And, with Napoli 3-0 up against Genk at half-time, a nervous second period looked a strong possibility for the holders. But then, on 57 minutes, Trent Alexander-Arnold set an attack in motion, and when Andy Robertson found Mane - formerly of Salzburg - Stankovic rushed out unnecessarily, over came the cross, and Keita - formerly of Salzburg - headed home.
One thing we can expect from this clash is action at both ends of the pitch. While West Ham’s defensive record at home is abysmal at the moment, they have managed to find the net themselves with regularity.

Pep Guardiola has the chance to shuffle his pack against Dinamo Zagreb with the weekend's trip to Arsenal in mind, though the eccentric Catalonian manager generally likes to avoid making wholesale changes to his starting XI.
MAN OF THE MATCH Maxi Gomez (Valencia): There were a number of standout performers for Valencia with Geoffrey Kondogbia particularly impressive in midfield.

Having only scored a single Premier League goal since his arrival from AC Milan during the summer, Cutrone rifled the ball home two minutes after being brought on in the 84th minute to put the game beyond doubt.

Worse than all of that, if a player were to die or forced into retirement as a result of the illness, then clubs could have to examine any insurance cover they have over their squads. They are not always comprehensively insured due to the costs of doing so. Further down the stream, the costs get more diffuse but no less critical.
However, in a fabulously contested Carabao Cup final it was Bravo who got the plaudits and was mobbed for his match-winning save. It's not easy when you're the understudy and not considered the best goalkeeper at the club. Nevertheless, Bravo proved his worth against Villa. I'm not entirely sure how Bravo got both hands to Bjorn Engels' header but he managed to push the Villa defender's effort against the post.
Did you know? Mina had taken 24 shots without scoring in the Premier League this season before putting away consecutive chances against Watford. Nathan Ake: When Nathan Ake plays for Bournemouth things usually happen. The Dutch defender has been an excellent purchase for Bournemouth and they need him now more than ever. Ake is a defender who is not afraid to put his body on the line for his team, or afraid to get among the goals if he has to, which is just as well because Bournemouth needed this result.
Van de Beek is still wanted by the Spanish club, who view him as a long-term replacement for 34-year-old Luka Modric.

Further efforts by Morelos, Steven Davis and Goldson were off target. The pressure intensified at the start of the second half as Morelos met a Borna Barisic delivery and headed against the crossbar and another Barisic cross presented James Tavernier with an opportunity that he blazed over on the stretch. View more on twitterHamilton had looked to willing runner Marios Ogkmpoe to ease the pressure on the defence and the striker's graft was almost rewarded when his header was pushed on to the bar by Allan McGregor.
Newport may have the second best defensive record in League Two but they have conceded in each of their last four and a total of five times in their last two. While Oldham are not the most prolific, they average 1.06 goals per game, however, given that they concede an average of two goals per game away from home, a 2-1 home win seems likely.

Of course I spoke with him about that," Mourinho said. But for me it was a quite easy conversation, because he was very sorry about that thing. It was never his intention to hurt, it was never his intention to offend. He immediately regretted and realised. It was a young guy mistake, a young generation mistake.

VAR INCREASES PRESSURE ON EVERTON'S SILVA If Everton manger Marco Silva fails to ride out the storm at Goodison Park he will rue the cruel moment VAR handed Leicester City their winner on Sunday. Everton were hanging on for a point at 1-1 when Kelechi Iheanacho ran through to score for Leicester in stoppage time, only to have his celebrations cut short by an offside flag.

We are a sustainable football club, we are profitable, we don't have debt, our accounts have been scrutinised many times, by auditors, by regulators, by investors and this is perfectly clear.
Busan will host Sangju Sangmu for this fixture of the league. I believe, both sides are very average teams in this league. Yeah, the hosts will try to capitalize advantage on their pitch. However, this will not be an easy task. In my opinion, they are not convincing team. Sangju Sangmu have better position in this new campaign. Also, the visitors have better results in the last matches. They are undefeated in their last 3 matches. However, Sangju Sangmu is not very good team away from home. In any case, the visitors will try to pick up at least one point. Maybe this is - draw.

These boys are tired; they are down on their knees. We're squeezing absolutely everything out of them, and they've been absolutely brilliant again," he said.

Slavia Mozyr will try their best in this game. The home side and the away side have two wins in their last matches played. Slavia being able to win BATE Borisov is a plus for them and taking on the home side in this game will be a lot easier for them. This game will have a scoreline of 1-1 0r 0-0 in this game also there will be less than 3 goals in this particular game. Slavia is a strong contending force to reckon with in this game and will not make things easy for the home side to take advantage of the game.

Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo is expected to make plenty of changes for Thursday's Europa League game against Beskitas at Molineux. The hosts have already secured their place in the last 32 and with a tough game against Tottenham to come on Sunday, Nuno is likely to rest a number of his first-team players. Youngsters Taylor Perry, Luke Cundle and Chem Campbell could feature. However, striker Raul Jimenez is unavailable through suspension.
The club are yet to respond officially. Another interesting element to the recruitment process at Tottenham is that, according to the Daily Mail, Mourinho was not top of the list. In fact, Brendan Rodgers was said to be Spurs chairman Daniel Levy's but he could not be lured away from Leicester. If that is the case, it seems wrong-headed, given that Mourinho and Rodgers could not be more different in their playing and man-management styles.
Ancelotti comes in when the club is at the top and then he takes them to the next level. So this is completely the opposite of that. I'm a big fan of him but this will be his toughest job yet. Yes, Everton will get a bounce, but I'm not sure about this appointment at all. Match of the Day pundit Alan Shearer on BBC Radio 5 Live: "Isn't it amazing that some people are asking questions about Ancelotti's record? I think it's a great coup for Everton to have him.
In his debut campaign at City, the gap was 15 points to Chelsea. On the first occasion it was the prelude to him quitting the Nou Camp because of the strain of it all. On the second, he spent £200m in a single summer to revolutionise a City team that went on to become the first to reach 100 points in a top-flight English season. And we already know Guardiola is going nowhere this summer. For, although there are a lot of uncertainties around City at the moment, he has already pledged to stay for the final year of his contract.
City 'hugely satisfied' with ruling - analysisSimon Stone, BBC SportPrivately, City are hugely satisfied with today's decision. For, while the verdict is being viewed as a major blow for the whole FFP concept, senior sources at the club insist their argument - and resistance to complying with the initial hearing - was because of opposition to the process they were being judged by, not the regulation itself.
Their opponents Manchester United, on the other hand, have only conceded two goals in their past 10 matches. Suddenly, Aaron Wan Bissaka, Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelof and Luke Shaw are looking like the great AC Milan defenders of the 1990s. Former Palace right-back Wan Bissaka has been the pick of that bunch when it comes to points - it would be a surprise if he did not pick up more on Sunday against this Spurs attack missing Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and now new signing Steven Bergwijn.
To be fair to the Gunners I thought they did enough to get something out of this game but Mings once again played a leader's role and kept Aston Villa's defence as tight as a drum. I've no doubt some hearts might have missed a beat when Eddie Nketiah's header hit the post and then bounced into Pepe Reina's arms but apart from that it was a terrific defensive display. Read the Crooks of the Matter below and find out why I think Villa will now survive.
Juventus have already secured top spot in Group D and will have little to play for. The Italians may opt to rest key players, in the wake of the shaky run they have had in the last two matches. This should be an advantage to Bayer Leverkusen, who are playing at home in a must win game. Bayer Leverkusen are unbeaten in six matches ahead of this clash and have done well at home recently. They will be looking to take full advantage of this as they pray for an Atletico Madrid loss. Playing at home, against a side with nothing to lose, and on the back of their recent form, we feel Bayer Leverkusen will win this game.
