Brighton v Man City predictions: Chris Sutton on Premier League game

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

For week 11 he takes on Mylee and Tate from CBBC football drama Jamie Johnson FC (JJFC), which is set in the world of an elite academy at fictional Premier League club Hawx United.

Sutton’s prediction: 1-2

Brighton ended up losing last week, but they absolutely played Liverpool off the park at Anfield for 45 minutes.

I’d not seen much of Seagulls midfielder Yasin Ayari beforehand but I was at the game for BBC Radio 5 Live, and what a great young player he looks. The same goes for Jack Hinshelwood too.

The way they played out from the back, with such bravery and confidence, was impressive and Liverpool had to dig very deep to recover from 1-0 down and beat them.

Manchester City are going to have to do the same to get back to winning ways. After they lost to Sporting on Tuesday, City midfielder Bernardo Silva said they are “in a dark place” at the moment, but they are champions for a reason and I am expecting a response.

They have got a point to prove, and that might help them find the energy they will need.

Mylee’s prediction: I am hoping for a City defeat here! It is going to be close, but I actually think they will win. 2-3

Tate’s prediction: There are going to be a lot of goals… and Brighton are going to win. City slipped up last week, and it might happen again. 4-3
