I am going to say Saints win. West Ham v West BromPremier League (17th)vChampionship (1st)Who did they beat?3R: Gillingham (C) A3R: Charlton (C) AWest Brom have hit the buffers in a big way in the Championship and have not won in the league since 14 December. They are only still top because Leeds have done something similar. From what Baggies boss - and former West Ham manager - Slaven Bilic has been saying about their fixture list and fatigue, it does not sound like they particularly want an FA Cup run.
They start this weekend one place and a point above the bottom three but take on sixth placed Tottenham Hotspur. Villa have only won three of their last 12 league games and two of those have been against fellow relegation candidates. They just struggle for consistency in terms of getting results. However, they are far more consistent when it comes to conceding goals with only Norwich failing to score against them in their last 12 league fixtures.
Fair play to the sly old dog. BielsaOut - do yourselves a favour and pipe down Marcelo Bielsa has done an incredible job at Leeds. He has made a fairly bog-standard team more than the sum of its parts. This led to the Elland Road club just missing out on automatic promotion to the Premier League last season to Sheffield United, the same Blades side that sit a heady fifth in the Premier League at the time of writing.

It is true that Reds were poor in every department at Watford last weekend, as they lost their unbeaten record in the Premier League. Tuesday was a little bit different, though, because they made lots of chances as they went out of the FA Cup at Chelsea, but looked vulnerable at the back. That was unusual to see with Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez together at centre-back, but you have to remember it was not Jurgen Klopp's strongest side - there were some kids mixed in there too.
Read the full story A marriage made in heaven Manchester United are pursuing Real Madrid forward Marten Odegaard, according to the Daily Mail. The newspaper claims that the 21-year-old Danish international has impressed for Real Sociedad this season, and has attracted attention from United. The Spanish club can extend the loan period for another season, but he could make the switch to Old Trafford.
Spurs were wasteful, lethargic and lacking in ideas in the opening 45 minutes, having just four touches in the opposition box with none of those coming for Kane, who was more involved in his own penalty area. The club's record signing, Tanguy Ndombele, had played just 19 minutes since being hauled off at half-time during Spurs' 1-1 draw at Burnley in March but was thrown on at the break to try to inject some life into the visitors.
The statement from UEFA also advised their decision on dates for other competitions such as the Champions League and Europa League final, will be announced in due course. Copa America postponed to 2021 This year's Copa America has been postponed until 2021 due to fears over the spread of the coronavirus, the South American Football Confederation (CONMEBOL) said on Tuesday.
To an outsider it may not seem like an obvious choice. In reality, Ibrahimovic's move looks incredibly savvy and suggests he or whoever is advising him has been paying attention. When the 38-year-old told Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet on Wednesday that Hammarby are the club with "the greatest potential to become the biggest in Scandinavia" he wasn't exaggerating. Who are Hammarby?While Gothenburg and Malmo have an international reputation with the silverware to back it up, Hammarby have only won one league title in their history, and a lack of European credentials mean they have received little exposure outside of Sweden.
Leeds United strengthened their position at the top of the Championship table with a resounding victory at Blackburn Rovers. The visitors took an early lead when Mateusz Klich tackled Lewis Travers 30 yards from goal and slipped the ball through for Patrick Bamford to slot home. Lewis Holtby thundered an effort against the post for Rovers before Kalvin Phillips curled in a superb 25-yard free-kick to give the Whites a 2-0 lead at the break.
Paris St-Germain manager Thomas Tuchel says the club "do not lack respect" for Edinson Cavani after the striker's father accused the French champions of treating his son "unfairly". Cavani has asked to leave PSG with Atletico Madrid having made an approach for the 32-year-old Uruguay striker. PSG beat Reims 3-0 in the French League Cup on Wednesday with Cavani missing. It is a shame that he could not be here with us, he did not feel good with his groin," said Tuchel.
The last three encounters between these two clubs have produced under 2.5 goals while no more than two goals have been scored in three of Den Haag’s and four of Groningen’s last five matches, so you can begin to see why we are backing a low-scoring draw this weekend.
Aguero's prospective lay-off. He has a tendon problem in front - will be a few games out. He added: "We will miss Sergio. We have had some problems with injuries but we will wait for him and meanwhile we have [Gabriel Jesus] and [Raheem] Sterling who can play in that position. We will live without him for a while.
In fact, far from feeling fatigued, Liverpool will be on a massive high and just looking forward to playing their next game - especially one as big as this. If you look at the league table, then you would say a draw would be a decent result for them on Thursday - but this Liverpool team does not think like that. We have seen time and again, by the way they play, that they want to win every game and they are just so hard to overcome.
I'm not really into spicy food'While a stack of fluffy American pancakes has proved the ideal recovery meal post-match, Invernesian Ross has struggled with the local cuisine. I'm not really into spice, so that's been tough," he said. There's chillies added to random things. I'm getting used to, it's not like Mexican food like fajitas at home - it's proper stuff. Despite that, Ross is enjoying life in El Paso.
Notts County will host Eastleigh for this fixture of the league. No doubt, Notts County are more ambitious team in this season. They are currently on the 3rd place with 60 points. Also, Notts County are in solid shape. They have three consecutive victories. Nevertheless, this will not be an easy job. I think, the hosts will have to invest a great effort in this game. On the other hand Eastleigh is very average team in this season. However, this is a very unpredictable league. I expect, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance. My pick - Eastleigh to win.
Joelinton headed wide early on for the Magpies, supported by a big away following at the Hawthorns, with the Brazilian forward then denied by goalkeeper Jonathan Bond. Allan Saint-Maximin hit the post before going on a fine individual run to tee up Almiron for the Premier League side's opener after 33 minutes.
Dwight Yorke (29), Andrew Cole (24) and Solskjaer (18) managed a combined 71 goals in the 1998-99 Treble-winning season. The 2008 Champions League-winning team managed even more goals from their top three scorers. Cristiano Ronaldo (42), Carlos Tevez (19) and Rooney (18) managed 79 between them. That mark was matched in 2002-03, with Ruud van Nistelrooy scoring 44, Paul Scholes on 20 and Solskjaer netting 15.

While neither of these sides are at the top of the league right now, they will both be hoping that they can mount some sort of run which puts them in that sort of position. As the fixture list gets more hectic and the pitches take more out of the players, it becomes more and more important to have a good squad. That is something which only benefits the hosts in this match and, given that their visitors have gone off the boil in recent weeks, we think that the three points will stay with Bantams on this occasion.

How did fans find the match-watching experience?For those watching the action at home, they had the option to watch the game with either pre-recorded crowd noises or just with the live stadium sounds - predominantly the shouts of players and their managers echoing around the empty grounds. When we asked on our live text commentary page which they preferred, it was a pretty close-run thing. BBC Sport readers preferred to watch the game with fake crowd noises provided, but only justA select few fans did get to watch the game from 'inside' the ground.
What disappointed me was him pushing the player after it. We're big on discipline and I had a quiet word with him about it. Lennon also confirmed winger Marian Shved has been dropped from Celtic's Europa League squad for the knockout stage. Right-back Jeremie Frimpong as well as new signings Patryk Klimala and Ismaila Soro have been added before this month's last-32 tie against Copenhagen. VAR will be used in that tie and Lennon says he has had briefings with head of referee development Crawford Allan and long-serving match official Willie Collum.
You need to be really strong as a referee in this atmosphere. Already in the first 30 minutes three of their players went to the ground, I don't know what for," Klopp told reporters. They got a result, the stadium wasn't here to see sensational football. Atletico were here to squeeze a result out of this game, they got the result and so they are happy and we are not that happy.

The hosts are clear league leaders after only finishing 5th in the league standings last season but they have qualified for the Europa League competition as they won the cup and have drawn in normal time at the start of this new season the Super Cup away at Klaksvik who won the title last term 1-1, but lost it on penalties, but in the league they have been really superb winning even on the road 4-2 at city rivals from B36 Torshavn who finished 2nd in the league last season and won on opening round with 2-0 away at Klaksvik.
Twente lost their last three matches of 2019 and will be looking to start the new year much more positively at home to a Groningen side that secured a 2-0 victory at home to Emmen in their last league games before the winter break. Just three positions and 6pts separate these two mid-table clubs and four of the pairs’ last six encounters have seen both teams score, with each team picking up two wins and a draw during that period, and we’re expecting a close and competitive ninety minutes between the duo on Saturday.

Derby County is the most disappointing name of the English First Division this season. From being considered a promotion candidate, "The sheep" is currently diving in the 12th position with 54 points, 3 points behind the play-off position. Although this is not a big difference, Derby County can do better to deserve the trust of the fans.

Match of Russian Premier League where team Tambov will play at home with team Lokomotiv. My bet will be here on hosts with asian handicap +1. Many players from national teams are played their matches last 6 days . After 3 days they must to play with Tambov . I think it is a hard schedule for Lokomotiv and their chances to win are not so high. Hosts are in a great form and won last 3 games. Lokomotiv after last 4 games did 2 victories and 2 defeats. A draw will be a good result for both teams in this game .
dinamo Minsk is playing terrible since the season started, they have 3-0-5 score and they are closer to the relegation zone then to the top of the table but still at home they are very strong and which is even more important their defense is pretty good so I Think bad isloch offense is not going to be able to score any goals today and on the other side dinamo offense is surely not enough good to score more than two goals so for me surely under 2.5 goals and of course I want to recommend this bet to the anyone

During the exclusion period, both Euro 92 and World Cup 94 were competitions missing a truly great side. Famously, last-minute call-ups Denmark won against all odds in 1992. However, it is the 1994 World Cup which could have seen this group victorious. In the 1994 Champions League final Savicevic, alongside Boban in a great AC Milan side, orchestrated the dismantling of Johan Cruyff's Barcelona. Two months later Bulgaria reached the World Cup semi-finals on the back of Hristo Stoichkov, with winners Brazil reliant on Romario's goals.

Leicester: The next generationWith just two first-team players at their peak, Leicester's mix of title-winning veterans and top-class young talent makes it arguably the most unique squad in the Premier League. With Christian Fuchs and Wes Morgan leaving, Brendan Rodgers will need defenders, while the club will one day have to attempt the Herculean task of finding the successor to Jamie Vardy, who turned 33 in January.
Our selection is bolstered by the fact that Alaves have shipped 23 goals from nine away games this term, but they have managed to score themselves in six of those fixtures. Meanwhile, Levante have kept just two clean sheets from their nine home games, so an Alaves goal is likely even though we expect the hosts to win comfortably.
Others feel 30 June would be a good time to stop given the contractual wrangles that will surface after that date. Clubs around the relegation zone think no-one should go down from a campaign that is not completed. Those with a chance of coming up from the Championship feel the concept of promotion should be maintained.
