The upcoming season presents a fresh opportunity for Premier League teams to challenge Pep Guardiola’s City, a feat no team has accomplished since Liverpool’s triumph in the 2019/20 season. City’s recent dominance in the league has set new benchmarks in English football.
As the new season approaches, uncertainties loom over the top Premier League contenders following Jurgen Klopp’s departure and Arsenal’s near-misses in the past seasons.
As we bid farewell to a thrilling summer of soccer and welcome the new club season, The Sporting News previews the 2024/25 campaign commencing on August 16 and concluding on May 25.
Predictions and Front-Runners for the 2024/25 Premier League Title

Arsenal, coming close in recent seasons, remain a strong contender. Liverpool faces uncertainties after Klopp’s exit, while other clubs lack the firepower to mount a significant challenge.

Predictions for the 2024/25 Premier League Title
Until a team can surpass Manchester City, they remain the favorites to clinch another Premier League title. However, doubts persist about their sustainability over a full season due to key departures and injuries.
Arsenal’s consistent performances in recent seasons make them an attractive choice based on value. Liverpool faces turmoil, while other contenders like Tottenham lack the necessary balance for a title challenge. Chelsea, despite potential improvements, face setbacks which could hinder their progress.
Best bet: Arsenal to win the Premier League title (+165)
Relegation Predictions for 2024/25 Premier League Season
Newly promoted teams often face relegation challenges, with clubs like Leicester City, Southampton, and Ipswich Town at risk.
Historically, newly promoted sides don’t always drop immediately, and other established teams like Nottingham Forest and Everton could face relegation threats this season.
Nottingham Forest’s squad overhaul poses risks, while Everton’s financial constraints may impact their survival chances, despite a strong managerial presence.
Best bet: Ipswich Town (-225), Southampton (+100), and Nottingham Forest (+250) to be relegated
