Midweek Premier Preview, in the style of Bob Geldof

Eh? What's that? Is it Friday already? Is it going home time? Brilliant, here comes the weekend!

Sorry, readers. It's Monday and it's the start of the week - but the good news is FourFourTwo.com  is helping you into the swing of things with an extra special Premier League predictions blog for the midweek fixtures! Isn't that great? Oh, stop your crying.

Monday

Wigan vs Liverpool

It's not just you and Bob Geldof that hate Mondays - it's everyone, and that includes managers and more specifically, Rafa Benitez. So tell me why you don't like Mondays, Rafa. Tell me why you want to shoo-ooo-ooo-oot the whole day down.

"We haven't won on a Monday in five attempts. The last time we did was on New Year's Day 2007, when we beat Bolton 3-0 at home thanks to goals from Crouch, Gerrard and Kuyt. Graham Poll was the referee that day. The match attendance was 41,370. These are facts."
