Will there be any controversial handballs this weekend? It's a Given

Here's this week's edition of Graeme's Silly Bet:

The 1987 Crystal Light National Aerobic Champioship Team Competition: The San Francisco Bay Club

After the midweek excitement of the play-offs which had it all, handball controversy, Shay Given going mental and Russia getting bundled out, it's back to normal league action this weekend.

Post-international games tend to throw up problems for the more multi-cultured clubs. For example, how are Arsenal going to cope without placenta-drench Robin van Persie leading the line for a few weeks. You could say his ankle is a big bloody mess. Arsenal cannot be happy with Giorgio Chiellini's ligament busting challenge.

This weekend has thrown up some interesting match-ups, onwards with the bets:

Sunderland v Arsenal
Steve Bruce will continue to highlight his growing reputation in management circles with a stonking 2-0 victory over what, some believe, will be his future club

Sunderland to win 5/1 @ Paddy Power

Liverpool v Man City
AT the beginning of the season there were a few mentals who thought that this would be a top of the table clash. Instead, Hughes and Benitez have managed to make some crazy signing decisions to determine the contrary. This Saturday's 4th spot decider looks set to see Aquilani make his first start in the league for his new club with Johnson and Gerrard on the bench, therefore I think City will lose this late in the game by 2 goals to 1

Liverpool to win 2-1, 13/2 @ William Hill

Dundee v ICT
I hate Caley, Sean Higgins FTW!

Sean Higgins 1st goalscorer, no odds up yet
