Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester United: A massive game between two major powers. United currently sit in 1st place, 7 points ahead of challengers Man City. Spurs currently in 4th are in a rich run of form, beat the Reds earlier in this season and will be looking for a similar result to legitimize their status.

Manchester City vs Fulham: Manchester City will look to continue their pursuit of Manchester United and retaining their title. They should pick up all three points as the face a Fulham side devoid of emotion and direction floundering towards the wrong end of the table.

Chelsea vs Arsenal; A fixture that was once one of the most celebrated on the EPL calendar that has lost it’s luster in the last few years as both clubs have lost their way somewhat. Chelsea struggling with management issues with the unpopular Rafael Benitez at the helm are in third place, but are playing under a dark cloud. Arsenal currently in 6th place are in the midst of their worse campaign in the 15 year Arsene Wenger era. Both teams need a win to convince their fans.

Newcastle United vs Reading; Newcastle after a fine start, now find themselves 5th from bottom and dropping fast. They face fellow strugglers Reading in a 6 point affair. Reading comes into the game full of confidence after their dramatic 3-2 win over West Brom last week. Newcastle need an injection of new signings as their squad has been ravaged by injuries and poor form.

Wigan Athletic vs Sunderland: Sunderland are on good run following last weeks big win over West Ham, however Wigan will feel they have a good opportunity to pick up all 3 points.

Swansea City vs Stoke City: Two teams that are playing well and getting results with two completely different approaches to the game. Swansea with the possession oriented game, versus Stokes hustle and bustle, get the ball early style.

Liverpool vs Norwich City:
Liverpool played a strong 2nd half against Man United last week and will need that performance this week. Norwich have come off the boil of late and have not won a game in the last 5, losing 4 and staring 1.
