English Premier League 2024/25 season preview
Follow Marathonbet’s football predictions for the English Premier League, which is regarded by many as the best league in the world. After a thrilling campaign last season, in which Manchester City claimed another EPL title and their sixth in the last seven years, how will the 2024/25 season unfold?
Manchester City and Arsenal fought tooth and nail in an intense battle for the title last season, with the destiny of the trophy only decided on the final day. This season, Liverpool are the team to catch at the top of the table, with Arsenal being the closest side challenging the Reds. At the bottom of the table, Southampton look doomed to relegation already. The bottom four sides are starting to be cut adrift from the rest of the pack, with the three teams promoted from the Championship last season filling three of those bottom four places.
With the winter transfer window now closed, how are your team faring in the 2024/25 Premier League season?
Who are the favourites to win the Premier League 2024/25?
Arne Slot is looking likely to win the Premier League trophy at his first attempt. After taking over from the hugely popular Jürgen Klopp at Liverpool, the Dutchman has seen his side maintain their place at the top of the table since early November. Indeed, Liverpool’s confidence in the depth of their squad meant that they didn’t bring in a single player during the winter transfer window.
Arsenal have finished runners-up in the last two seasons; however, on both occasions they looked likely winners for large parts of each season. Can they reverse that statistic this season and come from behind to snatch the title in 2025? It was no secret that the Gunners were trying to find a striker in the transfer window, with Ollie Watkins rumoured to be a target, but they ultimately failed to bring anyone in. With Gabriel Jesus out injured for the season, and Bukayo Saka unlikely to make a return before the start of April, will a lack of firepower scupper Arsenal’s title challenge?
The surprise of the season has been the struggles of Manchester City. City were chasing a fifth successive title, but a run of four defeats at the start of November saw them drop to fifth place, and since then they have failed to make it back into the top three. Pep Guardiola’s side were the biggest spenders in the winter transfer window as they tried to arrest their poor form of late, although they will need a miraculous run to contend for the title. They will hope the signings of Vitor Reis, Omar Marmoush and Nico González will be enough to cement at least a top-four finish.
Chelsea looked to be serious title challengers in mid-December, but a run of five matches without a win saw them fall away from the top two places. Whilst Cole Palmer is having a season to remember, too many of his teammates have failed to find any consistency. This is most noticeable at the back, with goalkeeper Robert Sánchez having made several errors that have led to goals throughout the season. Wesley Fofana has also picked up another long-term injury, and manager Enzo Maresca seems uncertain of what his best centre-back pairing is. João Félix has also left on loan to AC Milan, with the talented Portuguese seemingly surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge.
Not many pundits predicted that Nottingham Forest would be in the conversation for a Champions League place, let alone an outside chance of the title. However, manager Nuno Espírito Santo has worked wonders with his side. New Zealander Chris Wood has led the line impressively and, by the start of February, he had already surpassed his best ever scoring total in a Premier League season.

Premier League top-four challengers 2024/25
Aston Villa have found it difficult to maintain their form from last season, which earned them a place in the Champions League. The Villains are still within touching distance of the top four and Unai Emery has used the winter transfer window to strengthen his squad. They have signed Donyell Malen, whilst also bringing in Marco Asensio, Marcus Rashford and Axel Disasi on loan. Meanwhile, striker Jhon Durán has moved to Al Nassr in a deal worth over £70m.
Newcastle were looking likely to miss out on European football for the second successive season, but a run of six successive victories from mid-December has put Eddie Howe’s side back in the mix for a top-four finish. However, with the Geordies looking over their shoulder on account of the FFP regulations, there were no incomings in January, and the failure to strengthen their squad may hamper their chances of a European finish.
Bournemouth exceeded expectations when they finished around the mid-table mark last season, gaining their best-ever Premier league total of 48 points. The Cherries are well on their way to exceeding that total this season as they scrap for a position in the top six. They have been assisted by goals from Justin Kluivert, who had already exceeded his best-ever goal tally in any previous season by the start of February.
Premier League teams looking at a mid-table finish 2024/25
Ruben Amorim has had a baptism of fire as Manchester United manager, with the Red Devils firmly ensconced in the bottom half of the table. The Portuguese manager currently has the worst points record of any United manager over the same starting period of games since Sir Alex Ferguson retired. He has also had a public falling out with Marcus Rashford, which saw the striker loaned out to Aston Villa in February.
Tottenham have also struggled this season and are closer to a relegation place than a European finish. However, Spurs have had cruel luck with injuries this season, especially to their defensive players. Just as some of the players with longer-term injuries edged closer to a return, Radu Dragusin became the latest to face an extended period on the sidelines after picking up an ACL injury.
Brighton started the season with 31-year-old Fabian Hürzeler in charge, with the German becoming the youngest permanent head coach in Premier League history. His side are currently in mid-table and they have not made any big moves in the winter transfer market.
After two seasons yo-yoing between the Championship and the EPL, Fulham look set for a mid-table finish, which would extend their current run in the top-tier to a fourth successive season. With no incoming or outgoing players in January, the settled Fulham squad may still hold outside hopes of a top six finish.
Despite losing Ivan Toney to the Saudi Pro League, Brentford find themselves some distance above the relegation places. Brian Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa have both stepped up in front of goal and are each in double figures for goals scored. This has been important for the Bees, as striker Igor Thiago managed just four matches after returning from injury before heading back to the treatment table in early December.
Oliver Glasner sees his Crystal Palace side just below the half-way mark in the table at the end of the transfer window. They lost defender Trevoh Chalobah when he was recalled from his loan by his parent club, Chelsea, although Palace have seen out-of-favour Blues defender, Ben Chilwell, move to Selhurst Park for the remainder of the season.
Julen Lopetegui started the season as West Ham manager, although he only lasted six months at the reins at the East-London club before being relieved of his duties. Ex-Brighton and Chelsea boss, Graham Potter, took over the hot seat in January, with his first task being to plug one of the leakiest defences in the EPL. Potter should have enough points in hand to keep his side out of the relegation battle, whilst to bolster his forward line he has brought in Evan Ferguson, whom he managed during his time at Brighton.
Another managerial change saw Sean Dyche finally put out of his misery at Everton, with the Toffees flirting dangerously with the bottom three places. Everton returned to the tried-and-tested formula when they brought back David Moyes for his second spell in charge. The Scotsman had an immediate impact, winning three of his four EPL matches since his return. Moyes brought in Carlos Alcaraz on loan from Flamengo on the final day of the winter transfer window.
The battle to avoid Premier League relegation in 2024/25
Of the current bottom four teams, Wolves are the only side who were in the EPL last season. A poor start saw Gary O’Neil relieved of his duties in December, with Portuguese coach Vitor Pereira taking over the managerial duties. As a gap develops between Wolves and the fifth-bottom side, Pereira knows there is little margin for error if the Midlanders are to retain their top-flight status. Wolves have strengthened their squad in the transfer window by signing African players Emmanuel Agbadou, Nasser Djiga and Marshall Munetsi.
Leicester City were one of the first clubs to blink this season, with Steve Cooper not lasting beyond November before he was dismissed after just 12 matches. The Foxes took a chance on Ruud van Nistelrooy, after the Dutchman had a short successful stint as caretaker manager at Manchester United. However, seven losses in a row between mid-December and mid-January saw Leicester firmly stuck in the bottom three, and a comprehensive 4-0 loss against one of their relegation rivals, Everton, was a major setback.
Following successive promotions from League One and the Championship, Ipswich Town’s return to the Premier League after a 22-year absence may prove to be short-lived. A 2-0 victory over Chelsea to end 2024 has proven to be an outlier, as the Tractor Boys continue to find points hard to come by. Kieran McKenna will hope the recent loan signing of Julio Encisco from Brighton can give them fresh impetus.
Southampton have not been outside the bottom three places in the EPL since the third week of the season. With the Saints now sitting some points adrift at the bottom of the table, an escape to safety seems an unlikely prospect. There have been several incomings and outgoings during the winter transfer window, but the volume of players moving suggests that this may also be with the Championship in mind for next season.
