Liverpool are destined to finish third in the Premier League this season, according to data company Gracenote.

The statisticians have crunched the numbers and believe that Jurgen Klopp’s side will finish on 75 points. They predict that Manchester City will win the title on goal difference ahead of Arsenal on 78 points.

Gracenote runs season simulations 10,000 times to come up with its predictions. Points are awarded per match based on the probability of a win, draw or defeat and added to points already won to calculate the overall tally.

They expect Chelsea to complete the top four followed by Tottenham, Manchester United and Everton.

The Reds’ titles chances are rated at 19.5% but Simon Gleave, Gracenote Sports’ head of analysis, said: “Liverpool are still improving and we may be underestimating them still.”

Gracenote predict that lowly Sunderland will still be bottom come May with Hull City and Swansea City also relegated.
