Hello and welcome to our Super Saturday LIVE Blog with William Hill! -
It's a huge weekend in the Premier League with plenty of discussion to be had at both ends of the table. Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool are all in action and of course we have a certain North London Derby to look forward to tomorrow.
-
It's a big day for Ryan Giggs who will make his 1,000th career appearance if he features against Norwich City today
-
Here's a short tribute to the United player that made his debut at just 17 and has gone on to become a Premier League legend.
-
Under-fire Rafa Benitez (don't call him interim, he hates that) is hoping to guide his Chelsea side through a potentially difficult clash with West Brom. The Spaniard will be hoping his saving grace, Frank Lampard will ease the pain and the talismanic Blues midfielder is 9/2 to score the first goal today with William Hill, where you can also now cash in your bet if squeaky bum time all gets a little too much! Place your bets here: bit.ly
-
The 5.30 kick off sees Wigan welcome a resurgent Liverpool side. While the Latics could be the closest football has to Jekyll and Hyde, Brendan Rodgers has started to make The Reds purr at Anfield. Get on Luis Suarez to score and Liverpool to win at 2/1 with William Hill and receive a £25 free bet when you wager £25 bit.ly

Newcastle United travel to Capital One Cup winners Swansea City today with their French revolution in full swing.

A win for United today will take them 15 points clear at the top, something which will make this man very happy.

Saturday, 3 o'clock and the sun is shining. I think this is what football used to be like, right?by R_o_M via twitter 3/2/2013 1:50:14 PM -
Wigan away is definitely a game we should win, but also the type of game we usually dont win. The only suprise result would be a 0-0. #LFCby emptyMINDZ via twitter 3/2/2013 1:50:58 PM -
