The next 10 Ballon d’Or winners predicted by AI
Who could win the Ballon d’Or across the next ten years?
20
20th: Sunderland
(30 points, -30 GD)
Starting the countdown at the bottom of the table, AI thinks Championship playoff winners Sunderland will finish in 20th place.
They believe Regis Le Bris’ side will accumulate 30 points, though, 18 more than Southampton, who were 20th in 24/25.
19
19th: Burnley
(34 points, -25 GD)
Another newly promoted side, Burnley are believed to be the next side to go down. Scott Parker worked wonders at Turf Moor in his first campaign, conceding just 16 goals in 46 games and ending on 100 points.
However, potentially losing some of those defensive stars, including goalkeeper James Trafford, could see the Clarets struggle.
18
18th: Wolves
(38 points, -20 GD)
Wolves have been flirting with the bottom three in the 23/24 and 24/25 seasons, and AI thinks 25/26 is the year they are going down.
After losing Matheus Cunha to Man Utd, the Old Gold will need to replace their top scorer and could struggle under Vitor Pereira.
17
17th: Crystal Palace
(40 points, -15 GD)
Just avoiding the drop are the 24/25 FA Cup winners Crystal Palace. AI claims that the fixture congestion from Europe could see them struggle in the Premier League.
Another problem for the Eagles is player sales, with the likes of Eberechi Eze, Marc Guehi and Jean-Philippe Mateta all being linked with moves away from Selhurst Park.
16
16th: Leeds United
(42 points, -12 GD)
AI feels that Leeds United, the Championship title winners, could buck the trend and avoid relegation by finishing on 42 points.
If they do, the Whites, who won the second tier title in stoppage time on the final day, will be the first side since the 2022/23 season to get promoted and remain in the Premier League.
15
15th: Brentford
(46 points, -8 GD)
Despite a top 10 finish in 24/25, Brentford are next on the list, with AI believing Bryan Mbeumo’s potential departure could result in a drop-off for Thomas Frank’s side.
Mbeumo scored 20 of the Bees’ 66 goals last season but could be on his way to Man Utd, which may see them slide down the table.
14
14th: Bournemouth
(48 points, -5 GD)
Another side who finished in the top 10 last season, Bournemouth, could also be in line to lose some of their star players.
Already selling Dean Huijsen to Real Madrid, Milos Kerkez and Antoine Semenyo are also in demand, with AI feeling that any sales will negatively impact the Cherries.
13
13th: West Ham
(50 points, -2 GD)
One side that AI feels will slightly improve from 24/25 is West Ham, who finished 14th in the previous campaign on 43 points.
Graham Potter is preparing for his first full season in charge at the London Stadium and will be looking to make his mark in the transfer window.
12
12th: Everton
(52 points, 0 GD)
Another team AI think will finish one place higher than 24/25 is Everton. David Moyes came in and steadied the ship for the Toffees and will be leading them at their new stadium in 25/26.
It is added that keeping hold of star defender Jarrad Branthwaite and adding depth to the side is key, though.
11
11th: Manchester United
(54 points, +2 GD)
Things couldn’t have gone much worse for Man Utd in 24/25, so AI does have them finishing higher but still in the bottom half with 54 points.
‘Integrating new signings and addressing defensive frailties’ under Ruben Amorim in a 3-4-3 system could still see the Red Devils struggle, ending 12 points and four places better off.
