Porto have a good record against Braga and have outperformed Friday’s visitors so far this season. The Portuguese giants have won 37 of their last 57 matches against Braga and with six wins from their last six games in all competitions, the hosts head into Friday’s clash as the bookmakers’ favourites to secure all three points.
Having been outstanding for the entire season and at one point being the closest challengers to eventual champions Liverpool, their miserable run has come at the wrong time and they have now won just two of their last eight games. They are clinging on to fourth place but are level on points and goal difference with Manchester United, who know a heavy victory against West Ham in their next league match will leave Leicester needing a big win of their own on the final day.
Some major sports events are going ahead though. In Britain the week-long Cheltenham horse racing festival, attracting thousands of fans each day, was gearing up for its blue-riband Gold Cup later on Friday. In rugby, Saturday's Six Nations clash between Wales and Scotland is also going ahead in Cardiff while this weekend's Premiership Rugby Cup final in England between Sale Sharks and Harlequins in Manchester also survives.

I expect an easy win for home side

Spurs in for Cavani too? Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho wants two strikers to make up for losing Harry Kane to a long-term injury, the Independent reports. Krzysztof Piatek is one target, so too Edinson Cavani - though his wage demands could be too high - while Christian Benteke and Fernando Llorente are two more names mentioned.
I'd like to see a strong, box to box, midfielder added to the squad. We thought we had strengthened well with the loan capture of Drinkwater but for one reason or another it didn't quite work out as planned. As for names, is there a young Paul Scholes or Steven Gerrard available anywhere?The squad is not the youngest and changes are going to have to be made sooner rather than later, but in this window I wouldn't consider it a good idea for any of our players to leave.
Front row (l-r) Steve Finnan, Milan Baros, Luis Garcia, Steven Gerrard and John Arne RiiseIt was not the greatest Liverpool team that has ever won the Champions League or European Cup, as everyone knows. That is all part of the story, but the delicious irony for me is with Rafa Benitez's tactics. He went into the final thinking he could stop Milan, and he had picked a team to do that, but that plan went totally out of the window in the first half.

PSV have kept clean sheets in 25% of their home games and Zwolle are yet to keep a clean sheet on the road. The hosts have won-to-nil in 25% of their home games and the visitors have lost-to-nil in 56% of their away games, providing even more reasons to back a 2-0 win for PSV this weekend.
The Eagles are in 11th place, three points behind The Blades in 8th; the visitors could end the day fifth if other results go their way. A promoted side that many predicted would go straight back down in their first season up, Sheffield United have defied those expectations. Instead of hanging around the relegation zone, they are knocking on the door of the Champions League places.
The exact score earns 40 points. LAWRO'S PREDICTIONSTUESDAY Leicester v Brighton (18:00 BST)Leicester's draw with Watford on Saturday was such a strange game, with both goals coming in stoppage time. Ben Chilwell's strike to put the Foxes ahead was such a cracking goal and they must have thought they had nicked the points. That is exactly what Brighton did against Arsenal later in the day, and that really was a vital win for them.
To go up against a manager I respect so much from my playing days and for everything he's done in the game, and win, that obviously feels good," Lampard said. Even if we had anything on the line during the heat of the 90 minutes, which we didn't, it wouldn't change that. What Jose's done in his career and did for me as a player, means I have respect forever for him on that one.

Jurgen Klopp. Video - Van Dijk more deserving of Ballon d'Or than Messi00:29 10:00 - Emery under pressure Good morning and welcome to rolling coverage from the world of football news.

Arsenal have been in talks over a £10m deal for 26-year-old Flamengo defender Pablo Mari but the move has currently stalled.

Match Day 31st of the Spain La Liga where Real Sociedad will be hosting Celta Vigo. Real Sociedad sit 7th place in the standings while Celta Vigo sit 16th place. What is my opinion about this game? The host are stronger in my eyes after vigo could only win 1 of their last 5 games. But despite Celta Vigo not in good form, they have conceded the least amongst these 2 teams and have played draw in all of their last 4 games on the road. Celta rolled over Alaves 6-0. Was that a relief for Celta Vigo in the fight for relegation? Obviously no. Real Sociedad, on the other hand, came off the Corona break badly with three games in a row without a win, a draw against Osasuna and two losses against Alaves and Real Madrid.

The Hammers are only a point from safety so it is a recoverable situation. With 17th placed Aston Villa in the EFL Cup final this weekend, a point would take West Ham above Villa but it’s a win they need. West Ham have no wins in their last six league matches with only two points earned. This is a vital game for them because their next four games are all against sides in the top nine.
City may be about to lose the Premier League crown that has been theirs for the past two seasons to Liverpool but they remain a top-class team and totally deserved this win in the competition that made up part of their historic domestic treble last season.
