Tottenham v Wolves: Sutton’s predictions

Wolves #Wolves

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

This week, he takes on two Manchester City fans – frontman and guitarist Tom Ogden and drummer Joe Donovan from indie band Blossoms – and a Chelsea supporter – Madness singer Suggs.

Sutton’s prediction: 1-1

It was incredible to watch what Ange Postecoglou tried to do by keeping such a high line when Tottenham went down to nine men against Chelsea.

I was a fan of his at Celtic, and I know he likes to do things differently, but I’d never seen anything like that in my lifetime – and I loved it.

They lost 4-1 in the end but had chances at 2-1 and came so close to getting a draw.

Spurs are depleted now with injuries to James Maddison and Micky van de Ven, and Cristian Romero and Destiny Udogie suspended, so it’s going to be a patched-up Tottenham side at Molineux.

Postecoglou is not going to change the way he plays, but of course all of those absences will have an impact.

Wolves were very unlucky to lose to a late Sheffield United penalty last week – it looked like a dive to me – and they have been much improved in recent weeks. On that basis, I’m going for a draw.

Tom’s prediction: 0-2

Joe’s prediction: 1-2

Suggs’ prediction: 2-0
