The Premier League and FA Cup share the stage this weekend, with a number of big games across both competitions. Cheap Jordan 12 Wholesale . Sky Sports Paul Merson looks ahead to the five fixtures in the league and the four FA Cup quarter-finals, with Reading up first against Crystal Palace on Friday night.Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United are all in action too with a Wembley semi-final the prize, while in the Premier League Tottenham and Leicester look to keep their foot down as the title race enters the home stretch. Mersons last predictions Result Merses prediction Watford 0-1 Leicester 1-1 Tottenham 2-2 Arsenal 1-1 Chelsea 1-1 Stoke City 1-2 Everton 2-3 West Ham 2-1 Man City 4-0 Aston Villa 4-0 Newcastle 1-3 Bournemouth 2-1 Southampton 1-1 Sunderland 2-1 Swansea 1-0 Norwich 1-1 Crystal Palace 1-2 Liverpool 1-2 West Brom 1-0 Man Utd 1-2 Merse correctly guessed Man Citys 4-0 win over Aston Villa last weekend and Liverpools 2-1 triumph at Crystal Palace, while he also tipped a draw in the north London derby. Ed Chamberlin is joined by Paul Merson to discuss this weekends Premier League fixtures Scroll on to see who he is tipping this week, starting with the Premier League games...Norwich v Man City - 12.45pm, Saturday, Sky Sports 1 HDYou might as well start with a zero because Norwich cant score a goal at the moment. That is their Achilles heel. Its not as though they havent looked like finding the net because they create the chances, but they just cant finish. Merse fears for Norwich because they are struggling to score goals As for Man City, people are saying they should be looking over their shoulder at West Ham, but I think its Arsenal who should be worried. They have tough away games to come, including one at the Etihad, and they better be careful they dont get leapfrogged.City could actually be the danger to Leicester now at the top of the table. Looking at Tottenham and Arsenals fixtures, I think City are the only ones that can catch them, and they should pick up another win this weekend. PAUL PREDICTS: 0-3 (Sky Bet, 10/1)Bournemouth v Swansea - 3pm, SaturdayThese two teams have had dream weeks, and whoever wins this game can get their flip-flops out. They are both probably safe now, but another win and they can go off to that Madonna song.Swansea have gone really well recently, but Bournemouth should have enough at home to get the win. They have a go at the Vitality Stadium and Swansea have had to work very hard over the last few weeks to earn their results.PAUL PREDICTS: 2-1 (Sky Bet, 8/1) Bournemouth and Swansea face each other this weekend Stoke v Southampton - 3pm, SaturdayI dont go against Stoke at home. I know they lost to Everton, but its very rare that happens. Southampton are in and out at the moment, and got away with a late equaliser against Sunderland.Without Jose Fonte in defence for the away side after his red card last week, I cant see anything other than Stoke picking up three points.PAUL PREDICTS: 2-1 (Sky Bet, 9/1) Will Stoke be too strong for Saints at the Britannia Stadium? Aston Villa v Tottenham - 4pm, SundaySpurs were on the end of a good hiding against Borussia Dortmund and I found it strange because you get so far in the competition and then make seven changes. Its a shame for the fans who travelled over to Germany, but it was the same when Stoke went to Valencia a few years ago. Mauricio Pochettino made seven changes against Borussia Dortmund and Spurs were punished If that was the plan, you could say Spurs would have been better off beating Crystal Palace in the FA Cup and dropping the Europa League.As for this game against Villa, its must-win for Tottenham. There is no messing about now because draws are not good enough and if its level in the last 15 minutes of matches, they have to go all out.I think theyll beat Villa by three goals, though. Theres not one Villa player that would get in the Tottenham team at the moment.PAUL PREDICTS: 0-3 (Sky Bet, 17/2) Tottenham will look to bounce back from their midweek defeat by Borussia Dortmund Leicester v Newcastle - 8pm, Monday Night Football, Sky Sports 1 HD Ed and Merse discuss Leicesters Monday Night Football game with Newcastle I fancy Leicester strongly because theres just as much pressure on Newcastle, and if they win on Monday I think Leicester put Arsenal to bed. They are eight points clear at the moment, and if they win this game they will be 11 clear and Arsenal have a game in hand.If Arsenal take six points from their three difficult away games - against Everton, West Ham and Man City - theyve done very well. Those six points take them five behind Leicester and Leicester would have two games in hand. I dont see how Arsenal can make it up. Its all smiles at Leicester at the moment with the Foxes top of the Premier League I watched Newcastle play Bournemouth last week and if they play anything like that again, this will be all over at half-time.I worry for them a lot. Bournemouth were so far advanced last week, and it was just scary considering the amount of money theyve spent.PAUL PREDICTS: 3-1 (Sky Bet, 11/1) Jamie Vardy scored on his last game against Newcastle earlier this season Merse predicts wins for Arsenal and Everton in their FA Cup quarter-finals, while The Magic Man thinks replays could be on the cards in the other two ties ... Ed and Merse discuss this weekends FA Cup quarter-final fixtures Everton v Chelsea - 5.30pm, SaturdayThis all depends on whether Eden Hazard and Diego Costa are available because Chelsea could be in trouble without them. If theyre not fit, I dont see the visitors getting a result. Diego Costa limped off against PSG in the Champions League and is a doubt People will say Which Everton will we get, the one that keeps throwing leads away at home or the one that slaughtered Stoke away?But if Costa and Hazard dont play, Chelsea are there to be beaten and I dont see anything but an Everton win.PAUL PREDICTS: 2-1 (Sky Bet, 17/2) Merse is tipping Everton to beat Chelsea at Goodison Park - if Costa and Hazard arent fit Arsenal v Watford - 1.30pm, SundayWatford have hit a bit of a brick wall. They have done brilliantly this season, but its just started to catch up with them. Theyre struggling to score goals and to win football matches.This is a massive game for Arsenal. For me, this is their meaningful chance of silverware because I would be shocked if they won the league from here.They are going to get absolutely rinsed in the Champions League, but my worry is Arsene Wenger could rest players for the Watford game and take his strongest team to Barcelona. It would not surprise me one bit, but this is a big game for Arsenal.PAUL PREDICTS: 2-0 (Sky Bet, 6/1) Merse believes Arsene Wenger could rest his players for the trip to Barcelona Manchester United v West Ham - 4pm, SundayOh my God. I have never seen anything like that Man United performance against Liverpool on Thursday night. I know it wasnt great at the start of the season but this was different.Did anybody tell the players it was Liverpool against Man Utd? It is supposed to be the ultimate game in English football, but if you looked at the Man Utd players yesterday, you cant tell me they saw it like that. Man United have lost two in a row after they slipped up against Liverpool in the Europa League You felt for their supporters because they know what that match means. Everybody had a bad game but you have to show desire.After that display, Id be shocked if United beat West Ham and Im going for a draw, setting up the last FA Cup tie at the Boleyn Ground. You couldnt handpick a better game with the winner playing at Wembley, and its all set up for West Ham.PAUL PREDICTS: 1-1 (Sky Bet, 5/1) West Ham managed to earn a draw on their last visit to Old Trafford earlier this season Reading v Crystal Palace - FridayI cant see another Palace defeat here despite their recent run, and I think they will take it back to Selhurst Park. Its a big pitch at the Madejski Stadium and they should be able to play their football. The Premier League is a jump up and you dont see too many shocks in football anymore, and I definitely dont see Palace losing this game. I think they will have a little bit too much for them to allow the upset, and Im going 1-1 with a replay to come.PAUL PREDICTS: 1-1Think you know better than Merse? Take him on at Super 6 for the chance to win £250,000! Also See: The relegation run-in Tylers stats Hazard stuck in a rut? Where would Zlatan fit in? Jordan 12 Wholesale Shoes . - The fiancee of former New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez is set to ask a judge to throw out allegations that she lied to a grand jury. Jordan 12 Cheap Real . Ireland was the last unbeaten side in the championship after France fell to Wales on Friday, and was favoured to end a three-match losing run to England with a side with more than twice as many caps, rampant momentum, and added incentive to celebrate Brian ODriscolls world record-tying 139th test cap. http://www.wholesaleairjordan12.com/ . Tony Parker had 33 points and nine assists and San Antonio never trailed in a resounding 116-92 victory over Portland, bullying the younger Trail Blazers in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals.PITTSBURGH -- Yovani Gallardo and the Milwaukee Brewers are proving to be quite a headache for the NL Centrals top teams. Gallardo pitched seven sharp innings and Aramis Ramirez homered against his former club, helping Milwaukee beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-0 on Thursday night. The fourth-place Brewers closed out a 4-2 road trip, taking two of three at third-place Cincinnati before repeating the feat against second-place Pittsburgh. "It was absolutely a good road trip," manager Ron Roenicke said. "We pitched great in the games we won and our offence, especially the younger guys, continued to do good things." The Pirates fell one game behind NL Central-leading St. Louis, which was idle. The Cardinals start a three-game series at Pittsburgh on Friday night. Making his Pirates debut, John Buck went 3 for 3 while subbing for starting catcher Russell Martin. Pittsburgh acquired Buck and outfielder Marlon Byrd from the New York Mets on Tuesday. "It kind of gets you into the flow to have a game like this," Buck said. "Now you feel like youre part of the team and its exciting to be part of this team. Im really looking forward to the St. Louis series. Games like that are what you play for." Gallardo (10-9) allowed six hits and walked one while improving to 11-4 in his career against the Pirates, including a 5-2 record at PNC Park. Gallardo has given up just two earned runs in 19 1-3 innings in three starts since coming off the disabled list, including a pair of solid outings against the Reds. He was sidelined with a strained hamstring and the injury gave him time to work on his delivery with pitching coach Rick Kranitz. "Going on the DL took some of the pressure off," Gallardo said. "I wanted to fix everything all at once. Obviously, its tough to do that when youre getting ready to compete every four or five days against big league hitters. I was able to tweak a few things and now I feel like Im in the rhythm to be the type of pitcher I can be." Brandon Kintzler pitched the final two innings of the six-hitter. Ramirez hit his ninth home run of an injury-marred season leading off the fourth inning, giving Milwaukee a 3-0 lead. Ramirez, who broke into the major leagues with Pittsburgh in 1998, hit his 350th career homer Tuesday in the series opener. Pittsburgh rookie Gerrit Cole (6-7) pitched a career-high 7 1-3 innings in his 14th start. He allowed four runs and 10 hits. "The fifth, ssixth and seventh innings were as good as hes been since he got here," Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle said. Cheap Jordans From China. "He did a good job of getting into a groove later in the game and Gerrit gets credit for that and Buck gets credit, too, for working him through some tough spots." The 22-year-old Cole was pitching on seven days rest as the Pirates continue to find spots to limit his workload. Cole has pitched a combined 153 1-3 innings between Pittsburgh and Triple-A Indianapolis after working 132 last year in his first professional season. A throwing error by Cole led to a first-inning run for Milwaukee. Cole threw wildly to first on a pickoff attempt and Jean Segura advanced two bases before scoring on Jonathan Lucroys single. The Brewers added another run in the second when Carlos Gomez led off with a single, stole second and scored on rookie Khris Davis double. Lucroy drove in his second run with a sacrifice fly in the eighth. Scooter Gennett, a rookie second baseman, had three hits for Milwaukee, raising his batting average to .336 in 40 games. Segura and Gomez added two each. "I like facing guys who throw hard like Cole," Gennett said. "I can gear up for the fastball at 95, 96, 97 and that makes the breaking stuff seems slower than it is." Pittsburgh put runners in scoring position in three of the first four innings but came away empty. Gallardo then set down nine of his last 10 batters before being lifted for a pinch hitter. "Theres a concern when your ace isnt pitching like your ace," Roenicke said. "Hes been pitching great since he came off the DL. The way hes been pitching now gives all of us, including Yo, a good feeling looking ahead to next season." NOTES: Pittsburgh LF Starling Marte, who has been on the disabled list since Aug. 19 with a bruised right hand, has been swinging a bat with his left hand and may be able to start taking batting practice next week, a week earlier than planned. ... Milwaukee RF Norichika Aoki didnt start. He has been getting regular days off to rest his sore right knee. He grounded out when he hit for Gallardo. ... Pittsburgh LHP Francisco Liriano (14-6, 2.74 ERA) is scheduled to start Friday night against St. Louis RHP Shelby Miller (12-8, 2.90 ERA). ... The Brewers face the Los Angeles Angels on Friday in the opener of a three-game series, with RHP Wily Peralta (8-13, 4.51 ERA) going up against RHP Jered Weaver (8-7, 3.46 ERA).
