Watford v Everton *Since losing at Watford in the league last February, Everton have won two games against the Hornets in all competitions - once in the league and once in the League Cup. After a run of 12 home league games without a win, Watford have won three of their last four under new manager Nigel Pearson.
The home team Monchengladbach held host Leipzig with 2-2 to help this team not be abandoned in the race to the Bundesliga championship this season. They are currently in the fourth position on the table with 4 points less than the team currently headed by Bayern Munich. In this round, Monchengladbach will be back home to host Hoffenheim and a victory will surely help the team continue to chase the top 1 and they will keep a place in the group to participate in the Champions League next season. On the other side of the line, Hoffenheim was not in good shape when losing to Wolfsburg at home with a score of 2-3
Their only loss at home in that run – and in the Championship season to date – came against West Brom. The Baggies hit a penalty winner in added time to steal a 1-0 win, the only blemish on a great record for Preston at Deepdale this term. With their home form pushing them into the promotion picture, they’ll be glad to return here on Tuesday.
I thought we outplayed them," said Robinson. I don't know what the stats are but we created good chances, even in the first half. Their first goal is a worldie and the third is an outstanding finish. It is all ifs and buts unfortunately but I am really proud of my players. Man of the match - Allan Saint-Maximin (Newcastle) The game needed a moment of magic to decide it and Allan Saint-Maximin provided itReplay joy again for Newcastle - the statsNewcastle have won their last five FA Cup replays, scoring 17 goals across those victories.
Bochum and Hamburger will face each other in the upcoming match in the Second Bundesliga. Bochum this season have the following results: 4W, 8D and 7L. Meanwhile Hamburger have 9W, 7D and 3L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Miami Heat are having another strong month, particularly at home. They take on Indiana Pacers who owe their good season record to their home results. Away form isn't so promising as was seen in the heavy loss at Milwaukee this month. Go for Miami Heat to get the win in this game.
BOTTOM TEAMS TURN THE TABLES Bottom side Norwich City had reason to celebrate when they beat third-placed Leicester City on Friday to close the gap on those above them but their joy was short-lived as both West Ham United and Watford climbed out of the relegation zone. West Ham accomplished the double over Southampton, winning 3-1 at home with Saints boss Ralph Hasenhuettl describing the goals his side conceded as an "absolute joke".
The seventh placed side in the Premier League would normally qualify for the Europa League, but the two places above seventh would not need to start their Europa League games until mid-September. By giving up the seventh spot, that would allow the Premier League to delay the start of next season's, er, season.
The Croatian 31-year-old was injured during a challenge with team mate Alvaro Odriozola and had to be taken off the pitch in a golf cart. Ivan has an ankle bone fracture. That means it will take four weeks until it fully heals. After that there also be rehabilitative training," Flick said. It was initially a bit of a shock because he was good for us with his dynamism.

Brest had a good win at the weekend going to Neman Grodno and coming away with a 4-2 victory. They were 3-0 up inside 55 minutes but hung on despite having a player sent off. The win took them up to 12 points and only four off the top of the table. Three of their games have been won but only 12 goals scored in eight matches, six coming in that most recent victory.
Daniel James doubled the lead in the 58th when he side-stepped his marker and buried a crisp low shot into the bottom corner, leaving keeper Alexander Schlager rooted to the spot. Juan Mata made it 3-0 with a clinical finish from 10 metres after 82 minutes before late substitutes Mason Greenwood and Andreas Pereira put the icing on the cake in stoppage time.
Of those successful crosses - defined as when a Liverpool player got on the end of them - only three found a team-mate inside the Atletico area. The other yellow arrows shown above illustrate a key pass. I think a few of Liverpool's players will be disappointed with their performances, but I also think they will deal with any criticism in the right way. If you look at the team's rise in the past few years, they have always dealt with any setback in the right way, and I don't think things will be any different with this defeat.
Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti says he "did not disrespect" the referee despite being sent off following a disallowed goal at the end of his team's 1-1 draw with Manchester United. Ancelotti went onto the pitch at full-time to confront Chris Kavanagh after Dominic Calvert-Lewin's injury-time strike was ruled out for offside by the video assistant referee. Gylfi Sigurdsson was lying offside in front of United goalkeeper David de Gea when the goal was scored, leading VAR to rule it out.

That's left them in fifth place and they host Slavia Mozyr who are 10th in the table. Dinamo Brest won the title last season by five points but had to come from behind against Smolevich to get a 1-1 draw in their opener. They got off the mark for the season with a 1-0 win at Slutsk. Dinamo are now unbeaten in their last 22 competitive games and no losses in their last nine home league matches.
Huddersfield Town will host Queens Park Rangers for this fixture of the league. Both teams are not very good teams in this league. I believe, Huddersfield have have a very difficult task in this game. In any case, the hosts will have to invest a great effort in this game. Also, we have QPR who's is a very unpredictable team. They have two consecutive losses. However, the visitors have a more offensive team. I expect, they tend to score a goal. So, the visitors have an effective attack. I think, QPR will closer to victory. Of course, this will not be an easy job.
Defeat on Sunday has left Luton second-bottom in the Championship, with the club completely outclassed by Bristol City. Their thumping 3-0 loss to a side on a four-game losing run should really say it all for this Luton side right now. The visitors coming into this clash with four defeats in five, while they’ve lost 16 of 25 this season.
The season began slowly for Bayern Munich and at one point they weren't even in the Champions League places. They have made up for lost time though winning match after match in all competitions. Their lead at the top is four points and a win in Dortmund would take them a massive step towards winning the Bundesliga. Away form is strong and the goals keep on coming. Dortmund are chasing hard and will be difficult to beat but the bet here is on an away victory.
Eintracht Frankfurt and Freiburg will face each other in the upcoming match in the German Bundesliga. Eintracht Frankfurt this season have the following results: 8W, 4D and 13L. Meanwhile Freiburg have 10W, 7D and 9L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Lawro's prediction: 3-0Tolu's prediction: It depends who plays of course, but City have got so many players who can win a game for them. Tranmere v Man UtdLeague One (21st)vPremier League (5th)Who did they beat?3R: Watford (PL) Hr3R: Wolves (PL) Hr2R: Chichester City (NL) H1R: Wycombe (L1) ArTranmere's pitch at Prenton Park is horrendous, and they have done brilliantly to get this far, but I still think United will win.
As they so often do, Reims are fancied to win this fixture in low-scoring fashion. Punters can profit by siding with 'Reims to Win & Under 3.5 Goals'. Strasbourg's record on the road points towards them struggling against a very sturdy host. While the visitors have struggled for goals on the road, scoring in only two out of nine, the hosts have kept teams quiet, keeping a clean sheet in 50% of their matches. We shouldn't expect Reims to run riot, though. After all, more than three goals have gone in in just one of their ten home games this term, while only two of Strasbourg's away games have involved four or more goals.
It will be very interesting to watch this match from Dutch Cup and I believe that home team will be better, because they are generally better team than rival. If I remember correctly this team is won in last three matches in a row, and what is very interesting, they can fight and for the cup, but also and for the title in Dutch elite league, after few mistakes who is make Ajax in meantime. I see here at least three or four goals and I believe that home team will win. For me, that is more than ok and real.

And how he came good in that vital extra period, drawing fine saves from Oxford keeper Eastwood before producing that decisive contribution with a fierce shot that broke the hearts of the home side and spared Newcastle's blushes as they threatened to throw away a game they had under their control. The Toon Army celebrated at the final whistle - and the toast was Saint-Maximin. Oxford take pride - now for promotion Oxford manager Robinson described this FA Cup fourth-round replay as "a free hit" but he and his players will still be bitterly disappointed to come so close to penalties only to be thwarted by a moment of brilliance from Saint-Maximin.

They’re facing an Adelaide United side who have won their last 3 at Coopers Stadium and scored 8 times in the process, so we’re optimistic about the chances of a high scoring home win here.

With the scores level after extra-time, how do you decide who goes through to the quarter-finals? Penalties? A replay? No. The referee took the two captains, Celtic's McNeill and Mario Coluna of Benfica, into his dressing room for a coin toss. McNeill called heads, it landed on heads. He was then informed that round was merely for the right to toss the actual coin. He stuck to his guns. Heads again.

United to seal Sancho signing Manchester United are "confident" of signing Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho this summer, according to the Mirror. The England international has impressed during his time in the Bundesliga and now a transfer away from Germany is looking likely this summer.

We've all still got to play seven games, if we play like this it's really not nice to play against us. I have to watch the game tomorrow because we play them one week later.

Relegated Bournemouth have accepted a £40m bid from Manchester City for defender Nathan Ake. It is understood there is an additional £1m in add-ons as part of the deal. Netherlands international Ake, 25, joined Bournemouth in 2017 for a club record fee and has made 121 appearances for the Cherries. Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has been targeting at least one centre-back to bolster his squad next season and Ake has been a target for a while.
And over here I Will try with a little surprise by the odds but in reality chances for both teams to win are pretty much the same because just 1 point is between them in the league table and also they are in pretty much similar shape so I decided to go with the Bradford because Colchester shape does not look that good as the number are telling and I feel like they avoid defeat so many times recently, so tonight I think they can't do it again but even if they do I m sure they Will not win the game
Crawley Town are far from in form and they have just one win in their last eight league matches. Unsurprisingly, this run of form has seen the hosts drop down the table and although they looked good in the early rounds of the season, they now appear to be in a battle in mid-table. Although they cannot be counted on for the win this weekend, they have earned 67% of their points at home so will be hopeful of a positive result. However, they have failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last 10 matches and have seen both teams score in 78% of their league games, so they know that there is much work to be done in order to reverse their current fortunes.
Both clubs are in need of points as they bid to avoid relegation. Villa are in deep trouble but Brighton are struggling for form and on the slide. Neither side is great at keeping clean sheets but both average over a goal a game. A bet on over 2.5 goals is the tip for this basement battle.
Media playback is not supported on this device Commentary - Thierry Henry scores on Arsenal return"My best FA Cup memory was down to another one of my top Arsenal players, Aaron Ramsey, who scored the winner against Hull in the 2014 final when we came back from 2-0 down to win 3-2. I was heartbroken when Ramsey left - I had to un-follow him on Instagram, and then re-follow him again a bit later - but it has been painful to see a lot of our star players leave to be honest.

I want to be a good person, a great footballer and someone who gives back. Last week, 12 months on from his own diagnosis, Taylor returned to The Christie cancer hospital in Manchester. There were a few young lads in there, football fans. Jesse [Lingard] gave me a shirt to take in for a little lad called Kieran.
In the 'Correct Score' market, a 1-1 draw stands out as a viable option. Neither side have thrived offensively, but they've tended to score the odd goal, while they've both conceded exactly once in 50% of their respective home and away matches.
GOAL! Leganes 1-2 Barcelona: Vidal scores what could be the winner for Barca! But it comes in controversial fashion. Dembele's corner delivery takes a deflection and rolls kindly into the path of Vidal at the near post. He cannot believe his luck and finishes with aplomb. Leganes are demanding for the offside flag to be raised but VAR sees the ball hit off Perez and therefore the goal stands! KEY STATS Barcelona are the first side to win three times against Leganes at Butarque in LaLiga (W3 D0 L1).
I don't give them much hope of an upset because they are away from home and are in a relegation scrap in the National League, but this tie is a reward for their fans who have followed their rise up the non-league pyramid. Some people might see Sheffield United as dark horses for the FA Cup this season but I actually think they will have bigger fish to fry in terms of their league position, and focusing on finishing as high as possible in the Premier League.
Nice were close to cutting ties with manager Patrick Vieira a few months ago when results weren't going their way despite huge investment from the new owners. However, things look back on the up for le Gym now with four wins in their last six matches. They've scored 13 goals and conceded six in this time which is rather good form but the standard of opponent hasn't been overly high which could hold them back here. Three of their recent wins have come against Toulouse and Metz who are both in the bottom four of Ligue 1 as well as fourth-tier Frejus.
