Random Premier League Picker

A random Premier League club, decided by a penalty

The Premier League Picker draws one of the division's 20 clubs at random — but instead of a wheel, you take a penalty. Every club is a goal. The taker places the ball, runs up and strikes; a couple are kept out and rebound away, and then one finds the net. Whichever goal it goes in is your club.

How it works

Choose the clubs

All 20 have a goal by default. Tap clubs off to cut it down to the ones you would actually accept.

Set the penalties

One goes straight in; five means four saves first. It changes the drama, never the odds.

Step up

The taker runs up and strikes. A save rebounds away and the ball is placed again for the next one.

One finds the net

That goal lights up and grows forward with the full club name — no popup unless you ask for one.

The one thing that makes this list different

Every other team picker on this site is stable. The NBA has had the same 30 franchises since 2004, the NFL the same 32 since 2002. Nobody gets relegated from American sport.

The Premier League is not like that. Three clubs go down to the Championship every May and three come up — a 15 per cent turnover, every single year. A club you drew last season may not be in the division this one.

Which season is this list? It matches the 2025-26 division. If you are reading this in a later season, three of the names below will have changed — check against the current table, and use the "add your own club" box for anyone newly promoted.

The 20 clubs

Each goal carries the club name on its colour, with the city and founding year on the result. Between them these clubs cover most of England — six from London alone, two from Manchester, two from Liverpool.

Club	City or area	Founded
Arsenal	North London	1886
Aston Villa	Birmingham	1874
Bournemouth	Bournemouth	1899
Brentford	West London	1889
Brighton	Brighton & Hove	1901
Burnley	Burnley, Lancashire	1882
Chelsea	West London	1905
Crystal Palace	South London	1905
Everton	Liverpool	1878
Fulham	West London	1879
Leeds	Leeds	1919
Liverpool	Liverpool	1892
Man City	Manchester	1880
Man United	Manchester	1878
Newcastle	Newcastle upon Tyne	1892
Nott'm Forest	Nottingham	1865
Sunderland	Sunderland	1879
Spurs	North London	1882
West Ham	East London	1895
Wolves	Wolverhampton	1877

Why a penalty, not a wheel

A wheel cannot miss. A pointer slides to a stop and the result was never in doubt — there is no instant where it could have gone another way. A penalty can be saved, which is the whole difference: every strike is a real question, and the answer only lands when the ball crosses the line.

The saves are properly random too. One can hit any goal, the same goal twice, and even be kept out of the goal the winning penalty later finds — because a sequence that never does those things is a script rather than a random one.

Ways to use it

Picking a club to support

New to English football, or want a second club for the season? Let the penalty decide and commit to it for 38 games.

FIFA and Football Manager

Draw a club for a career save. Narrowing to the sides outside the top six makes for a much harder run.

Fantasy forfeits

Assign everyone a random club for the weekend, or settle who has to wear which shirt.

Sweepstakes

Hand out clubs for a title or top-four sweep. The goals reshuffle every run, so nobody can claim a rigged draw.

About the artwork

There are no club badges, crests or wordmarks anywhere on this page. Those are protected marks, and everything on this site is original. Each club appears as its name on its own colour — a colour is a fact, not a protected mark, and nothing here imitates a real badge.

Shoot for a basketball team on the NBA Team Picker — the same engine, with hoops instead of goals.
Draw a gridiron team on the NFL Team Picker or a diamond one on the MLB Team Picker.

Premier League Picker FAQ

The winning club is drawn with your browser's cryptographic random generator before the first ball is struck, using rejection sampling so there is no remainder bias. The clubs are also shuffled into new positions every run, so no spot on the pitch is ever favoured. The saves are separately random too — they can hit any goal, repeat, and even be kept out of the goal the ball later finds.

Yes, all 20 clubs in the division, each with its own goal. Because three clubs are relegated and three promoted every season, the list reflects a particular campaign rather than a fixed set — see the note above on which season this one matches.

Because English football has promotion and relegation. The bottom three go down to the Championship and three come up, so 15 per cent of the division turns over every year. That is unlike the NBA, NFL or MLB, where the same franchises are in the league every season and a team picker never goes out of date.

Because club badges and wordmarks are protected marks and this site uses original artwork only. Each club appears as its name on its own colour — a colour is a fact rather than a protected mark, and nothing here reproduces or imitates a real badge.

Because a wheel cannot miss. A pointer slides to a stop and the outcome was never in doubt at any point. A penalty can be saved, so every attempt is a real question and the answer only arrives when the ball actually crosses the line. It is also the sport itself rather than an abstract spinner. The random pick underneath is identical.

Yes. Type any name into the "Add your own club" box and it gets its own goal with exactly the same odds as everything else — useful for a Championship side, a European club, or a Sunday league team.

Yes. The winner is chosen by a cryptographically secure generator with rejection sampling, which removes even the tiny bias a plain remainder would leave. Every club in the current selection has exactly equal odds on every run, and because the goals are reshuffled each time, no position is luckier than another. The number of penalties you choose changes only how long the run takes — never who wins.
