Couch Warrior: Your guide to all the weekend's sport action on TV Manchester United's Wayne Rooney will be hoping his team can get the job done against Newcastle United this weekend. NOT planning on leaving the couch this weekend? Here's everything you'll need, besides a map to the fridge. The best of the weekend's A-League clashes comes late Sunday as Melbourne Victory and Newcastle duke it out for fourth spot. Both teams are coming off disappointing results, with the Victory eking out a 0-0 draw against sixth-placed Central Coast last week, while Newcastle was given a 2-0 touch-up by Sydney FC. It's also the A-League's 1000th game. Newcastle featured in the very first game and will be hoping it can avoid the same fate as it experienced against Adelaide United on that day in 2005. Victory carries heavy favouritism into this one at home, with TAB offering odds of $1.80. If you think Newcastle can scrape a draw, you can have it at $3.55, while a Newcastle win is $4. Jeff Green has been the shining light in a disappointing season Boston Celtics season so far. ESPN - Saturday, 11.30am A couple of years ago this would have been a marquee matchup between two NBA heavyweights. But with Bawwwston stinking it up in the worst division in the league (although admittedly at the top of it, despite its woeful 8-12 record), they need to start delivering at home if they're to salvage their year. With superstars Paul Pearce and Kevin Garnett departing in the off-season, the Celtics are bereft of matchwinning talent, with Jeff Green leading on points average with just 16.8 per game and a handful of others in the low teens. Denver, on the other hand, have been relying on Ty Lawson's 19.3 points per game, with contributions from a swag of others, on their way to 11 wins from 18 games. With Denver winning only half of its eight games at home, the odds for the Nuggets to win by between 1-10 points look tasty at about $2.40. Fox Sports football commentator Mark Bosnich previews the pick of the round 15 EPL action. Here are 22 words you probably never thought you'd read this far into the 2013/14 season: Manchester United need this win to not only remain in the Premier League hunt, but also to leapfrog Newcastle on the table. The Red Devils' stunningly indifferent start to the season has them languishing in ninth place, while Newcastle is seventh and should be higher, if not for their disappointing 3-0 loss against Swansea in the previous round. Now four wins behind league leaders Arsenal, United will be desperate for the points at home, and in a bonus for Aussie fans, kick-off is at a reasonably palatable hour. Despite their form and position on the table, the Old Trafford advantage has Man U installed as a heavy favourite. For a little more value, if you think they'll lead at both half-time and at game's end, TAB has them at $2 for the double. Zach Johnson took the honours on day one of the World Challenge in California. FOX SPORTS 3 - Saturday (7am) and Sunday (5.30am) American golf has an interesting interpretation of "world," considering there are only four countries represented among the 18 invitees to this event in California, but at least it's a crack field. Tiger Woods is, as always, the headline act, and is four shots behind leader Zach Johnson after a one-under first round. Rory McIlroy also made the trip to Sherwood Country Club, as did most of the top Americans. Our lone representative, Jason Day, probably should have saved himself the trouble and just stayed down under after his Australian swing. He carded an opening round four-over 76 and is next to last. Woods is usually at ridiculous odds, even when he's taking on more than 100 players with four rounds still in front of him. So the TAB might be feeling generous by offering $3.50 for him in this significantly reduced pool. For a bit of value, Zach Johnson is at $41 after the first round, which isn't bad considering he's leading after ripping the back nine apart with five birdies, and is high on confidence after a barnstorming end to the PGA season that included seven top 10 finishes and a win at the BMW Championship from his final eight starts. Both Australia and England will be ruing a number of missed opportunities after honours were declared even after Day One of the Second Test in Adelaide. CHANNEL NINE - Saturday and Sunday, 11am You might have noticed this was on. The Adelaide grass highway means we'll certainly see a full weekend's action, with another serve on Monday, as Australia looks to step on England's throat by taking a 2-0 series lead. Look for a Sunday spinfest, with the tweakers already proving their worth on day one, despite there being barely a pitch crack in sight. The oldest-looking 26-year-old in Aussie sport, Nathan Lyon, might just have a field day. It's fluctuating more often than Shane Watson's consistency, but at time of typing Australia is still a heavy favourite at around the low $2-something mark. England has pushed way out close to $5, despite arguably sharing the points on day one.
