Sport's program decimated by weather but some predictions anyway

The snow, ice and general poor weather in Britain has decimated the sporting programme for the weekend but I have found a few predictions to make.is

In football only two premier league matches are taking place this weekend but they do involve the second and third placed teams. In Birmingham Manchester United visit the form team at St Andrews and whilst United will bounce back from last week's shock defeat in the FA Cup I am going for a draw in this match. At the Emirates Arsenal host Everton and my forecast is for a home win as Arsenal demonstrate they are true title challengers.

Only one game goes ahead in rugby union's premier league at Leicester and I'm going for the home team to prevail over Wasps in what will probably be a close game.

In the NFL it is the play-off weekend and I'm making two predictions in this sport. Firstly for the Green Bay Packers to defeat the Cardinals and secondly for the Bengals to defeat the Jets but it is likely both games will be tight.

That's it for the week and in summary the predictions are:

Premier League Football

Arsenal to beat Everton at 2/5
Birmingham to draw with Manchester United at 3/1

Premiership Rugby

Leicester to beat Wasps at 3/10

NFL Play-offs

Packers to beat the Cardinals at 10/11
Bengals to beat the Jets at 4/5
