For this week's midweek predictions, Chris Sutton takes on CBeebies presenter Rhys Stephenson.

It has been surprising to see Manchester City conceding so many goals recently - they have shipped 10 in their past four games - and I do think Villa will score here, but I'd still back Pep Guardiola's side to score more.

It's a blow for City to be without suspended duo Rodri and Jack Grealish, but I am certainly not going to start doubting them.

They might be playing with a bit of anger after feeling wronged by the decision not to let them play an advantage right at the end of Sunday's draw with Tottenham, even if I do think too much was made out of that incident.

The referee was wrong to stop play, but I think the Spurs defence would have caught Grealish anyway.

Sutton's prediction:1-2

Villa have been awesome at home and I think they will really push City here.

Rhys' prediction: 2-2

Chelsea striker Cole Palmer was brought up less than 10 miles from Old Trafford in Wythenshawe.

Tonight Palmer plays here for the first time.

His previous outing against Manchester United was for Manchester City in the 6-3 win at the Etihad Stadium last season.

Palmer was a late substitute on that occasion. Tonight he starts as Chelsea's £40m summer signing.

His last goal was the stoppage time penalty that earned Chelsea a 4-4 draw against Manchester City in November.

More bad news for Crystal Palace as full-back Tyrick Mitchell very slowly limps off inside the opening 30 minutes, with Nathaniel Clyne replacing him.

A mix-up in the Sheffield United box as keeper Wes Foderingham spills a Trent Alexander-Arnold corner.

But his defenders rescue him, hacking the ball clear.

Jordan Ayew nearly grabs an instant equaliser, with Neto doing well to keep out the strike. Excellent defending then from Illia Zabarnyi, throwing himself in front of the ball to block Odsonne Edouard's goalbound rebound attempt.

The closest we've come at Craven Cottage!

Fulham's Andreas Pereira wins and takes a free-kick on the edge of the box, curling it to the keeper's corner. His shot beats the wall, it beats Forest stopper Odysseas Vlachodimos, and ends up clattering into the post.

Pereira has his head in his hands. Inches away.

Jan Paul van Hecke is booked.

With one of their first attacks, Brentford win a penalty. Captain Vitaly Janelt drifts through the middle and is pulled down by a stumbling Jan Paul van Hecke as he enters the box.

I think Chris Wilder will be really happy. They've had a lot of good chances. They've defended their box well. Everything they've had thrown at them so far, they've dealt with well.

You feel like Liverpool are really building up some steam now. They've had almost 80% of possession.

Ibrahima Konate has their latest chance, meeting a Trent Alexander-Arnold corner, but his header is easily saved by Wes Foderingham.

Manchester United are unbeaten in 11 league games against Chelsea since losing 1-0 at Stamford Bridge in November 2017 (W4, D7).

The Blues' last Premier League win at Old Trafford was 1-0 in May 2013. They have drawn six and lost four since.

There have been 26 Premier League draws between these sides, the highest total of any fixture in the competition's history.

Brighton's Simon Adingra half-volleys high and wide from Billy Gilmour's corner.

It started well, but it's gone a bit flat at Selhurst Park. Michael Olise stands over a free-kick 35 yards out, but the ball to the far post is far too close to the goalkeeper and Neto easily gathers.

Paul: I love Konate but he does get drawn into some bad positions by fast players far too much for my liking.

Mark Flekken is OK to continue after being treated.

Better from Fulham who ship the ball in to Raul Jimenez in the left channel. He stands up his defender, knocks the ball past him and fires a shot straight at Forest keeper Odysseas Vlachodimos.

Brentford keeper Mark Flekken is getting treatment, it seems to be his ankle or that area anyway.
