Supercomputer makes new Champions League prediction after Liverpool maintains perfect start

A supercomputer has predicted that Arne Slot will lift the Champions League in his first season in charge of Liverpool following an unbeaten start in European competition.

The Reds have won all four of their games so far, including AC Milan, Bologna, RB Leipzig, and Bayer Leverkusen. Their last game, a 4-0 win over German champions Leverkusen, has made a strong statement in their candidacy to be named European champions.

According to CSDB.gg's supercomputer, Liverpool will finish top of the Champions League group stage with seven wins and one loss in eight games before making it all the way to the final held inside Bayern Munich's Allianz Arena. The computer predicts that their opponent will be Premier League title rivals Arsenal, who will reach the final after finishing 16th in the group stages.

Wednesday's 1-0 defeat to Inter Milan will see the Gunners play an extra round in the knockouts, while Liverpool will head straight to the Round of 16. Mikel Arteta's men will beat Aston Villa Bayern, Atalanta, and Inter Milan to meet Liverpool, the supercomputer shows.

Elsewhere, Manchester City will be knocked out by defending champions Real Madrid. They will get through Stuttgart and Monaco before losing to Real in the quarter-finals.

City will play an extra knockout game, like Arsenal, with the 4-1 away defeat to Sporting Lisbon dealing a significant blow to their top-eight chances.

The Reds are on a 12-game winning streak and thus far, Slot has handled the pressure well after replacing Jurgen Klopp. "I think if you work at any club around the world, there is always pressure. So for some clubs or some managers, there is pressure not to go down," he admitted.

"For some, they have to win a lot. In our position, there is always pressure. This is the pressure we give ourselves as well because if you work for Liverpool or play at Liverpool, as a player or a manager, you know the manager is probably going to come next and so many other great players have set the standard so high over here, so it always feels there is a bit of pressure.

"But we also embrace this because that is also what we want. We want to be there, where we are now, we want to compete for everything and, therefore, you have to accept that if you work here or play here that there is pressure."

Following November's international break, Liverpool will face another huge test in Europe. They will welcome Real to Anfield for their fifth game under the new Champio
