Paper Round’s view: Regardless of Ozil’s future, Arsenal are clearly in need of rebuilding in order to make sure they do not lose any ground on the club’s above them. It is not clear that a player who has established themselves in Scotland will prevail, but there are likely still enough coaches in Arsenal who would be confident that Kamara will be able to cope with the rigours of Premier League football.
Al Mojzel only has a 2-1-6 record at home so far this season and with 17 goals conceded, they have the worst defense at home of all the teams in the league. In the last 3 home games they conceded a total of 8 goals. But they also have scored in 8 of the last 11 home games.
They boast the second-best defensive record in the division (conceding only 21 goals in 22 matches) and play the same way no matter the opponent. They've taken a few notable scalps this season and beat Arsenal in the reverse fixture back in October. If they had a more prolific presence in their front line, the Blades would be even higher up the table.
Duel of the first two teams in the second level of the competition from the recent years, where both did not make a good start at the top level. Belshina was expected to have better results and performance, since they were champions in the previous season, but team could not make more than one draw so far.
They are second in the table and host Preston North End who are in fifth place, nine points behind them. United have started to get the kind of jitters that their fans know only too well. One point from their last two league games has seen them drop to second, three points behind West Brom who they travel to in their next fixture.

Enigmatic Colombian striker Faustino Asprilla arrived at St James' Park during a snowstorm, bedecked in a fur coat as he completed the formalities of his £6. Italian side Parma.

Bayern Munich continue their bid to win the domestic double. They are in great form with win after win and lots of goals being scored. That includes five against Frankfurt recently and another win looks likely here. Frankfurt have shown some improvement of late but then lost to Mainz at the weekend.

Video - 'Timing is everything’ – Haaland on transfers03:56 And he didn’t disappoint. First game, hat-trick in just over half an hour, away at Augsburg. Second game, a brace in less than half an hour at home to Koln.
Both teams are high scoring teams close in the league standings both with more than 30 goals scored so far but also more than 30 goals conceded by them this season, so we should really have a good game here as Kaiserslautern with a couple of wins in a row can get close to the top while Bayern II tried to keep on their attacking approach both at home and away from home and despite conceding a lot they also score a lot and are so far safe from relegation zone but would not mind taking all 3 points from this one.

The home side are completely rejuvenated since the departure of Neil Harris. They’ve lost only twice since mid-September, with only one defeat in their last seven games. The Lions are making great strides in the Championship under new boss Gary Rowett, while they’ve built up some excellent form at their own ground – which should leave Forest worried.
Well it is hard to not be better than last season for the hosts who are known for being one of the top clubs in Turkey season after season, still last term they were more of a relegation candidate even though the top quality they had in their squad results were not settling in for them as mainly their defense was the main problem, but this season is a bit better for them seeing them on 6th place with just 5 points less than the league leaders right now.
Guadalupe will against Perez Zeledon in match Costa Rica Premier Division. My prediction this match will the end score that both teams have not the score due to Guadalupe on last 2 match in league only can make score is 1 goal. Meanwhile, Perez Zeledon also have not good result on last 2 match in league that Perez Zeledon have yet the score. Therefore, I think this match that both teams will not to make score. Moreover both teams have same the strength and surely this match not much score as per last match. Beside that Perez Zeledon on last 3 away match have yet to make score. Therefore, this match have more chance that both teams have not the score.

Esteli are not in good form coming into this game with no wins in their last three league fixtures. Just two points earned and no goals in the last two. Only one of their last five away league games have been won and that was at relegation threatened Deportivo Ocotal. Seven away league games have only produced 13 goals.
Well, it seems we will have another surprise in Belarus elite division. This is first round, new season. Visitors are new team in the league, come from second division. They are solid team who can fight and I don't know why bookies give such a big odds for draw and away win. Dinamo Minsk is big name, but that is all what left from this team. Just name. They are for years now in deep shadow behind Bate Borisov and they will stay there for years. Ruh Brest will write new pages of their history and I believe with one point from this game. Draw
One of the scariest moments came in October 2011, a day when it could have ended even before it really got started. Celtic trailed Rangers by 10 points at the top of the league and found themselves 3-0 down at half-time at Rugby Park. That was a pivotal moment," he recalls. It's a bit of a walk down to the tunnel and I was looking at our fans and I said to myself, 'I'm not giving this up just yet'.

Vardy: I often attack coaches who can't improve talented players but I am quite prepared to acknowledge those that can. Brendan Rodgers is, in my view, one of those coaches. The transformation in the performances of Jamie Vardy at Leicester City has been quite extraordinary. The centre-forward is no longer just a finisher. His all-round contribution to his team's performances are almost unrecognisable from the season when they won the title - but it has not affected his goal tally.
Posted at 56' Foul by Scott Brown (Celtic). Posted at 56' Michael Santos (FC København) wins a free kick in the attacking half. West Ham have gone six Premier League games without a win, so the last thing they need is a trip to Anfield on Monday to face runaway leaders Liverpool. Hammers boss David Moyes will try to make it as difficult as possible for Liverpool," said BBC football expert Mark Lawrenson said.
The SPFL has said nothing in reply. Instead of tackling Thistle's conclusions point by point, they allowed Dundee to resubmit a vote that saw Thistle relegated. From a Partick perspective, anger doesn't even come close to covering it. We're now at the end of phase one in this tortured business. Phase two is the exhumation of the reconstruction debate. We're now led to believe by the SPFL and others that there is a growing appetite for the very thing that many Premiership clubs have been dead against for years, that there is a gathering consensus for a 14-team Premiership next season - maybe for just one season - with three other leagues of 10, or some such model.
Gorodeja at this level is the weakest club in the league so far this season with a record of 0-1-5, even 2nd from bottom at the time BATE 2 paid them a visit last round they could not even score a goal against a very fragile defense as they ended up losing the game with 2-0 in the end, this while lately they also lost 3-1 away at a really modest Energetik 2 side, lost 6-0 at home with Dinamo Minsk 2, played away from home at Vitebsk 2 and ended up losing that game with 4-1 and also lost 4-0 away from home at Belshina 2 as well.
These fixtures rarely disappoint, so we advise having a big bag of popcorn at the ready for the drama that will unfold. If you can only pick a certain section of the game to watch, tune in for the finale. We predict that a goal will be scored after 73:59.

England's No. I was disappointed with myself. My studs got caught but I hold my hands up for that. I reset and I never let anything affect me. It shows my character," Pickford said. The goal was a personal milestone for Benteke, who had not scored for 1,476 minutes. This was the hardest moment of my career so far in England," he said.
The visitors have scored in four of their first five trips as an A-League side, while they are averaging over a goal per game this term. The A-League has been a happy hunting ground in the BTTS market this term, landing in 68% of the matches in the league so far. With the hosts second in the scoring charts but with the second-worst defence, we think BTTS is the best way to go here.
Sixth in the table, level on points with fifth-placed Manchester United, Wolves have won three of their last four fixtures. Brighton, meanwhile, must get back into the winning habit if they are to avoid relegation trouble. Yet to win in the Premier League in 2020, Brighton have failed to pick a victory in their last eight matches.

Messi capitalised on Manuel Akanji's defensive blunder, feeding Luis Suarez in the box, the Uruguayan making no mistake from close range. Then Suarez turned provider after Mats Hummels gave the ball away at the back, feeding Messi this time, the Argentine rifling across Roman Burki. Barcelona dominated a shellshocked Dortmund from then on, and Antoine Griezmann - a first-half substitue on for the injured Ousmane Dembele - was on the receiving end of another Messi master pass, finding the back of the net with a well-taken finish for his first goal in five weeks.
West Bromwich Albion will host Birmingham City for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the hosts a strong favorites against this opponent and I expect they to dominate in this match. WBA is one of the best teams in this campaign. Hosts have a great attack. I think, they tend to score a goal. On the other hand Birmingham is very average team in this season. The visitors have less potential. I think, they will pay attention on their defense. In any case, the visitors have a very difficult task. Nevertheless, this can be a draw. My pick - WBA to win.
A win on Thursday would allow them to travel to face Goias at the weekend pressure free and in their current shape, you'd have to fancy them to get it. Indeed, the side have now won 7 of their last 9 matches and are typically excellent at home, securing wins in 4 of their last 5 matches there.
Eintracht Frankfurt are very good at home where their supporters are their backbone, but as the game will be without fans in the stadium, they will find it very hard to stop the visitors who are in good form before the break.
Bristol Rovers will host Ipswich Town for this fixture of the league. Both sides are very average teams in this season. True, Ipswich are more ambitious team in this campaign. However, they have very poor shape lately. They have four consecutive losses. Of course, the visitors will try to break the poor series. I think, this will not be an easy task. On the other hand Bristol Rovers is also not very good team. True, in previous game Bristol Rovers is won 2-0 against ambitious Sunderland. Also, I believe, Bristol Rovers is better team at home. I think, the hosts will closer to victory.

Lawro's prediction: 2-0Tolu's prediction: Bournemouth were back on form on Tuesday night when they beat Brighton, but I am going with Arsenal here of course. Reiss Nelson to score one of them, and Eddie Nketiah too. Tolu on whether Arsenal will win the FA Cup this season? Do I fancy it?! Of course - it's ours. We've got the history with it, having won it a record number of times (13) and the ability to cause any team problems.
PRAGUE, Dec 9 (Reuters) - Slavia coach Jindrich Trpisovsky's coaching career has propelled him from the rough-and-tumble lower echelons of Czech football to Barcelona's hallowed Camp Nou - an unlikely journey that the baseball-cap wearing coach describes as a dream. Trpisovsky roamed the sidelines of the Czech third tier only six years ago but is now operating at the highest level in Europe club football while earning an impressive reputation with his attacking philosophy.
MILAN, Jan 29 (Reuters) - Luxury eyewear group Italia Independent is hoping to borrow some of Cristiano Ronaldo's star appeal.

Fiorentina is heading to Udine, where they manage to have success, even in the seasons when not on the top of the performance. They should be able to keep with the good recent run, and big improvement, that squad made from the first part of the league, and eventually get victory, which should return the team among the Europe league challengers.
Arteta will be hoping they can continue in similar fashion going forward to ensure a positive finish to the campaign. MAN OF THE MATCH Reiss Nelson (Arsenal). David Luiz produced a solid performance alongside debutant Pablo Mori in the centre of defence, but Nelson shone on his first outing for almost two months.

MANCHESTER, England, Dec 29 (Reuters) - Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero believes the 14-point gap between the defending champions and Premier League leaders Liverpool is "too hard" to overturn and says that City need to now concentrate purely on earning a top-four finish. Now, Liverpool is too hard.
Paper Round's view: Thomas Partey has shown his quality on the highest level in Europe so it makes sense why two of England's biggest clubs are sniffing around him. However, Arsenal and Manchester United are looking fairly washed up at the moment. Neither club are competing in the Champions League and Arsenal don't even look likely to qualify for next season's edition of Europe's elite competition.
Brisbane Roar and Melbourne City will face each other in the upcoming match in the A League. Brisbane Roar this season have the following results: 3W, 3D and 5L.
