Luton Town will host Charlton Athletic for this fixture of the league. I expect, this will be tense match for both sides. Both teams have a poor results in the last matches. However, Charlton have better team than their opponent. They are currently on the 13th place with 23 points. In previous game Charlton played in a 2-2 draw with Cardiff City. Also, we have Luton Town who's is one of the teams of relegation zone. Luton are currently on the 22th place with 14 points. Hosts have fallen into a very poor show. They have five consecutive losses. Of course, the hosts will try to break the poor series. However, they have a very vulnerable defense. My pick: Charlton to win.
After five years in charge Mauricio Pochettino's spell as Tottenham manager has come to an abrupt halt. The international break is always a worrying time for a manager under pressure but despite Spurs' disappointing start to the season - they are currently 14th in the Premier League - not many saw this sacking coming. After all, Pochettino is the the man who led Tottenham to the Champions League final last season.
Losing him was tough," said Gibbs-White of Regis, who died on 14 January 2018 at the age of 59. He played a massive part in black culture. Some of the stories he told me… a lot of stuff, bad stuff. But he came out of it. He was the benchmark, the role model to look up to - he told me how he dealt with things. Once his playing career finished, Regis spent time helping charitable causes both at home and abroad, and when he died the Cyrille Regis Legacy Trust was launched.
Hamilton Academical head coach Brian Rice: "I'm feeling disappointed to come up here and battle the way we did and to lose a sloppy goal - it's fine margins in this league.

I can't ask any more of the boys - they are sweating blood in that shirt and I'm so disappointed for them.

The hosts are on 3rd place in this ending of the season but with 40 points they are really just one point above the 4th placed Noah who also has the possibility to play in the Europa League via the cup as they reached the final of that competition after winning with Urartu in the semis winning both legs actually. And I watched in this group stage when Noah hosted Alashkert at home and they dominated the game from start to finish and won it with ease 1-0 in the end.
MOURINHO'S MOANING DOES SPURS NO FAVOURS Solskjaer's upbeat approach contrasts starkly with the reign of his predecessor Jose Mourinho at Old Trafford and despite talk of a new approach from the Portuguese manager the same negativity seems to have followed him to Tottenham.

He's doing what it says on the tin and what we asked for when we signed him. He'll improve, he'll get sharper and more used to us. I have no doubt," Solskjaer told a news conference. He has a physical presence. You can get the ball up to him and he can keep hold of it. It's hard to be a central defender against him when he's looking for you first and he buys himself half a yard just by that movement.

Megan Rapinoe says the US Women's National Team "don't buy" the apology from US Soccer president Carlos Cordeiro for the "pain" and "offence" caused by language used in a law suit over equal pay. World champions the United States won the SheBelieves Cup following an entertaining 3-1 win over Japan on Wednesday. The players turned their tops inside out during the warm-up to hide their badges, leaving only the four stars which represent their World Cup success on show.
Their main thing this season is their goal-scoring. We can clearly see that they are trying to score a goal more in every game, as they have already netted 24 goals while conceding 18. Their defense needs a lot of improving. This game will be one of the toughest for them this season, as they are coming to play against the defending champions. Christian Gytkjaer is playing great, being the second-best player in the league in scoring with 8 goals and 1 dished assist by his name, so far.
Watford gained the upper hand and did not let go as Newcastle faded badly, their fate sealed by Manquillo's unwise decision to tangle with Sarr as the Watford forward raced into the danger zone late on. Given all the pre-season pessimism, and the lukewarm reception he received after succeeding the popular Rafael Benitez on Tyneside, Bruce has done a highly respectable job in consolidating Newcastle, especially with takeover talk a constant sub-plot to his work these days.
Players and staff would be present in the enclosure, but no fans or reporters would be allowed, according to La Repubblica.

James's Park. The Magpies are unbeaten in their last three games, mostly thanks to their habit of scoring stoppage-time goals to salvage points.

Burnley U23 and Sheffield Utd U23 will face each other in the upcoming match in the Professional Development League. Burnley U23 this season have the following results: 8W, 8D and 1L.

Norwich are firmly the underdogs here; they have no win in their last five home matches and they have the most losses in the league so far. On the other hand, Wolves are on a good run and have not lost in the last six away matches in the league, though four of these have ended in draws. Wolves have much better quality and have been scoring consistently. They have scored two or more goals in six of their last 10 while Norwich have conceded two or more goals in 11 of their last 15. While Norwich have been poor defensively, they have scored in each of their last five matches, and on the flipside, Wolves have no clean sheet in their last seven away matches. Also, Norwich have seen five of their last 10 matches end in over 2.5 goals. The same is the case for six of Wolves’ last 10 matches. Based on these stats, the best pick is on Wolves to win, but a pick of both sides to score, with the game ending in over 2.5 goals comes with better odds.

Arsenal's 49-match streak is beatable this season but matching AC Milan's remarkable 58-game run without a Serie A loss from 1991-1993 still looks a distant prospect. To emulate that great Milan side would require Liverpool to go unbeaten in the Premier League until November. Even to break the British record looks a daunting task with Celtic's 62-match unbeaten league run between 1915 and 1917 looking untouchable.
Is the race for the top four now a race for the top five?Heading into this weekend's games, Chelsea had a two-point advantage over Sheffield United in the battle for the fourth Champions League place. It is not entirely clear what will happen if City are excluded but if Uefa decide to retain England's four spots and the team in fifth gets the spare one, a fascinating battle will be in process. From Sheffield United in fifth to Crystal Palace in 14th, there are just nine points separating 10 teams.
There has certainly been some entertainment in the home sides games this season as Ludogorets have both scored and conceded nine times in their five games. They’ll certainly need to shore up their defence in they have hopes of progressing deep into the tournament.
I have never heard a word from Abramovich: 'Let's get this ready for a sale,' or something," Buck told The Guardian "Because of the political situation, there are people who think they might want to buy Chelsea at a bargain.

Sporting Lisbon will make their way into the knock-out stages of the Europa League if winning this game.

Away results are poor too, so the tip here is for a home win.
