Chelsea failed to finish in the top ten positions during the 2022/23 season, while Man City won the title.
“I obviously believe that Liverpool is going to improve next season but I believe there is a big gap between Manchester City and everybody else,” Johnson told Betfred.
“I don’t believe they will challenge for the Premier League title next season but I do believe that Chelsea will be the surprise package if I am being honest.
“Chelsea has a fantastic squad but they were not firing at all last season, but now they have a good manager and a good squad, I believe they will have a point to prove and they will be challenging more than anybody expected.
“I don’t believe they will be good enough to take Manchester City all the way, but I believe Chelsea will be their closest rivals.”
