Verdict: 2-1
Portsmouth - West Ham(1945)
These two only just met on Boxing Day, when West Ham came out 2-0 winners.
Both teams have their well-documented problems off the pitch but, away from the finances, I was impressed with the way Portsmouth fought back from a goal down against Sunderland to win 2-1 in the FA Cup.
I get the feeling Portsmouth will edge this. But I wouldn't be surprised to see a new striker - or even two - by the end of the week at Upton Park.
Verdict: 2-1
Tottenham - Fulham
Tottenham have gone a couple of games without winning and were poor against Liverpool.
Fulham had a good away win at Accrington at the weekend but their league form has not been great of late.
One thing is for sure, Tottenham will create a lot of chances - like they did against Leeds.
Although Fulham's away record is much improved under Roy Hodgson, I just don't see them scoring at White Hart Lane.
Verdict: 2-0
Wolves - Liverpool (1945)
Although Wolves drew 2-2 against Crystal Palace on Saturday, expect Mick McCarthy to make many changes for the league game.
Meanwhile, Liverpool haven't played for almost a week, so they should be fresh. They were good against Tottenham at Anfield.
But, away from home with the players manager Rafael Benitez has available right now, I don't think they can create or score chances without Fernando Torres or Yossi Benayoun.
Much will depend on Steven Gerrard's fitness, but I'm plumping for a draw.
Verdict: 1-1
WEDNESDAY
Aston Villa - Arsenal (1945)
I thought Stoke deserved their victory against Arsenal in the FA Cup on Sunday, but Gunners boss Arsene Wenger had the luxury of leaving quite a few star names out of the side.
He will name a completely different team, although I think this game will be a draw. Villa tend to be a little negative whenever they come up against top-four opposition at home.
They tend to flood the midfield and play on the break, which is probably not a bad tactic against Arsenal.
But this one is a draw for me.
Verdict: 1-1
Blackburn v Wigan
Blackburn are under a bit of pressure at the moment. However, their last home Premier League game was a 2-0 win over Fulham, so that should offer some encouragement to Sam Allardyce and his side.
At the risk of boring everyone to death, you are never quite sure what sort of Wigan performance to expect.
They were absolutely atrocious against Notts County in the first half, but pulled it back to force a replay.
I think Blackburn's physical and aerial presence will be too good for Wigan but it will be interesting to see what sort of crowd numbers we will see at Ewood Park. They have been poor of late.
Verdict: 2-1
Chelsea - Birmingham (1945)
What a place to go and lose your 14-match unbeaten run! I thought Birmingham's run was going to end at Everton, given the way they are playing at the moment, on Saturday.
But they were fantastic - again - and it just goes to show how much confidence is running through the team.
However, they will come unstuck against Chelsea, who I think have upped their game in the last month.
Whether Didier Drogba will be available I'm not sure, but what a handy player to bring off the bench if they can rush him back.
Verdict: 2-0
Everton - Sunderland
Everton are playing really well at the moment - they comprehensively outplayed Manchester City and should have beaten Arsenal too the week before.
But their defeat by Birmingham at the weekend will not please manager David Moyes - he will demand some sort of response from his players at home.
As for Sunderland, Darren Bent apart, they have been iffy to say the least. Their form over the last 10 games has been poor and I can't see them reversing that at Goodison Park.
Verdict: 2-1
