TOTTENHAM - MANCHESTER CITY
I do not think that Sven will take any chances with Elano and he will only start if 100% fit and judging by recent reports, that seems unlikely. That fact, combined with City's poor away form (one win in 7) and record against Spurs (lost the last six ), makes me lean towards the home team.
Tottenham desperately need the win, as, next up, they visit Portsmouth and then Arsenal, which could leave them entering the Christmas programme in the bottom 3, how the Gunners supporters would enjoy that !
They are without the suspended Keane, but with Berbatov, Defoe and Bent available, can hardly use that as an excuse, in any case all their problems are at the other end of the pitch, where they concede far too freely. Anyhow, I expect them to come out fired up and all guns blazing today.
5 points Tottenham -1/2 ball 2.00 +
BLACKBURN ROVERS- WEST HAM UNITED
I expect this to be an open encounter, like most of Blackburn's recent home starts. These two tend to produce a lot of entertainment when they meet at Ewood Park, the last 7 meetings have been over and 8 from 9, which produced an average of 4.22 goals per game. It is not the West Ham way to sit back and with the returning Ashton and Ljungberg, they have too many offensive options to do so. Bentley is suspended for Rovers and he will be missed, but it is a clear "over" for me.
6 points "over" 2.25 goals 1.80 asian line.
Back Later.
