NEWCASTLE over birmingham at 1.53
Newcastle are home again after failing to get into the champions league by losing to Partizan Belgrade on penalties. Big disappointment as that was one of their major focuses this year after a good showing last year. Therefore they will do with what they have left (EUFA CUP) and potentially win the premiership (unlikely). They have had a bad start to the season going 0-1-1 and will need to definetly improve on that. Newcastle will be without Woodgate this game due to injury.
Birmimgham on the other hand, have had a better start to the season with a 1-1-1 record. Interestingly enough they are yet to concede a goal this season and are also yet to score from open play. Striker Christophe Dugarry is still out after knee surgery while Darren Purse is struggling to shake off a cold

The corresponding fixture last year between these two teams was Newcastle 1-0. Next also won their game away. I believe Newcastle will win this game relatively easy but have trouble scoring. I expect a low scoring game.

NEWCASTLE WINS 1-0 OR 2-0

BLACKBURN +1 OVER chelsea at 2.05
Everybody is talking about Chelsea now as the team to beat but people dont realise that this team has yet to gel. Chelsea have played decent their first two games (got a bit lucky about Liverpool) and beat Leicester 2-1 only. Blackburn are doing relatively well this year. They were unlucky to lose to Man City 3-2 with a last minute goal. They thrashed Wolves 5-1 let's not forget. The same Wolves that lost to Man Utd 1-0 (although Man Utd were playing with a weaker team). As for Chelsea, they may have Crespo playing if they can get the documentation before Saturday 3:00 PM. William Gallas is doubtful with a neck strain. As for Blackburn, everyone is healthy.

The last time these two teams met, Blackburn won 2-1 and before that Chelsea won 3-2.

I expect this to be a much tougher game than most people expect, I also expect this game to be high scoring so I recommend the over 2.5/3 at evens.

LIVERPOOL over everton at 2.50
I know I shouldnt be taking Liverpool since they always screw up but I have to. They are a DECENT team with great defence (maybe they are better off in Italy) with a forward line that is very inconsistant. I need to see Owen and Heskey start playing well and the goals will start to flow. I think they've had enough time and they are now under pressure.

LIVERPOOL WINS 2-0, OWEN SCORES FIRST before he gets injured like the little girl he is

Bro, just in case it might make a difference, Newcastle will again play without Craig Bellamy and in the Liverpool game Heskey is struggling to make the game with some sort of knock.

A2345- I like the Arsenal- Man City game over as well. I think what has something to do with these two teams playing high scoring games with one another is each clubs home pitch is very fast. Man City has started out showing they can score some goals and Anelka has looked good up front.

Aresenal is dangerous on attack as usual and they won't have to worry about the village idiot (Sol Campbell) doing anything stupid. I think this will be a very entertaining and high scoring match.

Arsenal- Manchester City over 2 1/2 goals
