We’re confident that Braga will win and over 2.5 goals will be scored in the process and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-1. Braga are the favourites and have the home advantage but are yet to really get going this season and both teams have played to a very similar standard so far, which is why we believe Saturday’s cup tie will be very close.
It is] useful, helpful and small step forward, but not the giant leap that we need - so this should be part of a much bigger strategy. It is part of the answer but not the whole answer. The initiative, which was announced on Monday and will start next season, will give six coaches a 23-month work placement at EFL clubs per campaign. PFA members at any age or stage in their careers can apply. This is a critical time for black, Asian and minority ethnic coaches," said Doncaster Rovers manager Darren Moore, who is chair of the Premier League's black participants' advisory group.

Subs: Gray 6, Quina 6. Key events 38’ - GOAL! Liverpool 1-0 Watford. Salah scores - Mane picks out Salah behind the defence and he cuts onto his right foot in the box, and curls a shot into the top corner past Foster. WATFORD MISS - Deulofeu drives a shot at a tight angle that Alisson palms away. It's into the path of Sarr, who can volley it home, and he misses the connection almost entirely! 50’ - GOAL! Liverpool 2-0 Watford.
Liverpool are eight points ahead of Leicester but gameweek 17 looks favourable for the Foxes. They host Norwich City, a side they have beaten in their last three Premier League meetings. It's hard to look past Jamie Vardy, who has scored in each of his last eight Premier League games, just three goals short of his own record of netting in consecutive games, set in November 2015. At the other end, the Foxes have the meanest defence in the league having only conceded 10 goals, so goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel, centre-back Jonny Evans and left-back Ben Chilwell could be in line for their eighth clean sheet of the season.
Over the 24 seasons in which the Premier League has contained 20 teams, 37 points is the average benchmark for survival. There are eight sides in the division who are yet to reach the tally. Two of those - Newcastle and Southampton - are just a single win away, but Norwich are potentially looking at at least five victories from their remaining nine games to give themselves a fighting chance of staying up - the same number they managed from their first 29 games.

Posted at 43' Foul by Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool). Vinicius Junior and Sergio Ramos both scored delightful goals as Real Madrid returned to the top of La Liga by easing past Mallorca. Zinedine Zidane's side are level on 68 points with Barcelona but lead by virtue of a better head-to-head record. Brazilian Vinicius chipped in a first-half opener and Ramos curled home a brilliant free-kick in the second half.
It's a nod to the slang here, and if you're from here you know it. If you've been here, you know it. It's just something a little fun. Proceeds of sales go to help local youth teams like Kensington Soccer Club, AC Fairhill and Anderson Monarchs, who provide assistance to young players who may not be able to pay for fees. We started doing fundraisers, creating a bunch of weird stuff - products from jerseys to hats to T-shirts and hoodies with the goal of supporting some of the great programmes around Philadelphia, but also being a little wacky, a little sarcastic, a little fun," added Imhof.
Liverpool 5-0 Watford (17 March 2018) The Egypt international produced an attacking masterclass against Watford in his first season in England, scoring four goals and assisting another in a comprehensive victory at Anfield. Bournemouth 0-4 Liverpool (8 December 2018) Against the Cherries in 2018-19, Salah scored his second hat-trick for the club since arriving from Roma to send Liverpool top of the table - before handing his man-of-the-match award to James Milner.
Both teams scored in 57% of Emmen’s home games and in 57% of PSV’s away games this season and the hosts have only failed to score in 14% of their home games and the visitors have failed to score in the same percentage of their away games, which is why we have backed both teams to score this weekend.
But three minutes later in a frantic contest, Frimpong was sent off after fouling Morelos in the box, only for Forster to save the Colombian's penalty. Fraser Forster was outstanding," said Lennon. He made some unbelievable saves, world-class saves. We didn't get going in the first half, second half we were better. The introduction of Odsonne [Edouard] gave us a real spark. The mentality of the team is amazing.

No positive results in latest Premier League coronavirus testsView more on twitterAt Old Trafford, Harry Maguire captained a 'home' Manchester United team against an 'away' side led by Bruno Fernandes. It marked the first time Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men had played on home soil since their 2-0 win over derby rivals Manchester City on 8 March - their final match before lockdown. It had been even longer since Marcus Rashford and Paul Pogba had done so, last featuring for United on 26 December and 15 January respectively before long injury lay-offs.
Fingers crossed, it's actually done me a favour in the long run, to have that downtime and then ramp up the training again. The virus has seen the Olympic Games and the Women's Euros delayed, but Moore is hopeful that the wait will not impact on her selection chances. Everyone's a year older. Then the Euros, people are two years older. That plays a massive part when it comes to selection," she continued.
Strasbourg vs St Etienne predictions for Saturday's match in Ligue 1. Mid-table rivals Strasbourg and Saint-Etienne go head to head in Ligue 1 this weekend where a win for the home side will see them leapfrog their guests. Read on for all our free predictions and betting tips.
The ECHR decided the European Convention of Human Rights had been violated because the arbitration panel was appointed by the TFF's directors, and therefore Riza had legitimate reason to doubt it had approached his case with the necessary independence and impartiality. So what relevance does all this have to Manchester City - a dominant force in the English game - as they prepare to appeal to Cas, and ramp up their fight against a shattering punishment?A punishment that has done immeasurable damage to the club's reputation, added to the controversy surrounding owners already accused of using the club to furnish or 'sportswash' Abu Dhabi's image and divert from its questionable human rights record.
Blues boss Frank Lampard is looking to replace the attacking prowess of Eden Hazard and owner Roman Abramovich is willing to splash the cash. Chelsea could replicate a similar agreement to the one last January with the German side, in which a transfer for Christian Pulisic was completed, but the American winger was loaned back to the Bundesliga for the remainder of the season.
The 55-year-old who won the 1990 World Cup as a player with West Germany, has also coached the German national team, leading them to a third place finish at the 2006 World Cup at home. He was sacked from his U. S. World Cup qualifiers and the team eventually failed to qualify for the tournament in Russia.
Peterborough have kept three clean sheets in their last five outings while Bolton have conceded 12 goals in their last six matches. Peterborough have won six of their nine home games this season and Bolton have lost six of their seven away games, with the hosts averaging 2.22 points per home game and the visitors averaging 0.43 points per away game, all of which points towards a home win on Saturday.
Even with their domestic failures, Emery’s side remain unbeaten in all competitions at home this season, and they have scored at least two goals in eight of their 10 matches. Frankfurt, meanwhile, have shipped two or more goals in five of their nine away games since the Bundesliga season started, so we think backing Arsenal Over 1.5 Team Goals looks a great choice here.
I think both teams will be motivated to win in this game, karvina on one side because they are not safe from relegation and also at home they are pretty good and also they have a great chance of scoring cause on the other side Sparta looks very bad at the moment but still Sparta is going to be motivated to win cause they need to try to get into playoff and right now they are 3 points away from that so I think 1-1 is going to be the score in some moment of the game so I surely recommend this bet
La Paillade have struggled when playing away from home though with the recent cup win over lower-league opposition their only away victory of the season in any competition. Even when travelling to struggling teams like Saint-Étienne (0-0), Metz (2-2) and Dijon (2-2) they have faltered and this will be a worry for Der Zakarian as they go to the north of France.
Recreativo da Caala fc has been beaten by the visitors at their home ground by two goals to one so I think they are like a wounded lion which needs to revenge so I opined that the home team is going to take all points from this game.

Only 31% of Salford’s home games have produced over 2.5 goals and the average total goals scored in front of their home fans is 2.23, which ties in well with our prediction for a 1-1 draw on Saturday. 46% of Salford’s home games and 50% of Northampton’s away games have seen both teams score and we’re expecting those percentages to increase this weekend.
EVERTON CHANCE! Calvert-Lewin sees his goal-bound shot brilliantly blocked after good work by Richarlison on the left of the area. KEY STATS Gabriel Martinelli's effort in the 44th minute was Arsenal's first shot in the match, their longest wait for a first attempt in a Premier League game since May 2015 against Man Utd (51st minute).
Rangers' home form bodes well ahead of this match, though backing them to simply win may not be the best bet. The bet that really stands out is 'Over 2.5 Goals & Both Teams to Score'. Rangers may not have conceded at home yet, but they struggled massively to keep Young Boys at bay when the pair met in the reverse fixture. Moreover, the visitors have scored in 100% of their matches in Group G and haven't failed to score away from home in the Europa League since 2016. Add to this the fact that Rangers have scored in each of their group games and plumping for goals is hard to avoid. The fact that the pair average 2.8 goals for between them in Group G also fuels the selection.
With four clean sheets recorded and just three goals conceded in their seven matches at San Mames this term, Bilbao have the defensive strength and nous to cope with a Granada side that have been fairly prolific scorers since their promotion (20 goals netted in 14 games) and they can also expose Nazaries frail backline (14 conceded in seven away) with goals of their own beginning to flow steadily in recent matches.
Darmstadt 98 have been very difficult to beat at home so far this season with only 1 defeat in 13 matches. And since the winter break they have been in good form with a 4-3-1 record in 8 matches. At home Darmstadt 98 have kept a clean sheet in the last 3 games.

Home side should not be underdog at this game, since they are in the playoff place from the begin, and manage to beat some top favorites in the season. They are going into this one, after scoring two goals for big victory against Juventus,. and home side should not be one of the rivals, that are hard to beat at this ground.
But we want to play a good game of course and maintain our form. It's the kind of game where you can confirm you're on a good run. We want to win because we're at home and we want to play good football. PSG only need a point in the Spanish capital to finish top of Group A and have been boosted by the return of Brazil forward Neymar. Neymar, who has featured in just six games for PSG this season, managed 65 minutes in the 2-0 win over Lille on Friday that extended Thomas Tuchel's side's lead at the top of Ligue 1 to 11 points.
Brophy twice had the chance to bury the tie, first ghosting through only to be superbly denied by Lewis, and then curling just wide with 10 minutes left after a swift counter-attack. Aberdeen's attacking strategy consisted mainly of balls into the box, McGinn's toe-poked volley just past a post aside, and as desperation grew they left themselves increasingly open, but had little choice in pursuit of the crucial equaliser.
I believe we can even see a 2 goals or bigger win for the hosts in this one as after two games in a row without a win they are forced to win this time if they are to stay in the fight for the top 4 places this season and to play in the Champions League next season. They are missing attacking player Embolo but otherwise Plea and Thuram as strikers should provide plenty of threat for the Union Berlin defense. Even though in the reverse fixture it was Union Berlin who won the game with 2-0 in the end and I do expect hard defending from them here as well.
Vorskla will host Dnipro-1 for this fixture of the league. Both teams are of the teams of the relegation group. Vorskla are currently on the 10th place with 23 points. Vorskla is not very good team in the last matches. They have only 1 victory in their last 5 matches. Also, we have Dnipro-1 who's is very average team in this campaign. Dnipro-1 are currently on the 7th place with 34 points. However, Dnipro-1 are in solid shape in recent times. They have four consecutive victories. So, the visitors have an effective attack in the last matches. I think, they will have the potential to continue the winning track.
The minnows caused a shock last season with a stunning 2-1 victory against the Catalans, and will be hoping to take advantage of their opponents' mixed start to the season to spring another surprise. Unfortunately for them, Lionel Messi continued his outstanding goalscoring form over the international break, netting in both of Argentina’s games to make it 11 goals in his last nine appearances for club and country.
HAZARD AND MARCELO BOTH INJURED Real are second in La Liga, locked on 36 points with leaders Barcelona after Wednesday's 0-0 draw in the 'Clasico'. Zidane will still be without injured pair Eden Hazard and Marcelo for the game against seventh-placed Athletic and will also be missing midfield anchor Casemiro through suspension.
The Bayern Munich and Poland forward has scored a remarkable 39 goals in 33 appearances for his club this season. Bayern's team is full of other household names but one player to keep an eye on is 19-year-old Canada left-back Alphonso Davies, who was in sensational form before the break. Media playback is not supported on this device BBC Sport profiles Norwegian striking sensation Erling Braut Haaland Lewandowski's minutes-per-goal ratio in the Bundesliga (82) pales in comparison to Erling Braut Haaland of Borussia Dortmund (57).
Hancock had previously said players should "take a pay cut and play their part". Former England captain and Match of the Day presenter Gary Lineker tweeted he was "proud of our players". Footballers are doing their bit as I was confident they would," he wrote. Let's hope that others that are in a position to help, those that weren't unfairly targeted, do likewise. More than 7,000 people have died with coronavirus in the UK, according to the latest Department of Health figures.
Let's start with the facts. Liverpool are top of the table and deservedly so. They are European champions, world champions and seemingly on course to be English champions for the first time since 1990. Despite playing one game fewer, they have 13 more points than second-placed Leicester and 14 more than reigning champions Manchester City. Reds boss Jurgen Klopp may not be celebrating yet but his equivalent at Manchester City, Pep Guardiola, has given up on the title, while Leicester's Brendan Rodgers has all but conceded.
