Watford
v Sheffield Utd |
| |
Watford
have had the luxury of a weekend off which could serve them
well in the busy December period. Watford may be just above
Charlton at the foot of the table but this is a huge game against
their promotion rivals. If they win, they will go above United
although they won't quite make it out of the drop zone. Ashley
Young looks to be the most promising player at Vicarage Road
in recent games and could prove a thorn in the Blades' side.
United lost out at West Ham in an ill-tempered clash and Warnock
has even gone so far as announcing his retirement date after
having had only 4 weeks off since 1979. Away from Bramall Lane,
United have lost 5 of 7 games but only conceded 9 goals, so
Watford are likely to find the going tough but they could well
prevail. |

Aston
Villa v Man City |
| |
Villa
remain undefeated at home and have only conceded 4 goals at
Villa park, but they have had 8 penalties this season and have
at last found a reliable taker in Gareth Barry. The captain
has not only been scoring goals but some of the balls he's been
putting into the box lately have been tremendous. The fact that
Villa didn't go on to beat Boro was largely their own doing
after wasting some glorious chances. Sutton could return against
City, a side that have earned just a solitary point on the road
but there were signs of improvement at Anfield where they only
lost by a single goal. Micah Richards's versatility has been
the biggest positive for Pearce; he started off as a centre
half but mainly played as right back this season, before playing
in midfield last weekend. City have only scored 3 but conceded
15 away from Eastlands; you'd be brave to bet against the Villa. |

Fulham
v Arsenal |
| |
Both
these sides are rocking a little bit at the moment with Fulham
succumbing to unfamiliar erratic home form and Arsenal losing
2 away games on the bounce. Fulham lost out to Reading after
Pearce was dismissed by the letter of the law; it was a harsh
decision on Fulham and after rejigging the team, they failed
to pull back a Reading side happy to hold out for a narrow win.
Losing Queudrue and Bocanegra to injury leaves Coleman scraping
the barrel of his already small squad; they've now lost 3 from
7 games at the Cottage which is almost as many as they lost
in the whole of last season. Meanwhile, Arsenal were shot down
at the Reebok by old boy Anelka and lacked direction without
more experienced players like Henry. Wenger has virtually conceded
that his side are now out of the title race but he will certainly
have an eye on a Champions League place and his young guns need
to pull a result out of the bag; losing at Fulham will be a
serious kick in the teeth especially given the home side's recent
form and their lack of squad depth. Arsenal to nick a vital
3 points. |

Bolton
v Chelsea |
| |
Can
Bolton take some confidence from the Arsenal result and give
Chelsea a spanking too? Unlikely! Chelsea will field a more
experienced side than Arsenal and will be better organised to
handle the physical problems that Bolton present, whilst the
Reebok has always been a bogey ground for Arsenal. It has taken
Anelka a number of games to adjust to the Bolton style but maybe
his recent brace can kickstart his season. Bolton are flying
high in 3rd but Chelsea are 8 points clear of them. Chelsea
may have lost twice on the road but the draw at Old Trafford
will give them the belief that they can catch United. The Blues
next few games are a bit tougher than United's and Mourinho
will want maximum points to maintain the pressure on the Premiership
leaders. Tough call but Chelsea may have the edge. |

Liverpool
v Portsmouth |
| |
Liverpool's
home record speaks for itself with only 2 points dropped in
7 games and only 3 goals conceded. The Reds won't have been
helped by additional injuries to Gonzalez and Alonso but it
has meant that Gerrard resumes his central position, especially
since Sissoko is also still absent. Liverpool may have looked
lacklustre at times against City but Gerrard's first Premiership
goal of the season will have given the whole club a lift. Their
opponents, Portsmouth, appear to be reverting to typical away
form after a good start to the season; Harry needs to put a
stop to 4 successive defeats on the road but they don't come
much more difficult than travelling to Anfield and losing Stefanovic
and Taylor won't have helped. Liverpool to lose (i.e. Pompey
to win) seems to be far too big a step away from the form. |

Man
Utd v Everton |
| |
Everton
travel to Old Trafford on the back of a poor display (with the
exception of McFadden) at the Valley. Had Nuno Valente not given
the ball away carelessly and Yobo not been doing up his boot,
Charlton may well have not equalised but this doesn't disguise
Everton's problems without Tim Cahill and Andy Johnson; Beattie
and Arteta are the only other Everton players to score this
season. The Toffees have only won once on the road and face
a United side that have only dropped points at home to Arsenal
and Chelsea. United showed the more flair against an efficient
Chelsea on Sunday but still failed to come out on top; the point
to note from this encounter though was that United are not just
going to roll over for Chelsea. United have only conceded 3
goals at home and Everton are unlikely to get a sniff. |
