Premier League Winner Predictions

The Premier League 2024/25 season is just around the corner, and fans and betters are buzzing with excitement. They're all wondering which team will take home the title come May next year. With some familiar teams and a few dark horses, the competition is set to be intense.

The usual challengers

Manchester City is the top pick to win their fifth title in a row. They won the league last season by two points from Arsenal. Arsenal is also a strong contender after a stellar season in 2023/24 which ultimately fell down after a run of bad results before xmas, predictions suggesting they could get 90+ points.

Liverpool and Chelsea are back in the hunt too, despite a tough season last time. They've strengthened their teams and are ready to challenge City and Arsenal. How Liverpool will settle into the reign of new manager Slott remains to be seen.

Aston Villa would were early leaders last season will be up there again and Tottenham Hotspur is also aiming for a top-four finish after settling into life without Harry Kane.

Outside bets

While the favourites are strong, there are some outsiders who could surprise us. Newcastle United, who finished well last season, are seen as a dark horse with potential new England manager Eddie Howe getting the best of his squad week in, week out.

Crystal Palace are also expected to improve, possibly causing an upset after the likes of Eze, Guehi and Warton have impressed hugely with England over the summer.

And for a really outside bet, could Leicester City cause a massive upset and take the title again just like in the 2015–16 season!

Chelsea's odds at 16/1 (17.00 in decimal) reflect their improving form under Mauricio Pochettino, while Manchester United and Tottenham both stand at 25/1 (26.00 in decimal), indicating a considerable gap from the top two favorites but still within the possibility for an upset​.


Premier League Relegation Predictions

As the 2024/25 Premier League season unfolds, relegation predictions are a hot topic among football analysis experts and sports punditry discussions.

Relegation Favourites

As with most seasons, the newly promoted teams are by default the favourites to head straight back down in addition to the teams who struggled in the previous season but survived the drop and the 2024/25 season according to the bookmakers is no different.

Newly promoted Leicester, Ipswich and Southhampton along Nottingham Forest, Everton, Brentford and Wolverhampton all face a tough battle despite their history and all with prior Premier League experience.
Squad depth is a worry, especially with frequent injuries and fixture congestion. As games get tougher & more frequent, fatigue could really affect their performance, making relegation more likely.

Here's how the bottom half of the table looked in the 2023/24 Premier League standings:

Leicester City, despite being newly promoted, is the favorite for relegation with odds at 1/2. Ipswich Town follows closely at 5/6, reflecting the typical challenge for newly promoted teams to maintain their Premier League status. Southampton, Everton, and Nottingham Forest are also among the top candidates for relegation​ ​although Everton & Nottingham Forest struggled last season due to inconsistent form and points deductions.

Manchester City and Chelsea, although not realistically expected to be relegated, have odds of 33/1 and 20/1 respectively due to potential Financial Fair Play issues​​.

These odds highlight the precarious nature of the bottom of the Premier League table and the fierce competition among teams to avoid the drop.

More outside bets include Kai Havertz of Arsenal who finally found form in front of goal last season, Saka and even Jamie Vardy on his return to the Premier League with Leicester having already won the golden boot during the 2019-20 Premier League season.
