Arsenal and Chelsea Make a Title Challenge
Arsenal were close to winning the Premier League last season and Friedel expects them to mount another title challenge this year. He also believes Chelsea, who finished 12th last term, will be up there after the arrival of new manager Mauricio Pochettino and the record-breaking deal for Moises Caicedo.
Liverpool have also been tipped to improve on their fifth-place finish last season and Friedel expects them to make a run for the title. He also believes Newcastle and Aston Villa could cause some upsets this season.

I think they’re going to get some things together and make a run for it.” He also predicted that Man City would finish second, followed by Chelsea in third and Arsenal in fourth.
