  • Sutton’s predictions: Southampton v West Ham

    Sutton’s predictions: Southampton v West Ham


    Chris Sutton and Eats Everything

    [BBC]

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

    This week, he takes on Eats Everything, aka DJ and producer Daniel Pearce.

    Sutton’s prediction: 1-1

    There has not been much Christmas cheer for Southampton but they did at least keep a clean sheet against Fulham and new manager Ivan Juric would probably be happy with another bore draw in his first game in charge.

    West Ham also picked up a point over the weekend, against Brighton, but they really got away with one there – I was so unlucky with my prediction of a Seagulls win, because they absolutely battered them.

    The Hammers have got some really quality players, like Jarrod Bowen, and I keep thinking they are eventually going to get going and find some consistency, but it has not happened yet.

    I’m still not convinced by West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui, and I don’t really know what to expect from Juric, so the safest prediction here is probably another 1-1 draw – which would be West Ham’s third in a row, all against south coast clubs.

    Eats Everything’s prediction: 1-1

    Southampton will be hoping for a new manager bounce, but West Ham have been decent in their past couple of games – they got battered by Bournemouth but showed they were resilient, and it was similar against Brighton. I am going to go for them getting another draw here.

    The midfield three is completed by Tomáš Souček, who has scored three of his four Premier League goals this season on the road – at Crystal Palace, Brentford and Newcastle United.

    The forward line will again be led by Germany international Niclas Füllkrug, who starts for the second time in the Premier League following his return from injury at start of December.

    Captain Jarrod Bowen and Mohammed Kudus will fill the wide attacking berths, with the latter having scored West Ham’s goal against Brighton last Saturday afternoon.

    Bowen scored his first goal on his first start for the Hammers against the Saints at London Stadium back in February 2020 – the Irons’ final home game with a capacity crowd before the COVID pandemic.

    Álvarez is on the substitutes’ bench, as are goalkeeper Alphonse Areola, defenders Vladimír Coufal, Aaron Cresswell and Jean-Clair Todibo, midfielders Andy Irving and Luis Guilherme, winger Crysencio Summerville and forward Danny Ings.

    For Southampton, former Hammer and lifelong West Ham fan Flynn Downes starts, as does Nigerian forward Paul Onuachu, who started both legs for Genk against the Irons in the UEFA Europa League group stage in the autumn of 2021.
