Galatasaray have a good record at home but they are missing some of their biggest stars going into this fixture. Trabzonspor have a bigger shot at winning the title and this appears to have been the motivation for big away wins, like the recent victory at Fenerbahce. Expect them to put in an inspired display when they travel to Galatasaray. Back the visitors to win.
The round of 16 is on in the Coppa Italia and among the matches coming up, Fiorentina will be hosting Atalanta. Going to the game, Fiorentina beat Citadella 2-0 and will be hoping for the same show as they seek the first win over Atalanta in five meetings.

As Munoz starts to get some of that same type of buzz, the Utah resident is looking to take the fake team concept and bring it to the real-life community. He helped out members of the Salt Lake community struggling to pay bills during the coronavirus crisis and is planning more charity initiatives. Community involvement is a big portion of what Fishtown FC, named for a neighbourhood in Philadelphia, looks to do.
Portsmouth haven’t had the start they wanted but are starting to pull themselves back together and are undefeated in their last five. They have four wins and four draws at home, and given that they have earned 67% of their points at Fratton Park, they know that their home form is key to their recovery. The hosts have scored in all but one home game so far but have yet to beat any side who is placed higher than them in the league this season. The two higher placed visitors to Fratton Park so far were Oxford and Coventry, who drew 1-1 and 3-3 respectively.
The Eagles are the joint lowest scoring team in the Premier League (20 goals), though they did manage to register in five of their last six top-flight tests. We think the Citizens defensive frailties should allow Palace to enhance that record further this weekend, though any Eagles goal is almost certain to be a consolation effort.
Scotland haven't won in Dublin for ten years. The most recent game between the two countries saw Ireland win 27-3. Ireland have won five of their last six games against Scotland in this competition. Ireland have a new coach for this season's Six Nations Championship. Andy Farrell is the new man in charge and he'll hope to get off to a winning start at home to Scotland.

It actually shows how well we’ve done to be where we are. Against that level of opponent it was a good lesson for us. No complaints about the result from me. We were a little more like ourselves in the second half but it showed there’s a long way to go for this group of young players. When we did have the ball we showed we could hurt them.
United have huge history and their quality is always there but we must try to beat them. We play against a good team, try to follow the performances we've put in and try to win the game. You know my opinion on the title race. Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer: "It took many years before I played a Manchester derby myself. Of course, Man City are a better team now than when I was playing.
I am not going to do it. I don't see any sense. Roberto MorenoGetty Images 19:00: Jose Mourinho has given his first interview since being appointed as Tottenham manager. What can I promise? Passion - for my job but also passion for my club. It's a privilege when a manager goes to a club and feels that happiness in relation to the squad that he's going to have.
Crystal Palace have signed defender Nathan Ferguson on a free transfer after his contract with Championship promotion hopefuls West Brom expired. The England Under-20 international has signed a three-year deal with Palace. Ferguson, 19, had turned down a new contract with Albion, who he joined aged eight. Nathan is a fantastic signing for us, a player we've been committed to for a long time," said Eagles chairman Steve Parish.
Podence had a shot on the turn blocked near the end, although Wolves' marathon season appears to have caught up with them and they, more than most, will be thankful for the two-week break that lies ahead. Munich rememberedSixty-two years ago on Thursday, United suffered the biggest tragedy in their history when eight players were among the 23 passengers who died when the team plane crashed in Munich following a refuelling stop on the way back from a European Cup tie in Belgrade.
Atalanta were furious when Rafael Toloi appeared to be pulled down by Martinez inside the box as he tried to tap the ball home from close range, but the referee ignored the appeals and there was no Video Assistant Referee (VAR) intervention. Replays suggested Martinez had intentionally grabbed the defender’s leg to trip him, and Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini was not happy with the decision after the game.

Kosovo's fearless attacking style has been as impressive as their results. I studied the potential of the team before I accepted the job and it was clear that these are good football players," veteran Swiss coach Bernard Challandes told Reuters in an interview. Like all players from Balkans, they love the ball, they have good technique, they like dribbling.
Odds are very good on goals in this match from Danish Super league and of course, I will try that here. So, this is, as I know, first match in Danish Super league after brake of Corona Virus and it will be pretty interesting to watch how this two teams will play today. 2-1 and 1-4 is home team played in last two matches in league, while on the other side, Randers is coming in this match after 2-1 win in friendly duel. Over is ok here and I will bet on that option. Odds are, as I said before, very good and I will try.
Former England striker Michael Owen says players should "stop lazily blaming VAR for everything" as it "simply enforces these new rule changes". However, on Twitter he said the new handball rule is "an absolute joke". Try teaching a kid the handball rule," said Owen. It now depends on where you are on the pitch, whether the attacking or defending team handles it, sometimes whether it's intentional and sometimes not.

However, a common thread runs through both perspectives - that the manager has not been backed enough. I am not on his side really and that is only because I don't think the board are either," Palace season-ticket holder Johnny Gribbin told BBC Sport before Saturday's loss. He hasn't been backed at all like [former Eagles boss] Sam Allardyce was. The squad he put out against Everton was the same again.

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.
Rangers say "no fair-minded person" can take the SPFL's vote to curtail the lower leagues in Scotland seriously. The Ibrox club voted against the plans, and tabled their own resolution, which was dismissed by the league. Rangers repeated their call for an independent investigation and the suspension of the SPFL's chief executive Neil Doncaster. The SPFL has conducted a process which has been misleading and deeply flawed," a statement said.

I was delighted to go into the break on level terms. We try to build momentum and create pressure. They controlled the game early on but our reaction was great. We really went for it in the second half and the belief the boys have is amazing. I'm sure when we were coming off our fans were singing that we're safe. We're not there yet but there's no let-up from us. There are no comfortable footballers in our changing room - they all have something to prove.
Last season West Brom won this fixture with 4-1 in the end and they were also top teams in the league last season as well but neither could get promoted in the end while at this moment they are on the top 2 places right now with 51 points, 9 points more than the 3rd placed club, still neither is on a running run right now Leeds drew a few weeks ago 3-3 at home with Cardiff while just a few days ago they played a crazy game away from home at Birmingham where they eventually won very hard though with 5-4 in the end so really big question marks about their defense.

They have a tough Boxing Day fixture as they host Fulham who are fourth in the Championship, nine points behind the final automatic promotion position. Luton come into this game having lost their last three league matches wth six goals conceded. Their last 11 league games have produced wins over Wigan and Charlton (neither in the best of form at present) and nine defeats.
But, now they are winning again and playing well, another victory will build even more momentum. New West Ham boss David Moyes is in a similar situation before his side's trip to Gillingham, where he is looking to keep things going, so it will be interesting to see how many changes he and Pearson make. Media playback is not supported on this device West Ham 4-0 AFC Bournemouth: Moyes credits players' attitude for 'fabulous' performance The Gills have got an excellent home record - they had won seven in a row at Priestfield before Wednesday's draw with Pompey - but it is only a short hop for the Hammers so they will have a big following and I would back them to edge this one.
SCR have banned their player from being involved with the club and the league took the same stance," it said. Metropolitan Police said a man in his 40s was treated by paramedics for non-life threatening injuries. Following the incident, SCR described the attack as "highly regrettable, wholly unacceptable and completely unforeseeable".
Both of these sides will likely approach this in a positive manner given their recent good form, so an end to end, attacking game of football appears to be on the cards. The hosts have been excellent in front of goal and have scored two or more goals in six of their eight home league games so far this season. Meanwhile, their visitors have been improving in front of goal but, with three goals conceded in their last two outings, they appear to have scrapped their solid foundation in favour of a more attacking approach. All this leads us to believe that goals are the order of the day, and with the prolific nature of Cheltenham on home soil at the moment, backing them to score over 1.5 team goals is where we are placing our trust.
The home side had rested Andrew Robertson and brought Xherdan Shaqiri into the starting line-up as they anticipated a busy period. It was Salah who broke the deadlock after being released by Sadio Mane, and the Egyptian curled into an empty net. In the second half, Mane’s header looked to have made it two before it was ruled offside on review, which provoked a wave of Liverpool pressure interrupted briefly as Gerard Deulofeu almost beat Alisson.
Well, Juve is not so dominant like last season's. At all. Although they have great attacking line with Ronaldo, Dybala and Higuain they don't score much goals. They think more about own goal and create just few chances per game. Still, I can see tonight class difference between them and Lyon and off course in Juve favor. I will caution here with goals and will take just over 2 goals as this can be very hard game with great battle in the middle of ground without much shoots on goal at both sides. Still can see at least two goals in this one.
I feel a bit safer in taking the over bet instead of the away win and odds are also a little bit better for the over bet reason being the hosts conceded 42 goals so far this season which is by far the weakest defensive record in the league this season but they are not actually bottom in the league they are 3rd from bottom just that against solid sides they usually concede plenty of goals even in home games.

It won’t do the club any harm in persuading him to join up with them by showing him a decent performance against United, but it is hard to see Barcelona being willing to sell him for anything but a huge transfer fee - which Arsenal can't afford. Read the full story Mourinho doesn’t want defenders Spurs manager Jose Mourinho has made it clear that he does not believe that his club need to sign any defenders in the transfer window.
The mood that Perth have been in lately this could end up as a big win for The Glory but we think Western Sydney will show a little more resolve in defence this week. Despite this it still won’t be enough for The Wanderers and we’re backing Perth to come away with a 2-0 win.
We feel Cologne are likely to find life difficult in Saturday's game versus Monchengladbach. They have been experiencing a very poor run of form in recent weeks. They have lost seven of their last nine games in all competitions. This doesn't bode well for them ahead of Saturday's trip to Red Bull Arena. Leipzig have won five of their last six competitive games. Furthermore, Leipzig are also undefeated in 11 of their last 12 Bundesliga home games.

Rose had faced an uncertain future at Tottenham since last summer when he was left out of the squad for their pre-season tour of Asia in order for him to explore opportunities with other clubs. The full-back explained that he has struggled to regain the form he showed prior to a knee injury in January 2017 that required surgery and left him sidelined for nine months. He added: "I'd love to be the player I was three years ago when I was doing well.
Not a patch on what we witnessed here. Spurs midfield man Giovani lo Celso committed a horrendous challenge on Azpilicueta which could easily have resulted in serious injury. Everyone who saw it waited for VAR official David Coote to deliver the inevitable verdict to referee Michael Oliver - instead he came to the truly baffling conclusion that it did not require sanction.
