Sutton’s predictions: Leicester v Nottingham Forest

[BBC]

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

For week nine, he takes on rapper Nemzzz, who supports Manchester United.

Sutton’s prediction: 0-1

Leicester City came back from the dead to beat Southampton last time out, so they will be full of confidence.

But I have a feeling Nottingham Forest will edge this. They don’t score a lot of goals, but they are very impressive at the back – they have conceded six goals in their first eight league games, and only leaders Liverpool have a better defensive record.

So I am going to go for another 1-0 Forest win, the same result as against Palace on Monday, which was the scoreline I predicted.

Forest may have an injury issue with Callum Hudson-Odoi and if he does miss this game it will be a blow, but the old ‘Wood-chopper’ – Chris Wood – is unstoppable for them at the moment, with three goals in his past four games.

Get him in your Fantasy team – that’s my advice.

Nemzzz’s prediction: 0-2

Leicester are at home but Forest are doing much better at the moment.
