Fulham have been handed the most difficult run-in for the 2024-2025 Premier League season while Manchester City have been credited with having the easiest final 10 games.
City are known for pulling it out of the bag when it matters, just take last season. Pep Guardiola’s secured nine successive wins to leapfrog Arsenal and secure a record fourth consecutive top-flight title.
Some of those results came against the likes of West Ham, Tottenham and Chelsea – fixture which could have seen the Citizens slip up. However, there won’t be as much pressure on them this season.
According to the Opta Power Rankings, Pep Guardiola’s side have the easiest final 10 games of the 2024-2025 season, with just one of their last 10 matches taking place against a team that finished in the top seven last season – a home game against Villa.
Arsenal, who were pipped to the title last season, will take some comfort in knowing their final 10 games have been deemed the fourth easiest of all 20 teams in the Premier League.

Although, Mikel Arteta’s side will travel to Liverpool and face Newcastle at home in their final three games – which could prove to be pivotal in the 2024-2025 Premier League title race.
Meanwhile, Fulham, Crystal Palace and Everton have been credited with having the most difficult final 10 games of the season – according to sports analytics company Opta.
Fulham will face last season’s top six during their final 10 fixtures – taking on Tottenham, Arsenal and Liverpool one after another before finishing the season with Manchester City at home.
It’s equally as daunting for Palace and Everton given they will face five of last season’s top seven in their final 10 fixture of the 2024-2025 Premier League campaign.
However, Bournemouth and Southampton will have the biggest challenge on their hands when it comes to the final five games of the season. They will both face City and Arsenal.
Not that there is much in it, but Bournemouth appear to have it worse. They will also face Manchester United and Aston Villa – who finished fourth last season – during their final five games.
