ARSENAL vs ASTON VILLA
broken leg victim Eduardo is out, so Nicklas Bendtner is expected to partner Emmanuel Adebayor. Abou Diaby (calf) should return, but Kolo Toure is not yet fully recovered from a knee injury, while Emmanuel Eboue is suspended.
Olof Mellberg looks to be winning his battle back from an ankle injury, having returned to training, in time to face Arsenal. Patrik Berger has recovered from a hamstring problem and could be named among the Villa substitutes.
Arsenal 2-0
LS: DRAW
WEST HAM vs CHELSEA
Alan Curbishley has Bowyer and Etherington still out: seven goals so far this season have come from one of these two, so it's a major problem. Scott Parker will also miss this one. Bobby Zamora is fighting to be fit in time.
Avram Grant has an almost fully fit squad to choose from, but that is where his problems begin. Will he leave out Makelele or Mikel? Lampard or Ballack? Joe Cole or Anelka? His team selection is vital, and after getting it horribly wrong last weekend, Grant finds himself under pressure to make the right choices.
1/2 goals
LS: west ham win
FULHAM vs MAN UNITED
Midfielder Simon Davies is likely to return to the Fulham side after suspension. Striker Diomansy Kamara could find himself named as a substitute. Litmanen is out injured, while Andreasen is suspended.
United have slight doubts about the fitness of defenders Vidic and Evra. Otherwise, Sir Alex can chose from a full strength squad but is likely to hold back his more senior players for the Lyon test in midweek. Giggs should recover from his leg injury suffered against Lyon but should expect to be kept in reserve.
Man United 1-2
LS: DRAW
BIRMINGHAM vs TOTTENHAM
Martin Taylor starts his 3 match ban. Raidi looks like stepping in as a replacement. Liam Ridgewell is a doubt, while Kapo is out.
Woodgate is a big doubt after twisting his ankle. Gilberto is ready for a starting spot. Bent, O'Hara and Huddlestone could be in place for a start as well, as manager Ramos makes his selections with the UEFA tie midweek in mind.
2/3 goals
LS: H-D
