The 2025/26 Premier League is delivering one of the most exciting seasons in recent years. Arsenal Arsenal continue on their historic journey, Manchester City are fighting to return to the top, and Liverpool under new management continue to challenge — this is a race whose outcome we won't know until the final whistle.
Mikel Arteta's Arsenal have turned from a promising team into a fearsome one. According to the table standings as of early 2026, the "Gunners" remain among the top three clubs. Bukayo Saka, Martin Ødegaard and Declan Rice have formed an axis that's genuinely hard to stop.
After nearly 22 years without a league title, Arsenal are now not just competing — they're leading the conversation. If 2025/26 is the year the "Gunners" return to glory, it will be one of the biggest headlines in British sport in recent decades.
Pep Guardiola's Manchester City remain fearsome. Erling Haaland continues to break scoring records at an unprecedented rate. With Bernardo Silva, Rúben Dias and Kevin De Bruyne (when healthy), City are always dangerous.
The real question in 2025/26 is: can City maintain their streak? Injuries and accumulating fatigue are enemy number one. But Guardiola has always found a way to win.
Liverpool continue to maintain a high level with players like Luís Díaz and Mohamed Salah. Manchester United, who underwent a major management shake-up, are trying to return to their glory days — with mixed results.
Newcastle United, with the Saudi investments, continue to build a team that can spring surprises. Alexander Isak remains one of the most dangerous strikers in the league.
At the bottom of the table, several clubs are fighting for survival. Staying up means millions of pounds in broadcast revenue, so even clubs once considered "safe" won't rest easy until the season's end. Every point is worth gold.
