*odds as of August 22, 2024
Manchester City (+135, Fanduel): There is no real argument as to why Man City shouldn’t be the favorite to win the EPL again this season. With the league being extremely top-heavy, the number of teams that Man City actually needs to worry about is less than a handful. Of course, it also helps that they are led by one of the best players and coaches in the world.
Arsenal (+175, Bet365): The legendary Arsenal Football Club has fallen just short of the finish line over the past two seasons. Despite having to settle for being the run-up, Arsenal is still in a good position moving forward, as they have a young roster, and they were recently able to sign Benjamin Sesko through the summer transfer window.
Liverpool (+700, Caesars): With Mo Salah leading the charge, Liverpool could be one of the few challengers to Man City this season. During the 2023-24 season, Liverpool finished third in the league in goals scored with 86, as they were able to get strong seasons from Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota.
