FOOTBALL RUN DOWN – Matches 31 Jan 2007
Fred Done
The Premiership title race is getting more and more interesting by the minute.
After Chelsea and Manchester United’s slip-ups in the league just over a week ago, Liverpool who have been the form side in the Premiership in the last eight or so games are now only five points behind Chelsea with the chance of making it two this week.
Watford got a rare win also giving them the most miniscule of a chance to avoid the drop.
Here’s how I think the Wednesday games will pan out.
Chelsea 2/7 (1.28) v Blackburn 8/1 (9.00), the draw 10/3 (4.33).
With Shevchenko finally scoring and Drogba still in top form, a Chelsea win looks to be the safe option here. Although Blackburn’s recent form say’s they can not be discarded. 2-1 home win is 7/1 (8.00).
Newcastle Evs (2.00) v Villa 9/4 (3.25), 9/4 (3.25) the draw.
Martin O’Neil has made some great signings, especially the Norwegian John Carew as part of the Milan Baros to Lyon deal. I think Aston Villa are a great price here. 2-1 Villa is 11/1 (12.00) with £9.65m signing Ashley Young 10/1 (11.00) to score first. If Carew starts he has a big chance at 6/1 (7.00).
Man Utd 1/8 (1.12) v Watford 16/1 (17.00), the draw 5/1 (6.00).
This is more a case of “how many” as opposed to who will win. Man Utd are so fluent at home this season with all players contributing to their goal scoring campaign. A home 3-0 win is 6/1 (7.00) with Saha who may return to action this week 7/2 (4.50) to score first.
Bolton 4/9 v Charlton 11/2, the draw 11/4.
Bolton appear to be coming out of their poor recent form after a spirited performance against Arsenal. With this in mind I can see them taking home advantage. 1-0 Bolton is 6/1 (7.00). Captain Kevin Nolan is 8/1 (9.00) to score first.
