Supercomputer reveals worrying prediction after Tottenham lose to Aston Villa

Wait 5 sec.

Tottenham Hotspur have fallen several places in Opta’s supercomputer-predicted Premier League table, and Spurs fans will be extremely concerned about the latest prediction.Spurs desperately needed a win against Aston Villa at home in the lead-up to the international break, but instead, they fell to their third defeat of the campaign in five matches.Fulham’s draw with Man United the next day means that Tottenham will now spend the three-week international break rooted to the bottom of the table.It is not a situation that many would have foreseen at the start of the campaign, and one predictive algorithm suggests that it may be another extremely painful season for the Lilywhites.
