Crystal Palace have had another inconsistent season but a win at home to relegation-doomed Huddersfield Town would be a major step towards Premier League survival. They begin this match five points clear of the bottom three, none of whom are in good form at present. Palace have lost two of their last three league games and both were at home. Only three home league games have been won this season with the last being a win over Fulham in February.
However, they must fancy their chances against bottom-of-the-table Huddersfield Town. The Yorkshire side are 16 points from safety with seven games remaining and a loss here would see them relegated if both Southampton and Burnley win this weekend. They so nearly won their last league game leading 3-1 at West Ham United with 16 minutes to go and ended up losing 4-3. 16 of their last 18 league games have been lost and on their travels they have just one point from their last nine games. Palace can get a very welcome home win here.

Back to back home wins for the Foxes and they have beaten Fulham and Burnley in the last two games under Brendan Rodgers. Leicester will have eyes on finishing seventh and with Huddersfield and Newcastle next up I feel Leicester can go on a run of wins.
There's not much between these in the table and both are likely to finish midtable. I think Bournemouth's away record is so bad (11 defeats in 15) that it's just hard to see them getting anything against a Leicester side that will likely end the season strongly under Bournemouth.

The Republic of Ireland had gone seven games without a win before beating Gibraltar away 1-0 on Saturday. That record isn't quite as bad as it seems because they had drawn four of those games. Earlier in the season, they finished bottom of their Nations League group and were relegated to League C. That bad performance won't help them if they need to rely on the play-offs to qualify for Euro 2020. Ireland had also failed to score in their four games played before the trip to Gibraltar but three of their last five matches have ended goalless. Home form has seen them win one of their last five games and fail to score in the last three. Each of their last six games have had under 2.5 goals scored in them.
Georgia didn't trouble the scorers in their opening Euro 2020 fixture as they lost 2-0 at home to Switzerland. That's compared to the 12 goals they scored as they won their Nations League group and won promotion to League C. They were only up against Latvia, Andorra and Kazakhstan and this is tougher Five of their last six away games have had under 2.5 goals scored in them. Their Euro qualifying record has never resulted in them reaching the final and only one of their last 15 away games have been won and that was against Gibraltar, Go for Ireland to win a low-scoring game.

Liechtenstein, as always, come into the new European Championship qualifying campaign as firm underdogs in their group. Group J contains the likes of Italy, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Greece, Finland, and Armenia. It’s not the strongest of groups around, but Liechtenstein are certainly bottom of this particular pile
That being said, they did manage to get a 2-2 draw at home to Armenia in their last match of the UEFA Nations League, ending a run of three consecutive defeats. This is a fairly rare occurrence though – The hosts have lost 19 of their last 23 matches, only managing victories over Qatar and Gibraltar in this perio
Greece hardly have the best squad in the world, but they do have some genuine top level talent at their disposal. Arsenal defender Sokratis captains the side while Galatasaray’s Kostas Mitroglou is the main striker. The rest of the squad is comparatively inexperienced at international level, but the quality is far greater than the hosts’.
Italy are the clear favourites in Group J, but Greece will feel that they do have a genuine chance at clinching second place. Bosnia-Herzegovina will be their main rivals in this respect, so getting off to a winning start in Liechtenstein is massively important for them.
Admittedly, the Greeks aren’t the most free flowing side around. In fact, they haven’t scored more than a single goal in a match since their 4-1 thrashing of Gibraltar back in 2017. This defensive nature has resulted in a lot of low scoring games, with nine of their last 10 outings seeing fewer than three goals in total.
Seven of their last 10 away matches have been low scoring affairs too, while Liechtenstein’s marginally improved defensive record at home means that four of their last five on home soil have seen fewer than three goals. This makes Greece to Win and Under 2.5 Goals look a great bet here, so we’re backing that along with a 2-0 correct score prediction.

The road to Euro 2020 starts this Thursday evening for Northern Ireland but there is little margin for error in these qualifying campaigns and this is a match they really need to win. Estonia have never qualified for a major tournament and after a tough draw, their hopes of making next year’s showpiece are very slim.
Germany and the Netherlands are strongly expected to fill the top two positions in this group but Northern Ireland have proven time and time again that they can never be totally written off. In Belfast, they always fancy their chances. However they struggled in the recent UEFA Nations League, losing all of their four matches against Austria and Bosnia so they don’t take any real momentum into this game.
Estonia also made little impression in that competition, winning only 1 of their 6 matches. However that was their final game away to Greece and they did at least seem to improve as the competition went on. Along with Belarus, they are the outsiders for this group and it’s difficult really to see any way they can make the Finals.
This is an ageing Northern Ireland side in many respects and one that includes two 39 year olds, in the shape of Gareth McAuley and Aaron Hughes. However they should be able to field something very close to their strongest eleven with few injury concerns and they have sufficient experience and quality to negotiate this task.
A run of 2 wins from 13 internationals is a concern but they’ve played some strong sides over that period and on paper this is their easiest fixture since a trip to San Marino in 2017. Excluding a couple of non-FIFA friendlies in January, Estonia have also won just 2 of their last 13 games. 4 of their 6 Nations League games ended in defeats to nil, including back-to-back losses against a relatively limited Finland.
Overall, they don’t appear to have the sort of quality needed to really cause many problems against an organised and settled Northern Ireland side. Michael O’Neill’s men have won 12 of their last 17 home internationals and backing Northern Ireland & Under 3.5 Goals looks good here, given only 4 of those matches saw four or more goals in total.

This is a vital game for both teams but for differing reasons. Norwich City hung on for a 3-2 home win over Hull City on Wednesday evening and are two points clear at the top of the Championship. It looked like being an easier night for the Canaries after taking an early 2-0 lead but they still got the three points and their fifth straight league win. 14 goals have been scored in those five games and Norwich have now scored 75 league goals for the season. This game at Rotherham is a key one for them, as second-placed Leeds United host Sheffield United who are third just hours before this game. Norwich would love a draw in that match but a Leeds win would give them the chance to win at Rotherham and go seven points clear of third spot. Away from home, City have only lost one of their last 16 league games and that was way back in August.
Rotherham United are 22nd in the table and in the bottom three. They won 2-1 at QPR on Wednesday and are only in the bottom three on goal difference from Wigan Athletic. It took a 95th minute goal to get them that vital win, their second in three league games. Only one of their last five home league games have been won and Rotherham have conceded 59 league goals this season. Only bottom-of-the-table Ipswich Town have conceded more (61) but that might change after this game. Go for Norwich to get the away win.

Must win for Arsenal as they have seen 3 defeats from their last 7 Premier League games, with United passing them in the league table. However, at home Arsenal are superb as they haven’t lost a league game since their opening weekend against Manchester City, and have 6 wins on the trot to date in the league. For Southampton, away from home they have lost 7 times this season and things will not get better at the Emirates.

Real Madrid are in excellent form being unbeaten in last 7 games. They beat Athletico Madrid 3-1 away from home. Ajax on the other side of coin have a 2-1-2 record in the last 5 games. They were hammered 6-2 recently in the league by Feyernoord. I expect Madrid to win this game quite easily.
Real Madrid has started to win again, and are closing the gap up to Barcelona and I think they can win the title. Tomorrows game against Ajax away I think they can win easily.

If City is on the 1 st place with an extra match played against Liverpool (goal 68-20), Chelsea is only in 4th place (45-23) and is fighting hard with Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal to defends the position that leads to the next edition of the UEFA Champions League. The previous round, Chelsea set himself up against Huddersfield (5-0) without any problems, but comes from modest outcomes, such as Bournemouth (0-4) and Arsenal (0-2). The tour was 2-0 for the Londoners, in a match prepared by Sarri magistral, but Chelsea's level has fallen since then and the advantage of his own field will be important on Sunday.

Prior to the winter break, St. Pauli looked in good shape. They got the better of Bochum, Furth and Magdeburg in quick succession, which allowed them to shoot up into a flattering position inside the top three. However, they lost when returning to action, which allowed Monday’s opponents, who beat Koln first game back, to overtake them in the table. That said, Union are only ahead of St. Pauli on goal difference, so Monday’s hosts won’t feel too disheartened, as a win here would see them regain third position.
