The 2022–23 Premier League is the 31st season of the Premier League, and the 124th season of top-flight English football overall.
Manchester City are the two-time defending champions, having won both the 2020–21 and 2021–22 season.
Developments
Starting from the 2022–23 season, clubs will be able to make five rather than three substitutions. These substitutions can be made in three stoppages during game time, and additionally at half time,[1] in line with other top European leagues. There will also be a mid-season break for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, with the last match on the weekend of 12–13 November 2022, and the first match after the World Cup on 26 December 2022, following the World Cup final on 18 December 2022.[2] Ahead of the season, players decided to not take a knee routinely before matches, and restricted the gesture for some “significant moments”. However, captains affirmed their commitment towards fighting racism and other forms of discrimination.[3][4]
Teams
Twenty teams will compete in the league – the top seventeen teams from the previous season and the three teams promoted from the Championship. The promoted teams are Fulham, Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest, who will return after an absence of one, two and twenty-three years from the top flight respectively. The twenty-three years between Nottingham Forest's previous Premier League season and this season is the longest absence for a previous Premier League club in the Premier League era to date. They will replace Burnley (relegated after a six-year top flight spell), Watford and Norwich City (both teams relegated after just one year back in the top flight).
