19th January – 20:00 GMT
Carling Cup Semi Final Leg 1

City

• Mancini has managed to win his first three games keeping a clean sheet in each of them
• The defeat to Everton (0-2) showed most of the players are tired following the busy schedule
• Nedum Onuoha, Shaun Wright-Phillips and Stephen Ireland have recovered from injuries
• Toure is away at Angola, Roque Santa Cruz and Martin Petrov limped off against Everton,  Vieira is still not fit enough
• Carlos Tevez will  lead the attack and he will be out for blood to get revenge on his former club

United

• Sir Alex suggested the starting 11 to play this game  would be far stronger than that which he had originally thought of.
• United scored  three goals against Burnley,  but their performance was  far from impressive to me
• Probably we will see someone from Macheda, Wellbeck, Gibson, Park, Tosic,  de Laet and Michael Owen who have all featured extensively in the Carling Cup.
• Berbatov and Giggs are questionable and probably will miss the game, but Nemanja Vidic could return from injury.
• United will play a careful game and first make sure not to concede, but I think they will score at least one

MY PREDICTION BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE with possible result 2-1

FINAL SCORE 2-1 !!!

vs

14th January – 20:00 GMT

Blackburn

• Blackburn showed poor performance at Eastlands on Monday
• We could see major changes to the team
• They have 9 games (of which 5 were draws) without a Premier League win
• Benni McCarthy is now a doubt after injuring himself and joins Vince Grella and Jason Roberts on the treatment table plus El-Hadji Diouf is suspened
• David Dunn and Croatian Nikola Kalinic probably will lead the attack

Aston Villa

• Aston Villa come into this game after a nine day rest
• They beat 3-1 Blackburn reverse team at their last for FA Cup
• Martin O’Neill has taken this competition seriously and will deploy his best team
• I expect penalty specialist Brad Guzan to start in place of Brad Friedel
• Villa look to have the quality to go to the end and win the,  but may be happy with a draw, preferably a scoring one.

MY PREDICTION ASTON VILLA NOT TO LOSE with possible result 1-1

FINAL SCORE 0-1
