Final Premier League table as AI predicts Newcastle United, Aston Villa, Chelsea & Nottingham Forest's final two games

Newcastle United are on the brink of Champions League qualification following Sunday’s 2-0 victory over Chelsea at St James’ Park.

Prior to kick-off, Newcastle and Chelsea sat fourth and fifth, respectively, in the Premier League table, with only goals scored separating the two sides. Points and goal difference were the exact same.

But that soon changed when Sandro Tonali opened the scoring within two minutes before the Blues were reduced to 10 men after Nicolas Jackson elbowed Sven Botman. A nervy affair was then put to bed in the 91st minute when Bruno Guimaraes’ goal ensured it was the Magpies - not Chelsea - who have one foot in Europe’s premier competition next season.

Eddie Howe’s side currently sit third in the division and require one win from their remaining matches away to Arsenal and at home to Everton. Winning at the Emirates this Sunday would move them up to second.

Manchester City occupy fourth on 65 points, Chelsea remain fifth on 63 points, Aston Villa are sixth on 63 points while Nottingham Forest are seventh on 62 points.
