Manchester City v Bournemouth: Sutton’s predictions

Chris Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League matches again this season, against a variety of guests.

This week, he takes on singer-songwriter Willie J Healey, who is a Chelsea fan.

Sutton’s prediction: 4-0

Bournemouth finally got their first league win under Andoni Iraola last weekend, but I’m still not convinced about him.

Let’s face it, his side are in for a tough afternoon at Etihad Stadium, where Manchester City have won their past 21 home games.

City boss Pep Guardiola might make a few changes here and it will be interesting to see whether he goes with Jack Grealish or Jeremy Doku on the left. Doku was brilliant there against Brighton, then Grealish came in and played so well against Manchester United.

Whoever plays though, the outcome will be the same – I am expecting the City juggernaut to roll on.

People still seem to be saying that City striker Erling Haaland isn’t quite the same player this season, but I don’t buy that. He is still scoring a barrel-load of goals and I’d expect him to get a couple more here.

Willie’s prediction: 3-0

This one is pretty straightforward as far as a prediction goes, but I do hope Bournemouth start to do well soon because I like Iraola.
