[Punter]

Newcastle +1 @ 7/5 Corals

I can see both sets of fans singing Rafa's name this weekend. He's put some fight into Newcastle since taking over and he'll always be legend at Anfield.

I know Liverpool have been in very good form of late but Jurgen does keep changing the team week in week out, probably rightly so but i can see all these changes causing a bit of a slip up at some point and i'd not be surprised if it's this weekend. Surely the priority is the game 5 days later in Villareal.

I can see a completely different defence for starters, with possibly Danny Ward replacing Mingolet in goal, maybe the back 4 will be different from the team that thrashed Everton too. My guess is that he'll start with Skrtel, Toure, Flannagan and Smith, none have many hours football under them in 2016. Can and Henderson are still injured, so a tired Lucas should keep his place, but Coutinho, Lallana and Milner are almost certainly going to be rested. I think we'll see Joe Allen come in alongside Lucas with possibly Ojo and Ibe out wide. Firmino or Sturridge upfront.

A great opportunity for Newcastle to get something here and on the quiet i dont think anyone would begrudge giving Rafa a chance to get something.

Medium bet @ 7/5 for me.

Most weeks i think the wheels are going to fall off the Leicester bandwagon and have been fancying their opponents but if Newcastle can spank Swansea then I think Leicester can do the same even without Vardy. If the wheels do come off then you know the reason why.

I've backed them.

I'd go along with that Punt.

I'm also of the same thought as Keggers in the wheels coming off but up until late the wheels have stayed firmly on.
My reasoning though is Leicester need this win against Swansea before the real test comes against United, Chelsea and Everton, I can't remember in which order those games come but everyone's a toughie unless Everton reach the FA cup final, in which case I expect the Everton game to be a walkover, If not Martinez will be fighting for his life.

Leicester NEED to win on Sunday and must give it everything they have against Swansea, I think 4/5 are pretty goods @ home to Swansea, They'd take another 1-0 all day long and I'm expecting that sort of result.

Villa are shite I know but now they are relegated the pressure is off and with the abundance of abuse they have received this week, a cheeky fiver might be in order @ odds of 6/1, stab in the dark I know but I think a Villa with nowt to lose might just try something different and put in a performance.

Villa may well put in a performance Slick - but it will be a performance you would expect under a big top and not on a football field - just like this whole week has been

Being a City fan all my life I know that feeling more than you can imagine Colbro.
But It's a chance and one off bet just to see how Villa react to the shit they've had to put up with this week.
