The hosts used to be winning title after title in this country and play season after season in the AFC Cup competition as well and their performances there were really not that bad. This season they are only 6th at this stage and a lot of points separating them from the top 2 places really, but this should be a fairly easy game as they face a newly promoted club which has lost many games by big numbers this season and even at home lost 1-0 earlier this season to Al Quds.
This study looking for early signs of dementia is a positive step forward for dementia research and the wider football community," Director of Research Carol Routledge said.

Milot Rashica restored the hosts' two-goal cushion three minutes later but another Dortmund teenager, 18-year-old Giovanni Reyna's sensational curled shot into the top corner set up a dramatic finale.
The visitors have had an impressive run in the competition already with their 2-1 win over Ligue 2 side Grenoble being quite the upset. Étoile play in the fourth tier of France so a win of this calibre is quite the achievement but their form in their own division has slightly wavered as of late which could hold them back. They have won just one of their last six league games with their victory over third bottom Marseille Endoume being the only thing for fans to cheer about in recent weeks.
However, Sam Foley really stood out. He moved back to centre half and the captain was rock solid back there on a night when he had to be.

We would like to avoid controversy because it is not the time. But the tone of the statement, which seems overbearing, is obviously not to our liking. It should be remembered, that there are 'other' coaches, instructors, trainers and collaborators employed by football clubs who have merely working incomes, sometimes even below the national average.
Two teams with different ambitions and huge quality and experience gap between them. Espanyol is having a really tough season. They are at the relegation zone and if they don't do something quickly they will be relegated. But still however everything is here at the Real Madrid side. It looks like after a while they will get the title. Barca yesterday again disappointed against Celta Vigo so this is huge chance now for Real Madrid to take that 1st place with plus points. They are showing some very good performances lately and I don't see how can Espanyol at this moment be compared with Real Madrid

Unlike the hosts, who're probably feeling relatively anxious ahead of this make-or-break game, the visitors will be nice and relaxed, safe in the knowledge that they're through no matter what happens in Germany.
Paper Round’s view: Lamptey’s path to the first team currently appears blocked, with the 19-year-old defender behind Reece James and Cesar Azpilicueta in the pecking order. Selling him now would mean that at least some transfer fee is raised rather than losing him for nothing, so Chelsea may be tempted to cut their losses despite Frank Lampard wishing to keep him at Stamford Bridge.
However, the likes of Kazuyuki Toda, at Tottenham, and Ryo Miyaichi, for Arsenal, Bolton and Wigan, made less of an impact with just a smattering of top-flight appearances between them. Liverpool fans will be hoping Minamino can become the third Japanese player to lift the Premier League trophy later this year. And if that does happen then that Liverpool pub in Tokyo may need to open another branch to accommodate all the club's new fans in Japan.
As both teams focus on their respective league objectives, this competition is likely be viewed as secondary by both. The Addicks will prioritise moving away from the drop-zone, while West Brom boss Bilic has stated that he will rest key players after a busy festive schedule. Such circumstances make it tough for punters looking to get involved in this fixture.
A large win is expected for BATE here at home vs Neman Grodno: after a very difficult start in this season, with 2 losses in the first 2 matches of this League, BATE has now found a very good shape, coming from 3 wins and a draw in the last 4 official games and having even conceded no goal in all of those matches. Neman has lost all of the last 7 matches played here and has even scored no goal in 4 out of the last 5, so scoring twice should be enough for the home team to win by more than a goal.
However, it said the events could go ahead without spectators. Before then, the ban had only applied to the three most affected regions of the country. Serie A had initially agreed to play in empty stadiums in those regions, then changed its mind at the last minute last Saturday when it called the games off.
Lyon last played on Tuesday while Rennes have had two less days to rest as they faced Lazio on Thursday. This could be another factor holding back the away side and we feel this won't help their case or their away form. Therefore we're backing Lyon to get the win as they've scored nine goals in their last five games at the Groupama. However, they have just one clean sheet in this time and with Rennes scoring consistently in recent weeks we expect this to be a close one. Nevertheless, with Lyon's home form and extra rest we're backing them to win 2-1.
The pressure is on both clubs in this game. Chelsea need to get back into winning ways and protect the five point lead they have over fifth place. Arsenal have to start getting wins under their new manager and somehow close the gap on the top four. A bet on both teams scoring looks the best one to make for this game.
After three wonderful years in Manchester, I have taken the difficult decision to leave at the end of this season and accept an offer from Wolfsburg for a new challenge in my career. I believe the time is now right for the next chapter in my football journey and I am looking forward to the challenge of playing in the German Bundesliga.

Midfielder Ramsey fired home the first goal from close range soon after the break and was also involved in the second.

City dispatched United last night with 3-1 even on Old Trafford and so is awaiting their opponent coming from this encounter in the final that is going to be played at Wembley. And at first sight the opponent they will face is an obvious one, nobody really believes that Aston Villa missing also some key players like first choice keeper Heaton or top striker Wesley after losing 4-1 at home to same Leicester side in the league some weeks ago can come here at Leicester and win the game.
Arsenal start to play much better football since Arteta arrived in club. They won against Everton 3-2 last round and show really good performance. They won in Athens 0-1 and I think they already finish a job. But I doubt they will calculate. Arsenal is better team than visitors and they will try to win big if they can. Also no reason for some big rotation and I expect the best 11 at this moment. So I am sure they can cover this handicap. Emirate stadium is sold out and one big win will be just fine. Arsenal to cover - 1.5 handicap!
