Chris Sutton’s Premier League Prediction: Tottenham vs. Fulham

Chris Sutton is providing predictions for all 380 Premier League matches this season, engaging with a variety of guests. For week 13, he faces off against boxer Sunny Edwards, a known Chelsea supporter. Sutton’s prediction: 3-1 Sutton expresses his enjoyment in observing Tottenham’s play. Despite the absence of Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero in their recent match against Manchester City, the team traveled to Etihad Stadium, delivered an outstanding performance, and also managed to keep a clean sheet. A significant concern for Spurs is the injury sustained by Guglielmo Vicario during that game. Fraser Forster is recognized as an excellent goalkeeper with a distinguished career, but he is not particularly known for his proficiency with his feet. Forster’s ball control can sometimes appear somewhat awkward, “a little bit like I did when I played for Chelsea,” which could present a challenge given Ange Postecoglou’s preferred tactical approach for Tottenham. Fulham experienced a four-goal defeat at home against Wolves last weekend; however, based on their performances observed this season, this outcome is expected to be an isolated incident. The Whites have managed to score in every game this season, with the sole exception of their opening-weekend loss at Old Trafford, indicating they will also pose a threat in this fixture. Consequently, Sutton believes this match will not be straightforward for Spurs, but if their attacking players replicate their performance against City, they are anticipated to emerge victorious once more. Sunny’s prediction: 2-1 Sunny states that Tottenham appears formidable, adding, “I don’t want to say they will win, but I think they will.” The complete predictions and an opportunity to contribute can be found here.
