Weekend preview and predictions

Published by inked4life under Uncategorized Edit This

Fulham v Man City
City come to Craven Cottage to face a Fulham side unbeaten in it’s last 4 games. City have struggled with consistency all season and will be up against it here….2-1 Fulham
Arsenal v Wigan
Lets flip a coin and see which Arsenal side will play this week. The high flying team that has knocked off Chelsea and Man Utd in recent weeks or the sluggish squad that loses to the likes of Stoke. Wigan are unbeaten in 5 and will be a stern test……1-0 Arsenal
Blackburn v Liverpool
The home side have lost their last 4 games and look to struggle again against Liverpool who will have to do without the services of Fernando Torres who will be out till ‘09…….2-0 Liverpool
Bolton v Chelsea
This has the makings of a cracker with Bolton, the team who are probably showing the best form in the league at the moment hosting Chelsea. I expect lots of goals here and a tight one….3-2 Chelsea.
Hull v Middlesbrough
A battle of 2 teams heading in the wrong direction at the moment, but I’ll give the nod to Hull simply because they have the home field advantage….2-1 Hull.
Newcastle v Stoke
The home side are coming off 3 straight tied games and seem to be lacking a little bit of that killer instinct. Stoke, on the other hand, seem to be growing in confidence and are picking up some scalps along the way. Another tie here I believe….2-2
Man Utd v Sunderland
Utd at home against a side in total disarray with the departure of boss Roy Keane during the week. Seems like a slam dunk for the Red Devils….4-1 Utd.
West Brom v Portsmouth
Poor West Brom seem unable to do anything right at the moment and they are going against a Pompey side that seem to have found their scoring touch and who have gone unbeaten in their last 4….3-1 Portsmouth
Everton v Aston Villa
These two teams seem to cut from very similar cloth and will more than likely be in the running for a spot in Europe coming down the stretch. I think they will cancel each other out here….1-1.
West Ham v Tottenham
The Monday game the London derby between 2 old rivals. Spurs have cooled off in recent weeks and the hammers are struggling to find consistency…..2-1 Tottenham
