Supercomputer reveals how likely Tottenham are to get relegated after point at Anfield

1 hour ago 20

Opta’s Supercomputer has revealed Tottenham’s Premier League relegation chances following their vital draw against Liverpool.

Over the last few weeks, pundits have been warning Spurs that they are in mortal danger of being relegated, with the Lilywhites looking more and more like relegation fodder with each passing week.

The concerns were growing as Igor Tudor struggled to get a performance out of the players available to him since replacing Thomas Frank at the helm.

However, in his fifth game in charge, the Croat was finally able to win his first point as Tottenham boss, as his side produced a battling performance to emerge with a 1-1 draw from Anfield.

Supercomputer says Tottenham are overwhelming favourites to stay up

While Spurs can take confidence from their performance and result at Anfield, they still sit just a point above Nottingham Forest and West Ham.

However, despite this, Opta’s Supercomputer Tottenham are much less likely than the other two to go down.

The data analysis platform gives the Lilywhites just a 13.38 per cent chance of finishing in the bottom three this season. That means that, according to Opta, Spurs have an 86.62 per cent chance of staying up.

How likely are West Ham and Nottingham Forest to do well?

Although Wolves and Burnley are still mathematically not relegated, Opta consider them to be all but down, with the two clubs deemed 99.93 per cent and 99.65 per cent likely to go down, respectively.

West Ham are favourites to finish 18th and join the pair in the Championship next season, with a 46.57 per cent chance of relegation.

Forest have been handed a 34.05 per cent chance of finishing in the bottom three, which means that they are around two and a half as likely as Spurs to go down, as per Opta’s calculations.
