Tipsters: Another Chelsea wobble!

Cape Town – Manchester City to press on relentlessly in the English Premiership … despite the seemingly tricky task of a trip to Chelsea on Saturday.

That is the general view of the Sport24 forecasters, five of whom see the champions winning against the currently erratic Londoners, with the other two preferring “honours even”.

City won both encounters by 1-0 margins, remember, last season.

Compiled by Rob Houwing (Newcastle-partial), the other Premiership prediction gurus are Garrin Lambley (Everton, and defending champion), Lloyd Burnard, Tashreeq Vardien, Baden Gillion and Lynn Butler (all Man Utd) plus Craig Taylor (Liverpool).

Three points are awarded to the tipsters for an entirely correct score-line, and one for right result.
