Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has urged his side to get "the job done" against Shakhtar Donetsk to secure qualification for the last 16 of the Champions League. City are top of Group C and will qualify with a game to spare if they draw at Etihad Stadium on Tuesday. The position we have is good. We have 10 points but we are not qualified," said Guardiola. I know Shakhtar and Dinamo Zagreb can win both games and we will be out.
Dynamo need win in this game, in order to catch up with the play for the Europe, while Shakhtar is practically already a champion in the competition. Host will have relaxed duel, since they are starting the season, and may not play in the full lineup here.
Forest have lost only one clash with sides in the bottom half this season, while they’ve won each of their home clashes with those teams.

Jurgen Klopp made nine changes to the side that secured a 13-point lead at the top of the Premier League with a win over Sheffield United last time out, and it showed as the visitors carved out the better opportunities early on.

FAVRE PRESSURE Borussia Dortmund coach Lucien Favre's position seems far from secure after they had to come back from three goals down to draw 3-3 with promoted Paderborn, with club boss Hans-Joachim Watzke emphasizing football is a results-based business. Lucien you continue to have our trust," said Watzke, addressing the coach in a club members' meeting.
Benzema works harder than he is given credit for, on and off the pitch. You don't reach his levels of consistency without incredible fitness and without living your life right off the pitch. France exile now seems permanentDespite his record at club level putting him among Europe's elite, he remains conspicuous by his absence from the France squad. Benzema has netted more league goals than compatriots Antoine Griezmann and Alexandre Lacazette, as well as Olivier Giroud, who played all seven games at the 2018 World Cup but failed to score.
Gian Piero Gasperini's Serie A side raced into a two-goal lead by halftime with goals from Hans Hateboer and Josip Ilicic, while Valencia were denied by the post. Remo Freuler's curling strike and a second goal for Hateboer looked to have ended the tie as a contest, but substitute Denis Cheryshev gave the Spanish visitors a faint glimmer of hope with an away goal.

Is Jose Mourinho the man to turn around his fortunes? Perhaps, perhaps not. City’s new defender? Manchester City could seek January reinforcement in the shape of defender Milan Skriniar, the Mirror reports. City find themselves 14 points behind Liverpool in the Premier League, with Aymeric Laporte’s injury a huge blow to the defending champions.
Backing against Liverpool this season hasn't been a very rewarding betting tactic this season. Their game against Wolves could be another easy victory for them. But there are moments in games when they seem vulnerable; as if their energy is waning. With so many games under their belts this season, there's a lot of miles on Liverpool's clock. A breakdown is inevitable. We think that this could be the match that reminds us that Liverpool players are human after all. Back Wolves double chance.
When everybody is safe and we're not using up NHS and police resources, the government would like us to get back to playing because we are entertainment and a sign that the country is coming back to normal. If people are home for another month and Premier League football is on the TV every day that can only be a good thing. Not because we are more essential than the NHS but because we can give people entertainment and show that we're fighting back.

Two teams from top of the table and bottom of the table will meet each other. Their form is also opposite. Intercity are sitting on the 2nd spot with 43 points while the visitors are sitting on the 16th spot with 23 Points. There have been over 2.5 goals scored in Intercity's last 6 matches and they have won 4 of those matches. Also there have been over 2.5 goals in 3 of villamarxant's last 5 matches. This will be a high scoring contest and I expect goals at the both ends. My tip is on over 2.5 goals to be scored.
It looked as if it was 2-0 when Antonio controlled the ball, blocked Bednarek's clearance and blasted in. But VAR discovered that Antonio had used his hand in the initial bit of control. West Ham players and fans were furious but this season's handball laws mean that you cannot use your hand and then score even if it was accidental.
Much of their success on home soil has come courtesy of their ability to keep the opposition at bay as they have conceded just eight times and with just one side managing to escape with the points so far, they have every reason to be satisfied with the arrangement. That’s not to say they are running away with things, however, as all but one of their wins have come courtesy of a single goal lead.
Mourinho needs to ditch the defeatist stuff and get Spurs back on track because only six days earlier spirits were soaring after victory as Aston Villa.

Gunners short in defence?Arsenal have been linked with Manchester City defender John Stones and AC Milan midfielder Franck Kessie but Arteta denied they have any interest. John is a player that I really like and I followed," said the former City assistant coach. We signed him when I was at Manchester City and I worked with him for many years and know him well. When I look at centre-backs he has many attributes that I like from one, but we're not interested.
Players' names will be replaced on the back of their shirts with 'Black Lives Matter' for the first 12 matches of the restarted season, as part of the league's response to the anti-racism protests seen globally since the death of George Floyd. Masters backed the statements, with the Premier League supporting any player who chooses to 'take a knee' before or during matches. I don't see the statements that are being made as overtly political statements," Masters said.
In terms of a correct score tip, we think the final result should have a pretty comfortable look to it. The Grecians average 1.67 goals per game at home this season and given that they have kept a clean sheet in 58% of their home matches, a shut out may be on the cards. Meanwhile, the visitors have scored just once in their last four away matches and have failed to score in 54% of all away matches this season, so backing a 2-0 home win appears to be the way to go.

MAN OF THE MATCH - Sergio Postigo (Levante) Morales’ face will be the one on the front pages of the Spanish sports dailies tomorrow, and with good reason. However, Sergio Postigo was just as central to Levante’s win.

Les Merlus go into this game in fantastic form with seven wins in their last eight games in all competitions. Five of these victories in the league have seen them creep up to second in Ligue 2 and a victory here would show the top division that they're of a good enough quality to compete with the best teams in France. They've scored 18 goals in this time and are currently drawn with leaders Lens for second highest scorers in the league. Lorient have also conceded six goals in this time but three of these did come in their last match which ended 3-0 to Valenciennes; Lorient had to play over 50 minutes with ten men.

He told BBC Sport: "Nobody is celebrating anything yet but with what I have been through in the past few years with that team, I think I deserve to enjoy myself at the moment.

"It has been 30 years since we last won it, and I would happily have had it totally wrapped up by Christmas if I could have done.

Everton are not playing well at the moment. The home team has only 36 points and 11th place in the rankings. In the last 5 matches, they won 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. With their current performance, they had to set their sights high on this battle. Home advantage is what they need to promote.
Barca, for example, had reached the semi-finals for the last nine seasons and monopolised the trophy between 2015 and 2018. There were occasional upsets, like Real's 2009 exit to Alcorcon, the season after losing to Real Union, but these proved increasingly rare. Ties are now settled in one match, leading to dramatic scenes such as third-tier Cultural Leonesa knocking out 10-times winners Atletico and Mirandes dumping out Celta Vigo, Sevilla and Villarreal.
It's a quandary. They would have a case, as far as I can see, to take this course of action and argue it with Uefa. I suspect that they may be more comfortable doing it with Uefa's acquiescence.

On Friday, Uefa lifted a ban on showing games at 15:00 on a Saturday live on TV in England and Scotland in what is seen as moves towards restarting some domestic competitions in the UK without supporters.
