CELTIC legend Chris Sutton is never one to shy away from sharing his opinion or making a prediction.
With that being said, his latest forecast has caused plenty of surprise!
Has Sutton discovered a new found love for Love Island? Credit: The Sun
Sutton says Ekin-Su and Davide are “a great couple” Credit: ITV The Scottish Premiership is back this weekend, but it’s LOVE ISLAND that the Hoops hero has been turning his prediction skills to.
Sutton caused a stir on social media last night when, out of nowhere, he posted: “Davide and Ekin Su are a great couple.”
They are the current favourites to be crowned the winners of the current series of the ITV2 summer smash hit.
To say it would be a surprise that Sutton watches Love Island would be a bit of an understatement – especially considering his previous comments on the show.
Back in 2017, he branded it a ‘load of rubbish.’
He told The Sportsman: “I’ve got to say. All my boys watch it, right.
“I wham them for it – I mean come on, there are better things than Love Island.
“What a load of rubbish!”

So after five years, have his sons finally converted their dad into a big Love Island fan?
Maybe not, but it appears he’s seen enough to make his call on who will be winning the £50,000 prize on offer at the end of the series!
A response to his tweet asked Sutton to make his predictions – and the Parkhead favourite duly obliged!
He said: “1. Davide Ekin Su, 2. Luca Gemma, 3. Andrew Tasha.
“Don’t say I didn’t tell you!”
Celtic fans were clearly surprised by their hero’s venture into Love Island commentary!
One said: “You’re better than that Chris.”
Another asked: “Someone taken your phone Chris?”
A third said: “I didn’t expect this tweet.”
A fourth Hoops fan asked: “You been hacked?”
Plenty of supporters were thrilled by the content – some were even keen for Sutton to provide MORE Love Island insight!
One said: “You’ve made my night, big yin!”
While another quipped: “The modern day Sutton and Larsson.”
Sutton’s attention will be back on the football no doubt as the weekend approaches!
Rangers kick-off their Premiership campaign away at Livingston on Saturday.
It’s Celtic’s turn to get off and running the following day, when they host Aberdeen in Glasgow.
