Our next most likely position is fourth (23%) and Spurs’ is third (24%). Therefore, suggesting that the likelihood that our north London rivals will actually finish above us is pretty high this term.

Meanwhile, Chelsea are predicted to win the Premier League (64%) and Liverpool should come second (42%). Although that lot from Merseyside do have a 26% chance of winning.

It’s not all doom and gloom though! Jose Mourinho’s Manchester United should, in theory, finish below us. They’ve got a 49% chance of finishing sixth; 24% of coming fifth.

Oh, and just in case you’re wondering, by these calculations, Arsenal have a 4% chance of winning the league this season.

Fantastic.
