The idea behind the Champions League conclusion would shorten the competition.
Immobile will need to hit the ground running again to keep a determined Ronaldo off his back. Lazio have already got the better of Juventus this season Lazio beat Juventus in Saudi Arabia in December last year to win the Italian Super CupThe first part of the season may feel like it happened before the last ice age but nevertheless, Lazio have already got the better of Juventus in the current campaign.
AC Milan had a poor start to the season but are now chasing a place in the Europa League. The arrival of Zlatan Ibrahimovic has helped boost their hopes. Their away form is solid and they nearly beat Juventus in the Italian Cup semi-final first leg. Fiorentina had a decent start to the season but have struggled for consistency at home. A double chance bet on AC Milan is the suggested wager here.
Well this are wrong odds for me here. Hammarby are the better team but for sure they are not deserving to be such a big favorites here. Both teams showed some very good performances during the preparations and during their first matches of the season. At smallest hand this should be an even match for sure. Elfsborg are not what they used to be but still are between the "good" teams at Sweden. Hammarby made a huge progress throughout the last few season but IMO this will be one even match where anyone can win for sure. Value here is at Elfsborg who can "surprise" a few.

FC Porto head to this game as firm favorites, with a good run not just in their recent matches but also against Moreirense. They have not lost in their last 11 matches and have done well away from home as well. With a run of seven unbeaten away in the league, they will have an edge over Moreirense, though the hosts carry a four – game unbeaten home run in the league. Moreirense have no clean sheet in the last five home matches and facing Porto in their current form will be an uphill task. Porto have scored two or more in nine of their last 15 matches and with the hosts’ form, we feel Porto will keep up the good run. We are backing Porto for a 2-0 win here.

An unlikely hiccup could be the FA Cup. Although Liverpool's kids impressed in the 1-0 win over Everton in the third round, the 5-0 pumping they took at the hands of Aston Villa in the League Cup was a bigger concern. Klopp will likely use the competition to rest his biggest names for at least another round or two.
It was easy to think that this Sevilla side looked set to replicate the inconsistent and often toothless version that we witnessed during the last campaign after they lost three La Liga games from four in late September / early October, however they have gelled together superbly over the past two months and answered their critics in style.

The hosts have seen both teams score in 75% of their home games this term, while it has landed in each of their last five Serie A matches. Cagliari have scored in 16 straight matches and they are looking to add to that in this clash. With the hosts looking too open, we think both teams to score is a good bet here.
Scoring goals hasn't been a problem for El Tate, with an average of 1.07 a game plunged in but keeping them out is proving their downfall, conceding an even bigger average of 1.38. Even over their last 3 games, Union have scored 5 times but conceded 6 and that has them travelling to the capital confident in hurting Boca offensively but also highly unlikely to keep them at bay.
Zbrojovka Brno are ranked 2nd place in the standings with 44 points, they are without any doubt big favorite for the win. However they are playing away from home. Listen are much weaker opponent, they are ranked 11th place in the league with 26 points. As you can see there is big difference in points won.
With just two defeats all season, Wolves remain one of the toughest teams to beat in the Premier League, and having done the double over West Ham last season, Wanderers will feel they have the measure of this Hammers' outfit. With that considered, we're backing Nuno Espirito Santos' side to win 2-1 in our correct score prediction.

They played before 3 days and they drawn 3-3. In first half was more good An Giang while in second half Dong Thap drawed the match. However in this match I see more favorite the home team. An Giang in the last season also was more good than Dong Thap and I see a win for them. Of course this is a friendly match however An Gains is without a win in 5 matches while they have a draw a lose and a win against Dong Thap. Home win here for me. Home team needs to win to raise the moral of the squad.
Nonetheless, Levante should still be in good spirits heading into this Saturday's clash with Alaves, and they have been in great form overall at Ciutat de Valencia this season.

Only 18 days separated Arsenal saying Unai Emery was "the right man for the job" before they decided to sack him. At that point, the Gunners were five games without a win, which has since extended to seven - their worst run of results in 27 years. But it has been the manner of performances under the Spanish manager which have also proved costly as they slipped behind Wolves, Sheffield United and Burnley to sit eighth in the Premier League table.

Amstetten against GAK here, meeting of the Erste Liga of Austrian football that is played today afternoon at 19:10. Amstetten favored for the victory of the match comes from a 2-2 away draw against the same opponents in a match played in fields reversed a week ago; both teams have the same technical potential and it is possible that another draw will occur here; the Amstetten however does not play at all badly for being a team of low rankings -I got to see some of his matches and seems to be a pretty well organized team despite having no major player- so let's try 1 Ah-0.25 and Good Luck! ;-)
Aberdeen may find themselves a considerable distance behind the front-running pair of Rangers and Celtic, but they've done well of late, winning four of their last five.

We will see the intentions that we have and his intentions," said Arteta. Where we are sitting in the table at that moment. I think it is difficult to predict that context right now. Torreira suffers fractured ankleAubameyang missed a glaring chance to send Arsenal through with the last kick of the match against Olympiakos, having seemingly put his side on course to progress with a goal in extra-time before Youssef El Arabi's late winner.
Arsenal are not better than their opponent in their overall form as well as the table standings. Arsenal has even sacked a coach for things to improve but they are worsening as times goes on they have become unpredictable team.
We’re confident that a double chance bet on Schalke will payout on Wednesday night and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-1. Schalke have an excellent record against their hosts over the last couple of years, head into the game as the slight form favourites and sit 5pts clear of Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga table. The visitors have even picked up more points on the road than the hosts have managed in their own backyard this season, which is why we are confident Schalke will come away with at least a point to show for their efforts.

Both Spurs and Southampton have struggled a bit in the past few matches but we believe Spurs will be more confident going to this clash after their win over Manchester City. One factor about this game is the plenty of goals the two sides have been scoring. With the rise Southampton have had lately, disregarding the 4-0 loss to Liverpool, we expect them to push Spurs but with the hosts holding home advantage and straight from a crucial win, we expect the home side to win this. We believe we will see quite some goals here, judging by the returns in attack these sides have had. We will thus go for over 2.5 goals.

Referee Craig Pawson refused to send Jorginho off and gave a free-kick, much to the annoyance of Alexandre Lacazette.
Curtis always was sharp up top. My mum's got six sisters," Curtis explains. All of them were teachers apart from my mum. I thought, 'Get my teaching qualifications, then do barbering'. My parents owned Charlie Parker's [barber's shop]. They had four or five salons in the mid-to-late 80s and early 90s. It's always been in the family, the hairdressing, so I thought I'd mix the two - teaching from my mum's side, and then the barbering.
MANCHESTER, England, Dec 5 (Reuters) - A week ago there was little about Saturday's Manchester derby to whet the appetite but after statement performances from both teams it suddenly has the feel of 'must watch' football again. Manchester City had lost their mojo, their draw at Newcastle United the latest in a series of below-par performances which suggested not only that their title hopes were fading but that Pep Guardiola might need to think about a rebuild of his side.
