Supercomputer predicts full 2026-27 Premier League table

However, Roberto De Zerbi’s team have been comprehensively beaten by Brentford and Newcastle and have yet to provide much evidence of progress. Spurs are consequently predicted to finish 14th in the Supercomputer’s projected standings.

Hull City are one place above Tottenham and have made a remarkable start to life in the top flight despite widespread predictions that they would finish bottom.

The Tigers followed their surprise victory over Man Utd by taking another three points against Coventry. Bournemouth occupy 12th following a challenging beginning to their first season since the departure of Andoni Iraola.

Leeds United sit one position ahead of the Cherries after earning a draw against Brentford at home, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin rescuing a point through a late equaliser. Daniel Farke should be pleased with the way his team have begun the campaign.

11. Leeds United 49
12. Bournemouth 49
13. Hull City 47
14. Tottenham 46

Top Half

A large number of pundits and supporters expect Manchester United to secure another top-four finish this season, but the Supercomputer has instead placed the Red Devils fifth, despite Michael Carrick’s men recovering from their surprise defeat to Hull City with a convincing victory over Ipswich Town.

PFA Player of the Year Bruno Fernandes will be expected to lead the charge as the English giants attempt to break back into the top four.

Newcastle United strengthened their credentials with an impressive away display against Spurs after previously holding Liverpool to a spirited draw, securing maximum points in north London.

Matthias Jaissle’s team are predicted to finish sixth, which would represent an excellent achievement after an unsettled summer at St James’ Park.

Brighton’s strong start took a hit after their emphatic 4-0 victory over Aston Villa was followed by a dramatic 4-3 defeat at Stamford Bridge.

The Seagulls are now forecast to end the 2026-27 campaign in seventh, while Villa have slipped to 10th following their home defeat against Arsenal.

Brentford and Everton complete the predicted top ten, with both teams taking four points from their opening two matches. Both clubs will be hoping to challenge the established top-six sides throughout the campaign.

5. Manchester United 57
6. Newcastle United 56
7. Brighton 53
8. Brentford 52
9. Everton 51
10. Aston Villa 51

Top Four

Manchester City have maintained their perfect Premier League record despite the departure of Pep Guardiola.

The Citizens have looked promising under Enzo Maresca, with Erling Haaland and Rayan Cherki both in excellent form, although the major question remains whether they can mount a genuine title challenge against Arsenal.

The record-matching £125 million acquisition of Argentina international Enzo Fernandez from Chelsea should provide another major boost to their ambitions.

Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal side comfortably dealt with Coventry City before following it up with an impressive victory at Villa Park, and the Supercomputer expects them to successfully defend their Premier League crown.

The Gunners possess considerable depth across the squad and are regarded as overwhelming favourites to lift the title once again in 2027.

Chelsea are meanwhile predicted to finish third after their thrilling 4-3 victory over Brighton. The Blues could have one of the most dangerous attacking trios in the division, with Joao Pedro, Cole Palmer and Morgan Rogers capable of developing into a formidable front three.

Liverpool are projected to occupy fourth place after being held to frustrating draws in both of their opening fixtures. Andoni Iraola has plenty to improve at Anfield this season, despite having an impressive collection of players available to him.

1. Arsenal 76
2. Manchester City 71
3. Chelsea 60
4. Liverpool 59
