Portuguese winger, Christiano Ronaldo, got the crowd at Old Trafford rising to its feet after he claimed a century of goals for Manchester United this week-end. He was but one of the protagonists who belted five goals into the net against Stoke City!

He and new kid on the block, Danny Welbeck, will have to combine well again this week-end when they travel to Villa Park for their Premier League showdown against Aston Villa. Villa is currently fifth on the Premier League table and shares 23 points with Arsenal.

It isn’t going to be a done deal for United on Saturday evening though, Villa had a fantastic outing against the Gunners, beating them 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium! If Gabriel Agbonlahor plays anything like he did against Arsenal, the game could really go down to the wire.

Villa has played one more match than Manchester United but is a single point adrift of Sir Alex Ferguson’s men. Both teams have won 7 matches and United ’s goal tally stands at 25 compared to Villa’s 22.

Online bookmaker, bet365, is offering the usual array of betting options on the Premier League fixture including half with most goals, halftime correct score, winning margin and more. Current match betting odds are Aston Villa 3/1, a draw 12/5 and Manchester United 4/5.

Tonight’s Carling League Cup fixture between Arsenal and Wigan could prove to be a real humdinger with the talented young Gunners getting an opportunity to impress, whilst Wigan will be trying their damndest to cause an upset and move through to the next round.

Prior to their 2-1 win over Manchester United this week-end, Arsenal has been battling to find their touch and has failed to impress both the management staff and the legions of unforgiving fans. Wegner may have been bothered with injuries but even the normally implacable Austrian has been feeling the heat of consecutive below par performances by his men.

The derby win on Saturday has come at exactly the right time for the men in red and with renewed confidence and the second stringers out to impress, odds are there will be a couple of smashing goals to lift the spirits at the Emirates Stadium tonight.

Wigan manager, Steve Bruce, however will be determined to pull off an unlikely win to make amends for the dismal performance against Stoke and to avoid the ever present relegation zone!

Online bookmaker, bwin, is offering a range of betting options on tonight’s fixture including half time results, number of goals scored and who will go through to the next round. Current match betting odds are Arsenal 1.52, a draw 3.65 and Wigan 5.90.

English Premiership log leaders, Chelsea, will head to Rome tonight with a Group A victory firmly in mind and with consummate striker, Nicolas Anelka, clearly in some of the best form of his life, their task shouldn’t be all that difficult.

AS Roma is battling to find any sort of cohesion and have been hammered in Italy’s Serie A competition. They have experienced their worst start to the local competition in over 30 years and with their captain, Francesco Totti, an unlikely participant in tonight’s clash, they are probably going to find themselves under the proverbial cosh.

The Blues will also be without some of their key players - Michael Ballack, Ashley Cole and Ricardo Carvalho have all been sidelined due to injury. Although these talented players will be missed, Chelsea’s recent form suggests they will leave Rome with a pocket full of points and will continue into the next stage of the UEFA Champions League.

Bookmaker, totesports, is offering a range of betting options on the battle in Rome including to score a penalty, half time result, total goals and more. Current match betting odds are AS Roma 2/1, a Draw 9/4 and Chelsea 11/10.

Newcastle United have a couple of heavyweights in their corner who, if they are able to pass the final fitness tests, may well be included in the team to take on the indomitable Aston Villa tonight. Both Captain, Michael Owen and the talented Nicky Butt have been tipped as possible contenders for the fray at St James’ Park.

Newcasle are currently languishing at the bottom of the Premier League table with a paltry 9 points but manager, Joe Kinnear, has had a positive influence on his men since he took over the reins. With a victory against West Brom under their belts, the men from the north will certainly have grown both in confidence and stature.

Kinnear has made no bones of the fact they are gunning for the full three points that will propel them to a more comfortable position on the League table, thereby absolving them of the real threat of relegation.

Aston Villa, on the other hand, are right up there with the big guns and are currently in 5th place on the elite league table. They share 20 points with Arsenal and are emphatic about making it into the top 4. Villa, if successful at Tyneside, will have recorded their third Premier League victory on the trot, having beaten both Wigan and Blackburn, scoring 7 goals in total!

Bookmaker, StanJames, has an attractive array of betting options on the Premier League clash in Newcastle tonight including total goals, total corners, double chance, draw no bet and many more. Match betting odds are currently Newcastle 15/8, a draw 11/5 and Aston Villa 6/4.

Werder Bremen is going to have to rely on their tried and tested top scorers on Saturday if they are going to get the better of VFB Stuttgart at the Gottlieb-Daimler Stadium. The local boys, currently placed 7th on the Bundesliga table, have excelled in front of their 47 000 rampant fans and have won over 66% of their encounters on home turf!

In fact, the Stuttgart team has claimed the honours in their past ten encounters, dating all the way back to March 2004. The four-time German Champions have manged to beat Werder Bremen 4 times, have shared the match three times and have lost out to the Bremen men on three occasions.

Although they failed to score against Borussia Dortmund, who won the encounter 3-0 and Bayer Leverkusen (2-0), they did get the better of both Karlsruhe and Hannover 96 and if 23 year old forward, Mario Gomez and his Romanian playmate, Ciprian Marcia, can find the form that has elevated them to the leading goal socrers, then a win is certainly on the cards.

Werder Bremen, however, can call on the scintillating flair of Peruvian genius, Claudi Pizarro and the dedicated hard work of Markus Rosenberg to level the playing fields and considering they are currently third on the Bundesliga table with 11 points, it would take a very brave man to discount a victory for the side that has won 50% of their encounters to date.

Online sports bookmaker, Betfair, is offering betting odds on all sorts of options including correct score, next goal and half time score. Current match odds are Stuttgart - 2.72, a Draw - 3.6 and Werder Bremen - 2.76.
