Sutton, along with three quarters of you, backed Liverpool to beat Manchester United at Old Trafford last week, only for Erik ten Hag's side to get their first win of the season.
"I was so sure about that, I actually thought I had gone easy on them," said Sutton. "United were really excellent. Their issue is can they back it up?
"It has been a strange start to the season, some teams have been so inconsistent."
Sutton is making predictions for every top-flight game this season against a variety of guests.
For this weekend's fixtures, he is up against Ross MacDonald, bassist with indie-rock band The 1975.
"It's an intense time to be doing predictions - it's the most unpredictable Premier League for a long while," said Ross.
"But I saw Chris was beaten last week so hopefully we can do the same this week!"Ross is a Macclesfield FC fan and has been watching his local club since his dad got him a season ticket when he was aged about 11.
He says he is enjoying seeing the club - which was formed in 2020 after Macclesfield Town was wound-up - "doing some jobs" on the Northern Premier League West after starting the season with two wins from two.
"It's been amazing to see the club thriving again," he says.
"Obviously we were distraught when it went under and there wasn't necessarily an obvious way back when it first happened. It was like losing a family member.
"But the guys who have taken over have done amazing things and made it feel like a community club, retaining the character and personality of the town.
"There are a lot of big clubs in the north-west of England - including Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool and Everton - and smaller clubs can go under the radar, especially if they have bad owners.
"Thankfully we didn't disappear forever and it seems like we have a decent plan in place to solidify our history and have a bright future."
Ross is a keen footballer himself and is even managing to squeeze in a game on Saturday - between The 1975's festival headline gigs at Leeds on Friday and Reading on Sunday.
"I'm playing with Jack Saunders [BBC Radio 1 DJ], George (The 1975 drummer), Josh from You Me At Six and a couple of the boys from Circa Waves. We've got a proper indie football team going," he says.
"It is nine-a-side and there is normally a few of us from bands. We're keeping it music!"
But will his predictions hit the right note?
The 1975 headline the Reading and Leeds festivals this weekend. Their new album, Being Funny in a Foreign Language, is out in October
