Tottenham v Southampton: Tottenham
Swansea v Manchester City: Manchester City
Manchester United v Chelsea: Both teams to score.

33/10

Four of the last five fixtures for Tottenham have been 2-2 draws at the end of ninety minutes - and if the same is to be the case this weekend we'll be kicking ourselves having backed Spurs over their south coast vistors. 
          Tottenham can't afford to drop points this weekend after failing to take three away with them last weekend when they travelled to Wigan.  Having scored more than twice the number of goals at Saints have in their last five games we fancy Spurs to edge this fixture given the home advantage.  If Southampton are able to upset Spurs, or if Spurs end up drawing another fixture, the dream of Champions League football and a finish above Chelsea or Arsenal will be dead in the water.
          Manchester United have scored in every single domestic home game this season and Chelsea have scored in each of their last fourteen games.  If you think the result is too close to call then you may be more inclined to back both teams to score.  There have been some very entertaining matches between the two sides this season and this fixture is bound to be another given Chelsea's league position and intent.
          The other Manchester side will be licking their wounds in Wales this weekend against a Swansea side that hasn't managed to win a fixture in more than  two months.  Although there's still a lot to admire about Swansea's style of play we think City, building momentum in the run up to the FA Cup final, should outplay Laudrup's side with ease.

Premier League High Return Accumulator 4th May

Premier League High-Return Accumulator

Fulham v Reading: Draw
Manchester United v Chelsea: Draw
Norwich v Aston Villa: Draw
QPR v Arsenal: Arsenal

44/1

At this point in the season it's hard to argue in favour or placing high stakes on any league fixture; some teams have too much to play for and others have little reason to turn up at all.  We're looking towards fixtures that are the closest to call this weekend and hoping for draws.
          Fulham and Reading only managed to score one goal apiece last month, so a high scoring result at Craven Cottage would be an upset.  Both teams have struggled to gain points and this fixture could well be one of the least enjoyable of the weekend.  Either team edging this one, especially now that Reading's fate has been sealed and the pressure's off, would fail to surprise.  We're expecting a very close and potentially dull match.
          Aston Villa are fighting for their Premiership lives and probably wouldn't have wanted to be visiting Norwich at this stage in the season bearing their league posistion in mind.  The repeat fixture nearly ended in embarassment for Aston Villa and with no love lost between fans, Norwich will be hoping for a win over their previous manager to end their season.
          Five of Norwich's last seven home games in the Premier League have been draws, which offers a better probability than the high-street this weekend.  The Canaries are undefeated at home in the Premier League in 2013 and it'll be a huge win for Aston Villa if they can take all three points.  We think this is the unlikliest result and hope for a draw between the two sides.
          Manchester United, with little to play for, entertain Chelsea who are fighting for their place in the Champions League next season.  It's hard to see Chelsea bettering United, especially considering the reds' recent performance against Man City, but we do think there's a point to be played for at Old Trafford given the lift the club's been given having won a place in the Europa League final.  The talk of a return to Chelsea for Jose Mourinho seems to have lifted spirits and a refreshed Chelsea could well show up come Sunday.
          Arsenal cannot afford to lose.  QRP have nothing to play for as a team now, but individuals will want to show off their skills to potential suitors -  but that's the reason most of them joined the club in the first place.  It didn't work before and it won't work against Arsenal this weekend.  Expect an away win.
