Archived tips :

Birmingham City vs Arsenal
Shooter : Birmingham's season seems to be running out of steam and their comfy top-10 placing means they might be short of motivation, something Arsenal won't be lacking as they're right in the title race and should run out winners at St Andrew's. I'll say 0-2
Prediction : Away Win    Actual Result : Draw
Looter : Blues have seen much of their mid-season form slip away as their midweek defeat at Blackburn proved. Arsenal, meanwhile, are gunning for title glory and will need maximum points here, which I think they'll get - just. 0-1
Prediction : Away Win    Actual Result : Draw
Bolton vs Man Utd
Shooter : Bolton have found some home form under Coyle to pull clear of the dropzone, but United have far too much class and experience to be troubled by a trip to The Reebok. Fergie's men tend to do well here, so I can't see anything other than an away win, possibly 1-3.
Prediction : Away Win    Actual Result : Away Win
Looter : Bolton are closing in on safety and their chances could be boosted in this one if Wayne Rooney misses out. Sir Alex will probably rely on Berbatov to earn the points, but I have a sneaky feeling the Trotters will bag a point. 1-1
Prediction : Draw    Actual Result : Away Win
Chelsea vs Aston Villa
Shooter : The pressure is certainly starting to build on Carlo Ancelotti, and I don't think it'll be eased after this tricky fixture. Villa showed at Old Trafford and Anfield that they relish these big rumbles on the road, so I'm backing them to pinch a point in a 1-1 or 2-2 draw.
Prediction : Draw    Actual Result : Home Win
Looter : A huge game for both clubs and made more significant by the fact they meet in the FA Cup semi-finals next month. Blues showed in midweek that they're back in business and with Villa suffering with a few key injuries, I think it'll be Blues sitting pretty at the top come Saturday. 3-1
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Home Win
Hull City vs Fulham
Shooter : To quote Michael Jackson, 'this is it' for Iain Dowie's Hull if they're to get any momentum behind their survival bid this season. I actually rate Dowie, and although he's coming up against the masterful Roy Hodgson, I think the Tigers' desperation to win will see them get their claws into all three points. 2-1
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Home Win
Looter : It's almost win or bust now as far as Hull are concerned, especially given Wolves' revival. Fulham were beaten at Spurs in midweek and with their Europa League quarter-final looming large next week, they may have their eyes fixed elsewhere. A narrow home win. 2-1
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Home Win
West Ham vs Stoke City
Shooter : I genuinely fear for the Hammers after the midweek defeat at home by Wolves, and Stoke are not the sort of opponents to let their mid-table safety soften their will to win. I'm not sure the hosts have enough scrappers in their first XI - and if the Potters get an early lead I'm backing them to defend it like lions. 0-1
Prediction : Away Win    Actual Result : Away Win
Looter : The pressure is mounting on West Ham and anything less than a win here could be disastrous. But pressure can do funny things, and with Stoke having nothing really but pride to play for, I can see the Potters plundering an away win. 1-2
Prediction : Away Win    Actual Result : Away Win
Wolves vs Everton
Shooter : Wolves are not the toughest but to crack on home turf but their confidence will be sky high after their win at Upton Park. The Toffees are in pretty good nick themselves, though, and with Arteta seemingly back to his best I'm going for a 2-2 draw.
Prediction : Draw    Actual Result : Draw
Looter : The Molineux men have hit form at a key time but face in Everton a side buzzing after their midweek win at Man City. It's a tricky one to call, but I've been impressed by Everton and I think they'll edge a win here. 1-2
Prediction : Away Win    Actual Result : Draw
Derby vs Leicester
Shooter : This should be a belter of an East Midlands derby, and you rarely get draws in these fixtures so I'm going to put my nuts on the line and back Pearson's Fantastic Foxes, who are looking good for the play-offs, to rumble the Rams and take all three points. 1-2
Prediction : Away Win    Actual Result : Home Win
Looter : A tough-to-call East Midlands derby, with neither side in particularly impressive form. Leicester were beaten at home by Reading in midweek but have tended to bounce back from disappointments this season and they may do it again here. 0-2
Prediction : Away Win    Actual Result : Home Win
Norwich vs Leeds United
Shooter : Where did it all go wrong for Leeds? It seems their FA Cup heroics took their eye off the league ball and they now need to get to specsavers as their focus is all over the show. Norwich are on an unstoppable march to the title and it won't stop here. 3-0
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Home Win
Looter : The wheels appear to have fallen off the Leeds promotion push so a trip to leaders Norwich is not exactly welcome. The Canaries boast one of the best home records in the league but I think we'll see a reaction from Leeds and they could bag a welcome point. 2-2
Prediction : Draw    Actual Result : Home Win
Burnley vs Blackburn
Shooter : Rovers' away record is rotten but there won't be a better time to improve it than in this Lancashire hotpot, as the Clarets have lost their mojo saw Laws took the reins. The hosts are clinging on to survival hope by their fingertips, though, and I think the Turf Moor roar will stir them on to a massive three points. 2-1
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Away Win
Looter : Sunday lunchtime's game is a real Lancashire hot-pot with both sides eager to give their fans much to smile about. I think this will be quite a tentative, cagey affair, and if David Dunn misses out for Blackburn as feared, then I'll back the Clarets to pick up a point. 0-0
Prediction : Draw    Actual Result : Away Win
Liverpool vs Sunderland
Shooter : Darren Bent has found his scoring touch again and pulled the Cats clear of the dropzone, meaning they'll arrive at Anfield in fine fettle. The heat is really rising on Rafa, and Bruce will ensure the away fans have got plenty of beach balls in their pockets as Sunderland seek a double over the Reds. I fancy a shock 1-1 draw.
Prediction : Draw    Actual Result : Home Win
Looter : Your shoot4theloot decider this weekend. Sunderland have improved tons of late as their midweek draw at Villa proved. But they have a miserable record at Anfield and I think the class of Torres will just edge the home side to victory. 2-1
Prediction : Home Win    Actual Result : Home Win
