Louis Saha, who formerly scored for Manchester United, has predicted that Liverpool would repeat as Premier League champions in the upcoming season.

With just a victory, the Reds can claim victory in this season’s tournament. If Arsenal lose to Crystal Palace on Wednesday at the Emirates, Arne Slot’s team will have won the league for the twentieth time.
The leaders are expected to clinch the title this weekend when they visit Tottenham, but if Arsenal wins or draws, Liverpool’s celebrations will have to wait.
Before the season began, Liverpool was considered the third favorite to win the Premier League, behind only Manchester City and Arsenal, the defending champions.
But City have had a terrible season, and the Gunners are looking like they’ll finish in second place for three years in a row.

Saha informed Mega Dice that Liverpool have been the most consistent this year, which is why they have the most points. Even though they lost a fantastic manager, the team has adjusted well to the new leader.
Based on that, it’s safe to say they’re still the favorites, although Man City clearly needs to make a few summer signings.
Some, like Chelsea, had a more successful than anticipated but nevertheless challenging season. They still have a ways to go because of all the players and transactions they had to deal with.

You can’t leave out Arsenal, yet after everything that has transpired, I still consider Liverpool to be the strongest.
Since Man City will be without De Bruyne and maybe Gundogan, I would have predicted that they would have a shot. However, changes are on the horizon.
New contracts have been signed by Salah and Van Dijk, two players for Liverpool. The stability they’ve shown this season is due in large part to Van Dijk, and he’ll be back next year.
