Fowler to score 150th Premiership Goal?

Manchester United start the weekend nine points behind Chelsea at the top of the table, although by Sunday the lead could be back in double figures depending on how the table toppers fare at Goodison Park on Saturday. Anything less than three points each and every time they take the field has to now be considered a bad result, starting with their local rivals at the City of Manchester Stadium at Sunday lunchtime. Although still far behind the leaders, the Red Devils have been in superb form of late going 15 League games without defeat. The previous five away games have all been won, including the extraordinary 4-2 victory at Highbury. Manchester City also have enjoyed some decent results recently and will be particularly buoyant after collecting a point from Stamford Bridge. That said City have more often than not followed up a good performance with a bad one. Inconsistency has often been a major problem for Kevin Keegan. While City held Chelsea last weekend, their previous away game ended in defeat at West Brom. I have for some time been wary about getting involved in match results when Man City are involved and this weekend is no different, even with a best price 4/1 on offer for a home victory. What does hold some appeal is Robbie Fowler to score at anytime. Those familiar with my previews will know about my admiration for the one time International. Now that Anelka is gone from Manchester, Fowler is the senior striker and has in fact begun playing that way. Two goals in the previous two home games have gone a long way to restoring the confidence in the previously lethal striker. The suggested bet is a point on Fowler to find the back of the net at anytime at a best price of 5/2 courtesy of bluesq. Should the bet be successful, it would be the 150th Premiership goal of Robbie Fowler's career. As is normal for the massive Premiership games, the bookings market will be the focus of attention for many a punter. Quite amazingly Steve Bennett is once again the nominated referee. The Kent official has overseen a number of the recent televised matches from the past month, including Liverpool v Man Utd, Southampton v Portsmouth, Blackburn v Bolton, Aston Villa v Arsenal. During this run of games Bennett has shown a total of 20 yellows and 2 reds. The spreads firms are quoting the bookings at 46-50 (yellow/10pts, red/25pts).
