Artificial intelligence predicts Arsenal to win the 2026-27 Premier League season, ahead of Manchester City and Liverpool. The projection was made as Leeds United prepare for their second consecutive Premier League campaign starting in 2026, following their successful return last season.

Artificial intelligence has projected Arsenal to win the 2026-27 Premier League season, with Manchester City and Liverpool expected to finish second and third respectively. The forecast comes as Leeds United prepare for their second consecutive campaign in the Premier League after successfully avoiding relegation last season.

Leeds, managed by Daniel Farke, completed their return campaign in 14th place, securing safety eight points clear with three games remaining. Sunderland also avoided the drop, finishing seventh and qualifying for the Europa League. Meanwhile, Burnley, Wolves, and West Ham were relegated, making room for newly promoted sides Coventry City, Ipswich Town, and Hull City, who won the Championship, finished runners-up, and gained promotion via the play-offs respectively.

While bookmakers favor Coventry, Ipswich, and Hull to struggle in the Premier League, the AI highlights the challenge of a second season at the top level. Arsenal were predicted to retain supremacy thanks to a young and experienced core approaching its prime. Manchester City are tipped to face some uncertainty following Pep Guardiola’s era, despite strong squad depth.

Manchester United are expected to improve under new management, with Bruno Fernandes playing a key role, while Chelsea’s season relies heavily on consistent performances from young talents such as Cole Palmer. Aston Villa completed the AI’s projected top six, securing a regular European competition spot.
