Zinedine Zidane is not looking to get rid of the Croatian midfielder, but there is no indication he will win his place back. Luka Modric (Real Madrid)Getty Images Paper Round’s view: Modric has been linked with a move away for the last couple of seasons so you would expect that he will move on in the summer, if not earlier.
There isn’t a lot to pick from between these two with them both having their defensive limitations and good attacking options but with those two things at the forefront of our minds, we’re predicting that both sides will find the net this weekend and continue their trend of not being able to keep a clean sheet.

October's win against Portsmouth signalled three league wins on the bounce for Wimbledon, who appeared to be on the up after a very rocky start to the campaign, though they've since gone in the wrong direction, winning none of their last three, two of which they've lost. The departure of Wally Downes has clearly had an unsettling effect. New boss Glynn Hodges needs to turn things around somewhat sharpish, as the Dons are currently outside of the drop-zone on goal difference alone.
He then got his goal from the spot after his initial effort had to be retaken, the penalty award coming after Demarai Gray had been fouled by Adam Webster. Vardy's effort was saved by Mat Ryan before the ball was headed in by James Maddison, but the England midfielder's celebrations were cut short when VAR informed referee Mike Dean of encroachment, gifting Vardy a reprieve. Seagulls home run ends after below-par displayBrighton came into this game having won their previous three at the Amex, but it never looked like they would make it four.

The FA Cup hasn’t been too kind to Tranmere recently with the club losing 7-0 to Tottenham in the fourth round last season. They needed a replay to beat Southport in the third round and haven’t had much success in the years preceding that game either. A cup run, whilst being welcome financially, means the club run the risk of losing sight of their relegation plight and there are many reasons that the side would be better off on the losing end of the game this weekend.
The hosts have scored 2.5 goals per home game, while they’ve scored at least twice in each of their last five home games in the league. Their chance creation is impressive while they are a clinical side, which has made them a team to fear going forward. Setubal are fresh from a 3-2 win at second-bottom Pacos Ferreira, while they’ve conceded twice in three of their last four.
Phillip Cocu's team offered more of a threat in the second half and went close to an opener when Curtis Davies sent a powerful header past the post from Marriott's teasing delivery. Town midfielder Chris Lines hooked a volley over the crossbar late on, but neither side could muster a winner. Man of the match - Charlie Goode (Northampton) He may have been fortunate to escape a red card in the first half, but Charlie Goode produced a towering performance at the heart of Northampton's defence to help his side earn a replay.
The guests are 1st place at this moment one point more than 2nd placed Verl but a game more played than their rivals so they need to keep up the pressure at the top by winning today and it is not really a tough game for them as Fortuna Koln is just a middle of the league table side which Rodinghausen defeated with no less than 4-0 at home earlier this season and the guests in this one are very attacking minded on the road playing always for the win they have scored 26 goals in 10 games winning 7 and losing 3 times while they conceded just 8 times.

When I played with him, he was just more of a finisher. The work ethic you see from him now is what Pep has instilled in him and that is why he has taken his game to the next level because now he is doing all the stuff he did when I played with him, and more. The medal that would put him up there with football's greats Aguero has another match-ball to add to his collection after his hat-trick in City's 6-1 win over Aston Villa on Sunday, his 12th in the Premier League - another recordReplacing Aguero, when that moment comes, is going to be near impossible for City.
Well I don't know why When are such a favorites.This is very important game for both teams because this is direct fight for survival.When is at better position but Dresden has 2 matches less played so with a won here they will raise their chances for survival a lot, even and a draw would be fine and I don't see any reason why they should not take it.When is not better team than Dresden for sure. They don't have more quality and the only advantage here is the home field but without any fans attending I wonder who big of a advantage this is.

The Austrian “Salzburg” has not yet lost the chance to get into the playoffs of the Champions League, but for this you need to beat Liverpool at home and wait for Napoli to lose Genka at home. If the first option is still likely, then to believe that the “Genk” will finally slap the "parthenopeyts" in Naples is insanity. Yes, and the same “Liverpool” is unlikely to allow itself to relax. Recently, the Merseyside look confident, having beaten “Everton” (5: 2), and then “Bournemouth” (3: 0). Liverpool will try to play as openly as in the first match in Liverpool, when seven goals were scored. Now the situation definitely has such a development, because Klopp's team does not need anything and you can play even more relaxed. Bet on total over 3.5

West Ham can certainly investigate too, but you don’t hold much hope of them doing much about this issue going by the statement they released in response to the weekend’s chanting: " West Ham United in no way condones any behaviour that falls short of the highest standards which the club sets when it comes to equality.
Mourinho, who replaced the sacked Pochettino at Spurs in November, has only twice been on the winning side against Klopp in their 10 previous games as opponents.

All went on to have successful stints in Europe. Minamino relished the chance to watch them close up and, on occasion, train with them.

Speaking in Mental Health Awareness Week, Bellamy explained how his career was the pinnacle of his depression.

Neale Cooper and I had got used to standing at the side of the Pittodrie pitch. Two Aberdonian schoolboys - best friends - frozen, waiting behind the Beach End goal to scurry away after shots.
