/r/soccer predicts… The 2025/26 Predictions Survey - and “Mark My Words” Thread

It’s been a busy few months, what with the Club World Cup, the Women’s Euros, WAFCON, the Women’s Copa America, and the Transfer Window Tournament (the most prestigious competition of them all). You could be forgiven for thinking football didn’t really stop this summer.

That’s because football never stops. Ever.

And neither do the steaming hot takes - but with the majority of European domestic leagues due to get underway soon, it is time for our annual tradition of predicting what lies in wait for the season ahead.

This means:

  1. The Mark My Words Thread - which is this. Use the comments section below to make your boldest, most outrageous, and utterly vanilla takes for the year of football to come.
  2. The Predictions Survey - this is the fourth year of the quasi-scientific attempt to quantify the famous /r/soccer consensus (and provide counter-evidence for when [insert your club here/probably Arsenal] fans tried claiming they [would not do well/badly]. All you have to do is (anonymously) fill out this Google Form (and remember, you do not have to fill it all out, and it is also not a comprehensive overview of every league and permutation ever, as I do actually have a real job so don’t have to crunch all that data).
