Manchester United vs Sunderland

Toolbox vs West Bromwich Albion
After losing to Manchester United on Sunday, Arsenal can not afford to lose anymore ground on fourth placed Tottenham Hotspur and optimal points are needed against the relegation-threatened Baggies.

Middlesbrough have likewise played through a congested fixture list just recently which has actually seen long terms in both the FA and UEFA Cup and might be prone to defeat a long way from house.
Walker's Word: Not appealing at odds-on, however Portsmouth @ 5/6.

West Ham United vs Manchester City
After a spectacular collapse versus 10-man Chelsea on Sunday, West Ham must be backed to return to winning methods against flagging Manchester City. Stuart Pearce's side has lost 5 matches home and away in succession and have not won at Upton Park given that 1991/92 in the old Division One.
