🤖 AI vs Humans: Predicting the results of Premier League Matchday 33
Let us know your predictions in the comments!
Last week, we pitted our special guest - singer-songwriter Tom Speight - against an AI to see who could most accurately predict the results of Premier League matchday 32.

Tom correctly called four correct results over the course of the matchday, but was out of luck when it came to correct score predictions.
And he beat the AI, who only managed two correct results.
That leaves the scores (three points for a correct score and one point for a correct result) at 214-186 in the AI's favour after 32 rounds of games this season.
Let's see if this week's special guest, DJ, producer and Manchester United fan Josh Baker, can get the human race caught up.
Watch the video to find out what Josh and the AI went for in the three biggest matches of the weekend; Aston Villa v Newcastle, Manchester United v Wolves and Tottenham v Nottingham Forest.
'Back It Up' by Josh Baker and Omar+ is out now.

Liverpool get Alexander Isak boost as striker hands in Newcastle transfer request
Alexander Isak has informed Newcastle of his desire to explore a move away from the club this summer. The Swedish striker, who hit 23 Premier League goals last season, has been the subject of heavy transfer speculation this summer, with some reports claiming Liverpool were willing to offer £120million for his services. Eyebrows were raised today when he was left out of Newcastle's travelling squad for a pre-season tour of Asia, though the club insisted that was due to a minor thigh injury. It has now been revealed, though, that Isak is exploring his options. According to Mail Sport, the player does not want to commit his future to Newcastle amid interest from Liverpool and Saudi Arabia. Isak has three years left on his contract, meaning Newcastle are in a strong negotiating position. It is thought that an offer of around £150m, in conjunction with Isak's desire to move, would be difficult for Newcastle to refuse. That price would constitute a British record fee, usurping the £116m Liverpool paid for Florian Wirtz earlier this summer. Liverpool are aware of the player's intentions. It was expected that they would withdraw their interest in Isak after yesterday completing a £79m deal for Eintracht Frankfurt's Hugo Ekitike, but they have reportedly informed Newcastle that they are willing to make another approach. The Reds could add yet more forwards should Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez leave this summer. Al-Hilal are also preparing a significant offer for Isak, though the player is not thought to be keen on a move to the Saudi Pro League. Newcastle are now exploring striker options, having missed out on deals for Ekitike and Joao Pedro earlier this summer, with the latter opting to join Chelsea. Eddie Howe has made clear that he does not want Isak to leave St James' Park this summer, saying: 'I think it's difficult for me to ever give 100 per cent clarity on any player, I'd never do that. 'All I can say is Alex is happy at Newcastle, he loves the players, the staff, the team. 'I've never had any issue with him and I'm confident he's going to be here at the start of the season. "We have a few of those players who are irreplaceable. Your top players are so hard to find, so hard to recruit, and so hard to develop. So when you have them, you need to treasure them. Of course we're desperate to keep him as part of our team."

Luke Shaw ready to leave Manchester United after 11 years
Luke Shaw is prepared to leave Manchester United after 11 years at the club. According to The Sun, the 30-year-old is aware of serious interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia and is willing to listen to offers this summer. Shaw endured a difficult 2024-25 campaign, as he was limited to only 12 appearances in all competitions due to different injury issues. The England international was part of Ruben Amorim's first-team in the Europa League final defeat to Tottenham Hotspur in May, but he featured in a back-three due to shortage of centre-backs. Shaw is expected to struggle for opportunities at Old Trafford in 2025-26, with Diogo Dalot, Patrick Dorgu and summer signing Diego Leon all competing for minutes at left-back. The defender joined the Manchester titans 11 years ago from Southampton in a deal worth up to £30 million. He has since made 287 appearances in all competitions, scoring four goals and providing 29 assists. But injuries have been a big issue for Shaw, who has reportedly missed almost five years of his United career due to fitness problems. The experienced left-back has two years left on his contract but he wants a new challenge elsewhere. Amorim is not in a rush to get rid of the player as he is seen as a popular and influential figure within the dressing room. If United decide to sell Shaw this summer, they are unlikely to recoup a good fee given his injury record and lack of appearances in recent years. Stats from Transfermarkt

James Trafford reveals Manchester City ambitions amid growing transfer interest
Manchester City's interest in bringing James Trafford back to the club seem to align with the goalkeeper's own beliefs regarding his Etihad Stadium hopes of the past. Trafford departed City in 2023 in pursuit of regular Premier League football, joining Burnley in a deal worth up to £19 million. But just two years on, a return to the Etihad is under serious consideration as the club assesses potential changes in their goalkeeping department. As things stand, City are only expected to act on Trafford if one of their two senior goalkeepers departs. Ederson remains the subject of interest from Galatasaray, while Stefan Ortega is open to becoming a No. 1 elsewhere should the opportunity arise. As a direct result of those considerations, James Trafford is now being seriously considered in both scenarios, with club officials holding talks in recent weeks over what a return could look like. Importantly, City retain a £40 million buy-back clause on Trafford, but that is understood to be a ceiling figure rather than a fixed fee, with the Premier League giants keen to negotiate a lower price with Burnley. City also maintain the right to match any offer accepted by the Clarets. Should another suitor – like Newcastle United – meet Burnley's valuation, Trafford's preference is still believed to be a return to the Etihad, where he spent much of his development pathway. Speaking during a recent appearance on The Ben Foster Podcast, James Trafford opened up on the manner of his Manchester City exit back in 2023, when he brought an end to his association with the Etihad Stadium by joining Burnley in a deal worth up to £19 million. 'I wanted to go, and when the opportunity came to play in the Premier League and go to Burnley, I was like, 'Yeah, I want to do that', because I was away at the Euros at the time, and I'd known about Burnley for a long time before and it was more or less done before the Euros,' Trafford revealed. He continued, 'And I remember speaking to the goalie coach [at Manchester City] and he was like, 'We've obviously got interest, we've accepted the bid, do you want to go?' And I was like, 'Yeah, I want to go in the Premier League'.' However, James Trafford went on to admit, 'I said I wanted to play for Man City, and who doesn't want to be Man City's number 1, I believed I could be, but obviously at this moment in time, I'm not going to say that I want to be XY and Z because and he's obviously proved myself I need to get better. 'And I think this is the best for me. And he was like, yeah, I agree, this is the best thing for you. So it was quite simple in that way, just me and the goalie coach speaking like that… And my heart was set on it, and they're not daft in how they did the deal, but like they knew I wanted to go and they knew it was really good for us.' Looking to his future ambitions within the game amid strong speculation concerning a return to Manchester City this summer, Trafford admitted, 'That's where I've always been aiming for, the top of the Prem. Everyone wants to go there and everyone wants to play there. 'And then you to get there, you have to play games and prove and get into a level where when you do go back to wherever I end up, whenever, then I'm ready for it and I'm the best equipped and ready to perform.' As it stands, City are closely monitoring the situation but remain patient in their approach. While no formal bid has been submitted, the club are prepared to act quickly if Ederson or Ortega depart in the coming weeks. From a strategic standpoint, bringing Trafford back would allow City to secure a long-term option in goal – a player well-versed in the club's system and expectations, and someone who fits within the homegrown quota. At just 22 years of age, he still has significant scope for development and would be well-placed to grow under Pep Guardiola's coaching staff. With pre-season underway next week and transfer activity heating up across the Premier League, all eyes will remain on City's next move. Should Burnley begin formal discussions with another club, the decision could come to a head quickly, and the opportunity for Trafford to realise his Manchester City ambition may arrive sooner than expected.
