Basaksehir warmed up to this clash with a 2-1 away win against Rizespor in the Super Lig but it will be a bigger task taking on Sporting, whose 2-0 win over Boavista elevated them to four unbeaten matches.

Does he need someone next to him who has been a manager themselves to sit with him and help him? I would say that maybe he does. It doesn’t have to be big names that come through the door in January to fix it. Apart from anything else, how many big-name players want to come to Manchester United at the present moment? I don't believe that's the answer.
Vitoria said in a statement vitoriasc. Political and sporting authorities including the league's organising body Liga Portugal had earlier condemned the incident, while the police began an investigation on Monday.

Paper Round's view: Willian is a decent player, but Chelsea's transfer policy is most likely the reason behind his expected departure to Camp Nou this summer. The London side are reluctant to offer contracts longer than one year to their players over the age of 30 years old. The Brazilian forward has admitted his desire to stay at Chelsea, but if the club are only willing to offer him one more year on his deal, it makes sense for him to start looking elsewhere for a longer and more lucrative contract.
Ararat have looked very poor since October last year with only a 2-4-6 record in the last 12 matches. The last friendly before the restart of the league ended in a 3-5 home defeat to Lokomotiv Yerevan from the second league.

Burton's chances of improving on their respectable 9th place finish seem quite slim given their performances during the first half of the campaign.

Preston are the form side and boast the best home record in the Championship. If they could learn how to get more wins away from home, they'd be in the top two. Swansea City also fit that bill and have just one win in their last seven away league matches. Preston had a bad patch towards the end of last year but have recovered well and can win this match.
The trouble flared in Monday's match when Lapadula converted an 83rd-minute penalty to cut Cagliari's lead to 2-1 and then rushed to grab the ball out of the net. Sweden international Olsen got there first and hoofed the ball away, prompting an angry remonstration from Lapadula.
