Birmingham City (away)

[Romey 1878]

They've got a game in hand on us now so losing is unthinkable, a win would give us some much needed breathing space but a draw wouldn't be the end of the world.

 

1-0 to us, Cahill back with a bang.

[MikeO]

The bubble has burst for Birmingham. They had a great run but it was never sustainable for me and they've lost three of the six league games they've had since they put us out of the cup, not to mention going out of the cup themselves to Pompey.

A win would put us only four points behind Liverpool and could possibly get us very close to Villa (tough game at Stoke). Would really put us in the mix .

If we turn up we'll win 3-1....even if we have an off day I think we'll get a point.

[Lizzard1]

well I think if mikel arteta can produce the same performance that he did against hull brig are in deep Shite and with da blue kangaroo comin back i think that a 2-0 win to us insnt impossible

[adamsmith69]

Which everton will turn up is the question we need to know, once we know that we should have a pretty good idea what the score will be. Unfortunately, as we are away, i cant see anything but a draw. We do owe them one though, so i am hoping to be wrong.

[Romey 1878]

We haven't looked too crash hot away from home all season so I expect it to be a win we need to grind out, especially when you consider they don't concede that many goals.

After such a fantastic result against Hull and all things being Everton it will probably be a 3-0 defeat!

I'm going for a tense 1-0 either way.

After having worried about this fixture for quite some time, I'm now quite confident of a win. I suspect Donovan will have a screamer as it is his last match. I can't see Arteta losing form. Those two on their game should be enough to take care of Brum. 3-1. Donovan to score.

 

Anyone else find it funny that his first game (not played) was Birmingham and so will be his last?

They're going to get the three points at Portsmouth tonight so we'll be back below them come kick-off <_< .

[Wall Writer]

Must win game! Got to move above these come Saturday night. COYB!

[nogs]

Definitely a must win, we're on a terrible run away from home, if it doesn't end Saturday it really is season over. Liverpool losing at Wigan has opened the door for us just a chink, they're definitely within range if we win, we've just got to take advantage. Seems like we're saying it a lot recently, but a massive, massive game for us.

[craigb]

2-1 to the blues!

 

Am going the game so hope we do well

 

Romey, whos the lady on your pic ? haha

brickin it again. but like i said last time, it all depends which Everton turns up.... reckon theres only going to be 1 goal in it, not sure which why though....

[Evertonian_George]

Come on Everton these are $hit3

[Romey 1878]

Come on Everton these are $hit3

 

 

Famous last words...

[iggy]

Tough game - they don't concede too many too often, think we will do it though 2-0

[Memmaclub]

work with a pompey season ticket holder and he said they were utter rubbish (Brum that is) worst game this season we must be able to turn these boys over and push on.

[dark]

With the excellent form that we have been on lately with the storm against Hull it seems like a win against Birmingham is definatly on the cards. Cahill coming back is a relief as it can only breed Arteta confidence, I expect him to have another top class game along with Landon Donovan (seeing as it's his last before returning to LA Galaxy)

 

They don't have too much up front and didn't cause us too many problems when they were at Goodsion, I was shocked at how poor Faddy was for them.

 

Everton 3-0 Birmingha City

 

Arteta 30'

Pienaar 45'

Donovan 88'

[Green Gold and Blue]

This is my first score line prediction, so I hope I won't be too far off.

 

I'll go for 2-0, in a good performance (as we are due a decent win away from home)

 

Pienaar goal from a bit of brilliance and a Cahill header

[GoodisonRoad]

I'm Going to go with 3-1 to us.

 

Pienaar,Yakubu X 2

 

And Jerome for them

[Romey 1878]

Good news

 

http://www.evertonfc.com/news/archive/2010/03/12/cahill-and-saha-could-return

[MikeO]

Ossie out though...

 

Howard, Neville, Distin, Jagielka, Baines, Heitinga, Arteta, Cahill, Pienaar, Donovan, Yakubu.

 

Nash, Hibbert, Yobo, Gosling, Bily, Rodwell, Anichebe.

 

....maybe.

[jcrawfor]

Would be content with that formation. I liked Heits in the DM role, and Distin wasn't half bad when lined up with Jags. I'd rather seen Coleman on the bench, but we all know Moyes has a love for Hibbo. Saha on for Yak in 2nd half if Yak hasn't got his scoring boots on.

What's a salittile? Is it the system for processing pork?
