For my job it's not good to have this window so open," Ancelotti told reporters on Friday ahead of Crystal Palace's league visit. For a manager, it's the best way for the season to start and the window to close. You have to manage players for a month who want to leave. It's more difficult. Everton have had an upturn in from since Ancelotti took charge, losing only once in their last 10 league games to move out of the relegation zone and up to ninth.
Blackpool, who find themselves lingering in the mid-table section, will see this poor home form as an opportunity. The Seasiders are just two points adrift of the playoff places and have made themselves very difficult to beat, although their lack of winning spirit is becoming a problem.
The Mariners have received a welcome shot of confidence as they are undefeated in their last four league matches and have even won their last two. However, it is noticeable that those wins have come in no small part thanks to keeping a clean sheet, and the fact that they have failed to score more than once in each of their last 13 matches shows you just how essential it is for them to keep the opposition out at the other end.
Both of these teams lost before the international break against well established Eredivisie sides and will be looking at Sunday’s clash as a great opportunity to add a much needed three points to their season’s tally.

Another match from this competition where I see surely better home team and I will bet on that option. Of course, I'm not sure that this duel will be play with fans, or with probably empty stadium, like it was the case yesterday in Germany Bundesliga, when M'Gladbach is beat Koln 2-1. In any case, I see good match of home team who is in last round in this competition beat Red Bull Salzburg 4-1 and then as a guest, played against them 2-2. Basel is not in good form and they will surely lost this duel, I'm sure in that.
Barcelona have an ideal opportunity to clinch the goup with a win over Borussia Dortmund. They are in good form and top of La Liga with an incredible home record in this competition.

January signing Bruno Fernandes was again the standout performer in midfield, scoring the opener from the penalty spot before creating goals for Odion Ighalo and Scott McTominay.
He had to go elsewhere and play non-league football. To show the attitude he did. England and won a Golden Boot so in terms of working for it and scrapping for it, he is a great example. Ian Wright: "He was clinical in the box and scored goals from everywhere. There was a lot of one-touch finishes where he just arrived at the right time at the near post. When he was scoring those goals at Sunderland I thought someone was going to take him away but it didn't quite happen.

Al Mojzel will host Al Taee for this fixture of the league. Both teams have a poor results in the last matches. However, the visitors have better team than their opponent. In any case, the visitors have a real chance to make a positive result. I expect, Al Taee will try to pick up the victory on the opposite stadium. Also, we have Al Mojzel who's is one of the worst teams in this campaign. I think, the hosts have a very difficult task in this game. They have a very vulnerable defense. So, I think, Al Taee will closer to victory.
This is now arguably Arsenal’s most important competition, given that they’re out of Europe and have a pretty significant task on their hands to qualify for the Champions League, even with Manchester City’s UEFA ban creating an extra spot in the Premier League.

Well there is just no way to compare this two teams. Levadia are among the best teams at the league for sure and they will fight for the title alongside Flora and Kalju.

They are at the bottom with only 2 pts and overall of 0 - 2 - 6 ; 6 - 13 which speaks for itself. There is huge quality gap between this two teams .
Everton are by far the better side here. Norwich are still struggling after their promotion to the Premier League, despite their fine finish in the Championship last season. They have the second worst defence in the league, and they don’t score a lot. That, and their performance on the road, are the major factors as to why they are bottom of the standings. While Everton have scored at least two per game in four of the last five, Norwich have not scored in any of their last six away matches. Playing away to Everton will not be so appealing for Norwich at his point in time. Here we will go for a 2-0 win for Everton.
