Tables have turned between these two sides no longer is Middlesbrough favorite in such encounters and they really should be priced much higher for the win here as despite having 2 wins in a row at home right now away from home in 9 league games they got just 4 draws and lost 5 times the latest loss being at another promotion candidate Leeds losing the game with 4-0 in the end and they were also not much better away at QPR where with a lot of luck as away from home their game is indeed based on luck they drew 2-2.
Hull won when these two met here earlier in 2019, which was their fifth straight home win over the Blues. Meanwhile, the visitors have won just twice in 11 clashes with the Tigers. Hull have scored twice in each of their last five home meetings with Birmingham, while the Blues are looking weak on the road. As a result, we’re backing a Hull victory along with a 2-0 home win as our correct score pick.
Wolves and Liverpool are the only two clubs to have scored in all of their Premier League home matches this campaign. They have scored a Premier League-high 20% of their 35 goals from outside the penalty area this season. Leicester CityA win on Friday would give Leicester 52 points, equalling their final tally for last season. Leicester have dropped eight points from winning positions in their last four league games - in contrast to six points lost in their previous 59 matches from the start of the 2018-19 campaign.
Manchester United can't afford many more mistakes if they want a top four finish. They have had some good results against City this season but just seem to struggle when playing them at Old Trafford. Manchester City have won their last five games and are building up for a big finish to the season with more silverware likely to be won. A repeat of the staggering performance they put in at Old Trafford in the EFL Cup would suffice here. Go for a City away win.
Leipzig have scored two or more goals in nine of the last 15 matches. Schalke are unbeaten in 10 league games at home. Leipzig have registered three straight clean sheets. Schalke are winless in four Bundesliga matches. Lepzig have scored two or more goals in nine of their last 15 matches. Leipzig will resume Bundesliga action with an away game against Schalke 04 after taking a first leg lead against Tottenham Hotspur in the UEFA Champions League.
However, that could present significant logistical issues, with some flights between Britain and China cancelled. United are also rumoured to have considered a move for two other forwards with Premier League experience - ex-Watford player Odion Ighalo, now with Chinese side Shanghai Shenhua, and Islami Slimani, the Leicester player on loan at Monaco.

It was always going to take time for Simeone to make what he had last time with these players. Maybe he is finished and maybe too old school to succeed now. I would love to have seen this game three years ago. No, no way this Atletico side can trouble Liverpool. Wednesday 19 FebruaryAtalanta v ValenciaDebutants Atalanta progressed after coming second in Group C behind Manchester City, despite losing their opening three games, while Spanish side Valencia came top of a tight Group H ahead of second-placed Chelsea.
Writing in the Telegraph newspaper, Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden said the stand-off between the PFA and the Premier League on wage cuts was "deeply concerning, especially at a time when more clubs have announced they are furloughing many of their lowest paid staff.

Swansea is not in good shape and that is why this Odd is so high but still I think they are heavy favorites to win this game cause they are so much better than Wigan and Wigan is in relegation zone with just 23 points and Swansea is one position away from the play off so I think they are not going to blew this opportunity at home versus one of the worst teams in the league overall and also on the road,Swansea beat win away 1 2 in first part of the season and they should beat them again for sure today

Barca boss Quique Setien is uneager to part with the former Lyon man but would bow to the club's hierarchy. Samuel Umtiti of FC BarcelonaGetty Images Paper Round's view: After a great start to his Barca career, it is clear that Umtiti has fallen away and is some way behind Clement Lenglet and Gerard Pique in the pecking order.
Juventus have won 14 and lost one of their last 23 UEFA Champions League group game on home soil (D8). The Old Lady are looking to win four consecutive home group games for the first time since October 2008. Their form this season has also been brilliant, with 12 wins in their last 13 matches. Having scored twice in all four group games this term, they look good for a result.
Pittsburgh Pirates Feb 26, 2024 — As with most MLB teams, Pittsburgh Pirates are a bit complicated to watch on TV. But don't worry. We show how to stream every game!
Well Leeds should be able to win in this one but I do t think it is going to be easy for them to score a goal at all cause on the other side Sheffield Wednesday has one of the best defenses in the league and also Leeds at home games are rarely scoring more than two goals, for me Leeds to win and to keep clean sheet is too bet for too his one but since I can't bet on that I decide to go just with Under but surely my predictions for this match are 1 0 or 2 0 for Leeds
This is one of the most balanced matches, in the 1/8 finals of the Europa league. Olympiacos already showed great performance vs Arsenal and Tottenham so they will be full of confidence vs Wolverhampton. However in my opinion, this season, Wolverhampton is better team than Arsenal and Tottenham, so they have big chance to quality into the next stage. My bet is very risky and difficult however I think Wolverhampton is capable of winning this match. The match will be played without spectators, so home team do not have any advantage. My bet for this match is Wolverhampton DNB. Good luck.

Norwich lost 3-0 at home to Southampton then Everton. Their hopes of staying up have been dented badly and they will be hoping to get some reprieve in the FA Cup. This will be the third Premier League opponent in the FA Cup for Norwich after eliminating Burnley and Tottenham in the last two rounds. Notably, it will be the first time in the FA Cup this season, that they are playing at home and having had a poor home run, they will be keen to make use of this chance.
We'll play on the same pitch," Mellon said. What if it's windy? What if it's hailstones? Good players can adapt and adjust to anything, that's what you expect of them. Chelsea Women manager Emma Hayes apologised to Liverpool Women in December for calling the Prenton Park surface "a stain on their football club" after a 1-1 Women's Super League draw at Prenton Park. Tranmere's third-round replay with Watford was initially postponed because of a waterlogged pitch; when it went ahead on Thursday, the surface included a number of bald patches, with both wings heavily sanded.
Huddersfield Town's 43 league games unbeaten between December 2010 and November 2011 - the second best run in English history - was ultimately fruitless. They started and finished the run third in League One, with their 3-0 play-off final defeat by Peterborough United in the middle not counted as a league game.
Lokomotiv Gomel will against Sputnik in match Belarusia Pershaya Liga. My prediction this match could be the win for Lokomotiv Gomel with margin score is 2 goals. Lokomotiv Gomel have great result on last 4 match due to Lokomotiv Gomel have won in 3 match and 1 match is draw. Meanwhile, Sputnik also have good result on last 4 match due to Sputnik have won in 3 match and 1 match is lose. Nevertheless, I think that Lokomotiv Gomel can beat Sputnik due to Lokomotiv Gomel more strong in every home match. Beside that Lokomotiv Gomel have yet lose on last 3 home match. Surely Lokomotiv Gomel have more chance to win on this match.
Much of les Monegasques’ dismay has come on the road so far though with four of their last five defeats all coming away from the Stade Louis II. While their defensive mishaps have followed them around like a cloud at their home stadium, their attacking play has been a joy to watch and crucial in their success.
It would be an interesting move if Haaland decided to go to Leipzig as he has already worked his way to the top of Europe's elites' transfer wishlists. It would relieve the pressure on the forward, who is still a teenager, but admittedly it would be very difficult for him to turn down the chance to play at some of the club interested in him, such as Bayern Munich and Manchester United.
After a wide open start to the game, Jack Grealish fired Villa ahead in the 11th minute, cutting in from the left and then expertly curling the ball into the far, top corner. Villa substitute Trezeguet had the ball in the net in the 29th minute but his effort was ruled out for offside and three minutes before the break United got a barely deserved equaliser.
Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers had signed a contract extension committing him to the club until 2025. The former Liverpool manager, 46, dismissed speculation earlier this week linking him with the vacant Arsenal job following Unai Emery's sacking. Rodgers had signed a deal until 2022 when he joined the Foxes from Celtic in February. Leicester have won 17 of their 26 Premier League matches under him and are second in the table.
Greuther Furth have been in decent form after the winter break with a 3-3-2 record in 8 matches and at home they have won 7 of the 13 matches so far this season. And in the last 6 home games they have scored a total of 13 goals.
Rangers are currently undefeated on their travels and they have only dropped points on two occasions. However, those couple of games were in their last five outings.

Solskjaer needed this result and deservedly celebrated at the final whistle. We are three points behind Chelsea now and that was a massive win," he said. We could not have realistically clawed back nine points. This gives us a chance [of qualifying for the Champions League]. As for Chelsea, manager Frank Lampard is facing the toughest test of a managerial reign still in its infancy. Lampard said the result was 'typical' of Chelsea's home games this season when up against a team playing five at the backChelsea's spark, for now, has gone and for all their pretty patterns they are very much a blunt instrument in front of goal.
None of the jobs that I've taken were a reality in my mind until about 48 hours before they happened. I love the job I'm doing, we have an exciting team which continues to improve. At every team you work with, there maybe comes a moment when the fans or the players have had enough of you and that's probably the time to go. I don't sense that at the moment. For me, in the next month we are going to the draw for the Euros and to do some planning for Qatar and that would be my focus.
Osnabruck have got an impressive defensive record to go along with their poor goalscoring record, of late. They have conceded 13 goals in the Bundesliga 2 this season. This gives them the Bundesliga 2's joint best defensive record, along with their opponents, Hamburg.
But twice Champions League winner Mourinho acted decisively, sacrificing Dier's defensive shield, and sent on Danish playmaker Christian Eriksen who, just as on Saturday in Mourinho's debut win over West Ham United, had been left on the bench. It took a while for the tactical switch to work but Dele Alli levelled on the stroke of halftime and the second half saw Tottenham run riot with Harry Kane scoring twice either side of a thumping effort by Serge Aurier.
He was ridiculed by some when, in his most recent autobiography, he said one of the main reasons United lost the 2009 Champions League final defeat to Barcelona was because they picked a poor hotel. Yet 18 years earlier, when they beat Barcelona 2-1 in the Cup Winners’ Cup final, he said the quality of their Rotterdam hotel was a major factor in their victory.
Top players already have at least six must-play events each season -- the Masters, PGA Championship, U. S. Open, British Open, Players Championship and either the Ryder or Presidents Cup. It is difficult to see how they could add 18 PGL tournaments and still find time to play even a limited schedule on the PGA Tour or European Tour.
The difference he has made to this Manchester United team is unbelievable. I think Manchester United need another centre forward but that midfield is exciting. Fernandes is fantastic and I was gutted he went off. Fernandes has scored 20 goals for club and country this seasonIn the 12 games in which he has featured in all competitions, United have won eight and drawn four, scored 28 goals and conceded just four.
We know our supporters are disappointed. My wish is, tomorrow, every supporter helps the team and helps the players. Our confidence depends a lot on how we can feel in our stadium with our supporters. Teams are coming here playing fearlessly, we need to be strong and together. Emery said midfielder Granit Xhaka could return to the squad for the first time since his vocal outburst in October during a 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace when he swore at home fans on being substituted and was later stripped of the captain's armband.
Scored goals wherever he went and managed in Italy too - albeit only for six games. Jadon SanchoOverseas clubs played for: Borussia DortmundMajor honours won overseas: NoneWhy him? It's early days but Jadon Sancho is also a bit of a pioneer. One of the first young English players to look at a move abroad instead of sitting in Manchester City's academy, the Bundesliga gamble has certainly paid off. Still only 19, Sancho has become a regular for England and with 22 goals in 61 league games for Dortmund he is one of the hottest properties in world football at the moment.
Even though they face Olympiakos in the Europa League last-16 in the next two weeks, their next four Premier League games are against relegation-threatened Brighton (H), West Ham (A), Bournemouth (H) and Aston Villa (A). While those four sides are fighting for their lives at the bottom, Wolves are only three points off a Champions League spot meaning Nuno's side still have plenty to fight for. Who should you be looking to bring in? Well, if you want a striker Diogo Jota is in red hot form after scoring six goals in his last four games in all competitions.
Indeed, Wolfsburg haven't been playing very well of late and come into the game having lost their last 2 matches, as well as having failed to have secured victory in front of the home crowd in 6 straight matches. On paper, the Germans should be performing at a stronger level and will be hoping to use Thursday's game as springboard towards turning things around.
