Man City
After a couple of sensational seasons, British Bookmakers offer former champions Man City as the favourites to take the 2020/21 Premier League title.
Pep Guardiola’s side secured a domestic quadruple by winning the Premier League, League Cup, FA Cup along with the Community Shield last season, and had a superb start to this season’s campaign, by beating Liverpool in the Community Shield.
Man City only lost 4 matches last season, and although it was one of the closet finishes in history, City managed to bag the title by 1 point ahead of Liverpool.
Having won by a clear 19 point lead the previous season, Man City will be hoping for a similar outcome and a 5th Premier League victory in the space of 9 years.
Guardiola’s squad should have a pretty easy opener against West Ham, before meeting Spurs, who are one of the other top contenders, in their first home match.
Without a doubt, Man City have one of the best squads in the competition, with world-class players such as Raheem Sterling, Sergio Aguero and Gabriel Jesus up front, and Bernardo Silva in midfield, alongside Rodri who recently joined from Atletico Madrid.
They look to be in fantastic form heading into the new season Premier League season, and a victory would cap Man City’s 125th Anniversary season in perfect style.
Liverpool
Liverpool had an amazing season last year, despite the fact that they are the only team to ever take so many points without actually winning the Premier League.
Although this was a major disappointment to the Reds, they went on to record their 6th Champions League victory in a the final against Premier League rivals Spurs.
The Reds have improved every season under Jurgen Klopp, and last season’s performance showed a strong and confident side, and one that you could see winning the Premier League.
The European Champions will be determined to deny Man City a much-coveted hat-trick of Premier League titles, and Liverpool are expected to be their biggest challengers.
Klopp hasn’t changed things up too much during the transfer window, and given he has a solid squad already in place; this could prove to be a huge advantage as the start of the season.
Liverpool have a pretty easy run of opening matches against Norwich, Southampton, Burnley and Newcastle, with Arsenal being the only real challenge.
If Liverpool can get some decent points on the scoreboard from these clashes, they will be in a great position to stay ahead of the pack and challenge Man City for the title.
Spurs
After achieving a top 4 finish in the Premier League for the 4th season in a row, Spurs also went on to make the Champions League final last season.
Although they suffered defeat at the hands of Liverpool, they had a thrilling season, and are once again up there with the bookmakers favourites to win the Premier League.
Pochettino has certainly made his mark on Spurs, however, after 5 seasons in charge, he is still waiting to bring some silverware back to the new stadium in North London.
This season is being hailed as Tottenham’s make or break season.
Pochettino has a strong squad in place, which has been further enhanced by the signing of highly-rated Tanguy Ndombele from Lyon for a club record fee.
They have also settled into their new stadium well and have shown what they are capable of.
An opening fixture against Aston Villa shouldn’t be too challenging, but Spurs then face defending title holders Man City and also come up against Arsenal a few matches later.
It’s not an ideal start to the season, but if Spurs can deliver in these games and put points on the table early on in the competition, Pochettino could finally take home some silverware.
Man Utd
Man Utd may be bookmakers 4th favourites for the 2020/21 Premier League title, but they had a dismal finish to last season, ending up in 6th place having won only 2 of their last 7 matches.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer took over from Mourinho towards the end of last season, and although the Utd side looks a bit chaotic, it’s clear that they certainly have the talent in the squad to win.
Man Utd may boast some of the best players in the Premier League, but unfortunately they don’t seem to possess the hunger that they once did under Sir Alex Ferguson.
Without a doubt they can still play to a spectacular level, but glimpses have been few and far between, and they really need to come together to be strong contenders this season.
Pre-season fixtures showed that they are playing a more consistent game, with 5 wins and a draw from 6 matches, and if they can continue this form then they'll be in with a decent chance.
Solskjaer’s men take on Chelsea in what is set to be a difficult opening match, however they then meet Wolves, Crystal Palace, Southampton and Leicester City in their next 4 fixtures, where they should be able to get early points on the board.
Chelsea
Chelsea come into the upcoming 2020/21 Premier League season under newly appointed manager Frank Lampard, following the departure of Sarri in June.
It was a mixed bag for Chelsea last season as they only managed to secure 3rd place in the competition, however they successfully won the Europa League and were undefeated throughout the entirety of the competition.
It will be an interesting season for the London side, not only because Lampard is in charge, but also given the fact that they lost key player Eden Hazard to Real Madrid.
There has been quite a bit of drama at Stamford Bridge during the summer, most notably the imposed transfer ban which has been imposed for 2 windows.
Although they will fight the ruling, it puts Chelsea in a less than ideal situation, especially with Hazard leaving which has undoubtedly put them in a much weaker position.
Luckily Chelsea are a pretty solid team, and they always have the potential to do well.
If they can hold up against Man Utd in their opening fixture, they then have a few easier matches against Leicester, Norwich, Sheffield Utd and Wolves that they should bag points from.
British Bookmakers offer Chelsea as one of the top teams in the competition, and if Lampard can get all of his players to perform consistently, Chelsea could do quite well.
Arsenal
Unai Emery’s Arsenal side haven’t managed to finish in the top 4 of the Premier League in the last 3 seasons, however they only lost out a top 4 spot by 1 point to Spurs last season.
Although they had a terrible end to the last years premier League campaign, only winning 1 of their last 4 fixtures, the result was an improvement on the 2 previous seasons.
Emery has managed to land some promising new players during the transfer window, most notably talented winger Nicolas Pepe from Lille and William Saliba from Saint-Etienne.
Arsenal have a very talented squad, with some fantastic players in the line up and there is absolutely no reason why they can’t at least secure a top 4 spot this season.
Unfortunately for Arsenal, they don’t have the easiest of starts to their campaign, and their opening run of fixtures is a bit of a mixed bag.
First up is Newcastle, who they should easily beat, however they also face Liverpool and Spurs in their first 4 matches, which could prove much more challenging for Emery's side.
After shocking starts to their last 2 Premier League seasons, Arsenal will really need to get some points on the board early on, if they want to keep their dreams of a top 4 finish alive.
