Match Prediction: Villa
Our Opponents:
Villa are rejuvenated this season since the appointment of Martin O’Neill and so they should be – he is a bloody good manager. However they have not inspired me with their activities in the transfer market this summer and I think a mediocre season is all they can expect with or without Martin O’Neill. Their most dangerous striker is Milan Baros and although on his day can produce, he was easily kept at bay during our double over the villa last season.
Player to Watch: Milan Baros
West Ham:
A strong performance at Liverpool was unfortunately not enough to take anything from the game. However with the signings of Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano Pards now thinks we can step unto the next level. I expect Javier to start against Villa and I would expect Carlos to make an appearance sometime in the second half. Bobby Zamora has got off to flyer and hopefully he can add to his chart topping 4 goals.
Predicted Hammers Team: Carroll, Konch, Gabbs, Anton, Mears, Bowyer, Mascherano, Reo-Coker, Yossi, Zamora, Harewood.
Player to Watch: Zamora
Prediction: 3-1 win

We go into this game carrying expecatation, while Villa are still thriving on romance.
Villa fans know they have a great manager and an ordinary team and their expectations reflect this. We've had a week of CL talk.
I'm looking to the home fans to inspire rather than simply demand the way ManYoo fans do.
This is a good test for Pardew.
