Jed Wallace proved instrumental in creating chances and it was his outswinging corner that Williams nodded down inside the six-yard box for his second goal in as many games. Forest failed to register a shot on target until early in the second half, but manager Sabri Lamouchi's decision to stick Grabban on after an hour had an immediate effect. He scored with his first touch at the end of a Tiago Silva free-kick after Joe Worrall nodded back across goal and then combined with Ameobi for what appeared to be the winner.
Guangzhou are attempting to reclaim the title they won for seven straight years before relinquishing their crown to SIPG last year, and Talisca gave Cannavaro's side the lead just before the interval.

When this pair met in Belgium, they drew 0-0. Ancelotti's men may have been disappointed to draw, but the fact that they gave very little away and were clearly the better side bodes well ahead of Tuesday's clash.
If they qualify, a team representing Russia cannot participate, but if there is a mechanism put in place, then they can apply to participate on a neutral basis, not as representatives of Russia," Jonathan Taylor, chair of WADA's compliance review committee, told a news conference. Taylor was speaking after WADA earlier on Monday banned Russia from the world's top sporting events for four years, a period that includes the next summer and winter Olympics and the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, for tampering with doping-related laboratory data.

NOT EVEN AN ANNOUNCEMENT' The Bayern fan group known as Club Nr 12 said there was "not even an announcement" in the Schalke incident. Especially in the last few weeks there have been enough racist and sexist incidents in German football stadiums where an example could have been set," it said. One thinks, for example, of the insults to Torunarigha at the Schalke match against Hertha or to Kwadwo in Muenster.

Ancelotti is no stranger to the Premier League, having won the title during his time at Chelsea, as well as the FA Cup, while he is also one of the few managers ever to have won three Champions League titles. Time for Palace v Brighton Our rolling news coverage will resume tomorrow morning, but in the meantime follow our live as Crystal Palace host Brighton in the M23 derby.
Les Athéniens are one of three teams to have beaten leaders Lens this season and they have put much of their success down to a rock solid defence. Valenciennes have conceded the least goals in Ligue 2 this season (11 in 19 matches) and have five clean sheets in their last seven games in all competitions. They are one of the lowest scoring teams in the league but that hasn't been the case recently as they have netted twelve times in their last seven matches.

A first - the statsLiverpool host Shrewsbury in a match for the first time, Their two previous meetings were both at Shrewsbury in FA Cup fourth-round ties - a 4-0 win for the Reds in February 1996 and the 2-2 draw on 26 January. In all competitions, Shrewsbury have won one of their 28 away matches against sides from the top flight (W1 D3 L24), a 1-0 League Cup victory at Leicester City in August 2014.
However, as has been mentioned, momentum has been a real issue for them as they have only managed to get points in consecutive games once, and that was their two draws in their opening two matches. Since then it has been extremely tough times for the Alsatians and we don't think the timing of the international break will have helped them. On top of this Strasbourg's away form has been just dreadful, the worst in the league as they are the only side to have picked up just one point on the road. They have lost each of their last six away games, failing to score in each game and we feel that could cost them here.
Tonbridge and Maidstone will face each other in the upcoming match in the National League South. Tonbridge this season have the following results: 7W, 7D and 12L.

The Foxes lost to both of their nearest rivals, Liverpool and Manchester City, over Christmas but since then they have won at West Ham and Newcastle in the Premier League. That showed where they are at. They are the third-best team in the Premier League and are above Chelsea, Manchester United, Tottenham and Arsenal for a reason - consistency. That's why I think they will win on Saturday, although Saints will not make it easy for them, Lawro's prediction: 2-1Hugh's prediction: 2-2Matthew's prediction: 2-0 Man Utd v NorwichManchester United are lacking a lot at the moment, including intensity, invention and quality.
Their white shirts, soaked by the evening's relentless rain, hung heavy and loose as they celebrated in front of Elland Road's Don Revie stand. The torrential downpour had aided Leeds United's winning goal, with Lee Bowyer's 88th-minute shot from 30 yards slipping out of Dida's grasp, between the AC Milan goalkeeper's legs and across the goal line as he stumbled into the post. It was a fortunate climax to a dark and dreary Champions League night in September 2000, but it was a hard-earned and well-deserved victory for David O'Leary's vibrant young side.
Given that we are where we are because we've been too easy to score against, a defender would be the obvious target, but it's not as much about who is defending but how we defend as unit. So, while a new dominant, ball-playing centre-back wouldn't go amiss, a defensive-minded midfielder to take over from Alex Tettey when those knees can manage no more would be good. I'd like to see us get Virgil van Dijk in to help out at the back and Sergio Aguero in to put some pressure on Teemu Pukki.
The balance of the team is essential and against Fiorentina, Gonzalo Higuain was more useful," he said after the 3-0 win. If we were to use all four together, it would end up sacrificing many of the positive characteristics of these players. TORINO REFLECTING ON MAZZARRI'S FUTURE Torino say they are "reflecting" on coach Walter Mazzarri's future after his side were thumped 4-0 at lowly Lecce on Sunday, having lost 7-0 at home to Atalanta the previous weekend.
I was a full running motion and he’s headed the ball against my hand. Of course if you’re running like that and the ball hits your hand with the rule like it is it’s handball but I’ve not intentionally meant to handle it. VAR have checked it and disallowed the goal – it’s a real kick in the teeth. It’s not just the thoughts from me, it’s the thoughts of every Premier League player, pretty much everyone doesn’t want VAR in the game.
Under 2.5 goals is our pick for this clash, while we are backing Fiorentina to see off a side who have failed to beat their fellow top four sides in Serie B this term. The hosts have won four of their last five home clashes in this competition, so we are backing a 1-0 victory for the home side on Tuesday.
LASK have the advantage going to this game after the first leg draw and their home form will favor them too. They have no loss in five straight games at home in the competition and they have been scoring well at home. AZ on the other hand, have struggled a bit in this competition; they have no win in their last three matches and they have struggled away from home, not just in this competition. They were second best at home and will have a bigger task here. We are backing the home side for a win.
