The Weekend's EPL Fixtures Predictions and Analysis:

Saturday (15:00 unless stated):

Sunderland vs Tottenham Hotspur: LIVE at 12:45pm
Tottenham want to put pressure on 3rd placed Arsenal for the coveted Champions League spot and need to beat Sunderland to do this. It will not be an easy match against Martin O'Neil's men.

Bolton vs Fulham:
Fulham will expect to beat 16th placed Bolton, with the attacking flair of Clint Dempsey, John Arne Riise and Pavel Pogrebnyak.

Chelsea vs Wigan Athletic:
Chelsea will be without John Terry, Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole, but Juan Mata, Daniel Sturridge and Didier Drogba should still be able to cause a lot of problems for Wigan, and have a comfortable win. Can Fernando Torres score again?

Liverpool vs Aston Villa:
Liverpool have had a very poor run of form, losing to Wigan, Newcastle and QPR in their last 4 matches. They find themselves in 8th place, BEHIND rivals Everton in 7th. 
They will be desperate to get back to winning ways, with a win against 15th place Aston Villa. They cannot underestimate Villa though...

FACT: Liverpool have only lost twice at home this season.

Norwich vs Everton:
7th placed Everton go to Carrow Road against an under-rated 12th placed Norwich side.
Norwich's home form has been decent against a strong Everton side who need a win to stay 7th place. 
Drenthe, Pienaar and Jelavic will be dangerous for Norwich and will surely prove too much to handle.
 

West Brom vs Blackburn:
14th vs 18th place at The Hawthorns.
Peter Odemwingie and a decent WBA defence should be enough to see off Blackburn, but if Junior Holiett and Yakubu have a good partnership, Blackburn could move out of the bottom three with an away win.

Stoke vs Wolves: LIVE at 17:30pm

Stoke win against a struggling Wolves side who are fighting to stay in the EPL.

Sunday:

Manchester United vs QPR: LIVE at 13:30pm

United win against a lacklustre QPR side. Surely Rooney and co will be too much for Mark Hughes' men to handle?
If results go their way and they win, United will go 8 points clear of 2nd placed rivals City with 6 matches to play.

Arsenal vs Manchester City: LIVE at 16:00pm

City have to win on Sunday, if they are to still be in the title race, according to Mancini. They will have to face a tough Arsenal side who will look for revenge from the 1-0 loss earlier in the season.
Captain Robin Van Persie at the forefront for The Gunners.
Expect an interesting match, City could win but do not be surprised if Arsenal win (as they are at home and are chasing 3rd place).
