Supercomputer predicts final PL table and it's bad news for Man Utd and Arsenal

Manchester United will not qualify for next season's Champions League... according to a supercomputer.

The Red Devils are currently seventh in the Premier League and are in serious danger of missing out on a top-four finish.

And, if bettingexpert.com's supercomputer is to believed, Ralf Rangnick's battling side will end up in sixth come May.

It's also bad news for Arsenal. The Gunners are currently sixth in the table and many believe they will go on to return to Europe's elite.

The supercomputer, however, is backing them to finish fifth. Still, Arsenal fans would welcome a return to European football after last season's eighth-place finish.

Who do you think will finish in the top four this season? Let us know in the comments below!

Unless something dramatic happens, Manchester City and Liverpool will qualify for the Champions League this season.

The supercomputer believes defending champions City will go on to retain their crown, while the Reds will finish one place behind.

That leaves Chelsea, Tottenham and West Ham battling it out for the two remaining Champions League spots - and the latter are tipped to miss out.

The reigning European champions are predicted to come third, while Antonio Conte's Spurs are backed to come fourth.

Then come the Hammers in seventh, Wolves in eighth, Leicester in ninth and Brighton in 10th to make up the top half of the table.

The supercomputer predicts Aston Villa (11th), Crystal Palace (12th), Southampton (13th) and Leeds (14th) will all comfortably survive relegation - leaving six teams battling the drop.

Norwich are heavy favourites to finish bottom of the table, despite winning their most recent game to move within a point of safety.

Burnley, who are currently bottom of the table, are backed to finish 19th. They, however, are just three points from safety with two games in hand.

The final club tipped for a Championship return are Watford, who are currently one point outside of the relegation zone.

Perhaps most surprising is Newcastle's final Premier League position, with the supercomputer predicting a 17th place finish.

Although the Toon are the richest club in the world, they are currently in the relegation zone, have won just one game all season and fulfilled more fixtures than those around them.

Brentford, who are enjoying a stellar first season in the Premier League, are tipped to finish 15th and manager-less Everton are poised to avoid the drop in 16th.

Speaking earlier this month, talkSPORT pundit Jamie O'Hara backed Tottenham to finish ahead of Man Utd and qualify for the Champions League.

"People are going to call me mad and say I've got my Spurs hat on but I genuinely think Spurs," said O'Hara when asked for his prediction.

"We've now got the manager and he's instilled this disbelief that we're going to go and win games, even when we're not playing that well.

"We didn't play that well against Watford but we got a result in the dying moments. We haven't scored last-minute winners like that for years.

"It's brilliant to see and I think if he gets backed in the transfer window... think we can get in there."
