Well it is pretty hard not to favorize Atletico Bilbao in this one when they are playing so strong at home and also when on the other side celta is playing so weak on the road, Bilbao won at home 4 from last 5 ans also in head to head matches they won 3 from last 4 and celta losted from two bad teams on the road and their defense aloud a lot of goals in that two games and today even 1 goal could be enough for Bilbao to win cause their defense conceded just 13 goals since the season started
I see these two teams focusing on premier league game rather than this FA CUP. And so going back to the league table if Leicester city loss even one of the remaining matches. The chances of them dropping out of position four is very high, same applies to the guest has Wolverhampton are very close with just two points behind and because the two teams seem to have same quality and playing for sane reasons I will give a draw for this match . As. Can see any of this team giving much importance to this match. They will both preserve their strength for the league games
Macclesfield’s home games produce an average of 1.78 goals and Crewe’s away games produce an average of 2.78 goals, which is why we have backed a final scoreline of 2-0 as it meets the middle of both teams average goals scored ratio heading into Saturday’s clash.
Liverpool's standards have been so high this season that any slip from the pinnacle will raise eyebrows - so a third loss in four games is bound to provoke questions. Watford's 3-0 defeat of Jurgen Klopp's Premier League champions-elect was a seismic shock, given the Hornets were in the relegation zone and Liverpool had reeled off 18 straight league wins in an unbeaten season. Indeed, they were on an unbeaten 44-match league sequence stretching back to 3 January 2019, when they lost at Manchester City.
And it was significant Pochettino felt compelled to talk about players with "different agendas" after the humiliating League Cup exit to League Two Colchester United. In 2019, no Premier League side has lost more games in all competitions than Spurs' 18. The last time they lost more in a calendar year was in 2008 when they suffered 19 defeats under Juande Ramos and Harry Redknapp. Tottenham sack Pochettino after five and a half yearsHow Pochettino's Spurs reign unravelled - in numbersHas Levy made the right decision?Outsiders - and indeed plenty of Spurs supporters - were quick to condemn the haste of Pochettino's departure and the brutal manner in which it was announced.
For all Chelsea’s possession, however, they were restricted to few clear chances by their own shortcomings and the excellence of Newcastle’s three central defenders. Martin Dubravka saved well from N’Golo Kante in the first half, while Matt Ritchie cleared off the line from Tammy Abraham in the second.
The reluctant managerA captain at every club he played for, it was somewhat inevitable Smith's leadership skills would eventually see him move into coaching. He's very intelligent. If he hadn't gone into football he would have been a high-flier in whatever he did," added Heard. Smith's coaching career began at Orient in 2005, first with the youth team then as assistant to Martin Ling. He was appointed Walsall's head of youth soon after being sacked by Orient in 2009.
All UEFA competitions have been halted because of the flu-like virus that has killed around 34,000 people, while this year's European Championship has been pushed back to 2021. Man Utd 'increasingly confident' over £135m Saul Niguez signing - Paper Round "UEFA has invited the general secretaries of its 55 member associations to a video conference on Wednesday, April 1.
A man has been charged with throwing a hot drink at Alfredo Morelos during Rangers' Scottish Premiership win at Motherwell last month. A 30-year old will appear in Hamilton Sheriff Court on Wednesday, 29 January after the incident on 15 December. Rangers won the match 2-0, with Morelos sent off for gesturing at Motherwell fans after scoring the second. Police Scotland said "a 30-year-old man has been charged in connection with an incident".
It is not the first time Pope's tweets have created debate. In June, after watching England lose to the Netherlands on television, the former Bury, Rotherham and Crewe forward wrote that he would "love to play against John Stones every week!" and would score 40 goals a season if he did so. After his goal against a Manchester City team containing Stones on Saturday - in a game Port Vale lost 4-1 - he made reference to that tweet and wrote: "I'd just like to say I was completely wrong and bang out of order to say I'd score 40 a season.
Ajax are top of this group but could still finish out of the automatic qualifying places. They have scored 20 goals in their last five games and take on a Liile side who have already conceded ten goals in this group. The French side have one win from their last ten matches and will struggle against the Dutch attack. Go for an away win here.
All of Atleti's away games this term have produced fewer than 2.5 goals, which has been the outcome in the last six meetings between the sides. Indeed, only six goals have been netted in the last half dozen contests between the pair, so we think under 2.5 goals is a cracking bet this Sunday.

Thousands more turned out at Botafogo's home ground to see him at an official presentation on Saturday. Honda, who played for clubs in Italy, Russia, Australia, Mexico and Japan in a globe-trotting career, joined from Dutch side Vitesse Arnhem. Local media reported that he had signed an 11-month deal.
Everything is cancelled, stay indoors Well, not exactly. But while football is a relatively minor thing when it comes to coronavirus, it really is starting to bite now. The Champions League games between PSG v Dortmund and Valencia v Atalanta will both be held behind closed doors, and it was announced on Monday that all football – all domestic sport, and basically any sort of gathering in fact – will be suspended in Italy until April 3 as the authorities try to get this thing under control.
Wolves are currently seventh in the Premier League, the position that earned them their place in this competition. They drew their latest match 0-0 with Leicester City, that follows the same scoreline away at Manchester United. Wolves have only won one of their last nine league and cup games (an away win at Southampton) but five of their six Europa League home ties this season have been won.
This fixture features No. 4 vs no. 11 in the league, Viitorul Constanta vs Sepsi OSK. The hosts coming from a 1 - 1 draw with Hermannstadt ( no. 13 in The league) and their last home game a 3 - 0 win over Chindia Targoviste. The visitors coming from a 0 - 1 home loss to Gaz metan medias ( no. 5 in the league) and their last away game a 2 - 1 loss to FC FCSB. The hosts should win this game but come from a draw to a team below the visitors where they scored and conceded just one goal but won their last home game with multiple goals facing a team coming from 2 losses to teams above themselves so an over 2.5 is best to tip here.
In the past United needing a striker would have brought the agents of the best in the world out of the woodwork but now it’s an assorted mis-match of whatever Woodward pulled out of the Pick N’ Mix. It doesn’t matter if it’s King or Ighalo (as now seems more likely) the point still stands, United are a rudderless ship and their attempts to paper over the cracks in the hull are pathetic at best.
I'd like to thank the board for the backing they have given me already in my time at the club and also most importantly, the Rangers fans who have given me and the team such tremendous backing both this season and last. Gerrard's assistant Gary McAllister, along with coaches Michael Beale, Tom Culshaw, Colin Stewart, Jordan Milsom, Mark Waller, Scott Mason and Graeme Stevenson, have also renewed their contracts.

Given the hosts scoring form at home, we expect them to score a couple against Wigan here. Meanwhile, the Latics have averaged less than a goal per game away from home, losing to nil in 56% of their away trips. Half of Wigan’s defeats this term have come by two or more goals, so we’re backing a 2-0 Millwall victory as our correct score prediction.
I can understand it, but with the possible handball, I don't understand it. It would have gone quicker (by going to the screen), but that's how we do it in England and we cannot change that. Wolves were then denied an equaliser by VAR, another decision that came after a long delay. Video - Nuno fumes at VAR: 'The referee is miles away, he doesn't feel the game'00:54 Wolves coach Nuno Espirito Santo, who was booked for protesting the disallowed goal, said he was not a fan of VAR decisions being taken miles away from where matches are being played.
With a reputation for tactical prowess, getting the best out of her players and being comfortable in the media spotlight, Hayes has the attributes to thrive in the role. Nevertheless, she is passionately determined to win the Champions League with Chelsea and topple European women's football's dominant force, Lyon, so has unfinished business in west London. The earliest her side could claim the European crown would be at the end of next season, with qualification not yet guaranteed, so the England vacancy may have come too soon for Hayes this time around.
If Freddie Ljungberg wants to be Arsenal manager for any length of time, he has to change what the Gunners do when they are not in possession. It was bad enough watching their defensive display in Sunday's 2-2 draw at Norwich first time around but, when I went through the game again for our analysis on MOTD2, it was apparent just how poor they are at that part of the game. Watching clip after clip of them in the cold light of day, it was almost astonishing how often Arsenal just retreat away from the ball.
Shellzz beat a fellow pro 3-2 in the last round after initially drawing 0-0. All matches will be played with '85 mode', meaning that all teams will be rated the same. Aaygun96 beat an amateur 3-0 after drawing their first game 3-3. The biggest teams in football can still be found in esports action thanks to the FIFA QuaranTeam Tournament.
City, who have won the last two Premier League titles are now focused on securing a top four place. There has not been much wrong with what we have done in terms of points and performance," said Guardiola, whose side have taken 60 points from 29 games this season. He added: "We have ideas for the transfer market, then next season we will prepare to fight again.
Lawro's prediction: 1-2Tom's prediction: Newcastle are half-decent at home. SUNDAY Burnley v Leicester (14:00 GMT)Burnley got swept aside by Chelsea last week and are on a bad run of results, with four straight league defeats. But Leicester seem to have lost a bit of the self-belief and swagger that had propelled them up the table, and any thoughts of them seriously challenging for the title have now gone.
Watford, for all their many faults, have actually made themselves quite difficult to beat at Vicarage Road recently. They have lost just two of their last six league games at home, and with that including a draw against Arsenal we think backing a Watford Win or Draw Double Chance is a good option.
Zwickau and Hansa Rostock will face each other in the upcoming match in the 3. Liga in Germany. Zwickau this season have the following results: 8W, 8D and 11L. Meanwhile Hansa Rostock have 12W, 5D and 10L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Ever since her sister Amy seriously injured both knees and was forced to stop playing when they were at Norwich's centre of excellence together, Lauren Hemp has strived to reach the top - not just for herself, but for her sister too. After lifting two domestic cups, making her senior England debut and now signing a new contract with Manchester City, the 19-year-old has certainly done her older sibling proud in a breakthrough 2019.
West Bromwich Albion have not had a very rosy time in the past few matches, and as a result have dropped to second on the standings, though on goal difference. They are without a win in their last four league matches and really need a boost. Charlton on the other hand, are really struggling to cope in the Championship. The fact that they have been dominated by West Brom in earlier matches will not help their situation. They have a poor run at home and face a side with a fairly good run away from home. One positive though is that Charlton have scored pretty regularly in the last 15 matches at home while West Brom do not keep many clean sheets. Based on the two sides’ defensive and attacking returns, we expect both to score but we will go for a West Brom win. We are backing them to dominate this clash and thus we will go for them to win in both halves.
