13th - 14th November 2010
13th November 2010Aston Villa (5.5) Draw (3.6) Manchester United (1.83)
Villa have many injuries ahead of this game, influential players such as Carew and Heskey. Midweek they were unconvincing in their win over Blackpool. Another draw on the road for Manchester United see the slipping further behind Chelsea. They did beta Stoke though and Manchester City is not as easy place to go. A lack of scoring is a little worrying with only Nani in good form now. Villa has traditionally done badly against Manchester United but in the last 2 seasons this fixture has been a draw. X2 for sure but which one? I prefer the draw as Manchester United haven't shown they can win against top sides away from home. Its 3.6 at VC Bet.
Manchester City (1.44) Draw (4.5) Birmingham (9)
City would have been happy with their 0-0 against Manchester United. They are still further behind Chelsea but they are more comfortable in 4th place now. Looks like Mancini will be a little more attacking minded this game after the rather defensive play last game. Birmingham fought back from 2-0 against Stoke to make it 2-2 but then lost with a late goal. Thats a never say die attitude that Birmingham have. The stats aren't kind to Birmingham on the road this year though, 0-3-3. Home win for me. Its 1.44 at VC Bet.
Newcastle United (2) Draw (3.5) Fulham (4.33)
Its almost unreal that Newcastle sit 5th. After writing them off at the start of the season, I have to change my opinion. The 1-0 win at Arsenal last week has got to be their finest moment this season for sure. Carroll is scoring for fun. Only problem is that their home form is inconsistent to say the least. Fulham are never good on the road. I can't remember the last win they had. Certainly not one this season. They do draw a lot games though. Draw at Villa last week. I am willing to bet on the home win here. Newcastle have been hammering teams when they have won (6-0 and 5-1) at home so I'll take a chance and got for Newcastle -1 on the 1X2 handicap at 3.6 at bet365. The straight win is 2.0.
Tottenham (1.67) Draw (4) Blackburn (6)
Spurs seemed to have peaked with their win at Inter. A loss at Blackburn then a draw at home to Sunderland see their chances of hitting 4th place again look slim even at this early stage of the season. Injuries to key players are costing them. Pavlyuchenko, Keanne and Defoe are all out. As for Blackburn, they have found their goal scorer in Jason Roberts. Excellent win for them at Newcastle midweek. 2 wins on the bounce for them now, both 2-1. Poor odds for Spurs considering their injuries and Blackburn's recent form. For some reason though, teams outside the top 4 seem to struggle to string a 3 wins in a row together. I am going for an overs bet. Over 2.5 is 1.88 at bet365. Blackburn can score so Spurs will have to score 2 to win.
West Ham (1.95) Draw (3.8) Blackpool (4.33)
West Ham are in deep trouble now and this could be one of the most important games of the season for them. Surely if they are fighting a relegation battle it will be against Blackpool. They seem to have problems keeping leads. Grant should really be getting them to shut up shop once they go ahead. Blackpool may have been a little unlucky against Villa midweek. Just when it looked like they scored a late goal to take a point, Villa score again. Blackpool are a strange team. On paper they should not be in the Premiership but they just keep nicking the odds point here and there. Looks like an overs game but the odds are shocking for that. I think I will go for the Blackpool win. No way is 1.95 good for a team at the bottom of the table with only 1 win all season. I'll go for them on the Asian Handicap. Its 2.05 +0.5 goals at bet365.
Wigan (2.6) Draw (3.3) West Bromwich (3)
A couple of strong performance recently for Wigan but only a single point. They'll be happy with the point against Liverpool midweek though. Its not very often Wigan have gotten anything off the big teams. West Brom got out of jail a couple of times against West Ham. Twice they were behind but twice they manged to pull it back. I sort of think that maybe West Brom's excellent run has come to an end now and the odds don't fully reflect that. I'll be backing Wigan. Its 2.6 at VC Bet.
Wolverhampton (2.4) Draw (3.3) Bolton (3.25)
Wolves have been playing well recently but against the opposition, they probably wouldn't have even expected 3 points before the run. Chelsea, City, Manchester United and Arsenal all in row is harsh for any team. They did manage to beat City and played fantastic against Arsenal and Manchester United. Bolton will should be a more winnable game. Bolton are a tough nut to crack nowadays. They were only seconds away from beating Everton midweek. They manged to knock 4 past Spurs last week too with Kevin Davis getting 2. I will back Wolves this game. If they don't win this, they look like they will be fighting it out at the end of season for relegation. Playing well and losing, unfortunately, doesn't get you any points. Wolves win is 2.4 at VC Bet.
Stoke (3.75) Draw (3.4) Liverpool (2.2)
Stoke won their last game against Birmingham with a late goal. Not a very convincing win but at least they managed to score 3 goals and we all know goals win games. Liverpool were excellent in their win over Chelsea. Maybe they put too much effort in to it because against Wigan they looked tired and a draw was a good result considering Wigan were the better side on the day. I am still not convince this Liverpool side is good enough to be backed away from home at 2.2 yet. Much better value on the draw I think. Its 3.4 at Totesport.
Everton (3.4) Draw (3.4) Arsenal (2.3)
Everton are still an in form team despite a week of draws. Maybe they should have won those to be considered 'in form' but Bolton are a tough team to beat and Blackpool just seem to be playing above their level every week. Just when you think Arsenal are going to make a fight for the title, they go do something stupid like lose at home to Newcastle. They badly need to shoot more. They 2-0 scoreline at Wolves was a little flattening to them and Wolves didn't really deserve to lose that game. For this, I think Everton are way over priced. I see this as an even contest so 2.5 maybe so the 3.4 at VC Bet is great. They'll also want revenge for last season's 6-1 thrashing.
Chelsea (1.25) Draw (6.5) Sunderland (17)
Chelsea seem to be stuttering their way to their now rather than cruising. A loss at Liverpool and 1-0 win at home to Fulham isn't spectacular but no one else seems to be able to capitalise on it. They will miss Essien for this game which will be a big blow. Stanford Bridge has been an absolute fortress for them this season. They have won all 7 games and conceding zero goals. That run must come to an end sometime though. Sunderland responded well to the 5-1 thrashing at Newcastle with a win at Stoke and good draw at Spurs. Their away record still sucks though. I have been profiting from betting Chelsea to win to nil at home so I am not going to change a winning system. Its going to end sometime but might as well keeping betting on it while it works. It's 1.83 at bet365.
