Number one contender for the 2025/26 Premier League title

With the 2025/26 Premier League season set to kick off in August, bookmakers have released their list of the tournament's top title contenders.

Liverpool are still the number one candidate for the 2025/26 Premier League title.

According to The Times , Liverpool is being rated the highest by experts and bookmakers, with a probability of winning the 2025/26 Premier League championship of up to 42%, far surpassing Manchester City (14%), Chelsea (13%) or Arsenal (13%).

This figure surprised many people, but also reflected the position and strength of “The Kop” after winning the championship last season. Coach Arne Slot’s team is considered the number one candidate, thanks to the squad being strengthened with contracts such as Florian Wirtz (125 million euros) and Hugo Ekitike (90 million euros).

Meanwhile, Manchester City are rated lower than Liverpool, despite actively adding new players such as Rayan Ait-Nouri or most recently James Trafford (27 million euros). Chelsea are also highly rated after winning the FIFA Club World Cup. But their young squad under the leadership of Enzo Maresca is still doubtful about the stability.

Arsenal, despite adding a series of new players such as Gyokeres and Zubimendi, are expected to compete, but their experience and mettle in the championship race are still questionable.

The 2025/26 Premier League will kick off on August 15. The highlight of the first round of the 2025/26 Premier League will be the match between MU and Arsenal. Meanwhile, Liverpool will face Bournemouth, Man City will visit Wolverhampton and Chelsea will host Crystal Palace.
