The Premier League is stacked with fantastic players, and every club in the league wants to sign the top players in the world. All the teams in the top 6 have managed to do that more often than not, and that has helped in making the league the most popular one in the world.

With so many top players in the league, FIFA players tend to make their teams around the Premier League clubs. This helps them get good chemistry and also makes it easier for them to get the best players without thinking twice.

The FIFA 20 player ratings are due in a couple of months, and thus, we are predicting the top 5:

#5 – Virgil van Dijk: 90

Manchester City v Liverpool - UEFA Champions League Quarter Final Second Leg

What a season he is having! The Dutchman has not been dribbled past even once this season, and there is a good reason why. He has been rock solid at the back and is making sure that Alisson does not have a lot to do in goal.

The centre-back was rated at 85 in FIFA 19 when the game was released, but his stunning performances saw him get an upgrade in the winter. EA Sports pushed him to 88 after the FIFA 19 Winter Upgrades, and he has been consistently showing that he deserves more.

Come FIFA 20, and Van Dijk is due another upgrade. The Dutchman will be breaking into the top 5 Premier League players this season with a rating of 90. While a lot of Liverpool fans would argue that he deserves a lot more, EA Sports might not opt to give him a more significant upgrade than that.

His defending stats will shoot up from 87 to 90, while his physical stats might also be pushed by +3 – from 86 to 89.

Chelsea v Arsenal - Premier League

#4 – N'Golo Kante: 90

Is there anything Kante can't do? There were a lot of pundits and fans questioning Maurizio Sarri for playing the Frenchman out of position this season, but the 2-time Premier League champion has answered all the questions.

He was rated at 89 in FIFA 19 and this season's performance should see his rating go up to 90. His shooting stats have to get the biggest upgrade – from 66 to 78 at least as he has been scoring this season.

#3 – Sergio Aguero: 90

Another season, another consistent display by Sergio Aguero! The Argentine has been scoring at will and has helped Manchester City yet again in the title race.

Rated at 89 in FIFA 19, Aguero is set to get an upgrade to 90 in FIFA 20. His shooting should go up from 89 to 92 while his pace should also be increased from 84 to 87.

Stoke City v Chelsea - Premier League

#2 – Harry Kane: 91

Harry Kane has not had a great season as injuries have derailed it multiple times. However, when he was on the pitch, he did help Tottenham a lot, and that is why they are still in the running for a top 4 place and are also in the Champions League semi-finals.

Rated at 90 in FIFA 19, Kane might be pushed to 91 in FIFA 20.

#1 – Eden Hazard: 92

Will Eden Hazard be at Chelsea next season? Only he knows. There is a good chance that he will be off to Real Madrid in the summer but as he was in the Premier League this season, we have decided to add him to the list.

Rated at 91 in FIFA 19, Hazard has been exceptional this season. He deserves an upgrade and a push to 92 is the bare minimum EA Sports can do.
