Historically, a total tally in excess of 100 has been needed to win, with the only recent exception being during the 2021/22 campaign when Liverpool secured top spot with 99 points, and Sunderland topped this season's table with 106.
Nineteen of the 20 teams in the Premier League were awarded a handicap allowance, with Liverpool - last season's league champions - the only side not to have been afforded a head start for 2025/26.
