There appears to be no room for rest in the global sporting calendar, with the European Championships and Copa America being proceeded by an iconic Olympic Games and in the blink of an eye the cut and thrust of the Premier League is back.
Once again it was Manchester City who emerged victorious last term, winning their 4th league title on the spin and etching their name firmly into English football’s record books and Pep Guardiola will be chomping at the bit to make it 5 on the spin.
However, City have once again refrained from investing big money into their project, something that can’t be levelled at Arsenal, as the Gunners look to close the gap on the blues and win their first Premier League title for over two decades. They, along with Chelsea have decided to part with plenty of cash in their pursuit of silverware and it should be intriguing campaigns for both.
Liverpool will be looking to adapt to life after Jurgen Klopp, with Arne Slot now in the hot seat, whilst the likes of Manchester United, Tottenham and Aston Villa will be looking to force their way into the title picture.
Down at the bottom, newly promoted sides Southampton, Ipswich Town and Leicester City will all be looking to avoid the drop and with so much to play for every week, it promises to be another fascinating Premier League season.

Premier League Season Preview & Predictions
—
2024-25 Premier League Outright Winner
—
Manchester City – $2.25
Despite many projections that their period of success is set to come to an end, Manchester City are once again the favourites to lift the Premier League title. Pep Guardiola will have his troops primed and ready for another big campaign and how they would love to make it 5 titles on the spin. Julian Alvarez is the big name departure this summer, with the Argentine moving to Atletico Madrid, with Savio coming in to fill his boots. It will once again be down to the likes of Foden, Haaland and de Bruyne to see City over the line this season and betting against them is never too wise.
Arsenal – $2.90
Having knocked on the door for the past couple of seasons, it now feels as if Arsenal are ready to finally step up and usurp Manchester City. Astronomical sums of money have been thrown at the Arsenal project over the past decade or so and finally it looks as if the financial investment could be coming to roost. Riccardo Calafiori has been brought in, to strengthen an already excellent defence and Mikel Arteta looks to be finally believing that this could indeed be the year for the Gunners.
Liverpool – $8.00
Following on from Jurgen Klopp is the task facing Arne Slot this season and the Dutchman looks to have one of the toughest assignments in world football. Liverpool’s squad remains as dangerous as last season and their fanbase as boisterous as ever, but such was the expectation that Klopp set, that anything other than instant trophies would be regarded as a backward step. Momentum is always key with Liverpool and if they win a couple of games, who knows how far they could go this season.
Chelsea – $21.00
When it comes to expenditure, no side has been able to compete with Chelsea again this season and the blues look ready to challenge the big boys. The absence of European football will help their cause this term and in Enzo Maresca, they have a manager cut from the same cloth as Pep Guardiola. With over 50 players on the books, it is not easy to decipher Chelsea’s best team but if Maresca can do so, who knows how far they could go this season.

2024-25 Premier League Golden Boot Winner
—
Erling Haaland – Manchester City – $1.65
Despite not hitting his stride fully last season, Erling Haaland still managed to notch 27 goals, as City registered another Premier League title. If he can stay fit for the majority of the campaign, there is a feeling that nobody will be able to stop him winning the Golden Boot for three seasons in a row and the Norwegian prides himself on putting the ball in the back of the net.
Mohamed Salah – Liverpool – $11.00
Mohamed Salah and Liverpool ended up running out of steam a little last season, but the Egyptian showed glimpses of his best form throughout the campaign, and he looks set to be the main man for Arne Slot once again. He has the ability to tear teams apart on his day and if he starts the season well, the goals could flow for Salah again this term.
Ollie Watkins – Aston Villa – $15.00
Having cracked the top 4 last season, there is a new sense of optimism surrounding Aston Villa and striker Ollie Watkins is a key part of that. The Englishman enjoyed some impactful performances at Euro 2024 too and he will be eager to showcase his talent in the Premier League once again this season.

2024-25 Premier League To Be Relegated
—
Survival is absolutely key in the Premier League but here are our picks to slip into trouble this season:
Leicester City – $1.55
A point deduction is looming large over Leicester City, as the Premier League continues to grapple in their attempt to stop any team from having the temerity to challenge the established elite and fresh up from the Championship, Steve Cooper’s side could struggle to adapt to life in the big time from the off.
IPswich Town – $1.75
Ipswich are back in the Premier League for the first time in a couple of decades and despite enjoying an incredible run to reach this stage, there is a feeling their bubble could burst at any point. The Tractor Boys made it back-to-back promotions with their superb performances in the Championship last season, but the Premier League is a whole new ball game.
Nottingham Forest – $3.00
Having stayed in the Premier League last season by the skin of their teeth, Nottingham Forest could have yet more points deductions to deal with this term – something they negotiated last season, but they will be under the pump from the outset once again this time around and they could feel the pressure in the relegation scrap.
