The Premier League campaign gets underway in just ten days’ time and as such, each manager is finalising their preparations for what promises to be a hugely competitive campaign.
Manchester City were crowned Premier League champions at the end of the 2022/23 campaign and Pep Guardiola’s men are unsurprisingly installed as firm odds-on favourites to win their sixth Premier League title in seven seasons at the close of 2023/24. With no Champions League action to distract them next season, Liverpool are next in the betting at a best price of 17/2 while Arsenal are close behind at a general 9/1.
Of the sides promoted from the Championship at the end of last season, Burnley are deemed to be the side most likely to finish in the best position in the Premier League at a general price of 4/9 while play-off winners Luton Town are favourites to drop straight back down to the second tier at the first time of asking at a general 2/5.
