Summary
Jamie Carragher and Paul Scholes return alongside our Premier League fans to kick off the 2025/26 season preview, brought to you by Sky Bet.
If your club isn’t featured, don’t worry, part two of our season preview drops later this week.
We open with a heartfelt tribute to Diogo Jota and André Silva, led by Liverpool fan Gareth and Jamie Carragher.
Then we look at Liverpool’s £300m summer signings, Arsenal’s big-money striker Viktor Gyokeres, and whether Chelsea can go all the way under Maresca, all with the help of journalist Martin Ziegler, who joins us in the studio.
We then look at Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest and the Europa League controversy around the ongoing appeal.
Are West Ham fan “the worst run in the Premier League,” and Aston Villa and Burnley supporters reveal their hopes for the season ahead.
As always, drop a comment and let us know your season predictions.
