Wigan 1-2 Everton 20th January 13:30

They've been on quite a good comeback but I still expect us to win. A midfield of Fernandes Cahill Carsley Arteta could work with 2 strikers up front, otherwise 4-5-1 and throw faddy in midfield.

2-0 to the blues

I'd like to see Fernandes in, get some match practice in for Chelsea.

Would also prefer 4 - 5 - 1, let Cahill find the space and bang a few more in.

i think 2-0. Johnson to get a goal(he'll be out to prove himself) and cahill.

2-0, Fernandes and Arteta on the score sheet

I would be disappointed if we don't win by 2

3-0, goals by Arteta(pk), Cahill, and Lescott

They're there for the taking, they're a poor side, I think they have been since they got promoted if I'm being brutally honest. I hope we get a couple of goals, another clean sheet would be welcome, and just a good, solid team performance. I don't ask for much do I?

Anybody else think Marcus Bent is gona score against us, with kilbane with the assist?

in all honesty...no.
I really really hope not!

I hope Arteta scores, I blew my metaphorical 'load' on that bet in the vBookie!

2-1 to Everton with Cahill & AJ scoring for us and Scharner with his obligatory strike for them.

I don't think it will be as easy a match as some seem to.

But I always fancy us to win and I think we'll nick it. Maybe a late-ish goal

Wigan is never a easy team to play against on there days, just like that game they won against Blackburn the score was 5-3 wasn't it?

But our defence is better than that and we have already beaten Wigan once this season as I remember, i think this will be a goal feast for us an easy win, but I still reckon we did concede a goal but I hope we could keep a clean sheet!

I predict an easy win and couple of goals for us, it is what we going to need before Chelsea match and Spurs match afterward.

Scharner does put them in the back of the net when we play them. Benty could come up trumps as well. I hope AJ is fit. I can't see Ossie or Manny starting but should be on the bench. They played us tough at home earlier in the season. If we are on I see us good value for 2 goals if not this could be a tough affair like Welts said. To keep us good value we need a three pointer here.

Osman would not start as he prepare for Chelsea match, but I am almost certain Fernandes would start, if we want him to be more match fit for Chelsea we should be seeing him starting on Sunday and play 60~70 mins before being taken off.

He might not be so sharp as lack of matches in Spain, but he has been training with the parent club so he is fit enough, he will be ready to play on Sunday.
