Cape Town – Leaders Liverpool will have relatively little trouble disposing of Brighton in their Premiership trip to the south coast on Saturday.
That is the feeling of the Sport24 gurus, all of whom fancy a Reds triumph … and possibly taking a cue from last season’s fixture where the ‘Pool visit saw them romp to a 5-1 thrashing of Chris Hughton’s charges.
But the pundits are notably more split when it comes to the tasty London encounter between Tottenham and resurgent Manchester United on Sunday, with all results offered.
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).
Have a go yourself: three points are awarded to the forecasters for an entirely correct score-line, and one for right result.
