Chelsea's ranking dropped to 12th last season due to the investment blunders of owner Paulie Gunnar and frequent changes of manager, disappointing the fans. This summer, Chelsea brought in experienced coach Pudjetino to take charge of the coaching staff, and sent away high-paid players such as Nicolau Gendi, Mason Monte, Aubameyang, Xaviers and Gohuasi, and brought in new stars such as Nicholai Koo, Nicolas Jackson and Assou Di Sassi to carry out the strategy of rejuvenation. Chelsea's recent 5 warm-up matches resulted in 3 wins and 2 draws, a remarkable performance, but the lineup changes are large and need time to integrate, and Nicholson's injury may affect the team's overall performance.

The Reds are expected to return to title contention in the new season after a good performance in the pre-season warm-up matches and a resurgence of their attacking force, with Darwin Nunes performing well.
Newcastle takes off for another challenge
Newcastle have become a new force in the Premier League since the injection of money from the Middle East. Under the leadership of solid leader Eddie Houdini, the team managed to reach the top four last season and gained the UEFA Europa League ticket.
