A new supercomputer simulation has produced a surprising prediction of the Premier League standings, favoring Liverpool to finish in the top four despite their inconsistent form this season.
Arne Slott’s side have struggled to repeat last season’s relentless dominance, but data-based predictions predict a second-half bounce back will ensure Champions League football at Anfield.
Arsenal are champions but Liverpool will finish in the top four
According to The Sun, citing supercomputer simulations, Arsenal will end up winning the league, and it will be fairly easy, with a nine-point lead over second-placed Manchester City.
Despite their poor form, Liverpool have fallen to third place. They got back to winning ways in the Premier League by defeating West Ham 2-0 away on Sunday.
Fans will be hoping that they can get a win this time and put pressure on the top.
Chelsea, who picked up a vital point from league leaders Arsenal at the weekend, are expected to finish fourth, three points behind the Reds, while Ruben Amorim’s Manchester Untied are expected to finish fifth.
tottenham and bottom half
Spurs are expected to finish bottom of the table for the second consecutive season, with a supercomputer predicting Thomas Frank’s side will finish 11th.
Tottenham suffered another defeat this weekend and currently sit 12th in the Premier League. The north London club have struggled to make progress under new manager Thomas Frank, with problems both on and off the pitch.
relegation battle
Three teams are favored to take part in the Championship: Leeds United, Burnley and Wolves.
Wolves have had a dismal run and are yet to record a win in the Premier League, so the calls for relegation are not surprising.
Perhaps the most surprising prediction was that Sunderland would drop to 16th, but their form was anything but.
With another win at the weekend, they now sit in 6th place with 22 points, just two points behind third-placed Chelsea.
The Black Cats have been a real surprise package this season and there’s no reason they can’t finish in the top half of the table.
