Arsenal Predictions

Premier League 2026/27 · AI match prediction, form, team news and predicted lineup

Mikel Arteta enters the new season as champions for the first time, having ended a 22-year wait for the title in 2025/26. The model doesn't see a title hangover: Arsenal sit second on 34.2% title probability and 90.3% top-four odds, a genuine two-horse race with City rather than a step back. Longevity is on Arteta's side too — he's now the longest-serving manager in the division.
