Final Premier League table - where Newcastle United finish after Bournemouth bore draw

Five games in, and Newcastle United continue to look a bit blunt after the sale of Alexander Isak.

Largely without a striker, until they signed two in the final days of the transfer window, the Magpies have struggled to score in their opening five of encounters, drawing a blank at Bournemouth, after doing the same at Aston Villa and Leeds United, all three of which finished in 0-0 draws.

They did, somehow, in the chaos, manage to net twice against Liverpool, although a late 3-2 defeat, as we all know, ended any hopes of points on the day. And also did so v Barcelona, if late on.

Then, finally, Newcastle managed to scrape together a 1-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers, due in no small part to the goalscoring and line-leading exploits of debutant Nick Woltemade.

With all that in mind, we asked AI tool Grok to predict what will happen in this season’s Premier League - and here’s what it predicted.
