Who are the favourites to win the Premier League in 2023/24?
Man City
The defending champions once again, Man City are clear favourites, as they always are before every Premier League campaign. But the gulf between them and the second-favourites seems quite significant even at this early stage. The Citizens are looking for a historic fourth league title in a row, and know they can always rely on New Year domination should they start slowly. They don’t appear to be having any early issues, though, perfect after six games. So far there have been wins over Burnley, Newcastle, Sheffield United, Fulham, West Ham and Nottingham Forest, conceding just three goals along the way.
Arsenal
The nearly men of the 2022/23 season, for some time it looked as though Arsenal would be ending their long wait for the Premier League trophy — a first since the Invincibles season of 2003/04. But in the end, Mikel Arteta’s men had to settle for second. While some will predict the 2022/23 as being a fluke, Arsenal look strong and surely can only build on what was a good season overall, if you take away the heartbreak.
The Gunners are unbeaten after six games with 14 points so far.

Liverpool
Perhaps a surprise name this high up the list, after their 2022/23 campaign that saw them finish 17 points behind second-place Arsenal and 22 points behind winners Man City. Although Europa League football was secured, and they were only four points off the top four, Liverpool did have times of struggle last season and it’s actually commendable that they finished where they did. Can Jürgen Klopp’s men climb even further? Well, an incredible comeback win over Newcastle despite going down to 10 men, followed up by a 3-0 win against Aston Villa and another comeback against Wolves before running out 3-1 winners over West Ham which leaves them on 16 points from six games. The early signs are good.
Tottenham
The revolution is being televised. Tottenham endured a miserable 2022/23 despite Harry Kane threatening Erling Haaland for the Golden Boot. Spurs finished eighth, an eye-watering 29 points behind champions Man City and embattled head coach Antonio Conte left before the campaign was done. This summer former Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou was installed, and what a job he’s doing with a Kane-less team so far. Spurs are unbeaten after their opening five games (13 points) and playing scintillating football along the way. They have a penchant for drama too, leaving it deep into second-half injury time to come from behind to beat Sheffield United, and then twice to salvage a point at North London rivals Arsenal.
Man Utd
As mentioned, Man Utd were one of the other sides to finish in the top four in 2022/23 and some even counted them in the title race for parts of the season — though they were never really testing Man City and Arsenal. It’s been a tough start for Erik ten Hag in his second season in charge, with narrow and hard-fought home wins over Wolves (1-0) and Nottingham Forest (3-2) coming either side of away losses at Tottenham (2-0) and Arsenal (3-1). The 20-game unbeaten home run came to an end too, with a 3-1 defeat to Brighton on the return from the international break. It’s the first time Man Utd have lost as many as three of their opening five Premier League matches. But a two-game losing Premier League streak on the road did come to an end as Man Utd beat Burnley at Turf Moor.

Brighton
Roberto De Zerbi’s men are set to play Brighton’s first-ever continental matches, the next goal for Brighton will be to make sure they are regulars in the European competition and constantly fighting for the top four thanks to the work the Italian tactician has done (with not a lot of financial backing). But what about a title challenge? It may not be on the fans’ minds right now, as they plan their European tour, but it may not be out of the question if things go their way. Especially if they can consistently perform as they did against Man Utd.
Chelsea
Chelsea are embarking on yet another new era under yet another new manager, with Mauricio Pochettino replacing interim Frank Lampard. With all the money they have already spent it would be an absolute disaster for them not to be challenging high up the table this season. Five points from their opening six games leaves Chelsea looking on fragile ground again.
