Swansea v Norwich: Draw
Stoke v Aston Villa: Draw
Manchester United v Manchester City: Manchester United
Swansea have experienced a dip in form after their Carling Cup victory over Bradford in February, having only won once since then. They've lost three consecutive fixtures now and travelling to Norwich will be seen as an opportunity to regain the form they were accustomed to in the first half of the season. Carrow Road has had the least amount of goals scored this season in the Premier League and with Michu yet to score an away goal in the league this year this could be a low-scoring affair. There have been some exciting meetings between the two sides in the past, but we think that this could well be a stalemate, with both sides having struggled to gain points in the last few weeks.
Stoke haven't won a match since February and they've gained the fewest points in the Premier League in their last five games. Aston Villa, only four points behind the Potters, travel to Stoke looking to clamber out of the relegation zone - but with the pressure to perform on both teams we foresee a draw in this fixture too. There was a time when Stoke were providing their fans with weekly stalemates on the back of a fantastic home record - we feel a draw this weekend will allow Stoke the opportunity to end the season with some credibility.
Manchester United have been bundled out of the FA Cup and the Champions League in recent weeks, meaning their real accomplishment this season will be their winning of the Premier League. As our attention turns to the end of their succesful campaign you can expect United to want to end their season as strongly as possible, which would have to include a win over Manchester City. We expect both teams to score, but we do expect Manchester United to be the outright winners over the course of the ninety.
