Has the tide turned..

A more successful week of predictions last week with seven from ten correct and a profit of £4.50 on the week taking overall profits to £29.

Of course the main news of the week has surrounded Wayne Rooney and Manchester United where by Thursday it looked as if he was on his way out of the club only to sign a new five year contract yesterday - all very strange.

This week's predictions are concentrated on three sports with premier league football and rugby union, as well as the first ever Korean F1 Grand Prix.

In the Barclays Premiership the first game of the weekend sees Spurs who had an extraordinary game in the Champions League midweek host Everton who had a fine win over Liverpool last weekend. My prediction for this game is a draw as it is for the big game of the weekend in Manchester where City host Arsenal. My final football predictions are a home win for Sunderland over Aston Villa and an away win for the previously mentioned Manchester United at Stoke.

After a couple of European weekends the Aviva Premiership rugby continues this week. My predictions here are for Leicester to triumph over the once mighty Bath, Gloucester to win at home to Harlequins, London Irish to inflict Exeter's first home defeat of the season and in the big match Nothampton to win at Wasps.

The Formula 1 season is getting to the sharp end now and after qualifying in Korea it doesn't look good for the British McLaren pair of Lewis Hamilton or Jenson Button to win a second championship. The Red Bulls have again shut-out the front-row of the grid but whilst Vettel is on pole I am predicting Championship leader Webber to take the win and take a one step closer to being the third Australian World Champion. My final prediction is for Hamilton to make it on to the podium.

In summary the predictions this week are:

Barclays Premier League Football

Spurs to draw with Everton at 12/5
Sunderland to beat Aston Villa at 7/5
Manchester United to win at Stoke at 8/11
Manchester City to draw with Arsenal at 12/5

Aviva Premiership Rugby

Leicester to beat Bath at 5/18
Gloucester to beat Harlequins at 8/15
London Irish to win at Exeter at 4/9
Northampton to win at Wasps at 6/5

Korean Grand Prix

Webber to win at 9/2
Hamilton to podium at 11/10
