Your favourite player growing up was Real Madrid's Marcelo. It was a dream for me to play alongside him, like it was when I signed for Real Madrid. I signed when I was young; I didn't believe it when they called me. As a young player, I looked up to Marcelo because he plays in the same position as me. He laughs all the time too; when he plays, he enjoys it. I want to be like him. You play in lots of different positions, what's your favourite? I think I like the right-back role - but I like to go on the attack all the time.
Lille are on the winning streak while playing at home. Winning their previous 4 home fixtures. They have also been performing very good against big teams when they play at home. PSG as usual are winning almost every game they play in league one. I think the oddsmakers are not good here. Lille is a very good team at home and have also strengthened during that transfer window. They beat psg by 5 goals in their previous fixture. I think they are going to frustrate psg here. And hit them on counters. If there is an antidote for psg in this league. Then it's lille
It is a problem," Guardiola said. I don't know if he will be fit for the Madrid game. City winger Leroy Sane is still on the road to recovery as he stepped up his comeback from a serious knee injury that required surgery last year, but Guardiola said it would be "weeks" before he was ready to return to action.
I don't blame people for that but if all I was ever part of, or all I ever achieved was to do with what happened in Germany, in Munich, if that was what my life was all about, it didn't come to very much. Indeed, the career that followed would cement Gregg's legacy as one of the finest goalkeepers in Manchester United and Northern Ireland history. A life in professional football saw Gregg, who Sir Alex Ferguson described as his hero, spend 35 years in England and Wales.

I was playing in Sam Kerr's place so I've got to fill her boots and keep them warm for her coming back. After my injury in the summer, it took me a while getting over it and in terms of getting over the World Cup, it took a bigger toll on me than I thought it would. It's about getting myself up and getting my recovery and everything off the pitch right because I think that's where I fell down a little.

At various stages during this quite incredible season for Liverpool, it has been suggested that they could be in course to match one or other of these achievements. Following a 1-0 win against Tottenham that extended their lead to the top of the Premier League to 16 points, and ensured they have locked up 88 of the last 90 points available, it is not being too outlandish to suggest that they may yet match all three in one season.

It feels as if a couple more goals at different times and we could have been right in the mixer for the Europa League. At the same time, I don't think we'd have the squad to cope with that anyway. But would you risk a rainy Thursday night in Azerbaijan for a relegation dog-fight?

It's completely a one sided game in favor of Nomme Kalju. Nomme kalju currently played 3 games this season so far and won 2 lost 1. They are eager to regain the winning momentum for sure. See many goals here as kalju is too good for home team. If we see their head to head matches more than 90% games been dominated by guests. Also those games goes for more than 2 goals. At this point if we choose a value bet then over 2.5 goals looks best option here. Nomme kalju going to win this with big margin. Good luck.

In the Nicaragua U20 tournament, Chinandega U20s started quite badly. After 16 rounds, this team has only 14 points, currently standing at the bottom of the table. In round 17, they have to meet U20 Real Madrid, the team is ranked 6th with 21 points. The bad thing is that in the last 7 rounds, U20 Chinandega has lost. Therefore, in this match, they are underestimated by the house with the ratio of 0: 2 1/2.
Nonetheless, Valladolid's strength at home somewhat evens things up here and we're going for a 1-1 draw at full time. We're also predicting under 2.5 goals, which has been the outcome in nine of the 13 games played this season for both sides. However, Valladolid have scored in all but one of their five home games with the same applying to six of Sevilla's seven away matches, hence why a 1-1 scoreline looks the most likely result at Jose Zorrilla to round off Matchday 14 in La Liga.
West Brom are currently are second in the league behind Leeds. They have won last three matches on trot prior to this match and overall in 17 matches they have lost just once this season. They are yet to be beaten at home which shows their strength. Bristol City are also coming in this match unbeaten from last five matches and they have lost only two matches from 17 played so far and have drawn 8 matches from those 17 matches. Playing away they have lost only once so far from eight matches and that is why I am going for their double chance today.
