Betis are back in form and will give Atletico a good test in this La Liga fixture. They are strong at home with only two league defeats this season.

WBA is leaders of the championship and surely they are favorites in a game versus a team from relegation zone but still I think they are not going to be able to beat Barnsley tomorrow simply because hosts are in very good shape and they are undefeated on 3 games in a row and also in good scoring shape, so I think they Will score a goal or maybe two and avoid defeat but also I don't expect from them to beat WBA, they are not that strong, so I pick draw and I think it is the best option on very good odd
TALKING POINT Is playing matches behind closed doors sustainable? The TV commentators and pundits were all watching from back in the UK, and were shocked at the lack of atmosphere, reiterating that fans are what make football.

For drama, does it get any better?"Ian Wright: "If City did not finish that off, they would have been ridiculed. I read somewhere that was Mario Balotelli's only assist at Manchester City. When you look at the build-up, Balotelli was falling over but he scooped it up. Was Aguero going to shoot? He didn't there but then he hammered it in. It was one of those brilliant moments you watch where you wonder whether it has happened.
Chelsea are in top form at the moment and are only a point behind the league leaders with a game in hand. They are unbeaten in the league and have already had two wins over their opponents this season. Manchester United's form has dipped in recent weeks and only two of their last five league games have been won. Chelsea aren't just scoring lots but are keeping clean sheets too. Back them to win this match.

Spurs were reeling from a disheartening home 2-0 loss to Chelsea and a sleepy atmosphere gripped their stadium early in the game, which was briefly lifted when Kane put the ball in the net before a VAR review ruled the effort offside. Brighton, who had thrashed Spurs 3-0 in October in one of the final games under Mourinho's predecessor Mauricio Pochettino, went ahead when defender Webster appeared unmarked to head in a Pascal Gross free kick in the 37th minute.
Billy Gilmour's first-team career so far amounts to just seven appearances - four starts - and 461 minutes. But the 18-year-old Scot has wasted no time in making a lasting impression at the heart of Chelsea's midfield. Among the list of admirers is West Ham manager David Moyes, who would relish a chance to work with his compatriot. The one [Scottish player] who if I could sign tomorrow I would is Billy Gilmour after his opening performances for Chelsea," said Moyes.
That stopped the Eagles' slide towards the relegation battle, and now Brighton badly need the same to give themselves a bit of breathing space at the bottom. I think the Seagulls will do it too - as a derby game, this one is always lively but they have a good record against Palace in the top flight and I have a feeling that will continue. Lawro's prediction: 2-0Sam's prediction: These teams are in a similar category - not quite in the relegation zone, but not far above it.
After 62 games with his local club, Rangers paid a then Scottish record transfer fee to sign him and he quickly became a crowd favourite at Ibrox.

An ambitious, flagship project that brought Manchester moments of ecstasy thanks, in part, to its owners' lavish spending. That parallel did not make the press release. Instead when Manchester City and Puma launched this season's away shirt, inspired by the Hacienda - the fabled Factory Records-owned nightclub at the epicentre of the 1980s and 1990s "Madchester" scene - both the sports brand and the Premier League superpower kept it simple.
He finished the last campaign with four goals in 21 appearances for the U18s. Ethan Laird The 18-year-old full-back has risen through the ranks at United, and this season he has provided two assists in six Premier League 2 games.

He has a wonderful array of qualities that you need as a midfielder. His influence and ability to lead others has just grown and grown over the past couple of seasons, and so has his quality on the ball. Again, it is not something that has just happened recently but, as his confidence has grown, his range of passing has increased and he is now more productive and creative. He used to get criticised for making too many sideways passes but it was not about direction, it is called playing safe.
Best finish: Winner (1988) Koeman was a key member of the Netherlands' triumphant 1988 side, scoring from the penalty spot under massive pressure in the semi-final win over hosts West Germany.

Odds are very good for taking the over 3 goals in this one and I say this because Dartford is in great form scoring 16 goals in their last 5 league games, and no, not all the goals came in a single game, as they scored 3 goals in 4 of those wins and 4 goals once as well, being very efficient both at home and also away from home and they also beat some tough opponents lately with ease as well.
