This fixture features No. 14 vs No. 17 in the league, Caen vs Le Mans. The hosts coming from a 1 - 1 away draw to Auxerre (no. 12 in the league) and their last home game a 2 - 1 win over Orleans. The visitors coming from a 0 - 0 home draw to Grenoble (No. 6 in the league) and their last away game a 0 - 1 win over Clermont Foot. The hosts should win this one as they played a higher table team than the visitors scoring one goal and conceding one goal to draw the match then won their last home game to a team below the visitors scoring multiple goals facing a team coming from playing a team above themselves and not scoring or conceding any goals to draw the match then winning their last away game to a team above the hosts so an over 2.5 is best to tip here.
Paper Round's view: It's a clever way of structuring a payment to their star player. Sporting have probably accepted that Fernandes will leave soon. Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur both held interest in the Portuguese over the summer, but Spurs' bid - which activated the bonus payment - was eventually rejected.
Leverkusen have scored in each of their last eight competitive games. Furthermore, Leverkusen have been very tough to keep quiet at BayArena this season. The home side have scored in nine of their 10 competitive home games this season.
Challenge tomorrow in Serie A between Bologna and Parma. The hosts have lost all their last three games, the most interesting thing though: more than 2.5 goals have been scored in 10 of their last 11 home games. Especially due to the weak defense: in fact, Bologna has always suffered at least one goal in all its last 7 games. In the last 3 games the goals conceded were always at least 2. Parma failed to win in 13 of their last 14 away games. Even though in the last 3 Parma matches less than 2.5 goals have been scored my prediction for this match is over 2.5 goals.
Greaves, who scored 266 league and cup goals for Spurs, began his career at Chelsea and also had spells at West Ham and AC Milan. He is fourth on the list of all-time England goalscorers, behind Wayne Rooney (53), Sir Bobby Charlton (49) and Gary Lineker (48). Greaves was part of England's 1966 World Cup-winning squad but originally missed out on a medal because he was injured during the tournament's group stage.
I expect very easy home win in this match from Dutch elite league and of course, I will bet on that option. So, Ajax is very powerful team who can beat any rival in this league. It is clear that they will today play against rival who is last on the table and who will be almost sure in second division next season. In last match at home, RKC is lost just 1-2 against Ajax, but this time, they will lost more than easy - I'm sure in that and I will bet on that option. -5,25 is ok here for me.
Paper Round’s view: Manchester United have made a habit of accruing centre-backs who have not quite made the grade since their last all-star pairing of Nemanja Vidic and Rio Ferdinand. While Maguire has not quite proved his worth as the most expensive player of his position in history, he could fare much better alongside a player with Koulibaly's pace.
The total cumulative TV audience for a month-long UEFA Euro (tournament) is more than 30 times that of the American Super Bowl," he said. The UEFA Champions League final is the most-watched annual football club event in the world. Should we be ashamed of this commercial success? Should we be ashamed that, together, we, the national associations, leagues and clubs, have made European football the greatest success story of modern-day sport?" Ceferin then listed the on-field success of European nations before insisting that the huge revenues were only justifiable if UEFA stuck to "purpose over profit" and continued to support grassroots football and social campaigns.
But he left Los Angeles last month and the Sun say sources in Italy are confident that he is going to re-sign for Milan imminently. Ibrahimovic spent two years with the Serie A outfit, initially on loan before sealing a permanent move and winning a league title. Paper Round’s view: Love him or hate him, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is box office wherever he goes.
Halsey said: "We've seen 21 or 22 goals ruled out through offside, but some of them have got to be given as goals because fans are paying a lot of money to watch. We don't want to see them ruled out for a toenail or hair. They are goals, and if it's taking so long to judge then you go with the on-field referee. We know technology isn't 100%, so where are they drawing these lines? They've been consistent, but it doesn't make it right.
March missed Brighton's best first-half opportunity, with the winger firing a close-range effort into the side netting after a sweeping move down the left. Brighton's miserable day was summed up by Lewis Dunk's goalbound header from a Mooy corner, which hit Seagulls forward Neal Maupay in the six-yard box before bouncing to safety. Man of the match - Gary Cahill (Crystal Palace) Palace captain Cahill was a defensive rock, winning the most aerial duels of any starting player'It's nice to break that hoodoo' - what they said Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson: "I'm very proud.
The lively 51-year-old kept them in the Premier League at the end of the 13/14 season before he was sacked five games into the following campaign. Tony Pulis (Free Agent) - Odds 20/1 The former Stoke, Crystal Palace, West Brom and Middlesbrough boss has made it known he wishes to make a return to management and if it is a dose of defensive organisation and toughness West Ham want then the Welshman would surely provide it.
Charlton guided his team to the last 16 at the next World Cup in the United States four years later, including a win over eventual finalists Italy in the group, before losing to the Netherlands. He was also awarded the freedom of the city of Dublin that year. He was awarded honorary Irish citizenship two years later. And it was the Netherlands who brought the curtain down on his time in charge when they beat the Republic Of Ireland 2-0 at Anfield in a play-off to reach Euro 96.

Crystal Palace v Sheffield United *Palace have scored a league-low five goals before halftime this season. After four straight draws, Crystal Palace suffered their eighth defeat of the season against Southampton in their last match to drop to 11th in the table. The eighth-placed Blades have won only one of their last five games and head into the contest on the back of a 1-0 defeat by champions Manchester City.
Daejeon facing Asian with odd odds, if we can put it this way. Last season we saw these two teams at Daejeon's stadium and for 2 times Asan took home 2 narrow wins, both times we had a 0 x 1 score. Comparing this year's odds with last season for the same event we can clearly see Asan is very underrated(God knows why). Maybe because of the 1st round results, it's the only explanation I see. I will still bet on a AH 0.5 for Asan, at 2,30 is very high valued. Confidence is high for this one, even considering the 1st round
These teams played each other four times over the last two seasons in Ligue 2 that they spent together with Brest winning twice and Lorient once. However, we're edging this one in favour of the lower division side. Lorient have a superb home record with four wins on the bounce at the Stade du Moustoir and with Brest winning just one of their last nine away games, including six losses, the hosts should be in the ascendancy here. Brest haven't been defensively secure in recent weeks so we're backing the home side to put two past them but with the visitors' relatively good record against les Merlus, we expect both teams to net here. We're backing a 2-1 win for the Ligue 2 side.

In the 23rd round of the Bundesliga, Hertha welcomes Koln. Hertha and Koln are in the relegation trouble as Hertha is ranked 13th with 26 points while Koln is 14`th with 23 points. Koln has a game at hand so they could move up the table. The problem is that they are one of the worst traveling teams and they have 2-1-7 away from home. Hertha is also quite poor at home with twice as many losses as they have won. But, recently they changed the coach and they got a valuable win away at Paderborn. I think Hertha will byte today and get that win .
