The 2025–26 Premier League season came to a close on Sunday, with Arsenal lifting the trophy for the first time in 22 years.
At the other end of the table, West Ham were relegated despite a 3–0 win over Leeds United, while Tottenham Hotspur narrowly avoided the drop, securing their safety with a 1–0 victory over Everton.
And with the season just gone proving to be another exciting campaign, attention is already turning to who will be crowned champions in 2026–27.
Sky Bet have now opened a new market, with the early odds suggesting an Arsenal title defence.

At the time of writing, Arsenal are 6/4 favourites to go back-to-back, while Manchester City are close behind at 5/2 despite heading into next season without Pep Guardiola in charge.
Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea round out the top five in the betting, priced at 6/1, 13/2 and 11/1 respectively.
Liverpool endured a disappointing campaign given their lofty pre-season expectations, having started the year as strong favourites after winning the title the season prior.
Despite major summer investment in Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike and Alexander Isak – at a combined cost of more than £320 million – a fifth-place finish, 25 points adrift of champions Arsenal, has left Arne Slot under significant pressure heading into the new season.
Chelsea also endured a disappointing league campaign, finishing tenth and missing out on European football after a 2–1 defeat to Sunderland on Sunday.
In contrast, Manchester United enjoyed a strong finish to the season, particularly under Michael Carrick, recording 12 wins, three draws and just two defeats since his arrival.
Unsurprisingly, his impact has been rewarded with a new two-year contract, reportedly worth in the region of £5–6 million per year.
For those anticipating an outsider to be crowned champions, a full list of the Premier League title odds for next season can be found below.
