Bayer Leverkusen will be hoping to pick up back to back wins in the champions league this week, as they lock horns with a Lokomotiv Moscow side. Their only recent meeting was the reverse fixture of this clash which Lokomotiv won 2-1.
Gillingham have been remarkably middle of the road so far this season, winning six and drawing and losing seven games. They’ve also scored 23 and conceded 22 goals and sit in 13th position, at the top of the bottom half of the table.
He will become the 20th Brazilian player to represent Lyon, following in the footsteps of Giovane Elber, Juninho and Fred among others. Rudi Garcia's Lyon are fifth in Ligue 1 with 32 points from 21 games. They will take on OGC Nice in the last 16 of the French Cup later on Thursday before visiting the same team in the league three days later.
A thumping header from Fry from six yards is well saved by the feet of Gazzaniga, and in an almighty goalmouth scramble Alderweireld clears the follow up chance off the line. GOAL! Middlesbrough 1 (Fletcher 50) Tottenham 0 The home side are ahead! Saville gets the ball in the centre circle and chips it behind the Spurs back three.
Morecambe have lost six of their twelve home games in League Two so far this season while Colchester have won four times on the road and have only been beaten three times. Morecambe earn an average of 0.83 points per home game while Colchester average 1.38 points per away game which is above the league average of 1.20 points. The hosts concede an average of 1.50 goals per home game and their guests score an average of 1.31 goals per away game which is why we have backed Colchester to win 1-0 on Saturday.
Arteta wasn’t exactly part of Arsenal’s glory years under Arsene Wenger, but he’s spent enough time under Guardiola to know what it takes to win. Whether he can bring that mentality and implement it at the Emirates will prove to be his biggest obstacle. Where’s Carlo? There was some confusion regarding Carlo Ancelotti’s whereabouts on Monday, but be it Rome or London, it was widely reported that the Italian was nearing a move to Everton.
We lost Ayoze Perez and Salomon Rondon at the end of last season and simply haven't replaced them properly. Joelinton was brought in to be the number nine when he clearly isn't a centre-forward. It speaks volumes that Andrew Carroll, Dwight Gayle and Joelinton have a total of one league goal between them. The two loan signings have potential and obvious ability but it would be great (possibly beyond the realms of fantasy at Mike Ashley's Newcastle) to see the permanent signing of a centre-forward who knows the division and could fit straight in.
Mohamed Salah netted a brace against Watford as Liverpool continued their stunning run of form and further cemented their status at the top of the table. Liverpool needed a win to go 11 points clear in their last Premier League match before they depart for the World Club Cup in Qatar. Nigel Pearson was taking charge of Watford for the first time.
As things stand, they are in the race for European places, the ban handed to Manchester City by UEFA opening up an additional Champions League place. It would be incredible to see them make it to the top table of European football on the first attempt. On their minds this week, though, is the FA Cup.
Everton did know how to find the net even before Ancelotti’s arrival – they have scored in each of their last six Premier League away days. However, they haven’t kept a clean sheet on the road since a goalless draw with Crystal Palace on the opening day of the season, so their chances of keeping Manchester City at bay are slim to say the least. With both teams showing a clear weakness at the back, we think a Both Teams to Score bet is the best option here.

Real Madrid are two points clear at the top of La Liga after grinding out a victory at bottom club Espanyol. Casemiro scored the only goal as he latched onto Karim Benzema's brilliant no-look backheel through the legs of defender Bernardo Espinosa before firing home. The Brazilian had earlier gone close to the opener when his shot from his own half was saved by Diego Lopez. Espanyol had several chances with Thibaut Courtois making five saves.

Ultimately, on home soil this is a match you have to fancy Palmeiras to be winning and they should be able to get the job done. Man for man, they are a bit stronger than Gremio on paper and there's a reason why 12 points separate the two in the table, with the hosts clearly the more powerful outfit.
Batista was fired only to be appointed at Cruzeiro 24 hours later after Abel Braga left the struggling giant. Batista became Cruzeiro's fourth coach this year. Brazilian clubs are notorious for their impatient hiring and firing policies but Friday's changes were startling given the inter-club promiscuity and the little time each coach will have to make their mark.

Select formationConfirm teamThe Crooks of the Matter Media playback is not supported on this device Watch: Eric Dier confronts a fan who "insulted him" I was at White Hart Lane to see Norwich, together with their 9,000 following, knock Spurs out of the FA Cup. The fifth-round tie was full of spills and thrills but the talking point wasn't about the match but about Tottenham defender Eric Dier jumping over the advertising hoardings, climbing over a considerable number of seats and engaging in what can only be described as a confrontation with a group of 'home supporters'.
Captain Mark Noble has urged West Ham supporters to "get behind" new manager David Moyes, adding he is the "best person for the job". In an open letter to fans, midfielder Noble, 32, said Moyes was "really liked and respected" by Hammers players who had worked with him during his first spell in charge at the club. Noble added that he often blames himself for the club's misfortunes. Moyes, 56, replaced the sacked Manuel Pellegrini on Sunday.
So only time will tell. Southgate said last week both Kane, who returned to training on Monday, and Rashford were on track in their recoveries but would not close the door on a recall for Vardy. The striker admitted, however, that being out of the England side had helped him. I'm not going to lie, I've had a few extra days off in the international breaks so I've been able to switch off completely from football and it's always beneficial," Vardy said.
Sheffield United are the best placed side among the promoted teams; being seventh after 14 matches is a big show of their capabilities. They have not lost in their last seven matches, though five have ended in draws. They have a good run at home and go to this game unbeaten in three there. They have scored seven in the last three home matches and with the third best defence in the league we feel they hold the favorites’ tag. Newcastle had a good fight to draw Manchester City in their last game but they have not shown much challenge, especially among the smaller teams. They have no clean sheet in the last six and have lost five of the last seven away matches. With Sheffield’s impressive home form, and factoring in Newcastle’s away form, we will go with a win for Sheffield United.
Swansea and QPR will face each other in the upcoming match in the Championship. Swansea this season have the following results: 12W, 10D and 9L. Meanwhile QPR have 11W, 5D and 15L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
I'm not too much concerned about records. We had a record at [Borussia] Dortmund and Bayern [Munich] beat it the next season. We don't feel as though anything is done, I promise you. We take a deep breath and then Saturday it's Southampton. While the result appears to have tightened Liverpool's hold on this season's title, it intensifies the pressure on the Hammers at the bottom. David Moyes' side now sit 17th in the table, just above Bournemouth and Watford on goal difference.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says he expects a tough challenge from Napoli in their Champions League match on Wednesday, despite the Italian club's on and off-field problems. The winners of the Group E tie at Anfield will qualify for the last 16. But Napoli have not won in six games and their players are set to be fined by the club's president for not attending a training camp this month. I expect Napoli to be really strong for a number of reasons," said Klopp.
Ighalo is a proven striker made very much in Solskjaer's image. Professional, a team player and most importantly just happy to be at the club of his dreams. But the Nigerian is not in Lukaku's class, even if he is only on loan. This latest signing comes at a time when United fans have become increasingly frustrated by their team's lack of impact on the Premier League title race. They are playing second fiddle to their noisy but very successful neighbours City and having their noses rubbed in it by arch enemy Liverpool, who are running away with the title.
Despite Law's heroics United were struggling for form. He scored a hat-trick against Leicester City, but United still lost. But he scored another hat-trick in the FA Cup as they routed Huddersfield 5-0 and went on to reach the final, against Leicester. This time the Red Devils got their revenge - Law scoring the opening goal as they lifted the cup at Wembley. Denis Law spent 11 seasons with Manchester United, winning the league twiceLaw would have the distinction that year of playing three times at Wembley, for three different teams.
Torino were hit with a tough run of form earlier in the season, but recent results have lifted the club. Their season started with ambitions of Europe, with the club losing out in the early stages of the Europa League. However, Il Toro are within seven points of the top six now after taking seven points from three games and winning three of their last five.
Throwing 11 players together haphazardly is not the job - otherwise any old mug would be able to do it. It is also the job of the manager to ensure that players 'buy in' to any perceived system that the manager has put forward. Complete the above two tasks and the manager of the club should be able to extract the maximum from the players at their disposal.
