Archived tips :

Blackburn vs Portsmouth
Shooter : Both of these sides were beaten 3-1 last time out and will probably feel one more point is enough for survival, so I reckon this will be a pretty cagey affair. Rovers have only won 5 at Ewood all season so I'm going for a 0-0 or 1-1 draw.
Prediction : Draw    Actual Result : Home Win
Looter : A win for either side here will guarantee survival, though if other results go their way, a draw may also be enough. Neither side is playing especially good football at the moment and a point apiece would probably sit fine with both teams. 0-0
Prediction : Draw    Actual Result : Home Win
Arsenal vs Chelsea
Shooter : These two London giants will be comparing sob stories before kick-off having both seen their European dreams ended earlier this week, and I can't see the incentive of trying to pip Liverpool to second being enough to lift Chelsea spirits. Arshavin's return will give the Gunners a boost but I think it'll be a stalemate. 1-1
Prediction : Draw    Actual Result : Away Win
Looter : There's nothing left for the Gunners to play for after their European lesson from Manchester United in midweek. There's not too many tougher assignments in the league than Chelsea, but given the Blues will not have too much focus on the league either, a derby draw looks likely. 1-1
Prediction : Draw    Actual Result : Away Win
Man Utd vs Man City
Shooter : Pundits have run out of plaudits praising United's fantastic midweek display at The Emirates, where Ronaldo ran riot. City won at Everton recently and are in decent form themselves, but I just can't see them stopping the United juggernaut at Old Trafford.
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Home Win
Looter : United will still have painful memories of last season's Munich Anniversary derby defeat, so will be keen to make amends. Add into the fact that they're now hitting their peak form and City are woeful travellers - how can you look beyond a home win. 2-0
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Home Win
Bolton vs Sunderland
Shooter : The Trotters may have run out of steam in recent times but they know that one more win will secure top-flight safety, and thankfully they are facing a Black Cats in horrendous form under the clueless Sbragia. It's got to be a comfortable home win, probably 2-0.
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Draw
Looter : The Black Cats have been in miserable form and looked a little disinterested during last week's home defeat to Everton. They'll certainly have to match Bolton's work-rate if they're to get anything out of the game, but I can't see that happening and there'll be more discontent if, as I expect them to do, they lose this one. 2-1
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Draw
Everton vs Tottenham
Shooter : Tottenham have the meanest defensive record on home soil (9 conceded in 18), but can't keep the goals out on the road (32 in 17) so the Toffees will fancy their chances of finding the net having easily scored two at Sunderland. I'm going for a 2-2 draw.
Prediction : Draw    Actual Result : Draw
Looter : Harry Redknapp has already enjoyed a 3-0 win here with Pompey earlier in the season, but the Toffees are a different proposition these days and look a tough nut to crack. Steven Pienaar is finally emerging from the shadows of Cahill and Arteta and I'd back him to help engineer a home win for Moyes' boys. 2-1
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Draw
Fulham vs Aston Villa
Shooter : Fulham have been fantastic at home all season and know they could finish in seventh if they keep that form going. Villa finally enjoyed victory again on Monday, when the Tigers were tamed, but I think Roy's boys might just bank all three points here. 2-1
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Home Win
Looter : Villa finally ended their abysmal run of 11 games without a win against Hull on Monday, but they were far from convincing in doing so. The Cottagers are rock solid at home, so shouldn't lose - but I'd expect Martin O'Neill to return to the Midlands with a point. 1-1
Prediction : Draw    Actual Result : Home Win
Hull City vs Stoke City
Shooter : Hull's horrendous slump in form has seen them slip to 17th place, and the bottom three have them firmly in their sights following Monday's defeat at Villa Park. Stoke have struggled for motivation in recent games but I think they'll fancy this and earn a 1-0 away win.
Prediction : Away Win    Actual Result : Away Win
Looter : The Potters have "been on the beach" these past couple of weeks, so Tony Pulis will demand a win to make absolutely certain of their Prem survival. Hull probably won't get a better chance to boost their own escape bid, but I can't see them doing so and I'll tip up only Stoke's second away triumph of the season. 0-1
Prediction : Away Win    Actual Result : Away Win
West Brom vs Wigan Ath
Shooter : Albion have been rockbottom for most of the season but are somehow hanging in there and need 2 wins from their last 3 games to have any survival hope. This is a must-win game for them, while Wigan have little to play for, so I'm going for a 2-1 home win.
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Home Win
Looter : West Brom's bid for survival may just have come too late, but they'll definitely be fired up for this one as they truly are drinking in the Last Chance Saloon. Latics are comfortable in mid-table, so I'll tip a narrow home win. 1-0
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Home Win
West Ham vs Liverpool
Shooter : Liverpool have had a fantastic league campaign, losing just twice all season so far and winning 11 times on the road. Hammers fans haven't seen many draws at Upton Park (just 2 in 17 games) and Zola's men are already thinking of their holiday destinations. 0-2
Prediction : Away Win    Actual Result : Away Win
Looter : The Hammers proved their fighting spirits with a 1-0 win at Stoke last week, but it may take more than that to stop a Liverpool side intent on pushing Man United all the way for the title. Only a win will do for the Reds, and with Gerrard, and most likely Torres back, a win is what they'll get - just!! 1-2
Prediction : Away Win    Actual Result : Away Win
Rangers vs Celtic
Shooter : This game could decide the destiny of the SPL trophy, and I've got a feeling the blue side of Glasgow will be celebrating this weekend. A draw is not really good enough for the Gers, who trail the champions by a point, so I think they'll go for it and secure a 1-0 win.
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Home Win
Looter : You can't even emphasise exactly how important this match is in terms of deciding the SPL title, with a victory for either side surely making them favourites. The Bhoys are without the suspended Scott Brown, and with the Gers in decent nick, I'll back them to scrape a tension-filled win. 1-0
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Home Win
