Bournemouth have no fresh injury concerns ahead of the match with striker Joshua King, who missed Saturday's 3-2 defeat by Tottenham Hotspur, still nursing a hamstring problem. We're going through a spell where we've missed some key players," Howe added. We want to be winning regularly. We are in good shape, but have to be more consistent.
For all of these top-flight sides playing lower-division teams, it is a case of picking a team that you think is capable of beating the opposition. That's different to a lot of Premier League games, because half the time you are only thinking about stopping the opposition. If you are going out to win, then you pick your strongest side. For various reasons, that is not going to happen this weekend, so the challenge is to get the balance right between resting players and winning the tie.
These are two sides who are both struggling for results, with the pair each in the bottom six in the form table across the last eight games. The pair have lost their winning edge, as Bristol City have lost five of their last six league games (W1), as many as in their previous 25 combined (W10 D10 L5). Wigan have drawn as many games as they’ve won at home this term – four. With their last three at home finishing 1-1, we’re backing a repeat in this clash.

German club Schalke will use part of a 50,000 euro (£42,139) fine imposed for racist abuse by their fans to fund anti-discrimination workshops. The Bundesliga side's fans subjected Hertha Berlin's Jordan Torunarigha to monkey chants during a German Cup game. Schalke will use up to 16,000 (£13,487) euros of their fine for workshops, rather than pay that money to the DFB. German football's governing body warned Schalke of tougher sanctions if there was another such incident of racism.
West Ham have won two of their last four home league games. Watford have lost their last four away league fixtures. Watford have failed to score in their last four away league matches. West Ham have scored three goals in three of their last five home league matches. This is a vital match down at the bottom of the English Premier League.
Pochettino’s Spurs project may have ended on a sour note and without a trophy, but with time and little resource he proved he was capable of getting a club to punch above its weight. United do have the resources, meanwhile, meaning Ed Woodward will no doubt be pondering how that could look with Poch at the wheel.
The immediate target is to win the next game. We want everyone to get a feel that this is something for the long term. West Ham is a big club in a big city. There's no reason why in the years to come we can't be the club that is attracting the top players. I want to play attacking football but the best team in any country will usually have the best defensive record. At Everton we had to build that.
Both sides had chances to force victory with Ben Davies denied when his 30-yard drive was brilliantly turned on to the bar by Arsenal keeper Emiliano Martinez in the first half while Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang also struck the frame of the goal after the break. Arsenal had the greater share of possession but it was Spurs who struck decisively nine minutes from time when Alderweireld glanced in Son's corner, securing a win that leaves them in eighth place, two points ahead of the Gunners.
But it has not gone unnoticed that negotiations are being led by chief executive Gordon Taylor, who promised to stand down from his £2m per year role more than a year ago, but remains in power. The union has been holding out for a collective wage deferral and has finally broken its silence to explain its position, with some thinly-veiled digs at some clubs in its statement. But during talks with the Premier League over the past two days it has been made very clear to the PFA that an actual pay cut is required, with clubs deprived of matchday revenue and worried that TV rights-holders will start demanding hundreds of million of pounds worth of refunds.
However, he is certain United's current malaise will not continue indefinitely and believes, under Solskjaer, they are starting to develop the style of play he is looking for. I have incredible respect for this club," he said. In every club's history there are periods when you struggle a bit. But they will be back. Sooner or later they will be in the positions to fight for the Premier League title.

It was horrible watching them have to leave. I just assumed Theo Walcott was there for experience. It was obvious he was going to be a huge talent, he had just signed for Arsenal and England did it with a lot of players over the years - I remember Steve Gerard, Rio Ferdinand, Gareth Barry and lots of young players drafted into the full England squad before they were ready because they were always going to be a part of the senior setup at some stage.
The away team are used to playing in low scoring matches and the home team have also seen some of their own low scoring matches as well. With the away team they have seen 3 matches in their past 5 where only 1 goal was scored. So it is not uncommon to see low amounts of goals and only 1 team scoring in their matches. They are good at defending well at times and really do like to slow down their matches where possible. Can see this match not having many good chances and even shots on target for both teams

Emile Smith-Rowe's deflected sixth-minute shot and a header by Jon Gorenc Stankovic from the resulting corner promised much early on. But Lewis O'Brien's 34th-minute shot from 25 yards, straight at keeper Simon Sluga, was the last meaningful effort the Terriers had all game. Luton were markedly better after the break, playing in more advanced areas and stifling the hosts in wide areas. Their opening goal came after their first shot of the game.
It opened up second half and two different styles but as an experience this was never going to be straightforward. When you are at home you have to deal with fans not being here and it is strange. A lot if unknowns for the players to deal with. We have some who thrive on the emotional attachments with the fans on matchday. But they have to deal with that. What pleased me today is that we were able to bounce back after conceding late.
Against Palace, they were playing their 56th game of the campaign. The long season looked to be taking its toll, having taken just four points from their previous four games, but victory gave them their highest points tally in the Premier League and keeps their Europa League fate in their own hands going into the last game. That competition is one they still remain in this season, which will prolong their campaign into August when they face Olympiakos in the second leg of their last-16 tie, and going all the way to lifting the trophy will upgrade their achievement to a place in the Champions League.
The off-season transfer window is also set to open when the season ends, casting doubt over whether players will be allowed to move on before the current season reaches a conclusion. The 24-team Euro 2020 tournament, scheduled to be held in 12 countries from June 12 to July 12, could also be pushed back a year which would create a longer window for national leagues to finish their seasons.
I’m screaming. I kicked the ball off the pitch and I'm going mad; ‘Get over here!' "And he was relaxed, typical Berba. Just wait. He said Barcelona will just keep it and play and wait until the players come over there. Dimitar Berbatov twice won the Premier League with Manchester UnitedPA Sport "I said: ‘This is not Barcelona, this is Manchester United.
However, there is still plenty of issues to address for the hosts as they have failed to win any of their last four home matches and have earned just 10 points on home soil overall. While Orient have a solid offensive record, their record of keeping the opposition at bay is not quite as good and the 37 goals conceded this term represents the second worst defensive record in the division.
Jordan Pickford then allowed a routine shot from Christian Benteke squirm through his legs for the Belgian's first goal in 34 appearances as Palace restored parity after the interval, and moments later the 29-year-old unwittingly struck the post. Just when it looked like Everton were on the ropes, however, the hosts took the lead through a fine solo goal from Richarlison on the break, the Brazilian netting his 11th goal of the season after a lung-busting run.
I knew Lamela could only give us 20 minutes and I knew Ndombele could not play for 90 minutes. I tried to manage the pieces I had. Lucas Moura was absolutely dead, Steven Bergwijn was absolutely dead and Giovani lo Celso was absolutely dead. He added: "I'm not worried with the 1-0 - we can go there and win. What worries me is that these are our players for the next however many matches. Mourinho also gave his view on Alli throwing a water-bottle down in response to being substituted.
Match of Indonesian top League. Semen Padang will play at home with team Borneo. My bet will be over 2.5 goals. Hosts are in the bottom of the table. They did 2 -1 - 2 at last 5 matches played , 5 - 5. Guests takes the 4 th place in rankings. They did 2 - 1 - 2 at last 5 matches played , 8 - 6. As we see both clubs are in the same shape. I predict here open match with goals from the both sides. Hosts will have motivation to leave the last place. They must to win today. Borneo have chances to reach the 2 nd place. They need a points also .

AMSTERDAM, March 3 (Reuters) - England manager Gareth Southgate believes his two injured strikers Harry Kane and Marcus Rashford are "on track" in their recoveries but said he would not close the door on a Euro 2020 recall for Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy. Tottenham forward Kane had an operation in January on a ruptured hamstring tendon whilst Manchester United striker Rashford has been sidelined with a back injury.

While some pundits question whether Solskjaer is the right man to take the club forward, the chants inside Old Trafford have been supportive of the manager, while scathing of the owners and Woodward. Another former United player, Rio Ferdinand, who was linked with a return to the club as a Director of Football last year, said there is a lack of clear direction.

Jan 25 (Reuters) - In a week when the future of FA Cup replays was called into question, Tottenham Hotspur were one of four teams who will have to go again in the fourth round after a day of few goals and defensive resilience. Jose Mourinho's eight-times winners were pegged back three minutes from time by Southampton's Sofiane Boufal in a 1-1 draw at St Mary's.
It's probably the only sport at the Olympics which has an age limit and you'd expect that FIFA and the IOC will consider that, for one Olympic campaign, that age group increases so those players get the opportunity to fulfil their dreams and what they've achieved," Arnold said in comments published by Fairfax media on Tuesday.
