With the new league season only a matter of hours away, over a third of Goal.com's readers believe Manchester United will regain the title from rivals Manchester City.
Last season we enjoyed the most dramatic climax to a campaign in Premier League history when Sergio Aguero's injury-time winner ended City's 44-year wait for a league title and sparked memorable scenes at the Etihad Stadium.
United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has added Robin van Persie and Shinji Kagawa to his squad as his side attempt to prevail over their local rivals and 37.32% of you believe they will capture their 20th league title this season.
In second place with 19.95% of the overall vote is, rather surprisingly, Arsenal. The Gunners have lost their captain from last season, but readers believe Lukas Podolski, Santi Cazorla and Oliver Giroud can help Wenger's men challenge for the ultimate prize.
