Chris Sutton is set to take on musician and Manchester City supporter Johnny Marr in a set of predictions for this weekend’s Premier League fixtures, with readers and an artificial intelligence system also involved in the challenge.
Sutton, a football expert, will provide his forecasts for the weekend’s matches as he competes with Marr, who is described as a legendary guitarist and a City fan. The feature will compare the predictions made by the two participants with those submitted by readers and an AI system.
The material supplied does not include the individual fixtures, predicted results or details of how the competing forecasts will be assessed. It therefore remains unclear which matches will form part of the contest and whether any participant will ultimately outperform the others.
The predictions are focused on the upcoming Premier League programme, with the results expected to provide a comparison between expert football opinion, supporter judgement, reader selections and artificial intelligence.
