Paddy Power have paid out on Liverpool to become the 2022/23 Premier League champions - before a ball has even been kicked during the upcoming campaign.
Jurgen Klopp's side missed out on the top-flight title last season by a single point, with Manchester City completing a dramatic comeback against Aston Villa at the Etihad Stadium to secure top spot and leave the Reds disappointed on the final day for the second time in four years.
Liverpool put down an early marker on Saturday afternoon by defeating Pep Guardiola's men 3-1 to claim the Community Shield and were worthy winners at the home of Leicester City. Whether or not this result will have a lasting impact on the Sky Blues remains to be seen, though Paddy Power are convinced they have seen enough to decide which team will be coming out on top come May.
