Sheffield Wednesday will host Nottingham Forest for this fixture of the league. Both teams have a poor results in the last matches and I expect another one tough match for both sides. Nottingham are more ambitious team in this season. They probably will try to make a positive result. In last game Nottingham lost 0-3 against Millwall. On the other hand Sheffield Wednesday is very average team in this campaign. True, the hosts have fallen in their shape. Also, Sheffield Wed. are more vulnerable team in their defense lately. In previous game Sheffield Wed lost 5-0 against Brentford. I think, the visitors will try to get the victory on the opposite stadium.

All this 'the fans aren't happy he's coming back'. He's been appointed to make sure they stay up. His record is very good and if you look at how many times he has been a manager in the Premier League, he knows all about it and how it works. David Moyes' record at West Ham in his first spellI know Bournemouth have been hit by injuries but they look flat. I think West Ham will get a bounce because of the new manager.

England have been presented with the time-honoured tournament dilemma that it would actually be better to finish second in their group but Southgate will know that such manipulation is impossible and victory in the opening game against the dangerous Croats is essential to set the nation's mood and the momentum of his team.

Premier League can go it aloneFirst of all, the good news. Although Premier League officials are heavily involved in discussions with Uefa, European leagues and clubs about how the game deals with the coronavirus crisis, there is no obligation on them to take the same course as any other league. So, if Italy or Spain, two of the countries hardest hit at present, abandoned Serie A or La Liga, the Premier League would not have to follow suit.
I'm so proud of the way we play. That's important to us, but at the end you're going to judge me on winning trophies and all the pundits are going to have a go at me for having small squads, but it's the way it goes. I'm hearing that I'm very stubborn and I am because I will never play a transition game.
GOAL! Man Utd 2-0 Watford (Martial) A little bit of genius from Anthony Martial makes it 2-0! He was put through on goal by Fernandes and had his first shot blocked by the outrushing Foster. Then he collected the loose ball and improvised brilliantly to dummy a couple of defenders and flip the ball cockily over the keeper.
We don't think that Sergio's side will be quite good enough to overcome a Sevilla side who go into this fixture unbeaten in seven across all competitions; however we think Pucela can hold Sevillistas to a 1-1 draw, with under 2.5 goals also forecasted.

We already have some great talent in our squad - look at how the fans have got behind Allan Saint-Maximin this season, just as one example - and there is a hunger in so many of our players.

In the time that Pogba was on the pitch, United had 10 shots, with six of them on target. He was one of the players to test Foster, with a curling shot from a tight angle. Crouch: "Without Pogba, and with Juan Mata also starting on the bench, there was not enough guile in the United team to open Watford up. The Hornets made things difficult for them by keeping lot of men behind the ball, and they did not leave any space for Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford, Jesse Lingard or Daniel James to run into behind them.
The alleged perpetrator of the second incident avoided a similar fate.

Unfortunately that drug was not effective - no difference with placebo," says Dr Antonio Belli, the neurologist who oversaw Curtis's recovery. Rory would have done so well thanks to his genes and fitness, probably. Although it was remarkable that Curtis was able to return to football at all, he still had high expectations of himself and struggled to reconcile with the fact his first touch was no longer immaculate, and that his pace, his other primary asset, had slowed half a stride.
However, Mourinho remains wary of the festive schedule, which will see his side play four games in 11 days, with Moussa Sissoko, Harry Winks and Son Heung-min all suspended for the third of those, at Carrow Road. I cannot imagine that these boys can play in less than 48 hours," he added. It is a crime that they are going to play football again in 48 hours. It's against every rule of physiology and biology.

Keown: "It was a truly memorable day for me as an Arsenal fan and player.

Looking at history of these two teams the home team has always had the advantage in this fixture. Not only is the home team with an advantage in this fixture history but also they are building up momentum on a positive note while the away team is struggling to create winning ways.

Despite there being a fight for at least a point by the away team I still see the home team cruising with full points from this fixture with a bit of ease.
