2015/16 Predictions: Premier League winners & the Top Four

In celebration of the Premier League returning in just three days, we've put our sports writers on the spot and asked them: who will be the Champions and what other teams will make up the Top Four?

They say variety is the spice of life and it’s clear our writers do not share that opinion. It is fact-based opinion in this office and all eight of our writers predicted Chelsea to retain the title.

It seems that Jose Mourinho’s transfer dealings last summer combined with the attacking prowess of Eden Hazard is enough evidence for our team to believe that it’ll be Chelsea’s title to lose this season.

The race for the Top Four is also seen by our writers to be a predictable affair, with all agreeing it will be Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United joining Chelsea in the Champions League spots.

Do you think they’re wrong? Let us know in the comments. And watch out for more previews coming this week.
