Nottingham native Chris Sutton is predicting Newcastle United to edge Nottingham Forest on their return to the Premier League this weekend.
The Reds face a tough return to the top-flight on Saturday afternoon at St James' Park up against a Newcastle United side that ended last season as one of the form teams in the Premier League after comfortably avoiding relegation. Steve Cooper's side are also being backed to achieve that goal by Sutton at the end of this coming campaign.
That is largely down to their work in the transfer market to date, with the strengthening in midfield through to arrivals of Jesse Lingard and Orel Mangala highlighted as good bits of business. It is not seen as enough to secure a positive result on their travels from the off, though.
