Tottenham plunged deeper into the mire as relegation chances soar, while Arsenal and Man City pull clear in two-horse title race: Supercomputer's updated Premier League predictions after five games

The international break is here, giving Premier League clubs time to take stock of what has been a thrilling start to the 2026-27 season, and Opta to reevaluate their title predictions for the season's close.

We're only five games in and there are already a number of intriguing storylines developing, not least so-called relegation favourites Hull City's rampant return to the top flight after nine years away, claiming eight points to sit eighth heading into the break.

Enzo Maresca's start to life in charge of Manchester City couldn't have gone any better, winning all five games to clinch top spot as the only team with a 100 per cent record.

Brighton's stunning 3-0 defeat of Arsenal at the weekend has left the Premier League champions in second, while Fabian Hurzeler's side are next in line in third.

Only goal difference separates fourth to seventh in Brentford, Leeds, Liverpool and Everton, who each remain unbeaten so far.

Meanwhile, Chelsea are 10th with seven points, Michael Carrick's Manchester United are 12th and Tottenham, despite spending around £302million this summer, sit bottom of the table after collecting just two points. With Opta now giving them a 30 per cent chance of relegation, the outlook is already looking bleak for Roberto De Zerbi's side.
