Stuart Pearce predicts who will win the Premier League

Former England under-21 boss Stuart Pearce has revealed his thoughts on who will win the Premier League this season.

Pearce says he thinks that Liverpool will win the league this season after finishing fourth last term.

He added that they will be the only team that will challenge Manchester City for the title.

“I personally think they’ll win the league this year,” he said, Sky Sports reports. “I think it’s a two-horse race between them and City and they might just come out on top."

With these comments, he has effectively ruled out the possibility of Manchester United, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, and Arsenal winning the title.

Liverpool have started their Premier League season on a high, defeating West Ham United and Crystal Palace in their opening two games.

During the transfer window, Liverpool made signings to improve their chances of winning a trophy this season, signing AS Roma goalkeeper Alisson Becker for a world record fee of £67m.

Liverpool will face Brighton and Hove Albion this weekend with the aim of winning their third Premier League game this season.
