The most impressive thing about the side in recent weeks has been their defence, with the team keeping four clean sheets in a row. They’ve only conceded 14 goals all season and Ainsworth will be hoping his side can continue on this great form at the back, a feat that will be helped by no major injury worries for the head coach.
As Panteras will have enjoyed the opportunity to regroup over the last few weeks, and they should be feeling fairly confident heading into this match. Their home form doesn’t look overly impressive on paper, but their two recent defeats came against Porto and Benfica and they have won two, drawn two and lost none of their four hostings of teams outside that traditional Portuguese Big Three.
It has been a poor season for the Gunners, who are currently sat tenth in the table. However, their recent resurgence under Mikel Arteta will give the fans hope and a solid signing might just be able to send them back up to at least challenge for the Europa League positions. With Calum Chambers recent injury, a centre-back will be something to look for this January, someone like Nathan Ake for instance.

I don't see Jose Mourinho allowing another loss on Thursday. Also Tottenham have been dominating this game, though this season Brighton won 3-0. When playing at home Tottenham have not lost to Brighton. Tottenham have just one loss that happened this season out of five played against their opponent.
Well, we seem to have a totally different Smorgon this year as they are strong in the 1 St place and also with a high standard defense as they only conceded one goal in the season overall, an away goal by the way.
It's disappointing and frustrating for us all because his ankle was the main concern for everybody at the start of the season," Bruce told Sky Sports News. He jumped for a ball against Everton a few weeks ago and we've not been able to get him right and just when we think we've turned the corner with it unfortunately he's suffered a setback.
Zidane courts Mbappe ahead of PSG meeting Zinedine Zidane has re-stoked rumours Real Madrid will make a move for Kylian Mbappe ahead of Paris Saint Germain's trip to the Bernabeu in the Champions League.

It's a special match for me but we mustn't waste energy on something personal when we have a collective goal which is to bring home the three points," the chain-smoking Sarri told reporters on Saturday.

Inter and Milan have both been rejuvenated by a string of signings that have proved to be successful at both ends likes of Lukaku ,Zlatan ibra, Eriksen etc. A straight win for either of the teams will be a tricky venture but the possibility of a high scoring games is the most likely possibility since both teams posses the relevant strike power to dispose off the other team. Milan have has a string of wins since return of Zlatan and will seek to maintain the record while inter will aim to keep in touch with Juventus

Half of Dordrecht’s home games have produced over 2.5 goals and the average amount of goals scored per home game is 3.80, which ties in well with our final scoreline prediction of 2-1. 70% of Excelsior’s away games have produced over 2.5 goals which is partly down to the visitors only keeping clean sheets in 30% of their away games, while the hosts have only kept clean sheets in 10% of their home games.
COMING UP Football never stops. Or at least it doesn’t seem to, whether you want it to or not. So of course there’s a full round of Premier League games this midweek, regardless of whether any of us asked for them. The big one is of course Chelsea v Arsenal, but Aston Villa v Watford should be good, Sheffield United have a decent chance of getting something from Manchester City while Bournemouth v Brighton should be grimly interesting too.
Instantly, when he picked up the ball and got his first assist for me, when he went on his dribble, you could see his ability. That's when I thought 'OK, he sees things, this is a good player'. Now Bale was up and running, he started to relax. He was joking, laughing - he's always been one to have a laugh," Earnshaw adds. At times you could see Gareth's cheekiness. Then you could tell he was comfortable at that level.
It is pretty clear that home team will easy win new three points in this match from Austria Bundesliga and that is pretty clear, for all who are following this league. So, Salzburg is really the best team in this country in last few years and this one, they will again very easy won new title, that is clear. They are in last two official matches against this rival played this year, and won, believe it or not, 6-0 and 7-0. Of course, St. Polten is now in better form, but still Salzburg is much better team, that is clear.

Preview: West Ham v EvertonLukasz Fabianski out 'for a couple of weeks'Lawro's Premier League predictionsThe former Everton and Manchester United boss guided West Ham to safety in 2018 after taking over from Slaven Bilic in November, but departed at the end of the season after six months and 31 games in charge.
Fernandinho: He might not be the best centre-back in the world, or even the best defender at his club, but what Fernandinho gives Manchester City is composure. He is also one of the most committed players I have seen on a football pitch. His second half block on N'Golo Kante's shot, destined for the back of the net, secured the points against Chelsea. With Joao Cancelo, John Stones and Benjamin Mendy as reliable as a chocolate fireguard, Pep Guardiola has been very astute in keeping Fernandinho around.
The Espanyol players had bad matches in La Liga, before that they won 1-0 against Mallorca and a 2-2 draw on the field of Seville. However, soon after, the students of coach Abelardo Fernández fell 0-4 when they marched to England to face Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Europa League, and at the weekend they continued to lose to Valladolid 1-2. In the middle of last week, Atletico Madrid had just won 1-0 at home against the defending champions Liverpool in the first round of 16 Champions League. This result created a good mentality for Diego Simeone's team before the second leg. In the last round, the visitors had a 3-1 win over Villarreal in the 25th round of La Liga
A total of 11 United matches have been postponed because of the pandemic. Speaking in a conference call after the latest financial results were released, Baty explained that Premier League television broadcasters would get £20m back from the club because of changes in dates and kick-off times resulting from the pandemic. With games called off - including matches in the Europa League and FA Cup - Baty said that sponsorship revenues had "contracted", and that retail sales had been "impacted" with the club store at Old Trafford still closed.
This is a guy who comes in every day and his mentality is to train and to work. There are very few sessions he will ever miss. Behind it all, he has that wonderful personality. He's very selfless and supports the younger players; he's good value with the senior players. I love working with him. Rodgers added: "We all want him to finish as the highest scorer, which would be a remarkable achievement considering his age and everything.
It wasn't a decision anybody wanted'The EFL has confirmed two clubs will be promoted directly from League One and three from League Two, with Coventry and Swindon confirmed as respective champions. Four teams will go into the play-offs from each league, with Wycombe the big winners, going from eighth in League One to third on points-per-game thanks to their match in hand on the teams above them. Peterborough lose their play-off spot as a result.
AnalysisBBC Radio Manchester's Mike MinayIt is still far from clear, at this point, what exactly will happen next for Bury and the CVA supervisor Steven Wiseglass. The biggest concern for the Shakers will surround liquidation, which can come either through Steve Dale himself or Wiseglass - and could be triggered immediately. If that were to happen, it is would likely to take up to six weeks to go through the courts.
Apparently Stein was jumpy in the moment, ready to swing for his goalkeeper for barely moving as the ball whizzed by him. Williams said he had the situation under control. I knew it was an indirect free-kick and they hit it first time so it was never standing. I think myself and the ref were the only two who knew the story. I went to Big Jock afterwards and I said, 'Boss, the ref just said well done to me for knowing the rules'.
As it was already said, Tambov is currently sitting in 14th place with only 17 points from 16 games. Their attack needs improving, as they are scoring a little over one goal per game, which is unacceptable at this level of play. They will have to play their best if they want to make a potential surprise and get some points. Their coach will have all of his players ready to battle, as no injuries or suspensions are listed prior to this game.

Paper Round's view: Arsenal and Tottenham both seem to be leaking goals. The pair have both conceded 31 goals each in 22 Premier League matches this season. It was expected that defenders would be at the top of their January transfer lists, but Arsenal are the club who are in more desperate need of a centre-half.

Altyn Asyr will host Ahal for this fixture of the league. I expect, this will be a very tense match. Both teams have the motivation to get a positive result in this match. Both teams are undefeated in this campaign. In any case, both sides will try to remain unbeaten. Nevertheless, I think, the visitors will try to get the victory on the opposite stadium. Ahal have a great results in this season. They have four consecutive victories. On the other hand Altyn Asyr have advantage at home stadium. In any case, they have a very difficult task. I think, the visitors have the potential to pick up the victory.
In the years that followed, and after several battles against relegation to the third tier, Portsmouth eventually reached the Premier League under Harry Redknapp in 2002-03. Trevor Francis' Birmingham CityUnder the management of legendary former player Trevor Francis, Birmingham reached the play-off semi-finals in three consecutive seasons between 1998-99 and 2000-01, but suffered the agony of losing two of them on penalties.
When I heard it I thought 'that's my thought as well'. If you ask me what's his best position, I don't know. He's not a number nine but the top scorer. He's not a number 10 but he's the top assist provider. He's not a tall guy but he scores headers - he's good at everything. We were thinking sometimes he's not shooting well with the right foot, then he scores amazing goals with the right foot. I think that he played as a keeper one time and he did well.

Arteta (right) challenges Neil Lennon for the ballAt Everton, a club where he spent six years between 2005 and 2011, he fought for more creative players to be brought in and helped to build a totally different style and playing ethos than the one that existed when he first joined. The Toffees' manager at the time, David Moyes, quickly realised Arteta could improve the team on the pitch but also help develop the philosophy the Scot wanted to impose.

We’re confident that both teams will score and over 2.5 goals will be produced in Friday’s match and we have predicted a final scoreline of 3-1 in favour of the visitors. Utrecht head into the match as the clear form favourites and have won five of their last seven matches against Zwolle. The hosts have underperformed once again this season and look set for another relegation battle while Utrecht are on the right path to challenge for a European place just as they did in the last campaign.

My Spanish is coming on. I understand a lot more than I can speak. I've got the right people around me who are helping me and the staff have been fantastic. It's not going to be like a day to learn it, it's going to be a process, but I'm excited. From day one in pre-season, to see how welcoming everybody is - the players, the staff - I knew straight away I would love it here. It's just so connected, which is the most important thing to me.
It's very ugly," said former Barcelona boss Enrique, 50. I watched the German football and it's lamentable. You can hear the insults and you lose the intimacy of the great moments. Speaking to Spanish basketball show Colgados del Aro, Enrique added: "Playing matches without supporters is sadder than dancing with your sister. What it was like inside one of Germany's 'Ghost Games'However, the Spaniard said he understood why football has to be played behind closed doors with social distancing measures in place, and that it could help supporters currently in lockdown because of the pandemic.
Kevin De Bruyne was at his majestic best at times but was fortunate not to concede a penalty when a James Maddison effort appeared to hit his arm in the box. Sergio Aguero had a quiet half but had a goal disallowed on the stroke of half-time for off-side after De Bruyne's through ball. The second half was just as entertaining with De Bruyne denied by a brilliant Kasper Schmeichel stop with the Dane then saving an Aguero penalty after Dennis Praet was penalised by VAR for handball.
The Accies also have a taste for goal when playing on home soil, scoring at least once in 5 of their last 7 games, which is why we're backing them to score here. We're going for over 2.5 goals in this game and with a final score of 2-1 to Rangers.
