Sutton's predictions v Emma-Jean Thackray

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

This week, he takes on musician Emma-Jean Thackray, who is a Leeds fan.

Sutton's prediction: 2-1

Ange Postecoglou sounded a bit deflated after Tottenham's defeat at Nottingham Forest. While I still think he has brought so much to the Premier League, you cannot deny he needs a positive result or two.

It definitely does not help that he is so short of fit centre-backs at the moment and, overall, says this is the worst injury crisis he has ever faced as a manager.

Ange is just going to have to get on with it, but this game looks a lot tougher than it might have done a couple of weeks ago.

Wolves have won their first two matches under new manager Vitor Pereira and, after shipping a load of goals under Gary O'Neil, they kept two clean sheets too.

I am still backing Spurs here though, despite their defensive issues. They did not score against Forest but had some decent chances and, at home, I think they will find a way to win.

Emma-Jean's prediction: 3-1

Tottenham are very unpredictable but, when they play well, they really shine.
