Wolves captain Roger Johnson makes a return to his former hunting ground for the first time
since his £8m transfer from Birmingham to Wolves last Summer and will expect the usual boo's a
former player at any club gets.
Here's the tale of the tape for this Derby tie.
MATCH FACTS
Wolves have won the Cup 4 occasion's 1893,1908,1949 and 1960.
Arsenal face Leeds in a repeat of last season's FA Cup 3rd round tie, with the Gunner's winning
3-1 at Elland Road in a replay. Thierry Henry will be named in the Gunners squad having officially
become an Arsenal player again for two months on-loan. The tale of the tape for these two sleeping
giants of English football are as follows.

For me, this game is harder than the Villa game. Villa is a team that we've dominated at home over
the past decade, whereas West Brom away is one of those Jekyll and Hyde games. You don't know what
West Brom team is going to turn up, but they are capable of getting something out of us. Despite
our current run of form, the WBA forums back this view up and are filled with a mixture of cautious
optimism and soul crushing despair.
Norwich 1-2 Arsenal
Another game, another win. I've not dusted that little phrase down for a while now but it looks
nice in print (and in pixels). Since losing at our lovely neighbours on October 2nd, we have
registered seven wins and one draw in eight games fine form indeed.
An ice age ago Arsenal played their last game, would I be correct in thinking we beat WBA? And
our last away fixture was .... remind me?
Before the Interlull
Very excited to see us back playing Norwich. Lovely town, good beer and pubs, beautiful
countryside.
Beaten fair and square in Madrid on Tuesday (0-4), the Olympique Lyonnais faces its toughest
resilience test today. In order not to lose confidence in itself and sink into pessimism, the club
must avoid a defeat in the stadium where the Champion of France, Lille, is waiting for it. And even
if the LOSC also suffered a big setback against Inter Milan this week, this encounter is the clash
of the 11th L1 matchday.

Money, hope and pride. That's what is at stake today. And people thought it was
about a simple football game...
Money, because between 2003 and 2010, OL's presence in Champions League allowed
them to pocket 21 million Euros each year on average.

Funny how time passes sometimes... Had Lyon's calendar been different, the resounding win last
weekend against their worst enemy, Saint-Etienne (1-4), would have lifted the club for weeks; but
due to the incoming hurdle in CL next week (who said wall ?), this win was quickly set aside to
concentrate on José's Jazz Band coming to Lyon.
