Supercomputer predicts Premier League table with Man Utd and Aston Villa shocks and Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool verdicts

Preparations are underway ahead of the 2025/26 Premier League season, with Manchester United and Manchester City both targeting improvement next season.

The Red Devils have no European football after a 15th place finish and will look to put a difficult 2024/25 campaign well and truly behind them. They have signed Matheus Cunha and are looking to complete a deal for Bryan Mbeumo. Five players have handed transfer requests in sales that could total over £150m, which would give Ruben Amorim a chance to reinvest in his squad.

City have had a busy summer on and off the pitch. They signed a host of players including the likes of Rayan Cherki and Tijjani Reijnders ahead of the Club World Cup. They played four games in the tournament before being knocked out by Al-Hilal in the round of 16.

A 2025/26 Premier League Supercomputer, via BettingLounge.co.uk, has predicted how both Manchester clubs will fare next season. The Premier League Supercomputer, conducted by BettingLounge.co.uk, is a probability model, not determined by human predictions or bias. What happens is the Supercomputer estimates the outcome of each remaining fixture based on a team’s current strength - based on factors such as league position and form - and betting market odds.

The machine then simulates the remaining games in a season 10,000 times and constructs an average league table from the 10,000 simulations, to rule out anomalous results.
