Supercomputer makes final West Ham United Premier League prediction
The Opta supercomputer has predicted where West Ham United will finish in this season’s Premier League table.
The East London club currently sit in seventh place in the table on 14 points, with four wins, two draws and two losses.
David Moyes’s outfit have scored 15 goals along the way, as well as conceding 12 times from their eight matches so far.
Simulating the current Premier League season 10,000 times, the Opta supercomputer has predicted the Hammers to finish eighth.
Premier League giants Manchester United and Chelsea have been predicted to finish behind the men in claret and blue in ninth and tenth places respectively.
Strong start
The Hammers have every chance of a very positive final place in the table after their impressive start to the new campaign.
It began somewhat disappointingly with a 1-1 draw against Bournemouth, but the East London club quickly got into gear, defeating Chelsea, Brighton and Luton Town.
Defeats against powerhouses Manchester City and Liverpool followed, but the Hammers have since recovered with a win against Sheffield United and an impressive draw against Newcastle United.
The task now for the manager and his talented squad is keeping up their form for the entire campaign, which is no mean feat.
Making the task harder is the fact that the club must also try and successfully compete in other competitions, namely the Europa League, where they have won both of their group stage matches so far.
The London Stadium outfit are also into the League Cup round of 16, where they will meet Arsenal, with their FA Cup journey not yet underway.
In other West Ham news, the Hammers are in the hunt to sign one Bundesliga ace, with £35million needed to seal the transfer.
