West Ham v Everton

Everton's Marouane Fellaini begins

his three-game suspension for headbutting Stoke's Ryan Shawcross,

although he is lucky it is not a longer ban.

Referee Mark Halsey says he saw Fellaini slap Shawcross
later in the same game and did not punish him but if that happens
anywhere in the Premier League this weekend, and the referee sees it,
then the player involved will be sent off.

I hear Joey Barton has been

tweeting about it, saying "you've gotta love the FA's consistency" 

and you don't have to be a great fan of Barton's to totally agree with him.

Everton will miss Fellaini against West Ham too, at
both ends of the pitch, and I fancy Sam Allardyce's side to come out on
top.

The Hammers are at their best when they get in the
opposition's faces and I think Sam will have them playing that way on
Saturday.

West Ham are on a run of only one win in six games but
they have played some very good sides in that time and, under Allardyce,
they don't tend to go too long without a victory.

Prediction:

2-0

if this prediction comes true again I will never mention this_pricks name in a post on here again.....ever.
