Both teams have scored in three of the last five meetings between Moreirense and Porto and the same can be said about four of Moreirense’s last six matches in league and cup as well as in four of Porto’s last six outings, so you can see why we have backed both teams to score this Friday.
The hosts are 2nd placed in the league at this moment they are 7 points away from the current league leaders from Wolfsburg II but they have two games less played than them and this one is really easy especially the great form that Lubeck is in at this moment winning lately 4-0 at home with Hannover II and 7-0 with Heider SV, while last away game a few days ago they also won the game with 5-0 on the road at Kiel II, and are 8-0-1 at home with 27 goals scored and just 8 goals conceded.
Regardless, two wins - or one win and two draws - from their remaining three games will bring the championship to Zinedine Zidane's side. Real Madrid v Alaves as it happenedAlaves, three points above the relegation zone, were overseen by new manager Juan Lopez Muniz for the first time after a five-game losing run had led to Asier Garitano's departure. But the Basque underdogs almost took a shock lead in the opening minutes when former Stoke and Newcastle striker Joselu's header crashed off the bar and Lucas Perez's follow-up was cleared off the line by Raphael Varane.
The game, at the old Gay Meadow, got postponed twice - first because of snow, then a waterlogged pitch - and did not get played until fifth-round weekend, when Liverpool enjoyed a 4-0 Sunday stroll. But, just four days earlier, Liverpool had suffered the loss of Anfield great Bob Paisley - who was one of the most successful managers English football has ever known, winning six league titles and three European Cups in nine years as Liverpool boss.
In March 2007, in his first home encounter against Real Madrid on a Saturday night at the Nou Camp, his last-gasp equaliser earned Barcelona a draw against the old enemy. It also completed his first Clasico hat-trick and was one of the first times we would witness the footballing phenomenon that is Messi making the difference. Nearly 13 years and 26 Clasico goals later, Messi is still making a difference but questions about his future remain.

Referee Nick Walsh produced the red card for Hamilton and, to compound Accies' misery, Edouard swept the free-kick over the wall and past Luke Southwood from the edge of the box. From that point onwards, the one-way traffic towards the Accies goal was relentless. The home side's defending, though, was immense.
It was always a dream for me. The day I made a decision to leave this football club I said to the people that I am going outside, I am going to learn, get prepared and hopefully one day I can come back here when I feel I am ready. I have been preparing for a few years for this challenge to come. I know the expectations, level and stature of this club and what it deserves. I am ready for that challenge.
La Liga wants Messi pitch-invader chargedLa Liga hopes for fans by end of the seasonThis was Atletico's first match since knocking holders Liverpool out of the Champions League at Anfield on 11 March. Diego Simeone's side remain sixth in the table but are now level on points with Real Sociedad, who sit fourth and in the final Champions League qualifying spot. Athletic Bilbao fans greeted the team coach before the match at the San Mames StadiumIn their first game back since La Liga resumed after being suspended because of the coronavirus pandemic, Atletico were denied all three points when Bilbao keeper Unai Simon produced a fine late save to keep out Santiago Arias.
Ultimately, there can be no doubting that Trabzonspor are clear and obvious favourites to win this game. Man for man, they are a stronger outfit than Konyaspor all over the pitch and that's something that's more than reflected in the 11 points that already separate the two.
Home team probably will not have any problems to win this duel with at least 2-0 and probably and more than that. I was watched and follow Lokomotive Pamir in first round in new season in this league, and they are played pretty solid, it was 2-2. On the other side is Dushanbe 83, as I know, team who is played in second round last season. They are played poor in first round and lost against actual champion, even 0-7. With so poor defense, they will surely lost many matches this season and probably and this one, it is clear.
The home team play in the National League. There reach a good result, especially at home, they received a lot of goals, this impressive performance give a chance to fight the promotion places. Monaco run an interesting season. They started bad, so the board fored the coach and appointed Jardim, few games later Jardim fired, too, but the situation is better than a few weeks ago, the team start play football, played a great 3-3 draw in Paris, although few days later they lost vs. PSG at home. Both teams to score this game, their French Cup games bring plenty of goals, so hope this streak will continue.
In their last five matches, since the league resumed, Bremen have scored three goals and kept three clean sheets, while conceding seven. The big worry for them will be that they have really underperformed at home this season. Of their 14 matches at home this season in the league, Bremen have won just once.
The last English side to have a longer run were Chelsea, who won seven in a row at Stamford Bridge between March 2008 and February 2009. Manager Pep Guardiola has won nine of his 12 matches against Shakhtar Donetsk in all competitions as manager (won nine, drew one, lost two) - he has won more games against the Ukrainian side than he has versus any other in European competition. Riyad Mahrez has been directly involved in more Champions League goals versus Shakhtar Donetsk than he has against any other team in the competition (two goals, four assists).
At least go to the monitor - it takes 30 seconds. The referee on the pitch has to be the one to take the decisions. My intention when I ran to the front post was not to push Williams. I'm not saying the push from Fred was a penalty but my push is a consequence of his push. Lampard: "Azpilicueta gets a shove in the back - it's not clear, it's not obvious, Azpi has been pushed in the back. Solskjaer: "I didn't see a foul by Fred for the disallowed goal.
Stoke City winger James McClean has been fined two weeks’ wages by the club for an inappropriate social media post. The 30-year-old Republic of Ireland international has also agreed to delete his Instagram account. He posted a picture of himself wearing a balaclava in front of two children, with the caption “Today's school lesson - History” along with a laughing emoji. I never wanted to cause any offence but I now realise I did so and for that I apologise unreservedly,” he said.
So if you’re a Manchester United fan bemoaning the state of things at your club and how awful it is that they might finish eighth this year, remember there’s a club down the road in Bury that has just disappeared. Still, that obviously doesn’t mean they can’t complain, so that brings us to Milan, who are going through something of an existential crisis at the moment, the low point of which came at the weekend when they were on the thick end of an absolute hosing by Atalanta.
The Reds are 25 points clear as they seek a first league title for 30 years. It'll be fantastic when it happens but the fans are not going to be there," McManaman said on BBC Radio 5 Live. Further down the line, the fans will be allowed in, they can celebrate properly then and have a parade round the city. But you saw the reaction of the fans when Liverpool brought home the Champions League. If they win the league after 30 years, they will celebrate, but it won't be the same as being at the ground and celebrating with the team.
Paper Round's view: The battle for Sancho's signature is going to be a nail-biter. The England international is being touted at around £120 million, despite only being 19 years old. Sancho has been one of the most exciting attacking wide players over the past two years and he has gathered plenty of interest in his home nation, even though he plays in the Bundesliga.
Granada have lost their last seven away league games. Granada have failed to score in their last five away league matches. Only Barcelona have won a league game at Atletico Madrid this season.

Powell, 50, joined Three Lions manager Gareth Southgate's team in September, and his new job will not that role.

Ferguson gave Sheringham the call to replace Blomqvist after 65 minutes and spent a couple of minutes talking to him on the touchline. Come on,” said an impatient Sheringham. Get me on now. Sheringham’s introduction meant a change of shape for United, whose freestyle formation was closest to a diamond midfield – Butt deepest, Giggs on the left and Beckham right, with Yorke behind the front two and Sheringham also pulling left.
Setien has put his boots on and joined some of the team's training sessions himself, and was filmed laughing with midfielder Arturo Vidal after the Chilean tried to embarrass him by passing the ball through his legs. I like to feel football from the inside, so I like to participate in parts of the session and transmit my knowledge to the players that way," he explained.
All five of Everton's away wins in the Premier League this season have been by a one-goal margin. They're the only side in the division this season to have had 100% of their away wins by a single goal. Sheffield United failed to register a shot on target in a home league game for the first time since August 2016, in a 0-3 defeat to Southend in League One.

Rowett's Millwall go sixth, ahead of the rest of Wednesday's Championship fixtures, while Graeme Jones' Luton will drop to the bottom if Wigan Athletic beat Birmingham City at St Andrew's.

Nottingham Forest could really do with getting three points from this game. A good end to the season could yet see them earn automatic promotion to the Premier League. A play-off spot looks more likely, as long as they can get back in winning ways. This is an ideal opportunity for them with their opponents struggling for form. Their away form is poor and they concede far too many goals. Go for a home win here.

Last year, football authorities attempted to shut the beoutQ service down without success. Saudi broadcaster Arabsat has always denied that beoutQ uses its frequencies to show matches illegally and has accused beIN of being behind "defamation attempts and misleading campaigns".
The Victory season has been fairly average across the board but last weekend’s 4-0 win over Newcastle Jets makes easier reading of their stats for Melbourne fans. They have now scored and conceded 15 goals and will be looking to move into positive numbers for the first time this season with another win here. The fixture list has been quite kind to Victory over the past couple of weeks but these games could well be confidence boosters ahead of their impending matches against the current top three at the end of the month.

Raith Rovers against Forfar Athletic in match Scotland League 1. My prediction this match could be won for Raith Rovers with margin score is 2 goals. Raith Rovers have great result on last 5 match due to Raith Rovers have won in 3 match, 1 match is draw and 1 match is lose. Meanwhile, Forfar Athletic have not good result on last 5 match due to Forfar Athletic always lose. Therefore my prediction that Raith Rovers can defeat Forfar Athletic due to Raith Rovers have yet lose in every home match. Surely Raith Rovers have more chance to win on this match.
We’re confident that under 2.5 goals will be produced in Friday’s clash and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-1 between the pair. Boavista have drawn a lot of games on the road so far this season and it’s been over a decade since they won at this stadium. Both teams have played to a similar standard so far this season and the vast majority of their league games have produced under 2.5 goals and we’re expecting another low-scoring ninety minutes on Friday.
Hodgson's side still face a tough run-in with six of the current top seven sides to come in their remaining games, but their recent form means they can now afford to enjoy those challenges. Watford unable to build on stunning Liverpool winWatford recorded the shock of the Premier League season so far as they produced a magnificent performance to end leaders Liverpool's unbeaten campaign in stunning style and provide a significant boost to their survival prospects last weekend.
Russel Martin certainly hasn't turned MK Dons into a side that looks likely to avoid relegation with ease, but The Dons are seemingly moving in the right direction under their fledgling boss. They've lost only one of their last four and have won each of their last two home matches in all competitions, beating a very good Oxford side when last in action in the league at this venue.
Football's biggest carbon emitters Air travel by the top 20 footballers nominated for the 2019 Ballon d'Or was responsible for producing 505 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions this year alone, according to a climate change researcher.

FRIDAY Sheff Utd v West Ham (20:00 GMT)New West Ham boss David Moyes has two wins out of two so far, but after beating Bournemouth and Gillingham, this is a much bigger test.

Goals from Olivier Giroud and Marcos Alonso proved to be decisive in the Premier League meeting but Lo Celso was controversially granted a reprieve after a lengthy VAR referral following a stamp on the Chelsea skipper. PGMOL (Professional Game Match Officials Limited) has subsequently admitted to Sky Sports that the decision not to dismiss Lo Celso was a "human error by video officials".

4 points clear of Porto at the top of the Primeira Liga, there's a good feeling around Benfica coming into this cup tie. Having won their last 9 home games, keeping 6 clean sheets in the process, confidence can be very high in extending a run of 5 straight wins against Rio Ave.
