Premier League previews - Telegraph Stat of the game: In seven visits to Villa Park in the league, Swansea have lost all seven, failed to score and have conceded 19 goals. Prediction: Villa 2 Swansea 1 Blackburn Rovers v Stoke City Ewood Park Kick-off: 15.00 GMT. Referee: Lee Mason (Matches 12, R0 Y34). While one result cannot save a season, Blackburn's remarkable win at Old Trafford not only lifted the team off the foot of the Premier League but gives Steve Kean and his players renewed confidence. They could be boosted by the return of Gaël Givet, following a heart scare, while Junior Hoilett, David Dunn and Martin Olsson could also be available. Stoke may be without Andy Wilkinson, who limped off at Wigan. Stat of the game: If Blackburn win it will be the first time in 46 games that they have won consecutive matches. Prediction: Blackburn Rovers 1 Stoke City 0 Queens Park Rangers v Norwich City Loftus Road Kick-off: 15.00 GMT. Referee: Lee Probert (Matches 12, R0 Y33). Expect goals between these two promoted teams. Norwich have not kept a clean sheet in eight months, and both teams are missing key defenders. For QPR, Anton Ferdinand and Fitz Hall will miss out, while Ritchie de Laet and Marc Tierney are expected to be absent for Norwich. With both teams possessing robust front lines and an open, expansive style, the game is likely to be won by the team that defends the better. Stat of the game: Rangers have gone seven games without a win, the worst current run in the Premier League. Prediction: Queens Park Rangers 2 Norwich City 2 Wolverhampton Wanderers v Chelsea Molineux Kick-off: 15.00 GMT. Referee: Neil Swarbrick (Matches 5, R1 Y17). Andre Villas-Boas says changes are 'necessary" but his options are limited. John Mikel Obi and Branislav Ivanovic are still injured, but Jose Bosingwa should start, for Paulo Ferreira, as could Frank Lampard and Fernando Torres. Mick McCarthy will give debuts to Emmanuel Frimpong, on loan from Arsenal, and Eggert Jonsson, signed from Hearts. Nenad Milijas is still suspended. Stat of the game: This will be the 50th league meetings between these teams at Molineux. Wolves have won 22, Chelsea 15 with 12 drawn. Prediction: Wolves 0 Chelsea 1. Fulham v Arsenal Craven Cottage Kick-off: 17.30 GMT. TV: Live on Sky Sports 1 Referee: Peter Walton (Matches 10, R1 Y31). The success or otherwise of the festive period for both teams will be defined by the result of this game. Victory for either club would represent an unbeaten and highly satisfactory sequence of three matches over the past week. Yet defeat would leave both Martin Jol and Arsène Wenger ruing missed opportunities. Wenger is seriously considering resting top scorer Robin van Persie. Stat of the game: Arsenal have won seven of their 10 Premier League visits to Fulham. Prediction: Fulham 1 Arsenal 1
