AI predicts 2026-27 Premier League table with Arsenal first, Manchester City second, and Liverpool third in the projection. Manchester United is placed fourth, followed by Chelsea fifth and Aston Villa sixth.

Burnley, Wolves, and West Ham were relegated last season, making way for the Championship winners Coventry City along with Ipswich Town and Hull City, who enter the top flight for the 2026-27 campaign.
