None of the top four in the Premier League made any late moves at the conclusion of a low-key month, with some of the players who had been linked with possible deadline day moves staying put after proposed deals failed to materialise. France's World Cup winner Olivier Giroud remains at Chelsea despite reported interest in the ex-Arsenal striker from several clubs surprisingly including London rivals Tottenham Hotspur.
We know we have to strengthen, and we took that decision that some of these players, we let them go, because we needed to start afresh with a clear sight on target in front of us and that means a certain type of player in the squad," he said. This is our second defeat at home and first since August. I thought we had turned that corner," Solskjaer added.
Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer suggested on Tuesday it could be months before United's top scorer was fit for training again. The situation has caused some concern that Rashford could also be doubtful for the Euro 2020 championship starting in June. United are fifth in the Premier League, 30 points adrift of Liverpool after a 2-0 defeat by the leaders at Anfield on Sunday.

Hi! The last time these two met, Galatasaray have won 2-1. Six of the previous eight matches had goals at either end of the net. Not bad for taking bet on both teams will score :) Why not? Especially at first half of this meeting. Five of the last six games ended in home wins. Nice performance by Galatasaray makes me worry about only victory by a single goal, as the game can be tight enough well, because both teams are neighbors - one is on 4 place( Basaksehir) and the other team is on 5th place as well. But let's hope for the best and try to risk on DRAW 0:0. Good luck!
I predict the home team can win the match this time with a goal difference that is very far in comparison... the score prediction for this match is the home team and the visitors will be able to score in the first half and the second half of the game's running time... I predict that both teams will play at full strength in the first round and the second half goes on during this match... I predict the visitors will be able to score in the first round and the second half is running during this match .. I predict the ball score for this match 1-2 ..
Al Riffa are the holding champions in Bahrain winning the title last season rather easy in this country, they have played one game less than the other clubs so far in the league but have scored no less than 13 goals in 4 games played despite losing their first two games which were on the road a 4-3 defeat at 2nd placed Manama Club and a 3-2 loss at newly promoted Busaiteen side, but won their last two games which also saw over 3.5 goals being scored in them as they are very attacking minded side first a 5-0 win at home with Al-Hala and second a 3-1 win at home with Shabbab.
The minute he started training with us it was clear he could play at this level and I always had the feeling that the minute you put him in, he's just going to get better very quickly because of his quality, because of his game intelligence because of his worth ethic, because he'll put his foot in," he told the BBC.

We’re not anticipating a very high scoring game in this one as both sides look to keep things tight at the back but with Western Sydney the side more likely to create goalscoring opportunities, we’re backing the hosts to run out 2-0 winners. There shouldn’t be much threat from Brisbane Roar, who have plenty to work on and Wanderers are still re-building their season. They should have enough to win, although it may not always be the most comfortable victory.
CSKA 1948 is one of the leaders in the second level of the competition at the moment, and they should place in the top flight. They already kicked out one of the First league rivals from the Cup, and considering that Lokomotiva have lost their recent league duel, it is a big chance for the underdog to make another good performance.
All in all, we think that the dip in form of the hosts and the excellent recent performances of the visitors means that Northampton should be confident of a positive result. However, given that Exeter are strong on home soil and, whilst Northampton are not exactly poor away from home, there is still room for improvement, means that we should proceed with caution. With this in mind, we are backing the Cobblers to either win or draw on the double chance market.
Despite starting without the injured Fabinho - Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain took his place - the home side dominated for most of the match. Virgil van Dijk grabbed both first-half goals. Both from Trent Alexander-Arnold set pieces, the Dutchman headed past Mat Ryan with authority. In the second half, Brighton and Liverpool defended stoutly for the opening half an hour, with only Oxlade-Chamberlain going close, and Jurgen Klopp’s men looked happy to conserve energy ahead of a busy period of fixtures.

Bnei Yehuda is much better in away games than at home same can be said about the hosts here as the hosts won 15 points on the road while just 2 at home where they are 0-2-6 in the league alone so far this season this while Bnei Yehuda has a record of 3-4-2 on the road and won on their last visit here also with 1-0, but like I said above Bnei is really hard to beat on the road and with the hosts being really weak at home I have to take the away win in this one.
Isco (Real Madrid)Getty Images Paper Round’s view: Isco to Chelsea… It all feels rather 2017 all over again. If Chelsea really do have £150m in the bank, it’s difficult to see almost a third of that going on the Spaniard. Cavani to Atleti? Atletico Madrid are looking to sign PSG forward Edinson Cavani in January, the Daily Mail reports.
Ljungberg said he is determined to improve the atmosphere at the Emirates Stadium. Arsenal were beaten 2-1 at home in the Europa League by Eintracht Frankfurt at a half-empty stadium in Emery's final match in charge. When it comes to the Emirates, the fans want us to win and they want us to play good football," Ljungberg said.
Both sides can still technically qualify for the knockout stages but it looks very unlikely. There is still plenty on the line here though with the winner of this tie being the most likely team to qualify for the last 32 of the Europa League. Lokomotiv Moscow currently hold the advantage, with a single goal scored being the difference between the two sides at this point.

The Wizards have won six of their last eight home games. The Warriors have only won four away matches this season. The Warriors are 2-13 for this year. Washington Wizards have a 17-31 season record and are struggling to make it into postseason. They host the Golden State Warriors who are in an even worse position with only 11 wins from 50 matches this season.
He doesn't just look like he is capable of making a mistake every minute - he actually does. Pep Guardiola's side usually batter Burnley, though - City have won eight of their nine meetings while he has been in charge, and they drew the other one. Burnley made it seven league games unbeaten when they drew with Tottenham last week, but I am expecting that run to end on Saturday because City will be back on it.
Lazio were awarded a penalty after Szczesny tripped Joaquin Correa but Immobile, Serie A's leading scorer with 17 goals, saw both his spot kick and follow-up brilliantly saved by the Pole. Caicedo roundup off a pulsating match by scoring on the break with the last kick of the game after Szczesny had again done brilliantly to foil Lazzari.
Francis, who became the world's first £1m transfer when he left Blues for Nottingham Forest in 1979, took charge at St Andrew's in 1996 and oversaw a 48% overall win percentage but could not guide his side to promotion. The first of those play-off failures came after finishing fourth with 81 points, losing 7-6 to Watford in a penalty shootout, while in 1999-2000 they finished fifth before being dismantled by Barnsley in the first leg of their semi-final, losing 4-0 at St Andrew's.

Another interesting match from Belarus Reserve league where I hope that we can see plenty of goals and yea, I will try that here, because that is more than ok and real option. FK Ruch Brest Reserves is team who is in last four of six matches played in league with three or more goals and in last round, they are lost even 1-4, so they are now under pressure and they just need to win here. We will see what will happen, but for me, this match probably will be very efficient, and I will try this option here.
Rashford's United host Norwich this weekend, Abraham's Chelsea take on Burnley at Stamford Bridge, Aubameyang's Arsenal travel to Palace, and Ings and Southampton are at Vardy's Leicester. The Moyes bounce to continue?So far, so good for David Moyes, who has won two out of two without conceding a goal since returning to manage West Ham United. If you're tempted to make changes with the Friday night game in mind, you may be keen to hear that captain Mark Noble's two goals against Bournemouth took him to 45 Premier League goals, just two behind Paolo di Canio, who is the Hammers' record scorer in the competition.

However, the Argentine fan-favourite failed to deliver any silverware despite having a squad full of internationals and that is something Mourinho is determined to change as he prepares for the trip to West Ham United on Saturday. Asked if he had to keep hold of Kane to bring success to Tottenham he told a group of reporters at the club's training ground: "When you try to buy Kane it's an impossible mission.
Posted at 71' Foul by Trézéguet (Aston Villa). Burnley's Jay Rodriguez scored an 89th-minute winner to beat Bournemouth in a dire match at Vitality Stadium. There had not been a single shot on target from either side until substitute Rodriguez headed in from close range following Ashley Westwood's cross.
I’d seen it before that, of course, but they showed me – all the fans are amazing here,” he said. I had a very good feeling about Dortmund from the first moment, and that’s why I’m here. I liked the whole club, the history, the people in the club and how they run it. We decided Dortmund was the best option.
Sunderland do come here off the back of an encouraging win, but their overall away-day efforts this term cannot be ignored. The Black Cats have been poor on the road, scoring a measly average of 0.90. Combine this with the fact that Fleetwood have conceded an average of just 0.73 and a home win becomes hard to avoid. Specifically, 'Fleetwood to Win & Under 3.5 Goals' stands out.
It's devastating. We had belief before the game and we didn't perform. This is the Champions League, if you don't step up you will be punished. After the first one went in it didn't change much but we conceded too many chances as a team. It's hard to come back from those two goals. We had to show our maturity and fight and we didn't do that.
England's top flight had opted against checking for goalkeepers moving off their lines at penalties, and referees have tended not to use the pitchside monitors as often as in other leagues, because of a belief that doing so slows the game down. There has been huge controversy around individual VAR decisions in the Premier League. Earlier this month, former Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher picked out key incidents in all three matches played on one day which, in his opinion, the match officials had got wrong.
The Toffees’ main issue this season has been their lack of goalscoring threat. They have averaged just one goal per game in the league, and on Sunday they face a Leicester side that have kept four clean sheets on the bounce in the Premier League.
The Hammers - whose fans staged protests against the club's owners throughout - threatened to inflict Liverpool's first league defeat this term when they led midway through the second half. Liverpool took an early lead when Fabianski failed to deal with a routine Gini Wijnaldum header but David Moyes' side showed great character to hit back through Issa Diop's header, which should also have been kept out by Alisson.

A goal had been coming but it is Norwich with it, Mario Vrancic with his first Premier League goal. Woeful defending from Spurs. Juan Foyth gives the ball away, Vrancic carries the ball forward, has men either side, but uses them as a decoy, utilising the space afforded to him to pick his spot, slotting the ball into the net.

Now the visitors come here with a terrible run of form, in-fighting and an underwhelming new manager. Everything is falling Sassuolo’s way, while problems continue to mount for the visitors. Kalidou Koulibaly is ruled out, leaving Napoli weakened as they try to end their five-game winless run on the road in Serie A.
When Bruno Fernandes arrived at Manchester United, he joined a team which had been jeered off by their own fans in a home defeat by Burnley days earlier. It was the low point in the club's season, their fourth defeat in seven Premier League matches. The atmosphere at Old Trafford was called "toxic", the performance an "embarrassment" and United's squad was "the worst in the last 30 years" after that result on 22 January.
Fresh doubt has been cast over the future of Bury Football Club after they defaulted on a plan to help settle their outstanding debts. Creditors approved a company voluntary arrangement (CVA) proposal last July which would have seen the club's football creditors paid in full. Unsecured creditors, including HMRC, were due to be paid 25% of money owed. Bury, who were expelled from the English Football League last August, had until Tuesday to pay the CVA.
Lawro's prediction: 2-0Scotty's prediction: Liverpool will win, but Burnley are a stubborn, stubborn side.

Despite the awful defensive stats under Kombouaré, les Violets actually created the ninth most chances in Ligue 1 during the New Caledonian's tenure and we think this could do some damage against Brest. The visitors have just one clean sheet on the road this season with 24 goals conceded in their 12 games so we're backing this one to finish 2-1 to the hosts.
