How can one look past this offer here.

Motherwell have been very good of late at home with three stright league wins including a solid one in Mid-week over Inverness. They are currently sitting firmly in third place in the SPL and are more than deserving of this. Clarkson has been in fantastic form for them this season and has been scoring goals although defensivly perhaps not being the greatest they will be way to much for this Hearts side.

What is there to say about Hearts. Few years back tehy were really pushing Rangers & Celtic but since then things have really gone down hill, mainly sue to their owner keep getting invloved with squad issues. This week there has been talk o their top scorer Velicka leaving which will do no good for the side and this has been a continuing theme for them over last couple of seasons with the dressing room athmosphere not being very good.

Hearts will also be likely missing players in the form of Andrius Velicka, Michael Stewart, Andy Driver and Laryea Kingston who are all struggling to make this game. Motherwell shall be at full strength.

I dont think there is any real need for a big preview here but i really just don't see any other result here than a United Win and at the very least getting our cash back.

I saw Newcastles recent home match against Boro' and i can't say that i was really very inspired. They lacked any real creativity in the midfield and in the end had to rely upon a set piece in that game. Again at Villa they were so poor defensivly and i really do believe that they are well and truely in this relagation battle especially if they don't start to perform quickly.

United are clearly a quality outfit even if they have not won either of their last two league games. For the City Derby they were without Rooney who is of course a very big player for United and alot does go through him for them aswell as Ronaldo. Both of these will play and it will be very interestig to see how Newcastle try to deal with them, especially Ronaldo as im pretty convinced that he's going to get alot of chances against this Newcastle defence.

I just have to take United, there can only be one winner here and i suspect united will be it, they just cant afford to drop anymore ground on the Gunners,

Good Luck!

So Plymouth blew us out in mid-week against the Saints. But that game could have been very different had the Saints decided to take any of their earlier chances in the game but the game was effectivly over once that Plymouth had taken a x2 goal lead within a crazy two minute spell for the Saints.

I had mentioned in my saints preview how this Plymouth side have really suffered as a result of the January Transfer window as they have lost the spine of their side and despite them gaining a couple of positive results in a row that has failed to convince me otherwise and in this game they could encounter a couple of other problems imo.

Burnley are a decent away side and will make it difficult for this Plymouth side to break them down. They are not the worst side going forward and are capable of scoring goals. But defensivly they are very big and strong and i suspect Plymouth will struggle with this.

Betting on West Brom at home for me is always a great bet. Despite having to take this larger handicap it's still well worth backing what i consider the best side in this division.

West Brom have stuttered abit in recent weeks and so this week have entered the transfer market by shelling out 3.5m on Moore from Villa to further improve their striking options. Despite some recent lack of form, they have not actually been playing that badly. They really should have won the home game against Sheff Utd having had by far the best chances and really should have scored at least once. Their other two defeats have come away from home but again they have not played all that badly in those games and as this game is at the Hawthornes i really dont see that being much of a problem as their home form is far superior than when they play away from home.

Hull have been performing ok lately but have stuttered abit in the recent weeks and i feel they will get abit of a backlash here from The Albion. They have picked up some draws of late and last weekend were properly outplayed by Colchester for long periods of the match before claiming a draw.

Im not going to say to much about this game but i suspect that West Brom will win this game and continue their fine home form.

Decent offer here on the Tykes. They ome into this game after a fantastic result against Liverpool last time out at Anfield in the FA Cup and this is bound to have boosted their confidence where as for Norwich, it's the complete opposite after suffering a 4-0 defeat at Leicester last weekend.

Before that defeat, Norwich had actually been on fantastic form with a very long unbeaten run but alot of their squad is loan players and it's also a very small squad which is the problem here for this game. Norwich will be missing three key players for this game which will stretch their squad somewhat and the players tocome in are unproven and the feeling amongest alot of City fans is that they actually lack any real ability. Russell is out here aswell as Fotheringham & Dublin. Key players for city.

Barnsley have not really performed on the road this season despite that fantastic result at Anfield last weekend in which loan keeper Steele played a blinder in but they are certainly no worse off than this Norwich side and for this game will welcome back Jon Macken, Lewin Nyatanga and keeper Tony Warner. I can see Barnsley taking something from this game, Norwich are missing key players and so this offer is worth a shot.
