Chelsea v Wolves: 0-0
YES! I got a prediction right. Unfortunately it was in the Bayern Leverkusen game and Chelsea lost 2-1. Yes, once again, we concede a goal in the last couple of minutes; just like the game against Liverpool. It is becoming a habit and increasingly annoying now. However, with my moan over, I am still optimistic that we will finish 3rd (for now at least). I have barely mention Wolves in my blog. They started off in some fashion and were in contention for the title. However their current form has seen them pick up 4 points since September. The stats are against Wolves, but despite their last away win coming in the opening week, I’m sure they are very confident giving Chelsea’s current form. One to watch: Juan Mata – been fairly quiet recently so is due a good game and a time to shine
Arsenal v Fulham: 2-0
Alan Shearer and Thierry Henry stand in the way of Robin van Persie setting a new Premier League record. That is scoring the most league goals in a calendar year. He needs 6 goals to surpass Shearer’s record of 36 and has 7 games left of the year. I’m sure he will get that on his current scoring rate that sees him scoring 13 in the first 12 matches of the season. An amazing stat shows that Fulham have won 12 of their last 101 away matches and at the Emirates they have never won. Doesn’t look good does it? Mark Schwarzer currently shares the golden glove with Micael Vorm of Swansea (who would have predicted that). For me I cannot see any other result than an Arsenal win, but who listens to my predictions. One to watch: Robin van Persie – player of the season for me and where will Arsenal be without him
Liverpool v Manchester City: 0-3
One of England’s most successful team are up against one of England’s new stars which has the potential to be a great game, when they play on Sunday. City will be aiming for a club record 8th victory in a row and go into the game with no fresh new injuries, apart from Carlos Tevez who has been linked with a move AC Milan in order to end his Eastland nightmare. Liverpool are now level on points with Chelsea after their 2-1 win at Stamford Bridge and will be hoping to continue their incredible home form, with Kenny Dagliesh, in which they have only lost once in 17 games at Anfield. One to watch: Luis Suarez – he is due a goal as he hasn’t scored a league goal since October 15th in the Merseyside derby

It has scenes compared with winning the World Cup and for the team; the feeling was probably the same. In case you missed the story American Samoa, the team that is ranked 204th (in other words last) and the team who lost 31-0 to Australia, won their first ever international match against Tonga. It was a very close game but in the end it finished 2-1 to Samoa. A well deserved victory for them. Well done!
