Opta's super-computer has made predictions for the final standings of the Premier League. As the season heads into the last international break, teams have only nine matches left, except Newcastle and Crystal Palace, who have ten. According to Opta, Liverpool is almost certain to win the league with a predicted 89.43 points. They have a strong 12-point lead over Arsenal, who are expected to finish second with around 76.75 points. Nottingham Forest is predicted to finish in third place, securing a Champions League spot, while Manchester City is expected to drop to fourth. Chelsea is forecasted to miss out on the Champions League, finishing sixth overall. Newcastle is predicted to take fifth place, just ahead of Chelsea. Teams like Brighton and Aston Villa are also expected to miss the Champions League, but they could still qualify for European competition. Manchester United, despite some recent improvement, is expected to finish in 13th place, making a European spot unlikely. Tottenham is predicted to come in 14th. At the bottom of the table, Southampton is given a 100% chance of relegation, finishing with just 14.65 points. Leicester and Ipswich are also strongly predicted to face relegation, with high percentages of not surviving in the league. In summary, Liverpool appears set to clinch the title, while both Southampton and Leicester face serious relegation risks, as predicted by Opta.
