Chelsea v Sheff Utd: Sutton's predictions
- Published
Chris Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League matches again this season, against a variety of guests.
For this weekend's games, he takes on darts star 'Hollywood' Chris Dobey, who supports Newcastle.
Sutton's prediction: 2-0
After losing to Liverpool in Chris Wilder's first game back in charge, Sheffield United got their 'new manager bounce' last week when they beat Brentford - now can they follow that up?
The Blades have got the worst away record in the top flight this season, with only one point from seven games, so you would think not - but then again they are up against a Chelsea side, who I am wrong about most weeks.
Blues boss Mauricio Pochettino came out and said he wanted some new players after they lost to Everton last week - which is pretty amazing when you consider Chelsea's spending spree last summer - and it does not appear things are going to settle down at Stamford Bridge anytime soon.
I am still going to go with them to win, because they are at home to the bottom side in the Premier League who have struggled on the road, but you can probably tell I am not exactly confident that is what will happen.
Dobey's prediction: 3-1
You never know what Chelsea are going to do at the moment. I am going to back them, though, because they have lost their past two games and they need to pull something out of the bag here.
