I think sometimes we need to take a reality check to say let's accept maybe we are not where we want to be in every facet. I think the expectation coming back from the World Cup was massive and it probably surprised everybody and that takes education, experience, learning. What we have tried to do with the team is put as much protection and education blankets around them to make sure they are able to handle the things we have thrown at them, or people have thrown at them.
As both teams focus on their respective league objectives, this competition is likely be viewed as secondary by both. The Addicks will prioritise moving away from the drop-zone, while West Brom boss Bilic has stated that he will rest key players after a busy festive schedule. Such circumstances make it tough for punters looking to get involved in this fixture.
Mladost Titograd to host the leader Buducnost, Very tough match for the home side who is fighting not to be in the relegation zone, they have Petrovac on their tail with the same points. I think they will drop to the red zone today.
Dinamo Minsk will try their best to get a win when they visit newcomer Smolevichy. Minsk could not qualify for Europa league place last time out and it was for the first time since 2012. They suffered consecutive defeats in first two matches, then bagged a couple of home wins. They are currently sitting on 12th place. This is only the second season in top division for the hosts. They are yet to salvage a win and managed 3 points from 3 draws, they also drew against Shakhtyor Soligorsk. They are sitting on 15th in the table, and a win here can take them to 6th spot and they might get it.
The money"This stoppage raises other problems, one of which is decisive, the economic one," said Marseille boss Andre Villas-Boas who, while hailing a "logical" decision by the government, added soberly: "The survival of the clubs depends on it. In France, arguably even more than anywhere else, the money is a pressing issue. The current TV rights deal is due to expire at the season's end with the new contract, largely financed by Mediapro, worth 60% more, tipping the Ligue 1 clubs' pot over the 1bn euros (£0.
MANCHESTER, England, March 8 (Reuters) - There was no shortage of reasons for Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to be smiling after Sunday's 2-0 derby win over Manchester City at Old Trafford -- and smile he did. The victory over the champions completed United's first home and away Premier League double over City in a decade, moved Solskjaer's side up to fifth and extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to 10 games.
This was a great example of how someone deals with the pressure of that sort of game - at half-time and how he would speak to the players. What I saw was someone with immense experience, who spoke in a very calm way and dealt with the facts. He gave information but not too much and in a way that would help that players and give them confidence. The players went out in the second half, calm and controlled, and played a very good game and went on to win the final.
It was especially cruel that, at the start of the 2003-04 season, when he was finally a regular, Solskjaer suffered the knee injury that kept him out for the best part of three years. The Bayern goal did not earn Solskjaer the adoration of United fans; it validated what they had seen for the previous two and a half years.
Injury histories are something that are very difficult for clubs to get hold of," says Jacobson. They will either refer to the database directly or call us and say: 'This guy had an injury and he was out for this period, do you know what the injury was?' Or even: 'We can't find any information about this player, has he ever been out injured?'"View more on twitterHow do clubs use the database?The game uses scouts across the world with far more access to players than professional clubs, even at the highest levelThe detailed analysis of each individual is so comprehensive clubs trust the database and the rankings awarded to each playerClub analysts can use the database to highlight sought after attributes - age, height, teenagers playing regular first-team football, for example - without leaving their officeThen they can use tools such as Wyscout or Inscouts to view players, or even compare them to members of the club's own squad, before making a decision on whether to send a scout to watch themIt is some journey for a game first released in 1992 and born from Everton-supporting brothers Paul and Ov Collyer looking to entertain themselves at school.

Jamshedpur will host North East United for this fixture of the league. Perhaps, the hosts have better chance on the home ground. Jamshedpur is one of the ambitious team in this campaign. However, this will not be an easy task for the hosts. In any case, they will have to invest a great effort in this game. Also, I expect, the visitors wil ltry to provide a strong resistance. North East Utd are undefeated in their last 5 matches. I think, the visitors have the motivation to stay in the race for higher range. They will try to make a positive result. My pick - NorthEast United to win.
'Correct Score' punters can try a 1-0 win for Steven Gerrard's men. Recent renewals of this fixture have tended to be quite tight, low-scoring affairs.

At the 32nd round of the Spanish national championship, at the Wanda Metropolitano, Atletico Madrid players will welcome Deportivo Alaves. The current form of the home team is very high, while the guests are constantly losing in recent rounds. The 1-0 victory over the Levante players also at home last weekend was the third consecutive victory of teachers and coaches Diego Simeone. It is also the 9th round in a row unbeaten of the home team. Over 31 rounds, the home team got 55 points after 14 victories, 13 draws and 4 losses, ranking 3rd in the table. Just having to face Alaves in the next round, the chances of getting the 3 points of the home team will be huge as the last 8 confrontations they have won 5 victories and have never lost to the opponent.
Serena Williams has made a strong start to the new year and that record breaking Grand Slam victory might be just a few weeks away. Williams has been in good form all week and was particularly impressive in her semi-final. Pegula hasn't got a great deal of experience of going deep into tournaments on the main circuit with a lot of her success being on the ITF circuit. She has been in good form this week but the tip here is for Williams to beat her 2-0.

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.
Romero repelled Neto with his feet when the Portuguese teenager collected Adama Traore's pass and created a space for a shot on the edge of the area after half-time, by which point the visitors were still to have a shot on target. They did have a penalty claim for a foul on Brandon Williams by Leander Dendocker, although the video assistant referee confirmed on-field official Paul Tierney's decision not to award itJuan Mata drifted a free-kick just wide and Rashford hit the bar when the ball looped up after Coady slid in to block 19 minutes from time, but Wolves keeper John Ruddy had still not made a save of note even then.

I was watched both times after brake of Corona Virus, Union Berlin and they are played better first match, than second. In first one, they are played at home against Bayern and they are solid, but at the end, Bayern was just better team and beat them "just" 2-0. In match after that, they are played big city derby against Hertha and lost even 0-4. All four goals, Hertha is scored in second half. This team must be better in attack and Mainz is ideal rival for something like that. I see here at least three goals, and maybe even more than that.

Bourg-Péronnas have a tremendous home record which they'll be looking to put to good use here against a shaky Lyon side. They've lost just one of their 13 matches at the Stade Marcel-Verchu00e8re under Karim Mokeddem which makes us think that they could pose Lyon a problem here.
Liverpool need just four wins from their remaining 10 games to guarantee their first league title for 30 years. It is always nice to get a trophy," said Sterling.

If you are not winning trophies you will finish the season very disappointed.

The visitors have had to settle for a share of the spoils on eight occasions this season, which on it’s own isn’t a particularly high total. However, six of those eight draws have come whilst on the road and although they are currently on an eight match undefeated run, it is noticeable that four of those eight matches have resulted in both sides taking a point.
