For full disclosure, Man City's the club that I support the most and will try and watch them whenever I can and I'm somewhat of a homer.

They've looked great since the change in manager. They always had skill, but everything was errattic and choppy. These last two games, they looked confident, forwards backchecked (or whatever the soccer-term is :) ) with effort and there's was no gaping holes in the back as has been the case for the first half of the season. And while their wins came against clubs from the lower half of the table, they outclass Middlesborogh. City loses Ireland to injury and Toure and Adebayor to Africa's Cup, but Tevez has been a beast and Robinho and Petrov have so much to prove to Mancini who says he will be fielding his best team possible. . . .I haven't learned if Premier League Managers lie as much as NFL coaches, but if he's telling the truth, City will win.

Soccer - 332 Manchester City -185 for Game 1 unit

For tomorrow

I lived in England when I was 6 and that was before the NFL was broadcast oversees, so I "followed" English football as well as you can at 6. I knew about Kevin Keegan, I knew about Liverpool, I knew about Man U. . . and I knew about Leeds. Leeds tried to take a shot at the top 4 by outspending them about a decade ago and as my FIFA 2010 game says "it went wrong for them", but they still consider ManU a rival even though they're 2 divisions behind. Ferguson hasn't taken the Cups all that seriously and with the injuries, the upcoming Cup derbies with City, Champions League game (and Beckham's return) in February and Chelsea vulnerable with Africa Cup subtractions in the Premier League, there's only so many battles you can fight. But this game is everything for Leeds and no one has a better record in England than they do in the third division

Leeds!Leeds!Leeds!

If there's a more thrilling betting experience than going against Man U as they pummel your team's goal for the last 15 minutes, I haven't found it.

Leeds!Leeds!Leeds!
