Eddie Howe’s side suffered a heavy defeat to Manchester City on Sunday, one that had huge ramifications at the top of the division.
The Premier League season concludes in less than two week’s time and there is still plenty to play for at both ends of the division.
The title race is still to be decided, there are European spots still to play for and the battle to avoid the drop looks like going right to the wire.
Premier League safety looks assured for Newcastle who will want to end the season on a high ahead of a potentially transformative summer window.
Here, courtesy of FiveThirtyEight, we take a look at the latest supercomputer predictions and where Newcastle United will finish in the Premier League table when it comes to its conclusion on May 22.
5. Tottenham Hotspur
Antonio Conte’s side know they have to win against Arsenal in midweek and hope that Mikel Arteta’s side slip-up again in order for them to secure Champions League football. However, their draw at Anfield on Saturday will give Spurs great hope that they can pull off this unlikely scenario. Chances of qualifying for the Champions League = 24%. Photo: PAUL ELLIS
6. Manchester United
Manchester United will finish the season with their lowest ever Premier League points haul and have no chance of making the Champions League. They may not even qualify for the Europa League should West Ham be able to make the most of their game in hand over the Red Devil’s. Photo: Ash Donelon

8. Wolves
Their draw at Stamford Bridge was a good result, however, it wasn't enough to improve their European hopes. It has been a solid season for Bruno Lage’s side who will hope to improve on what looks like being an 8th place finish this season. Photo: Catherine Ivill
