The favorites to win the championship in the five major leagues: Manchester City is looking to win the Premier League again, Barcelona is looking forward to defending the title, and there is no suspen

As time comes to the end of August, the five major European leagues have also rekindled their wars. Currently, the Premier League, La Liga and Ligue 1 have completed the first round, and Serie A and Bundesliga will also usher in the new season next week. During the two-month offseason, teams in the five major leagues actively prepared for the game and spent a lot of money in the transfer window to strengthen the team's lineup. Liverpool in the Premier League, Real Madrid in La Liga, Naples in Serie A and other giant teams have all introduced multiple players to meet the challenges of the new season. Next, let’s take a look at which teams are the favorites to win the championship in the five major leagues in the new season.

Ligue 1: Paris Saint-Germain

The biggest favorite to win the Ligue 1 is Paris Saint-Germain, which won the European triple-champ last season. In the 2024-25 season, Paris Saint-Germain ushered in a breakthrough in the Champions League. They beat Inter Milan 5-0 in the Champions League final. The team won the Champions League for the first time in history. In the entire season's Champions League journey, they have even beaten European teams such as Liverpool and Arsenal, with great value in winning the championship. In the summer transfer window, Paris Saint-Germain has only introduced three new players with a stable lineup, and two more signings are goalkeeper positions to deal with Donnarumma's departure from the team. Even though they don’t make much of their signings, Paris Saint-Germain under Enrique has already had a well-formed tactical system. Next season, they will not only be the favorites to win the championship in the Ligue 1, but also be strong contenders for the championship in the Champions League. In the first round of the Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain also successfully got a good start. They defeated Nantes 1-0 away and started a new Ligue 1 season with victory.

Bundesliga: Bayern Munich

The situation of the Bundesliga and Ligue 1 is consistent, and both are the only one team. Although there are also strong teams from Dortmund and Leverkusen in the Bundesliga, it still cannot stop Bayern from competing for the championship. Although Leverkusen ended Bayern's 11 consecutive Bundesliga titles in the 2023-24 season, more than a year later, the pharmaceutical factory's winning lineup has long been broken up. Meritorious coach Alonso chose to coach Real Madrid, and the team's core Wilz also went to Liverpool to enter the Premier League. Although the pharmaceutical factory led by Tenghager may still have the strength to fight, the team is still far behind Bayern in terms of overall strength. Although Bayern encountered walls in the summer window of this season, he still introduced new players such as Dias and Jonatan Ta to supplement the team's lineup. In the first game of the new season, Bayern also started the new season with the German Super Cup championship. In the subsequent Bundesliga, Bayern will also strive for the championship.

Serie A: Naples and Inter Milan won the Serie A championship last season, while Inter Milan lost one after another in multi-line battles, not only giving up the league championship, but also being massacred by Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final, swallowing a shameful defeat. However, in the new season's Serie A arena, Napoli and Inter Milan are still the two teams with the most hope of winning the championship. As the defending champion, Napoli has introduced a number of strong players in the summer window. The joining of players such as Bickma and Noah Long further supplemented the roster. The signing of Manchester City's meritorious de Bruyne has once again raised the creativity of the midfielder to a higher level. At the same time, Conte's retention will be the basis for the team to achieve good results in the new season. As for Inter Milan, although Inzaghi Jr. has left office, the team's basic lineup is still there, and many other strong players such as Boni and Luis Enrique have been introduced, which will remain competitive for the league championship by then. At the same time, Juventus and AC Milan are also eyeing the championship.

La Liga: If nothing unexpected happens in the La Liga, Barcelona and Real Madrid will be the battle between Barcelona and Real Madrid. Last season, Barcelona defeated Real Madrid twice in the league, winning the La Liga championship by beating Real Madrid. At the same time, it also defeated Real Madrid in the Cup of del Rey and won the domestic double championship. In the new season, Barcelona introduced goalkeeper Garcia in the signing market, and also the talented young player Bardegi. In addition to the winning lineup last season, Barcelona is determined to win the league championship. Barcelona won a 3-0 victory in the first game of the new season. For Real Madrid, which was completely empty last season, the new season will definitely regain the league championship first. The Galaxy battleship led by Alonso will also aim at the championship. In the summer window, Real Madrid introduced four strong players, Heisen, A Fee, Mastantono and Arnold, and completed further upgrades to the lineup.

Premier League: Liverpool, Arsenal, and Manchester City are the most competitive leagues, and there are many different opinions on the winning teams in the new season. However, Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City have always been the most championship-competitive teams in recent seasons. As the defending champion Liverpool, he was incredible in the summer window. He spent more than 300 million euros in the transfer market and introduced many strong players such as Wilz and Ekitic. The team's goal is to defend the Premier League. Liverpool also got a good start in the first game of the new season. Arsenal has been second in the league for three consecutive seasons. This season, the Gunners have introduced many players such as Subimedi, Zhekelais, Maduaike, etc., and have also spent more than 200 million euros. In the first game of the new season, Arsenal also successfully won the game. Manchester City won four goals in the first league game and temporarily ranked first in the standings. As the former Premier League overlord, although Manchester City is in a state ups and downs, the team still has very strong strength. After introducing Reindes, Sherky and others, the team's strength has also been improved to a certain extent. Resuming the Premier League championship will also be the team's goal.
