Manchester City are title favourites once again ahead of the upcoming Premier League season
The 2024/25 Premier League season is nearly upon us with the first game kicking off on Friday 16 August with Manchester United hosting Fulham in the opening match at Old Trafford.
UK Betting Sites are offering betting odds on some of the main outright markets ahead of the campaign with the Premier League title odds arguably the biggest that are given.
Manchester City are the 11/10 favourites with Bet365 to win the league for the fifth year in-a-row with Pep Guardiola's men dominant in the league in the last four seasons with last year's victory coming on the final day.
Arsenal were City's main rivals last season and they are second favourites to win the league this year with the best betting sites for football implying that it'll be a two-horse race for the title.
Mikel Arteta's side will be expecting to put together another title challenge this year and will be hoping to go one better than they did last season where they finished in second place and two points behind City.

What the expert says...
Leicester are heavy favourites to be relegated with Steve Cooper's side 2/5 in the market
Leicester were promoted from the Championship last season after winning the title under Enzo Maresca and that resulted in him moving to Chelsea with the London club signing him as their manager.
Steve Cooper has come into the Foxes to replace him and bookmakers think they'll have a tough campaign coming up this season with the latest odds putting them heavily odds-on at 2/5 to go straight back down.
Ipswich are also odds-on to be relegated this season with Southampton wrapping up the top three in the betting market with the odds suggesting that all three promoted teams will go straight back down for the second season in-a-row.
| Premier League Relegation 24/25 | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Leicester | 2/5 | 71.4% |
| Ipswich | 8/11 | 57.9% |
| Southampton | 11/8 | 42.1% |
| Everton | 13/8 | 38.1% |
| Nottingham Forest | 2/1 | 33.3% |

Erling Haaland has a 60% chance of being Top Goalscorer in the Premier League once again
Erling Haaland is THE man in the Premier League with his two seasons so far resulting in two golden boot awards with last season seeing him score 27 goals in his 31 appearances across the campaign.
Haaland scored a goal every 95 minutes to finish top goalscorer in the league but that was 9 less than what he scored in his debut year in the Premier League back in 2022/23.
Bookmakers say he'll make it three in-a-row in terms of golden boots with the betting odds currently giving an implied probability of 60% that he scores the most goals in the league.
Haaland's odds of 4/6 put him well clear of Liverpool's Mo Salah and Newcastle's Alexander Isak who are the second and third favourites respectively.
| Premier League Top Goalscorer 24/25 | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Erling Haaland | 4/6 | 60.0% |
| Mohamed Salah | 10/1 | 9.1% |
| Alexander Isak | 16/1 | 5.9% |
| Darwin Nunez | 16/1 | 5.9% |
| Ollie Watkins | 16/1 | 5.9% |
| Cole Palmer | 20/1 | 4.8% |
