premier league top 4 odds and prediction

We witnessed an exciting battle for the top 4 in the 2024/2025 Premier League season, one that was only resolved in the last round of the season, highlighting once again why this is one of the most popular outright betting markets.

With that in mind, we are taking a closer look at the Premier League top 4 odds for next season, to see who the bookmakers see finishing at the top at this moment, with the summer transfer window still very much active.

Selections to watch

The top three teams from this season, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Man City, have the lowest odds of once again finishing in the top four in the Premier League. In fact, the odds are so low that they offer little value, which is understandable since these teams are clearly above the rest of the league, although that doesn't always translate into results.

After all, we've seen Man City struggle at one point last season and the Citizens had to dig deep to secure their place in the top four at the end.

Still, it's highly likely that we will once again see these teams at the top and with the odds so low, we will focus on other teams that offer better value for money when it comes to the race for a spot in the Champions League.

Newcastle United

The Magpies were one of the main favourites to finish in the top four last season as well and they've entered the last two rounds in the best position of all teams in the race for fourth place in the league.

However, they have ended the season with a couple of losses, against Arsenal and Everton, which saw them drop to fifth place and if Aston Villa haven't also fumbled the ball in the last round and lost to Man Utd, they would've finished sixth.

Luckily for them, Villa failed to get that crucial point to overtake them in the standings and thanks to the Premier League getting an extra spot in the Champions League, Newcastle will play in Europe's top competition next season.

Newcastle are undoubtedly a good team that has a solid chance to finish in the top four, especially if they manage to keep their top scorer from last season Alexander Isak. This will be a tough task with many teams interested in his services, according to the latest transfer odds.

Chelsea

With five wins in the final six rounds of the Premier League, Chelsea have finished the season on a tear and managed to clinch fourth place and a spot in the Champions League for next season.

As one of the youngest teams in the league that struggled to find the best form for a while, it was an impressive season for them at the end, crowned with winning the Conference League with a victory over Real Betis in the final.

Furthermore, the Blues have already made significant moves this summer, bringing in six new players, including paying £30 million for Liam Delap to hopefully provide goals, which is something that Chelsea desperately needed since their forwards didn't have a great last season.

Chelsea are currently at the Club World Cup and while the extra games likely won't make the players too happy, the Blues will enter the new season after having a competitive summer, which could help them have a strong start of the season.

Aston Villa

The Villans had a great chance to finish in the top five this season, which would've put them back in the Champions League, but they failed to get even a point against Man Utd in the last round. So, despite running hot in the past couple of months, they will have to be satisfied with playing in the Europa League next season.

Meanwhile, they are one of the teams that offer solid value when it comes to finishing in the top four next season, with odds 5/2 odds. Aston Villa certainly have the quality to get there, but it is a fierce competition.

Manchester United

The Red Devils have already addressed their biggest concern by bringing Matheus Cunha to Old Trafford, which cost them a lot but it has the potential to be a defining move of their season.

Man Utd were in critical need of a reliable forward and the 26-year-old Brazilian could be just what the doctor ordered. Of course, Man Utd still need plenty of work to be competitive for the top four after finishing last season closer to the relegation zone than ever in recent memory, but at least they're off to a good start this transfer window.

Nottingham Forest

After spending most of the season in second and third place in the standings, Nottingham Forest have suffered a dip in form in the final stretch of the season, which cost them a spot in the Champions League. Forest will get to play in Europe though, but only in the Conference League.

While it's hard to see this team fighting for a top 4 finish again next season, especially since they now also have Europe to worry about, it's hard to rule them out completely. After all, if they can bring some additional quality this summer, they could once again be the team to surprise us all.

Who will finish in the Premier League top 4? Here’s our prediction

We’re not raising any eyebrows here, but Liverpool, Arsenal, and Man City should all be in the top four come the end of the season. However, the real question is who will be the fourth team to join them at the top?

Our money is on Chelsea. They have proven they have a lot of quality this season, they are young and bound to be even better next season, and with a few signings to ensure their depth since they will be playing in the Champions League as well, we can see the Blues finishing in top four in the Premier League.
