Supercomputer predicts stunning Premier League shake-up for 2025–26
The latest Supercomputer forecast for the 2025–26 Premier League season has dropped, and it paints a surprising picture from top to bottom. From Arsenal finally ending their title drought to historic lows for Manchester United and Wolves, here’s how every team is projected to finish, starting from the bottom up.
20. Wolves – 31 points
Wolves are still winless after ten games, and the outlook remains bleak. The Supercomputer expects them to stay rooted to the bottom, managing just eight wins all season.
19. Burnley – 35 points
Daniel Farke’s men look set to return to the Championship. Despite moments of fight, Burnley are tipped for 19th place, continuing a downward spiral.
18. West Ham – 40 points
A tough season for the Hammers sees them relegated despite matching the typical survival points tally. Nuno Espirito Santo hasn’t steadied the ship after Graham Potter's exit, with the club paying the price for post-Moyes instability.

17. Leeds United – 40 points
Survival would be a huge win for newly promoted Leeds. They just edge out West Ham on goal difference, according to the projection.
16. Everton – 41 points
Big summer signings and a new stadium haven’t sparked a real revival. Despite a few encouraging performances, David Moyes’ return isn’t translating to points on the board.
15. Sunderland – 43 points
Sunderland’s early season promise under Regis Le Bris has won plaudits, but the Supercomputer believes the club will fade. Still, survival is a success in their first year back in the top flight.
14. Fulham – 43 points
Another season of mid-table security for Fulham, but little sign of progress. Marco Silva's men are consistent, yet unable to break into the next tier.

13. Nottingham Forest – 46 points
A far cry from last season’s European exploits, Forest are in freefall. Three managers in one season, including a failed spell under Ange Postecoglou, has left Sean Dyche with damage control.
12. Manchester United – 46 points
Despite a brief resurgence that included a win at Anfield, United’s woes continue. Ruben Amorim’s side is projected to post another historically poor finish for the club.
11. Brentford – 47 points
Amid heavy player turnover and the departure of Thomas Frank, Brentford have exceeded expectations. New manager Keith Andrews appears to be steering the ship competently.
10. Brighton & Hove Albion – 49 points
Brighton are no longer the darlings of overachievement, but Fabian Hürzeler is keeping them stable. A top-half finish shows steady hands at the helm.

9. Aston Villa – 54 points
After a rough start, Unai Emery has turned things around once again. Villa are comfortably in the top ten thanks to a strong run of form.
8. Newcastle United – 55 points
Injuries and underperforming signings have stunted Newcastle's progress. Despite huge potential, the Magpies fall short of European qualification.
7. Bournemouth – 59 points
Andoni Iraola continues to build a formidable side at Bournemouth. A projected seventh-place finish could deliver the club’s first taste of European football.
6. Crystal Palace – 61 points
Fresh off their historic FA Cup triumph, Palace show they’re no one-season wonder. Oliver Glasner’s team remains upwardly mobile, securing a Europa League spot.

5. Tottenham Hotspur – 64 points
Spurs narrowly miss out on the top four despite vast improvement. However, inconsistent form and growing tension between fans and manager Thomas Frank cast a shadow over their progress.
4. Chelsea – 68 points
Trophy success under Enzo Maresca masks another large points gap from the top. Still, back-to-back Champions League qualifications mark real stability at Stamford Bridge.
3. Manchester City – 71 points
Despite flashes of brilliance from Erling Haaland, City’s transitional phase under Pep Guardiola sees them drop to third. Vulnerability in big matches proves costly.
2. Liverpool – 80 points
Arne Slot’s reign started brightly, but Liverpool have hit a rough patch. A second-place finish keeps them in the Champions League but will feel like a missed opportunity.

1. Arsenal – 92 points
Arsenal are finally crowned champions after more than 20 years of waiting. With Viktor Gyökeres leading the line and Arteta’s project fully blossomed, the Gunners finish 12 points clear at the top.
