Brisbane Roar haven’t enjoyed the best of seasons so far, losing five of their 11 games and struggling to move into the playoff positions. They picked up a win against Western Sydney last weekend but they haven’t been able to pick up consecutive wins this season though and face a tough test this weekend.
Both Milan and Juventus are coming from losses and this being a cup game, we expect to see the two sides going all out. Milan capitulated in the second half of their loss to Inter as Juventus also fell late to Hellas Verona and the two will be hoping that doesn’t occur again. Juventus have two straight losses away from home but they remain a formidable side with a great run over Milan. The hosts Milan have not kept very many clean sheets recently, but they have a good run at home. However, we don’t feel it will be easy to down this Juventus team that has dominated them and also been good in the Coppa Italia. We expect a draw here to set the tempo for the second leg.

When I see the job he's done at Wolves, getting them promoted, making them a seriously good team to watch, Nuno would be great," said Townsend. He looks like a coach who wants to get into a player's head and turn them around and some of the Arsenal players need that. Nuno Espirito Santo's Wolves are currently sixth in the Premier League and drew 1-1 away at Arsenal in NovemberTownsend also mentioned former Liverpool, Chelsea and Newcastle boss Rafael Benitez as another strong contender, but did not think Pochettino would move and join Tottenham's fiercest rivals after more than five years in charge of Spurs.
We already can't wait. FIFA President Sepp Blatter announces Qatar as the host nation for the FIFA World Cup 2022, in Zurich December 2, 2010Reuters OK, UEFA's scheduling isn't perfect. UEFA are reportedly eyeing up June 24 and June 27 for the Europa League and Champions League finals respectively – despite the tournament being locked in the last 16 with no resumption in sight.
To do so though, they need to beat the host nation Spain. There had been concerns that this new format might not be great news for the doubles matches. That was perhaps the case early on when some matches didn't take place after the tie had already been won. However, in the closer games the doubles has provided a nail-biting finish and that could well happen in this final.
Clearly the best match of this weekend in Serie A is the Lazio vs Juventus, two teams that are in the 3rd and 2nd place, respectively. Juventus will try to get back to victories after a disappointing 2 - 2 draw at home against Sassuolo and Cristiano Ronaldo will try to lead his team to victory on this contest here. Lazio plays very good football but Juventus is clearly the better team and should be able to get the win. Nevertheless, we will take a more cautious approach here with the -0.25 Asian Handicap, a bet that will give us half stake back if there is a draw.

In training, Gento stayed out on his favoured left wing, smoking, as his manager Miguel Munoz halted play to make a point.
Home team is one of the most talented teams in this Belarusian Reserve league, but in this moment, they are not in ideal form and they are not playing too good. In last three rounds, BATE Borisov Reserves is lost all three duels, what was huge surprise for their fans. 3-0, 1-4 and 2-4 are results in last three rounds and I believe that it is time that they will became to play better.

A win to nil for the hosts is extremely tempting at around the 7/5 mark based on the number of clean sheets they have kept at San Mames, but we're instead recommending higher stakes and that punters play with a straight bat in the match betting alone, as Bilbao seek to home in on the Champions League places.
