The James Blunt and no Manchester United, Arsenal or Livepool in sight

Normally at this time of the week I'm writing Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United down on a betting slip and calling it my banker. This week, I've not got any of them down because I wouldn't want to predict any of them winning.

With United and Arsenal it's quite simple, they're playing each other and while Arsenal are playing some of the best football I've seen Arsenal play in years, which by default means some of the best football I've seen in years, you can't write off United.

Liverpool on the other hand are playing Blackburn and while Liverpool away from home are probably the best team in the country at the moment Blackburn are no pushovers. I might have a side bet on Liverpool and Arsenal but I'm not risking a fourth straight banker bet win this weekend on them.

To the banker bet and I've picked Aston Villa, Everton and Chelsea. If all three win my £10 returns £33.70.

My 3pm Saturday bet was tough this weekend because we've actually got six matches kicking off at 3pm but if I'm honest it didn't take long to pick the teams. It's the same as above plus Fulham, Spurs and Newcastle. If all six come good, for £10 I'll get back £398.13.

Again, a massive thank you to the two lovely ladies at Paddy Power who I'm convinced are flirting with me with these special offers they send through via email. This week they've got one that is something along the lines of 'if Cesc Fabregas scores at anytime in the game between United and Arsenal, they'll refund all losing single 1st/last goalscorer, correct score & scorecast bets on that game'.

If you're interested, click here to sign up and I think you even get a tenner free bet.

no one of the teams will win who i cannot be sure, although i would obviously bank on arsenal as it is at the emirates. Not only is it their home ground but it is the wide pitch which arsenal have proved their dominance on this season, my bet is on arsenal although i'm expecting goals and a few of them

Me personally think arsenal will win but it will be a close game. I mean both teams are on the up and both teams are scoring lots of goals lately so im expecting a 1-0 or 2-1 to arsenal. And villa to win 3-0
