There will be disappointment no doubt at not setting a new top flight record of 19 wins on the spin and not surpassing Arsenal's Invincibles of 2003-2004 - providing some much-needed nostalgic cheer for the red half of North London after the Europa League exit this week. But in the wider scheme of things, the Reds need just four more wins to seal their first league title in 30 years.
Since that opening day, where Copenhagen beat Lugano in the other fixture, there has only been one victory in the entire group with Malmo beating Lugano in matchweek three. That has led to three teams all being very closely grouped and qualification could still, realistically, go any way at the moment. The winner of this fixture would hold a massive advantage going into the final round of games whilst the loser would almost definitely be assured of playing their last game in the competition in December.

Spanish Primera. Team FC Villareal will host team Sevilla at home field. Hosts did 3 wins at the last 3 games played. There were victories with difference only one goal. Team Sevilla are coming after 2 draws in the last 2 matches. My bet on guests here. They are more higher in the table. Also they lost last their 2 h2h games. Their motivation is so high to win here ! Sevilla are near Champions League zone . So, they will play very good for 3 points in this game. I recommend to try this bet with me for a good odds !
Portugal forward Joao Felix scored two goals as Atletico Madrid moved into a Champions League spot with a crushing win at Osasuna. The 20-year-old Portugal forward, a £113m signing from Benfica last July, struck either side of half-time before three goals in the last 11 minutes. Marcos Llorente made it 3-0, and Alvaro Morata and Yannick Carrasco added to Osasuna's pain with late goals. Atletico, who had started the day sixth in the table, climb to fourth.
The 43-year-old ex-Spain midfielder said on his own Twitter feed (@Victor_SDA) that he had been the victim of harassment and blackmail and the matter was being dealt with by police. He added that sharing or disseminating such content without the individual's consent was a crime. The club said in a statement: "In relation to the events that have recently been discovered, and which have not as yet been verified, Malaga CF immediately suspends coach Victor Sanchez del Amo from his duties until a full investigation is carried out.
So at the prices, there's a bit of value in backing Espanyol to register in defeat and there's also the possibility that Los Blancos will slacken their grip on the game once in charge. We're opting for a 3-1 correct score, based on the hosts hitting an average of three goals per game in recent weeks and the visitors leaking 13 in their last five outings.
Both teams to score is my favorite bet for today, Valencia it's very good team in away games and in their counter attack . Real Madrid it's not in their best days in defense ! My prediction for this game is both team to score. O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I O I

Manchester United midfielder Jesse Lingard says he was "lost as a player and person" during the 2019-20 season. Lingard, who was limited to just nine Premier League starts, says the recent campaign had been "difficult for so many reasons". I never wanted to give up," Lingard posted on Instagram. I knew who I really was on and off the pitch. I knew having been there before I could get there again. It meant working harder than I'd ever done before.
McGoldrick: I sat watching this game and couldn't believe my eyes. Sheffield United making Chelsea look ordinary? This was United's fourth consecutive victory at Bramall Lane and they are still above Spurs and Arsenal with two games to go. David McGoldrick was the man of the moment for the Blades. Goals have not come easy for McGoldrick this season but he nailed both his opportunities and put Chris Wilder's boys in with a real chance of European football.
But just like that, it was all taken away from the United fans as reports emerged on the morning of deadline day that the club was looking at Josh King in a bid to solve their striking problems. King is a former United striker, he was in the reserves when a young Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was beginning to cut his teeth in management and the pair share an agent.
Atletico fans who can a get ticket. Anfield'," said Klopp. Emotions are important. Tonight they were obviously completely on the side of Atletico, but I am really looking forward to the second leg. We speak from time to time about the power of Anfield and the power a stadium can have and tonight you saw that. It's half-time and we're 1-0 down. The second half will be played in our stadium and they will feel it.
Munich weren't even in the Champions League places a few months ago but since replacing their manager, they have shown great improvement. They have won six league games in a row and scored 23 goals in doing so. They now top the table and look to make it six home league wins out of seven with a victory over RB Leipzig.
Long-serving Gunners manager Arsene Wenger was not a fan, saying: "You cannot say it is football any more. It is more rugby on the goalkeepers than football. You won't be surprised to hear such complaints were music to Pulis' ears. I always want angles to get players motivated, to put fire into their bellies and something for the supporters to feed off," he said. When Wenger first said it, called us a rugby team, it was the third time on the bounce we had beaten them at home.
Tanguy Ndombele, it was devastating and brutal. But it also felt like a diversionary tactic after another game Spurs had failed to win. It is now five matches since they last tasted victory, their worst run since the autumn of 2016. Unless they go to Germany and overturn RB Leipzig's one-goal advantage in their Champions League last-16 tie on Tuesday, it will be another campaign without a trophy. It will also be only the third time since 2003 that Tottenham will have ended the season without reaching the quarter-final of a cup competition.

both teams will chase the win here and I m pretty confident that is going to give to us a game with a lot of chances on both sides and at least 3 goals scored at the end combined!rkc did now won for 5 straight games and of course they are very close to relegation zone and versus terrible Sparta defense they should surely be able to score one or two goals and on the other hand Sparta did not won a game on the road since the second game on the road in the season so I expect from them one or two goals also!
Despite coming from an horrible streak of 5 losses in a row which have increased their gap to the top of the table, Cracovia seems to be favorite in this match vs Lechia: Cracovia can still count on one of the best defenses of the whole League and their attack has also been quite good, having scored an average of more than a goal per match. Cracovia comes from 3 wins in a row vs Lechia Gdansk and in the last 2 Lechia hasn't even been able to score any goal. Considering the good defense shown by Cracovia so far, Lechia should score no goal this time too and the visitors could win.

If you are talking about being deserving, he would be in it a long time ago," explained Rodgers.
