In its last 3 matches, Aston Villa didn’t pull a win, and you might think “hey, they’re downhill”. Well, that’s ’cause I selected only the last 3 games. The 3 previous matches before them, Villa won all of them. And talk about downhill, that’s Newcastle! Keegan still didn’t win so far.

vory Coast showed best play so far in the Cup. They all play like one and have fun both on the field and outside of it. The quarterfinals held the easiest rival for them, Guinea, outmatched in all segments of play. They took an early lead, kept it and slowed the play down only to show their supremacy by scoring four goals in 15 minutes. On their way to the finals they will meet their old acquaintance – Egypt. Two years ago the Elephants lost to them in the finals played in Cairo in front of 80 000 fans, but now the situation is completely different. The duel will be played on neutral ground and based on their play so far Drogba and the mates are the favourites.

After two convincing wins in the group (Cameroon and Sudan), last two matches on this tournament were pretty weak for the players of Egypt. Actually, they needed only one point against Zambia but they had a lot of luck against Angola. Penalty and a bad call of Angola defense allowed Egypt to be in contention for the finals after two years. Two years ago, Egypt players celebrated in the finals so they will definitely give their best in this match so they can get a chance to fight for gold again.

Again on Sunderland are offering great odds, but I want to say that this team on their own ground are playing just great for their name in Premier League, maybe they are poor in their away games, yes, but there is a big change when they are playing at home, all these things they already had proved from the begining of Premier League 2007-2008. IMO why Sunderland are playing so well “for their position in PL”, well I will say the motivation factor is the most important, where Roy Keane have the main role. All in all is not so important why these things are happening, important is that are happening. About Wigan, a team which improved recently in defense, but their attack is the same like before, Wigan will go with a defensive mind here and can close and block the game, but I simply can’t see them taking something from this one.

First, and the main reason for this bet is that Bolton are without thier ex-best player Nicolas Anelka, he had an important role as he had scored 10 goals for Bolton. Now the major problem for this team is clear their attack. About Bolton’s last game against Reading, match ended 0-2, a win that they don’t deserved, but where simply scored from the few chances they have created. About Portsmouth, I know they’ve been lucky this year in Premier League in many away games ex. the game against Aston Villa, but they improved their attack as now they have Jermain Defoe and Milan Baros in their squad, two great strikers. Defoe already scored a goal recently in the game against Chelsea, where Portsmouth played a good game and they deserved even 3 points from that game. All in all, Bolton at the moment without their ex-key player Anelka are more weaker than before and this thing can be seen from their play.

First game between these two teams ended 4-0 and it was a absolutely deserved win for Spurs as they had created so many chances to score and put Derby’s net in danger almost all the game. This year Derby are the most poor team in Premier League, no doubt about that, and their weak point is their defence, not their attack. So, this weak point is perfect for the visitors, cause we all know how offensive are Tottenham and that they can score ex. 5 goals in a game. I have watched Derby’s matches, they let many free spaces in their play and I think Tottenham will profit as they are experts on countra-attack and not only. First game was an easy one, a game where it was clear who will be the winner, but the fact that Derby will play at home in this one IMO is another advantage cause they will play more offensive and will let more free spaces. All in all, Tottenham have a coach with a very offensive mentality and his influence can be seen from team’s play, as I’ve seen them in a lot of games attacking while they where winning.

San Antonio Spurs have been picking up their form in their last 2 games after a few games on the slide and while they are currently on their road trip, they had shown yesterday that they are completely motivated by the signing of Damon Stoudemire who has proved to be a decent fit despite not getting a single dime last night.

Today are going to play with Patrick Mtiliga,Ronnie Stam and Sander Van Gessel who are in but out are Kurt Elshot,Tyrone Loran,Matthew Amoah,Edwin De Graaf and Gert-Jan Tamerus.

Yesterday I saw the game against Czech.Greeks were playing with almost the second team.Otto is trying to fit new players to the team that won Euro.

They seem to be in a very good form and although they score three times they have one goal disallaowed.
