Former Arsenal and Germany striker Lukas Podolski has joined Turkish side Antalyaspor on a free transfer. The 2014 World Cup winner was a free agent after leaving Japanese side Vissel Kobe. The 34-year-old was part of the Kobe side that won its first trophy, the Emperors Cup, earlier this month alongside Spain legends David Villa and Andres Iniesta. Podolski scored 31 goals in 82 games for Arsenal between 2012 and 2015.
Manchester City, meanwhile, have found the net in all but one of their league outings this term. This, along with Leicester failing to score in just one of their away games this season, makes Both Teams to Score look like an excellent value bet.
Luka Elsner's Amiens have hit a major roadblock in recent weeks with four extremely poor defeats spitting in the face of the face of the six games unbeaten prior to this. Their defence was never great before these defeats but they have really capitulated in the last few games with the Unicorns conceding a whopping 14 goals in their last three games. They now sit in 17th place with the second most goals leaked in Ligue 1.

We need to have the right structures and people in place to develop their careers. I know from my own experiences the value of strong support throughout the coaching journey. The scheme, supported by the Football Association, is jointly funded by the Premier League and the PFA, with bursaries to each participant from the placement club. Candidates must have a minimum of a Uefa B qualification and commit to Uefa A coaching licence.

Varde SE is going to face Zalaegerszegi TE. The hosts of this match are not favorites. The hosts of this match lost the previous games by more than one goal and they usually concede goals at home. The visitors are a much better team and they should beat Varda. However, this match should be balanced and we will see here at least 3 goals. Both teams are not the best in the defensive but they play offensive football and that's why I pick here over 2.5 goals. I think that it will be 1:2 for Sale or even more goals

Napoli have turned their season around and are up to sixth in Serie A. They lead Inter 1-0 from the away leg so will be confident of making it through to the Italian Cup final. With seven wins from their last nine games, Napoli are in good form and can make home advantage pay here. Inter got past Ludogorets Razgrad in the Europa League but have seen their form in Italian football dip of late. Go for a home win.
These are the first two clubs above the relegation zone at this moment with Augsburg having 32 points while Mainz has 31 points and they sit 4 and 3 points above the relegation zone right now with Bremen winning this round and coming with same number of points as 3rd from bottom Dusseldorf right now, but between these two I will favor the guests to win this one not only because they beat Mainz with 2-1 at home earlier this season but because they won recently with 3-0 away from home at Schalke which is stronger than Mainz and played quite well on the road away at a strong Hertha Berlin side in excellent form after the break.

The visitors head into this clash on the back of a huge win at playoff contenders Preston. They’re just the third team to win at Deepdale this term, following West Brom and Man City. That’s a real positive for this Reading side, who head into this week’s clash searching for a fourth straight win.

Academica Clinceni will host Chindia Targoviste for this fixture of the league. I expect this will be tough match for both sides. Both teams are one of the weak teams in this campaign. Both teams are currently bottom of the table. In my opinion, the hosts are small favorites. Academica have advantage at home stadium. Also, Academica have better results in the last mutual matches. Nevertheless, I think, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance. I expect, the visitors will try to pick up the victory on the opposite stadium. In previous game Chindia is won 2-1 against Viitorul Constanta.
Musongati is certainly one of the best teams in this League, actually being 2nd just 4 points far from Le Messager Ngozi: however, Rukinzo could stay unbeaten in my opinion, because they are living a very positive period, considering that they come from 3 home wins in a row and they have even conceded no goal at all in those matches. The last time Musongati has played here, it has been a very hard game for them, considering that they have lost by 4-1, so I don't think they can be considered favorite today. Rukinzo could even win with a bit of luck.
Herediano is big favorite at this pitch, since they are one of the top league clubs, while U C R is fighting relegation in the competition. UCR is having the worst form and the defense with the most goals conceded in the season. They are having a lot of issues in the back, and cannot keep their net even with one goal per game.
The trouble flared in Monday's match when Lapadula converted an 83rd-minute penalty to cut Cagliari's lead to 2-1 and then rushed to grab the ball out of the net. Sweden international Olsen got there first and hoofed the ball away, prompting an angry remonstration from Lapadula. Olsen then shoved Lapadula with his shoulder, Lapadula appeared to headbutt Olsen on the chin and then Olsen pushed Lapadula to the ground before also falling over, clutching his face.

I think that this odds is really amazing on goals in this match from Qatar elite league and I will bet on that option. So, Umm Salal is team who is team who is in this moment last on the table and they need to play better this match, if they want to win very important points. 2-2, 1-2 and 2-1, they are played in last three matches, and if we know that they will today play against last team on the table - than it is clear that this match will be similar and efficient. I will try that here.
Their blistering style of play has hardly allowed their opponents to get hold of the ball and they have conceded the third least chances of any team in Ligue 1 over the last four games as a result. Strasbourg have lots of reasons to be hopeful ahead of this clash against giants Lyon and the Stade de la Meinau will play a big part in that. They have been incredible at their home stadium this season with seven wins in their ten matches at the Meinau so far.
He signed a new contract last May to keep him at Chelsea the end of the current season but is believed to be keen to move in order to play more regularly and help his chances of featuring prominently for his country at Euro 2020. He's been a great professional here, who has continued to train professionally without many opportunities," Lampard added. But I still have to make a decision for the football club, and nothing is done yet.
Augsburg and Wolfsburg will face each other in the upcoming match in the Bundesliga. Augsburg this season have the following results: 7W, 6D and 12L. Meanwhile Wolfsburg have 9W, 9D and 7L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Internacional will be confident of finishing the job off here. They are strong at home and not since 2011 has a side come away from Internacional with a win in this competition. Their opponents will have wanted to get a lead from the home leg but are struggling for goals. Internacional can get the win in this game but a side bet on them winning with under 2.5 goals in the game might be worth a go too.

A 2-1 home defeat to Carlisle at the weekend ended Walsall's 6 match unbeaten run in the league and has the side back under pressure. Scoring goals isn't proving problematic for the hosts but keeping them out certainly is; something that's more than reflected by the fact that both nets have been hit in 5 of their last 6 league outings.

Premier League promotion hopefuls Leeds United went top of the Championship and moved seven points clear of third-placed Fulham with a comfortable win over local rivals Huddersfield. The hosts raced into a third-minute lead when full-back Luke Ayling smashed home a superb volley from Jack Harrison's deep cross. Patrick Bamford wrapped up the win with a close-range finish after Town goalkeeper Jonas Lossl could only tip Ben White's header into his path, while Harrison also hit the woodwork for the hosts.

Gillingham is in 11th place with 32 points while Portsmouth is in 9th place with 34 points. Both teams are fighting for promotion playoffs. Portsmouth seems to be more good and more advanced than Gillingham however today I expect a balanced game. Both teams wants to win but of course they don't want to lose because one lose can create a gap between them and teams in play off places. Both teams have qualities and Gillingham is in a great form in home matches until now with 6 matches without lose. It's a strong match with teams that are good so I expect a draw here.

It was always going to be difficult to take over from Pep Guardiola at Bayern. The Spaniard had won over his squad and created arguably the most beautiful football ever witnessed in the Bundesliga. Ancelotti, the pragmatist, may have finally won a league title again, but he lost the battle with the players. At Napoli in 2018, Ancelotti was expected to take the club that had challenged Juventus so closely for the title that one step further.

Aston Villa desperately need a win if they are to avoid relegation. Three games in a week have produced just two points and just a couple of goals. Their form just doesn't look good enough to keep them in the Premier League. Wolves are chasing a place in the Champions League and it's not beyond them. They have won both of their games since the season resumed. Go for them to make it three with a win here.
Just one more effort is needed for West Bromwich Albion. They should have clinched promotion already but two draws and a loss in their last three games have seen them stagger rather than march towards the Premier League. A home game against a QPR side with little to play for is an ideal final fixture. Their home record is good and QPR aren't always at their best away from home with only 23 goals scored. It might not look pretty but Albion can get the vital win.
A game the visitors had in the palm of their hand was all of a sudden up for grabs. The ebb and flow made for compulsive viewing but still the chances mainly fell Celtic's way. A Christie cross almost made its way straight into the net. A break involving Christie and Jonny Hayes then set up Edouard. His fourth big chance of the game - an instinctive first-time toe-poke - brought out the third big save from Johnsson.

Gilport Lions will against Morupule Wanderers in match Botswana league. My prediction this match could be the win for Gilport Lions with margin score is 2 goals. Gilport Lions have better result on last 5 match due to Gilport Lions have won in 2 match, 1 match is draw and 2 match is lose. Meanwhile, Morupule Wanderers have not good result on last 5 match due to Morupule Wanderers only have won in 1 match, 1 match is draw and 3 match is lose. Therefore, I think that Gilport Lions can beat Morupule Lions due to on last season Gilport Lions can defeat Morupule with score 0-2.
