Premier League Top Four Betting Odds & Predictions: Clubs Set For Big Battle

Manchester City are favourites to win a fourth-straight Premier League title, but it’s not so clear which teams will make up the rest of the top four this season.
UK betting sites consider several teams to be in top four contention with as many as 10 clubs targeting Champions League qualification and the riches and prestige it brings.
Arsenal, Manchester United and Newcastle United made up the rest of the top four places behind champions City in the Premier League table last season. Will the same four teams qualify for the Champions League again?
Or can the likes of Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Brighton, Aston Villa or West Ham crash the top four party?
We have rounded up the best odds from football betting apps in the ‘Premier League Top Four Finish’ market for this season.
Manchester City Top 4 Odds
Most UK bookmakers agree Manchester City are strong title favourites pricing Pep Guardiola’s team at 1/50 to finish in the top four.
Guardiola has never failed to secure Champions League qualification during his time at Man City and that trend doesn’t look likely to change any time soon.
Erling Haaland finished last season as the Premier League’s top scorer with a record-breaking 36 goals and the Norwegian striker is destined for another impressive season having made a strong start to the campaign.
Nothing is certain in football, but Guardiola and his players can probably count on another top four finish at the very least this season.
Arsenal Top 4 Odds
Arsenal exceeded expectations last season by mounting a title challenge and pushing eventual winners City all the way.
The Gunners are priced at 1/3 by football betting sites to finish in the top four again this season with many expecting Mikel Arteta’s team to build on their success of the 2022/23 campaign.
Declan Rice has given Arsenal extra presence in the centre of the pitch, while Kai Havertz allows Arteta to rotate his squad in midfield and attack.
Gabriel Martinelli, Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard remain key figures for the North London team who have made great strides forward in recent times.
Liverpool Top 4 Odds
Liverpool missed out on a place in the top four last season, but Jurgen Klopp has rebuilt his midfield since then and the Reds look more dangerous.
Ladbrokes have priced Liverpool at 1/4 to finish in the top four this season and with five consecutive victories in the league, there is good reason to believe the Anfield side will be back in the Champions League before too long.
Dominik Szoboszlai has settled quickly on Merseyside since arriving from RB Leipzig, while Alexis Mac Allister, Wataru Endo and Ryan Gravenberch have also given Liverpool options in central midfield.
Mohamed Salah remains one of the most consistent attackers in the Premier League, while Darwin Nunez continues to improve so don’t write off Liverpool.
Newcastle United Top 4 Odds
Eddie Howe has done an exceptional job as Newcastle United manager, guiding the Magpies into the top four last season despite few predicting they would finish so high.
This season, however, could be more challenging for the St James’ Park team with several teams around seemingly stronger and the competition could be stiffer.
St James’ Park, however, remains one of the most formidable stadiums to visit in the Premier League with Newcastle’s squad improved over the summer by the addition of Sandro Tonali, Harvey Barnes and Lewis Hall.
Newcastle are priced at 7/4 by Coral to keep their place in the Premier League’s top four this season on the back of an 8-0 thumping of Sheffield United.
Brighton Top 4 Odds
With Brighton playing European football for the first time this season, it was unknown as to how the Seagulls would perform domestically this term.
However, with five wins from their opening six matches, their odds for a top four finish have shortened drastically as they look to outdo last year's sixth-placed finish.
Kaoru Mitoma has picked up where he left off last season, whilst the addition of Joao Pedro to compete with Evan Ferguson for a place upfront has worked wonders, with both netting four times already this term.
Roberto De Zerbi is doing a remarkable job on the south coast and with fixtures against Manchester United and Newcastle out the way in the first half of the campaign, stranger things have happened than Brighton making the top four come May.
As a result of their impressive start, Unibet have the Seagulls at odds of 9/4 to seal a top four spot by the end of the season.
Tottenham Hotspur Top 4 Odds
Ange Postecoglou has made an instant impact at Tottenham Hotspur with the north London side already playing a more attack-minded, entertaining style of football.
Harry Kane is no longer at Spurs, but Postecoglou is getting the best out of players like Son Heung-min, Pape Sarr, Yves Bissouma and Destiny Udogie with James Maddison also giving them more creativity in the final third.
Few expected Tottenham to be in the mix for a top four place this season, but Postecoglou has pointed in the right direction and they are making quick progress.
Betway have priced Spurs at 9/4 to qualify for the Champions League by finishing in the top four.
Man Utd Top 4 Odds
Erik ten Hag carried Manchester United back into the top four in his first season as manager, but backing up that success could prove difficult for the Dutchman.
Mason Mount, Andre Onana, Rasmus Hojlund and Sofyan Amrabat were signed over the summer transfer window, yet United still appear to be somewhat light in a number of important positions.
The number nine position is still an issue with Hojlund signed as a long-term solution, but Man Utd need the young Dane to hit the ground running despite only scoring nine goals in Serie A for Atalanta last season.
A flurry of poor results in the league ended with a 1-0 victory at Burnley, keeping United in contention with the early season high-flyers as they look to formulate a winning run on the back of an important three points.
Spreadex have priced Manchester United at 11/4 to finish in the top four once again this season.
Premier League Top 4 Odds
Chelsea were fancied by some to challenge the likes of Arsenal and Manchester City for the title before a ball had been kicked this season, however a disastrous start under Mauricio Pochettino has seen the Blues slip to as high as 6/1 with betting apps to finish in the top four this season.
Unai Emery made a profound impact as Aston Villa midway through last season and has improved the club’s squad through the addition of Nicolo Zaniolo, Moussa Diaby, Youri Tielemens and Pau Torres. They have moved from a price of 16/1 into 9/1 to make the top four after just six games.
West Ham won the Europa Conference League last season, but lost Declan Rice over the summer.
Nonetheless, the Hammers look to be in good shape and are available at a generous 28/1 to qualify for next season’s Champions League.
