The 2022/23 Premier League season is just around the corner and anticipation is starting to build. The 20 teams that will contest the latest edition of England’s top-flight are already knee-deep into their summer transfer business and are now starting to get their pre-season campaigns underway.
Marry that to the fact that every one of the coaches is locked in for the August kick-off date – barring any dramatic resignations – and supporters can finally start to wonder how the season will actually play out.
There is, after all, a special type of excitement that comes with the advent of a fresh term with nobody quite knowing for certain who will win the title, qualify for the Champions League and drop down to the Championship.
Sure, you’re probably safe in assuming that Fulham won’t win the league and Liverpool will be safe from relegation, but picking out the exact positions that clubs will finish up in is actually nigh on impossible.
