We’re just hours away from the 2022/23 Premier League campaign getting underway, and predictions are rolling in from all over the place.
Many pundits are expecting the title race to go down to the wire again with the majority seeing the usual duopoly of Liverpool and Manchester City dominating proceedings.
Elsewhere, newly-promoted Bournemouth, Fulham, and Nottingham Forest will be desperate to avoid an immediate return to the Championship.
But where will Leeds United configure in all of this?
With the talking heads and bookmakers already having their say, the next logical place to harvest a prediciton from is popular video game franchise FIFA.
Ahead of the new campaign, BonusFinder put together the current squads of each team based on their summer transfer activity in FIFA 22, and simulated the upcoming Premier League season.
They ran the simulation 200 times and produced an average table based on the results.
Check out the final standings below...

Although Erling Haaland took home the Golden Boot for 67% of the seasons, but it wasn’t enough to deal with the losses of Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus.](https://www.thestar.co.uk/webimg/b25lY21zOjU1MTYxNjBkLTBkYjItNDEyYy1hNTAxLWM0MjljMDE3NjY3MDphYTMxODZmNS1jYTIwLTRiYjAtYTEwNy1jNzkyMDA0ZTZkNGQ=.jpg?crop=3:2&width=640)

![If this happens it will be fully deserved for David Moyes and his players. They’ve quietly gone about their business in the transfer window, and it paid dividends with Champions League football finally secured on average.](https://www.thestar.co.uk/webimg/b25lY21zOjlhMjVhZDc4LTZmODUtNGQxMy1iY2Q5LTA4YzEyMDg5NGM5OTpjYjg4ZTgwNC02OGNhLTRmNDMtODdhMi03NWVhYzQxYzMwMDA=.jpg?crop=3:2&width=640)

![Probably a surprisingly high position in the table, Wolves haven’t done much in the transfer window so far but the quality they already possess helped them to a spot in Europe. Safe to say most Wolves fans will take a sixth-placed finish before a ball is kicked.](https://www.thestar.co.uk/webimg/b25lY21zOmE0M2EwMGJkLWE4YWEtNGI1NS04MDI5LWYyMzBjM2YxNjQ0Nzo5NmUwZjMzZS1jZTBiLTQ3MmEtOGRhZi0wOWFlZDU1ZWU2OWU=.jpg?crop=3:2&width=640)
