3 Teams Most Likely to Unseat Manchester City as EPL Champions

Manchester City has been the dominant force in the English Premier League for the last decade, winning five of the last 10 titles. 

Heading into this season, City is the heavy favorite to repeat as champions, with -130 odds to win the EPL. Although the odds say this season is a wrap, the matches still need to be played. With that in mind, here are the top 3 teams most likely to upset Manchester City and win the Premier League. 

All odds listed are via WynnBET.

Chelsea (+500)

Chelsea has been a consistent force in the EPL, but has only finished top three in the standings once since winning the Premier League in 2017. However, Chelsea is ready to change that and get back to the top of the table. Chelsea is coming off a Champions League victory and landed Romelu Lukaku. 

With the confidence from the Champions League victory and a bolstered attack, Chelsea should be one of City’s toughest competitors this year. 

Liverpool (+500)

Liverpool is the reason why Manchester City isn’t going for its fifth straight Premier League title. Two years ago, Liverpool rose to the top and won its first ever EPL title. Liverpool finished third last season and finished their season on a five-game winning streak. That momentum carried them into the Champions League and should be present once the season starts. 

If Liverpool can start off strong and not require an extended winning streak just to get them back into contention, it can make some noise. 

Manchester United (+800)

Lastly, we have City’s crosstown rival, Manchester United. Their stadiums are less than 10 minutes away and last year their standings were just as close. United finished second in the standings. They showed potential to win the league, but they were never able to get over the hump. United had the same amount of losses as City, but wasn’t able to turn the close draws into victories. 

Although United has some questions with Cavani up front, they will still be able to have a potent offense. The only way to match City in points is to match them in goals. Last season, United had the second most goals in the league.

United has the furthest odds of the top four, but they are still viable contenders to play spoiler this year.
