"I thought we mightiness hit them by 1 goal, but to get three, including 2 superb free-kicks, was conscionable exquisite," Yizzy told BBC Sport. "You could not person written it immoderate better.

"I sewage a spot greedy aft our 3rd extremity because I said that if we get four, we are decidedly successful nan semi-finals

Premier League predictions
Saturday, 12 April
Etihad Stadium, 12:30 BST
Crystal Palace are a really well-balanced squad who tin origin Manchester City each sorts of problems pinch their 3-4-3 formation, moreover though Marc Guehi and Eddie Nketiah are suspended aft being sent disconnected against Brighton past week.
The Eagles are successful amended shape than Pep Guardiola's broadside too, pinch 4 wins and a tie from their past 5 convention games - City person only won doubly successful nan aforesaid period.
I still cannot move distant from a City win, however. I still expect them to triumph these benignant of games astatine home, moreover if they are miles distant from being nan squad they were 12 months ago.
We saw much grounds of that past week, because Sunday's Manchester derby was astir apt nan dullest derby crippled I person ever watched.
You deliberation astir erstwhile Guardiola came over, and really he transformed nan game. For years, City were truthful watchable.
Now, if they were playing successful my backmost plot I would adjacent nan curtains - though that would beryllium a spot harsh connected Palace.
Sutton's prediction: 2-1
Yizzy's prediction: If I wasn't an Arsenal fan, Palace would beryllium my team. They are my section broadside and I ever want them to win, isolated from erstwhile they are playing Arsenal. I don't deliberation they will get thing here, though. City person been truthful up and down but I can't look past them winning astatine home. 3-1
If you ever want a crippled to get backmost connected track, conscionable play Leicester.
They person mislaid 8 successive convention games without scoring, and that tally is not going to extremity here.
Ruud van Nistelrooy was a dreadful assignment arsenic head but I don't blasted him aliases his predecessor, Steve Cooper for nan Foxes' atrocious play because location is simply a deeper underlying problem astatine nan club.
It didn't help, then, that nan players seemed to deliberation - and astir apt still do - that they are amended than they are.
The fans were expecting excessively overmuch from this play too, but I uncertainty that is nan lawsuit anymore, because their squad has been truthful feeble.
Brighton person taken only 1 constituent from their past 3 matches truthful they request a triumph to boost their hopes of finishing successful nan European places.
I person perfectly nary uncertainty they will get it - nan only mobility is really galore will they score.
Sutton's prediction: 2-0
Yizzy's prediction: I person to spell pinch Brighton present but I do deliberation Leicester person nan expertise to get a result, truthful this mightiness beryllium person than a batch of group think. They person to people again astatine immoderate point, too. 2-1
This is simply a reliable 1 to call. Nottingham Forest are looking to get backmost to winning ways aft losing to Aston Villa past week, but Everton are truthful awkward nether David Moyes.
The Toffees person drawn six of their past 8 games truthful that is nan evident telephone here, but I want to backmost Forest - if you trim maine successful half, and I americium reddish and white.
Sutton's prediction: 1-0
Yizzy's prediction: It has been an astonishing turnaround by Everton nether Moyes but Forest are perfectly flying. They person had an astonishing season, I don't deliberation anyone saw it coming. 2-0
St Mary's Stadium, 15:00 BST
With nan champion will successful nan world, Aston Villa are going to spell retired of nan Champions League. They do person players tin of scoring nan goals they request against Paris St-Germain successful nan 2nd limb of their quarter-final, but it will beryllium very difficult for them to move that necktie around.
If Villa unfastened up, you conscionable consciousness that mightiness suit PSG, who are my extremity to triumph nan title by nan way.
With that crippled coming up connected Tuesday it is conscionable arsenic good for Villa that things will beryllium a heck of a batch easier against Southampton.
Simon Rusk is successful complaint of Saints now Ivan Juric has been sacked, and they are not going to conscionable dishonesty down astatine home, but Villa could make a fewer changes and still get complete nan line.
Sutton's prediction: 1-2
Yizzy's prediction: The PSG necktie is decidedly going to beryllium Villa's attraction but Southampton are really struggling. 0-2
Emirates Stadium, 17:30 BST
I wanted Arsenal to effort to push Liverpool successful nan title title but leader Mikel Arteta intelligibly knew thing I didn't, resting his players against Everton past play and past demolishing Real Madrid nan measurement they did.
Arteta will make changes again here, earlier Wednesday's 2nd limb astatine nan Bernabeu, and nan truth it won't beryllium nan Gunners' strongest broadside makes this rather difficult to predict.
Brentford are very tin but I person a emotion nan Gunners will still person capable to win, moreover though they are prioritising Europe now.
Sutton's prediction: 2-1
Yizzy's prediction: Brentford are not a squad to underestimate, truthful because our attraction will beryllium connected Real, this is an absorbing one. They will springiness it a bully spell and though I still deliberation we will win, you could spot nan aforesaid scoreline going nan different measurement if we return our ft disconnected nan state excessively much. 2-1
Yizzy connected Arsenal's prospects: When you look astatine really overmuch Arteta has changed astatine nan nine arsenic good arsenic pinch nan squad since he was appointed astatine nan extremity of 2019, it is incredible.
I consciousness for illustration now is nan clip we are really seeing that activity paying off. We person arguably sewage 1 of nan strongest 1st XIs successful nan world, and person balanced retired each nan things that we person needed complete nan past 10-15 years.
We person nailed a accordant top-four finish, and I don't deliberation that is ever successful uncertainty nether Arteta immoderate more. We are fresh to spell and commencement winning immoderate stuff, hopefully starting pinch nan Champions League this season.
The only point we still request is simply a striker. I don't cognize who mightiness beryllium disposable but nan 3 names I've been reasoning astir are Alexander Isak astatine Newcastle, Viktor Gyokeres astatine Sporting and Lautaro Martinez astatine Inter Milan.
I've been a instrumentality of Martinez for a while. I've not followed Gyokeres arsenic overmuch but he is truthful consistent, and it feels for illustration he is destined to play for a monolithic club.
Sunday, 13 April
Stamford Bridge, 14:00 BST
Ipswich hit Chelsea astatine Portman Road earlier successful nan play truthful you cannot norm retired them doing nan double complete Chelsea by winning astatine Stamford Bridge too.
Actually, I deliberation you can. I'd emotion to backmost Ipswich to cheer up my daughter's teacher, Mr Fields, but I americium done pinch predicting they will win. I americium going to person to driblet her disconnected extracurricular nan schoolhouse gates and fto her locomotion in, because I can't consequence going into nan car parkland and seeing his sad look aft different Tractor Boys defeat.
As we saw past week against Brentford, Chelsea are acold from convincing successful onslaught and tin beryllium flimsy defensively.
Cole Palmer is retired of shape too, but Chelsea should still person a big of chances here. If they return them, they will triumph comfortably.
Sutton's prediction: 3-0
Yizzy's prediction: I've really liked watching Ipswich this season. It looks for illustration they were down, but they ever put up a decent fight. 1-1
West Ham person been mediocre recently, and Bournemouth should person beaten them past week.
The Hammers person not really improved since Graham Potter was appointed successful January, but that is not connected him.
His predecessor Julen Lopetegui was not a bully fit, and they person not recruited good either. Their play has been arsenic dull arsenic a Manchester derby and it is not going to get immoderate amended now.
So, this is simply a bully crippled for Liverpool to find immoderate shape again and nan aforesaid tin beryllium said for their pursuing match, a travel to Leicester, too.
Even though Liverpool are not playing well, they will still person nan desire and strength astatine Anfield that they request to spot disconnected nan Hammers without excessively overmuch trouble. Mohamed Salah's caller statement will evidently assistance nan fans too.
Sutton's prediction: 3-1
Yizzy's prediction: Big up to Mo, he has been 1 of nan champion players successful nan world for a while now. Liverpool person been very annoying because I thought this was nan play we won nan Premier League but successful emblematic Arsenal manner a fewer injuries and referee decisions person costs us, and location is this 11-point spread erstwhile we should beryllium a batch person than that.
Liverpool are going to triumph nan convention now, and I consciousness for illustration this is going to beryllium a very comfortable day for them. Salah to observe his caller statement pinch a extremity and an assist. 3-0
Tottenham leader Ange Postecoglou has sewage his large players backmost from wounded but he will person his oculus connected nan Europa League and getting past Eintracht Frankfurt, truthful will he remainder group here?
I person been really impressed pinch Wolves nether Vitor Pereira, particularly defensively.
When Gary O'Neil was sacked successful December, they had shipped 40 goals successful their first 16 convention games but, nether Pereira, they person only conceded different 19 successful 15 matches.
Wolves person won their past 3 games to move 12 points clear of nan relegation area and I americium expecting them to make it 4 wins successful a statement here, pinch different cleanable sheet.
Sutton's prediction: 2-0
Yizzy's prediction: I americium not conscionable saying this because it is Tottenham but I deliberation Wolves will win. They don't people a batch of goals but erstwhile they get up I've seen them unopen retired a batch of teams.
Also, Matheus Cunha is backmost from his prohibition and he is an absolute baller. I've watched him for Brazil and if he was successful a squad that didn't trust connected truthful overmuch individual talent from him arsenic Wolves do, he would radiance moreover more. I wouldn't return him astatine Arsenal though, because I don't deliberation he's nan correct subordinate we need. 2-0
St James' Park, 16:30 BST
It does consciousness for illustration Ruben Amorim is steadying nan vessel astatine Manchester United but location is thing overmuch for them to get excited astir successful nan Premier League and it could beryllium a beautiful dull extremity to their home campaign, particularly because they are uncovering it difficult to people goals.
Like Tottenham, United's play is hanging connected nan Europa League now, but their Premier League results still matter for Amorim because he needs to put immoderate in installments into nan slope going into adjacent season.
I conscionable can't spot past a Newcastle triumph here, though. They are 1 of nan teams successful this title for nan Champions League places and are successful awesome form. Now we cognize nan apical 5 are guaranteed to get in, I americium assured they will make it.
It conscionable shows nan worth of winning nan Carabao Cup because it seems for illustration it has fixed them a large limb up.
They will person enjoyed themselves celebrating for a fewer days but now they are focused connected making it into nan Champions League, which is truthful important because of nan Premier League's profit and sustainability rules.
If they make it, it gives them nan opportunity to build.
Sutton's prediction: 2-0
Yizzy's prediction: Manchester United will person their minds connected nan 2nd limb of their necktie pinch Lyon. It ever feels for illustration they person an rumor defensively and Newcastle will beryllium capable to get astatine them. I americium going pinch Isak to driblet a masterclass, helped by Andre Onana's goalkeeping. 2-1
Monday, 14 April
Vitality Stadium, 20:00 BST
I watched Bournemouth against West Ham past week and they deserved to hit them, truthful I don't deliberation their shape is arsenic bad arsenic their tally of 2 points from their past six games suggests.
Fulham, meanwhile, took nan scalp of mighty Liverpool to underline really tin they are - but they look to deficiency nan consistency they will request to really push for nan Champions League places from here.
Let's look it, though, I find some of these teams very difficult to predict.
Whichever measurement I spell pinch this one, nan other will hap - truthful I americium going to hedge my bets and spell for a draw.
I was going to spell for it to decorativeness 2-2 because some teams person sewage a batch astir them going forward, but my daughter, Sophia, says it will beryllium 1-1. If I suffer this week because of this game, past it is her fault.
Sutton's prediction: 1-1
Yizzy's prediction: Fulham person done really good each play and though we hit them past week, they gave america immoderate problems erstwhile we drew pinch them successful December. They are connected a spot of a complaint up nan array and it looks for illustration location is awesome power successful their dressing room from nan pictures I've seen. After beating Liverpool past week I tin spot them winning this 1 too. 0-1
How did Sutton do past week?
Week 31 was not decided until Newcastle's triumph complete Leicester.
Going into Monday's match, Chris was connected 60 points aft getting 3 correct results, including 1 nonstop score, from nan first 9 games of nan weekend
Using nan astir celebrated scoreline from your predictions for each game, nan BBC readers were level connected 60 points, again pinch 3 correct results and 1 nonstop score.
Chris's guest, singer-songwriter Mychelle, was up astatine that shape - she had besides managed 3 correct results but pinch 2 nonstop scores, giving her 90 points.
Mychelle wrongly went for a daze Foxes triumph but Chris and nan BBC readers still needed an nonstop people to snatch a shared victory. They some went for a 2-0 Newcastle success, but nan Magpies scored 3 goals to guarantee Mychelle still triumphed.
We whitethorn not person overmuch of a title title successful nan Premier League but erstwhile it comes to predictions, nan title for glory is going to nan ligament - nan guests are now level pinch Chris pinch 9 outright wins and 4 tied victories, though he has much points overall.
