Yahoo Fantasy Week 37

TEAM NEWS

Wenger has more-or-less confirmed Mr Vermaelen will start! Koscielny's injury means he'll partner Djourou and I'm pleased to see him back. Clichy is back too, but Fabregas & Nasri are doubts and Diaby & Rosicky are out.

Ancelotti didn't reveal all in his press conference, so it's probably best to avoid the possibly injured David Luiz - Alex could continue. He did say Torres will definitely start, but no details on whether this will be alongside or instead of Drogba. Bosingwa will miss the rest of the season, while Zhirkov is a doubt.

Interesting stuff from Sir Alex, as he suggested the very reasonably priced Kuszczak could get a start to give Van Der Sar a rest. Unfortunately that was it, no news on injuries to the full-backs so no confirmation on Fabio, whether Valencia gets a rest/Nani starts or who plays up top. Berbatov scored 5 vs Blackburn earlier in the season, so he may get the nod.

Andy Carroll is pushing for a return to the Liverpool team, but Dalglish may be tempted to stick with the XI which performed so well at Fulham. The one saving grace for Carroll is the injury to Meireles, so he could squeeze back in alongisde Suarez, with Maxi & Kuyt on the wings, but don't be surprised to see them unchanged.

Spurs are ravaged by injury and really fear we could get a bit of a pasting this weekend. No Bale, Gallas, Assou Ekotto, Gomes (phew), Jenas, Palacios or Hutton, while Modric & Huddlestone are doubts, and our 3 strikers are out of form. Bad times.

Man City & Stoke have the small matter of an FA Cup Final tomorrow, so we don't have a clue what'll happen in that game and how it may affect the line-ups in the rematch next Tuesday..

Sunderland are without Muntari, Anton Ferdinand, Craig Gordon, Titus Bramble, Michael Turner, David Meyler, Fraizer Campbell, Marcos Angeleri, Kieran Richardson, captain Lee Cattermole, Asamoah Gyan and Danny Welbeck - wow! Wolves are surely sensing this is their big chance to pull away from trouble, with an almost fully fit squad to choose from, including the returning Kevin Doyle.

Steven Reid and captain Chris Brunt are fit for West Brom.

Birmingham are without the suspended Graig Gardner and Liam Ridgewell, while Zigic remains out. Parnaby or Davies will come in to the defence alongside Carr, Johnson & Jiranek.

Blackburn's Phil Jones has recovered from a back problem, while Michel Salgado and David Dunn are also fit again.

Charles N'Zogbia is set to start for Wigan despite nursing a dead leg.

West Ham captain Scott Parker could play after returning to training, as could Upson.

Both Blackpool and Bolton are claiming near fully fit squads, with no new injuries to report.

Week 36 Yahoo Fantasy Football

MATCH PREVIEW:

Aston Villa v Wigan

Things are definitely looking up for Villa - six weeks ago people were predicting relegation for them, but they are starting to play well and manager Gerard Houllier is getting better too.

Wigan can't seem to string two results together. Their performances aren't ever that bad, but especially in away games they have 15-20-minute spells where they just implode.

I reckon Villa have enough matchwinners to edge it, and I'm afraid I think Wigan will go down.

Prediction: 2-1

Bolton v Sunderland

Well, Sunderland haven't got any strikers, so I can't see them scoring, but they are fine for points.

Bolton have been very up and down since their disappointment in the FA Cup semi-final, but they were superb in their last home game when they beat Arsenal.

It's been a good season for Bolton, who are improving under Owen Coyle. But this game's very much got an end-of-season feel to it.

Prediction: 2-0

Everton v Man City

Apart from their late defeat against Manchester United at Old Trafford, Everton have been on a fine run recently, even without some of their top players who are still injured.

Everton like playing Manchester City, too. There's a definite feeling of 'You've got loads of money, we've got none, have some of this' when they meet.

City boss Roberto Mancini would definitely take a draw if you offered it to him, because it gets them that much closer to the Champions League, and I think they'll get it.

Prediction: 1-1

Newcastle v Birmingham

Newcastle have been a bit up and down and since Andy Carroll left they haven't quite been the same, but that's certainly understandable.

In August, I think their main aim would have been to stay in the Premier League, so they've achieved that goal with two managers.

Birmingham will be fine, no danger of relegation for them I don't think. They've gone back to being hard to beat, which they were for most of last season.

Prediction: 2-0

West Ham v Blackburn

Blackburn's victory at home to Bolton last weekend was their most important result of the season and they look strong physically having got a few players back.

West Ham - where do you start? They've got quality, you can't argue with that, but there's just something not right at the club.

For a team at the bottom of the league, they are far too easy to play against and, at the moment, too easy to beat. I know they think they've got two more winnable games after Blackburn, but they need something on Saturday.

Prediction: 2-1

Tottenham v Blackpool

Home win for me, though it doesn't look like being enough to get Tottenham into the top four. In the reverse fixture Spurs created umpteen chances and I can see the same happening again.

Blackpool will go to White Hart Lane and try to win the game, as they always think they can, but I can't see it.

I think Spurs and Liverpool should try and finish fifth and get in the Europa League if the top four is beyond them. You're better off qualifying and then deciding how to play it. If you want to play a scratch team and rest your stars, you're entitled to do that.

Prediction: 3-1

Wolves v West Brom

Crikey, this is a match of hatred, isn't it? With a derby you can never be sure what's going to happen, but you can guarantee there will be a concerted effort and a little bit more from the home team in their position.

West Brom are safe now, but there's no doubt they will be desperate to win the game as well.

I think it's going down to the last day of the season for Wolves and it's looking ominous for the three 'Ws'. It'll be a very exciting last day, could be a classic - unless your team is involved.

Prediction: 2-1

Stoke v Arsenal

Stoke will be physical as they always are with every team, not just Arsenal, but there might be a bit more because of all the accusations that have been flying around for a while now between the teams.

You would imagine Stoke will have one eye on the FA Cup final a week later - that would only be natural.

Arsenal's big decisions are going to come in the summer when they decide who to keep, who to chuck out and who to try and bring to the club.

Prediction: 1-1

Man Utd v Chelsea

It's fantastically poised, isn't it? If Chelsea can go to Old Trafford and win, they will be in the driving seat because their goal difference would be better than United's.

For me, Chelsea have put together a very, very good run under no pressure, because no-one expected them to win the league a few weeks ago. But they've also done it without playing that well.

I don't see United losing, though. If you offered Sir Alex Ferguson a draw he'd take it, and I think that's what they'll get.

If Chelsea are choosing between Didier Drogba and Fernando Torres up front, it's easy - Drogba every time.

Prediction: 1-1

Fulham v Liverpool

Kenny Dalglish is like Midas at the moment - everything he touches seems to turn into gold.

This is one of those games where there is no pressure at all, so both teams can go out and play, just enjoy themselves.

Fulham have had a very good end to the season and it's incredible to think some people were calling for Mark Hughes's head at the end of last year, when he was without Bobby Zamora and other key players. Ridiculous.

Prediction: 1-1
