Supercomputer Predicts Final Premier League Standings After Antonio Conte's Arrival

• Antonio Conte is not expected to have an instant impact at Tottenham, according to Sporting Index
• According to the betting firm's supercomputer, Spurs will emerge as the fourth-best team in London behind Arsenal, West Ham and Chelsea
• Man City have also been backed to retain the domestic crown ahead of the Blues who currently lead the log

A supercomputer has predicted how the Premier League table will look at the end of this season following the appointment of Antonio Conte as Tottenham Hotspur manager.

Tottenham swung into action on Tuesday, November 2, to name Conte their new boss following the departure of Nuno Espirito Santo who was sacked.

Nuno was shown the door after Spurs were thrashed 3-0 by Man United last weekend.

The result left the north London club sitting eighth on the log after five wins from 10 matches.

However, according to the betting firm Sporting Index's football experts, the arrival of the experienced Italian boss will not have an immediate impact on Tottenham, predicting the side will only manage 58 points - their lowest tally in 13 years.

Man City have instead been backed to retain the title, with the Blues, who currently lead the log finishing a point behind them.

Liverpool have been predicted to finish third, with Man United who have been agonizingly underwhelming completing the top four slots.

The Gunners have been backed to finish fifth with 62 points, missing out on a Champions League slot once again.
