Wolverhampton Wanderers v Aston Villa
Venue: Molineux
League Positions: 20 v 3
Current Forms: 15 v 21

Difficult to force in a topical comment about this game so I'll just say "Starmer. Mandelson & ball boys".

I'm quite surprised at what my spreadsheet has calculated as current form for both teams, so will take a look at the code next week.  As for tonight, well, I can only see one outcome:

Prediction: Away Win

A. F. C. Bournemouth v Sunderland
Venue: Dean Court
League Positions: 8 v 12
Current Forms: 29 v 22

Again I'm getting itchy beard about my current form figures, so home advantage and a better placing in the league strongly...OK, strongly is a bit strong...suggests a:

Burnley v Brentford
Venue: Turf Moor
League Positions: 19 v 7
Current Forms: 14 v 31

Battle of the "B's".

A game Brentford will relish in their chase for a European spot through their league placing. Who would have thought it when we all started following the game, eh? Brentford in Europe. It's only just about in London, FFS. Anyhow, an almost certain:

Prediction: Away Win

Liverpool v West Ham United
Venue: Anfield
League Positions: 6 v 18
Current Forms: 39 v 27

Now this is a game in which  I really don't know where to go.

I'm sure (except any closet spurs fans reading this) that we all want...nay, need... the 3 points. Will we get them? Will we get anything here? All depends on which team turns up. For both sides. And you just know - KNOW - that VAR will stitch us up if given the chance.

Ask yourself this: would you prefer Man U or Liverpool in the CL next term. No. Don't. It's a stupid question and one that doesn't even belong here. But, 3 points? For us? At Anfield? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

Prediction: Draw

Newcastle United v Everton
Venue: St James' Park
League Positions: 11 v 9
Current Forms: 27 v 11

Current form states that the Barcodes should walk this. However, their mid-week game may have an impact (Not seen anything but the score so no idea if Howe rested key players).

As for Moyes' (remember him?) Everton? Dogged, for sure but not enough bite to come away with anything here.

Prediction: Home Win

Leeds United v Manchester City
Venue: Elland Road
League Positions: 15 v 2
Current Forms: 26 v 45

City are certainly on a roll. If my current form calculations are correct they on maximum points and Arsenal should be slightly concerned.

Leeds are certainly proving to not be the relegation certainties many predicted, at the start of the season, they would be, but they're not quite out of the mix, either.

If we have pulled a rabbit out of the hat at Anfield, and Leeds lose here, they will definitely be catch-able. As will Arsenal for City.

Prediction: Away Win

Fulham v Tottenham Hotspur
Venue: Craven Cottage
League Positions: 10 v 16
Current Forms: 27 v 26

Anyone think that Spurs are looking forward to this game?...Anyone?...Anyone? Hello! HELLO! Wake up, you at the back!

Can't see Fulham pushing for Europe, so I expect a Sullivan stylee mid-table PL survival is what they're going for.

Now. This Norf Lundun lot.  2 places above and 4 points ahead of us at the time of my writing this.

Dare we? I mean, really, dare we? You know that bit that concerns "Fading" & "Dying"?: Turned 70 this week and spent (or more realistically, mis-spent) much of my free time in those 7 decades following the Hammers. Know all about fading, thankfully a bit less about dying.

Prediction: Draw

Manchester United v Crystal Palace
Venue: Old Trafford
League Positions: 5 v 13
Current Forms: 37 v 16

Come on Palace! We ain't catching you and Carrick's bouncing cat is now beyond fucking annoying. Got 3 Man U fans amongst my regular associates in Thailand.

One's a Thai doctor and the other two are as English as it gets. Even I have been to Old Trafford more often than all 3 combined - and I stopped going to games not long after we beat Arsenal in the FA Cup. The local I can accept, but the other 2? Pah! I want an away win, but, sadly:

Prediction: Home Win

Brighton & Hove Albion v Nottingham Forest
Venue: Falmer Stadium
League Positions: 14 v 17
Current Forms: 16 v 26

After our game yesterday, this is now THE most important fixture in the weekend's programme.  Forest seem to be getting it together and, despite losing at home to Fenerbahçe on Thursday are still in Europe (remember that? Europe? We went there once or twice quite recently).

As for this game, I suspect Robin Hood's men will go home all covered in seagull shit. Which suits me just fine & dandy.

Prediction: Home Win

Arsenal v Chelsea
Venue: Emirates Stadium
League Positions: 1 v 4
Current Forms: 33 v 23

I think it's gonna be now or never for the Gunners & the title, but the rent boys are so close to the arse that no lube is needed. The Woolwich exiles do seem to be able to turn it on, but they can also mimic to perfection that other north London lot...you know...the ones with a new(er) stadium & the like. I'm going, though, for a...

...and my acca (to really give your weekend a perfect start)...

Aston Villa (Away @ Wolverhampton Wanderers )
Brentford (Away @ Burnley)
Liverpool (@ Home to West Ham United)
Manchester City (Away @ Leeds United)

Stake: £11.00
Potential returns: £40.60 - move over, Del Boy, Oxsaw's comin' thru'.

Brighton and Fulham getting the right result and keeps us hanging (by a thread) in there and possibly avoiding the drop.

Need Fulham to now have a stinker and we get a much needed 3 points, won't hold my breath on that though, they seem to be in good form!

Still think we are very much favourites to drop, but will keep fingers and toes crossed, as funny as Spurs situation is you just know they are going to click at some point and get a few results on the bounce and pull away, not so sure about Forest, they are bit like us all over the place but there fixtures look a bit easier to me, but what the fuck to i know

No,  the announcer shouts the first name and they all shout the surname, it's a European style thing.

Just seen thay penalty / red card decision at man u.  Absolute fucking disgrace.    Shame the ref couldn't see a clip of it to see what a mistake it was..... oh he did?  Corruption in this league is outrageous.  Absolute corruption

A full house of Hatreds  FMOB

Have we never done that?

Arsenal wankers, chanting players names now after they score a goal like they do in German league. 

It should have been a straight red, IMBECILE , if Potts was
Do you actually watch football?

 

It was a second yellow, you fool.

Neto tackle very much like Freddie Potts at Burton
Yellow not red

Set-Piece FC 

Raya comes out and punches Pedro in the head as the ball comes in
No penalty 

Areola on Gibbs White v Forest?
Fabianski on an Arsenal player at London Stadium?

What is the law?

Not new mate ...always have been 

Rice has the Chelsea player in a headlock and punched the ball over the bar
Penalty and not a genuine tackle so a red card
Why ever not?

Well, I guess the best that can be said for this weekend is that Spurs & Forest never pulled away from us (if you ignore goal difference, that is).

Best pray to your god of choice that we can turn Fulham over this week.

They lose to palace and that igor tudor-lodge will be gone i reckon
