Supercomputer predicts Premier League table after Arsenal comeback but do Liverpool make top four after 7-0 mauling?
LIVERPOOL battered Manchester United 7-0 on Sunday to bolster their top four hopes.
But our supercomputer still doesn’t think they’re going to make it.
The Reds have had a difficult season to date, but appear to finally be clicking if Sunday’s Man United mauling is anything to go by.
Boffins and brainiacs over at bettingexpert have used a supercomputer to predict what is most likely to happen over the rest of the season.
It takes into consideration things like xG and xA… running a simulation 100,000 times to come up with the most likely scenarios.
And the supercomputer thinks that Liverpool will come SIXTH – despite putting seven past hapless United.
Tottenham currently occupy fourth spot, three points above Liverpool and four ahead of Newcastle.
Antonio Conte’s side have played a game more than the Reds, however, and two more than the Toon.
And the supercomputer reckons that Eddie Howe’s men can recover from their goal-shy blip to snatch back fourth.
Arsenal are also predicted to fend off Manchester City to win the title, following their dramatic two-goal comeback against Bournemouth on Saturday.
