A SUPERCOMPUTER has predicted the final Premier League table following Chelsea's win over Tottenham.
The Lilywhites saw their unbeaten run come to an end on Monday after falling to a 4-1 defeat to Mauricio Pochettino's Blues.
It was a nightmare evening for Spurs, with two key players forced off with injuries and another two sent off following a series of controversial challenges.
Mickey Van de Ven collapsed to the floor in agony during the first half after clutching his hamstring, with manager Ange Postecoglou admitting after the match that he sustained a "significant" injury.
Meanwhile, James Maddison limped off at the same time with what appeared to be an ankle issue.
Both players are set to face a spell on the sidelines in a huge blow for Tottenham.

Cristian Romero also faces three games out following his straight red card, while Destiny Udogie is set for a one-match ban.
With up to four key players set to miss several upcoming games, Bettingexpert's supercomputer, BETSiE, has predicted Tottenham to drop down the Premier League table.
The supercomputer now thinks Postecoglou's side will finish fifth, behind Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Newcastle.
Chelsea, meanwhile, are predicted to end the campaign in seventh – a significant improvement on last season's 12th-placed finish.

Man City are predicted to win the league once again, while Arsenal are expected to fall short for the second successive season.
Liverpool are also predicted to bounce back from last season's disappointing Prem campaign.
Newcastle are expected to complete the top four, seven points clear of Spurs.
And Manchester United are facing a huge drop down to ninth in the table with their worst-ever Premier League points tally.
The Red Devils could accumulate just 57 points this season – one point less than they did in 2021-22.
At the other end, Sheffield United are predicted to finish the season rock bottom of the table.
Burnley and Luton are also expected to face the drop, meaning all three promoted teams from last season could return to the Championship.
