Oxford's winning run was ended by Doncaster on New Year's Day, but under the astute management of Karl Robinson, the U's remain a side on the up. They're now 4th in the league and it's fair to say that promotion is certainly within their grasp.
Given that they have the fourth worst away record in the league, albeit having played away a lot less than some others, with just six points from their six away matches, their hopes of three points will not exactly be overwhelming. Rovers’ sole win on the road in the league this season came against a Southend United side who have been in awful form this campaign and look like near certainties to be one of the sides dropping a division come the end of the season.
Did you know? The Swedish defender made a team-high four blocks in Manchester United's win at the Etihad. Midfielders - George Baldock (Sheffield United), Jordan Henderson (Liverpool), James Maddison (Leicester City), Son Heung-min (Tottenham) George Baldock: I wasn't sure if it was George Baldock or George Best! I thought I was seeing things when I saw Baldock drag the ball back, pirouette and strike a glorious shot past Tim Krul.
His appeal stretched far and wide, however, when he scored twice in a 2-1 win over England at Wembley in 1963. An expected big move south of the border did not immediately follow, with many suspecting his fondness for the pub was behind the reluctance of some English clubs to recruit the player known as "Slim Jim".

Even away from home, Rangers, who've scored an impressive 17 goals in seven travelling matches, have made light work of getting the job done. We're in December and Gerrard's title-challengers are still unbeaten away from home. Every other team in the division has tasted defeat at least once on the road.
The United Kingdom now has 19 confirmed cases of coronavirus and Bruce said the club were not taking any chances. There's a ritual here that everybody shakes hands with everybody as soon as we see each other every morning.

Sadly, the subject of players being subjected to racist abuse will once again top the agenda, casting a cloud over Chelsea's deserved celebrations at the final whistle. Rudiger appeared to be the target after he was floored by Son's raised boot which earned the South Korea international a deserved red card just after the hour. Tottenham fans reacted angrily to Rudiger, who they felt over-reacted, even though he was clearly fouled.
West Ham took the lead just the break when Aaron Cresswell cut inside and curled home and Chelsea had no answer. Had Chelsea won they could have gone into second but they stay fourth, and Jose Mourinho's Tottenham Hotspur are now just six points behind. For West Ham this is a huge win for their manager Manuel Pellegrini and they now move up to 13th.

Neymar was sent off late on as Paris St-Germain came from behind to get back to winning ways against Bordeaux. The Ligue 1 leaders drew 4-4 at Amiens last week before losing 2-1 at Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League and fell behind to a Hwang Ui-jo opener. Edinson Cavani replied and Marquinhos' first goal was swiftly cancelled out by Pablo in first half stoppage time. But Marquinhos and Kylian Mbappe then scored in quick succession before Ruben Pardo's late reply gave Bordeaux hope.
As you might expect, we’re leaning towards a rather high scoring match here. Arsenal have shipped an average of 1.5 goals per game at home this season, with Manchester City netting 2.75 goals per away game. The visitors have scored three or more goals in half of their away matches and have scored exactly three in three of their last five meetings with Arsenal. Guardiola’s side have conceded 1.37 goals per game away from home too, so a 3-1 correct score prediction looks a tasty option.
After investing heavily in the close-season to secure the likes of Nicolas Pepe, Kieran Tierney, David Luiz and Gabriel Martinelli, British media reported Arsenal are working with a modest transfer budget this month. Transfer window LIVE - United rule out move for Eriksen Premier League done deals: All the January transfer window ins and outs " "I'm not expecting big things.
The Manchester United striker is suffering from a stress fracture of the back, his manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer confirmed on Sunday. He’ll be out for a while," Solskjaer said at the weekend. He won’t be back until after the mid-season break. Normally six weeks to heal, but I’m not a doctor, and then he needs rehab after that probably.
I think there's got to be a short-term goal for us just now to get the wins to get us away from the wrong end of the league and what we're going to do over the next six months, then what we're going to do over the next period as well. The start is really focusing on the immediate games. Stuart Pearce and Alan Irvine, who were Moyes' assistants in his previous stint, are again likely to join his coaching staff.
Today we welcome a player who has just turned 18 but has already won the Copa Libertadores with Flamengo, one of the biggest clubs in the world. Real are also in the process of renovating their Bernabeu stadium. As we aim to build the best stadium of the 21st Century, we are obliged to develop the talent of the future," added Perez. It's not easy to find unquestionable talent that can make you form part of Real Madrid's legend.
Of course, because of the way it came out, there was little point - I wasn't going to say anything that hadn't already been said. Smalling, capped 31 times for England, has made 28 appearances since joining Roma - who are fifth in Serie A - on a season-long loan in August. Having been "surprised" by Southgate's initial comments, Smalling said last month that his "ambition is always there with England".
A key component of two Double-winning sides, the Republic of Ireland international was thrust into the role of captain after Eric Cantona's sudden retirement in 1997 and was instrumental in United's Treble-winning season in 1998-99. Keane was feared and respected by team-mates and opponents alike and his range of skills and qualities ensured he was regarded as a world-class midfielder and as one of United's greatest captains.
Zacatecas have played good in their last match and won against chiapas away from home by 1 - 0 goals. In contrast, Venados have lost their last match against pachuca by 3-1 goals and they need to come back by playing good here in this match. Venados have won only once in their last 5 away matches and they will be very much motivated here to secure a positive result to stay in the league. They have managed only 3 points so far this season. In their last 10 h2h matches, the hosts have not lost any. I am going for visitors to get at least one point here.
Guangzhou is on first place on league and have 7 wins, 1 draw and 1 lost games with goal different 35:10.

Even if they play, it's not the best of preparations for a test match. Jofra Archer and Stuart Broad have also had health problems but are expected to play in what could be an all-seam attack. That's likely to include James Anderson who would be playing his 150th test match, though he isn't as effective in away tests as he is at home.
Tondela lost 1-0 away at newly-promoted Pacos Ferreira last time out and will be looking for a response from their players on Sunday when they play host to Belenenses. The visitors sit four points and seven places behind their hosts and were knocked out of the Taca de Portugal last weekend by Chaves 1-0, so confidence is bound to be low.

The hosts haven’t just forced themselves into Italy’s top level in recent months. The Sardinians are putting together a home run which is the envy of most of the continent. Cagliari have earned 13 points in their last five home games in the top-flight: only four sides have done better in their five most recent home encounters in the top-5 European Leagues (15 points for Leicester, Juventus, Barcelona and Liverpool).
Another interesting match for today from Turkey cup and new duel where I will just bet on goals, what is for me very real. So, home team is in this moment better team, and that is clear, but problem can be their motive and that is reason why I will bet on goals here. They are playing great in Super league in Turkey this season and I think that they will not have too many motives to win this duel. They need all power in league, and not in cup, if they want title. Over 2,75 is very very good option.
That's quite time-consuming because you are contacting agents, catching up with the individual players that are out of contract that you may want to bring in and catching up with the club to make sure they are in the loop with our recruitment strategy.

Arsenal's winless run continued with Freddie Ljungberg's first Premier League game as boss ending in a draw against struggling Norwich. The Gunners, with Ljungberg at the helm on an interim basis after Unai Emery was sacked on Friday, have not won for eight games. The result leaves Arsenal eighth in the Premier League, seven points off a place in the top four, while Norwich remain 19th, three points from safety.
Sheffield United are the best placed side among the promoted teams; being seventh after 14 matches is a big show of their capabilities. They have not lost in their last seven matches, though five have ended in draws. They have a good run at home and go to this game unbeaten in three there. They have scored seven in the last three home matches and with the third best defence in the league we feel they hold the favorites’ tag. Newcastle had a good fight to draw Manchester City in their last game but they have not shown much challenge, especially among the smaller teams. They have no clean sheet in the last six and have lost five of the last seven away matches. With Sheffield’s impressive home form, and factoring in Newcastle’s away form, we will go with a win for Sheffield United.
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola fears the injury Sergio Aguero suffered in their 2-1 win over Chelsea is a "bad" muscle problem. Argentina striker Aguero, 31, hobbled off after 77 minutes and was replaced by Brazil forward Gabriel Jesus. Sergio will be bad, I think. Tomorrow we will know it. The feeling is it's muscular," said Guardiola. Midfielders Rodri and David Silva were also substituted but the City boss said that was just "cramps and tiredness".

He also told the Daily Mirror that top-flight sides like Manchester City should help out EFL clubs by providing loans that could be paid back over the next five to 10 years. I’m disappointed that something like that has not happened but there are talks between the Premier League, EFL and PFA so I hope something can be sorted - but it should be,” he said.
They have done just enough to keep their noses in front in the race for Champions League football; however they will likely need to achieve greater consistency to maintain their position as we move deeper into the campaign, after posting eight wins, three draws and five defeats from their 16 matches.
