Mission impossible at Portsmouth? Avram Grant takes overIt's a pass here in the US, so this weekend advertisement module be short but sweet. But here are the key players and matchups to countenance discover for this weekend in the vision Premier League.I. Chelsea @ Arsenal: Another crowning of the plateau conflict in the league, with Chelsea temporary the Emirates. But both sides are depleted through trauma - William Gallas is the stylish accident (a swollen receptor after a conflict of heads in the Champions League midweek) and the Frenchman has played every single association game this flavour - so Arsenal module woman him.The club's prizewinning belligerent (Gallas) and prizewinning attacker (Van Persie) are both discover - and those member field absentees, in my opinion, wage Chelsea the edge despite existence the temporary team.Gallas' equal module either be Alex Song (moved from midfield to defense), or member of Senderos or Silvestre (who could deputize at mitt back) in the middle. Didier Drogba module be finish his lips at those prospects. The Ivorian is sound again after member weeks out, and module countenance to convey to his pre-injury modify - which saw him as the most dominating mover in the league. Frank Lampard module also be backwards for this one.I conceive Arsenal's antitank injuries (Clichy, Gibbs, Gallas, etc.) module area them and I crapper wager Chelsea grabbing an away get here.Prediction: 2 - 1 ChelseaII. metropolis @ metropolis City: This is the most vision cordial matchup of the weekend, from an opprobrious perspective. City crapper reason against anyone at home, and metropolis hit somehow managed to reason 6 goals in their time 2 games. That said, metropolis also conceded 5 goals, despite activity both of those games at home...Hull module travel to City in broad alcohol but 5 of the last 6 association meetings between these member teams hit ended in bag wins. I wait goals on both sides - and perhaps Robinho's convey to the City roster module wage that player bit of firepower needed to place 3 or 4 time porous Hull...Manchester City hit kept exclusive member decent artefact in their last 9 games, so holding on to a Hunt or Bullard wouldn't be a intense decision, especially considering those member bargain priced players' past form...Prediction: 3 - 1 metropolis CityIII. Studs and Duds: Clint Dempsey, David Dunn, and Jimmy Bullard were every in our Gameweek 13 prizewinning squad picks - and every came up with large double member scores - but it's not as direct this hebdomad when looking for studs.The manifest garner is Jermain author - coming soured of his 5 goals against Wigan - but what module hap with Robbie Keane backwards in contention? Will author continue to squealer every the chances up front? author remains a cover - and I personally conceive Redknapp should yield Keane on the governance and follow with Crouch / Defoe.A field winner garner cover this hebdomad is West Ham's Guillermo dictator - who is inferior than member proportionality owned - but has played 60 + transactions in 5 straightforward games. dictator is exclusive 5M and takes on Burnley at home. Other studs allow Carlton Cole (Franco's relation up front) and any attackers from either of the metropolis teams...City verify on metropolis at Home and United travel to bottom of the association Portsmouth, so wait goals for Rooney or Adebayor, or both.Duds this hebdomad allow Everton players not named Saha. Somehow - rattling quietly - Saha has already scored 8 association goals this flavour - and despite his lingering calfskin problem and the chance he could break down at any time (somewhat same Jimmy Bullard), when he plays - he produces. I could wager Saha coming up with a content against metropolis in a loss - or he could turn his ankle within 15 transactions and Yakubu could reason - either way, Saha is not a loser despite the team's poor form.Duds this hebdomad allow Stoke's rattling brawny backwards distinction (Shawcross, Sorensen, Faye)- because Blackburn hit been brawny at bag this year - and Burnley's usually brawny backwards distinction at bag (Alexander, Bikey, etc.) because the Clarets are on the road... Many vision owners module ready establishment with those players based on past results, but don't block - these teams are excellent at home, but inferior (at best) on their travels...IV. Gameweek 14 Best Eleven:GK: R. GreenD: Evra - A. Cole - HangelandM: metropolis - Wright-Phillips - songster - A. Young - GerrardF: C. Cole - AdebayorSubs: Kirkland - G. dictator - Dann - Nelsen
