Sky Sports veteran Jeff Stelling believes Arsenal are the favorites to win the Premier League title again this season.
The football presenter said Mikel Arteta’s side remain the team to beat after strengthening their squad during the summer transfer window.
Arsenal Start Season as Favorites
Arsenal enter the new campaign with confidence after winning the Premier League title last season.
The Gunners finished ahead of Manchester City and Manchester United to lift the trophy. They also reached the UEFA Champions League final before losing to Paris Saint-Germain.
Arteta has continued to strengthen his squad as Arsenal prepare to compete for both domestic and European honors.
Stelling Sees Arsenal Staying on Top
Speaking to talkSPORT, Stelling said Arsenal’s main rivals have not improved enough to challenge for the title.
“For me, the challengers are not getting stronger,” he said.
“So, at the moment, Arsenal are the clear, clear favorites in terms of the Premier League.”
However, Stelling believes Arsenal’s biggest test will come in Europe as they look to compete for Champions League success alongside their domestic campaign.
The North London club will now aim to defend their league crown and challenge for more silverware in the 2026/27 season.
