But another Rangers error nearly doubled their deficit as possession was coughed up cheaply and Fransergio rattled the bar from outside the box. By now the boos were ringing out at Ibrox and when Morelos couldn't convert from three yards, with Matheus somehow making a smothering save, it seemed it wouldn't be Rangers' night. Especially when Braga doubled their lead with a well-worked move. Ruiz, on loan from Barcelona, marked his debut with the finishing touch as he lashed the ball into the bottom corner.
third placed Mamelodi face a 10th placed Celtics in their quest for top spot and champions league position for next season .Mamelodi Sundowns will be four points away from chiefs with a win today at Celtics .Sundowns have not been scoring many goals of late so have been Celtics but then it is my prediction that at least two goals will be scored by the teams today. The score margin is a tricky prediction but however at least 2 goals are expected .Celtics will be aiming to go to position 9 with a win over Sundowns and frustrate Sundowns today
The Villains do have undoubted talent in their midst, as their 5-1 demolition of Norwich in October showed. However, there’s a distinct feeling that this team hasn’t quite gelled yet, and that is hampering their chances of pushing up the table.
Chelsea conceded five times at Anfield on Wednesday but did score three of their own. Sorting out that defence of theirs is a key job for Frank Lampard next season. They need a point to secure a place in the Champions League and that would be a good achievement for Lampard in his first season. Winning the FA Cup too would add to an impressive season. Home form has been good of late and they face a Wolves side not always at their best away from home. Go for a home win here.
Gil Vicente are yet to keep a clean sheet away from home in the Primeira Liga and Braga have only stopped their guests from scoring in 20% of their home games, another reason to expect both teams to score this Saturday. Three goals have been scored in 60% of Gil Vicente’s away games this season which ties in well with our prediction for a 2-1 Braga win this weekend.
Tonight’s games feature two of the key ingredients that make top-level football these days entertaining: big, powerful clubs, and peril. To summarise: Liverpool need a point to secure qualification for the second phase, as defeat to Red Bull Salzburg would see them depart to their fizzy pop-fuelled opponents; Chelsea have to beat Lille to go through, otherwise they are relying on Ajax to do them a favour against Valencia; Borussia Dortmund and Inter are level on points and duking it out for the second spot in their group with the latter hosting Barcelona and the former facing Slavia Prague; and then there’s Group G, which could see any combination of RB Leipzig, Zenit St Petersburg and Lyon qualify.
MacLennan repeated the SPFL's warning from Tuesday about the cost - both in terms of time and finance - of holding an investigation, and called it "wholly unnecessary, inappropriate and contrary to the interests of the company". He also criticised Rangers for not releasing the evidence of wrongdoing that is "said to be causing that club so much apparent concern". MacLennan added that had the Ibrox club made it available, it could have been considered by the Deloitte investigation into the vote.

I am going to go for a draw here, and I actually think it would be a decent result for both teams. Lawro's prediction: 1-1Hugh's prediction: 4-0Matthew's prediction: 3-1SATURDAY Crystal Palace v Arsenal (12:30 GMT)I was very impressed by the way Leeds started against Arsenal in their FA Cup tie on Monday but the Gunners did well in the second half and ended up getting a good win. Mikel Arteta's side also beat Manchester United on New Year's Day, and are looking to put a little run of wins together.
Manchester City won 3-1 and 2-0 last season - the last team to beat United by at least two clear goals in three consecutive top-flight meetings was Liverpool, who did so in four in a row between 1978-1979. This is the 149th top-flight Manchester derby. United lead by 56 wins to City's 45, with 47 draws. Manchester City City, who were beaten by Wolves at the Etihad Stadium in October, have never lost more than one Premier League home fixture in a season under Pep Guardiola.
The striker prodded home from six yards out from Gylfi Sigurdsson's ball. Newcastle's Miguel Almiron hit the post, with Carroll having a goal disallowed for offside with the rebound. And the striker set up their equaliser, heading across to Fabian Schar to volley home. But Calvert-Lewin scored the winner as he slid in Richarlison's cross at the back post. Report: Newcastle 1-2 EvertonCrystal Palace and Southampton drew 1-1.

Not all of the proposed eight to 10 neutral venues will necessarily be Premier League grounds, although the vast majority will be. Brighton are 15th in the league, two points above the relegation zone, with nine games left to play - including home fixtures against Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool and Manchester City. Five of our nine remaining matches [are] due to be played at the Amex - all five matches are very difficult but four are against some of the biggest clubs in European football," Barber added.
Long read: Marcus Rashford's campaign to make change happenRashford seeks more change after food voucher campaign success'The system isn't built for families like mine' - Rashford's plea to MPsUnited legends Sir Alex Ferguson and Sir Bobby Charlton have previously received the award from the university. Rashford said: "When you look at the great names that have been awarded this doctorate in the past, it's humbling.
Austria Vienna and Tirol Wattens will face each other in the upcoming match in the Austrian Bundesliga. Austria Vienna this season have the following results: 7W, 11D and 8L. Meanwhile Tirol Wattens have 6W, 6D and 14L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
It was very close," Olaroiu told The National newspaper in Dubai, where Jiangsu are preparing for the new Chinese Super League season. The club agreed with his agent, his agent was there. We agreed with Madrid and in the last month - I don't know what happened there, they lose some friendly games by a big score - Madrid changed their mind.
Dijon may have beaten PSG 2-1 in their penultimate match before the international break but they resumed their 'laughingstock' status the following week as they lost 1-0 away to Monaco. It was their third defeat in four matches in all competitions with six goals conceded in that time and they now sit third bottom in Ligue 1.
We are learning a different game and I am a bit saddened by it. It (VAR) is becoming too difficult for everyone. I don't think anyone knows where they are with it. What we are having to deal with, we're having to learn on the job. Wilder's side have seen a number of VAR calls going against them this season, including a marginal offside decision in a 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur last month.
There is too much noise with Bale, he wants to be here and do as well as he can, that's why we don't want to talk too much about this. He is integrated into the group and he wants to play well, just like everyone else," Zidane said. I hope this doesn't continue throughout the season. We want the fans to be with us from the start of the game to the end but we can't control this.
This is a match from Germany Second division where Dynamo Dresden will play against Sandhausen. The visitors Sandhausen are favorite to win here.. Currently, the hosts Dynamo Dresden sit on the 18th spot, last place in the table with three wins, three draws and nine defeats. Sandhausen meanwhile sit on the seventh spot in the table with five wins, six draws and four defeats. The performances of the hosts of the last games were just too good. Sandhausen, however, is a strong opponent, but absolutely beatable on home soil for the Dresdeners. But I would like to go for both teams to SharePoint.

TUESDAY’S BIG STORIES Ol’ Slabhead and the tenuous excuses: Chelsea 0-2 Man Utd Bring in VAR, they said. More correct decisions will be made, they said. The tedious debates around refereeing will disappear, they said. Like for example when a player kicks an opponent in the groin but the referee misses it, not to worry because VAR will spot it and there won’t be any injustices like that player going on to score a crucial goal later on in the game when he shouldn’t have been on the pitch, they said.
Dijon’s home games produce an average of 2.00 total goals and Metz away games produce an average of 2.11 total goals, which points towards a total of two goals being scored in Saturday’s clash. Only 22% of Metz’s away games have produced over 2.5 goals and both teams have scored in 50% of Dijon’s home games, adding further reason to back a final scoreline of 1-1.
Prior to their unsuccessful visit to La Ceramica, Getafe won three La Liga matches on the spin without conceding against Levante (4-0), Eibar (0-1) and Valladolid (2-0), and they have amassed 13 points from their last five outings at Coliseum Alfonso Perez, keeping four clean sheets and netting 11 goals in total.
As a football club, we have a responsibility to deliver the right message. Safety is the highest priority. Closing the doors to a match is difficult for many reasons but in the end, in order to continue with the calendar and continue with normal activities, we have to take these decisions. Inter have had two Serie A games postponed and played a Europa League match against Ludogorets behind closed doors at the San Siro on February 27.
Their record against Melbourne City is reasonable, winning 11 of the 28 games played between the sides but in more recent years they have lost three of their last four matches against City. This season both teams have scored in almost three quarters of Newcastle Jets games and the same figure appears in those matches when looking at beating the goal line, indicating we should see both teams create chances throughout the 90 minutes.
Liverpool haven't been at their very best of late but returned to form with a 2-1 home win over Bournemouth on Saturday. They had been unbeaten in their last five Champions League games before losing in Madrid. Now they have to hope for yet another special Anfield night to get them through to the quarter finals.
Everton have been in form since Ancelotti's first game in charge on Boxing Day, during which time they have picked up 18 points. But this was a desperately disappointing day for the Italian on his return to the club where he won the league and FA Cup double in 2009-10. The result meant Everton remain 12th, six points behind fifth-placed Wolves, while Chelsea stay fourth and extended their lead over Nuno Espirito Santo's side to five points.

The top 3 teams have all dropped points, in fact Stuttgart lost both games played after the break and Hamburger SV only got 2 draws, same as league leaders from Armenia while 5th placed Aue won 3-1 at home with Sandhausen and came close to winning last round away at Nurnberg as well having the lead 1-0 they drew 1-1 the game. Their defense is not that solid but at home before the break they even defeated Hamburg with 3-0 and last season with Darmstadt they had the lead 2-0 but drew 2-2 the game.
The exact score earns 40 points. LAWRO'S PREDICTIONSFRIDAY Wolves v Leicester (20:00 GMT)These teams have got top-four ambitions and this is a big game for both of them. It should be an entertaining one too, because they are both really good going forward and always create a lot of chances. There were lots of goals in this fixture last season, with Diego Jota completing his hat-trick in injury time to nick a 4-3 win for Wolves.
Greenwood has taken a back seat in recent weeks after all the attention he was afforded in the early part of the season, but he also made his mark by smashing a shot into the roof of Watford's net to end any lingering hopes of a Watford comeback. Watford's worry Watford's equaliser was ruled out by VAR for a handballWatford's noisy band of supporters cannot have travelled north with much optimism. Their side have still never won at Old Trafford, and have now lost nine in a row since their last draw in 1995.
