The usual stuff.

To round up some of those mid-week games first...

Aston Villa v QPR both teams to score
Blackburn v Newcastle over 2,5 goals
Bolton v Arsenal 1
Fulham v West Bromwich Albion Clint Dempsey to score at any time
Sunderland v Norwich 1
Leicester v Middlesborough over 1,5 goals
Napoli v Cesena Edinson Cavani to score at any time
Bologna v Fiorentina X [postponed]
Lazio v AC Milan over 1,5 goals
Udinese v Lecce Antonio di Natale to score at any time
Valencia v Barcelona 1
Istanbulspor v Karabukspor 1 [postponed]
Galatasaray v Antalyaspor 1
Trabzonspor v Bursaspor 


7/12, decent. Due to freakish weather conditions across Europe quite a few games in a number of leagues have been postponed with more being postponed now (Bournemouth v Exeter is a case in point, apparently the pitch is frozen - awful. Also the majority of the fixtures in League Two has already been postponed). Even Turkey has been affected, Kamil Grosicki from Sivasspor has said that it's got as cold as -22C in a game just a few days ago.






The two games played yesterday have gone as predicted:


Heerenveen v Roda Kerkrade 1 (1:0, 1:1, 2:1, 2:2, 2:3, 3:3, 4:3 - quality stuff!)
Nurnberg v Dortmund 2
