Every year we boot up the talkSPORT Super Computer as we attempt to predict how the Premier League, among others, will finish nine months later.
A lot can change in that time with managers losing jobs, players getting injured, and transfers being made in January.
But we wondered if our initial output in August actually came close to what the final top-flight table looked like.
Manchester City won the title, Liverpool, Chelsea, and Tottenham Hotspur made the top four, while Cardiff City, Fulham, and Huddersfield Town were relegated in an incredible season.
There were thrills and spill along the way but did we get close to getting it right or does the Super Computer need a new update? Find out below.
