Valky:
Are you leading somewhere with this question? 
Ok I'll play.. ;P
For me, the similarity I first see about Trelawneys prophecies are 
that they both are about Voldemort. 

How uncanny, it could be that LV, being the Dark Lord and all, is a 
significant subject to the whole of the WW. And so it is in line 
with what Firenze tells, in Centaur and the Sneak OOtP, that true 
seeing has nothing to do with trivial matters of the individual but 
instead gives insight into significant universal events.

OR it could be some hidden connection with LV existing in Trelawney. 
If it is and if that is of any significance I am sure we might find 
some evidence of the prescence of Voldemort during or before the 
prophecy is made in POA. Maybe a prickling in Harrys scar or 
something of the like.

The second part of the question, I am not sure I understand. Do you 
mean to say that the prophecies ae repeated in the books twice, or 
that Trelawney repeats herself when prophesying?
I will assume you mean that Trelawney repeats herself and I think 
that in the POA prophecy that JKR wrote it that way for effect, to 
build suspense, and probably because the prophecy we find in OOtP is 
*carefully worded* and so the repeat line adds a depth that is 
required for it to be accurate. 
In summation I mean in POA the prophecy repeats to establish a style-
blueprint for Trelawney because, the prophecy in OOtP *has* to 
repeat. 

Now I would really like to ask you one question. 
Why do you want to know?
