He asked for more intensity and a higher tempo, and he got both - they just could not sustain it. They ran out of steam during the second half, and were forced so far back they were basically sitting on the edge of their own box. That meant they were short of ideas going forward too - when they did get possession they were much deeper, and they could not get as many men forward. Most of their second-half attacks were lone runners into a channel and they obviously threatened a lot less.
And won’t that be fun? 56 … that’s the magic number. Finally, some hard data. The Football League’s brain trust have tapped on their calculators, rattled their abaci, carried the seven … and come up with a number. That’s how many days they will need to complete the Championship, League One, and League Two seasons.
Middlesbrough have won by a single goal in each of their last three home matches, while each of their home successes this season has seen them edge it by a one-goal margin. Boro are fresh from a 2-1 win over Stoke, while Huddersfield have found the back of the net in each of their last 12 away league games since a 0-5 defeat to Liverpool in April. They last had a longer such scoring streak in August 2011 (15 games). With that form in mind, a 2-1 home win is our tip for this clash.

Lawro's prediction: 0-1Al's prediction: I have already come to terms with the fact that Liverpool are going to win the title.

Abha played 6 games at home so far this season from which 5 games in the first league level in this country and have a record of 4-2-0 at home so far so they are yet to taste defeat at home and have scored in all those home games, just that the guests have been a top team in Saudi Arabia last season and if I am not mistaken they won the cup in this country last season and want to keep their trophy and progress forward.

The majority of the team, including the staff, did very well. Courtney Sweetman-Kirk won by a landslide so she's clearly up to date with every type of music. I won't call out who didn't do so well but [physical performance coach] David Robshaw maybe needs to do a few burpees for a punishment.

They came close to doubling the tally six minutes into the second half but Jonathan Ikone's attempt from just inside the box crashed against the post.

The matches between this two are usually difficult and tight and not interesting and I expect that same scenario to happen tonight.
