Best Actor predictions Oscars 2020?

I found a few blogs with lists of potential winners for the 2020 Oscars. James McAvoy performance in (Glass) was pretty sick. Is there a reason why he was forgotten?

Glass was released early in the year and that may be part of the reason why it is isn't being talked about much now. Also, McAvoy played the same character in Split, so it is seems less impressive because we have seen it before. There are a lot of big name actors in critically acclaimed films this year possibly contending for best actor and Glass got mixed reviews. My predictions on who will get nominated for best actor:

Leonardo DiCaprio, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
Robert De Niro, The Irishman
Adam Driver, Marriage Story
Joaquin Phoenix, Joker
Jonathan Pryce, The Two Popes

Other contenders include:
Eddie Murphy, Dolemite is My Name
Roman Griffin Davis, Jojo Rabbit
Adam Sandler, Uncut Gems
Michael B. Jordan, Just Mercy
Christian Bale, Ford V. Ferrari
Antonio Banderas, Pain & Glory
Edward Norton, Motherless Brooklyn
Taron Egerton, Rocketman

I had no idea there was a Dolemite remake.

I'd like to see some nominations for Kang-ho Song for "Parasite" and Paul Walter Hauser for "Richard Jewell" in the best actor category.
