There are 6 matches in store tonight, with Liverpool and Chelsea desperate to stay in touch with Man Utd at the top after yesterday’s trouncing of West Brom. There are some interesting clashes too, with Footie Frog keen to see how the rest of the league gets on after the Transfer Window madness.
Blackburn v Bolton: All the B’s if you add Boring – neither side has inspired thus far this season, both are hard to beat with little creativity going forward. Blackburn’s better forward line inspires the Frog to plump for them. Home win.
Chelsea v Middlesbrough: No matter how miserable Chelsea’s recent performances, Middlesbrough are doing a fine job of making all their opposition look like Brazil. It is hard to see anything but a home win, and no wins in ten should turn to none in eleven later tonight.
Everton v Arsenal: Arsene Wenger has talked up the strength of Everton ahead of this one, so he presumably predicts a loss for his team and is getting his reasoning in early. Footie Frog is inclined to agree with him – though Everton are striker-less, they could bully Arsenal out of their back yard. Another home win.
Manchester City v Newcastle: Not one to be inconsistent, Footie Frog can’t see anything but a home win here either. The Toon have looked shoddy at times recently, and a side strengthened in the transfer window by both steel and pace should cause them problems. Keep an eye on the debutants. Oh and the bailed Brazilian.
West Ham v Hull: Bizarrely the match that Sky have decided to show, they must see something in this one that a certain Frog thinks will be lacking. A couple of debuts to keep an eye on though, as both Bullard (Hull) and that 3 in 25 scoring *ahem* sensation Savio (West Ham) are set to play. Both sides could find scoring difficult. A draw.
Wigan v Liverpool: The only win that Footie Frog predicts will not be at home this evening is this match at the JJB. Liverpool should be able to overcome a Wigan side that were in fine form, but who have just sold two key players. It will be interesting to see how the Latics cope with a combination of sales and injuries tonight. Carra and Co shouldn’t be quaking at the prospect of Mido, Heskey’s replacement. Away Win.
