Premier League returns stronger than ever

The most interesting football championship analyzed by arbitrage betting partners - Premier League, is back. The pause, which this time was extremely short due to the past World Cup, is over, and everyone`s expectations are that this season will be much more disputed than the previous one when Manchester City to Josep Guardiola won the title with extreme ease. Unlike another time, the race this year begins when the England transfer window closes and the heads of the players will not be hunted with tempting offers from other clubs, as has happened many times in the first weeks of previous seasons. This time the problem comes from the fact that some of the managers will not be able to use all of their players in the first two rounds because many players from the leading teams returned only last week after the longer vacation they received after the 2018 World Cup.

The big que stion is whether the Manchester City champion, who is back on the bookmakers, will be able to defend his title - something that happened for the last time in the Premier League in 2009. `Citizens` were reinforced with just one new addition, which is a record for the club - Riyad Mauer, but the class and depth of Guardiola`s lineup is known to everyone.

Who will be the big champions for the champions this season? The top six teams, which have traditionally been listed as main contenders, start from different positions. According to many, the Liverpool team is in the best position to boast the most serious selection this summer. Jurgen Klopp reinforced his lineup in the areas he needed, and this time the club managed to keep its big stars. This, coupled with the strong performance of Merseyside in the second half of the season, emanating from reaching the Champions League final, turns the Reds into one of the contenders who have the biggest arguments. Of cou rse, Manchester United, who finished second in the last campaign, will also be pursuing the title, despite the tension that is felt in the Red Devils camp before the start of the season. The latter stems from Jose Mourinho`s dissatisfaction with the club`s selection. It has even come to the fact that in the last two weeks the bookies have indicated the Portuguese as the favorite to be the first fired manager during the season. Whether all this will affect the team`s performance or, on the contrary, will mobilize even more players, we have to understand. Tottenham remains one of the biggest contenders, as has always been the last three seasons. The problem faced by Mauriceio Pocetino stems from the fact that the Argentine failed to reinforce his team with no new additions, which is the first time in the history of the Premier League. Everyone in the club, however, is enthusiastic about moving the new stadium, which can give that push to the team needed for the dreamed f irst place. The rest of the top six players - Arsenal and Chelsea - enter this season, going through a period of profound changes. `Gunners` for the first time in 22 years will be without Arsene Wenger. Head of the team is Unai Emery, for whom it will be a debut season in Premier League?
