Since Kombouaré's arrival at the club, they have conceded the most goals and chances of any team in Ligue 1 and the outlook doesn't get any better when you look at their away form ahead of this journey east. Les Violets haven't won an away game in the league since February. In those 16 games they've conceded 34 goals but have also only failed to score five times despite the poor results so they should be expecting to net against this stunned Strasbourg side.
We also feel that Union stand a good chance at keeping a clean sheet in this game. They have won three of their last four home games by a 2-0 scoreline. We feel that another 2-0 win for Union Berlin is a likely result of this game.
The hosts have beaten each of the league’s bottom seven, so they should be confident against one of the division’s worst away sides. We’re backing a home win as our tip here, while we’re backing a 2-0 home victory given that Wednesday have kept a clean sheet in 62% of their home matches this season.
The hosts had to withstand greater pressure from Solskjaer's side in the second period but in contrast to the Chelsea defeat, when they conceded twice in the last seven minutes, Arteta's side managed the game well. Their only concerns were injuries to Kolasinac and Lacazette, who were both taken off in the second half.

Watford gave up a two-goal lead at home to Everton last week, losing 3-2 to Carlo Ancelotti's side, while in contrast Brighton came back from 3-1 down at West Ham United to earn a 3-3 draw. The equaliser in that game came from 36-year-old striker Glenn Murray, who this week signed a deal to stay with the club until the end of next season.
ODE TO ODEGAARD Real Sociedad have been one of the most exciting attacking teams to watch this season in La Liga and that is largely down to Martin Odegaard. The Norwegian playmaker failed to make a mark at his parent club Real Madrid but after two loan spells in the Netherlands is finally shining on a bigger stage.
We are aware of the public sentiment that the players should pay non-playing staff's salaries. However, our current position is that – as businesses - if clubs can afford to pay their players and staff, they should," it said.

Football was back, and boy were we glad it was. It didn't take long to feel as if football had never been away.
It was a long time ago, and I'm not sure I want to be reminded of how bad they were," author Bruce told Eurosport in 2013. Just because I got a GCSE in English, I thought I was going to be the next Dick Francis. It didn't make any contribution at all to anyone's income. It became a laughing stock, to be honest. I think they're probably still on the shelves somewhere, and I bet you could probably pick one up for 99p," he added.
It is impossible not to imagine Liverpool fans doing the same at the point when their 30-year wait reaches its end, which could be as soon as Saturday. The fact Liverpool could achieve the feat inside their own - closed - stadium, with fans outside waiting to celebrate is surreal. One could forgive the Premier League, police, local council and anyone else who would have to deal with this situation wanting it wrapped up very quickly before the present advice changes.
There were no such doubts when they eventually did take the lead, as defender James Tomkins headed Luka Milivojevic's precise freekick in off the underside of the crossbar five minutes into the second half.

Another tough matchup and small league derby where two title contender should play close game.

Mel Stein, the AFA life president, said a united policy had been agreed.

Blackburn rovers are in great shape right now, they are undefeated on 7 games in a row and also they won 4 from last 5 at home and that one match ended with draw versus the Wigan couple days ago, but I expect clean win for them tomorrow cause on the other hand,Birmingham is in very bad shape and also in very bad scoring shape and after 3 defeats in a row home and away I don't think Birmingham could get even a point tomorrow and who wants to risk could try with some handicap on the Blackburn rovers,2 0 is very possible result
As the League 1 team, Bristol Rovers will have been disappointed with their efforts when this pair met two weeks ago. They were at home, but failed to dominate the game, while they went a goal up with 15 minutes to go but failed to come out on top. All round a pretty disappointing day.
Both teams scored in 71% of Fortuna Sittard’s home games and 57% of Groningen’s away games this season and 71% of the host’s home games and the visitors’ away games have produced over 1.5 goals, adding weight to our prediction for a 1-1 draw. Fortuna Sittard have only kept clean sheets in 29% of their home games this season and the same can be said about Groningen in their away games, so we’re not expecting either side to keep a clean sheet this weekend.

Continuing on the subject of Eriksen, the Portuguese added: "I just want to say that this situation shouldn't happen on 25 January. The only thing I can say is Eriksen, since I arrive, he is behaving in a very, very professional way, with me and the team. But to be on 25 January in a situation like this is not nice. Eriksen was left out of Tottenham's FA Cup fourth-round draw at Southampton on Saturday, but has been regularly involved during Mourinho's time at the club despite the speculation surrounding the 27-year-old's future.
