Ex-England international Jamie Redknapp has picked the two teams that are favourites to win the Premier League title this season.
Liverpool beat Bournemouth 4-2 at Anfield on Friday, as their title defence began with three points.
Manchester City, who finished in third position last term, crushed Wolves 4-0 at the Molineux.
Arsenal will be looking to go one step better than the last three years when they get their season underway at Manchester United on Sunday.
Chelsea, who many regard as dark horses, will also host Crystal Palace.
But Redknapp has predicted the title race will be a big battle between Liverpool and Arsenal.
He told Sky Sports: “It’s going to be a titanic battle I think, between those two [Liverpool and Arsenal].
“Man City have Rodri coming back, that’s great for them.
“But I still think they’re going to be short, they’re going to miss Kevin De Bruyne.”
