As Liverpool prepare to start a new Premier League season, where do supporters of the other 19 clubs believe they will finish?
The Reds open their campaign at newly-promoted Ipswich on Saturday lunchtime, with positivity in the air after a good summer under new head coach Arne Slot.
There is optimism for what the season could entail under the Dutchman but also accepted leniency for his first season in the English top flight, where he will juggle three other competitions.
We spoke to one fan from each of the other 19 Premier League teams to see where they believe Liverpool will finish in 2024/25.
Interestingly, 14 of the 19 fans think the Reds will end the season in the top three – with two even predicting a top-two finish for Slot’s side at the end of the 38-game campaign.
It is a nod to the existing talent in the squad as less than a week out from the campaign no new signings have been made. So, let’s see who predicted what when it comes to Liverpool’s season.
Where the other 19 clubs predict Liverpool to finish:
- Arsenal: 3rd – “I would be surprised if Liverpool challenged for the title this season, given the lack of Jurgen Klopp.”
- Aston Villa: Top three – “Arne Slot has inherited a fantastic squad from Klopp and is a brilliant coach himself, so I think Liverpool can still challenge.”
- Bournemouth: 3rd – “I think there may be some sort of adjustment period, but I still feel you’ll be strong. I’ll say third.”
- Brentford: 3rd.
- Brighton: 2nd.
- Chelsea: 3rd.
- Crystal Palace: Top four.
- Fulham: 3rd.
- Ipswich: 4th.
- Leicester: 2nd – “Second. It’s going to be a really interesting season from an outsider’s perspective. Slot simply couldn’t have bigger shoes to fill, but seems to have made a positive impact so far.”
- Man City: 4th.
- Man United: 3rd.
- Nottingham Forest: 3rd – “With Klopp gone, it feels like Slot will need time and because of that the gap to Arsenal and Man City is already wider.
- Southampton: 3rd – “I don’t see Liverpool testing Man City or Arsenal at the top of the league but I still think they’re strong, despite the inevitable teething problems that will come with a new manager.”
- Tottenham: 3rd.
- West Ham: Top four – “But Liverpool are also going through a bit of upheaval and it all depends on how quickly the players adapt to Slots style.”
- Wolves: 4th.
