In recent weeks, Sardegna Arena has become a very tough place to go. Cagliari have won each of their last four at home, scoring a whopping 14 goals in the process. They're also now unbeaten in six in front of a home crowd, five of which they've won. Conceding goals has been a bit of a worry – Cagliari are without a clean sheet in three at home and have conceded seven goals in that time – but their ultra-effective forward-line has seen them through.
Barnsley are starting to get cut adrift at the bottom of the Championship. They have almost half as many points as the team in 21st, meaning their chances of surviving past this season are already slim. The Tykes are in terrible form, but will they finally be able to end their winless run when they host Hull City on Saturday?

After this match against Brighton and Hove Albion, it's the Merseyside derby against Everton in midweek. The Reds continue to be in fantastic form at home and host a Brighton side that struggle on their travels. With only one away win this season (against the side bottom of the table), this looks like another difficult weekend for the Seagulls. Go for Liverpool to win and be ahead at both half and full time.

After that near-miss, Liverpool finished way off the pace in 2014-15 - only managing fifth. They will not have enjoyed having to clap Mourinho's men as they picked up their third Premier League title with him. You can imagine the kind of abuse that poor Steven was subjected to as well. Ouch. Barcelona congratulate Real Madrid - 2007-08 That one must have smartedOf course - the Premier League didn't invent rivalry.
The home side tried to find a fresh spark with the introduction of Morelos and Jordan Jones, but the job was already done against a County side that rarely ventured beyond the half-way line. The Colombian did try to add to his 28 goals for the season with a smart chipped shot after noticing Baxter off his line.
I think it is just fine to try same option and here in another match from Germany Bundesliga and when I said that, I mean, of course on goals, what is very very real option. So, Wolfsburg is solid team this season and they are after two loses, 1-2 and 1-3 in last round won in league 4-2, as a guests. On the other side, Fortuna is team who is without win in last few matches but in last match, they are beat K'lautern in one fantastic match in Cup 5-2. It will be very interesting to watch this duel.
Darmstadt and Hannover will face each other in the upcoming match in the Second Bundesliga. Darmstadt this season have the following results: 10W, 13D and 7L. Meanwhile Hannover have 11W, 9D and 10L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
That's lost time in my opinion. We want England to be in the best position to go into the European Championship in 2022 and win it on home soil. It is a great opportunity for a new manager to come in and build. But if you go back to the initial interview process with Neville, we have the same problems now. It's the same names in the hat - Chelsea boss Emma Hayes and former Manchester City manager Nick Cushing - they were in the running before but they stepped out of the process for reasons which haven't been discussed.
Vardy, who has scored 17 goals to fire Leicester into third place in the Premier League this season, injured his glute in a 4-1 home win over West Ham United last week. It was feared Vardy would be out for several weeks but Rogers said the forward will be involved at Villa Park after Leicester were held to a 1-1 draw in the first leg.
Varzim is in 4th place with 26 points and they are 6 points less than second place Nacional. Varzim in home have 5 wins 1 draw and 2 loses. In total Varzim have 7 wins 5 draws and 3 loses. In home team they are a strong team and also for this match they are motivated to win to catch the second place and I think they will take all 3 points here. Against them is Academico Viseu that is in 11th place and have 20 points and they seem far from second place and the promotion and I think against a motivated team and more quality team like Varzim their chances to take points are minimal.
Deeney had headed a good chance straight at Gazzaniga just before the break, while Abdoulaye Doucoure shot into the side-netting early in the second half. Watford substitute Ignacio Pussetto, making his debut for the club, cleared an Erik Lamela effort off the line in stoppage time at the end of the match. Just 10.

Everyone knows what Glenn brings to the club, and he's an important member of the squad - on and off the pitch - and he showed that in abundance on Saturday at West Ham," manager Graham Potter said. I've always said he's got a big part to play here. He's happy and settled, he loves this club, and he's been the ultimate professional on and off the pitch. Murray first joined Brighton in 2008 and won the League One title with the club in 2011.
Almiron had already hit a post when O'Connell inadvertently diverted the ball into his own net while trying to cut out a pass by Matt Ritchie, making his first start since August.

Stand-in striker Aboubakar Kamara scored twice as Fulham overcame Queens Park Rangers to move up to fourth in the Championship table. Kamara, brought in to replace suspended top scorer Aleksandar Mitrovic, coolly took his chances after Rangers stunned the hosts with an early goal.

Manchester City coach Mikel Arteta has spoken with senior Arsenal figures and Wenger thinks the Spaniard is a good choice - as long as he has the right support. He's intelligent, he has passion and knowledge - but so does Ljungberg," said Wenger, who managed both former midfielders at Arsenal. Mikel Arteta has a great future. He learned a lot in his position as assistant coach. He will have to deal with the fact that he has no experience at that level.

United were doing well without Pogba but, if he is anywhere near his best form, he is going to enhance that team further.

Follow Sunday's Premier League liveBlades' week of VARA bizarre second goal in United's 2-0 home defeat by Newcastle on Thursday led Blades manager Chris Wilder to say that football was "sucking the life" from him. Whether or not today's events have changed his opinion, there is no doubt that the visitors' final 16 minutes would have been much more uncomfortable had the red card been allowed to stand.
A return to the Champions League is looking likely but Leicester's fomr has slipped a bit of late. They have lost three of their last five games in all competitons with the only wins coming at Brentford in the FA Cup last weekend and a 4-1 home win over West Ham United. Only one point had been earned from City's previous three home league games, so this isn't the dominant side that we saw earlier in the season.

Saints dominated the first half and took an early lead through Shane Long, who bundled in his third goal of the season from Moussa Djenepo's left-wing cross. Villa improved slightly after the break but the hosts went closest to extending their advantage as substitute Che Adams was denied his first Saints strike by a late goal-line block. Then as Villa threw caution to the wind in stoppage time, with goalkeeper Pepe Reina going up for a corner, Saints broke upfield and Stuart Armstrong raced on to a diagonal ball by Adams to slide the ball into an empty net and seal victory.
The visitors continued to threaten on the counter-attack in the second half, with Jota twice going close to a third for Wolves. The striker had a smart finish disallowed for offside before seeing another powerful effort tipped around the post by Ramsdale. Cook's header, which took a slight deflection off Traore, set up a nervous finish on the south coast, but Wolves defended resolutely to close out the win.
A tight game looks likely between these two clubs. They both have points on the table but aren't playing that well. Vitebsk have at least won a game but it took an own goal to secure the three points. With only two goals between them this season, a bet on under 2.5 goals being scored is the suggested wager.

It is a new and significant addition to the English football calendar and is designed to benefit clubs and their players. To accommodate the annual mid-season player break, the FA rescheduled the FA Cup fifth round to midweek and removed fifth-round replays from the calendar. This allowed the Premier League room in its calendar to have a split round of fixtures over two weekends. Prior to start of the 2019-20 season, all clubs accepted that FA Cup fourth-round replays, where required, would have to take place during the first week of the mid-season player break.
While he may differ to Gerrard in many ways, his sheer stubbornness and force of will is eerily reminiscent of the former captain. Henderson never knows when he is beaten and that mentality evidently rubs off on his team. It’s no surprise that during Liverpool’s first Premier League defeat this season Henderson was missing and, whilst he did start both of the games against Atletico Madrid, it’s hard to blame him for his team’s loss against a side imprinted with Diego Simeone’s mentality.
Klopp has also improved players who were at the club before he arrived, including midfielder Jordan Henderson - his captain - and young full-back Trent Alexander-Arnold. The German is the only Reds manager since Dalglish left (including the Scot himself during a second spell from January 2011 to May 2012) with a win percentage over 60. Dalglish delivered Liverpool their 16th, 17th and 18th league titles and now, after 30 years, the Reds have found a fitting successor to provide them with their 19th.
Manchester City saw their Premier League title defence absorb a potentially fatal blow on Friday as they let a 2-0 lead over Wolves slip, losing 3-2 in the dying embers after playing for 80 minutes with 10 men.
