Fred Turnbull: I shall be watching the game in Spain and I forecast a 3-0 win for the Villa Boys...
BluesUK: Blues all the way! Villa have rode their luck in the past two games v The Blues. They got outplayed and fluked both of them 4.1 to the City. KRO
Big Eck: C´mon Blues! Watching it in Spain!”
Daz: I'll be in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. I'll be rooting for the Blues and I'm going to say 2-1 to the Blue half of the city!
Bluenose54: Simplessss......... Blues 2 Villa 0
Midlandsman: A tricky one to call. This for me is the first real test of Houllier's reign. We need to turn up and not go missing. I can see Beye being a weakness if Beausejour's playing, and Albrighton to get the better of Ridgewell, but as i say a tricky one.
Ridgewell has come close to scoring against us in recent seasons, but it wouldn't surprise if Gardner did too.
We have to step up to the plate in this one, it depends on what formation we play, but to be honest, I think Blues midfield will wipe the floor with us. Honestly, if i had to look at it, i'd say a draw. Hope we win, but we would have to be at our VERY best to win. Blues are not to be under- estimated.
