Michael Owen has recently predicted the final Premier League table for the 2023-24 season. According to his forecast, Manchester City will retain the title, while newly-promoted Luton Town will finish bottom.
Man City will be looking to become the first team to win four consecutive titles in the Premier League, but they are expected to face stiff competition from Arsenal, Manchester United, and Liverpool. Meanwhile, Chelsea, Newcastle United, Aston Villa, and Tottenham will be aiming to secure a top-four finish, while Brentford, Fulham, and other mid-table sides will look to build on their impressive displays from last season.
West Ham, Everton, Nottingham Forest, Crystal Palace, Bournemouth, and Wolves will all be aiming to pull further clear of the relegation zone after having some close calls last term. Burnley, Sheffield United, and Luton Town, who were recently promoted from the Championship, will be looking to avoid the drop.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has claimed that Man City are the only team that can realistically aim to win the title this season. He stated during Liverpool's pre-season tour that, ‘Nobody besides maybe Man City can have the real target to become champions again this year’.
When asked about Klopp's comments in his pre-match press conference, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta said he respected Man City's consistency over the years and noted they had set a high standard for teams who are looking to challenge for the title. He said, ‘If you want to challenge for that championship you know the total points that you’re going to be needing and that’s unheard of in this league for the last 100 years.’
As the 2023-24 season approaches, it will be interesting to see how the Premier League table looks at the end of the season and if Michael Owen's predictions come true.
