Benevento is dominating this Serie B season and can be really competitive despite playing away, considering that they have been the best team in this League playing far from home: they have won 5 out of their 9 away matches and lost just once, so scoring twice here should be likely for them. Cittadella is fighting in the first places of the table too and has scored and conceded at least one goal in all of the last 4 matches, so at least one goal is expected by both teams. The last 3 official games between these teams have gone Over so these odds are really good to bet on another Over.

Miguel Almiron scored his first goal for Newcastle to give the Magpies a late victory against Crystal Palace and send them into the top half of the Premier League. A drab contest looked set to end in a stalemate before Andy Carroll headed a cross down for an unmarked Almiron to volley home. That saw the Paraguayan midfielder break his Newcastle goal drought on his 27th Premier League appearance since joining the Magpies from Atlanta United for a then-club record £20m in January.
In an ideal world we'd be playing in front of crowds but I think it's more a case of there being no alternative," Barnes told The Athletic. We're not in an ideal world and the players I've spoken to accept that's what it will have to be. Football is about fans. But the reality for the vast majority of the players, particularly at the highest level, is their income is funded by television money and there are contracts that have to be adhered to.

Merw is making big progress, comparing to the recent season, and with previous two big victories, they are now in the upper part, with place near Ashgabat. They have beat Ahal and Energetic in the recent two round, and now could go for the first draw on side in the season.
Arsenal by contrast looked a shadow of the side who beat Manchester United 2-0 in the Premier League on New Year's Day. But the hosts looked like a different team in the second half, with Lacazette whipping an early free-kick off the bar and David Luiz going close before Nelson made the breakthrough.
Lawro's prediction: 0-2Big Zuu's prediction: Sheffield United are still fighting for a European spot but they are not in good form, and Spurs are just starting to hit their stride under Jose Mourinho.

Read the full story Ferguson remains in charge at Everton Duncan Ferguson will take charge of Everton as they face Manchester United this weekend, with his side not yet sure who will be given the job permanently. Vitor Pereira has turned down the chance to join, and both Carlo Ancelotti and Mauricio Pochettino are candidates - though there is plenty of doubt that they will want to join, according to the Daily Mail.
Ancelotti was left infuriated after a decision by the Video Assistant Referee to disallow a late Everton winner and received his marching orders from referee Chris Kavanagh for protesting after the final whistle. Having calmed down later, the 60-year-old told reporters it was a "difficult" decision for the referee, before joking that it was not the first time he had been sent off and would not be the last.

Media playback is not supported on this device Slip 'n' slide penalties: Liverpool fans v Everton fans I would not be surprised if Everton are cautious, play three at the back and sit in a little bit - they don't want to get torn apart - so because of all that I can see it being a close game. But the way Liverpool's season has gone so far, I am still going to go with them to find a way of winning. We already know they are capable of doing that when they are not at their best.
Newcastle were in the relegation zone in October but have moved up to 10th and head coach Steve Bruce said the fans create an atmosphere that has lifted the players' morale. The supporters have been nothing short of magnificent since I arrived in the summer and I'd like to take this opportunity to say thank you to each and every one of them," he said in a statement https://www.
He told BBC Sport: "I grew up in Hackney and my dad supported them. When I was very young, I remember watching David Seaman make a spectacular save in his green jersey and I asked my dad for that jersey. From that day forward, I was in love with Arsenal. When I was growing up, Thierry Henry was my hero. He was such a special player. My favourite moment as an Arsenal fan was him coming back to us on loan in 2012 and scoring against Leeds in the FA Cup with his legendary finesse, and with that shot right into the bottom-right corner.
FH Hafnarfjordur after 10 games in the Iceland league this season won 13 points, temporarily ranked 7th in the rankings. IA Akranes currently has 11 points, ranked at 10th place.

BarcelonaLionel Messi has failed to score or assist in his last three games against Real Madrid in all competitions.

Sergi Roberto has provided six assists in eight appearances against Real Madrid in La Liga, with five of those assists resulting in Luis Suarez goals.
Juventus have lost only one of their last 29 Serie A games against Lazio (W22 D6), and only once have they not scored in that run. Meanwhile, Lazio’s last home win against Juventus in Serie A was back in December 2003. The pair have similar records with Lazio unbeaten at home and Juve unbeaten away, each winning five of seven games. However, expect them to share the points this weekend, as we’re backing a 2-2 draw.

I couldn't agree more. Not only was it a shocking decision, it didn't take into account that Moura was fouled and tried to break his fall by putting his hand out. The referee waved play on and was right to do so. Why VAR felt the need to poke its nose in, where it is not wanted or required, I don't know. Technology might be in a position to identify when a ball strikes a hand but what it can't do is apply context because it's a machine.

Aside from a single victory at Reading, Birmingham have picked up only four points from their last 10 matches. They come into this game having just ended a three-game run in the league, having shipped three goals in defeats to Hull and West Brom.

His deal also includes a buy-out clause of 300m euros (£251m). The rules allowing Barcelona to sign the 28-year-old stipulated the player they brought in must be a free agent or already playing in Spain and that they can not play in Uefa competition.

Liverpool's attacking output has been uncharacteristically modest of late, and the Reds scored exactly two goals in five of their last six Premier League wins. We're backing them to net just two more against an Everton side that they scored just twice against across their last three meetings.
Barnsley have seen over 2.5 goals in nine of their previous 11 Championship matches, so we are backing another high scoring clash between these two. West Brom remain the league’s leading scorers, so they should dish out some damage against a Barnsley side who have seen both teams score in 83% of their home games. That form has us backing over 2.5 goals here, along with a 2-1 away win.
Lawro's prediction: 4-0James' prediction: 4-0 Newcastle v LiverpoolNewcastle have not won for a while now and have taken only two points from their past five games. I don't see their fortunes changing here, although it will help them if Reds boss Jurgen Klopp makes some changes. Klopp is entitled to play whoever he wants in this one because his side's work is done and the outcome does not affect any issues at the top or bottom of the table.
There were plenty of raised eyebrows when Sunderland chose to appoint Phil Parkinson back in October. The generally feeling seemed to be that The Black Cats needed to move towards a more aggressive, flamboyant approach, which not necessarily something that Parkinson is known for.
As an alternative to the league's proposal, Rangers had put forward the plan of prize money for final placings being released now, with no leagues declared. Rangers said they "sought assistance from the SPFL executive on several occasions" on Thursday but received no reply before being told on Friday morning it was deemed "not competent" by the governing body's legal adviser. The SPFL, however, countered: "Only at 10.
Isloch will host Energetyk-BDU for this fixture of the league. I think, this is a very unpredictable league. Energetik-BGU is one of the ambitious teams in this campaign. They are currently on the 3rd place with 18 points. Also, they have three consecutive victories. In last game Energetik-BGU is won 2-1 ambitious Dynamo Brest. Also, we have Isloch who's is very average team in this league. They are currently on the 6th place with 15 points. However, Isloch is really better team at home. I think, the hosts will try to capitalize advantage on their pitch. So, I expect, this will be tense match. I think, the hosts will closer to victory.
They began explosively with the sort of goal the fearsome Ferguson used to trademark. Richarlison fed Djibril Sidibe wide and moved into the six-yard box to meet the cross with a bullet close-range header that ignited Goodison after five minutes. Equally fast and effective football almost delivered a second goal for the Brazilian soon after but the striker just failed to get on the end of Theo Walcott's cross.
Winger Anthony Knockaert looked bright and he and Mitrovic forced relatively comfortable saves from home goalkeeper Illan Meslier. The visitors were incensed that they were not awarded a penalty when the ball struck Tyler Roberts on the arm in the area as Leeds were left hanging on for the half-time whistle. It was a different story after the interval, as subs Alioski and Pablo Hernandez both made pivotal impacts to secure a vital three points for Marcelo Bielsa's men.
The game showed the Nerazzurri at their abject worst and brilliant best in the space of 90 minutes, but the high of coming out on top soon evaporated when they fell to a 1-0 defeat to Napoli in Wednesday’s Coppa Italia semi-final first leg at San Siro. Inter were criticised for looking tired and lacking imagination, with Conte facing calls to pick January signing Christian Eriksen from the start rather than using him as a second-half substitute, as he has in three of the former Tottenham midfielder’s four appearances so far.
