Sutton's predictions: Southampton v Ipswich
- Published
Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League matches this season, against a variety of guests.
For week five, he takes on singer-songwriter and West Ham fan James Smith whose debut album, Common People, is out now.
Southampton host Ipswich on Saturday at 15:00 BST.
Sutton's prediction: 1-1
These are two more teams who are both waiting for their first Premier League victory of the season, although at least Southampton have had something to celebrate after beating Everton on penalties in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday.
Ipswich have picked up a couple of points already, though, including an excellent draw at Brighton last time out. To go there and nullify the Seagulls attack is no mean feat, and they also had a big chance to score when Liam Delap crashed a shot against the post.
This was a Championship fixture last season, and Ipswich did the double over Saints, including at Portman Road in April when they nicked it 3-2 with a late winner after Southampton had played really well and battered them.
This time, it smells like a draw to me. I can't choose between either team, even though I know how much they would both give for all three points.
James's prediction: 1-2
I am 'Team Ipswich' this year, but only because of Ed Sheeran! 1-2
