League Table Predictor from 4-4-2

Reckon that's a bit off to be honest, I don't think City are such strong favourites.
It looks to me as if we have signed another 'average' player. I'll hold back my complete opinion until I see the lad play

The rest:

Note that United have only played 4 of the top 9, and have lost all 4!
As Spurs have slipped as they start to play some of the better teams, I'd expect United to do same

It seems to me, at the moment, that 85-87 points will win the title this season.

Someone could get hot, but it looks like all the teams have flaws at the moment, that'll prevent a 90 point total.

Call that 60 points from 25 games then? Would get us to 88. Something like 19 wins, 3 draws, 2 defeats (or less realistically 20-0-5 or 18-6-1).

Would need a longish winning run in there, certainly needs a string of away wins back to back. Jury still out but still possible.

I think the league is more competitive now at the top, there's 8-9 teams of real quality (presuming Chelsea get their act together, the squad is capable)....just look at the goals for, there are 7 teams scoring goals at a decent clip!

Offsetting this a bit is there are 3-4 teams that are very poor.

Just don't think that anyone's going to go @ 2.4-2.5 ppg clip for the 25 remaining matches, so a little less around 2.3 ppg may get you there

We are having to many draws at the moment - though only the draw against Luton was a really bad result. Chelsea and Brighton are difficult away games where we could be pleased with a point (not regarding how the games panned out, but before) and we definitely should be happy with the point at the Eithad.

Still, we have got only 4 away games at the top 10 left. A point each in these games (preferably a three pointer in there as well) and winning 7 out of 8 of our games against the bottom 10 gives us an extra 25 points. Say two draws and one loss against the top 10 at home, win the rest of the home games – an extra 32 points.

That would give us a total of 85 points. Doable but unrealistic I feel. I guess it boils down to how many other teams can take points of our direct rivals – and if we can beat them at Anfield.

Looking at the Season To Go, 58 points is the max anyone has gone for the last 23 matches.

City & LFC did it in 2021/2 on the way to 93 & 92 point seasons.
LFC 19/20 season of 99 points, it was 56 for the last 23
City 18/19 season of 98 points, it was 57
LFC 18/19 season of 97 points, it was 58
City 17/18 season of 100 points, it was 57

So, even if 85 points wins the title this season, it excludes anyone outside of the current top 4.

I am away in Spain for a few weeks, so won't be able to do any updates during this time.

For time, next 3 fixtures are LOSS, LOSS & DRAW

For equivalent match,  Man U @ home was a WIN, Arsenal @ home was a DRAW, Burnley away was a WIN

We really need to start winning games vs the top 6, currently bottom below Utd and we aren’t doing much better in the top 9 table either.

Our performance in the remaining corresponding fixtures must have been really bad last season. 

We have 20 fixtures remaining, including today's against Arsenal, in which we picked up 33 equivalent points last season.

On the plus side, there's vast room for improvement for us...

On the minus side, Arsenal did really well in corresponding fixtures last season...

With the recent trends, I may have to add Chelsea back in & drop Newcastle!

I'd say, presuming ourselves or City can reach 90 points, that the rest are not capable of getting there.
