A tight affair at Wembley will see Chelsea edge Liverpool, Manchester United and Manchester City will both ease to wins, while this week’s Premier League Predictions fears the worst for Leeds again at Elland Road.
Each week our writers take on a different band or artist by making their predictions, while you can join in the fun using the story comment facility (below) or Your Say forum.
The latest artist to try their luck is Ethan from the band Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard. You can check out their sounds right here – and check out the cameo from a Harry Potter actor.
But can Ethan – a huge Tottenham fan – celebrate by getting one over our man, Marshy?
Last time out north London’s rising talent Surya Sen was in the hotseat. Amazingly, he nailed Spurs’ shock result at the Etihad!

TEAMtalk: How did you come to support your club and what are your favourite memories from your time as a fan?
Ethan: My Dad grew up a Spurs fan when living in London and I fell in love with the club and White Hart Lane as a child going to watch them from the age of six. My favourite memory has to be when I managed to call over [Heurelho] Gomes and get him to sign my own goalkeeper gloves!
TEAMtalk: Who have been your favourite five players for your club? (Historically or currently)
Ethan: My fave route player EVER has to be Aaron Lennon. I always wanted to play like him. Then, Ledley King, Luka Modric, Dele Ali (before he went ****), Sonny.
‘In Conte we trust’
TEAMtalk: What are your thoughts about the current side and your hopes for the season?
Ethan: I have high hopes for the current team of players we have. On paper and individually they are all great players. I’m hoping Conte can lift the curse held over this team and actually succeed in something this season.
TEAMtalk: Have you got a soft spot for another team and why?
Ethan: Aston Villa. I remember watching Villa, Spurs away. We had drinks in a Villa pub before and there fans were actually pretty welcoming and friendly.
TEAMtalk: What’s going on with the band at the moment?
Ethan: Debut Album is out Friday February 25, baby. SXSW in three weeks, baby. UK headline tour in April, BABY!
