'Correct Score' players can try a 3-1 win for the English side, who for all their attacking quality have made a habit of conceding this season, shipping a single goal in six of their last ten. Monterrey have also made a habit of finding the net, scoring at least once in every game they've played since late September.
Looking back now is different to how it was then,” admitted Laporte. When I was working with him it was so difficult. It was training every day, maybe some times two times a day. It was difficult to think, to have time for us. But now I know I improved a lot with him and he helped me to improve. He also sees the influence Bielsa has had on his current boss Pep Guardiola, who has called the Argentine the best coach in the world.
Over 2.5 goals have been produced in 67% of Casa Pia’s home games as well as in 33% of Porto’s away games but the hosts haven’t kept any clean sheets at home and their guests have kept clean sheets in 73% of their games this season, which is why we are backing the visitors to shut out their opponents on Thursday.

TALKING POINT - Antoine Griezmann has finally found his role in this Barcelona team There have been recent signs that Griezmann is finally starting to find his place at the Camp Nou and this was arguably his best performance for Barcelona in terms of synchronisation with his teammates, Messi in particular.
The hosts are our confident selection for the three points this Saturday and we're also going for a 2-0 correct score. Granada have kept five clean sheets from eight matches at Los Carmenes this term, of which six have produced fewer than 2.5 goals in total. With Levante conceding an average of exactly two goals per game on their travels this season, there is plenty to suggest that 2-0 is the right call.
Below them, Leipzig are pushing for second spot, being just four points behind. As for Fortuna, they are hoping to avoid relegation and they will be under pressure to win this game after the 2-2 draw with Hoffenheim last time. Fortuna are three points below the safety line and each of the last four matches will be crucial.
Luckily, Tottenham’s track record of panic buying Polish strikers is very good indeed *coughs* Grzegorz Rasiak *coughs* and there should be nothing to worry about at all if they do end up paying £30m for a striker in January who come April won’t be starting any more games ever again. Messi slams ‘childish’ Barca Lionel MessiGetty Images Last night, Barcelona were beating Atletico Madrid 2-1 in the Spanish Super Cup semi-final with nine minutes to go.
They have won just two of their last eleven matches with sixteen goals conceded and 13 scored in reply. However, five of their scored goals came in one freak match against Strasbourg, without that it is a rather pale eight in ten games. Much of les Ty'Zefs' misfortune has come on the road this season with them losing each of their last six away days. Brest have created the least chances and conceded the second most chances in Ligue 1 away from home this campaign and that could make good reading for a Toulouse side desperate for a win.
Real Madrid have been on a steady rise in recent matches but will face a tough challenge against Real Sociedad. However, with their form at home and in recent matches, we feel they are the favorites here. Real Madrid have five straight clean sheets, but here they face a side that scored in 10 of their last 11 matches. Real Madrid have scored 17 goals in the last five home matches and with Karim Benzema on the rise, there is reason to feel the streak will continue. Here we are thus backing Real Madrid for a 2-1 win.
It looks like Salzburg will have a little bit more difficult time winning the league this year then even so it's time for them to take the things seriously. They finished the regular part with -6 points then 1st place LASK but after the regulations they are now at the 1st place with +3 but given the fact that LASK is playing against Hartberg I expect Salzburg to take the things much more seriously not just in this match but in general. Rapid showed some improvement during the last 2-3 season but still they are not even near at quality as their today's opponents are.
Barcelona have completed the controversial emergency signing of Danish striker Martin Braithwaite from Leganes for 18m euros (£15m). La Liga gave Barcelona permission to make a signing outside the transfer window after Ousmane Dembele was ruled out for six months with an injury. La Liga rules allow clubs to apply to make new signings if a player is ruled out for more than five months. Braithwaite's contract will run until the end of June 2024.
Lecce start the weekend only three points above the relegation zone and have lost their last two league games. They haven't just lost them but conceded 11 goals in those two matches. Firstly, they lost 4-0 at Roma and then had a disastrous 7-2 home loss to Atalanta. That's taken them up to 56 league goals conceded this season, ten more than any other side in Serie A.
Bale remains committed to Real Madrid, says Courtois Gareth Bale is still committed to life at Real Madrid despite a failure to repair his deteriorating relationship with manager Zinedine Zidane, according to Thibaut Courtois. Bale celebrated Wales' qualification for Euro 2020 by posing for cameras behind a flag that read 'Wales, Golf, Madrid' - a reference to the player's alleged lack of interest in playing for the club and preference for the gold course over the Bernabeu.
The club’s board have asked Josep Bartomeu to call elections immediately, following pressure on him as the club enters a crisis period. He has put off any decision until Thursday, with the next elections scheduled to take place next year. Paper Round’s view: Bartomeu could lose Lionel Messi on a free transfer this season if the trouble continues, something the rest of the board are surely concerned about.
It's obviously very disappointing. But this isn't a time to get the violins out, we have to step up," Alli told reporters ahead of the match in Germany. We have to deal with these situations. It's all a part of it, as disappointing as it is. But we have to show our character now as a team, the depth that we have in the squad.
Actually, Bruce is very wide of the mark on the price of the books. It seems you can no longer purchase Sweeper! or Defender! However, if you have a spare £1,000 and go to Amazon, Striker! is all yours. Seriously. Striker! by Steve BruceThe big question is, will Bruce dust off his typewriter and begin writing again in the future? He was asked this by Sky Sports in October last year and his answer was as decisive as Steve Barnes cracking a case: "No, have you read them? Go and read them and you'll understand why.
Speaking of his famous father, midfielder Ianis said: "Other people can speak about whether we are comparable, but one quality I have inherited from him would be ambition. Barcelona and Real Madrid great Gheorghe is widely regarded as Romania's greatest player of all time.

Meanwhile, Wolves skipper Conor Coady says footballers "want to make as much difference as possible" during this "horrible time". Footballers are good people," defender Coady, 27, said. We want to try and help the right people at the right times, to make sure that people are getting the best possible care. It's a horrible, horrible time we're in. It's about everybody coming together, not trying to point fingers at certain people within the world and trying to say they're not doing enough.
I was standing up at the front with the marker pen and hands started to go up. Cech, Lampard, Terry, Drogba. All of a sudden we had defensive points and offensive points and he said: 'That's it. That is what we are going to do. Off you go and do it. He gave real ownership to the players and we won the game to become double winners. In the 2014 Champions League final with Real Madrid, we were playing Atletico Madrid, a great rival, in Lisbon and we were 1-0 down at half-time.
They are now talking to the officials and going through the right procedure. No matter what stadium it is in, we do not want that in the game. Lampard played down a suggestion that his players could have walked off, saying the facts needed to be established first.

Maritzburg lost only once in their last 10 matches across all competitions. They were in very good form till their two shallow performances in recent matches and will try to get back in the winning ways. They have lost 2-0 to SuperSport United and drawn 0-0 to AmaZulu.
Our fans from all over the world seem to be happy! Thanks for your support, guys!" the club tweeted. On Wednesday, as Dynamo Brest hosted Shakhtyor Soligorsk, a section of the stands was filled with the faces of supporters from countries including Russia, Britain, the United Arab Emirates and Iran sporting a range of overseas club shirts, the club said.
Macclesfield might have only lost once at home this season but they have also only won three games in front of their own fans while Crewe have won five of their nine away games this season, losing twice, so you can start to see why we have backed the visitors to win this weekend.

PSG are big favorites, but I think Lyon won't lose high. PSG will be missing the key striker Neymar. The Brazilian will skip the match due to a rib injury. His absence is a huge handicap for the coach Tuchel. That's not all as Juan Bernat, Colin Dagba and Thiago Silva are also sidelined for the French champions. In addition, Marquinhos and Ander Herrera are rated as doubtful.
Arsenal were doubly frustrated because Jorginho was fortunate to escape a second yellow card for a cynical foul on Lucas Torreira - but Arteta's home bow was to get even more painful. Chelsea struck again with three minutes of normal time left, Tammy Abraham turning Arsenal substitute Shkodran Mustafi far too easily in the area to beat Leno and complete the smash-and-grab raid. Arsenal, who lost defender Calum Chambers to injury in the first half, will start 2020 11 points behind fourth-placed Chelsea and without a Premier League home win since 6 October.

Nuno Espirito Santo says Wolverhampton Wanderers "is my life" but revealed he has had no talks about a new contract. The Portuguese coach, appointed in May 2017, signed a new deal last July, committing him to the Premier League club until 2021. Wolves are ninth in the Premier League under Nuno, who took them to promotion from the Championship in 2018. I have not had a proposal. I have one year more of my contract and I don't think about that," he said.
At the start of 1999, with Sheringham’s morale through the floor, Ferguson told him his chance would come at the business end of the season. It did.

That clash comes 24 hours after Japan and China face off in the tournament opener with neither nation selecting a squad that, on paper at least, should be able to compete with the Koreans.

Arsenal de Sarandi will host Aldosivi for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the hosts are favorites in this game. Arsenal Sarandi have advantage at home stadium. Of course, the hosts will try to capitalize advantage on their pitch. True, this will not be an easy task. Arsenal Sarandi have fallen in their shape. They have two consecutive losses. In any case, they are not convincing team. Also, we have Aldosivi who's is also not very good team in this season. Nevertheless, the visitors have the potential to provide a strong resistance on the road. My pick - Aldosivi to win.
They had all stayed in the stadium, and they were all on their feet singing 'Holt Enders in the Sky'. It was just incredible to witness.

It was the sort of triumphant scene that was commonplace at Anfield during the 1970s and 80s, when the team were regular league champions. While there had been plenty of domestic and European success in the years since 1990, one honour eluded them - until now. As Dalglish handed out the medals and then the Premier League trophy, he did it with his own name up in bright red lights on the giant Anfield stand that now bears his name.
