A "special" coach. Arsenal had won the previous season while going unbeaten and Mourinho made some big signings of his own to take them on. Petr Cech, Didier Drogba, Ricardo Carvalho and Arjen Robben - to name half of his summer additions - would all play a huge part in the crushing title win. And it was a procession in the end. Chelsea won 29 of their 38 Premier League games - losing just once - and incredibly conceding just 15 goals.
Gama will host Real Brasilia for this fixture of the league. I believe, the hosts will try to make a positive result. Gama is one of the best teams in this league. Hosts have a more offensive team. They have a great attack. In any case, the hosts will try to dominate from the start match. They tend to score a goal. On the other hand Real FC is very average team in this season. Also, the visitors have highly variable results. So, Gama is really better team than their opponent. Also, they were a better team in the last mutual matches.
The matter is further complicated by an agreement between Uefa and the FA and Premier League to avoid scheduling domestic matches involving top-flight clubs in Champions League weeks if possible. Neither Liverpool nor Tottenham have a European game in the week commencing 24 February. However, Liverpool have televised Premier League matches against West Ham and Watford on 24 and 29 February respectively, so would have to play twice in 48 hours if the FA Cup replay was arranged for that 'spare' week.

Derby have dropped five points from a possible six with a loss to Bristol City and a draw with Huddersfield Town. Meanwhile, Fulham have also dropped five points in their last two league matches, having drawn with Millwall and lost to Barnsley. Before losing to Bristol, Derby had established a good run, winning three straight matches; they recovered a bit in their last game as they drew with Huddersfield but they will feel let down after failing to hold on to the lead for the last nine minutes.
Since the band kicked off, I am much more of an occasional five-a-side player - we had a kickaround in the park this week actually - but I'm still a massive fan of grass-roots football and a huge supporter of the men's and women's game. Women's football has made such amazing leaps and bounds in the past few years and I am really disappointed to see it is not coming back after the season was halted early by the coronavirus pandemic.
Even though the odds have been dropping on the over lines and the over 2.5 goals bet is not priced that good around 1.50 at this moment I did not expect such high odds on the over 3.5 goals and they are for sure worth a try here and I say this because Munich is well capable of scoring 3 times if not even more in this one doing so in a couple of recent home games which they won 3-1 in the end but Bayern has a good attack at this reserve level and so will back the over 3.5 goals bet.

It is as much due to their dominance that it is unlikely Liverpool will have be able to enjoy such an occasion and merely be going through the motions. The crowd seem a bit bored for much of the game until 'We're going to win the league' chants in injury time. Even Jurgen Klopp's triple fist-pump to the Kop post game seemed a little forced.

Trabzonspor will travel to Antalyaspor with a view to clinching all three points and I have a nice feeling about the away team in this match. I imagine it will be a smooth match but I see some benefit for the away team in this match. The home team has a couple of injuries that will make it to the home team in this match.
The verdict - who will make it?Sutton: "You cannot look at the run-in for any of these sides and say they have easier or harder fixtures than their rivals because most of them have dropped points in unexpected places this season. The only thing consistent about all of these teams from fourth down to 11th - and even if you wanted to chuck in 12th-placed Southampton as well - is their inconsistency.

The first game to be called off was Manchester City against Arsenal last Wednesday, and then the entire league was postponed on Friday after Gunners boss Mikel Arteta and Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi tested positive for coronavirus.
Paper Round’s view: Mourinho loves experienced defenders, and with Alderweireld and Vertonghen together he has a pairing that can be used as he develops players like Davinson Sanchez and Juan Foyth. Extending Vertonghen’s stay also has the benefit of freeing up funds to be spent elsewhere, which will be useful if Christian Eriksen leaves for nothing in the summer.

Nice have won this competition three times in the club's history but the most recent triumph was in 1997 so there is definitely a fever in the city to get back on top of this tournament. They have a relatively easy opponent for their first match and have some good form to take into this game.
I think it is pretty safe to say we are going to see a lot of goals in this one, Bayern is of course favorite for the win but for that win the x surely must score 2 goals or maybe even three because Herta with new coach is playing so much better and surely versus Bayern they Will be very motivated to make a good result so it is Even Possible that Herta Will score first and that would be perfect for this bet because that Will open the game and give to us very fun and interesting game with at least 4 goals scored

Dinamo Brest will against Shakhtyor in match Belarusian Premier League. My prediction this match could be the win for Dinamo Brest with margin score is 1 goal. Dinamo Brest have not good result on last 3 match in league due to Dinamo Brest only have won in 1 match and 2 match is lose. Meanwhile, Shakhtyor have better result on last 3 match in league due to Shakhtyor have draw in 2 match and 1 match is lose. Nevertheless, my prediction that Dinamo Brest can beat Shakhtyor due to Dinamo Brest always won on last 2 match in Belarus Cup and Super Cup with score 2-0.
Aleksandar Mitrovic has been directly involved in 10 goals in 11 Championship games at Craven Cottage this season, scoring nine and adding one assist. He continued his fine scoring record in the league with another strike at Luton on Boxing Day. He’s consistently punished the struggling sides in the Championship, while we expect that to continue this week. With 10 goals in his last 11 games for club and country, we’re backing Mitrovic to score again here.
Maybe the biggest difficulty will be the loss of the chance to earn coefficient points, which means even when they get back, City will be a lower seed than they would have expected to be and therefore find it harder to reach the latter stages of the competition.

Saint-Etienne have become draw masters in the Europa League but really need a win this week, while Gent are unbeaten in Group I and looked very confident on the road. All of the eight group games between these two clubs combined have seen both teams score and we’re backing goals to be scored at both ends of the pitch on Thursday as well.
There were suggestions something was not right early in the match when midfielder Oliver Norwood lost possession far too easily on a couple of occasions before Egan got caught up in an unnecessary altercation with Joelinton which earned him a yellow card.

West Brom head to this game as firm favorites, and though they have not won in three of their last four matches, their quality has been up there for all to see. What they lack in defence, they compensate in attack and playing at home against Middlesbrough should not be a major worry for them. West Bromwich Albion have scored in 14 of their last 15 matches, and have scored two or more goals in five of their last 10 matches. We believe they will continue with their scoring form here. Meanwhile, they have no clean sheet in the last five matches. On the other hand, Middlesbrough have scored in 10 of their last 15 matches, but have just one clean sheet in their last 11 away matches. Going by this, we expect both sides to score but we feel West Bromwich Albion will outscore Middlesbrough. We will go for a 2-1 win for West Bromwich Albion.

The away team does not win often they have having a lot of problems recently when it comes to winning matches. They are giving away to many goals, not scoring enough on their own either. They have not won in their past 7 away matches, they have mostly lost during these matches. The home team has some very good form against this team winning most of the recent matches against them when playing the home fixture. The home team looks far too strong in this match and enough quality players in this team to be able to score a winning score.
