Alan Shearer has given his predictions for the upcoming Premier League season, suggesting that there may not be much change at either end of the table.

Last season, Liverpool dominated the league with its fast start and consistent performance.

However, Shearer, speaking to Betfair, predicts that all three will only enjoy one year in the Premier League before returning to the Championship.



This would mark the third consecutive year that the three promoted teams fail to maintain their top-flight status, highlighting the growing gap between the Premier League and the second tier.

Arsenal is predicted to finish second for the fourth consecutive year, a prediction that is unlikely to please Mikel Arteta.

Liverpool will try to retain its Premier League title this coming season.

West Ham is also predicted to have a challenging year, despite Graham Potter embarking on his first full season in charge in London.

For clubs like Everton and Crystal Palace, it's another year of secure mid-table football

Brighton, sitting in 10th, might have anticipated more under Fabian Hurzeler.
