The Londoner was brought in to the side for his debut and helped the Owls keep a clean sheet in their 1-0 win upset win over Premier League Brighton & Hove Albion.

And now that they're not in Italy, they feel maybe relief they can play in this game. We have to be ready for that," Klopp told reporters. Napoli gave us a proper fight at Anfield last season (in a 1-0 win). We expect them to be strong. Whatever has happened, I don't have a real idea. But if I was a player, I'd be trying to bring the group together and fight the things from outside.
The players are not to blame," he said. But the reality is, the players have to be part of the solution because if clubs go bust, their contracts won't get met anyway. They may not like me saying this, but [players' union] the PFA need to put in place salary cuts of between 30% and 50% for all players at all levels until such a time as crowds are allowed back into football stadiums and income streams return.
We just can't see that happening and see good value in backing Marseille on a -1 handicap when looking at the fixture from a betting point of view. Marseille are scoring goals for fun, especially at home and with Nimes having looked extremely leaky in recent weeks, we believe a comfortable 3-0 home win could well be on the cards.

Last weekend saw them away at league leaders FC Slutsk and went 2-0 down in the first half. Belshina fought back to get level but conceded a goal with two minutes and lost their fourth game of the new season.
One main reason for taking the over 2.5 goals bet in this one is the fact that the guests have conceded the most goals in the league so far this term, a total of 56 goals conceded by them and they have played here at Heracles already once this season in the Cup competition and despite being early 2-0 down they had the power to come back in the game making it 2-2 but ended up losing the game with 4-3 in the end, so a game with 7 goals being scored total.

We looked across at the linesman and he was running back to the halfway line. In recent years, especially with goalline technology, we would have been awarded the goal. I think the referee thought the linesman had flagged for a foul or offside, if we had got him across we would have got the goal. We just did not challenge it.

Many believe it is actually the other way around, with Xavi deciding that new blood like Font and a new regime might be needed in the boardroom at the Nou Camp. Also Xavi needed time to think.
