Premiership picks

Another round of the Premier League is here and Sports Trader makes their picks for the weekend.

Some interesting match ups but few more exciting than the Man Utd clash with Chelsea.

The only real "bogey" fixture would appear to be Stoke vs. Liverpool on Saturday. Stoke surprised Arsenal not so long ago and there is a lot of pressure on Rafa to make sure his side doesn't drop points here.

Saturday
Aston Villa v West Brom - Villa win
Newcastle v West Ham - Newcastle win
Arsenal v Bolton - Arsenal win
Portsmouth v Man City - Draw
Everton v Hull - Everton win
Middlesbrough v Sunderland - Middlesbrough win
Fulham v Blackburn - Draw
Stoke v Liverpool - Draw

Sunday
Wigan v Tottenham - Wigan win
Man Utd v Chelsea - Man Utd win

While Man Utd got a surprise at Derby, we're backing them to win. Neither Ferguson nor the Old Trafford faithful will tolerate anything but a win here and Scolari's side is going to battle to keep his side on top of their game here.

Wins for Kaizer Chiefs and United.

Chelsea fans are going to be more than a little bleak.
