How Arsenal will STILL win the league (p1)

How Arsenal will STILL win the league (p1)

I wrote this back in January  to compare the fixtures of Manchester United and Arsenal.  I expected Arsenal to be level on points right now with United (which we will be if we win our game in hand). I predicted United to lose at both Liverpool and Chelsea but the defeat at Wolves was a bonus!

I expected the draw at Newcastle (albeit not the circumstances!) but not the home draw with Sunderland.  Chelsea are back in the race and are now included.

MATCH 30:

United v Bolton : Coyle´s men have picked up lately but United remain Kings at home. WIN ( = United Win and applies to each team and their fixtures)

WBA v Arsenal : West Brom are yet to be beaten since Di Matteo´s sacking and Arsenal will do well not to underestimate them. Must-win game though. WIN

Chelsea v City : Suffice to say that the losers will be out of the race. A duel between two Italian tacticians who cannot afford defeat will produce only one result. DRAW

M31:

West Ham v United : I said it back in January and I still believe it now - West Ham will beat United. They always raise their game against United (they also have a North-South rivalry going on) and crushed them 4-0 in the Carling Cup. The Hammers are a lot better and United do not travel well. DEFEAT

 

Arsenal v Blackburn : Blackburn are in turmoil right now with the inexperienced Kean expected to be sacked shortly by the Indians - Back The Gunners to cash in. WIN

Stoke v Chelsea: I hate to say it but Ugly Pulis is a tough nut at home. Chelsea are physical enough but a Stoke sliding dangerously close to the relegation zone could rugby tackle themselves to a point there. DRAW

M32:

United v Fulham: Hughes´men will be in comfort zone in April and United will win handsomely. WIN

Blackpool v Arsenal: Holloway´s side is in freefall since January. They can get the odd result at home but a good Arsenal side should fancy a win in the last “easy game” of the run-in. WIN

Cheslea v Wigan : Will Martinez still be there? It won´t matter as Wigan will be brushed aside at Stamford Bridge. WIN

Beginning of April:

United 66

Arsenal 66 (1 game less)

Chelsea 56 (1 game less)
