Chelsea made a truly magnificent start to this season. Their resounding victory over Paris Saint-Germain in the final will likely be forgotten by the end of the year. The events that followed also made it impossible to forget. Paris Saint-Germain were clearly the favorites before the match, and many, even over 80% of betting enthusiasts, were betting on that result. However, Chelsea achieved a very low probability of winning by three goals, securing a Premier League title that will be a threat to other teams. They could now be a Premier League title contender because they've learned how to play in big matches.
The Premier League is always fiercely competitive, with several teams competing quite closely. Although Chelsea has shown good performance, I don't think it will be easy for Chelsea to win the Premier League title next season, even though they are the favorites.
Their achievement in the Club World Cup is certainly quite positive, especially for the mentality and confidence of the Chelsea players heading into next season.
Chelsea the favourite for the next premier league title?
No, I don't buy into that sentiment because I still feels that they are below Liverpool in quality and experience, I know that their recent performance in the club world cup will make a lot of people including me to start seeing them differently, but even though I know that they are very skilled and strong, especially now that they have added a real finisher to their squad in Joao Pedro, they are still short in quality and experience when compared to Liverpool.
So the team I sees as the favourite here is Liverpool, and by looking at how they have dip hands in the transfer market and made a lot of expensive signing, we can all attest that they will be much more stronger than last season, so they are the clear favourite here.
