According to Opta analysis, Manchester City are now the frontrunners to defend their Premier League title.
This assessment comes after their impressive 4-0 victory against Brighton, just days after Arsenal’s dominant 5-0 performance over Chelsea at the Emirates.
In another significant result, Liverpool suffered a 2-0 defeat to Everton in the Merseyside Derby earlier in the week.
Based on these outcomes, Opta’s title predictor currently gives Manchester City a 71.1% chance of winning the Premier League, with Arsenal at 27% and Liverpool at 1.6%.
Looking ahead, Liverpool will face West Ham next, Arsenal will take on Tottenham, and City will play against Nottingham Forest on Sunday.
