1-2 win united 1-1 draw
John Cool Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 We need to win all 4 to be sure of keeping the title in our own hands :-)
SuperMikey Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa W City D Arsenal D Utd W When I looked at the fixture list at the start of the season I don't think I ever could have imagined predicting those results for us! These games will be tough but December is a tough month for us anyway with all the games and a couple of potential banana skins along the way. Personally I think we'll be ok for these 4 though - Villa are shocking atm (although they should've beaten an equally shocking Spurs), City are hit and miss right now, Arsenal is one I am quite worried about but think we have the character to get a decent result, and the Utd game really depends on who they have fit at the time! Either way it'll be an interesting next period leading up to the christmas run-in.
kwsaint Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Somewhere between 0 points and 12 points would be my guess.
Ludwig Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa: W 0-1 City: D 1-1 Arsenal: L 1-0 Utd: D 1-1
SNSUN Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Somewhere between 0 points and 12 points would be my guess. In that case, I'm going for 11.
Professor Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Villa away: W 0 - 2 City home: W 2 - 1 Arsenal away: W 1 - 2 Utd home: W 2 - 0 12 points. But we'll still only be 2nd as Chelsea will win 3 of their 4.
slickmick Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 Man Utd easiest game, then Villa, Man City and Arsenal. 4 wins.
nta786 Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 All four are on TV right? 0 points then- possible one or two draws...
Wiggles31 Posted 12 November, 2014 Author Posted 12 November, 2014 All four are on TV right? 0 points then- possible one or two draws... All barring Arsenal away.
nta786 Posted 12 November, 2014 Posted 12 November, 2014 All barring Arsenal away. Nuh uh- Arsenal game is on BT Sport!
Wiggles31 Posted 13 November, 2014 Author Posted 13 November, 2014 (edited) Nuh uh- Arsenal game is on BT Sport! Amazing!! Bloody working a night shift that night. May have to have explosive diarrhoea that particular evening. Edited 13 November, 2014 by Wiggles31
whelk Posted 13 November, 2014 Posted 13 November, 2014 All four are on TV right? 0 points then- possible one or two draws... Has anyone done any real analysis on our TV win rate since back in PL Must be someone with time on their hands. 2.78 pts per game not on TV this season 0 pts when on TV
Shroppie Posted 13 November, 2014 Posted 13 November, 2014 Has anyone done any real analysis on our TV win rate since back in PL Must be someone with time on their hands. 2.78 pts per game not on TV this season 0 pts when on TV That's just ruined my feel-good state:mad:

Would be about as relevant. Sky, and other broadcasters, mostly pick the games featuring their favoured 'Big Clubs' so Saints' games on TV have mostly been when playing against Man City, Man U, Chelsea, Arsenal, etc and usually away. If the form book has changed so that Saints are the form team when the games are broadcast, the results are more likely to reflect that. Remember as well, that TV cameras are there for every Premier League game, so all that changes from being shown live is the time of KO.
Saint-scooby Posted 14 November, 2014 Posted 14 November, 2014 Villa away - 0-2 win City home - 1-1 draw Arsenal away 1-1 draw Utd home - 1-0 win
NewYorkSaint Posted 14 November, 2014 Posted 14 November, 2014 We will take exactly 6 points from these games. And that will be just fine.
