There have been plenty of twists and turns in the Premier League title race in recent weeks with Liverpool emerging as the new favourites to claim the English crown.
With Arne Slot’s Reds pulling five points clear at the top of the ladder, here’s a closer look at the Premier League outright odds and the contenders battling for the title.
Many Liverpool fans came into the 2024/25 Premier League season with the outlook that Slot would need time to settle in at Anfield following the departure of the iconic Jurgen Klopp at the end of last season.
However, with the understated Dutchman enjoying such an impressive start on Merseyside, Liverpool supporters now have growing hope that they can land a second Premier League title in their history this season.
An impressive 2-0 win at home to Aston Villa was the perfect result before the international break and one that takes Liverpool five points clear at the top.
Now at 2.23 in the Premier League outright odds, all eyes are on whether Slot’s men can keep up the pace.
Was it really the class of Rodri all along? Many are wondering how Manchester City find themselves on a four-game losing streak in all competitions, following a 2-1 defeat at Brighton last time out.
Ballon d’Or winner Rodri has been ruled out for the rest of the season and City still seem to be coming to terms with the loss of the defensive midfielder.
A player who keeps the Cityzens ticking in possession, while also protecting the backline, the club are quickly discovering why Rodri was so instrumental to their recent success.
The international break comes at a good time for manager Pep Guardiola and his side for a reset, before some big games against Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool on the horizon.
City have not become a bad team overnight but they have ground to make up and are now 3.25 for the Premier League title.
Four Premier League games without a win after a 1-1 draw at Chelsea last time out, Arsenal have now moved out to 4.33 for the title.
Mikel Arteta and his side have had a challenging run of fixtures, facing Liverpool, Newcastle and Chelsea in their last three league games, while also juggling UEFA Champions League commitments.
Despite this tough run, if they are to claim the Premier League title in May, their form against harder opposition will need to improve, especially on the road.
Currently sat in third place on the ladder, manager Enzo Maresca has rightly been getting the plaudits for his efforts at Chelsea this season.
Another manager who would have been given time to try and get results out of this bloated squad at Stamford Bridge, Maresca has a core group of players who he seems to trust and are delivering performances.
A top-four finish is probably the more realistic goal for this Chelsea side in their current development, while they are 15.00 to cause a major upset and lift the Premier League trophy this season.
A 2-1 defeat to newly-promoted Ipswich Town in north London probably sums Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham in this moment.
Inconsistency is a huge problem for Spurs, with wins against Man City and Aston Villa outweighed by defeats to Crystal Palace and Ipswich.
With that in mind, it’s understandable why they are out at 51.00 to win the title.
