This potential success is not born of their own acumen but it is rather a function of being extremely and disproportionately wealthy in relation to their peers. That, friends, is similar to privilege: buy yourself out of mistakes that would have deep consequences for those without access to extreme wealth.

We didn’t want to make every action incredible, playing simple is why the team played good. I enjoyed it much more [than the Arsenal game]. Kevin De Bruyne was incredible tonight – he won the game for us.
Football match from the Nigerian league and we have Kwara United playing host to Sunshine Stars. I think this match has a good chance of seeing 3 goals. Both teams involve in this match are in very good form, they have both won 3 matches in a row and have scored at least 2 goals respectively in each match.
Jamie Vardy - Leicester CityGetty Images A draw that will satisfy neither side entirely, yet offers something for both to work with. Poised, as they say. At least one of the second legs will be worth watching. Before the game, Sky made much of the “clash” between James Maddison and Jack Grealish, two very exciting young playmakers that Manchester United will soon try, and fail, to sign.
Since the injury to striker Rashford and the prolonged absence of midfielder Paul Pogba, United have had problems with penalty-takers, but Fernandes could be the answer. There is also a developing relationship between Fernandes and the fans, which is hardly surprising. They know a top-class player when they see one. Did you know? Fernandes became the first player to score their first Premier League goal for United with a penalty-kick.
Slutsk will host Ynergetyk-BDU for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the hosts are favorites in this game. Slutsk is one of the ambitious teams in this season. Also, Slutsk are in solid shape in the last matches. They have three consecutive victories. In previous game Slutsk is won 1-2 against Dinamo Minsk. Also, we have Energetyk-BDU who's is very average team in this season. Perhaps, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance. However, they have big fluctuations. I think, the hosts will try to make a positive result. My pick - Slutsk to win this match.
In fact, The Clarets 3-0 defeat at Chelsea last weekend made it four defeats on the bounce for Sean Dyche’s men, and they have lost seven of their last nine in the competition.

With Middlesbrough in fine form, we are backing them to take the points here. Derby are vulnerable and the hosts are on a roll, so they should make the most of this chance. We’re going with a home win as our pick in this one, with Boro well priced despite their recent record at this ground.
We’re confident that over 2.5 goals will be scored in Saturday’s match and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-2. Both of thee clubs have played to a high standard so far this season and their fine league positions are built on a foundation of goals. The form guide doesn’t point towards an obvious winner and the recent head to heads between the two clubs favour Crewe but we have backed a 2-2 draw, a result that both managers would probably be very pleased with.
The 3-0 win at Bournemouth meant Watford are out of the bottom three for the first time all season. INGS PUSHING FOR ENGLAND RECALL One of the big factors behind Southampton's stunning revival is the form of striker Danny Ings.

Only once before has the top division in Italy been forced to stop early because of external forces, at the outbreak of the First World War. Back then, Italian football was structured differently to today, with the winners of a northern and southern section facing each other to decide the ultimate title winner. At the time of Italy's entry into the war, Lazio had already won the southern section, but one game remained in the northern equivalent, which Genoa topped ahead of Torino, Internazionale and Milan.
We have worked tirelessly to achieve solutions to help those who were disadvantaged and sought to find ways to help them," they said. It might have been hard for Partick and Stranraer to stomach that given it was Dundee's second vote that disadvantaged them.

Athletic, who won the first leg 1-0 in Bilbao last month, seemed headed for a surprise exit after Granada forward Carlos Fernandez struck in the 48th minute and a header from defender German Sanchez doubled their advantage in the 76th.

West Ham boss Manuel Pellegrini says he never discusses the future with the club's hierarchy. The 66-year-old Chilean was appointed in May 2018 but has come under increasing pressure with five defeats in the last six league games. The Hammers are only one place above the relegation zone with three wins from their opening 13 matches. You must be clear, it is game by game," said Pellegrini before Saturday's visit to Chelsea.
England bid to win this series and only need to draw in order to do so. They have won two tests and South Africa are struggling for form in this series. They simply aren't scoring enough runs and their bowlers had a tough time of it against England's improving batsmen. With Archer possibly returning for the tourists, a bet on England to win looks a good one to make.

The kick was ordered to be re-taken after VAR ruled Norwich's players had encroached into the area. Cantwell's sliderule effort restored Norwich's lead in first-half stoppage time after Arsenal's defence backed off.

Both teams scored in three of Rennes’ and four of Bordeaux’s last six matches and the hosts have won five of their eight home games this season while the visitors have lost three times on the road, and that is why we believe there will be goals in this game at both ends of the pitch and Rennes will secure all three points on Saturday.

The matter is further complicated by an agreement between Uefa and the FA and Premier League to avoid scheduling domestic matches involving top-flight clubs in Champions League weeks if possible. Neither Liverpool nor Tottenham have a European game in the week commencing 24 February. However, Liverpool have televised Premier League matches against West Ham and Watford on 24 and 29 February respectively, so would have to play twice in 48 hours if the FA Cup replay was arranged for that 'spare' week.
Third-placed Lazio have moved six points off the leading pair of Inter Milan and Juventus with a game in hand but, more importantly, have exposed chinks in Juve's armour by beating the Turin side twice in the space of just over two weeks.

Academico Viseu will host Chaves for the Cup. I expect, this will be tense match for both sides. Both sides are one of the teams of the Segunda Liga. Both teams are very average teams in this season. Perhaps, the hosts will try to capitalize advantage on their pitch. However, I do not think, the hosts have big advantage in this game. In any case, this will not be an easy job for the hosts. I expect, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance. Of course, Chavez is a very unpredictable team. I think, they will try to be much more serious in this game. My pick - Chaves to win.
During a Q&A on Instagram, he added: "I know I'm a Formula 1 car. It works because he's there, that's it. It's not going to be spectacular. Antoine] Griezmann and [Kylian] Mbappe get seen more while he rolls his sleeves up and does the dirty work. But does everyone like his game? I don't know. Benzema has made more than 500 appearances for Real Madrid and scored 19 goals in 32 appearances this season - his 11th with the Spanish giants.
That statistic moves us smoothly towards our prediction for the evening. We’ve touched upon Crystal Palace’s poor home record, and the main culprit of this is their seeming inability to find the net in front of the home fans. They have scored just five goals in seven home league games this season, and looking back into last season they have averaged a meagre 0.92 goals per game there.
This includes 10 in his last 10 starts - a stunning run of prolific goalscoring which is one of the chief reasons that the Saints are now mid-table as opposed to mired in the relegation zone after a run of six wins in nine games. He is also being heavily tipped to return to the England squad. As Ings himself summed it up to BBC Sport's Football Focus: "I am just extremely happy at the moment. But if anyone needs a reminder of just what Ings has come through to get to this place, they need only think back to his one and only previous international cap, in a Euro 2016 qualifier against Lithuania on 12 October 2015 - a game that should have been the start of something special for the striker, but was instead almost the end.
We know there are going to be difficult times for people and their families with regards work and income," said captain Ben Mee. The club is behind people in the community, as the players are.

TALKING POINT Where should Fernandinho play? He was excellent at centre-back, but without him in midfield, his team lack bite. Rodri is a good player, but he's a controller not a tone-setter, and the difference was clear in the opening part of the game. No midfield can get by without at least a bit of aggression.

The home team had a poor start at the start of this season's games as well as the away team. The home side will do their best to keep a win for this particular game.

Dele's delightful goalFor months, there had been a debate about what had happened to Dele Alli. Once one of the golden boys of the English game, he had been reduced in influence and effectiveness and lost his place in Gareth Southgate's national squad. Who knew the answer was replacing the manager he loved?One of the first things Mourinho did after replacing Maurizio Pochettino was to ask Alli whether it was him or his brother who had been playing for Tottenham in recent times.
