In contrast, fans of their French counterparts were to bring a carnival atmosphere to Glasgow. Neutrals, meanwhile, were gearing up for what they hoped would be a match reminiscent of the only other European Cup final that had taken place in the stadium at that time - the legendary 7-3 win for Real Madrid in 1960. The atmosphere was incredible," Roth remembers. Hampden was sold out and in the last seconds before the game, I think every player had goosebumps.
Arsenal have now won just one of their last 11 Premier League matches, a run that has pushed them down to 11th in the table and eight points adrift of the top four. In fact, they’re closer to the relegation zone than they are to Champions League qualification; a stark reminder of how dire the situation is at the Emirates.
Nathan Jones' spell in charge simply didn't go to plan but the team are at least showing some improvement under new boss Michael O'Neill. Indeed, since he has arrived at the bet365 Stadium, Stoke have won 3 of their 6 matches; more than they managed in the previous 15 games prior. A 3-0 win over Luton in midweek has confidence boosted in home ranks and they'll come into Saturday's game hungry for victory

Neil Lennon's side won 11 of their 12 domestic matches after the winter break in January, having ceded the advantage in the title race to Rangers with Old Firm defeat in the final game of 2019. Another title would give Celtic a ninth in a row for the second time in their history, while Rangers have also achieved the feat once. Ten would be incredible but we take it one game at a time, we take it one season at a time," Brown added.
Wolves are the first team to keep a Premier League clean sheet away against both Manchester clubs in a season since Chelsea in 2013-14. This was Wolves' first 0-0 draw in the Premier League since the opening weekend against Leicester, while it was just their third in total in 63 Premier League games under Nuno Espirito Santo. Bruno Fernandes had more shots (5), more shots on target (3) and made more passes (88) than any other United player .
Aves have lost their last nine matches and have conceded the opening goal in 73% of their games this season, so it’s hard to see the visitors turning their form around against a Moreirense side that have only lost once in their own backyard so far.

We had a very difficult game at home against Chelsea (a 4-1 loss) and we know how strong they are," Hasenhuettl said. They struggled a little bit before the Tottenham game but it would be interesting to see what shape they will use. They played with a back five and it worked well against Tottenham.

Cardiff, 12th in the Championship, went ahead for the first time through Murphy's volley in first-half injury time and the game looked finished when Flint scored his second early after the restart. But McKirdy pulled one back from Thomas' cross, although Ward put Cardiff 4-2 ahead in the 57th minute. However, a great strike from McKirdy in the 64th minute gave him his second goal, Carlisle their third and his team 26 minutes plus injury time to find a goal that would have taken the tie to extra-time.

Four of the clubs deeply involved in the scrap to stay up are in action with Brighton and Hove Albion and Watford facing each other at the Amex Stadium on Saturday in a 'six pointer'. Brighton are in 15th place having won just one of their last 10 Premier League games and are just two points above the drop-zone while Watford's mini-revival under Nigel Pearson has stuttered and they find themselves back in 19th place, with only bottom club Norwich City below them.
Blackburn Rovers is ranked 11th in the rankings with 40 points. Coach Tony Mowbray's team played a bit better than last season, although Blackburn Rovers is in the middle of the table, but with only 6 points behind the 6th place, Blackburn Rovers can completely hope for the top 6 race.
You can stick Mike Ashley’s Sports Direct in the latter category, after their parent company declared that, even after Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s (far too late) instruction that all non-essential shops should be shut down, they plan to stay open, putting their staff in an impossible position and risking their health, as well as that of the general public.

Zaha played with an injury and it was touch and go if he was going to be on the field. It would be unlikely if we would do that to him again on Sunday,” Hodgson added. We would want to put more resources into the FA Cup if we had them.

English football was more democratic back then, which meant United had to fight for everything. From the famous January FA Cup tie against Liverpool onwards, they played 43 hours of football spread across 28 matches. And during those 2580 minutes, they were almost always living on their nerves. Only 318 minutes were spent with a cushion of more than one goal - and over a third of those minutes came in the fraught Champions League tie against Internazionale, when a two-goal lead felt anything but secure.
I surely believe in goals in this match from Portuguese second league and I will try that option. I was wrote a lot of times about this amazing team, of course I mean on Benfica B, and I will repeat some facts. They are team who is playing without any pressure and they will continue that way and today, at least I believe in that. So, Benfica B is in last four matches played with four or more goals at home and in last one at home, they are won 4-0. It will be similar and in this one, I'm sure.

LONDON, Feb 12 (Reuters) - If Leeds United seem nervous that their Premier League promotion bid will unravel as it has done so often, their jitters were embodied by Kiko Casilla's blunder in Tuesday's 1-1 draw at Brentford in the Championship.

We've seen reports like this before but it seems like we are further down the line this time in terms of ending that 13-year tenure of Mike Ashley which everyone wants to see the end of.
They might have done it. I went straight from London to the King Power after calling my dad, live on air. There were tears cleaning the London dust off my shoes.
