Charlton
v Blackburn |
| |
Charlton
are still rooted to the bottom of the Premiership and with Christmas
just around the corner, must be aware that every club bottom
at Christmas has been relegated with the exception of West Brom.
There are signs that Charlton can get out of their current predicament
with 5 points from their last 3 home games, and if Andy (Puskas)
Reid can keep scoring then who knows. Blackburn visit the Valley
after a flattering win over a poor Fulham side, but they have
only a single victory on the road. The partnership of Nonda
and McCarthy is already working well but away from Ewood Park,
Rovers have only scored 3 goals. Charlton will have been gutted
by the way they let Sheffield Utd back into the game at Bramall
Lane, but they can make amends by taking 3 points at home to
Blackburn. |

Tottenham
v Middlesbrough |
| |
Seven
games at White Hart Lane and Spurs have lost just the once,
dropping 4 points in all. They may have felt hard done by against
Arsenal last weekend but in truth they looked toothless, and
North London derbies in the past have been far more passionate
encounters. Jol will be giving his players a kick in the proverbials
and had Mido been fit, Berbatov could well be sitting on the
bench. The Bulgarian has been performing well in Spurs' European
fixtures but looks to be struggling with the more physical side
of the Premiership. Boro's away record has been disappointing
with no victory yet but their draw at Villa Park may have given
them a lift after 3 away losses. Unfortunately, a harsh defeat
at home to United and a cheating Ronaldo leaves them in 15th
place and only 3 points above the drop zone. Spurs have to make
the most of their home games and will have to work hard against
Boro, but home advantage should give them the edge. |

Newcastle
v Reading |
| |
Newcastle
won't have played for 10 days but their injury problems haven't
really eased. The unfamiliar territory of the relegation places
puts the pressure on the home team to get a result against a
newly promoted Reading side. Their last game at St James Park
was a vital win over Portsmouth and this game is another one
against a club riding high in the Premiership and proving everyone
wrong. Kevin Doyle is scoring for fun at the moment and now
heads up the Premiership golden boot alongside Drogba and Kanu,
with 8 goals. Reading have shown that if they score first they
are very hard to pull back and they won't be afraid to attack
Newcastle. This game could be a cracker and there is probably
very little to choose between them at St James Park. |

West
Ham v Wigan |
| |
Wigan
have taken some notable scalps on the road this season (at Bolton
and Fulham) but they have lost 4 of their 7 away fixtures, and
won't be feeling too confident after Liverpool bashed them in
the first half at the JJB to the tune of 4 goals. This result
said more about Liverpool and the return of Bellamy than it
did about Wigan, but Jewell was mindful that his side didn't
expose the visitors enough. West Ham went down at Everton to
make it only 1 point and only 2 goals on the road. However,
there was a big plus for Pardew in Tevez's performance; he was
absolutely everywhere and should have earned back the respect
of his team mates after last week's walkout. At home, the Hammers
have had relatively more success with 4 wins and only 2 defeats;
they've been victorious in their last 3 at Upton Park. With
such poor away form, West Ham know that they must make home
advantage count and take all 3 points. |
