Premier League 2025-26 predictions: Sportstar writers make their choices for a new season

Arsenal, City, Liverpool, Villa – Pranay

Man City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea. All three clubs have been busy in the summer and have brought in many talents from all over the world. Liverpool and Chelsea will respectively have the Shield and Club World Cup triumphs to use as a boost for the new season, while Arsenal probably seems to continue to «trust the process» under Mikel Arteta. – Joan

Liverpool, Manchester City, Arsenal, Chelsea. There doesn’t seem to be much to separate those three sides Quale-Qualy. All three are in different stages of development, but I think they can lift themselves away from the pursuit package. – Aditya

Arsenal, Liverpool, Man City, Brighton. The top three of last season choose themselves. There is a risk that the city will lose weight after the efforts of the World Cup in the club, while Rodri’s fitness remains crucial for the season. Brighton can be the surprise period in the top four – Aashin

Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea – Saikat

Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester City. I don’t think people like Manchester United and Tottenham can get Hotspur Champions League, although I expect that they will end much better last season than their horrible. – Rajdeep

Dark horse

Bournemouth. Andoni Iraola is all impressed since taking over the Reigns in the South Coast Club. Despite the most important expenditure in the defense, Bournemouth still seems to be a side that is able to beat his weight to try to set up claim for a European place. – Anish

Aston Villa – Pranay

Sunderland. Sunderland has taken a page from Nottingham Forest’s book and spends more than £ 130 million in the summer after promoting the championship. After bringing in people like Granit Xhaka, Reinildo Mandava and Marc Guiu, who say that Sunderland cannot survive and end up 16th or 17th, positions in which some of the ‘TOP’ teams of the competition ended last season. – Joan

Brentford. Brentford has lost important figures in managers Thomas Frank and players Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa, but it has held Mikkel Damsgaard and Kevin damage, both of whom flew under the radar last season. If a team can be trusted to have a plan for this type of turnover, it is Brentford. – Aditya

Brighton. After having brought only 5 points short of a Champions League place last season, Fabian Hurzeler’s side has the potential to make a large push for a European place, possibly even the Champions League. – Aashin

Brighton. The Fabian Hürzeler team finished eighth last season, five points of fifth place Newcastle, despite struggling with different injuries for important players. With very few abnormalities from the team in the summer and some smart recruitment, Brighton can beat his weight this season. – Saikat

Manchester United. I can already hear the ‘sighs’ after reading the name, but it can be a hit or a miss with the Ruben Amorim side. He seems to have received the players he wanted, those who match the formation that he is so strong with. United could surprise us all. – Rajdeep

Top scorer

Erling. The heavy investment of Liverpool in attack this season could see the goals that were distributed more evenly over their front line and that could help Haaland regain his crown. – Anish

Erling – Pranay

Erling. There are three things certainly in life – death, taxes and erling scoring goals from Haaland. The Norwegian has scored 124 times in 146 games for Man City, and with Mohamed Salah slowly get older and Alexander Isak still thinking about entering a throw, it seems a perfect opportunity for Haaland to run a goal for goal. – Joan

Erling. He is perhaps the most boring choice to make, but Haaland scored 22 Premier League goals in a ‘bad’ season for Manchester City last year, and it would not fail to expect him to bounce back again. – Aditya

Mo is wrong – The Egyptian will break a few more records – the oldest player to win the Golden Boot at 34 and to keep the title for most Golden Boot victories (5). – Aashin

Erling – Saikat

Viktor. According to the form that he was in Portugal in the last two seasons, the 27-year-old Arsenal Forward was able to ride on the happiness of beginners and pack the Golden Boot. – Rajdeep

Player to pay attention

Jorgen Strand Larsen. Strikers in relegation endangered teams are often difficult to assess the lack of goals. But by scoring 14 and helping another four in his debut -PL campaign, Larsen Bright shot in a wrestling Wolves outfit. With another solid year, he can be contrary to a top six in the course of a year. – Anish

Florian Wirtz. – Pranay

John Arias – Colombian attacker Jhon Arias may not be a young, South American prospect such as Chelsea’s Estevao. The performance of the 27-year-old for Fluminense in the club World Cup, where he picked up three player-of-the-match Awards during his run to the semi-final, is the proof that it is not too late to make a name for himself in the larger competitions. – Joan

Joao Pedro. Chelsea has been looking for a player to lead the border, and the versions of Pedro at the club World Cup were a promising audition. He connected well with Cole Palmer and finished sharply, making him one to keep an eye on this season. – Aditya

Matheus Cunha. He may be spectacularly good or becomes the newest victim in the Vortex of Doom Ie Manchester United – Aashin

Martin Zubimendi. The arrival of Zubimendi is expected to considerably strengthen the midfield of the Gunners. The Spaniard is known for its ability to control midfield, and offers a solid anchor that will upgrade the stability of the team. In addition to his defensive ability, he also brings a much -needed creative element to the team. – Saikat

Hugo Ekitike. He has already shown us a glimpse of what he can do in the match against Bournemouth. The Liverpool man can also be in the race for the Golden Boot. – Rajdeep

Relegation picks

Burnley, Leeds, Brentford, the investment of Sunderland in experience can be vital, because the club wants to immediately banish the series of promoted teams. Brentford’s point on Keith Andrews is a risk that is rarely taken in English football from the top flight. With the departure of Bryan Mbeumo and the possible exit of Yoanne Wissa, the team can struggle for goals that can ultimately spell Doom for his PL -stay – Anish

Everton, Leeds, Sunderland – Pranay

Burnley, Leeds United, Brentford. With Sunderland dubbed like the dark horses, the Wishful Thinking would be to assume that the other two promoted clubs – Burnley and Leeds United – will also experience success. In the meantime, the exit of important players such as Bryan Mbeumo and Christian Nørgaard and coach Thomas Frank and the lack of the right replacements have set the risk of falling down. – Joan

Leeds, Sunderland, Wolves. Finding goals is always crucial to stay on, and all three of the promoted parties seem to be a bit lacking for me. Burnley, however, had a record-breaking defense record that may simply be able to maintain them, while the replacements of Wolves for Matheus Cunha and Rayan Ait-Nouri are incredibly unchanged, making them potential candidates for relegation. – Aditya

Brentford, Leeds, Burnley. Brentford was able to break through the series of all three promoted teams that fell it next year. – Ailan
