17th september 2011: Aston Vila - Newcastle

ASTON VILLA
Aston Villa still undefeated after 4 games but also with only 1 win. The first half against Everton was really bad, the team was dominated in ball possession and never been dangerous. The second hald was the opposite, ending with a 2-2 draw.

Villa home record shows that they are unbeaten in the last 6 games, and won all the last 4 games against Newcastle.

24th sept 2011: Stoke City - Manchester Utd

Stoke City
Stoke came back home after a big defeat against Sunderland last week, a 0-4 defeat that shown a poor possession of the ball and lack of concentration.
Now they will face one of the best team of the league and there's no time to rest, a good performance will mean a boost of confidence.

Team news: striker Jones will miss the game and Crouch will take his place. Higginbotham will miss too.
