Blackpool vs Manchester United
Saturday, 4th December 2010
Bloomfield Road, Blackpool
15.00 UK time kick off.
Blackpool’s biggest home game of 2010 sees the Premier League newboys host Manchester United this Saturday. Bet on Blackpool vs Manchester United after reading our betting preview.
Despite being tipped as contenders for the drop, Blackpool have performed quite well this season and are sitting in a comfortable mid table position at this moment ( 11th in the table). However the tight nature of the Premier League means that while Ian Holloway’s side are only a point behind Europe chasing Sunderland, they are also only five above the relegation zone.
Blackpool drew 2-2 with Bolton Wanderers in their last game. The Seasiders had the match in their grasp as they lead 2-0 with a quarter of an hour to go, but they allowed Bolton to net twice late in the fixture and grab a 2-2 draw.

Aston Villa 3-2 Blackpool ( Marlon Harewood, DJ Campbell)

Manchester United lead the Premier League after thrashing Blackburn 7-1 last weekend. The Red Devils lead Chelsea by two points after the latter could only draw against Newcastle United.
However United suffered a shock defeat in midweek as they were beaten 4-0 by West Ham United in the Carling Cup. While the squad was by no means United’s strongest squad, the manner in which they conceded the goals would have been a real concern to Sir Alex Ferguson.
