Tuesday, 16th March 2010
Kick Off : 19:45 GMT
Venue : Stamford Bridge, London

This Champions League match between Chelsea and Inter Milan will be played at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday 16th March 2010, kick-off set for 7.45pm. Chelsea will look to reach the last rounds of the tournament for the fourth straight season in the league format, that is if they pass the round of 16 first, while Inter Milan have been knocked out by English clubs the last two seasons. The winner will advance to the quarterfinals which start in a few weeks from now

The Blues will have to overcome the absence of several players who are out with injures including Michael Essien, Ashley Cole, Jose Bosingwa, Petr Cech, and Hilario. In fact, third string goalkeeper Danny Turnball will likely start for Chelsea having very limited experience in the UEFA Champions League.

Inter on the other hand, informs that Thiago Motta (thigh), Marko Arnautovic (flu) and Mario Balotelli (knee) will not play on Tuesday’s match.

Inter Milan’s is struggling at the moment. The side’s leading goalscorer is Alberto Diego Milito who scored the lone goal during Friday’s surprising 1-3 defeat at Catania. The top scorer for Inter in the Champions League is Dejan Stankovic with merely two scores in the competition. But nevertheless this is one of the most anticipated matches in the Champions League this season and Mourinho’s return to Stamford Bridge should be entertaining in the sidelines to say the least. The former Chelsea manager is rumored to be leaving Inter in the summer and expected to be back to manage one of the EPL sides for next season.

Chelsea have proven to be a solid team in the Champions League this year and a very strong one at home. They should win the match but will need at least a two goal difference or a 1-0 win in order to advance. The match could go into extra time if this is not the case but Chelsea should have enough attacking power to advance. Inter Milan has not shown the ability to play well lately or to progress far into the Champions League under Mourinho in recent years and their form in Serie A right now is not a good indication of their potential at the European level.

My prediction: 2-0

Sunday, 14th March 2010
Kick Off : 13:30 GMT
Venue : Old Trafford, Manchester

The English Premier League match between Manchester United and Fulham will be played at Old Trafford on Sunday 14th March 14 2010, kick-off set for 1:30 PM. Wayne Rooney is the tale of the fixture. He has been superb this season and his record is simply outstanding with 14 goals scored in his last ten appearances in all competitions. Fulham are an extremely well organized side but today only few defences can deal with Rooney at the moment. His Champions League performance against AC Milan in midweek was another typical example of how much better he is this season.

Rooney has worked on his aerial ability and now he is supported by the presence of Antonio Valencia providing him with excellent service and dangerous balls from the right; he’ll be a constant threat to Fulham this weekend. Rooney has also scored in each of his last six appearances at Old Trafford, an almost incredible total of eleven goals.
Manchester United reports that midfielder Michael Carrick returns to the squad for Sunday’s game. He will replace Paul Scholes, who has played twice in five days.

Fulham informs that Clint Dempsey is poised to make his first league appearance after two, healthy from his knee injury against Juventus on Thursday.

The Cottagers are unbeaten in their last five EPL but boss Roy hasn’t been able to solve the problems the team has faced on their away fixtures. Fulham won their opening match of the season at Fratton Park but have not been able to win on the road since. That is a total of 13 unsuccessful trips, so the chance of a major upset at Old Trafford is quite unlikely. A draw would not be bad as Fulham have drawn six times on their visits including their last two matches against Bolton and Sunderland.

However, a trip to Old Trafford especially when you consider Manchester United’s form and Premier League’s top scorer Wayne Rooney’s shape could be lethal. Fulham won their last two matches against United; both wins came at Craven Cottage. The Cottagers last won at Old Trafford back in October 2003. That remains their only league success there since 1963. The Red Devils have won all the other 13 league contests. Since the Cottagers victory in 2003, United have won all five EPL games at Old Trafford, scoring 15 goals and conceding three in the process.

My prediction: 2-0

Sunday, 14th March 2010
Kick Off : 12:05 GMT
Venue : Ibrox Park, Glasgow – UK

This quarter final game for the Scottish Cup features Rangers against Dundee United and it will be played on Sunday 14th March at Ibrox Park, kick off set for 12:05 PM. Rangers currently sit 13 points ahead of the second place at the top of the Scottish Premier League, following their victory over Kilmarnock at Rugby Park. The side will now take a two week break from SPL obligations as they get ready for Scottish Cup quarter final action against Dundee United and of course the League Cup final game against St Mirren.

Rangers were able to overcome St Mirren in the last round of the Scottish Cup thanks to a late Kris Boyd goal. The last time Dundee United visited Ibrox they were utterly destroyed by an impressive Rangers team who beat them seven to one. However, this game promises to be a more open affair as Dundee United will play attacking football as they look to amend for their recent hammering by the Gers.
Rangers reports that Madjid Bougherra should be back for this fixture after missing the past two games due to a hamstring injury. Kirk Broadfoot will be out.

Watch Rangers vs Dundee United Live : Rangers vs Dundee United

Dundee United informs that Andy Webster is out due to his on loan conditions. They will also be without Paul Dixon, Scott Robertson, Lee Wilkie and Danny Cadamarteri

The embarrassing 7-1 win defeat against Rangers back in December will still be in the minds of the players who will be eager to erase that memory. Currently third place in the SPL, United have continued working despite the loss of Craig Levein, with manager Peter Houston leading the side on a run of just 2 defeats in 12 matches. The team has also brought the return to top form of forgotten defender Andy Webster, as well as bringing to the first squad youth players such as Paul Dixon and the striker David Goodwillie.

However Rangers are in superb form at the moment, despite all the financial problems and should be too strong for them. The club has not lost a domestic game since last November. Both clubs have only met twice in the cup in the last twenty years. The last meeting between the two sides was back in 2001 when a David Hannah goal gave United a shock 1-0 victory over Dick Advocaat’s famed team who lost the treble that season to traditional rivals Celtic.

My prediction: 3-1

Saturday, 13th March 2010
Kick Off : 17:30 GMT
Venue : KC Stadium, Kingston-upon-Hull, Humberside

The English Premier League fixture between Hull City and Arsenal will be played on Saturday, 13 March 2010, at the KC Stadium, kick-off set for 5:30 PM. Hull City, are aiming to stop a run of three straight EPL defeats. The tigers are now 19th in the table and they are hoping to record only their second win since mid-November and their sixth overall in the League as they battle to maintain their top-flight status into a third consecutive campaign. The two sides evidently have sharply differing objectives, but both need to win and neither can really afford to lose.

A trip to Hull is not something Arsenal will look forward to. There is plenty of ill-feeling between the two sides and the Tigers show a formidable home record. Since mid-September, only Manchester United have managed to win at the KC Stadium and Hull have taken points in their two most recent games competition games.
The Hull City Tigers report that Hunt (foot) is doubtful and Gardner (ankle) and Ashbee (knee) are injured and out of the game.

Watch Hull City vs Arsenal Live : Hull City vs Arsenal

The Gunners report that Campbell (calf), Rosicky (groin) and Sagna (ankle) are doubtful. Fábregas (hamstring), Gallas (calf), Van Persie and Djourou (knee) are out.

Arsene Wenger feels quite glad that Arsenal are finally beginning to see the best of Emmanuel Eboue, whom the Gunners boss firmly believes can become a complete player in the near future. The Ivory Coast international scored a fine goal in the midweek 5-0 thrashing of Porto as a powerful Arsenal booked their place in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Eboue has had an often difficult relationship with some of the Gunners’ faithful, most notably when he had to be substituted after going to the pitch as a substitute himself, against Wigan in December 2008. He walked off the field to sarcastic cheers.

That incident though, is now very much in the past for the jovial African player, who has since then found an almost cult status among the Gunners followers after becoming one of the most consistent performers in the squad. Wenger believes that Eboue’s presence is a great addition, both on the pitch and while on the training ground. He remembered that Eboue was criticized last year and came back with the right attitude this season, being able to display the right performances and making people change their opinion about his skills.

My prediction: 1-2

Saturday, 13th March 2010
Kick Off : 15:00 GMT
Venue : Stamford Bridge, London

The Premier League match between Chelsea and West Ham United will be played at Stamford Bridge on Saturday 13th March 2010, kick-off set for 3:00 PM. The Blues can return to the top of the EPL table for at least 24 hours with a victory and will sure think of this as an opportunity to get over their last month’s somewhat underwhelming form, even if next Tuesday’s visit of José Mourinho and Internazionale might be something of a distraction. Controversial skipper John Terry stated “We are going for three trophies…Only winning will do.”

The battered West Ham side have not won at Stamford Bridge in eight years, but Gianfranco Zola’s side, just three points above the relegation zone, cannot afford to be defeated and will aspire to inflict Chelsea their first back-to-back Premier League defeats since May 2006. To achieve that, the Hammers will have to play a perfect game on Saturday.
Chelsea reports Bosingwa and Essien (both knee), Carvalho (hamstring), Cech (calf), A Cole (ankle) as injured.

Watch Chelsea vs West Ham Live : Chelsea vs West Ham

West Ham reports Da Costa as suspended and Boa Morte, Hines (both knee), Davenport (leg), Faubert (hamstring), Ilunga and Noble as injured.

The last time West Ham won an away game in the Premier League was back in August of last year when they beat the Wolves 2-0. Ever since that game they have struggled away from home and this has been their critical problem and the reason as to why they are near the bottom of the table in the League. West Ham goes to Stamford Bridge with former Chelsea legend Gianfranco Zola under pressure with two new team owners looking for quick results to turn the club round from serious decline and remain in the English Premier League. For Zola will not be easy.

In the contests against Chelsea, West Ham have played 5 away games, drawn 2 and lost 3 of them. They face a Chelsea side and who knows very well what’s required to win on Saturday and for the rest of the Premier League campaign. It’s time to close the deal for Ancelotti and with Mourinho’s Inter Milan around the corner on Tuesday these two games will be pivotal to the Blues’ season. Ancelotti has come under fire lately after the defeats at Inter Milan and especially Man City and rightly so as many observers think. Thus the focus for Saturday’s fixture is firmly in getting the three points in dispute.

My prediction: 3-1

Thursday, 11th March 2010
Kick Off : 20:05 GMT
Venue : Stadio Olimpico di Torino, Italy

The Europa League fixture between Juventus and Fulham will be played in the Stadio Olimpico di Torino on Thursday 11th March 2010, kick-off set for 8:05 PM. Many injuries have eft Juve coach Alberto Zaccheroni short of midfield options so Mohamed Sissoko and Claudio Marchisio could be called to the first squad despite the fact both are carrying some problems. Interestingly enough, Zaccheroni only beat Fulham’s boss Roy Hodgson once during the three tours the 62-year-old spent in Italy in charge of Inter Milan (two times) and Udinese, so he will not be taking Fulham lightly.

“Roy is a very honest person,” the Italian declared adding that his teams are always successful without trying to do too much, they just keep it simple on the pitch. Thus Juventus “should never underestimate him and his team. He was worked hard and has fought hard as a manager.” Zaccheroni watched Fulham when they played Shakhtar Donetsk and considered them to be very strong.
Juventus reports that Gianluigi Buffon, Giorgio Chiellini and Amauri are out because of injury, while Felipe Melo is suspended.

Fulham informs that Nicky Shorey and Stefano Okaka, will be missing. Andy Johnson, Clint Dempsey and John Pantsil (all knee injuries) are out too.

Roy Hodgson arrived on Italy once again and and revealed he would love to return to the Italian Serie A scene. The current Fulham boss has already managed Udinese and Inter Milan and is not ruling out a return to Serie A. Hodgson, 62, will meet Inter’s owner Massimo Moratti next week. But He has a one-year rolling contract at Craven Cottage and insists he is settled in the EPL, having made club history by reaching the Europa League last 16. Fulham’s reward for that achievement is a glamourous tie against a famed Juventus side in Torino on Thursday.

Hodgson said about a possible return to Italy: “You never say never. Why not? If it happens, it happens. You never know what is going to happen in football.” He keeps fond memories of his two spells at Inter which were very enjoyable and filled with good times, most certainly amongst the people who worked there with him. This time though the Fulham fans will be hoping to see their manager focused on the task at hand, leaving aside his dreams of spending the next few years leading any of the big Italian teams now looking for their next season’s coach.

My prediction: 2-0

Wednesday, 10th March 2010
Kick Off : 19:45 GMT
Venue : Old Trafford, Manchester

This Champions League last 16 second leg fixture will be played in Old Trafford on Wednesday 10th March, kick-off set for 7:45 PM. Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has warned his side against overconfidence ahead of their Champions League second-leg game against AC Milan on Wednesday. Having emerged from San Siro with a 3-2 advantage, he knows that the Red Devils are in a great position to advance to the quarter-finals, but that victory is not guaranteed.

Ferguson said at his pre-match press conference that he did not think that United was very good at defending leads. His squad needs to play a normal game and that includes attacking. He sees the contest as a very difficult game and one they have to win. In paper at least it’s an open tie which should make for a great game of football. United will hope to kill the tie by going into attacking mode, but obviously AC Milan have to try and score too.
Man U reports that Wes Brown is out due to an injury sustained against Wolves, while Ryan Giggs (arm) and Michael Carrick (suspended) are also unavailable.

AC Milan informs that David Beckham could start on the bench for Milan on his Champions League return to Old Trafford.

Milan has a strong tradition in the Champions League and it is no secret that the team usually steps up on European fixtures. History speaks in favor of the Rossoneri, who have won all of their two-leg meetings facing a Premier League side. However, their inefficiency in front of goal made them pay in the first match. It has caused them to drop numerous points in Serie A too. Despite playing away to AS Roma on Saturday, Leonardo’s men dominated large periods of the game; however, the side showed a great deal of wastefulness in front of goal.

They were lucky in any case, because league leaders Inter Milan were held to a draw by Genoa the following day. This time around the Italian side will need to be aware of their qualities and play their own game. Even though they are confident ahead of the game, they can’t survive at Old Trafford if they can’t capitalize on their opportunities on the attack. Goalkeeper Christian Abbiati will need to stay alert while Alessandro Nesta and Thiago Silva must guard the in-form Wayne Rooney at very close range.

My prediction: 3-1

Tuesday, 9th March 2010
Kick Off : 19:45 GMT
Venue : Emirates Stadium, London

The Champions League last 16 second leg game between Arsenal and FC Porto will be played at The Emirates Stadium on Tuesday 9th March 2010, kick-off set for 7:45 PM. This is yet another huge game for the Gunners. This time is in the context of the Champions League as Arsenal try to overcome a 2-1 deficit and win over Porto to move into the quarter-finals. Arsenal will have to do it without their leader Cesc Fabregas, while fit-again Manuel Almunia will start in goal. Sol Campbell has also recovered from a groin problem that kept him out of the lineup during the weekend.

With Arshavin, Nasri and Walcott all healthy and ready, Arsene Wenger will have a good squad to send to the pitch. Wenger is sure that there’s always something new in his side’s so he thinks they can innovate and change history. The team has a good chance to make a name in Europe, because they are very young and in a strong position and, of course, they want to win. Scoring away from home is still a massive advantage under UEFA rules and that’s why we are confident we can do it.
For the Gunners skipper Cesc Fabregas will not play the game. Sami Nasri is set to move into the Spaniard’s role while Sol Campbell is set to replace William Gallas.

Watch Arsenal vs FC Porto Live : Arsenal vs FC Porto

In FC Porto news, Colombia forward Falcao, Argentine Marian Gonzalez, Uruguay’s Cristian Rodriguez and Brazil international Hulk are all ready to go.

Interesting fact, Porto have progressed in the last 24 two-legged rounds in which they were defending an advantage away from home. Arsenal have only managed to overturn this type of only once in nine attempts. But Porto have lost all six of their games played in London including a 1-0 loss at Chelsea in this season’s group stage and a 4-0 defeat by Arsenal last season.

Porto are not an easy team to beat though, however Arsenal’s speed and passing ability should be the deciding factor in the match. That away goal in Portugal by Sol Campbell was huge and ultimately could be the difference. It is not likely that Arsenal can shut Porto out, but ultimately they will create enough chances to score. The only potential problem for Arsenal is to create a lot of chances in front of Porto’s goal without converting them, hopefully that will not be the case.

My prediction: 3-1

Monday, 8th March 2010
Kick Off : 20:00 GMT
Venue : DW Stadium, Wigan

The English Premier League match between Wigan and Liverpool will be played at DW Stadium on Monday 8th March 2010, kick-off set for 8:00 PM. Wigan has a quite bad record against Liverpool, although they are likely to fight for at least a point from this contest than come off the pitch empty-handed. It has been a season of struggle for the Latics, but there have been occasions where Roberto Martinez’s team have got their act together and put up a good effort against qualified opponents trying to survive the season and remain in the Premier League.

Scoring goals has clearly been a problem and it was more evident since Hugo Rodallega’s lost his ability to do some damage against the opposing goalkeepers. The Colombian hast yet to find the net for the first time since his last goal in a match played during the last Boxing Day. On onday Wigan manager Roberto Martinez expects to have an almost fully-fit squad ready and waiting for the visit of Liverpool.
Charles N’Zogbia should overcome his knee injury in time for the match at the DW Stadium. Paul Scharner (groin) will play and Steven Gohouri is doubtful.

Watch Wigan vs Liverpool Live : Wigan vs Liverpool

Liverpool reports that Glen Johnson is set for a comeback. Daniel Agger’s knee injury last weekend is unlikely to keep him out and Sotirios Kyrgiakos will return too.

Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez is warning his players against complacency when they have to face Wigan on Monday night by reminding them of last December’s defeat at Portsmouth. Having beaten the Latics three days before, the Reds then confidently traveled to Fratton Park and played against the English Premier League’s bottom side only to be shockingly beaten by 2-0. But Liverpool have lost just once since then and Benitez’s side have been able to haul themselves back into the race for a Champions League qualification.

A win at the DW Stadium on Monday would lift them back into fourth place, as the weekend’s FA Cup action meant that none of their major rivals for the Champions League qualification had league fixtures to play during the weekend. As usual the question is what side will appear on the pitch for the Reds, the one that is painfully unable to score goals or the squad that led by skipper Steven Gerrard shows a quality deserving of much more than fighting for the fourth place on the table.

My prediction: 1-2
