Premier League Predictions & News
Manchester City tipped to go trophyless next season
Manchester City are 10/11 with William Hill not to win a major trophy in the 2026/27 season following Pep Guardiola’s departure and the likely arrival of Enzo Maresca.
The new campaign is already being priced up with a series of specials around City’s first year post-Pep.
With Guardiola stepping away after a dominant spell at the Etihad, attention has turned to how City will adjust under a new head coach. William Hill have opened a “Man City Not To Win A Major Trophy” market for 2026/27, making the Sky Blues 10/11 to end the season without silverware.
Maresca, who spent time on City’s coaching staff before his spell in charge at Chelsea, is widely expected to take over in Manchester. As part of their new-season prices, William Hill are 2/1 that City beat Chelsea both home and away in the Premier League next term, adding an extra layer of interest to what will already be a high-profile fixture given his recent Stamford Bridge stint.
There are also markets around how long Maresca will last in the job. It is 9/4 that he is not Manchester City manager on the final day of the 2026/27 Premier League season. For those looking at the shorter term, it is 4/1 that he is no longer in charge by Christmas Day 2026.
William Hill spokesperson, Lee Phelps, said: “Pep Guardiola leaving Manchester City marks the end of an era, so it’s no surprise there’s uncertainty around what comes next at the Etihad. The arrival of Enzo Maresca appears imminent, but we price City at 10/11 to go trophyless next season, which underlines just how difficult life after Pep could be.
“There’s already pressure building around Maresca before he’s walked through the door, with odds of 9/4 that he doesn’t last the season and 4/1 that he’s gone by Christmas Day. That said, City fans would love nothing more than seeing their side do the double over Chelsea next season, and that’s currently priced at 2/1.”
