Rayan Cherki is a big talent, and with such quick feet. Phil Foden almost scored against Forest on Saturday, and when Haaland draws a blank, like he did in that game, you know a goal is not far away.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Still, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/sport\/football\/teams\/sunderland\" class=\"ssrcss-k8mrr8-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\">Sunderland<\/a> have the aggression that saw them rattle <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/sport\/football\/teams\/arsenal\" class=\"ssrcss-k8mrr8-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\">Arsenal<\/a> and they are so well organised defensively too.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">That&#8217;s why they still haven&#8217;t lost at home this season, and I feel bad for writing them off so often, but I am sorry to say I am going to do it again.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">I feel like City have found their flow so I can&#8217;t back against them, but I am expecting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/sport\/football\/teams\/sunderland\" class=\"ssrcss-k8mrr8-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\">Sunderland<\/a> to put up one heck of a fight.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\"><b class=\"ssrcss-1xjjfut-BoldText e5tfeyi3\">Sutton&#8217;s prediction:<\/b> 1-3<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\"><b class=\"ssrcss-1xjjfut-BoldText e5tfeyi3\">Tom&#8217;s prediction: <\/b>My heart is telling me one thing, and my head is telling me another!<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">From my heart, this is the sort of game we just win. I don&#8217;t know if we will, but even just the fact we are at home to City on New Year&#8217;s Day again really gives me that feeling &#8211; I&#8217;ve got very good memories of Ji Dong-won getting our winner <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/sport\/football\/16328586\" class=\"ssrcss-k8mrr8-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\">against them on 1 January 2012.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">With my head, though, it is going to be tough. We had chances at the Etihad a few weeks ago but, being realistic, I think we need a full-strength side to get anything from City and we don&#8217;t have that at the moment because we have lost players to the Africa Cup of Nations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">We definitely won&#8217;t have enough to win the game, but I am never going to say we will get beaten &#8211; I can&#8217;t do that. So, with my fingers crossed, I am going to say we will get our noses ahead but then City will pile on the pressure and I don&#8217;t see us absorbing it and holding out. 1-1<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\"><b class=\"ssrcss-1xjjfut-BoldText e5tfeyi3\">AI&#8217;s prediction:<\/b> 0-3<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>#Premier #League #predictions #Chris #Sutton #singersongwriter #Tom #Smith<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>City did not have it all their&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7802,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[242],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7801"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7801"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7801\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/7802"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7801"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7801"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7801"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
