Week 21 (Part 2) Preview

This weekends matches

29/12/07

Birmingham v Fulham
Birmingham's mini revival to continue against managerless Fulham
Prediction: 2-1

Chelsea v Newcastle
Despite lack of players Chelsea should be good enough to beat under performing Newcastle.
Prediction: 1-0

Everton v Arsenal
Impressive of late Everton shouldn't roll over at home, but I feel Arsenal's hit on the break away form should get them a point.
Prediction: 1-1

Portsmouth v Middlesbrough
Portsmouth have gone slightly off the boil, but should be able to beat Boro.
Prediction: 1-0

Sunderland v Bolton
Bolton are showing some form lately, but with Sunderland getting dragged into the bottom 3 Keane should be able to motivate them enough to avoid defeat.
Prediction: 1-1

Tottenham v Reading
Reading are looking good recently, and Spurs are just unpredictable, draw.
Prediction: 2-2

West Ham v Manchester United
To much to hope for that the Hammers can carry on from last season when they had the hoodoo over United, should be able to raise their home form to sneak a draw hopefully.
Prediction: 1-1

Wigan v Aston Villa
Villa are also unpredictable, on their day as good as anyone, but now and again awful. Wigan's recent improvement will hopefully end soon to put Bruce back in the Championship where he belongs.
Prediction: 0-1

30/12/07

Derby v Blackburn
Derby looking better in the last 2 games, but still out of their depth in this division. Blackburn should return to winning ways here.
Prediction: 1-3

Manchester City v Liverpool
City's tight defence (except Thursday), should be able to hold Liverpool unless Torres and Gerrard are at their best.
Prediction: 0-0
