Pep Guardiola’s men are 6/5 with sportsbook CopyBet to win their fifth title in a row and their ninth in the Premier League era.

Their closest challengers in the last two seasons have been Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal and the Gunners are 9/5 shots for a first top flight crown since 2004. After that there’s a jump to Liverpool at 7/1, Chelsea at 20/1 and Manchester United and Tottenham at 25/1.

When it comes to the top-four market, Manchester City and Arsenal are predictably short prices, with Liverpool and Chelsea, both under new managers, the current next best. Chelsea, now managed by Enzo Maresca, will be the subject of much interest this season and are 6/4 to finish in the Champions League places.

In the top goalscorer market, Erling Haaland is once again expected to lead the way and is heavy odds on favourite at 13/20. Last season’s success stories like Newcastle’s Alexander Isak (14/1) and Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins (16/1) will be popular picks while could Mohamed Salah shine under new manager Arnie Slot? The Egyptian is 10/1 to top the charts.

The newly promoted sides, Ipswich and Southampton, face significant challenges according to the bookies, with all three tipped to go straight back down. Leicester are 2/5 for relegation, with Ipswich at 8/11 and Southampton 5/4. Everton are next in the danger line at 7/4.
