This weekend you can find a fantastic Super Sunday line up featuring the Merseyside and London derby’s respectively. A struggling Liverpool side will travel a few miles across to the blue half of the city to take on Everton at Goodison Park, Arsenal meanwhile host Chelsea at the Emirates in a clash that will not decide the title but may well give us an inclination of both teams’ title aspirations.
Man Utd travel to Portsmouth looking to gain some momentum in a title charge. The same time last year the Red Devils managed to put together a 16 game unbeaten run on the way to winning another successive Premiership title and Sir Alex Ferguson will be looking for his team to do the same again in order to keep the pressure on Chelsea. United have a good history of bouncing back after defeats so I would not pay attention to the midweek Champions League result where they fielded an youthful inexperienced side. The likes of Wayne Rooney, Michael Carrick and Darren Fletcher look likely to return. Portsmouth have had another busy week behind the scenes after dispatching the services of Paul Hart that has come somewhat of a surprise even though the team currently languish at the bottom of the table. Currently 4 points off 17th Pompey could do with a win and should be fired up for the game against the champions, a win would do a lot for the confidence of the South Coast club. I would back Man Utd to come away with a narrow victory here, the best odds are given over at Blue Square at 2/5 for a win and Wayne Rooney to be first goal scorer at 7/2.
The first of the Super Sunday games see Everton take on Liverpool, both clubs have been struggling for form in recent weeks with injuries ravaging both their squads. David Moyes men will want to take advantage of Liverpool’s slump and will be buoyed by the return of their influential combative midfielder Marouane Fellaini. Captain Phil Neville is still sidelined after being forced to undergo surgery on the knee he injured against Fulham in September but Steven Pienaar has been training all week and looks likely to start. Liverpool after being dumped out of the Champions League this week will now look to focus on securing a top four finish and will see the Everton game as the spark to reignite their season. Torres will still be sidelined for the fixture but Steven Gerrard, Glen Johnson and Javier Mascherano should all start. Despite the return of their influential skipper I think the accumulative injuries of both sides will mean weakened sides being used meaning a draw looks the most likely result, the best odds are offer over at Skybet.com at 12/5.
The next of the Super Sunday games see Arsenal host Chelsea, Arsenal will want to get their title challenge back on track after their 1-0 loss to Sunderland last weekend where Arsene Wenger labelled his side ‘chokers’. Arsenal may well look to Theo Walcott to bolster a depleted attacking line up after sustaining injuries to Van Persie and Bendtner respectively, the best odds on him to be first goal scorer can be found over at Betfred.com at 12/1. Chelsea are still going strong in all competitions and kept up their winning way with an impressive away win at Porto, Ancelotti is optimistic that Frank Lampard could be fit for Sunday’s clash. Chelsea are not suffering from any major injuries and the likes of top goal scorer Didier Drogba should return after given a midweek rest. I can see Chelsea nicking an away goal and winning this game, you can find the best odds on them to come away from the Emirates with all three points at Bet365 with odds of 7/4.
