To kick off Football In-Depth, let's discuss two of the Premier League's surprise packages, Aston Villa and Portsmouth. It is a little unfair to deem them as surprise packages, given that they have on their sidelines two world-class managers in Martin O'Neill and Harry Redknapp. Two managers who have been heavily linked to the vacant England job.
There are three scenarios that can prop up when two in-form football sides meet up in a fixture. The first is that the result would be a heart-pumping DRAW. A free-scoring, science-defying draw. This could well be on the cards at Villa Park. The second result could be a decent win for the home team. In this case, it would be just that. Decent. Because the away side would also put up a show and end up with some of the applause too. The third possibility is an away win that cracks the confidence of the home side and causes them to break down.
I fully expect O'Neill and Redknapp to go head-to-head in this potentially explosive encounter. The result is difficult to predict.....
