Saturday
Fulham v West Ham (12.45pm) The Cottagers and the Hammers to remind Sky why this is an odd choice for the early kick-off. 0:0
Arsenal v Blackburn (3pm) I can only see a comfortable home win in this one. 3:0
Aston Villa v Manchester United (3pm) Expect to see Fergie’s spittle still dripping from his players as the emerge to avenge defeat to West Ham. 0:2
Liverpool v Watford (3pm) I think Watford will give the Reds more of a game than Charlton did. 2:1
Manchester City v Bolton (3pm) Should be a close match, but Bolton to edge it. 1:2
Middlesbrough v Charlton (3pm) Les Reed’s Charlton might just sneak a point at the Riverside. 1:1
Newcastle v Tottenham (3pm) Tottenham’s strength in depth could be decisive. 1:2
Portsmouth v Sheffield United (3pm) Kanu to win it for Pompey. 2:0
Reading v Everton (3pm) I fancy Reading to get something out of this one. 2:2
Wigan v Chelsea (5.15pm) Away win all the way. 0:2
