Graeme Souness has predicted his Premier League top four teams for the new season
The former Reds is hoping Jurgen Klopp's side will undergo their title defence successfully and feel the Reds' campaign for this season will be easier as the former.
Liverpool strolled to the title last season, finishing 18 points clear of Manchester City and picking up 99 points in the process.
Souness feels Chelsea and Manchester United have improved for the new season, but expressed doubt over the improvement from Arsenal to launch a bid on the title.
"As it stands, Liverpool are the favourites for the title, but I don’t see them running away with it again,’ Souness wrote in the Sunday Times.
"I expect a bigger challenge, though, from United and Chelsea this time.
"United will be better with Donny van de Beek, but the goalkeeping situation may be an issue.
"Chelsea have signed well, but let's see how quickly Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech and Kai Havertz settle in.
"Beyond that, I don’t see a title challenger. People are making noises about Arsenal, but I don’t see them being strong enough.
"If you're asking me now, that's my top four for next May: Liverpool, City, United and Chelsea."
