28 November 2012

This week’s midweek action is focused on the English Premier League. With only five points separating the top four teams on the EPL log, there is no space for error, however the three points will not come easy.

We preview Tottenham Hotspur’s clash with Liverpool as well the tie between Everton an Arsenal. Who will win?

 

Wigan Athletic host Manchester City, while Chelsea and Fulham go head-to-head in a London derby. Can City snatch the three points from Wigan? Who is your money on?

 

If you are a betting person, here are tips ahead of the midweek action brought to you by Soccer 6 and guest predictor, AmaZulu defender, Marc van Heerden. For more info on these and other fixtures, go to the Soccer 6 website here or the Soccer 6 mobi-site here!

 

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR V LIVERPOOL

League position: Spurs 7th and Liverpool 11th 

Useful facts: Spurs reversed a recent poor run of form after winning at home to West Ham United in their last match played. Liverpool could be close to becoming the English Premiership’s very own version of SuperSport United – the Reds have drawn seven of their 13 league matches played. 

Marc van Heerden: Spurs win at home. 

 

EVERTON V ARSENAL 

League position: Everton 5th and Arsenal 6th 

Useful facts: Everton’s bright start to the season has started to fade, the Toffees have dropped nine points from their last five matches. Arsenal have also been a bit hit-and-miss, Arsene Wenger’s men have drawn three of their last five matches played. 

Marc van Heerden: Tough one, I’ll go with a draw. 

 

WIGAN ATHLETIC V MANCHESTER CITY

League position: Wigan 15th and City 2nd 

Useful facts: Wigan are traditionally quite strong at the JJB Stadium, the Latics will need all the support they can get as they prepare for the visit of the league champions. City are very solid on their travels and will feel favourites going into this tie. 

Marc van Heerden: Manchester City win for sure. 

 

CHELSEA V FULHAM 

League position: Chelsea 4th and Fulham 10th 

Useful facts: Life under Rafa Benitez got off to an unspectacular start, the Spaniard guiding Chelsea to a 0-0 draw in his opening game in charge. The Blues will be hoping for a much better response as they prepare for the visit of a Dimitar Berbatov-inspired Fulham. 

Marc van Heerden: Chelsea win. The players will want to prove their fans wrong about Rafa Benitez.
