Liverpool rises as the latest favorite to win the Premier League after introducing their new head coach.
On 5 June 2026, William Hill, the well-known licensed bookmaker in England, released the latest odds for the new Premier League season champion following Liverpool's official appointment of Andoni Iraola as their new manager, replacing Arne Slot.
Last season, Liverpool finished 5th, barely securing a spot in the UEFA Champions League after a tense final match, narrowly defeating Bournemouth—coached by Andoni Iraola—who finished 6th, just 3 points behind.
1. Arsenal – 85 points
2. Manchester City – 78 points
3. Manchester United – 71 points
4. Aston Villa – 65 points
5. Liverpool – 60 points
6. Bournemouth – 57 points
It turns out Liverpool is now the third favorite to win the Premier League after appointing 43-year-old Spanish coach Andoni Iraola, who is seen as having a fierce coaching style similar to that of former fan-favorite manager Jürgen Klopp.
The top favorite remains the reigning champion Arsenal, who finished 7 points ahead of second-place Manchester City last season. Meanwhile, the "Sky Blues" remain second favorite despite Pep Guardiola stepping down as manager and preparing to hand over to Enzo Maresca.
Manchester United is only the fourth favorite, even though Michael Carrick led the team to 12 wins out of 17 matches, collecting 39 points—the highest in the Premier League—since becoming interim manager in January and securing a permanent two-year contract.
Favorite 1: Arsenal – Odds 6/4 (bet 4 to win 6, excluding stake)

Favorite 3: Liverpool – Odds 5/1
Favorite 4: Manchester United – Odds 13/2
