By Michelle Ndaga

The highly anticipated 2025/26 Premier League season kicks off this weekend, with defending champions Liverpool set to face AFC Bournemouth in the opening match on Friday night.

Excitement is building across the football world, with fans counting down the hours to the first whistle. Social media has been abuzz with predictions, banter, and friendly rivalries, particularly after some Arsenal supporters poked fun at the league’s promotional materials in a light-hearted dig at their competitors.

Liverpool, fresh from last season’s triumph, will be looking to cement their dominance and begin their push for a potential dynasty. However, the road ahead will be challenging, with fierce competition expected from a resurgent Arsenal and perennial title contenders Manchester City.

As the new campaign gets underway, fans can expect intense battles, dramatic moments, and the kind of footballing spectacle the Premier League is famous for.
