Fans were treated to a thrilling weekend of Prem action following its glorious return after a summer break.
Liverpool, Man City and Arsenal were among those celebrating wins.
But the likes of Man United, Everton and Bournemouth were left cursing morale-damaging defeats.
Now, boffins at Plejmo have fired up their in-house Supercomputer to predict the final Premier League table.

And it's set to be the most exciting title race in years, with Man City and Arsenal both finishing on 86 points.
However, it will be more heartache for the Gunners again, who are tipped to miss out on top spot due to goal difference.
That will see the title return to the Etihad once more, with current holders Liverpool expected to finish third and SIX points behind the leaders.
The fourth and – for now – final Champions League spot is heading to Aston Villa, although they will be eight points off third.

That sees them come just ahead of Newcastle in fifth, with Chelsea securing Europa League football in sixth.
But there's a huge improvement for Ruben Amorim's United, who will trade last season's 15th place finish for seventh spot and the Europa League.

They are expected to finish level with Crystal Palace but see off their rivals on goal difference.
Finishing in the top half are Nottingham Forest and Brighton, again tied on points and decided by goal difference.
Heading into the bottom half, Spurs are next up with a disappointing 11th place finish under Thomas Frank.
Everton and Bournemouth follow after ending on level points.
While Brentford and Leeds are tipped to beat the drop with 14th and 15th place finishes.
Fulham are saved from relegation by just three points, while the final team to stay up will be Sunderland.
The Black Cats are predicted to finish on level points with Wolves, but it's the Midlands club who will go down due to inferior goal difference.
Finally, Burnley are expected to come second-last.
And it's misery for West Ham, with the Supercomputer tipping them for bottom spot with just six wins all season.

Linfield are better prepared and battle-ready for second crack at Shelbourne, insists David Healy
The two League champions are reunited in a tasty UEFA Conference League playoff with the first leg at Tolka Park on Thursday night. Shelbourne ran out 2-1 aggregate victors in a Champions League first qualifying round tie last month, winning the first leg 1-0 in Dublin followed by a 1-1 draw at Windsor Park. Linfield were undercooked ahead of their venture south but they have now played seven competitive games, including six European battles. "We will find out just how much better we are but, personally, I think we have improved," said the Blues boss. "Our fitness levels are better, our performance levels are hopefully better. "On our previous visit here we hadn't played a competitive game but we have now played seven. "We are getting to where we want to be. Are we top level? Not yet in terms of physicality and what we want to see. But we are certainly better physically than the first Tolka Park game." Linfield had chances to defeat Shels in their first clash and Ben Hall's sending off at Windsor Park didn't help their cause, but Healy accepts the better side edged it. "Over the two legs Shels probably deserved to go through," he added. "It felt like the two teams were destined to meet again. "I believe people in the League of Ireland, and Shelbourne especially, were pleased with the draw, so it's up to us to perform and show supporters of both clubs that we have improved from the first game here."

It's déjà vu for David Healy's underdogs, but here's why they have enough to land knockout blow against Shelbourne
It's fitting that journalists from French newspaper L'Equipe were the founding fathers of the European Cup, as tonight's showdown between Shelbourne and Linfield has a whiff of déjà vu to it. Just 43 days after Shels beat the Blues 1-0 in the Champions League thanks to Mipo Odubeko, the two Irish champions must do it all again at Tolka Park, this time with a place in the Conference League proper at stake.
