The Table The Fixtures It's looking like a tasty round of footy lads and I hope you'll join me in watching a few of the games. First up we have an exciting relegation scrap between newcomers Burnley and Manchester United in what we all hope to be another hilarious chapter in United's fall from grace. Sadly United were able to pick up the excellent Di Maria who won't fix their defence deficiencies but should give their midfield a much needed boost. Burnley have had a tough start to their Premier League return but haven't played that badly and could upset a few teams this season. Ewar Woowar's Betting Tip: 1:2 United City should make short work of Stoke at home while Newcastle should get their first three points against a Palace side now managed by terrible manager Neil Warnock. We have two potential relegation candidates up next with QPR against Sunderland in what ought to be the most disappointing game this weekend. QPR, like United, are trying to play 3-5-2 and having the same sort of success. Sunderland are a bad side that makes bad signings but should escape the drop again due to the terribleness of other teams. Jozy will not score. Swansea have made a good start to the season under inexperienced manager Garry Monk and should make it three wins from three when they play at home to West Brom. West Ham play Southampton in a game that could really go either way. With West Ham missing Nolan Fat Sam my have to resort to playing actual football which, surprisingly, West Ham are capable of doing given some of the talent they have at their disposal. Southampton have lost a huge amount of talent this window but still boast a decent side. Whether they continue to push for Europa places will depend a lot on their newcomers but it's too early to say if they're any good or not. Ewar Woowar's Betting Tip: 1:1 The last game of the evening sees us at Goodison as Everton play Chelsea. Everton away is always an incredibly difficult fixture and Chelsea won't be helped by the fact that they're missing their number one striker in Costa. Everton have had trouble closing games out though and Chelsea have so much quality in their squad that they'll punish any mistake at the back. Ewar Woowar's Betting Tip: 1:1 Tomorrow we have Villa at home to Hull. Villa are awful on paper and should theoretically be in a relegation scrap this season but you never really know what you're going to get with Lambert. We then have what is arguably the tie of the round with Tottenham hosting Liverpool at White Hart Lane. Liverpool thrashed Spurs twice last season and we all had a good laugh but Tottenham have looked sharp under Pochettino so far and this should be a much tighter game this time around. Liverpool will be missing both their starting fullbacks that played against City but this could arguably be a good thing as their possible replacements (Manquillo and Enrique) are both more defensively sound. Balotelli is likely to make his debut and I personally will hoping he does cool things on the pitch instead of bad things. Ewar Woowar's Betting Tip: 2:2 Finally Leicester play Arsenal at home in what could be a potentially exciting match as Leicester have looked the best of the promoted teams and should back themselves to stay in the league given their competition. Given that Arsenal will be without a recognised striker it might be a good time to play them. In saying that Arsenal should have far to much quality for Leicester and pick up their second win of the season. Ewar Woowar's Betting Tip: 0:3

Good OP, but what's up with the fixture times? I'm guessing Chelsea will drop their first points today, Everton away is pretty difficult. Sadly, I can't see United losing against Burnley, hilarious as it would be.

Thankfully Liverpool, being a cool and good team, means we tend to be on earlier on the weekend or a civilized time (7am-9am) on Monday and Tuesday morning.

I also have a feeling that Man United are going to have another poor result this weekend, Burnley are going to be well up for a local derby and Turf Moor will be bouncing. Burnley to win, both teams to score, Danny Ings to score at any time is my lock of the week

fully expecting the Big Angelman to score 4 (four) goals failing this, two days still remain to spend £90m on ronald and fat ronald, they can play centre-back

Think you're wrong about Jozy scoring today, QPR might just be poo poo enough for him to slip through

Mark Noble will cry on the pitch and cut an England tattoo into himself before tearfully declaring for Ireland.

United away was easier than Burnley at home. Big Jutkiewicz to score the winner.

More worried about the midfield. Fletcher is the best we have to partner Di Maria with.... in a midfield two, with Mata staying further up the pitch. I'm not expecting a win today either. And we're lucky enough to still have Valencia and Young as the best wing-back options... gently caress this poo poo.
