The supercomputer has spoken…
Following Arsenal’s dramatic victory over West Ham United on Sunday afternoon, that put the Gunners’ just two matches from title-winning glory, it now seems the last great story of the 2025/26 Premier League season is over who will finish within the final relegation spot.
17th placed Europa League champions Tottenham Hotspur had been expected to capitalise on the Hammers’ setback when facing Leeds United on Monday night, but could only come away with a 1-1 draw against Daniel Farke’s side.
While the point does move the north Londoners a further point towards safety, their future is far from secure, with two matches still to play.
To make matters even more complicated, Spurs’ remaining fixtures include a trip to Stamford Bridge, potentially placing favour back in the hands of West Ham.
The very presence of Spurs within a relegation battle proves the absolute unpredictability of this situation. And so, as we enter this final stretch of the season, we’ve taken on the advice of Artificial Intelligence in order to find an answer as to who will emerge victorious and stay in the Premier League.
AI chatbot ChatGPT has looked at each side’s form, the underlying stats, and match congestion to predict the result of each match.

West Ham’s final two games:
Newcastle vs West Ham, Sunday 17th May
AI prediction: Newcastle 2–1 West Ham
What Chat GPT said: “Newcastle at home are still one of the toughest environments for struggling teams.
“West Ham should compete physically and probably create a few dangerous moments from transitions or set pieces, but Newcastle’s pressing and attacking pressure usually wear teams down over 90 minutes.
“West Ham’s defensive organisation has not been reliable enough recently for me to back them away from home here.”
West Ham vs Leeds, Sunday 24th May
AI prediction: West Ham 2–1 Leeds
What Chat GPT said: “This now becomes an enormous survival match.
“I expect West Ham to approach it with urgency and directness from the first minute because they know the importance of the occasion.
“Leeds are energetic and difficult to contain, but they can become disorganised defensively when games turn emotional and stretched.
“West Ham’s home advantage and physicality should just about carry them through.”
Spurs’ final two games:
Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspur, Tuesday 19th May
AI prediction: Chelsea 2–0 Tottenham
What Chat GPT said: “The Leeds draw increases the pressure massively, and that’s a problem because Tottenham have struggled all season in difficult away matches where they need composure.
“Chelsea are inconsistent, but they still control games well against weaker defensive teams and should have enough quality to exploit Spurs’ defensive mistakes.”
Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton, Sunday 24th May
AI prediction: Tottenham 1–1 Everton
What Chat GPT said: “I still expect a tense and cautious final-day game.
“Tottenham may play with anxiety because survival could depend on avoiding defeat rather than chasing a win.
“Everton are organised and experienced in these types of situations, and I think Spurs struggle to create enough sustained pressure to fully break them down.”
How the final Premier League relegation zone would look:
Even though West Ham are expected to come out of the final few matches with more points than their rivals —three compared to just one for Spurs— the Irons’s current goal difference deficit means that, according to this AI prediction, they would still go down.
West Ham are currently on -20, while Spurs are 11 goals better off at -9.
So, even with these positive results, the Hammers’ total wouldn’t change at all, with the AI prediction suggesting they would concede as many as they score over the final few games.
Spurs would cling on to their Premier League status by goal difference alone, while West Ham would be sent down into the Championship.
