Pepe Reina looks for Liverpool milestone

Reina is looking for a new Liverpool milestone this Monday as he faces Fulham. The last time Reina failed to feature for Liverpool in a Barclay's Premier League game was back in 2007 against Charlton when he was rested ahead of Liverpool's Champions League final that month. 

Reina looks set to play in his 150th consecutive Premier League game when he plays against Fulham, Monday night. If he plays, which is expected, it will be the 7th longest consecutive streak by any player in Liverpool's history.

Reina became Liverpool's fastest goalkeeper to 100 clean sheets in the league back in December when he broke Ray Clemence's record. He achieved this feat in 198 games league games, 19 games less than Clemence.

WAG of the day!

Amaia Salamanca

We already featured a WAG that belonged to Real Madrid superstar, Sergio Ramos, but once again he out does himself with Salamanca. Amaia is another one of Ramos' former girlfirend's and is a Spanish actress who is best known for her role as Catalina Marcos. I have no idea who her role is but one thing is for certain, she probably looks good playing her. Besides acting, Amaia, works as a model in photo shoots, most likely what she is doing in the above photo. In 2006 she was ranked as number FIVE in Maxim's magazine, "Top 100 Hot List", between Jessica Alba and Scarlett Johansson. Can't go wrong with that list.

Premier League results for Saturday, May 7th

It's match week 36 and it has so far lived up to expectations. Saturday saw Everton upset Manchester City, Newcastle and Sunderland coming away with 3 points and Blackpool earning a vital point away at White Hart Lane against Tottenham.


Everton 2 - 1 Manchester City:
      Everton came back to upset Manchester City and make them wait to guarantee Champions League football next season. City got off to a great start and took the lead 28 minutes in when Yaya Toure was played in by David Silva and powered the ball into the net past Tim Howard. The host weren't down and out though as they came back in the second half to score two headed goals from Sylvain Distin and Leon Osman within 7 minutes of each other.

Aston Villa 1 - 1 Wigan:
     Wigan earned a very important point away from home against Aston Villa.  The point lifts them out of the bottom three for the time being. Wigan took the lead through their star, Charles N'Zogbia, 10 minutes in when he slotted the ball across the line and into the corner. Villa fought back through Ashley Young, who curled the ball into the opposite corner, just 7 minutes later.

Bolton 1 - 2 Sunderland:
      The story has to be Bolton's poor run of form as they fell at home to Sunderland for their 5th loss in 8 games. Bolo Zenden, former Liverpool player, gave Sunderland the lead as he rounded Bolton's shot stopper, Jaaskelainen, and eased the ball over the line. Fans thought Bolton earned a point when they scored in the 87th minute through Ivan Klasnic but Sunderland found the winner in added time with and own goal from Zat Knight.

Tottenham 1 - 1 Blackpool:
     In a hectic final 15 minutes we seen two penalty's, one penalty save and two goals. Charlie Adam scored for Blackpool from the spot but it took him two attempts as he had his first penalty saved by Gomes but slotted home the second just a minute later. Blackpool looked set to steal all 3 point but Jermain Defoe smashed home the equalizer four minutes from time from the edge of the box.

Newcastle 2 - 1 Birmingham:
     Newcastle came away with the victory at home after their 2-1 win over Birmingham. Newcastle took the lead 35 minutes in when Ameobi scored from the spot after Liam Ridgewell handled the ball in the area. It wasn't long until Newcastle doubled their lead when Steven Taylor headed home just moments later. Birmingham made it interesting by scoring just before half-time but they couldn't find a way back into the game in the second half.

West Ham 1 - 1 Blackburn:
     One team will look at the game as a point gained while the other will look at it as two points dropped. West Ham failed to put in the performance that was expected of them as they fell behind to Blackburn 12 minutes in when Jason Roberts scored from close range. West Ham looked to be sent packing empty handed until Thoms Hitzlsperger scored from a corner just 10 minutes from time. West Ham still sit 3 points from safety as they failed to capitalize on this home game against a struggling Blackburn side.

Preview of the Premiership

The next 4 days in the Premier League will make or break many teams as they battle it out for vital points. Chelsea play at Manchester United in what looks like a winner takes all match up for the title. While on the other end of the table 5 teams teams will be looking to avoid relegation by picking up all 3 points.

Match of the weekend: Manchester United vs. Chelsea FC
     With out a doubt this has to be the match of the weekend as these to heavyweights battle it out for the crown. Manchester United come into the match on a high after making it through to the Champions League final but had that disappointing loss last weekend to Arsenal. Chelsea on the other hand come in on great form after taking 16 points from a possible 18 in their last 6 matches. However, Chelsea were pretty poor against United in the Champions League last month. I feel a scoring draw will be most likely but I'm feeling bold (and don't want United to win the league).

Match prediction: Manchester United 1 - 2 Chelsea

Liverpool face off against Fulham at Craven Cottage on Monday night in what looks to be a very tight match up. Liverpool are 2nd in the form guide while Fulham are 7th after coming off back to back 3-0 wins. Liverpool need to win if they are to claim 5th spot and keep the pressure on Tottenham.

Wigan travel to Aston Villa and desperately need something out of the game if they are to avoid relegation. Both have been in decent form as of late and Wigan are well capable of putting in a performance if they show up. With the absence of Gerard Houllier, Villa have had a tough month and will have to put in a good display if they are to shut down Charles N'Zogbia and his Wigan side.


Reebok stadium will be home for Sunderland this weekend as the travel to battle with Bolton. Both teams don't have much to play for but this might provide an exciting match up as neither will worry about the repercussions. Bolton have played well all season long while Sunderland have struggled in recent months. This tie could go either way, tough one to call.


Manchester City play twice this match week as they do battle away at Everton on Saturday and face a stern test at home to Tottenham on Tuesday night. These two games are important for City as they can secure their 4th spot with a win. While Everton doesn't have much to play for, they have been in great form of late and could cause an upset to City's party at Goodison Park. Tottenham on the other hand face a struggling Blackpool at home. Blackpool look almost certain to go down if they don't manage to take anything from this game but Spurs will be looking to regain 5th spot from Liverpool and anything less than a win will not do for their fans.


Birmingham City are not safe from relegation but will feel confident in their match against Newcastle. The League Cup winners travel to St. James' Park looking for a win and if results go their way they will be safe for another season at the top flight. Meanwhile, Newcastle will be looking to put on a show for their fans as they have been poor in recent weeks. With rumors their left back, Enrique, could be leaving, they will want to finish as high as possible.


Bottom club West Ham look doomed if they don't win this relegation match up at home. Blackburn sit 6 points ahead of West Ham but only 3 points from the relegation places. Under pressure manager, Avram Grant, will be looking for a performance from his side as they look to fight the drop. Both side will be looking to pull out all the stops.


Another relegation threatened side, Wolves, look to win at home against an in form West Brom side. Mick McCarhty's men will need a win at home if they are to pull themselves to saftey. They currently sit 1 point from safety with 2 games remaining after this. West Brom on the other hand see themselves in great form and have really pushed on since the arrival of Roy Hodgson.


Finally, Arsenal travel to Stoke City in a match that would of held more meaning if Arsenal didn't slip up against Bolton a few weeks back. They find themselves out of the title race but will look to prove their determination against a difficult Stoke City side. Stoke might not be looking at this match with too much importance as they have nothing to really play for in the Premier League, they surely must have the FA Cup final in the back of their minds.
