Former Chelsea striker and football analyst Chris Sutton has shared his predictions for this weekend’s English Premier League matches. The fixtures include several big clashes that could shape the title race and the battle for European places as Matchday action continues across England.
One of the standout games on Saturday is the clash between Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford. Sutton believes United will edge the contest with a narrow 2–1 win. Elsewhere on Saturday, Arsenal are expected to beat Sunderland 2–0 at the Emirates Stadium, while Chelsea are tipped to secure a 2–1 away victory against Wolves despite playing on the road.
Other matches on Sutton’s list include Fulham vs Everton, where he predicts a slim 1–0 win for Fulham, and Burnley vs West Ham, which he sees ending in a 1–1 draw. Sutton also backs Leeds United to defeat Nottingham Forest 2–1, Bournemouth to beat Aston Villa 2–1, and Newcastle United to record a comfortable 3–1 win over Brentford.
On Sunday, attention turns to two important fixtures. Brighton are predicted to overcome Crystal Palace 2–0, while the headline game of the weekend sees Liverpool host Manchester City at Anfield. Sutton expects a thrilling encounter between the two title contenders, predicting a 2–2 draw in what could be one of the season’s best matches.
