Sunderland head into the run-in lifted by their 2-1 comeback over Newcastle United, sitting 11th on 43 points after 31 games. Rather than glancing downwards, they are chasing the top half and a possible European push. Sunderland Echo notes that it asked X’s AI chatbot, Grok, to forecast the final seven matches.
Grok predicts a 3-1 victory against Tottenham.
A controlled 2-0 success against Wolves is forecast. Manchester United are backed to prevail 2-1 in the toughest test of the run-in.
The model then goes for a 1-1 draw with Everton before a 2-1 final-day win over Chelsea. That sequence would cap an impressive finish at the Stadium of Light.
Taken together, those forecasts add up to 14 points from seven games and a strong case for a top-half finish.
