The fact they shook off a poor start when the Premier League resumed to earn 10 points from 12 in their previous four matches was a testament to their durability and craft. But after three wins over teams above them, they found Leicester a more difficult task. Although they made a good start where David McGoldrick fired over from George Baldock's cross, they were second best for much of the first half, as Leicester's players, set up in a 3-4-3 formation continually asked questions of the Blades' resolute defence.
If you’re in this position you can’t guarantee you’ll be in the Premier League next season, so that makes it a bit more difficult. I’m not tempted to do too much business, but we won’t fall asleep. We’ll stay awake to strengthen the team but not out of panic buying. It has to make sense for the future of the club.
Sessegnon got his first start in Wednesday’s dead rubber against Bayern Munich, and though Spurs lost, he picked up his first Spurs goal. Like this: Now, The Warm-Up don’t know what footballers dream about when they make their big moves, or in the long days and dark nights as they recover from injury.
Vitesse have scored 14 goals at home this season while VVV have only scored 6 times on the road, and the hosts have kept clean sheets in 25% of their home games while VVV are yet to keep a clean sheet on the road this season. VVV have failed to score in 38% of their away games and have lost-t0-nil in 38% of their away games as well, and we can see that trend continuing on Sunday.
The visitors fought back again as Pascal Gross prodded home before the video assistant referee (VAR) awarded Glenn Murray's dramatic late leveller despite the striker initially appearing to handle the ball in the process. Brighton's comeback keeps them 15th in the table but West Ham slip into the relegation zone to 18th after out-of-form Bournemouth beat Aston Villa.
Minnesota made it to this stage after finishing second in Group D. They progressed unbeaten by defeating Sporting Kansas City and drawing with both Real Salt Lake and Colorado Rapids. Columbus Crew didn't make much of a mark on the Eastern Conference last year, finishing tenth, the lowest placing in their history.

The whole world has changed, so playing some games of football without supporters there is not really that big an issue. Premier League clubs are not being greedy with this, they are just trying to stay alive. Ruud Gullit: The people need it. People would rather see it on TV without any crowds than see nothing at all. And looking at the bigger picture, you don't want to see a Premier League downsized by clubs that have gone bust - because it will be a long time before there are any crowds.
I hate to tip my own side to be beaten, but I am not expecting any surprises there. We are at Deepdale for Focus earlier on Saturday but, speaking as a Preston fan, this tie has come at a bad time for us. We looked exhausted against Middlesbrough. Like Norwich, Bournemouth badly need a win and they should get it against Luton, who are bottom of the Championship and cannot stop shipping goals - they have conceded 56 in 26 league games this season, so more than two a game.

It was Klopp's 100th Premier League victory - he is the second-fastest manager to reach a century in the competition - and it extends the Reds' run of 32 matches without defeat, their longest such run in top-flight history. Liverpool, who lost only one Premier League game since the start of last season, were not even at full tilt or full strength and yet eventually overwhelmed their struggling Merseyside neighbours.
Fresh from their tremendous 0-1 triumph over Ajax which secured their passage to the Last 16 of the Champions League, Valencia were by far the better side in last weekend's feature game, and looked to have won it after Carlos Soler broke the deadlock 12 minutes from time.

We've had all sorts of rumour and innuendo, vague allegations but nothing specific. It's not even a question of evidence. We don't even know what the charges are.

Callum McGregor says Celtic will be "defending the badge" and are determined to extend their winning run to 13 games no matter who faces Cluj. While Cluj need a point to progress to the Europa League last 32, Celtic have already qualified as Group E winners. And manager Neil Lennon has promised to give some players a rest for the trip to Romania after winning Sunday's League Cup final against Rangers.
Inverness will be meeting with the away team queen of South and this game we have given the home team to win it as looking at the last games that the home team have played both home and away games we can say that they are strong enough to win this game
Melbourne Victory have fallen well below expectations this season, winning just three games this season and finding themselves outside of the playoff places. They seem to have found a little bit of form in recent weeks though, wining two of their last four and separating themselves from the teams at the bottom of the table. They’ve still got some work to do to get into the top six though but they know they have the talent within their ranks to get into the finals series once again.
Dijon may have beaten PSG 2-1 in their penultimate match before the international break but they resumed their 'laughingstock' status the following week as they lost 1-0 away to Monaco. It was their third defeat in four matches in all competitions with six goals conceded in that time and they now sit third bottom in Ligue 1.
They have lost five matches in the last eight and have no clean sheet in the last nine matches. Eintracht Frankfurt have however managed to score in 13 of their last 15 matches. They go to this game on the back of a 2-0 loss at home to Wolfsburg but that is their only loss at home in six matches. They have three wins in their last six home matches and scored two or more goals in five of the six home games, though they have just one clean sheet in the six.
He is a really top striker at this level and we have done some little adjustments which have helped him. His stats bear out this portrait of a new, more efficient Vardy. He is having fewer touches per 90 minutes than in any of his previous Premier League seasons - 21. But a higher percentage of those are in the opposition penalty area - and are shots - than in any of his previous five Premier League campaigns.
About 10,000 people were able to join. Verdict: Seems to make sense, no? Why not?There are some drawbacks, though. Firstly, will you just spend the whole 90 minutes scrutinising your own appearance, like we definitely don't do during our morning editorial meeting?Also, Zoom fatigue is a real thing. A lot of us use these video conferences for work now - do we really want that encroaching into the footie?Socially distanced seatingIf all else fails, why not actually just put people in stadiums, but limit the amount of fans that are allowed to enter and make them sit apart?This is what happened at the Hungarian Cup final on Wednesday.
Little wonder, then, that the former Arsenal and Chelsea left-back is in the Match of Their Day hot seat on what would have been FA Cup final weekend. The 39-year-old won the FA Cup seven times - three with the Gunners and four with the Blues - and played in a total of eight finals. Watch the latest Match of Their Day with Ashley ColeCole has picked his first and last FA Cup wins, when Arsenal beat Chelsea 2-0 in 2002 and Chelsea triumphed 2-1 against Liverpool in 2012.

This led to the formation of Soccer United Marketing (SUM), the commercial arm of MLS whose owners are the league's club owners. The company's focus is to raise the commercial value of soccer in North America and grow the fan base for the sport. So when no U. S. English-language rights for the 2002 and 2006 World Cups -- something MLS owners felt would have set the sport back for a generation in the U.
Five others scored in their milestone match - Sol Campbell, Teddy Sheringham, Robbie Keane, Jermain Defoe and Christian Eriksen. The goal was also Kane's ninth against West Ham, meaning he is the fourth player to score at least 30 Premier League goals in London derbies (Thierry Henry, Teddy Sheringham and Frank Lampard complete the list). And if Kane does reach 200 goals, he would become just the third player in Premier League history to do so, following in the footsteps of Alan Shearer (260) and Wayne Rooney (208).
Two teams are members of elite level in Vietnam. Usually playing games with lots of goals. That is a reason why I think today will be different situation. After big pause of training and games, players will be in hard situation to come back in form and to score goals. In the league when these two played, home team won in 5 from last 6 games and just one game finished with 1-1 result. All other games went to over 2.5 goals. Still, for me under 3.5 goals look like good bet in this game. So let's see what will happen.
The club have confirmed that if there is a "significant improvement" in Torreira's condition over the next 24 hours the Uruguayan midfielder could travel to join the rest of the squad. The tie with Olympiakos will be Arteta's first taste of European football as Gunners boss since succeeding fellow Spaniard Unai Emery at the Emirates in December. Arsenal, who are 10th in the Premier League and seven points off fourth place, reached this season's knockout stages with a record of three wins, two draws, plus an away defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt, a result which saw Emery sacked after 18 months in charge.
They are at home and this is such a tricky time for Watford to keep their heads above water at the bottom of the table. The good thing for the Hornets is that they will be buoyed by their late equaliser against Leicester. Lawro's prediction: 2-1Aitch's prediction: 1-0 Southampton v Arsenal (18:00 BST)I didn't realise how few games Arsenal have won in the Premier League this season - only nine so far, fewer than all the teams around them in the table, including Southampton in 14th, who have 11 wins.
Wednesday's win over Real Madrid was a landmark night in the Champions League for Manchester City and the way they won at the Bernabeu was memorable too. City were under added pressure going into the tie because of their European ban, then all the talk before kick-off was about Pep Guardiola's team selection when he left Sergio Aguero out. Pep's plan worked to perfection, though, and it was brilliant to watch.
