Nantes have the better form going to this game and they have also been dominant in matches against Angers, save for the last three fixtures that they have not managed a win. Angers have a poor away record, and we can’t say the same against Nantes when playing at home. Nantes are clearly the stronger of these two sides and we will be putting our money on them winning.
He was banned for seven months and summarily sacked. Chelsea believe the club's social responsibility to its fans, players, employees and other stakeholders in football regarding drugs was more important than the major financial considerations to the company," the club said as they wrote off the asset they had paid Parma north of £15m for a little over a year before. In an unprecedented legal action, Chelsea have pursued Mutu for millions of pounds in compensation for more than a decade since.
Like their hosts, Zenit have been up and down in Group G. At times, especially at home, they've offered plenty going forward, though they've also shown a soft under-belly, conceding in all but one of their five matches.
Real, despite finishing third in La Liga, qualified because Barcelona won La Liga and finished runner-ups in the Copa del Rey. Zinedine Zidane's side, who are second in La Liga on goal difference, dominated from the start and had 17 attempts on goal at King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah. Their margin of victory could have been bigger as Isco's header hit the post before Luka Jovic's rebound from two yards out was blocked by Domenech.
This margin on goals is pretty small and odds are very very bad, or in this moment just 1,33 what is too small. So, that is reason why I will take here still home win, what is for me pretty ok and real to try. Istiqlol is the best, biggest and richest team in this country, so it is pretty clear that they will win new title here, without any problems. In September last year, they are last time played against Kuktosh as a guests, and beat them even 6-1. I believe in similar match and this time, so I will try.
West Ham are currently 17th in the Premier League, just one point above the drop zone although they do have a game in hand.

But Leeds showed the greater fluency and quality in an often frenetic match and created the better chances throughout, with Patrick Bamford, Stuart Dallas and Hernandez all denied by impressive Boro keeper Aynsley Pears on United's way to a third consecutive win. Relive Wednesday's Championship actionAs impressive as Pears was, Leeds should have added to their goal tally in a victory which sees them remain five points ahead of Fulham, who moved back up to third with a dramatic late win over Swansea City.

At the start of this season Aarhus which is having a really good season so far by their own standards won with no less than 3-0 away from home at Brondby but they also won recently with 4-2 at home against Sonderjyske despite the fact that they conceded 2 goals there as their defense is not that strong at times and Brondby won two games in a row away from home at this moment and only lost with 3-2 here last season so instead of taking the home win to happen I prefer to be betting on over 3.5 goals being scored in this one.
Lawro's prediction: 1-1Samuel's prediction: I'm kind of fighting with my answer here but I am going to go with Arsenal, because they have some amazing attacking players and they have just clicked recently. I know Villa are fighting right now but Everton's equaliser against them last week hurt them a lot. WEDNESDAY Man Utd v West Ham (18:00 BST)Manchester United are at home, against a West Ham side who know they are not getting relegated because of their goal difference.
They have scored more goals this season than Liverpool's Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane. In fact, Ivan Toney, Marcus Maddison and Mo Eisa have a combined goals total that is higher than every other club in England's top four divisions - with the exception of Manchester City and Oxford United. Peterborough United have long been associated with developing up-and-coming strikers, selling around £30m of attacking talent over the past decade.
Is he right? Maybe, he has a point on all of the above. But as yet it’s unclear whether this stuttering iteration of Spurs is down to Mourinho’s influence (which his detractors will have you believe) or due to the “painful transition” that his predecessor hinted at last summer. Because this is a Spurs side lacking an identity.
Walter Ferretti are the worthy favourites to win this quarter final tie. They ended the season in good form with four wins from their last five games. Home form is strong with goals galore and four straight clean sheets. Jalapa started the season well but finished poorly. They earned just two points from their last five matches and only won one away game in the regular season. Go for a home win here.
What we feel obliged to achieve is a Champions League place," said the 24-year-old. We are thinking one game at a time, then we will see where we are. A message to Juventus?

PASALIC NOT HANGING ABOUT Atalanta took a huge step towards Champions League qualification when Mario Pasalic scored the winning goal just 19 seconds after coming off the bench in a 2-1 victory over AS Roma.
That's why he plays. Have you seen the games? " Two shots on target (against Newcastle) and we conceded. We will improve.

This is a football match from the Premier league and we have Newcastle United playing host to Everton. I think there's a good chance for seeing 2 goals in this match. Newcastle is not the ideal team for playing overseas they are a very defensive team and chances they should present much goals or concede are very slim however they did concede 4 goals in their last match against Man Utd and they also scored. This is a match they'll believe they can win and I believe they will be more offensive, we can easily see 2 goals here but I'd be a bit safe
PSG ready to give Mbappe a new deal Paris Saint-Germain are ready to ward off interest from Real Madrid in Kylian Mbappe. The Spanish side are desperate to sign the 20-year-old striker but the French champions want to extend his deal by three years until 2025. He is also in line for a hefty salary raise, with the Spanish newspaper Marca suggesting he will be offered 25 million euros per season.
West Ham picked up their first away win in the Premier League since December (1-0 v Southampton), ending a run of eight games on the road without a win (D1 L7).

Aston Villa are on a relegation spot and have the worst defense so far in the league conceding 56 goals already in the 28 games. In the last 3 home games in the league they conceded 10 goals. However, since half September last year Aston Villa have also scored in each home game.
I wanted him to show if he wanted to do it and do it physically. I'm so happy with him. He is scoring important goals and as a captain he is giving a great example to everyone else with the way he is working defensively. Aubameyang's current contract runs until the summer of 2021. He has been linked with a transfer to Barcelona, who reportedly tried to sign him in January. They are completely right to want him because he is a superb player," continued Arteta.
Simeone has already attempted a rebuild - more than one - and so boardroom patience might be wearing thin. They might hesitate in delivering even more expensive signings to the Argentine and may have been a factor in the club’s reluctance to get a January deal done for Edinson Cavani. Contrast this to the way Zidane has methodically overhauled Real Madrid’s squad since the summer, successfully integrating Ferland Mendy, Eder Militao, Fede Valverde and Rodrygo.
Everton find themselves stuck in 12th, just 10 points off the relegation zone. Talking point - Gilmour looks the real deal There will be plenty of ups and downs to come in the next few years of an emerging career for Billy Gilmour, but he glided across the pitch with a preternatural poise. Mount and Gilmour could be at the heart of this Chelsea side for a decade - though there is much to prove for the both still.

Come the home Euros now, I'll be 31 going on 32. That could potentially be a completely different question with the management. Who knows. Hopefully age doesn't play a factor. We'll see what happens. With Japan being hot and humid, another year playing in those conditions will help. I just have to keep motivated and injury free, and hope all the stars align. Jade Moore was speaking to BBC Sport's Jo Currie.
As anyone who has tuned into the Champions League since the start of last season will suspect, Ajax are the powerhouses of the division and only appear to have one realistic challenger, AZ Alkmaar, three points behind in second. Their opponents, Sparta, have enjoyed a decent return to the top flight after winning promotion last season.
Bradley is one of the most prolific goalscorers in MLS history and the type of player that can be a difference-maker for us,” LAFC General Manager John Thorrington said in a statement. The Londoner played in 32 games for Manchester City between 2004-06 and was at Southampton from 2006-2009. Center back Reid, 31, has not made a competitive senior appearance since March 2018 due to injuries.
Manchester CityNewcastle 2. Glenn's goal-den contribution Glenn Murray's goal was his first of the yearEvery team needs a Glenn Murray. Not only does the veteran Brighton striker seem like a thoroughly decent bloke but he is also pretty good at finding the back of the net.

Watford is in amazing form right now and have won all 3 of their home matches under their new coach Nigel Pearson. He took took over and changed the body language of the team wholly. Watford have also won their last 7 FA Cup matches in front of their own fans. In contrast, Tranmere is in very bad form anf coming from a defeat against Coventry by 4-1 goals. They were also thrashed 7-0 by Tottenham at this stage of the competition last year and this is likely to be a similarly one-sided contest. I expect Watford to score at least 3 goals.
He could benefit from another season before being unleashed in an international tournament. The same could be said for Trent Alexander-Arnold. Unstoppable for club; underwhelming for country. Likewise, Tammy Abraham, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and, to a lesser extent, Mason Grenwood have stepped up this season.
Any use of the government's support schemes without genuine financial need is detrimental to the wider society. In instances where clubs have the resources to pay all staff, the benefit of players paying non-playing staff salaries will only serve the business of the club's shareholders. Hancock's comments came on a day when the number of UK deaths from coronavirus rose to 2,921 and followed those made by Conservative colleague Julian Knight, who is chair of the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport committee.
Watford come into this game in better form, but, as the old adage goes, form goes out the window in the FA Cup. While Pearson would like to advance, he won't play a team that he needs for Premier League survival. This will give Tranmere an opportunity to upset and we believe that they have a solid chance of taking that chance. We recommend a double chance bet on the League One outfit.
