    Do we take both Manchester clubs this weekend??
    Might play both mancester utd and manchester city this weekend. Man utd only need a point from 2 games to win a record 19th league title and sir alex will look to get it done as quickly as possibly away to blackburn and get a win by being very offensive so then he can spend more time planning for the champions league final. Barca have already won their league and are probably doing the same. He'll probably play a very attacking side and i read somehwere that only edwin van der sar will be rested because of his age.

    As for the FA cup final, for city this is a big statement and a chance to show people that they are the real deal and that the future is bright by finally winning a trophy after having already secured champions league football for next season. Stoke city will give it their all and no doubt that both clubs will be pumped at the first chance to win a trophy in over 30 years for their club but in the end the cream will rise and city have the better players. As for team news, tevez may not start after just coming back from injury, no toure of course because of the drugs ban and gareth barry has recovered from injury and for stoke late fitness tests for etherington and huth as well as fuller, sidibe and higginbottom who are out.

    What do you guys think?

    Man U hasn't played well away from home this yr. I think they get a point but putting $$ on them to win, I wouldn't touch.

    Stoke is a tough team of late, I like the under in this one , no side.

      I wouldn't want to be with either Manchester team this weekend.

      I never bet on my team, but here goes:
      United will be playing a host of squad players and only need a point vs a Blackburn team that is facing relegation. Berbatov is good for a goal and would like to wrap up the golden boot. Backing United to win at such short odds away from home is something I would stay away from.

      City are up against the most bullish team in England. We have already seen one rough side win a cup in England this season. Stoke can defend and are scoring goals for fun lately if you disregard the Blackpool result. I will wait for injury/ team news (especially the health of Robert Huth), but I imagine that Stoke +1/2 +104 is where my money will be unless its cut overnight.

        I like ur manu bet and I'll tail becos they only need the draw anyway.

        FA cup will go into extra time becos Wembly is not the best place to play passing footy, so a draw would be likely.

                I think it more so the fact that they've won 5 out of 18 on the road this yr with 9 draws. I don't think they play for it but to bet them to win isn't a smart play IMO

                    Which team starts a game by playing for a draw? Blackburn needs the points, manu only need 1, so it makes sense to back the draw issnt is? U can also try Handicap for blackburn if u like......

                        United may want to celebrate EPL at home vs Blackpool so a good bet on this game is Blackburn

                            Like Man U to wrap it up despite their road record.

                                Save your money imo, they are surely capable of it but Blackburn is actually playing well and Man U might be vulnerable if it remains 1-0 late and they are pressing. Not saying they don't come back but I wouldn't invest in it, good luck with what you decide.

                                  Man U always seem to score to earn a point or nick the win late in games.
                                  If they havent scored by 60-70 mins might b worth looking at Man U team total over 0.5

                                    Expecting ManU to score 1 for sure, it only 58ยด
