I got Liverpool wrong at the weekend because I thought they would lose at West Ham.
Instead of Mo Salah, it was a case of ‘No Salah’ after he was left out for their 2-0 win. I didn’t mind seeing that, because Salah is no different from any other player – if he is not performing, you drop him.
I was wrong about Sunderland too, but that won’t surprise anyone.
We are at the stage where I am thinking should I do Black Cats fans a favour by tipping them to lose again here, because we know what happens when I do that – they win.
I actually think they will give a good account of themselves at Anfield and it would not surprise me at all to see them going there and winning – I really mean that, too, because we’ve all seen how capable Regis le Bris’ side are.
I am still going to go with Liverpool though. I don’t think they can be as bad as they were in their previous two home games against Nottingham Forest and PSV Eindhoven.
Sutton’s prediction: 2-1
