Supercomputer predicts EPL title winners after Man City, Liverpool failed to topple Arsenal

One point separates Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City with 10 matches to play One point separates Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City with 10 matches to play

A supercomputer has predicted this season's Premier League title winners following Liverpool's draw with Manchester City.

The two title contenders played a 1-1 draw during their encounter at Anfield on Sunday, March 10.

John Stones and Alexis Mac Allister scored for either side, with the result denying both teams a chance to go top.

A win for either City or Liverpool would have seen Arsenal toppled from the summit of the table, who went top following their 2-1 hard-fought win over Brentford on Saturday.

As it stands, only a point is separating the Gunners and third-placed City, with just 10 games to end the season.

Given the close contest, it is almost guaranteed that the title race could go down the wire.

However, Opta, per The Mirror, has predicted how the title race could pan out at the end of the season.

According to the supercomputer's prediction, the Citizens are still the favourites to retain the crown in May.

Pep Guardiola's charges have been given a 45.9% chance of being crowned champions, while Liverpool have a 35.3% chance of winning the title in what will be Jurgen Klopp's final season at Anfield.

Meanwhile, it is bad news for the Gunners, who have been rated as the third favourites to cart home the trophy.

The north Londoners have been given an 18.8% chance of winning the title for the first time in close to two decades.
