Weekend Review - 14 May 2011


Blackburn Rovers vs Manchester United




We are just one point away from the Premier League title and could dislodge Liverpool for the most title win. We are currently on par with Liverpool with 18 titles win. Just one more and we have the bragging rights.

Next season we will be seeing Norwich City and Queens Park Rangers in the Premier League. How we missed these teams when they feature in 2005 and 1995 respectively.

With the Premier League more or less settled, the interesting part will be the relegation battle at the foot of the table. Currently West Ham, Wolves, Blackpool, Blackburn, Wigan and Carling Cup winners Birmingham City. It will be unthinkable to see Birmingham City got relegated and play in the Europa League.

Ironically, we face 2 teams in the final 2 rounds of the Premier League that are currently in relegation battle, Blackburn and Blackpool.

My prediction for the final 3 teams to go down to Championship will be West Ham, Wolves and Blackpool. Although Blackburn is currently a joke with the Indian owners, and Birmingham City a decent club, I really dont see why they should get relegated.

Blackburn Team News: David Dunn, Ryan Nelsen and Vince Gella are out.

Man Utd Team News: Edwin van der Sar and Javier Hernandez could be rested since they featured quite heavily in the run-in of the Premier League and Champions League title, according to Fergie.

Odds and Analysis: Man Utd is giving 0.75 handicap. Go for Man Utd win and be crowned Barclays Premier League 2010/2011 Champions.
