It is said to be one of the best editions of this game, which is why the hype surrounding it is massive. According to all the people who had an opportunity to have a little sneak peek, this is going to be the best chapter in the entire FM franchise.
We wanted to know more about the Premier League teams and the Premiership in general in this edition.
They are saying that there isn't big of a difference to the reality when looking at the top teams in the Premier League. Manchester City and Liverpool are genuinely the best teams in the game. The reigning English and European champions stand above others. But what is the difference is that behind them are Manchester United and Arsenal and then Tottenham and Chelsea.
When comparing it to the current situation on the standings, it isn't quite the same. United is struggling badly, and it appears that his capabilities, in reality, are much lower than in the game. Right now, the odds for them to win the title are 500/1, and to be among the top four, as predicted in the FM 2020, is at 9/2. Arsenal is third in the standings, and the Gunners' team is solid. Emery's side has solid chances of being among the top four places, with odds at 4/6 for that. Arsenal is also the fourth favorite to take the title at 125/1.

Final placement media prediction and odds for EPL teams in Football Manager 2020 |
Chelsea will be one of the most popular clubs in this FM edition, according to various sources and gaming experts. Roman Abramovich's team is under a transfer ban, and they have to rely upon their youth academy. For all the die-hard Football Manager fans, that is a challenge they simply have to accept. Also, their potential is unknown, and there might be some breakthroughs during the season, which could change the game completely.
Still, if you would have run the autopilot and simulate one season, on the majority of occasions, the winner would eventually be either Liverpool or Man City. That is pretty much like reality. The Reds are the No.1 favorite according to the bookies who offer 4/6 for them to take the title after almost three decades. Guardiola and his machinery are 16/11 to make a three-peat. They really are the best teams in both the game and the real world. After all, the top six favorites to win the Player of the Year award are from these two clubs. Kevin De Bruyne leads that list with 6/1, Raheem Sterling and Mo Salah are behind with 7/1, while Mane and Sergio Aguero sit at 14/1, ahead of the reigning POY Virgil Van Dijk with 16/1.
Everything will be much more transparent after November 19 and the release of the game. Until then, we just have to sit back, relax, and wait.
