Football Fixtures 14th-15th April 2012

Norwich v Manchester City. Can Manchester City turn the competition on it's head Manchester United are marching on with a 5 point lead and with very few games remaining, it is all starting to look doom and gloom. And even with the 5.1. hiding against Norwich City prematurely in the season Norwich are now galvanised claiming victories against Spurs, and a well fought draw against Everton. I am sorry City fans I am calling this a win for Norwich. Sunderland V Wolves. Sunderland look bloody good managing a draw against Spurs as well they should, only to loose 4.0 against Everton. Isn't football a funny mistress. Even so Wolves aren't doing much good either loosing 2.1 against Stoke. I am calling this match a safe draw. Swansea V Blackburn Blackburn won against Swansea 4.2 and the way they have conducted themselves against Manchester United & Liverpool might mean Blackburn will at last turn up and play some winning football. Blackburn to win. West Brom V QPR Take nothing away from QPR they fought well with 10 men against a Manchester United side chasing a 20th title, and this basis I am calling this match a win for QPR. Liverpool V Everton FA CUP Semi Final. LIverpool will struggle in this match with a 3rd choice goal keeper and a mid field who are not pulling the same strings. The exclusion of Gerrard against Blackburn might mean King Kenny is in his transitional mindset, always dangerous. However, that said Liverpool are masters in the latter stages of the FA Cup and KIng Kenny's men will not show Everton any quarter. Difficult to call this one. Manchester United V Aston Villa How can anybody stop Manchester United claiming a 20th title? Even Scholes is coming into the right form, you just have to stand their grimace and applaud. They look the champions now and even by being encumbered by Wigan to a rare loss hasn't dented their title chances not with a 5 point gap this is winning form. Normal service should resume against Aston Villa this weekend favouring Manchester United because of the 1.0 victory over Aston Villa away from home. Prediction Manchster United to win. Spurs V Chelsea FA Cup Semi Final. Another match of significance heads to London and Harry's team will want to save face starting this match with a tighter formation and a more fluid attack. Chelsea on the other hand will start the match the better team with DM's men well prepared and concious of the truth their league meeting amounted to a draw. Meanwhile Spurs will want to put the distraction of the league in the background knowingly aware if the right Spurs team arrives at White Hart Lane victory is assured. Anything less and Chelsea will punish slack jaw defending.
