Expert in football predictions for BBC Sport
Nottingham Forest keep winning but, even though Everton are on a run of three draws, they got them against Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City, in games where everyone expected them to be beaten – me. Understood.
Everton got these results by being resilient, but I thought Iliman Ndiaye’s equalizer against City was a superb strike. It was a goal of pure beauty, the way he took it, and it feels like they still pose a threat.
Forest also defended well – they had less than 30% possession in their 1-0 win over Tottenham, but still found a way to win.
Their centre-back pairing of Nikola Milenkovic and Murillo have been the best in the Premier League this season, and their right-back Ola Aina is also in phenomenal form.
Anthony Elanga, who scored his winner against Spurs, is also on a good scoring streak, and it is going to be difficult for Everton to stop them.
I think Sean Dyche’s team will still surprise a few people here, and I’m counting on getting them another draw.
Sutton’s prediction:1-1
