Weekend Predictions

This week Arsene Wenger remained defiant despite the fact that Arsenal lost in successive home games against Blackburn and Bayern Munich in different cup competitions. His team are still in the Champions League by the way. Fifa finally announced that technology will be used in a competition that really matters. Whether Ireland will be there or not is unknown but goal line technology will definitely be used at Brazil 2014. 

This weekend there will be nine Premier League games as well as the League Cup Final between Swansea City and League Two side Bradford. What chance of an upset? There will be every chance if Swansea play like they did at Anfield last Sunday. 

For the first time on this blog I will have some competition for the weekend predictions. Brendan Ryan who is a Manchester United fan from Tipperary Town has accepted the task of taking on the master (that's me by the way). 3 points for a correct score and 1 point forthe right result.

Premier League Predictions

It was a week in which Jamie Carragher, one of Liverpool's greatest ever defenders, surprisingly announced that he will be retiring from football at the end of the season. Frank Lampard, whose Chelsea future still remains very much in doubt, scored a wonderful winner for England against Brazil, while Wes Hoolahan showed that he should be part of Giovani Trapattoni's future plans with a marvelous goal against Poland. All three players will be hoping to retain their places in their clubs starting line ups in the Premiership over the next three days. Liverpool will host West Brom, Chelsea will play Wigan at Stamford Bridge, while Norwich will be at home to Fulham. Below are the predictions for the weekend's fixtures. 3 points for the correct score and 1 point for the correct result.

Kick off 3.p.m unless stated.

Premiership Predictions

After transfer deadline day on Thursday premiership action will resume on Saturday. Queens Park Rangers, who made a few signings but not as many as Harry Redknapp or Peter Odemwingie would have liked, will take on Norwich City at Loftus Road in a vital match at the bottom of the table. Wigan, who tried to sign John Stones before he chose Everton will play host to Southampton in another crucial relegation clash. On Sunday Manchester City will begin life without Mario Bolotelli at home to Liverpool, while West Brom (without Odemwingie) will entertain Spurs, who were unusually quiet on deadline day. It is 3 points for a correct score and 1 point for the right result.

Fixtures (3.p.m unless stated)

Saturday

QPR v Norwich (12.45.p.m) 1-0

Arsenal v Stoke City 2-1

Everton v Aston Villa 2-1

Newcastle v Chelsea 1-2

Reading v Sunderland 2-2

West Ham v Swansea 1-0

Wigan v Southampton 3-2

Fulham v Manchester United 1-2
