Big thing is Ajax want to keep [Erik] Ten Hag, therefore keep being ambitious, keep the selection intact and adding better options. Its still unlikely though – after losing De Ligt and De Jong and now potentially losing [David] Neres, [Donny] Van de Beek and [Hakim] Ziyech would see him leave as well I think.

Southampton v Sheff UtdAs I say, Klopp is my manager of the year - but Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder is not far back down the road. Wilder has done brilliantly in the Blades' first season back in the top flight, and there are some similarities in the way he has got his success because, like Klopp, several of his players have played under him for quite a while.

They will definitely go for Arsenal because they have a soft centre. It was a disappointing result and performance for Arsenal in the Europa League and this game might be too soon to see a big change in performance.

That late goal has given Porto hopes of reaching the last sixteen of the Europa League. Home form has been good in the Europa League this season, though they are yet to keep a clean sheet.

Their away form is good and the bet here is on both teams to score.
Willem II have conceded just as many goals on the road as they have scored, 15, while AZ have only let in 5 goals in their own backyard and have netted an impressive 21 goals. Willem II have only failed to score in 22% of their away games so far this season, which is why we are confident they will get on the scoreboard this weekend. However, AZ are so strong at home that we believe the hosts will do enough to claim a 2-1 victory.

Nothing definitive has been agreed but Uefa is keen to leave all options on the table for as long as possible given the general uncertainty across Europe and in the knowledge there is no guarantee the season will be finished. However, there is a view that travel restrictions are more likely to have eased in August, which would be necessary for a cross-border competition.

Drinkwater has looked a bit rusty, but signing Pepe Reina - a Premier League veteran - and Samatta - who has a prolific track record albeit in Belgium - could be smart moves with Baston likely to be a backup option off the bench.

This is the first time in my life that I will put my money on some game in Burundi. Must say that at the beginning. Visitors are fighting for title. They are in hard situation as they are 4 points behind leader and have game in hand. Everything to be even worse for them, they had only draw in last game at home. So this game is must win game for them. They won at home in the first half o of the season 2-0 against Rukinzo. Home team is without any ambitions. They are almost safe from relegation but also far from top of table. Away win!
Bologna have been a high scoring side over the last year, while 88% of their home games this season have seen both teams score.
