Liverpool
As Jurgen Klopp strolled off the Anfield turf for one final time he led the home fans in a slightly awkward ‘Arne Slot’ chant to usher in the new era.
Slot may have won the title in the Netherlands, but the Premier League is a different ball game, as he looks to fill Klopp’s shoes.
However, he’s taken to English football like a duck to water, with his side top the lot after 11 games with 28 points on the board, with only a defeat to Nottingham Forest and draw with Chelsea blotting their record book.
Three of the club’s biggest stars – Virgil van Dijk, Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold – are entering the final year of their contract and success may be pivotal if they’re to stay.
Next Fixture: Southampton (A) Sun. Nov 24 – 14:00
Manchester City
Pep Guardiola is into the final year of his contract in Manchester, with speculation mounting that he’s finally grown sick of the Mancunian rain.
If he does leave he will want to end his reign on the ultimate high and defend his crown.
Liverpool’s form means Manchester City have slipped as title favourites with Paddy Power after a less-than-stellar start to the season.
Erling Haaland is their key man and looks set to win the Golden Boot for a third year in a row, although he has struggled to find the back of the net in recent weeks. Rodri is set to miss the whole campaign, however, and he could be a key miss.
Next Fixture: Tottenham (H) Sat. Nov 23 – 17:30
Arsenal
Mikel Arteta’s team have slipped to third favourites following a disappointing start to the season in which they have won less than half of their 11 games.
The Gunners added depth in the summer, with Italian star Ricardo Calafiori coming into the defence and the experienced Raheem Sterling arriving on loan, but they still don’t have an out-and-out proven goalscorer.
Arsenal are without a win in their last four league games and Arteta could find himself under pressure if results don’t start to turn.
Next Fixture: Nottingham Forest (A) Sat. Nov 23 – 15:00
Chelsea
The Blues have been nothing short of a shambles at times thanks to their controversial owner Todd Boehly.
However, despite his lack of experience, new boss Enzo Maresca has breathed new life into the west London side.
Maresca wasn’t afraid to make some big decisions in the summer culling star names such as Sterling, Conor Gallagher and Ben Chilwell from his squad.
He still possesses a lot of quality though, particularly in the attacking third with Cole Palmer, Nicolas Jackson and Noni Madueke already scoring plenty so far this campaign.
Next Fixture: Leicester City (A) Sat. Nov 12:30
