About the Premier League simulator
Take charge of what is left of the 2026-27 season with the Premier League simulator: put a score on any match still to come and the table rebuilds instantly, or press one button and let the model fill in every remaining fixture.
Every scenario builds on the real 2026-27 table, since results already in the books cannot be edited. The projected standings then flag what your version of the season would mean for each club: a Champions League or Europa League place near the top, or one of the three relegation spots that lead down to the Championship.
How to use the Premier League simulator
- Pick any fixture that is still to come and enter a score; the table re-sorts the moment you do.
- Let the model take over: Simulate season scores every remaining fixture, Simulate matchday only those in the current round.
- Real results are locked, so a match that has been played always counts with its actual score.
- Clear empties every open match again, whether you typed its score or the model did.
- Compare your projection with the live Premier League table, where the same Champions League, Europa League and relegation zones are marked.
Premier League simulator FAQ
How are simulated Premier League scores generated?
Goals come from a Poisson model: for every match, each side's score is a random number whose average depends on the strength of both teams. Strength is rated from two things: where the club finished last season and the market value of its squad. Favorites win more often, but upsets still happen.
Will I get the same table if I simulate the season twice?
Almost never. The model draws new random scores on every run, weighted by team strength, so two runs rarely end in the same order. Clear the page and repeat it a few times, and you will see which places hardly move between runs and which keep changing hands.
How many points have Premier League champions needed?
There is no fixed target. Arsenal won the 2025-26 title with 85 points, seven more than Manchester City. The lowest winning total in a 38-game season is Manchester United's 75 in 1996-97, while Liverpool collected 97 in 2018-19 and still finished second.
Can I test a single result, such as a derby?
Yes. Type a score into that one match and leave the rest blank: the table updates straight away, showing how far that result alone would move each club.
