They are different in my POV, one is a prediction thread and the other is a discussion thread. But you have a point the same on other comments on the new thread. Yet, i doubt the other one will be trashed/locked, its been there for months already and probably it was reported many times already.
They are just the same thing. The first that was created was a prediction thread. If you check what is discussed on the prediction thread, it is distinct that the thread is about prediction and discussion about English Premier League. There was no need to created the second thread which is the discussion thread. I remember when I was posting very well on those threads, I only use the prediction thread which was created by Trofo and left all other ones because I do not want to repeat myself.

These two threads discuss the same topic. From my understanding if a topic has already been posted the duplicate thread should be deleted, locked, or moved to the Archival section. The duplicate discussion thread currently has 43 pages and has not yet been locked or moved to the archival section. Is there any reason why the duplicate discussion still exists?

This is nice, but I think that reporting directly to a moderator in charge of the section would have helped. I have seen countless of these and to be reporting them one by one by creating topics might be cumbersome and lits the forum. Perhaps a dedicated topic should be opened for this purpose so that it can be easily fetched by moderators to delete or otherwise depending on the content therein. This is because it is not all that people call similar topics that have the same content. I have seen many of such too, so we should also be sensitive to that. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/premier-league-20232024-discussion-thread-5457586 (Duplicate)

Two threads overlap each other but it seems the thread hosted by Trofo is a bigger one, with bigger range of discussions like it describes itself as a thread for discussions on everything in Premier League. I see that the second thread is smaller but posters likely can discuss everything in it too. Even two threads have different descriptions, posters and posts aren't too different.https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/premier-league-20232024-discussion-thread-5457586 (Duplicate)

I recalled there were some complaints about Gambling discussion board and threads in it. Consequently, some forum members decided to host self-moderated threads. My guess is @blue Snow created his thread with this intention, to reduce spam.

Have you report the thread by yourself? if not then I don't see any reason why you open up this topic.
Why you need to cherry pick those two topics? there are another two topics about Premier League.
1. ⚽ English Premier League Season: 2023/2024
2. Sportsbet.io's English Premier League Football Pool Discussion Thread
Someone could argue that thread is only for a specific group and another one has moderation to reduce spams, that's correct, then why not lock the two topics that posted by @OP?
There are two problems in this case:
1. User, not report the post.
2. Moderator, less moderation.
