Stoke come into this one having seen over 2.5 goals scored in 80% of their away trips. Each of Luton’s last nine matches have seen over 2.5 goals land, while the hosts have seen at least three goals in 70% of their home games. We expect these two to produce another exciting clash, having seen Luton concede three times in three of their last four trips. As a result, over 2.5 goals is our pick for this game.

Assyriska was in the top level, not long ago, and they should be on the track to retain professional level in the next seasons. They are going to face Sylvia, which was in the third level, in the previous year, but which is still not in the complete of the lineup for the next season.
Even Craig Brown took a turn wheeling me. Discharging yourself from a Belgian hospitalJames McLeay (Belgium away, 16 October 2012)Me, my dad and brother had gone to a double-header against Wales and Belgium. Three days before we left, my dad had his gall bladder removed. He wasn't in the best of shape, but he said he was going. The night before the Belgium game, the three of us had gone to a party, but my dad had left early as he wasn't in the best of ways.
I am nobody to advise but sometimes to have a break, it was very positive for me. Humble' Mourinho goes on to respond with this when asked if Spurs' current form is down to their Champions League final defeat to Liverpool in June.

He's coming back to England very soon. He will have to follow some safety protocols because he is flying from Seoul," Mourinho said, referring to the coronavirus outbreak in South Korea which has seen the largest outbreak outside China.

I am picking real betis to grab all the three points though in the last five meeting Mallorca has 3 wins and losses. Mallorca haven't scored. In three of their last 8 home matches. Comparing the two Real betis in their last 5 match performance is better than Mallorca. Note the last season they last net which was 2014-15 Real betis dominated home and away. Though all the loss are coming away from home, I am still picking Real Betis because their losses are from high ranking teams only. Mallorca has losses from low ranking to high ranking this shows poor performance and currently I see Real Betis winning here
FC Crotone will be hoping for a win here to be able to monitor FC Frosinone who are 2nd with 46 points, FC Crotone are 3rd in the league with 43 points from 26 matches, scoring 43 goals against 32, with 2 straight home wins they come into this game hoping to extend the home win record of 3.
Hapoel Rishon Lezion is going to face Hapoel Ashkelon. The hosts are in second place in the league standings and today they are favorites to win. However, if we take a look at their last matches in the league they often lose points against teams like Ashkelon. They are struggling hard against the weaker team and that's why I see here a chance for points for Ashkelon. The visitors are in the bad situation as they got minus 9 points. They need points and I expect them to play with the high effort here against Lezion. My bet is Asian handicap +1 for Ashkelon

The penalty save by Lloris was one of the many turning points in this game against a Manchester City side that seemed to be in control from start to finish. However, from the moment Lloris saved the penalty and speedily recovered to stop Raheem Sterling from getting the rebound, his performance got better and better.

Paper Round’s view: That statement seems unambiguous from Ronaldo, meaning Juventus will likely see him start for the club when the new season begins. However they should be more concerned given Sarri’s recent history of causing upset with his squad - he was quickly turfed out at Chelsea despite securing Champions League football for the team.

It took until 1986/87 for the top league to be expanded to 12 teams, but that lasted only two campaigns. Then it swelled again to 12 in 1991/92 for a further three seasons until the advent of the fourth tier meant a return to a top 10 in 1994/95.

Rangers and Celtic are doing well in Europe, which is brilliant to see. I think we have a good level in the league at the minute. I understand Steven's comments but I don't particularly agree with them. Rangers and Celtic have a real obligation to make the Scottish league as strong as possible, as we all have. We have to live within our means to do that. Scottish football doesn't need saved but we all have an obligation to make it even better.
