This coupon gets off to a cracking start at Elland Road on Saturday when Man U. visit Leeds. These games are always tight and are full of passion, tension and rivalry. Throw Rio Ferdinand's return Leeds into the mix and it'll be a real powder keg at Elland Road. Leeds hit an unexpected slump after impressing early, however they will be lifted by their players' performances for England at the weekend. Man U. traditionally do well in this fixture and will be expecting at least a point.
You never know what you'll get with Chelsea. Some weeks they are brilliant some weeks rubbish. Even from half to half you're never sure. Newcastle supply the opposition at Stamford Bridge on Saturday. The Magpies showed a lot of spirit salvaging a point last week at Anfield when they really should have been completely out of it, but their visit should be enough to have Chelsea firing on all cylinders.
My old teammate Graeme Souness has created a very exciting team at Blackburn. Their visit to Man City should be an entertaining game. I think City may just shade it due to home advantage.
Sunderland have had a couple of good results lately and Fulham's visit should provide three points for Peter Reid. Down at the bottom, Southampton will be expecting at least a point against West Brom but will be keen for more considering their predicament.
In the Nationwide League there's sure to be a fast and furious derby at Portman Road between Ipswich and Norwich. I just fancy the home side. I expect to see a result at Forest vs Watford is the kind of game that could go either way so I'm going for a Home Win/ Away Win double.
