PSV Eindhoven are on the 5th place with 36 points and they can't reach the first placed Ajax who have 50 points, huge 14 more than PSV. To be worse, PSV are in poor form.

Lawro's prediction: 3-0Sonny's prediction: 4-0 Tottenham v BournemouthJose's back: played two and won two, and I can see Tottenham's revival continuing this weekend. It is a different voice in the changing room and on the training pitch and I can see Spurs going on a run now. I also can't recall Bournemouth going to too many of the top six and getting a result so I think Tottenham will win this one.
One clear factor ahead of this match is the defensive failings shown by the two sides. PSG have two clean sheets in their last nine matches and Nice have one clean sheet in their last five matches. While PSG have done well at home, Nice have not had the best of times away from home, with just one win in 12 away matches. Based on the scoring, and home/away form, we are backing PSG for a win but we expect Nice to score. Correct score 3-1.

It is almost like being back in the playground, when one of the older boys would get on the ball. Everything about him is just better. I don't think he can do it on his own, though. We have to build on what we have with him in the team, but we definitely need one or two other players who can do something similar. People say he is inconsistent but I think we have to admit United are not one of the best teams in the country right now, and he needs some help.

akhisar is just two points below bursa on the league table and after this game I expect from them to come ahead of bursa because I m pretty confident they will beat bursa!both teams are much better at home then on the road and especially bursa so I think they are not going to be able to score a goal tonight and on the other hand akhisar will score at least one goal so they should win with 1-0 or 2-0 at the end but my main bet is hosts to win and I surely recommend that bet to anyone

There aren't cliques, or people thinking they're above their station. They're all good, honest lads. He had that at Northampton and I think he's got it again at Sheffield United.

A campaign which would end with 99 points and the League Two title started under a cloud, with financial uncertainty and staff not being paid.

He [Mourinho] wants to win. He's a proven winner. I've made it clear that I'm at the stage of my career where I want to win trophies.

We all get to a certain point by doing something and everyone's path is different.
Cardiff are hoping to turn a corner under Neil Harris, who has picked up four points from his first two games. While that is a solid return, the new Bluebirds boss has yet to be really tested on the road.
