The English Premier League started in August 2022 and will end at the end of May 2023. 20 clubs from 12 cities will play in the competition. After 38 rounds, in which each team will play each other twice. The team with the most points will become the champion of England. Bets on this event are accepted by bet.
Bookmakers have identified five main contenders for the title: Manchester City, Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool and Tottenham. Having studied each of the clubs, it will be possible to conclude which of them has a better chance of winning the trophy. In general, the fight in the Premier League is expected to be serious.
Manchester city
Wards of Josep Guardiola are doing great this season. In the UEFA Champions League, the “citizens” advanced to the playoffs ahead of schedule. In the domestic league after 12 rounds, Manchester City is in second place in the standings and two points behind Arsenal. If not for the defeat at Anfield from Liverpool in the 11th round, the Manchester team would have been at the top of the tournament. However, there is still a long distance ahead and the Sky Blues are able to get ahead of the Gunners.
The Blues have the strongest offense and some of the best defense in the league. Ilkay Gundogan and partners can add to the game plan. Given the game conditions of the Manchester club, the “citizens” are able to get the third league title in a row.
Arsenal
The Gunners have had an extremely strong start this season. In 12 rounds of the Premier League, they managed to score 31 points out of 36 possible, with the result that Arsenal was at the top of the table. At the disposal of Mikel Arteta are young, but skillful players who are able to perform their tasks. It will be difficult for the Gunners to get around the more experienced “citizens”, but the London club is able to fight in the title race for a long time.
The brainchild of Stan Kroenke looks great and may well get at least silver medals.
Manchester United
The Red Devils under the leadership of Eric ten Hag are not stable, but they are a competitive team. At the start of the season, the Manchester club were unexpectedly defeated by Brighton and Brentford. In the ninth round, Manchester United devastatingly lost in the derby to Manchester City – 3:6. At the same time, the brainchild of Manchester United plc. and good cuts. In the Premier League, the Reds managed to beat Liverpool, Arsenal and Tottenham, as well as paint the world with Chelsea on the road. If not for the loss of points in August, by November the inhabitants of Old Trafford would have been in the top three.
If the Mancunians continue to regularly score points, then the Red Devils will have a chance to finish in the top three. However, it will be difficult for Harry Maguire and partners to compete for the “gold”.
Liverpool
The guys of Jurgen Klopp in 12 rounds of the Premier League got four wins and draws, and lost the same number of times. Due to unexpected losses to Nottingham Forest and Leeds, the Scousers found themselves near the equator of the standings. The Reds are 13 points behind the second Manchester City, and 15 points behind the first Arsenal. Even though there is a long distance ahead, it will be almost impossible for the Merseysiders to win back such an impressive lead.
If the Liverpool club starts to collect points more regularly, then Jordan Henderson and company will be able to improve their standings. At the same time, given the current state of the brainchild of the Fenway Sports Group, bronze medals for Liverpool would be quite an acceptable result.
Tottenham
The guys of Antonio Conte can compete for the strongest four, but the club is unlikely to be able to aim for a medal. “Spurs” allow a lot of misfires, impermissible in the title race. For example, in the second half of December, the London team lost to Manchester United and Newcastle, after which they barely defeated the modest Bournemouth.
In order to fight for medals, the “lilac-white” need to start gaining points steadily and stumble less often.
Our forecast
Due to the experience and powerful composition of the Manchester “citizens” should get another championship title. Arsenal look great, but the silver will be the Gunners’ best result this season. Manchester United, Liverpool and Tottenham are extremely unstable and in the rest of the championship these teams will have to compete for the strongest four.
