Opta predictions for Premier League table
And here’s a look at the percentages of each team finishing in each position from our friends at stats company Opta.
Who will win the Premier League title?
The title race is going to be between Arsenal and Manchester City once again. That is obvious, but this feels like the season Arsenal could finally overtake City to win it all. Two of the three writers have Liverpool to finish third and they could hang in there, but there is a very definite top two in the Premier League.
Who will qualify for the Champions League?
Top four is going to be very tight with Man United and Tottenham improving their squads, while Liverpool’s squad has stayed very similar but Jurgen Klopp leaving and Arne Slot coming in is a huge change. The likes of Aston Villa and Newcastle will also be in the mix and two of our three writers have picked Newcastle to finish in the top four as they believe Eddie Howe’s side will have a big rebound after injuries ravaged them last season.
Who will have a bad season?
We’re all expecting Chelsea to struggle and finish way off the top four as new players and a new manager (Enzo Maresca) have once again arrived at Stamford Bridge and it’s all a bit of a mess. We believe Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth will regress, and it will be intriguing to keep an eye on Brighton, Crystal Palace and Fulham as they’ve all lost big players this summer and Wolves’ small squad has already been hit by injuries.
Who will be relegated from the Premier League this season?
As for the relegation battle, well, it’s going to be extremely tough for the three new boys. Leicester City have a new manager in Steve Cooper and the Foxes have potential punishment for financial issues hanging over them. Ipswich Town will be solid but may not have enough quality to stay up, just like Luton last season. Southampton have made some intriguing signings and seem the best set to give themselves a chance staying up. Two of our writers believe Nottingham Forest will go down, while Brentford are a team to keep an eye on as they continue to figure out what to do with the Ivan Toney situation.
