Borussia M'gladbach will host Bayer Leverkusen for this fixture of the league. Both teams are one of the ambitious teams in this campaign. Of course, both teams will try to make a positive result. In my opinion, the hosts are favorites on the home field. Also, it should be said, Borussia have better results in the last mutual matches. On the other hand Bayer are in solid shape. They are undefeated in their last 5 matches. They have two consecutive victories. No doubt, the visitors have the potential to provide a strong resistance. Bayer is more offensive team. They tend to score a goal. However, Bayer is not very good team in their defense. My pick - Borussia M'gladbach to win.

The hearing will be on Jan. League leaders Celtic, who lost the game 2-1 with Christie missing a first half penalty, said they were astonished at the charge and would defend their player "vigorously". Media reports said Christie had needed groin surgery after the game following a separate tussle with Morelos.
Although I do not speak Korean, you can still communicate with your team-mates so I don't really understand if we are going to get punished if we do talk. You can just imagine there will be red cards left, right and centre if people are going to get punished for talking. I have heard that the coaching staff will be wearing masks and it probably sounds strange to everyone else but it is normal here.
But evidently, City have not forgotten and reflecting on his side's FA Cup semi-final defeat by the Gunners on Saturday, Guardiola said: "Opponents always deserve my respect and credit. I have all the respect for what Arsenal are on the pitch, not much off the pitch - but on the pitch, a lot. City were irritated by Arsenal's conduct earlier in the season when the Gunners approached Mikel Arteta to take the manager's job following the dismissal of Unai Emery.

If we've closed that window, we've got no flexibility. We have to go in with an inflated budget to cover ourselves in the event of injuries. Whereas if the window stays open, we can carry on trading and just top our squad up as and when needed. The people I've spoken to at the FA are broadly supportive. I think there would have to be some caveats and conditions in there because you wouldn't want anyone abusing it.

I'm happy with the energy levels and the commitment. There are a couple of decisions that could have gone either way but we just didn't really get anything clear-cut today. They are a good side but we wanted to impose the game on them. At times, I think we did that, and it is important to get the fans on side and we did. I have had a fantastic six or seven days to work with the lads every day. I absolutely loved it.
Christian Pulisic has scored in each of his last two Premier League appearances. Watford have lost five of their last six meetings with Chelsea. Watford have failed to win any of their last five away matches in the Premier League. Chelsea have won their last three Premier League games at Stamford Bridge.
The Spanish defender was signed to bolster their ailing defence in the winter window from Brazilian club Flamengo but has yet to feature for the first-team, though he was one of several first-team players to get a run out for the Under-23s against Manchester City on Friday. Video - Arteta: 'We can convince Aubameyang to stay'00:34 And Arteta has admitted that his new signing needs minutes and is likely to play on the south coast as Arsenal look to rescue a poor season with a good cup run.
FIFPro has since expressed their disappointment over the decision and said such sanctions play into the hands of "those who promote this kind of disgraceful behaviour. Gryshchuk, however, said the UAF was lenient with the sanctions. Regular punishment for such an action, for such gestures is a three-match ban," he added.
Those optimistic souls pretending that we still have a title race will take heart from the fact that Liverpool definitely wobbled last winter: shortly after that loss to City came a run of four draws in six games, which saw them overtaken at the top. Obviously something more spectacular would need to happen here but, well, if you haven’t got hope, what have you got? The kid’s a bit special In the first minute of Liverpool’s game against Leicester City, Trent Alexander-Arnold trundled forward and planted a shot straight at Kaspar Schmeichel.
It has not exactly been the sort of season that Burton Albion fans will write home about as they have struggled to find the back of the net on a regular basis and they currently find themselves well down the table as a result. The hosts lack of ability to score means that, perhaps unsurprisingly, they come into this match having won just once in their last seven league encounters.
Getafe punched well above their weight to secure 5th last term and only narrowly missed out on Champions League qualification. They had a sticky start to the new campaign with just one win landed in their first seven games; however they have gone from strength to strength since the end of September.
Odense will host Aalborg for this fixture of the league. I expect, this will be tense match for both sides. Both teams are very average teams in this season. True, the visitors are in better shape in their last matches. Nevertheless, I think, they have a very difficult task on the road. Also, we have Odense who's is not very good team in the last matches. They have three consecutive losses. True, the hosts are better team at home. I think, they have great motivation to break the poor series. In any case, Odense will try to make a positive result.

Tiger Woods stages his own backyard Masters Tiger Woods should have been trying to keep his Masters green jacket out of the clutches of the world's top golfers over the next four days - instead he will battle his 11-year-old son Charlie for it over putting competitions.

Ajax, on the other hand, have had a great campaign so far, at least in front of goal. They've had 3-0 wins over both Lille and Valencia and their 4-4 draw with Chelsea in the last matchweek showcased both their attacking prowess and defensive frailties. The goals they have scored have put them top of the group but their qualification is by no means assured with both Chelsea and Valencia sitting on 7 points with the Dutch champions.
There was no winner in the recent five games of those two teams. Lori won home match, with three goals scored and one conceded, prior to this row. There is no reason for this team to be big underdog in today game. Shirak is with one point behind, at the competition and they do not have any special well performance, before the season break.

The runaway Premier League leaders' unbeaten record this season came to a surprise end at Vicarage Road, with Ismaila Sarr scoring twice and setting up Troy Deeney for a third, ending their hopes of matching Arsenal's 'Invincible' 2003-04 season. They remain the overwhelming favourites to end the club's 30-year wait for the title and Klopp is eager to see his players dust themselves off and focus on the rest of the season.
Moyes has been under consideration for a return in come capacity since well before Silva's sacking but Everton's board hesitated after fans reacted angrily to the possibility. The Scot, however, is still very much in the frame and could yet return to the job he left for Manchester United in 2013, most likely in an interim capacity. Pereira told Sky Sports News he was "grateful" to be considered for the role, but was "still coach of SIPG and SIPG is a club close to my heart".

There were plenty of raised eyebrows when Sunderland chose to appoint Phil Parkinson back in October. The generally feeling seemed to be that The Black Cats needed to move towards a more aggressive, flamboyant approach, which not necessarily something that Parkinson is known for.

Klopp signs new Liverpool deal Outrageous Salah goal helps Liverpool top group Minamino, Liverpool, and the release clause almost too good to be true Fears Liverpool would not make it out of the Champions League group stages were cast away with a spirited 2-0 win at RB Salzburg on Tuesday.
The hosts are just 2 points above the relegation zone they are in good scoring form at this moment and should take advantage that Dalian despite having players like Hamsik, Rondon or Carasco on the pitch are no longer that good they have avoided relegation a long time ago and are conceding goals with ease right now, just drew last round 3-3 at home with Hebei, lost a couple of games in a row on the road as well.

The hosts have kept a clean sheet in only two of their last 10 league outings, and this problem area doesn’t ease at the Etihad either. There, Man City have conceded in four of their last five league matches, and they’re coming up against a rejuvenated Everton side on New Year’s Day.
The league will restart with the Reds 25 points clear at the top and potentially one win away from confirming their triumph. If Manchester City lose their game in hand - against Arsenal on Wednesday - Jurgen Klopp's side will seal the title with victory in the Merseyside derby at Everton on Sunday. The race for a top-four spot is less of a formality. City's two-year ban from European competition (appeal pending) means fifth place will be enough for a Champions League spot.
Ancelotti was all smiles as fans welcomed the Italian, but like Mikel Arteta, named as Arsenal successor to Unai Emery on Friday, would have left under no illusions about the size of the task to revive his new club. While Everton and Arsenal languish in 15th and 11th places respectively, Sheffield United continue to challenge for an unlikely place in the top four as their unbeaten away record in the league continued with a 1-0 win at Brighton & Hove Albion.

Caen and Grenoble are in the middle of standings, there is no big difference in a quality between those two clubs, and neither of them have ambitions for more than to stay in same division for the next season. Lens is in a little better form at this moment, in last round they are won a duel at away against third placed Lens, while Grenoble was defeated at home against Chateauroux, but they are own solid defense ability and their only goal for this duel would be to avoid defeat, and to keep their four points advantage against their tonight's opponent.
