Who will win the Premier League title in 2025/26?
Liverpool ended the 2024/25 campaign as champions, winning their 20th title, but will they be the favourites to do it again?
The Reds have lost a star name in Trent Alexander-Arnold, who has left to join Real Madrid, but they have already replaced him with Jeremie Frimpong, while other exciting signings Florian Wirtz and Milos Kerkez are widely expected to join next.

Manchester City will surely be looking to make up for a disappointing 2024/25 season, though, as their run of four titles in a row finally came to an end as they slipped to third place.
Meanwhile, Arsenal will be hoping they can end a frustrating run of three runners-up finishes in a row and finally get their hands on the trophy.
