Porto resume their season and have a one-point lead at the top of the table. They were in top form before the suspension and haven't lost an away league game since the first one of the season. They ended the good start that Famalicao made to the season and can again show their superiority.

Smith's wild lunge on Costa handed Leeds a chance from the spot which Klich converted with ice-cold precision and Leeds moved up a gear after the restart as Costa caught the defence napping to slot home. They were unlucky not to be completely out of sight as Bamford hit the bar and forced a smart near-post save from Jack Butland, while Kalvin Phillips fizzed a shot over from 18 yards. Cooper's third before the hour mark was definitive, smashing in off the post after Hernandez crept in behind the Stoke defence, and the provider turned scorer to sidefoot the killer fourth as Bielsa's Whites turned on the style.
Home side does not have big intention to play Cup with the full lineup and the top power in the team, especially at this time, when there could be some transfers and possibly change in the roster. Olympiakos is back in the top tier and they play good, with the tough performance in the defensive line.

I ended up playing there for five or six years and looking back playing there from 30-35 was probably the most enjoyable part of my career. I really enjoyed that position, I wasn’t scoring goals but to sit back and control games, I really enjoyed it. I finished with England too early to progress in that position. I was tempted to come back, you’d hear whispers all the time but there was only the one time really officially.
Guardiola: Rodgers has made Leicester title rivals Brendan Rodgers has made Leicester Premier League title rivals, says Pep Guardiola. While Guardiola's champions were held to a frustrating 2-2 draw at Newcastle United at the weekend, leaving them 11 points behind leaders Liverpool, Leicester secured a last-gasp 2-1 win over Everton the following day to cut the gap to eight.
I believe that odds on this match tomorrow will be smaller and I will take this bet earlier, on goals, what is pretty ok, and very real. So, Maritimo U23 is in last round lost in league even 0-4, and in the same time, they are played in last three matches with three or more goals, 0-4, 1-2 and 3-2. Rival, or in this case Vitoria Setubal is similar team who is won in last round 4-0 and they are team who is in last period almost in all matches with three or more goals. Over is ok for me.

Real Madrid head to this game not just on a good run in the league and recent matches, they also have a dominant run over Athletic Club and they will be further motivated by a good showing in the El Classico. They are unbeaten in 12 matches and have not lost to Athletic Club in the last eight meetings. They have a great run at home, and face a side that has really struggled away from home. In their last nine matches, Real Madrid have trailed just twice but came back to salvage the situations. They have scored in the first half in five of their last nine matches and scored in the second half in eight of the nine. Based on this, we believe Real Madrid have what it takes to lead in both halves against Athletic Club and that will be our bet.
It is a result that fulfils the usual minimum requirement of Champions League qualification for Manchester United. But while Leicester City's fifth-placed finish is highly creditable and earns a place in the Europa League, this will undoubtedly be a huge disappointment and anti-climax after being in a position to reach the Champions League for so long. It will be scant consolation for them that striker Vardy will claim the Golden Boot, as the Premier League's top scorer with 23 goals.

Not Mikel Arteta, who retains a certain aura around him after having been close to landing the job 18 months ago, accruing extensive experience as assistant to Pep Guardiola and retaining some credibility despite captaining Arsenal through one of the more difficult periods of the Wenger era.

He is the best all-round midfielder in the world," said United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who admits that it can be tricky to designate a precise midfield duty for the former Juventus player.
