Newly crowned Premier League champions Liverpool 15-8 favourites to retain title in 2025-26

Liverpool sealed the Premier League title in emphatic fashion on Sunday, beating Tottenham 5-1 at Anfield, and bet365 make the Reds 15-8 favourites to retain their crown in 2025-26.

Goals from Luis Diaz, Alexis Mac Allister, Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah, as well as a Destiny Udogie own goal, helped Liverpool crush Spurs to move 15 points clear of Arsenal with four matches remaining.

However, bet365 anticipate a closer title race next season and Manchester City are priced up at 9-4 to win the league with the Gunners just behind them in the betting at 5-2. 

Fast-finishing Newcastle are 12-1 with Chelsea 20-1, Aston Villa and Manchester United at 33-1 and Tottenham 66-1. 

Arne Slot's Liverpool had been 15-2 third-favourites behind City and Arsenal in this term's ante-post betting but a flying start to the campaign meant they were 6-5 market leaders by November 10 and 1-4 at the start of 2025.

Manchester City's title defence never got going but they are still on course for silverware thanks to a 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest in the second FA Cup semi-final.

Rico Lewis put the Citizens ahead in the second minute and Josko Gvardiol doubled their lead early in the second half to set up a clash with Crystal Palace in the final on May 17.

City are 4-11 to lift the trophy while Palace, who thrashed Villa 3-0 on Saturday, are 2-1 from 40-1 before the third round. Pep Guardiola's Citizens had been 9-2 favourites at the start of their cup run.

Bet365 make Liverpool 8-11 not to win a major trophy next season and 5-4 to lift one piece of silverware. The Reds are 7-1 to win two competitions, 40-1 for three trophies and 400-1 to claim the quadruple.
