Strasbourg have been fairly poor on the road this season, their last match being a perfect example of this, but at the Stade de la Meinau they have been a completely different team with confident performances wowing their home fans. They've won four of their last five matches in the east of France with tough teams like Nice (1-0), Montpellier (1-0 and Nantes (2-1) being brushed aside. They've lost just two of their eleven home games this season (three of these came in their Europa League qualifiers) with them averaging 1.72 goals scored and 0.81 goals conceded in this time.
Pochettino was the first to go, followed by Emery and then Sánchez Flores - and we know Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Silva are by no means safe. What have they done to deserve this? Not enough, seems to be the answer. I remember the then Bolton manager, Ian Greaves, referring to the third round of the FA Cup as 'sacking time' - and it was in those days. But now no manager's job is safe at any period in the season.
Valencia beat Barcelona 2-0 in La Liga on Saturday with Rodrigo appearing as a substitute on his return from injury.

This looks an excellent opportunity for the Lakers to get another away win. They are in good form this month with nine wins already recorded. The same can't be said of their opponents who have had a disastrous start to the new year. Another defeat looks on the cards for Brooklyn, so back the Lakers to win this.

These were either made to individuals or to inflate sponsorship deals, which allowed the club to meet financial fair play regulations.
Minutes after blocking a powerful Harrison strike, Belgian defender De Wijs once again threw his body in the way of a Leeds ball into the box but unwittingly slid the ball past Hull keeper George Long. The Whites had their Spanish keeper Casilla to thank for their second - his reaction save from a Hull corner launching a breakaway which saw Alioski sweep in a rebound. Leeds are now unbeaten in 10 Championship matches, conceding just three times in that time, with this their fourth consecutive clean sheet.
Both teams scored in 67% of Sparta’s and 53% of Heracles matches this season, so we can expect to see goals being scored by both teams this weekend, especially as the hosts haven’t failed to score at home this season and Heracles have no clean sheets away from home and have conceded in both halves of away games in 43% of their trips on the road.

Sporting KC will head to this game as the form team going by their performance at the group stages, and also by Vancouver Whitecaps’ who made it through by the slimmest of margins.

I think kuktosh is underestimated in this match, they started the season better, they scored 3 goals and their defense did not aloud to their opponents to score a goal at all and on the other side khujand defense is not that good and they already conceded 4 goals so I think kuktosh is going to win in this game and most probably keep clean sheet one more time but the odd is so good on them that my first prediction and advice will be to go with double chance on kuktosh, but I really believe in them and that is why I go with this

Well the odds here are too good to be missed. Both teams are in bad shape . Isloch maybe is the team with better quality but that is not that much and plus Gorodeya at home are a very solid team. Both teams are going to have some troubles with the squad as they both have quite a few injured players. Both team performance lately are not promising and both coaches will not force too much here and I think both teams will settle in for a draw at this one under all of this circumstances happening. This should be even match
Thankfully, the Chelsea keeper took the joke in good taste, replying to the post saying "this is absolutely true. I miss you Cesc Fabregas". The Spanish midfielder left the London side at the end of last season to join Ligue 1's Monaco, but he has not been shy in reminiscing about his time at Chelsea on social media. In recent weeks he has shared fan videos from his time at Chelsea, wished the club a happy birthday and retweeted Kepa Arrizabalaga's tweet celebrating the win against Liverpool in the FA Cup.
Dr Anton Nachreiner, chairman of the DFB control committee, added: "Of course, the DFB control committee always has the requirements of the Fifa football rules and the DFB regulations in mind.

The Football Association said it would take a "common sense approach" to any protests such as those seen in the Bundesliga when English football resumes later this month.

Whilst we think Crewe will come out of this game with the win, we think it’ll be a close encounter and quite nervy at times. As a result, we’re backing Crewe to win 1-0, a result that would be enough to get them into the fourth round of the cup and boost their excellent season even further. Barnsley, whilst be disappointed with a loss, won’t dwell on a defeat here as they aim to escape the drop to League One where the two teams could meet again next season.
