YTM Match Predictions Week 14

This week's YTM Premiership predictions are as follows:

Saturday

Arsenal vs Newcastle
Arsenal looked very good against Liverpool last Sunday, and are settling in well at their new home. Newcastle on the other hand are really struggling, and I doubt even the most optimistic fan will expect anything more than a defeat.
Dave's YTM Prediction: Home Win

Chelsea vs West Ham

Chelsea have another home game this weekend against struggling opposition. West Ham seem to have got back on their feet at least, but Chelsea's front line are on absolute fire, and I expect Drogba to net a few more tomorrow.
Dave's YTM Prediction: Home Win

Everton vs Bolton

Both of these teams started the season really well, but have recently fallen by the wayside. They are both desperate to get back on track, and a draw won't really do either of then any good, both having European aspirations. A draw it will be, and a dull one.
Dave's YTM Prediction: Goalless Draw

Man City vs Fulham

Fulham are playing well at the moment, and are grinding out some impressive results away from home. They got a point at Fratton Park last weekend, and will be looking for at least that against Man City on Saturday. Man City got a point last weekend, and I think that they will get the same here.
Dave's YTM Prediction: Score Draw

Boro vs Liverpool

Liverpool will be licking their wounds after the hiding they got from Arsenal last weekend. Benitez will be looking for an instant reply from his team. Boro however lose to rubbish teams and beat good ones. So I guess it is all down to whether you rate Liverpool. I do, so they will lose.
Dave's YTM Prediction: Home Win

Pompey vs Watford

Portsmouth were a bit fortunate to get a point last Saturday, and they will need to raise their game if they are to get the three points tomorrow against Watford. Boothroyd's men are holding their own in this division, and will be hoping that the loss of Marlon King is not too devastating. Tomorrow’s game will be too difficult, and Portsmouth will emerge with three points.
Dave's YTM Prediction: Home Win

Reading vs Charlton
I cannot believe that Charlton sacked Iain Dowie! There is obviously something that we do not know going on there. Anyway, exit Dowie, enter HONEYMOON PERIOD!! Charlton will get a point out of this game, and hopefully they will start to climb the table.
Dave's YTM Prediction: Score Draw

Sheff Utd vs Man Utd

Sheffield United stole a point from Bolton last weekend, and that will have raised their spirits no end. However, they do not need a reason to be up for this match. Man United will be looking to continue their good form, and I fully expect them to pick up another three points on the road.
Dave's YTM Prediction: Away Win

Sunday

Blackburn vs Spurs

Spurs were shocked last weekend, and after beating Chelsea, they fell to lowly Reading. Martin Jol will be looking for his team to get back on the horse and fast. Blackburn were beaten by Man United last weekend, but their performance was not too shabby. This will be a tough game, but I think Tottenham will have enough.
Dave's YTM Prediction: Away Win

Wigan vs Villa

Wigan have grafted their way to a fair few points so far this season, and will be looking to graft a few more from Villa tomorrow. Villa got their first away win of the season last week, and will be looking to add to that at the JJB. I think this will be a good game, and a point each will be a fair result.
Dave's YTM Prediction: Score Draw

That's your lot for this week. Good luck to your team, unless you are a Southampton fan.

Come on Leeds!
