2021 English Premier League

The 2020-21 season of the English Premier League brings us a new edition of one of the best soccer leagues on the planet. Several teams reinforced their lineups to fight for the title. Likewise, this 2020/2021 season will show us many of the most talented footballers in the world. Let's take a look at what to bring us this Premier League's new edition.

Favorite Clubs To Win The 2020/2021 English Premier League

The competitiveness of this league has been demonstrated in recent seasons. In their last eight campaigns, five different clubs were champions. Sportsbooks coincide in placing Guardiola and Bruyne's Manchester City as the highest contender for the title. His midfield and forward are still very talented. There we find names like Agüero and Gabriel Jesus, Sterling, De Bruyne, and Mahrez. The pending issue for Guardiola's men will be to improve their defense. In this sense, City brought Nathan Aké from Bournemouth for more than 45 million Euros. This Dutch center-back will join figures like Laporte, Fernandinho, and Walker in the Citizens' back.

As for the reigning champion, Liverpool, it looks difficult to repeat or improve a season as successful as the previous one. However, those led by Jürgen Klopp have the talent to win again. They practically keep the same squad and have one of the best coaches in the world. This is essential for the machinery assembled by Klopp to continue to achieve victories. On the other hand, we have Manchester United. The Red Devils seek to regain the greatness lost after Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement. In this sense, the second part of last season was an excellent omen. Since Bruno Fernandes arriving, this team significantly increased its performance. Alongside him, figures like Pogba, Rashford, Martial, and newcomer Van de Beek form up a powerful attack.

Chelsea FC completes the main favorites group. With more than 150 million Euros, the Blues were the ones that invested the most in the transfer market. Frankie Lampard will feature new figures such as Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech, Kai Havertz, Ben Chilwell, and Thiago Silva. These hires, plus a coach who seems will have as successful as he had as a player, generate illusions at Stamford Bridge. Other aspects to follow in this Premier League new season will be the Leeds, Tottenham, and Wolverhampton performances.

Leeds, a storied club in England, comes to begin a new successful era in the English first division. For this, they have the renowned Argentine coach Marcelo Bielsa's leadership. For its part, Mourinho's Tottenham should have a much better performance in the attack by recovering Harry Kane and Heung-min Son from their lesions. The Wolves have finished in seventh place in the past two seasons and have reached the Europe League. It remains to be seen if they can make the necessary leap in quality to get into Champions League positions.

Lastly, we cannot forget Arteta's Arsenal and Rodgers' Leicester City. These clubs are far from the Liverpool or Manchester City level. However, they have the quality to cause more than one problem to the favorites. In conclusion, the 2020/2021 English Premier League edition promises to be highly contested and full of emotions for the fans.
