Beer Fund Raising : 01 - 02 Mar 2008

With an eye on the mid-week European campaigns, it would be interesting to see how 6 of the premiership clubs would fare this weekend. With none of the top 3 teams having any significant advantage during the ECL 2nd round, first-leg (except Chelsea and ManUtd who will be playing their respective second-leg at home), it would be interesting to see if the teams will be holding back this weekend.

Merseyside will also be another focal point this weekend as a slip up by Everton this Sunday (perhaps due to Everton's UEFA Cup this coming Thursday) and allow Liverpool to reclaim the 4th spot on account of a more superior goal difference if the Reds win. Even if they don't or Everton managed to win their fixture against Portsmouth at Goodison Park, the Reds will have a second chance as they will be playing their game-in-hand against West Ham this Wednesday.

Sunderland has yet to claim their first away win and this weekend may just be the ticket as they play against bottom dwellers Derby County.

At 26 points, the Black Cats are merely 14 points away from safety which quite possible for them to achieve since there are 11 more games to play. 14 out of a maximum 33 is not a tall order is it?

As long as Keane can avoid defeat for the rest of the season, even if it means drawing all remaining games, it could just be enough to stay in the top flight for another season.

Still, it is quite impossible for Sunderland to run a 11 game streak without a loss. Hence, Keane still need to gun for victories to get the 3 points.
