City are huge favourites to prolong their winning streak against Southampton this weekend, though they will line up against a very different Saints side to the one they annihilated 9-0 at St. Mary's in an incredible Premier League battering in late-October.
Manchester City make the short journey to rivals Manchester United on Sunday. The two sides have already met three times this season with City winning in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg at Old Trafford, while United won the second leg and the Premier League game at the Etihad. Since the Premier League began in 1992, 14 players have scored three or more goals in Manchester derbies. How many of them do you think you can name? You've got five minutes.
Scoring goals has seemingly come naturally to this side of late, especially at home, where they've notched ten in their last four (in all competitions) and have only failed to score in one of their last nine. Unfortunately, clean sheets have been few and far between during that time, while they haven't exactly kept opposing goals down to a minimum, shipping nine in their last five at Pirelli Stadium. Their scoring form bodes well ahead of the visit of MK Dons, but their defensive form does not.

Their journey to the semi-final was not only the football team's greatest achievement, but a voyage which gave Wales, as a nation, the recognition it had never enjoyed before. This weekend was meant to mark the start of Wales' Euro 2020 campaign but the tournament's postponement means they will have to wait to rekindle the euphoria of 2016. Once that opportunity arrives next summer, in Bale they will have the ultimate figurehead, a true legend.
Encounters between Newcastle and Palace tend to be tight, with the teams sharing the points in two of their last three meetings. The Magpies finished level with their visitors in four of their last seven home matches, and we think Palace's recent unbeaten run should galvanise them sufficiently to avoid defeat again.

I don't see that term further defined in the regulations, nor is there reference of that being at the conclusion of a season," he said. If [the SPFL] have financial or other reasons which is encouraging them to call or declare their league, there would be, on the basis of that criteria, an argument to say the final standing is based on sporting merit. Against that, there is a difficulty for them as they will be seemingly doing it in the teeth of Uefa opposition.
After narrowly avoiding relegation by just 3 points last season, little was expected of El Entag El Harby coming into this campaign.

However, the wheels have started to shake over the last month or so. It started with a rather expected 2-1 loss to Manchester City, but their 1-0 capitulation at home to Bournemouth last weekend leaves them looking back on four defeats in their last five Premier League matches.

You might already have a picture in your head of players to the left and the right but he flicked it up to perfection and then to get the accuracy on the swivel, it was stunning. Wright: "The beauty of this goal was that Gary Neville was so tight and he had to improvise like he did. It is why he is so great and why people pay their money to see him. He flicked it up and volleyed it in the corner. Magnificent.
Porto have been able to score well against this team the past 5 times they have played them. They have also been able to score well against them as well. Scoring goals should not be a problem with them in this match either. Playing away might make the total lower but there is still a good chance of seeing the 2 goals scored by the away team. They are so strong all over the ground and have been able to find ways to nearly always score with high amounts of balls being put into the box by their team
Given the form of both sides, we expect another close game when they meet this weekend. While the Royals are a little light up front, Birmingham have problems of their own. The visitors have seen under 2.5 goals in 60% of their away trips this term, while their main attacking threat could be shut down here.

Mikel Arteta has been appointed Arsenal's new manager and, while he may appear something of a novice to many, those who know him well say it is a moment he started preparing for more than 20 years ago. Even in his early playing days at Barcelona's academy, in 1997, he was showing the kind of leadership skills which made him a distinctive figure. He has left his mark everywhere he has been since then, not merely as a player but also as a major influence on the team, both on and off the pitch.
We expect Luton’s troubles to continue, with Fulham looking strong.

This is a fixture that so often provides plenty of goals with both teams scoring in three of the pairs’ last six meetings and over 2.5 goals being scored in five of those matches.

Aston Villa's Premier League survival feels better than when they were promoted last season, says manager Dean Smith. A draw at West Ham was enough to keep Villa up with Watford and Bournemouth joining Norwich in the Championship.

It's a magnificent achievement," said Smith.
His throw was headed clear towards Beckham, one of the few players on the pitch who still looked fresh. He beat Scholl to the loose ball and then evaded his attempted challenge before playing a good pass to release United’s left-winger: Gary Neville. He was still in position from the throw-in; as he ran towards the ball and prepared to cross with his left foot, every step betrayed a furious concentration not to cock it up.
Aaron Ramsey1,3284332Mesut Ozil1,9925398. I don't think Ozil has been used in the right manner at Arsenal. He can be Marmite - a super, super talent who can frustrate you at times. Arsenal fans know that and they know his vulnerabilities. He's not a player that will appear to put his body on the line, but people underestimate the work rate and confidence to always want to be in possession of the ball.
