Unmarked defender Lewis's swerving strike was the Canaries' first goal in open play since New Year's Day, or more than 700 minutes of action. The clean sheet was also only the home side's second of the season.

Meanwhile, Bologna have drawn three of their last five trips in this competition, which sets them up for another result here.

What happened last time?Rangers suffered their only defeat of Group G - and first European loss in 10 games - when they fell to an injury-time sucker punch in Switzerland. Gerrard's side led through Alfredo Morelos and were on track for a well-deserved point after Roger Assale's leveller.

It was a sort of homecoming for a man who had stood on the Kop watching Bill Shankly's Liverpool during his days as a French teacher at the city's Alsop Comprehensive School 30 years earlier. There were some inside the club who questioned how it would work even on the day he arrived. The answer was simple: it didn't. The arranged marriage did not last. Evans left in November. Houllier's pursuit of perfection was all-consuming - so much so that he almost paid with his life.

That streak includes victories in their last three away league visits to QPR. Meanwhile, as Preston manager, Alex Neil has won more Championship games against QPR than any other side (four). Given that form and considering QPR’s defensive troubles, we’re going with a 1-0 away win here.

Wisla Plock will host Rakow Czestochowa for this fixture of the league. Both sides are very average teams in this season. Both teams have a poor results in the last matches. In my opinion, the Wisla have fallen in their shape. I believe, they are not convincing team. In last game Wisla Plock played in a 2-2 draw with weak Wisla. Also, we have Rakow who's is also not very good team in recent times. True, in previous game Rakow is won 2-0 against Piast Gliwice. So, I expect, Rakow will try to provide a strong resistance. They tend to score a goal.
Newcastle manager Steve Bruce said he had followed Bentaleb, who was dropped from the Schalke first team for disciplinary reasons last March, from the player's time at Spurs. He's played at the highest level now for the last four or five years but he will come in hungry and feeling he has something to prove and will give us the competition we obviously need," he said.
Lawro's prediction: 0-2Simon's prediction: City have been flying since the restart, and I had a feeling they would beat Liverpool. They still have a lot to play for this season in the FA Cup and Champions League even though the title has officially gone now - there is no way Pep will let things just fizzle out in the Premier League. With Ings doing so well, Southampton might score, but City will get more.

Well usually I would skip this but given all the circumstances I think this is a very realistic bet. Osasuna are the better team overall but for this game they have way too many missing.They will be without Chimy Avilla, Garcia D, Oier , Ibanez R, Martinez Calvo J, Roncaglia F and Ruben due to illness. On the other hand Leganes will be without Bustanzia U, Carillo G , Szymanowskia A, Rodriguez O...Given the performances both teams are showing and the fact that Leganes are in kind of must win situation I think that a draw here is the most realistic option for sure .
There's not much praise you can heap on this red machine that hasn't already been done so some time ago. This was far from routine, but this team always seem to find a way. Indeed, Liverpool's Sat Nav remains firmly centred upon on a direct route to a 19th league title in their history. A staggering 26th win in 27 Premier League matches this term is just one of the latest jaw-dropping stats they have racked up.
He has definitely taken a more pragmatic approach since taking over as manager, taking a little bit of the risk out of it while still playing some really good stuff and their campaign has been just about perfect up until now. The team's experienced enough - they've had Champions League the last couple of seasons and the Europa League - so they know what it takes at this level of football to get results.

Juventus Managua fc are going to host Real Madrid the following morning in the match in the premier division of Nicaragua. Juventus Managua fc are very strong when they play at their home ground, they beat Diriangen fc by three goals to nothing at this venue. Looking at the visitors performance they are not good shape despite their last draw against the strong team Real Esteli where they have shared the spoil and both of them didn't find the back of the net so to my opinion I think the home team will beat the visitors by more than two goals at the end of the match.
Norwich have taken four points from their past eight league games. They play Brighton (h), Watford (a) and West Ham (h) in their next three fixturesBrighton were turned over by Manchester United on Tuesday, but this is an opportunity for them to take another big step towards survival and take a lot of pressure off their run-in. They will know all of that, which is why I think they will go to Carrow Road for a win.

Bloem Celtic against Cape Town City here, meeting of the Premier Soccer League South African soccer that is played tomorrow afternoon at 18:30. Slightly favored guests for the victory of the match come from a 2-2 external draw against Maritzburg United while guests are coming from a 2-1 defeat against Black Leopards.

Braga remained a danger, however, and Paulinho looped a far-post header too high before Trincao curled a shot through Borna Barisic's legs and just past the post. There was no real indication of the tide turning as the second half began with Braga again in the ascendancy. Glen Kamara's misplaced header put Joao Palhinha in on goal, with the striker's heavy touch getting the hosts off the hook. A miscued Morelos cross from the right flank then deceived Matheus and almost ended up in the top corner.
The offside flag had gone up - although he appeared to be onside so it is likely a goal would have been given by VAR had he hit the back of the net. He did finally beat Martin with a fine 20-yard curling effort but the whistle had already gone for a foul by Djenepo - again a debatable decision. But Southampton, who have only scored 18 goals and conceded 36 this season, will need to play better than this if an eight-season stay in the Premier League is going to be extended.
