The start to the season was disastrous for New Zealand’s representatives in the A-League, conceding eight in the opening four games and looking like they might be cut adrift at the foot of the table. They’ve been able to find a little bit of form though and look a lot more competitive across the pitch.
West Ham v Chelsea (20:15 BST)Chelsea boss Frank Lampard has shown his ability to improve his side during games - they showed it against Manchester City last week and again to knock Leicester out of the FA Cup on Sunday. They have not played well for the entire game in any of their three games in the past 10 days, but they have won them all. Media playback is not supported on this device FA Cup: Leicester City 0-1 Chelsea highlights West Ham in contrast, have lost two out of two and my worry with them is still where their goals are going to come from.
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. They've also won each of their last two at Pittodrie, beating Kilmarnock and St. Mirren, scoring five and conceding one in the process. Facing Rangers is another kettle of fish, though The Dons ought to be confident after their recent exploits.
As anyone who has tuned into the Champions League since the start of last season will suspect, Ajax are the powerhouses of the division and only appear to have one realistic challenger, AZ Alkmaar, three points behind in second. Their opponents, Sparta, have enjoyed a decent return to the top flight after winning promotion last season.
If only this April, Shakhtyor Soligorsk and Brest meet a total of 2 times, the result is quite balanced when each team has 1 victory. Before that, they had encountered in the Belarus Super Cup match, and Brest easily got a 2-0 victory to complete the title collection.
What a poor overall performance from the hosts in the Champions League finishing bottom a group which at first sight did not really seem to pose them any problems to qualify from either 1st or 2nd place. Still much better in the league where they are 9-3-3 this season once more fighting for a top place and to play once more in the Champions League next season as well.
This has been most noticeable since the 2-2 draw at Arsenal in late November, which saw Hasenhuttl revert to 4-4-2, having utilised a three-man defence for the three defeats that preceded it, including the infamous 9-0 home capitulation to Leicester. Crucially, the game at the Emirates also came after an international break, during which Saints were able to take stock, lick their wounds and rediscover their appetite for the high-pressing football Hasenhuttl demands.
Ahal are on the second place with 21 points, just three behind the leaders Altyn Asyr. That means this match is very important as the victory here could see them sharing the top of the table. However, the actual form is not at desired level. Ahal have suffered two defeats on the last three league matches. They lost 1:2 in the derby with Altyn Asyr and lost 3:0 from Merw. The only victory was obtained against Sagadam. Their poor form is the key reason for my pick. I expect Kopetdag Asgabat to remain unbeaten in this match. They have just one defeat on the last four visits to Heal. Good mutual record shouldn't be underestimated.

Alfredo Morelos is a 10-part Netflix series unto himself. When his team needed him most on that run-in, he collapsed. In his last nine games he didn't score once. That's 12 hours without a goal for a proven goalscorer. That's not an issue of talent, it's an issue of mentality. Gerrard has signed too many players who are not made of the right stuff. They won five of their last 10 games. They lost against Hearts, Kilmarnock and Hamilton, drew with Aberdeen and St Johnstone, and and got over the line by a single goal against St Mirren, Hibernian, Livingston and Ross County.
Leicester put four and three goals past Championship team Luton Town (4-0) and League One's Burton Albion (3-1) in the early rounds of the League Cup – and both those ties were played away from the King Power Stadium.

Playing away from home hasn't exactly been something that Tuesday's visitors have thrived at since the word go, but they've done well of late, losing just one of their last six travelling matches, three of which they've won. During that time, they've got the better of some very decent sides such as Crewe and Bradford, both of whom are currently in the top six.

In the second Austrian league, Vorwärts Steyr and Amstetten face off. Bookmakers have already identified Steyr as a clear favorite. But I don't see Steyr as a clear favorite here. Both teams are close together in the table. Amstetten was able to win all of the last three direct duels and both teams are pretty good after the Corona break. So I can imagine that Vorwärts Steyr will not be so easy to win here.
So yes, we want to put things right even when it's a different competition. West Ham, who were beaten 2-0 by second-placed Manchester City in their last league outing, would come to Anfield and "defend with all they have", he added. With all the brilliance that Man City have. West Ham) weren't outplayed like you would expect when City is on the pitch," Klopp said.
The arrival of their new boss should improve things for a Stoke side who have showed their talents with some strong displays, sitting in the top half based on the strength of their performance data. They’ve been let down by bad luck and defensive errors, but that’s something O’Neill has proven he can fix.

I do not agree with bookmakers for this duel. Southampton has two victories in a row, at away against Aston Villa and in last round against Chelsea, but despite that, Southampton will have a strong pressure from domestic crowd, because they disappointment them so many times in current season, actually they have only two victories and one draw at home ground. Crystal Palace plays well at home as at away, in last round, they won against West Ham, and they are five points above Southampton at standings, no doubt they will be strongly motivated to avoid defeat in this duel. Match without winner
Chelsea have only won two of their last eight Premier League away games. Six of the Liverpool's last seven home matches against Chelsea featured fewer than 2.5 goals. Liverpool are undefeated in their last 56 home matches in the Premier League. Chelsea can book their place in next season's Champions League with a win over Liverpool in the Premier League on Wednesday.
Mourinho has guided Spurs to four wins in five league games since replacing Mauricio Pochettino as manager last month and another victory this weekend would mean his side leapfrog Chelsea into the top four. Meanwhile, Chelsea have lost four of their past five league matches but Lampard does not see any reason to panic.
Jesus the lucky charm - the statsManchester City have won 11 consecutive top-flight home games against a single opponent for the very first time in the club's history. Newcastle boss Steve Bruce has failed to win any of his 23 Premier League away games in Manchester (D4 L19), with this his ninth such defeat against City (10 v United). Thanks to Riyad Mahrez's strike, Manchester City are the first English top-flight side to have five different players score at least 10 league goals in a single season since Everton in 1984-85 (Sterling, De Bruyne, Aguero, Jesus, Mahrez).
The Clarets were unable to stop Palace scoring against them in each of their last three skirmishes with the Eagles, we think Roy Hodgson's men can prolong that record by notching a consolation at Turf Moor on Saturday.
The sessions will be held by dividing the players into groups, in order to ensure proper compliance with health regulations. However, the Italian players' union (AIC) has said that it is still not safe for teams to train. We have denounced the behaviour of some clubs because they even want the players to train during these days," said AIC president Damiano Tommasi on Monday.
The second leg between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich is considered the decisive match to the championship of the German championship 2019/20. Understandably when they are the top teams in the rankings. In particular, Bayern Munich ranked in No. 1 with 61 points and 4 points higher than the 2nd team Dortmund.
The former Manchester City defender said the squad had gone through a transition period with youngsters coming through but that everyone seemed to be on the same page as Southgate. It seems as though there's a happy camp there," he added. A lot of people seem to be enjoying the football again, and it's showing on the pitch.
We just put Adama more in the middle," Nuno said. When you adjust during the game, inside the stress of the game, and he immediately produces it's a big step for you. We don't have time to be in the training ground so these solutions we have to give and we did it. Southampton had their own chances to respond through Nathan Redmond and Ryan Bertrand but they failed to find the back of the net as the hosts suffered their first defeat in six league matches.
Real Esteli will against Real Madrid in match Nicaragua Premier Division. My prediction this match could be the won for Real Esteli with margin score is 1 goal. Therefore, I think that Real Madrid will be won with asian handicap 1.75 goals. Moreover Real Madriz on last 3 match have lose in 2 match and 1 match is draw. However, Real Madrid lose only with margin 1 goal. Meanwhile, Real Esteli have good result on last 3 match due to Real Esteli have won in 2 match and 1 match is lose. Even though Real Esteli will difficult to beat Real Madrid with margin score 2 goals or more.
DVTK even lost last round with no less than 4-0 away from home at 2nd from bottom club Debrecen and believe me when I tell you that Packs is in even better form at this stage of the season and also in dire need of points being just 2 points ahead of the relegation places after they lost last round with 3-1 away from home at 4th placed Puskas Academy, but that was indeed a tough game for them.
Kepa questions as Chelsea falterIt is hard to escape the sense that Kepa still faces a fight to secure his future at Stamford Bridge after an uncertain season that even saw the £71m signing dropped for Willy Caballero shortly before the season went into hiatus. And he did nothing to dispel doubts here. When Chelsea came under pressure in the first half, he failed to command his area and they were fortunate to see Soucek's goal chalked off by VAR before the Czech rose to head West Ham in front from another corner.

Adana Demirspor is ranked 7th on the list with 42 points. Teachers and coach Cüneyt Dumlupınar can still compete for a promotion ticket. So they need to play well for the rest of the season to nurture that goal. Osmanlıspor's visit in the 28th round is not a difficult challenge for Adana Demirspor. With the home team in bad shape, it is unlikely that the visitors will win very hard. Looking at the Asian rafters in the previous confrontations between the two teams, Adana Demirspor is highly appreciated when accepting more than 1 goal at home. And Osmanlispor only evaluate the bargain to lose with home advantage. But the important thing this fulcrum helped them get the victory.

Wednesday's win over Wolves took them to seventh and now they host Chelsea who are third in the Premier League. United didn't make a good re-start earning just a single point from their first three league games and being kocked out of the FA Cup. It looked as if they might even slip out of the top ten but have since won seven points from their last three matches, including home wins over Tottenham and Wolves.
