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

For week 20, he takes on The Zutons frontman Dave McCabe, who supports Liverpool.

Sutton's prediction: 0-1

This is the Nuno Espirito Santo derby, with Nuno going back to Wolves where he did such a brilliant job between 2017 and 2021.

Nuno is doing even better with Nottingham Forest at the moment, but Wolves have hit a bit of form under new boss Vitor Pereira as well.

I saw Pereira do a little jig after his side got a late point at Tottenham. He seems a real character and his team are showing plenty of spirit too, but I am not sure they will carry the same threat now Matheus Cunha is suspended.

I was wrong when I said Forest would draw at Everton last time out so this time I am going to back them to take all three points.

As I've mentioned before, Forest were my boyhood club so it is great to see them doing so well.

It is like the late 1970s again, with them and Liverpool fighting it out at the top of the table. After this game, their next league match sees them play each other, with Forest looking to do the double after winning at Anfield in September.

Being honest, I don't see Forest staying at the top end of the table for too much longer but most of my predictions have been so bad this season so that is probably good news for them.

McCabe's prediction: 1-2

Forest are playing well and they should win this one too.
