Will West Ham survive?This was a huge win for West Ham - and not just in terms of the score. Having started the game three points above the relegation zone, they have created some breathing space before the last three games of the season - and left Bournemouth and Aston Villa in big trouble. The Hammers had failed to win any of their previous seven away league games under Moyes - but they made up for it as they claimed their biggest away win in the Premier League since November 2007.

We have been transported around the globe on a journey into football's past, a time when the Premier League was a pipe dream of five big clubs and the game did not seem poorer for it. The "watchalong" has become required viewing as those involved relived that history, from the 1966 World Cup final, Euro 96 when football came home for a glorious summer and the trials, triumphs and tribulations of Scotland and Wales on the global stage.
Former captain Granit Xhaka could make his first Arsenal appearance since October in Thursday's Europa League tie against Eintracht Frankfurt. Xhaka was stripped of the captaincy after reacting angrily to jeers from Gunners fans while being substituted during a 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace. He's in the group and has the possibility to play tomorrow," said boss Unai Emery. I hope every supporter supports the team.
Ultimately, we're expecting Saturday's game to be a very open one and goals shouldn't be at a premium. Boreham Wood will not be looking to sit back on home soil whereas it's simply not on Eastleigh's nature to put men behind the ball and defend; setting the tone for an exciting match.
Victory for either side would have sent them through and Valencia went ahead at Mestalla when Carlos Soler scored in the 40th minute after team mate Maxi Gomez had missed two gilt-edged chances, but Mateo Kovacic levelled for Chelsea two minutes later.

That’s partly down to their high scoring defeats, as Lecce have conceded three or more in each of their away defeats this season. We can see Parma pulling off a big win here, as Lecce have lost by at least two goals in each of their away losses. As a result, a 3-1 home win is our pick here.

If you look at the H2H you shall see that they met here in March this year and the game ended just 2-2 in the end, but it was St. Polten who after a first half which lacked any goal from either side had the lead 2-0 in the second half but they conceded two late goals to draw 2-2 in the end. Well St. Polten started this relegation group on bottom place but in their first game pretty much against the odds they won with no less than 5-0 away from home at Tirol and their second game they drew at home 1-1 with strong Austria Vienna who are the best club in this group.
But they have failed to score more than once in 24 of their 31 Championship fixtures and were unable to grab an equaliser despite piling on the pressure in a fine second-half performance. Relive Saturday's EFL action as it happenedWigan had pulled themselves to within two points of safety following impressive back-to-back victories over Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds. However, they came up against a classy Preston side who climb back into the play-offs at the expense of Bristol City who lost at home to Birmingham on Friday.
Aston Villa have lost their last three games. Manchester City have already scored nine goals in two games against Aston Villa this season. Manchester City have only lost two of their last 21 games in this competition, both inflicted on them by Manchester United. Manchester City had a great win in midweek and now head to Wembley for the EFL Cup final.
Both teams can count on experienced and talented players who have scored many goals in Serie A, like Belotti for Torino and Zapata and Gomez for Atalanta: Atalanta comes from 8 Over games in the last 9 official matches and is conceding too many goals in the last ones, considering that they have even lost at home vs Spal; Torino is very good at home and could score at least twice, considering that they have beaten Atalanta by 2-0 in the last clash here. Both teams should have no problem to score today, so an Over seems to be really likely.
Of their 132 days in the top four, 117 have been in fourth, including each of the last 97. The most points they have been above fifth place is seven, most recently on 29 NovemberSutton: "Frank Lampard's side have had some extremely good results, but also some very bad ones, losing to West Ham, Southampton and Bournemouth at home.

The Champions League is about high finance but it is also about high football ambition. It is the place where elite players want to be. Maddison had seen that dream evaporate before his eyes. For Manchester United, a domestic season that looked on course for mediocrity until the turn of the year - before the pivotal arrival of Bruno Fernandes from Sporting Lisbon - ends in a success of sorts. And there is still the possibility to add silverware in this season's Europa League.
It was a surprising move, with the Cobblers languishing bottom of League Two, but they clinched survival on the final day thanks to a 3-1 win over his former club. People were working hard and going three months without money'The next season wasn't going to plan as Northampton hovered above the relegation zone but a few clever additions helped steer them to mid-table safety and lay the foundations for future success.
Preston are surprise contenders for a place in the Premier League, although back to back defeats have set them back. The hosts are hoping that returning home will inspire them to get back to winning ways, as they look to build on a run of three wins in four matches here. Having gone unbeaten at their own ground all season, the hosts are aiming for another victory.
Kepa questions as Chelsea falterIt is hard to escape the sense that Kepa still faces a fight to secure his future at Stamford Bridge after an uncertain season that even saw the £71m signing dropped for Willy Caballero shortly before the season went into hiatus.

Praise of Grealish must not be misconstrued as criticism of Maddison, who could have scored twice in the first half only to be thwarted by Villa goalkeeper Orland Nyland's heroics. He could have been the Foxes' hero and on his way to Wembley had it not been for the brilliance of the 29-year-old Norwegian. Grealish, however, had the most significant influence overall. He drags this Villa team with him as a creator and also the player they look to as their pressure release valve, such is his strength in possession.

That’s bad news for Atalanta, who head into this clash with a dreadful record at the back. In their four games they’ve conceded over 12 shots per game, with 24% of those converted into goals.
