Tottenham has too many watermelons under his arm - the Premier League, Europa League, FA Cup and seemed somewhere will "smoke" but "spurs" are in such good shape that somehow do not believe to screw up opposite controversial, Crystal Palace, whom he defeated twice already this season.

Ludogorets - Levski
Bulgaria - A PFG
02/21/2016 15:30 CET
In practice, this is a game that will largely decide the title in the "A" group.
If Ludogorets beat home the title will almost certainly remain in Razgrad.
However, if Levski take a surprising success, the battle will return again because serious difference of 5 points will melt to just two.
Ludogorets played 7 valuable control over their winter training in Turkey, which achieved 5 wins and 2 draws zero.
Razgrad conceded only 3 goals in this period and that in its first three meetings.
Their game against the strongest rivals Steaua Bucharest and BATE Borisov definitely startled sent Levski spies, but to win with 3: 0 those rivals is not so little.
It is clear that the champions have returned mood were definitely lost in Bruno Ribeiro, and then at Edward Eranosyan.
Georgi Dermendzhiev was able to return to the joy of the game of boys - apparently he knows how to get under their skin after all ringleader praise him.
Therefore Ludogorets began to show far more rapid and direct football.
Champions and have three consecutive victories against local residents to own audience without even conceding a goal, which gives them extra confidence before the clash.
The striker Claudiu Kesheru practicing at full speed during the week and will be ready to emerge as a starter on Sunday. Romanian blade has 10 goals in group "A", namely as he brought the point of "Gerena" against Levski in the autumn of 1: 1.
Ludogorets did not attract a single player during the winter break, and the only one who left the club was joined Blues Alexander Alexandrov.
Stoycho Stoev I had to obigrava almost entirely new team Levski after he had to cope without leavers Vlado Gadzev, Zhivko Milanov, Aymen Belaïd, Oumar Diaby, ambulances Kitambala and Denis Mahmudov, and to put those who came Sasho Aleksandrov, Srdjan Lukin, Francis Pomegranate Mehdi Burabiya, Wreaths Hristov and Justin Mengolo.
Babatunde Adenidzhi striker, who became the seventh new player in Levski, making their first workout on Wednesday. Nigeria is not in good condition and may not appear in the game on Sunday while traveling with the team.
The Dutch midfielder Jeremy December Nooyer out the composition due to injury.
Despite all the ups and downs that had Gerena, they managed to record 6 wins in 8 controls.
However, it should be noted that most of the rivals Levski were far more modest than those of Ludogorets.
"Blue" lagging five points behind leaders and active champion and only victory in Razgrad can keep real chances for the title. The loss Sofia citizens will fall behind 8 points than your opponent and will practically remain without chances for the trophy.
The same applies to possibly draw and one loss will mean that their claims simply did not have grounds.
Levski coach Stoycho Stoev was about to throw in the battle whole five debutants, which may become a win-win situation as they will go unencumbered and eager to prove themselves. Holders will be Alexander Alexandrov, Srdjan Lukin, Mehdi Burabiya, Francis Pomegranate and Ventsislav Hristov.
At the same time Ludogorets coach Georgi Dermendzhiev has an experienced and sophisticated composition. It will rely on six Brazilians in the starting 11. On top of the attack as Junior Quixada and Romanian scorer Claudiu Kesheru will remain the reserve. The door will be Vladislav Stoyanov, and before it will act Yordan Minev, Cosmin promo-, Nathanael and Wenceslas Kerchev. In midfield will act Svetoslav Dyakov and Sasha, and the front will swirl players from the country of coffee - Cafu, Marcelinho, Vanderson and Quixada.
Pick: Both Teams to Score
Home win
Roma - Palermo
Italy - Serie A
02/21/2016 21:45 CET
Roma vs Palermo key facts Real Madrid provided Roma with a reality check on Tuesday, winning 2-0 at the Stadio Olimpico, but the Giallorossi could still draw plenty of positives from an evening on which they stood toe-to-toe with Cristiano Ronaldo and co. The hosts' performance was in-keeping with those that they have produced over the last month, winning four straight in Serie A. Palermo are in a poor vein of form, having not tasted victory in their previous four league outings. The visitors are in mess after they had 7 managerial changes this season so far.
Owner Palermo again updates all imaginable and unimaginable records coaching dismissals, but sitsilitsev problems in the game, this does not become less. Roma, in turn, on the contrary, gained the necessary stability and returned to fight for a place in the top three. On the eve of "Wolves" had a match against Real Madrid, which clearly showed that "Giallorossi" continue to grow and grow. Because you can emphasize the last match that Roma with Dzeko at the base and without it - these are two different team. Given the appetite Bosnian carousing, he may well become the protagonist of the upcoming match and give the capital's team another three points. After these defeats, as in a meeting with Real Madrid, the team usually go out on the field is extremely focused and in a good evil, playing at its maximum, to prove in the first place to themselves that they are so bad they are. As a result, we have all the elements to witness another victory wards Luciano Spalletti.
Forecast: Home win
Chelsea - Manchester City
England - FA Cup
02/21/2016 18:00 CET
On Sunday at 18:00 CET in contention for victory and to continue forward in the FA Cup against one another on the field face two teams respectively representatives of the Premier League of England in the face of the home of Chelsea and their guests from Manchester City . These two rivals occupy in the table ranking 12 respectively - oh and fourth with assets of under 33 and won 47 points. Today they definitely expect much on the field because in their last few games they even play dynamic attacking football and failed to realize they have established positions.
Chelsea goes in ascending line under the guidance of Guus Hiddink.
Tuesday lost 1: 2 from PSG, but kept their chances to move forward in the Champions League.
Before it was lost by mid-December or in 11 games.
Chelsea had no problems in the last round of the FA Cup, which defeated MK Dons 5: 1 as a guest.
Londoners, however, do not know the taste of victory in their last 4 games against the team from Manchester - 2 draws and 2 losses.
Kurt Zouma, Radamel Falcao and captain John Terry are out due to injuries.
Manchester City reached the 1/8 finals of the Cup after a trouble-free victory over Aston Villa with 4: 0 away.
Graduates of Manuel Pellegrini, however, lost their last two matches in the Premier League, but against serious opponents - Leicester (1: 3) and Tottenham (1: 2).
However, citizens continue fighting for an unprecedented four trophies this season.
Pellegrini is likely to rest some of the holders with a view of three very important upcoming match team, among which is the final of the League Cup on February 28.
Top striker Sergio Aguero and captain Vincent Kompany is expected not to play on Sunday.
Chelsea, after a horrific start to the season, lost any chance of the title, and even a slight stabilization of the appointment of Guus Hiddink can not save the season in the Premiership - not only that Leicester are 20 points ahead, and 4tite, Manchester City are targets 14 and hardly even the most optimistic among the supporters of the "Blue" hope even to enter the Top 4.
The situation in the Champions League is not extremely rosy after the team lost away to PSG 1: 2, but at least goal away from home gives a dose of tranquility players Hiddink. However, it shows how even pass 1/8 finals, Chelsea will fail to do something memorable in the Champions League. And after everything said here, perhaps FA Cup remains the only chance for Chelsea to win a trophy this season.
The loss of PSG ended 12 matches without defeat for the "Blue" (6 wins and 6 draws) and to be seen how they will cope with the situation. John Terry and Kurt Zouma miss the game and although Branislav Ivanovic cope very well the position of central defender during the week, the defense of "Blue" is still not accustomed to playing without their captain and we can expect tense situations in front of home crowd . Chelsea have conceded at least one goal in 6 of their last 7 meetings "Stamford Bridge" in the meantime have made at least 2 goals in 7 of their last 8 households and we can hardly expect this tradition to be broken here.
Manchester City are still in the title race in England, but this 4th place and 6 points liability of Leicester, and 4 of Arsenal and Tottenham might mean that "Citizens" have to hope for a miracle to end of season and to surpass the 3 teams. Unlike its rivals, however, City have not yet played its first 1/8 final match of the Champions League, which will happen on Wednesday, where their opponent will be far more penetrable by PSG team Dynamo Kiev, and " citizens "can finally hope for a satisfactory performance in Europe. That is why Manuel Pellegrini is expected to rely on much spare players who rarely get a chance to shine in order to keep the forces of key players for the clash in Kiev. FA Cup is certainly the low priority event for "Citizens", especially since they have already secured their participation in the final of the other cup in England - this League and is unlikely team will be able to fight to win all 4 tournaments . And after everything said here, we think we can give preference to the success of the hosts.
Apart from the defeat with 1: 2 by PSG in the first Eighth meeting in the Champions League, Chelsea perform very stable under the guidance of Guus Hiddink. "Blue" last lost at home on 14 December and the second half of the season it seems that it would be happy for Londoners.
Guus Hiddink won the trophy in this tournament in previous stays at Chelsea in 2009 and are still unbeaten at the head of the team in this race.
The hosts are weakened in defense because of injuries to John Terry and Kurt Zouma.
Given the current form of both teams seem strange that Chelsea are so serious favorites for victory, but the press conference before the game coach Manuel Pellegrini City announced that it will rely on more of their reserves because of the upcoming match of the team in the Champions League.
"Citizens' lost their last two league matches of Leicester and Tottenham and have earned 15 points in their last ten games.
Interestingly, the shape of the team decline since it became clear that Manuel Pellegrini will be released after the season.
Kevin De Bruyne, Fabian Delph and Jesus Navas are injured while Wilfried Bony and Bakary Sagna are questionable.
Four of the last five matches between the two teams ended with marked under three goals. The exception is their last clash, which was won by City 3: 0 during the nightmarish period of "blue" at the beginning of the season.
We are waiting for the confrontation of teams that have a lot of ambition, but things are not going very well. Especially in "Chelsea". Both coaches at the end of the season in any case, leave their posts, but they certainly want anything to win. Championship it is unlikely Champions League, most likely, no, well, that's the FA Cup - it please. The "citizens" a lot of injured, and the general state of the team for some sluggish, and it should take advantage of "aristocrats" who with Hiddink transformed before our eyes. And nothing wrong with that, "Chelsea" appeared invisible man Azar, who scored more than even played polmatcha six months Welbeck. Generally, and without Azar team looks fine. A replay of this club is not necessary, since so little strength of the players. So everything should be solved today, and everything will be decided, in my opinion, in favor of "Chelsea".
Chelsea had the hardest fight in the French capital, and got a pretty good result for itself. In the championship of all it is even better - unbeaten "blue" is already 10 matches. Another thing is that the "aristocrats" are still at the bottom of the standings, but this result should soon change for the benefit of today's owners.Guus Hiddink in a short time managed to mobilize a team and overcome the crisis - it's a fact. With each match Londoners are more confident in their abilities, so it is possible that the remaining length of the season will be marked by the "blue" star. The main problem for the Dutch expert - is to win the trophy and try to climb to fourth place in the championship. Among the possible trophies at Chelsea stayed Champions League and the FA Cup; it is clear that victory in the main European Cup will be akin to a miracle, and that's the oldest tournament of "Old World" it is possible to try to win.Chelsea - Manchester City: the forecast for the match from readers
Chelsea (0) - 1.38
Manchester City (0) - 3.33View resultsOne of the biggest problems of "aristocrats" - John Terry is injured and Kurt Zouma. Without its two main stoppers, the capital club will be very difficult in the rest of the season; if the Frenchman will play only in the beginning of the next, the heart of British football will recover within a week. As demonstrated by meeting against PSG, the center is now unopposed will play Gary Cahill and Branislav Ivanovic, a place on the left will take Rahman Baba and the right moves Cesar Azpilicueta. In other words, the entire defense, "blue" survive the transformation, which can not but affect its efficiency and reliability. Considering that the fight with the Parisians missed Matic, there is no doubt that in this game we will see it from the first minute, and most likely, the Serb will replace Cesc Fabregas. His well-deserved rest have to get Diego Costa and Willian, they are intended to replace the two young and already proved themselves a footballer, in the face of Kennedy and Traore.Chelsea - Manchester City: projected compositionsChelsea: Begovic - Baba Ivanovic, Cahill, Azpilicueta - Matic, Mikel - Hazard, Oscar, Kennedy - TraoreMS: Caballero - Zabaleta, Otamendi, Demichelis, Clichy - Fernando Fernandinho - Garcia, Celina, Sterling - IheanachoOut of the gameChelsea: Zuma, Terry FalcaoMS: Nasri, Mangala, Boni, Navas De Bruyne, Delph, SanyaManuel Pellegrini immediately after the draw, said that, most likely, his team will put the second part on the cup match with Chelsea, because he does not see, otherwise it to maintain the freshness of his team on the eve of the most important matches in the championship and the Champions League. Virtually no alternative, this option did the hardest staffing situation: currently in the hospital City is 7 players the basics. With great probability, we will see some young and interesting players, such as the virgin and Garcia, but it will inevitably impact on the team level of the game."Aristocrats" just will not work in this game, as in the last match against PSG. The team of Guus Hiddink will have to play the first number to break polurezervny part of "citizens", which is the strength of the London team. Chelsea - unconditional favorite, and very loyal attitude of the City for the tournament must play a decisive role.

Borussia Dortmund is second in the standings with a solid advance of 13 points ahead of third Bayer.
Tomas Tuhel company and not conceding a goal in their last three away games in the Bundesliga.
In the previous three meetings Borussia in the league in goals scored below 2.5.
Second-placed Bundesliga Borussia Dortmund travel to Bayer Leverkusen third and the match is of paramount importance for the hosts. They are lagging behind targets 13 points than your opponent, but the teams below them are very close and the fight for places entitling participation in the Champions League will be more fierce.
"Apirinite" are in a great series of six matches unbeaten and won four of them. Last week they were down 0:1 score against Darmstadt 98, but eventually managed to turn the game and win three points. A few team achieved a valuable victory with 1: 0 away to Sporting Lisbon in the first match of 1/16 finals in the Europa League.
As seen above, Bayer Leverkusen are on 13 points from goals Borussia Dortmund in the standings and is extremely unlikely that this difference can be made up to the end of the campaign. The goal before the team is more than clear - third place, which, however, have appetites and five team. "Aspirin" are unbeaten at home in four games, which includes clean sheets against Bayern Munich, Hannover 96 and Borussia Monchengladbach.
Borussia Dortmund are also in good form, recording four consecutive matches without defeat in the Bundesliga. They won against Borussia Monchengladbach, Ingolstadt and Hannover 96, and a draw in their visit of Hertha Berlin.
"Yellow and black" have won 48 points in 21 games and doing much better season than last year when the campaign managed to gain 46 points. The good news for visitors is that in camp no new injured players and will be able to rely on the best in this clash.
Statistics in direct duels between Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund shows absolute equality - at 26 wins for each team and 21 draws. In recent years the Dortmund team that dominated during visits of 'BayArena' last victory of "aspirin" against them dates back to 2007. This is the derby between teams in great form, which are located at the top of the standings. Both teams are renowned for attacking and easy on the eye football and I do not expect anything different on Sunday.
Derby rounds in the German Cup. Borussia are in second place with a total of 48 points, while Bayer are third with 35 points to his account. In 2016, Borussia recorded 4 wins and 1 draw, while their opponent has 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. The yellow and black won the match in the autumn convincing 3: 0. Guests are the team with more chances of success.
Perhaps today against the "Bayer" played by future team player "Ufa" Zinchenko. It sounds funny, and of course, more likely, all this duck from Dzyuba discharge in the "Barcelona" or Falcao in "Spartacus", but, nevertheless, there is no smoke without fire. "Borussia" confidently takes the second place and, most likely, it will not give anyone, but there are also huge and almost concrete possibility that the second and higher places "bumble" does not soar. "Bayer" is the third, but the gap from "Borussia" is 13 points.
"Pharmacists" are fighting for the preservation of this position and nothing else do not think. Of course, this fundamental opposition, but today it is more important than victory in "Bayer". Nevertheless. "Borussia" points will not be scattered. When Tuhelj "bumblebees" themselves began to control the ball and not play number two on the counterattack. It also likes to do, "Bayer". In general, we are waiting for cool German showdown.
Both teams claim to be the eldest son of the immortal king, in the face of Bayern Munich, and while it has to be very, very far away. What Levenkruzen that Dortmund played on the eve of their meeting in the Europa League, but if the "black and yellow" examined a enemy in their stadium, the "red-black" did not close the way to the Pyrenees. In this regard, a slight advantage in terms of physical fitness, which will have a guest side. Surprisingly both, opponents of the Germans were the Portuguese, and was twice recorded the result in favor of the clubs from Germany.
With the return to operation Ömer Toprak, "aspirin" is not an example to become safer and stronger. But before Bayer to get stronger as the injured Javier Hernandez, who in a few months, was the best player in the composition Levenkruzena. Today, Roger Schmidt's team maintains a crazy competition by immediately 6-8 teams fighting for the line 3 in the championship. It is clear that in this fight, "pharmacists" favorites, but this status has yet to be confirmed, it turns out not always.
Slightly wilted lately Hakan Çalhanoğlu, second place in the Mehmedi and Brandt, given the fact that during the meeting with Dortmund, will be necessary speed and endurance, the appearance of the Turks in the start, is a big question. Continue treatment and Lars Bender, who, like his brother, is in the camp of the opponents of today, still can not cope with his physical condition.
Leverkusen - Borussia Dortmund projected compositions
Leverkusen: Leno - hardly Toprak, Ta, Wendell - Mehmedi, Kampl, Kramer, Belarabi - Kiessling, BrandtDortmund: Bürki - Gintner, Sokratis, Hummels, Schmelzer - Weigl - Mkhitaryan, Gundogan, Kagawa, Royce - Aubameyang
Out of the gameBayer: Cruz, Charles Aránguiz, Bender, ChicharitoDortmund: Shaheen, S. Bender
Dortmund digested load winter off-season and with each match is running faster and faster. The second place was "Bumblebee" is no longer in danger, so Borussia were interesting: two cups and matches like today, against the top teams of the Bundesliga, where it is possible to test themselves and their capabilities.
In recent excellent form Marco Reus scored. German midfielder scores and gives in three matches in a row. No less impressive looks and efficiently and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, who spends his best season in the "bumblebees. Slightly lost heart Aubameyang but he begins to rebound, so the upcoming fight, we again have to see just rushing forward, "yellow-black" sports car.
Leverkusen - Borussia Dortmund Bayer forecast readers (0) - 2.38 Borussia (0) - 1.65
View resultsIn recent years, the meeting of these two teams get very stubborn and combative. A total of three full-time out of ten matches, the teams exchanged goals scored, and mostly played in the not too effective football. But now everything should be on the contrary. Bayer "blood from his nose," it is necessary to collect points, and over Borussia nothing prevails and it can afford to play in the fun.

Lille does not know the taste of defeat in recent 4 rounds of the French championship in which the record win and 3 draws.
Last weekend Frederic Antonetti and Co. slipped heroic goalless draw by PSG leader in the middle of Paris.

Lyon won their last 3 matches in Ligue 1 and with a difference of 3 goals in each of them.
The team of Bruno Zhenesio climbs steadily in the standings and is now just 2 points from the third Nice.

The problem now is that Tolis is out due to injury.
Olympic also failed to win even once in their last eight visits to "Lille Metropole".
Alexandre Lakazet who has 10 goals this season, will almost certainly has the edge in attack guests.

Atletico Madrid - Villarreal

02/21/2016 21:30 CET
Few goals from Atletico Madrid - Villarreal!
Atletico Madrid welcome Villarreal in a match of the 25th round of the Spanish Primera Division.
The last 4 games between these two teams in which they exchanged their 2 wins, finished with an identical score of 1:0.
Atletico Madrid took 6 wins in their last seven league games, including the last two rounds.
The team of Diego Simeone has only one point advance to the third Real Madrid in the table and is 6 behind leader Barcelona.
Simeone will be on Sunday without the suspended Jose Jimenez and injured Yannick Carrasco, Augusto Fernandez and Tiago.
Fernando Torres is expected to partner Antoine Griezmann in the attack at the expense of Luciano Viet.
Villarreal does not know the taste of loss in the last 11 rounds of the Spanish championship.
The team of Marcelino Garcia Toral did not commit goal in 5 of their last 6 games in the league.
Daniele Bonera is back after suspension, but injuries stopped from participating Jonathan dos Santos, Samuel and Eric Bailey.
In prior positions guests will probably see Leo Baptishtao and Cedric Bakambyu.
Atletico Madrid are not entitled to error if they want to stay with chances for the title. Their opponent is strong, but players under the leadership of Diego Simeone proved over the years that can play heavily under pressure. Fans of the Vicente Calderon will surely contribute to the victory of the home team.
Villarreal still played on Thursday in the first leg of 1/16 Europa League, and now they will be meeting with Madrid grandee. Meeting against the Neapolitans took away from the "yellow" a lot of energy, and only a magnificent free kick by Denis Suarez made it possible "submarine" to win this match. Beating the "mattress" will be even more difficult, especially given the accumulated fatigue. It's no secret that a maximum of 1.5 Villarreal ended, so the battle in two tournaments, can be a double edged sword. In the first part of the season wards Garcia Toral made a good start, so even if they lose today, nothing terrible will happen. "Indians" only to play his first match in the Champions League 1/8. In addition to this, in Madrid rivals in a very modest PSV, who put it mildly, by the forces of the collective Diego Simeone. Villarreal does not pass three rounds in a row, it's time to Atletico rectify this situation, and at the same time unhook one of the main persecutors.
Forecast: Home win or draw
Atletico to score over 1 goal
Malaga - Real Madrid
Spain - Liga BBVA

Real Madrid is dependent on Cristiano Ronaldo!
Real Madrid is too dependent on the shape of the top attacker Cristiano Ronaldo believes former club sports director Jorge Valdano.
This leads to an imbalance in the team and hence volatility in already achieved results.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored a victory over AS Roma 2:0 as a guest in the first match of the 1/8 finals of the Champions League on Wednesday night.
But he is often criticized for not marked in important meetings of his team.
"Real Madrid is too dependent on Cristiano and it does not help to maintain balance in the team. Madrid is in a form only when Ronaldo was in shape. This phenomenon is repeated in the last five years," said Valdano.
Cristiano Ronaldo failed to score in 15 of 31 matches for Real Madrid this season, with 9 of those 15 games "white" did not reach success.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid win all matches in which Ronaldo scored.
In fact, Ronaldo has scored 21 goals this season in La Liga, two-thirds of those hits are marked on the "Santiago Bernabeu".
Ronaldo scores a goal during the visit of Real Madrid in La Liga on 29 November.
The last time he scored two goals in the visit of Eibar on "Ipurua."
Statistics are uncompromising to Ronaldo and reveals that his contribution is not as big since the beginning of this season.
Ronaldo has scored in less than half the matches of the team for the season.
He has 30 goals in 29 games in all competitions, but hits it actually came in 14 matches, making the contribution of Karim Benzema much more significant as the Frenchman marks a very regular basis.
Even in his worst season in this respect - 2010-11, Ronaldo had scored in 51.8% of meetings up until now the percentage drops to 48.2%.
In each of the previous campaigns the leader of the team held more than 60% in this respect, as his record was from 2013-14, and scored goals in 72% of matches.
So far most goals from Cristiano come against weaker rivals.
He scored 8 goals in two meetings with Espanyol, scored 4 times against Malmo and 3 times against Shakhtar.
In five other matches even scored two goals.
Impact on the Madrid coaching staff hand Zinedine Zidane, every day there are more and more. French tutor, not only managed to establish an atmosphere in the team, but also to bring fresh ideas to it. In the championship of the "Blancos" still have a chance at the title, but you can no longer back away. Malaga, frankly, is not present, but the past transfer window, has considerably weakened "anchovies". Real Madrid are now on the move, and made sure of the guest victory over Roma, and most importantly, keeping their goal intact. The only thing that can prevent the capital's team to take three points - is the lack of Varan. "Creamy" should at least not lose, but if they want to get to the Catalans, then you can no longer make mistakes.
The hosts lost 0-1 away to Villarreal in the previous round and snapped a second consecutive success in the championship. With 30 points (8-6-10) Malaga is 11th place in the trailing 8 points 6th Celta Vigo, while their stadium the team conceded only three defeats in 11 matches so far, recording 5 wins more and 3 draws, winning 3 of their last 4 households without allowing a goal from Atletico Madrid, Celta and Getafe and lost in this period only by champion Barcelona 1-2 a month ago.Weekdays Real record 10th straight game without a loss and fourth consecutive victory in all competitions, beating Roma in Rome 2-0 in the second round of the Champions League. In La Liga Real Madrid with nine matches unbeaten, which achieved 7 wins, including the last 3 rounds and now lags behind 10 points from the Catalans and only 1 point from city rivals Atletico Madrid. Backlog of White Ballet is mainly due to the weak performances of the team away from Madrid, where Real has made only 5 wins in 11 visits, recording another 4 draws and conceded losses Sevilla and Villarreal by 1 goal difference, and with success in his last visit in Granada 2-1 two weeks ago footballers Zinedine Zidane snapped a three consecutive games without a complete success away from home - the loss of Villarreal and draws with Valencia and Betis.Before the start of this championship Royal Club had 5 consecutive win over Malaga for the championship, including their last two visits in 2014 by 1 goal difference. In September last year, Malaga managed to escape point Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid today Real Madrid will have to seek partial revenge for that draw, which is also the reason for the huge backlog of White longed from first place in the Primera.

Schalke 04 - Stuttgart
Germany - Bundesliga
02/21/2016 18:30 CET
Last week, Schalke 04 lost 1:2 enter the form team of Mainz, which was a blow to the ambitions of the team in their fight for third place. This weekend "royal blue" accept Stuttgart, which also are in incredibly good shape and recorded victory after victory in the championship.
The defeat of Mainz was the third for Schalke in the last six matches in the Bundesliga and it lost points would help greatly in the battle for one of the places entitling participation in the Champions League. Six teams have collected within five points difference, with Schalke 04 are located on the fifth and behind two points from Bayer Leverkusen and Hertha Berlin, but lead with six located on 11th place Stuttgart.
As a whole "royal blue" play a stable home, recording 6 wins from 10 games and are 3 success in their last 4 households, losing only Werder Bremen. Top striker team Class-Jan Huntelaar still can not find shape in his last scored goal dates back to December last year. Apart from long-term injured Atsuto Uchida, Mark Hyoger, Matthias nastasic and Benedikt Höwedes, all other players in the home are healthy and ready for this important match.
Stuttgart showed amazing game in recent months and are in a series of five consecutive wins in the Bundesliga. The team was on the bottom in the standings, but thanks to these results climb to mid-table.
"Schwab" is the only team in Germany, who won all their matches in the new year, and some players excelled with his performances. The luxury Rupp midfielder has four assists and one goal to his account, and Philip Kostic had three hits and one Goal pass. Top striker team Daniel Didavi (9 goals) is back in the composition after serving a penalty, but unfortunately for less than a week another blade team Daniel Ginchek get a new severe injury during training and will be out of land half a year.
A tie is rare in clashes between Schalke 04 and Stuttgart. Only 14 of the 91 matches are completed in a draw by Schalke has 35 wins and Stuttgart 42. In the last six matches no one draw, and "royal blue" have recorded 4 wins and 2 losses allowed. The hosts are involved in an increasingly bloody struggle for a place in the Champions League next year, while it seems that the battle of "Swabia" to remain in the elite of Germany finally ended.
We believe that guests in this form have a very good chance to win. They are a series of five consecutive wins for the championship, while their opponents suffered two defeats in four matches after the resumption of the league. Equivalent match, but factor directs us to the guests.
In England all admire the feats of "Leicester" in Germany itself has drawn attention to forgotten by all and has long been "Stuttgart". The team won five straight wins and secured residence in the Bundesliga, it is iron, but now "Swabians" will try to save the season and try to get into the top six. From the sixth "Swabians" places just six points separates. "Schalke" had a tough match with "Shakhtar" in the Europa League and now "cobalt" will be very hard. On the one hand, the need to win to stay in the top four of the championship, but it may simply not enough forces, both physical and emotional. But the guests a second wind and I am sure that today they just run across the opponent. Maybe even on the field will come Ukrainian Boris last name Drag and "drag" the game. And even if it does not come out, it would win, "Stuttgart".

"Bats" in the course begin to take themselves. Two wins in a row, should inspire confidence wards Gary Neville and give his boys a positive impetus, which was lacking in recent years. With all due respect to Granada, if the "Orange" will play in their strength, the islanders did not rival Valencia. In addition, the infirmary, "bat" is completely empty, and every player is ready to play. Granada, on the contrary, is now on the decline, losing three games in a row, even if they had to play against Real Madrid, Villarreal and Sociedad. At the islanders will have time to collect your points, and this unpleasant calendar interval, they just need to survive.

Tottenham has too many watermelons under his arm - the Premier League, Europa League, FA Cup and seemed somewhere will "smoke" but "spurs" are in such good shape that somehow do not believe to screw up opposite controversial, Crystal Palace, whom he defeated twice already this season. I do not know whether Pochetinyo started the season with the idea of winning a trophy, but his team progresses so that now surely ambitions Argentine and his players have swelled enough to fight selflessly in every race in which participate.
Forecast: home win

Ludogorets - Levski
Bulgaria - A PFG
02/21/2016 15:30 CET
In practice, this is a game that will largely decide the title in the "A" group.
If Ludogorets beat home the title will almost certainly remain in Razgrad.
However, if Levski take a surprising success, the battle will return again because serious difference of 5 points will melt to just two.
Ludogorets played 7 valuable control over their winter training in Turkey, which achieved 5 wins and 2 draws zero.
Razgrad conceded only 3 goals in this period and that in its first three meetings.
Their game against the strongest rivals Steaua Bucharest and BATE Borisov definitely startled sent Levski spies, but to win with 3: 0 those rivals is not so little.
It is clear that the champions have returned mood were definitely lost in Bruno Ribeiro, and then at Edward Eranosyan.
Georgi Dermendzhiev was able to return to the joy of the game of boys - apparently he knows how to get under their skin after all ringleader praise him.
Therefore Ludogorets began to show far more rapid and direct football.
Champions and have three consecutive victories against local residents to own audience without even conceding a goal, which gives them extra confidence before the clash.
The striker Claudiu Kesheru practicing at full speed during the week and will be ready to emerge as a starter on Sunday. Romanian blade has 10 goals in group "A", namely as he brought the point of "Gerena" against Levski in the autumn of 1: 1.
Ludogorets did not attract a single player during the winter break, and the only one who left the club was joined Blues Alexander Alexandrov.
Stoycho Stoev I had to obigrava almost entirely new team Levski after he had to cope without leavers Vlado Gadzev, Zhivko Milanov, Aymen Belaïd, Oumar Diaby, ambulances Kitambala and Denis Mahmudov, and to put those who came Sasho Aleksandrov, Srdjan Lukin, Francis Pomegranate Mehdi Burabiya, Wreaths Hristov and Justin Mengolo.
Babatunde Adenidzhi striker, who became the seventh new player in Levski, making their first workout on Wednesday. Nigeria is not in good condition and may not appear in the game on Sunday while traveling with the team.
The Dutch midfielder Jeremy December Nooyer out the composition due to injury.
Despite all the ups and downs that had Gerena, they managed to record 6 wins in 8 controls.
However, it should be noted that most of the rivals Levski were far more modest than those of Ludogorets.
"Blue" lagging five points behind leaders and active champion and only victory in Razgrad can keep real chances for the title. The loss Sofia citizens will fall behind 8 points than your opponent and will practically remain without chances for the trophy.
The same applies to possibly draw and one loss will mean that their claims simply did not have grounds.
Levski coach Stoycho Stoev was about to throw in the battle whole five debutants, which may become a win-win situation as they will go unencumbered and eager to prove themselves. Holders will be Alexander Alexandrov, Srdjan Lukin, Mehdi Burabiya, Francis Pomegranate and Ventsislav Hristov.
At the same time Ludogorets coach Georgi Dermendzhiev has an experienced and sophisticated composition. It will rely on six Brazilians in the starting 11. On top of the attack as Junior Quixada and Romanian scorer Claudiu Kesheru will remain the reserve. The door will be Vladislav Stoyanov, and before it will act Yordan Minev, Cosmin promo-, Nathanael and Wenceslas Kerchev. In midfield will act Svetoslav Dyakov and Sasha, and the front will swirl players from the country of coffee - Cafu, Marcelinho, Vanderson and Quixada.
Pick: Both Teams to Score
Home win
Roma - Palermo
Italy - Serie A
02/21/2016 21:45 CET
Roma vs Palermo key facts Real Madrid provided Roma with a reality check on Tuesday, winning 2-0 at the Stadio Olimpico, but the Giallorossi could still draw plenty of positives from an evening on which they stood toe-to-toe with Cristiano Ronaldo and co. The hosts' performance was in-keeping with those that they have produced over the last month, winning four straight in Serie A. Palermo are in a poor vein of form, having not tasted victory in their previous four league outings. The visitors are in mess after they had 7 managerial changes this season so far.
Owner Palermo again updates all imaginable and unimaginable records coaching dismissals, but sitsilitsev problems in the game, this does not become less. Roma, in turn, on the contrary, gained the necessary stability and returned to fight for a place in the top three. On the eve of "Wolves" had a match against Real Madrid, which clearly showed that "Giallorossi" continue to grow and grow. Because you can emphasize the last match that Roma with Dzeko at the base and without it - these are two different team. Given the appetite Bosnian carousing, he may well become the protagonist of the upcoming match and give the capital's team another three points. After these defeats, as in a meeting with Real Madrid, the team usually go out on the field is extremely focused and in a good evil, playing at its maximum, to prove in the first place to themselves that they are so bad they are. As a result, we have all the elements to witness another victory wards Luciano Spalletti.
Forecast: Home win
Chelsea - Manchester City
England - FA Cup
02/21/2016 18:00 CET
On Sunday at 18:00 CET in contention for victory and to continue forward in the FA Cup against one another on the field face two teams respectively representatives of the Premier League of England in the face of the home of Chelsea and their guests from Manchester City . These two rivals occupy in the table ranking 12 respectively - oh and fourth with assets of under 33 and won 47 points. Today they definitely expect much on the field because in their last few games they even play dynamic attacking football and failed to realize they have established positions.
Chelsea goes in ascending line under the guidance of Guus Hiddink.
Tuesday lost 1: 2 from PSG, but kept their chances to move forward in the Champions League.
Before it was lost by mid-December or in 11 games.
Chelsea had no problems in the last round of the FA Cup, which defeated MK Dons 5: 1 as a guest.
Londoners, however, do not know the taste of victory in their last 4 games against the team from Manchester - 2 draws and 2 losses.
Kurt Zouma, Radamel Falcao and captain John Terry are out due to injuries.
Manchester City reached the 1/8 finals of the Cup after a trouble-free victory over Aston Villa with 4: 0 away.
Graduates of Manuel Pellegrini, however, lost their last two matches in the Premier League, but against serious opponents - Leicester (1: 3) and Tottenham (1: 2).
However, citizens continue fighting for an unprecedented four trophies this season.
Pellegrini is likely to rest some of the holders with a view of three very important upcoming match team, among which is the final of the League Cup on February 28.
Top striker Sergio Aguero and captain Vincent Kompany is expected not to play on Sunday.
Chelsea, after a horrific start to the season, lost any chance of the title, and even a slight stabilization of the appointment of Guus Hiddink can not save the season in the Premiership - not only that Leicester are 20 points ahead, and 4tite, Manchester City are targets 14 and hardly even the most optimistic among the supporters of the "Blue" hope even to enter the Top 4.
The situation in the Champions League is not extremely rosy after the team lost away to PSG 1: 2, but at least goal away from home gives a dose of tranquility players Hiddink. However, it shows how even pass 1/8 finals, Chelsea will fail to do something memorable in the Champions League. And after everything said here, perhaps FA Cup remains the only chance for Chelsea to win a trophy this season.
The loss of PSG ended 12 matches without defeat for the "Blue" (6 wins and 6 draws) and to be seen how they will cope with the situation. John Terry and Kurt Zouma miss the game and although Branislav Ivanovic cope very well the position of central defender during the week, the defense of "Blue" is still not accustomed to playing without their captain and we can expect tense situations in front of home crowd . Chelsea have conceded at least one goal in 6 of their last 7 meetings "Stamford Bridge" in the meantime have made at least 2 goals in 7 of their last 8 households and we can hardly expect this tradition to be broken here.
Manchester City are still in the title race in England, but this 4th place and 6 points liability of Leicester, and 4 of Arsenal and Tottenham might mean that "Citizens" have to hope for a miracle to end of season and to surpass the 3 teams. Unlike its rivals, however, City have not yet played its first 1/8 final match of the Champions League, which will happen on Wednesday, where their opponent will be far more penetrable by PSG team Dynamo Kiev, and " citizens "can finally hope for a satisfactory performance in Europe. That is why Manuel Pellegrini is expected to rely on much spare players who rarely get a chance to shine in order to keep the forces of key players for the clash in Kiev. FA Cup is certainly the low priority event for "Citizens", especially since they have already secured their participation in the final of the other cup in England - this League and is unlikely team will be able to fight to win all 4 tournaments . And after everything said here, we think we can give preference to the success of the hosts.
Apart from the defeat with 1: 2 by PSG in the first Eighth meeting in the Champions League, Chelsea perform very stable under the guidance of Guus Hiddink. "Blue" last lost at home on 14 December and the second half of the season it seems that it would be happy for Londoners.
Guus Hiddink won the trophy in this tournament in previous stays at Chelsea in 2009 and are still unbeaten at the head of the team in this race.
The hosts are weakened in defense because of injuries to John Terry and Kurt Zouma.
Given the current form of both teams seem strange that Chelsea are so serious favorites for victory, but the press conference before the game coach Manuel Pellegrini City announced that it will rely on more of their reserves because of the upcoming match of the team in the Champions League.
"Citizens' lost their last two league matches of Leicester and Tottenham and have earned 15 points in their last ten games.
Interestingly, the shape of the team decline since it became clear that Manuel Pellegrini will be released after the season.
Kevin De Bruyne, Fabian Delph and Jesus Navas are injured while Wilfried Bony and Bakary Sagna are questionable.
Four of the last five matches between the two teams ended with marked under three goals. The exception is their last clash, which was won by City 3: 0 during the nightmarish period of "blue" at the beginning of the season.
We are waiting for the confrontation of teams that have a lot of ambition, but things are not going very well. Especially in "Chelsea". Both coaches at the end of the season in any case, leave their posts, but they certainly want anything to win. Championship it is unlikely Champions League, most likely, no, well, that's the FA Cup - it please. The "citizens" a lot of injured, and the general state of the team for some sluggish, and it should take advantage of "aristocrats" who with Hiddink transformed before our eyes. And nothing wrong with that, "Chelsea" appeared invisible man Azar, who scored more than even played polmatcha six months Welbeck. Generally, and without Azar team looks fine. A replay of this club is not necessary, since so little strength of the players. So everything should be solved today, and everything will be decided, in my opinion, in favor of "Chelsea".
Chelsea had the hardest fight in the French capital, and got a pretty good result for itself. In the championship of all it is even better - unbeaten "blue" is already 10 matches. Another thing is that the "aristocrats" are still at the bottom of the standings, but this result should soon change for the benefit of today's owners.Guus Hiddink in a short time managed to mobilize a team and overcome the crisis - it's a fact. With each match Londoners are more confident in their abilities, so it is possible that the remaining length of the season will be marked by the "blue" star. The main problem for the Dutch expert - is to win the trophy and try to climb to fourth place in the championship. Among the possible trophies at Chelsea stayed Champions League and the FA Cup; it is clear that victory in the main European Cup will be akin to a miracle, and that's the oldest tournament of "Old World" it is possible to try to win.Chelsea - Manchester City: the forecast for the match from readers
Chelsea (0) - 1.38
Manchester City (0) - 3.33View resultsOne of the biggest problems of "aristocrats" - John Terry is injured and Kurt Zouma. Without its two main stoppers, the capital club will be very difficult in the rest of the season; if the Frenchman will play only in the beginning of the next, the heart of British football will recover within a week. As demonstrated by meeting against PSG, the center is now unopposed will play Gary Cahill and Branislav Ivanovic, a place on the left will take Rahman Baba and the right moves Cesar Azpilicueta. In other words, the entire defense, "blue" survive the transformation, which can not but affect its efficiency and reliability. Considering that the fight with the Parisians missed Matic, there is no doubt that in this game we will see it from the first minute, and most likely, the Serb will replace Cesc Fabregas. His well-deserved rest have to get Diego Costa and Willian, they are intended to replace the two young and already proved themselves a footballer, in the face of Kennedy and Traore.Chelsea - Manchester City: projected compositionsChelsea: Begovic - Baba Ivanovic, Cahill, Azpilicueta - Matic, Mikel - Hazard, Oscar, Kennedy - TraoreMS: Caballero - Zabaleta, Otamendi, Demichelis, Clichy - Fernando Fernandinho - Garcia, Celina, Sterling - IheanachoOut of the gameChelsea: Zuma, Terry FalcaoMS: Nasri, Mangala, Boni, Navas De Bruyne, Delph, SanyaManuel Pellegrini immediately after the draw, said that, most likely, his team will put the second part on the cup match with Chelsea, because he does not see, otherwise it to maintain the freshness of his team on the eve of the most important matches in the championship and the Champions League. Virtually no alternative, this option did the hardest staffing situation: currently in the hospital City is 7 players the basics. With great probability, we will see some young and interesting players, such as the virgin and Garcia, but it will inevitably impact on the team level of the game."Aristocrats" just will not work in this game, as in the last match against PSG. The team of Guus Hiddink will have to play the first number to break polurezervny part of "citizens", which is the strength of the London team. Chelsea - unconditional favorite, and very loyal attitude of the City for the tournament must play a decisive role.

Bayer Leverkusen - Borussia Dortmund
Germany - Bundesliga
02/21/2016 16:30 CET
Bayer Leverkusen knows the taste of defeat in 28 of their last 31 home games in the Bundesliga.
Boys Roger Schmidt did not allow a goal in their last three meetings "BayArena" including footfall attack Bayern Munich (0:0).
Top striker with 22 goals keeper Javier Hernandez is under serious question because of an injury.
Borussia Dortmund is second in the standings with a solid advance of 13 points ahead of third Bayer.
Tomas Tuhel company and not conceding a goal in their last three away games in the Bundesliga.
In the previous three meetings Borussia in the league in goals scored below 2.5.
Second-placed Bundesliga Borussia Dortmund travel to Bayer Leverkusen third and the match is of paramount importance for the hosts. They are lagging behind targets 13 points than your opponent, but the teams below them are very close and the fight for places entitling participation in the Champions League will be more fierce.
"Apirinite" are in a great series of six matches unbeaten and won four of them. Last week they were down 0:1 score against Darmstadt 98, but eventually managed to turn the game and win three points. A few team achieved a valuable victory with 1: 0 away to Sporting Lisbon in the first match of 1/16 finals in the Europa League.
As seen above, Bayer Leverkusen are on 13 points from goals Borussia Dortmund in the standings and is extremely unlikely that this difference can be made up to the end of the campaign. The goal before the team is more than clear - third place, which, however, have appetites and five team. "Aspirin" are unbeaten at home in four games, which includes clean sheets against Bayern Munich, Hannover 96 and Borussia Monchengladbach.
Borussia Dortmund are also in good form, recording four consecutive matches without defeat in the Bundesliga. They won against Borussia Monchengladbach, Ingolstadt and Hannover 96, and a draw in their visit of Hertha Berlin.
"Yellow and black" have won 48 points in 21 games and doing much better season than last year when the campaign managed to gain 46 points. The good news for visitors is that in camp no new injured players and will be able to rely on the best in this clash.
Statistics in direct duels between Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund shows absolute equality - at 26 wins for each team and 21 draws. In recent years the Dortmund team that dominated during visits of 'BayArena' last victory of "aspirin" against them dates back to 2007. This is the derby between teams in great form, which are located at the top of the standings. Both teams are renowned for attacking and easy on the eye football and I do not expect anything different on Sunday.
Derby rounds in the German Cup. Borussia are in second place with a total of 48 points, while Bayer are third with 35 points to his account. In 2016, Borussia recorded 4 wins and 1 draw, while their opponent has 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. The yellow and black won the match in the autumn convincing 3: 0. Guests are the team with more chances of success.
Perhaps today against the "Bayer" played by future team player "Ufa" Zinchenko. It sounds funny, and of course, more likely, all this duck from Dzyuba discharge in the "Barcelona" or Falcao in "Spartacus", but, nevertheless, there is no smoke without fire. "Borussia" confidently takes the second place and, most likely, it will not give anyone, but there are also huge and almost concrete possibility that the second and higher places "bumble" does not soar. "Bayer" is the third, but the gap from "Borussia" is 13 points.
"Pharmacists" are fighting for the preservation of this position and nothing else do not think. Of course, this fundamental opposition, but today it is more important than victory in "Bayer". Nevertheless. "Borussia" points will not be scattered. When Tuhelj "bumblebees" themselves began to control the ball and not play number two on the counterattack. It also likes to do, "Bayer". In general, we are waiting for cool German showdown.
Both teams claim to be the eldest son of the immortal king, in the face of Bayern Munich, and while it has to be very, very far away. What Levenkruzen that Dortmund played on the eve of their meeting in the Europa League, but if the "black and yellow" examined a enemy in their stadium, the "red-black" did not close the way to the Pyrenees. In this regard, a slight advantage in terms of physical fitness, which will have a guest side. Surprisingly both, opponents of the Germans were the Portuguese, and was twice recorded the result in favor of the clubs from Germany.
With the return to operation Ömer Toprak, "aspirin" is not an example to become safer and stronger. But before Bayer to get stronger as the injured Javier Hernandez, who in a few months, was the best player in the composition Levenkruzena. Today, Roger Schmidt's team maintains a crazy competition by immediately 6-8 teams fighting for the line 3 in the championship. It is clear that in this fight, "pharmacists" favorites, but this status has yet to be confirmed, it turns out not always.
Slightly wilted lately Hakan Çalhanoğlu, second place in the Mehmedi and Brandt, given the fact that during the meeting with Dortmund, will be necessary speed and endurance, the appearance of the Turks in the start, is a big question. Continue treatment and Lars Bender, who, like his brother, is in the camp of the opponents of today, still can not cope with his physical condition.
Leverkusen - Borussia Dortmund projected compositions
Leverkusen: Leno - hardly Toprak, Ta, Wendell - Mehmedi, Kampl, Kramer, Belarabi - Kiessling, BrandtDortmund: Bürki - Gintner, Sokratis, Hummels, Schmelzer - Weigl - Mkhitaryan, Gundogan, Kagawa, Royce - Aubameyang
Out of the gameBayer: Cruz, Charles Aránguiz, Bender, ChicharitoDortmund: Shaheen, S. Bender
Dortmund digested load winter off-season and with each match is running faster and faster. The second place was "Bumblebee" is no longer in danger, so Borussia were interesting: two cups and matches like today, against the top teams of the Bundesliga, where it is possible to test themselves and their capabilities.
In recent excellent form Marco Reus scored. German midfielder scores and gives in three matches in a row. No less impressive looks and efficiently and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, who spends his best season in the "bumblebees. Slightly lost heart Aubameyang but he begins to rebound, so the upcoming fight, we again have to see just rushing forward, "yellow-black" sports car.
Leverkusen - Borussia Dortmund Bayer forecast readers (0) - 2.38 Borussia (0) - 1.65
View resultsIn recent years, the meeting of these two teams get very stubborn and combative. A total of three full-time out of ten matches, the teams exchanged goals scored, and mostly played in the not too effective football. But now everything should be on the contrary. Bayer "blood from his nose," it is necessary to collect points, and over Borussia nothing prevails and it can afford to play in the fun.

Lille - Lyon
France - Ligue 1
02/21/2016 22:00 CET
Lille does not know the taste of defeat in recent 4 rounds of the French championship in which the record win and 3 draws.
Last weekend Frederic Antonetti and Co. slipped heroic goalless draw by PSG leader in the middle of Paris.
The hosts are just 4 points from the danger zone and will continue to fight for every point until the end of the season.
Lyon won their last 3 matches in Ligue 1 and with a difference of 3 goals in each of them.
The team of Bruno Zhenesio climbs steadily in the standings and is now just 2 points from the third Nice.
The key factor in the good performance of the OL lately is in the game Korentin Tolis, who scored 5 goals from the beginning of 2016, and against Caen excel and two assists.
The problem now is that Tolis is out due to injury.
Olympic also failed to win even once in their last eight visits to "Lille Metropole".
Alexandre Lakazet who has 10 goals this season, will almost certainly has the edge in attack guests.
Forecast: Draw
Atletico Madrid - Villarreal
Spain - Liga BBVA
02/21/2016 21:30 CET
Few goals from Atletico Madrid - Villarreal!
Atletico Madrid welcome Villarreal in a match of the 25th round of the Spanish Primera Division.
The last 4 games between these two teams in which they exchanged their 2 wins, finished with an identical score of 1:0.
Atletico Madrid took 6 wins in their last seven league games, including the last two rounds.
The team of Diego Simeone has only one point advance to the third Real Madrid in the table and is 6 behind leader Barcelona.
Simeone will be on Sunday without the suspended Jose Jimenez and injured Yannick Carrasco, Augusto Fernandez and Tiago.
Fernando Torres is expected to partner Antoine Griezmann in the attack at the expense of Luciano Viet.
Villarreal does not know the taste of loss in the last 11 rounds of the Spanish championship.
The team of Marcelino Garcia Toral did not commit goal in 5 of their last 6 games in the league.
Daniele Bonera is back after suspension, but injuries stopped from participating Jonathan dos Santos, Samuel and Eric Bailey.
In prior positions guests will probably see Leo Baptishtao and Cedric Bakambyu.
Atletico Madrid are not entitled to error if they want to stay with chances for the title. Their opponent is strong, but players under the leadership of Diego Simeone proved over the years that can play heavily under pressure. Fans of the Vicente Calderon will surely contribute to the victory of the home team.
Villarreal still played on Thursday in the first leg of 1/16 Europa League, and now they will be meeting with Madrid grandee. Meeting against the Neapolitans took away from the "yellow" a lot of energy, and only a magnificent free kick by Denis Suarez made it possible "submarine" to win this match. Beating the "mattress" will be even more difficult, especially given the accumulated fatigue. It's no secret that a maximum of 1.5 Villarreal ended, so the battle in two tournaments, can be a double edged sword. In the first part of the season wards Garcia Toral made a good start, so even if they lose today, nothing terrible will happen. "Indians" only to play his first match in the Champions League 1/8. In addition to this, in Madrid rivals in a very modest PSV, who put it mildly, by the forces of the collective Diego Simeone. Villarreal does not pass three rounds in a row, it's time to Atletico rectify this situation, and at the same time unhook one of the main persecutors.
Forecast: Home win or draw
Atletico to score over 1 goal

Real Madrid is dependent on Cristiano Ronaldo!
Real Madrid is too dependent on the shape of the top attacker Cristiano Ronaldo believes former club sports director Jorge Valdano.
This leads to an imbalance in the team and hence volatility in already achieved results.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored a victory over AS Roma 2:0 as a guest in the first match of the 1/8 finals of the Champions League on Wednesday night.
But he is often criticized for not marked in important meetings of his team.
"Real Madrid is too dependent on Cristiano and it does not help to maintain balance in the team. Madrid is in a form only when Ronaldo was in shape. This phenomenon is repeated in the last five years," said Valdano.
Cristiano Ronaldo failed to score in 15 of 31 matches for Real Madrid this season, with 9 of those 15 games "white" did not reach success.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid win all matches in which Ronaldo scored.
In fact, Ronaldo has scored 21 goals this season in La Liga, two-thirds of those hits are marked on the "Santiago Bernabeu".
Ronaldo scores a goal during the visit of Real Madrid in La Liga on 29 November.
The last time he scored two goals in the visit of Eibar on "Ipurua."
Statistics are uncompromising to Ronaldo and reveals that his contribution is not as big since the beginning of this season.
Ronaldo has scored in less than half the matches of the team for the season.
He has 30 goals in 29 games in all competitions, but hits it actually came in 14 matches, making the contribution of Karim Benzema much more significant as the Frenchman marks a very regular basis.
Even in his worst season in this respect - 2010-11, Ronaldo had scored in 51.8% of meetings up until now the percentage drops to 48.2%.
In each of the previous campaigns the leader of the team held more than 60% in this respect, as his record was from 2013-14, and scored goals in 72% of matches.
So far most goals from Cristiano come against weaker rivals.
He scored 8 goals in two meetings with Espanyol, scored 4 times against Malmo and 3 times against Shakhtar.
In five other matches even scored two goals.
Impact on the Madrid coaching staff hand Zinedine Zidane, every day there are more and more. French tutor, not only managed to establish an atmosphere in the team, but also to bring fresh ideas to it. In the championship of the "Blancos" still have a chance at the title, but you can no longer back away. Malaga, frankly, is not present, but the past transfer window, has considerably weakened "anchovies". Real Madrid are now on the move, and made sure of the guest victory over Roma, and most importantly, keeping their goal intact. The only thing that can prevent the capital's team to take three points - is the lack of Varan. "Creamy" should at least not lose, but if they want to get to the Catalans, then you can no longer make mistakes.
The hosts lost 0-1 away to Villarreal in the previous round and snapped a second consecutive success in the championship. With 30 points (8-6-10) Malaga is 11th place in the trailing 8 points 6th Celta Vigo, while their stadium the team conceded only three defeats in 11 matches so far, recording 5 wins more and 3 draws, winning 3 of their last 4 households without allowing a goal from Atletico Madrid, Celta and Getafe and lost in this period only by champion Barcelona 1-2 a month ago.Weekdays Real record 10th straight game without a loss and fourth consecutive victory in all competitions, beating Roma in Rome 2-0 in the second round of the Champions League. In La Liga Real Madrid with nine matches unbeaten, which achieved 7 wins, including the last 3 rounds and now lags behind 10 points from the Catalans and only 1 point from city rivals Atletico Madrid. Backlog of White Ballet is mainly due to the weak performances of the team away from Madrid, where Real has made only 5 wins in 11 visits, recording another 4 draws and conceded losses Sevilla and Villarreal by 1 goal difference, and with success in his last visit in Granada 2-1 two weeks ago footballers Zinedine Zidane snapped a three consecutive games without a complete success away from home - the loss of Villarreal and draws with Valencia and Betis.Before the start of this championship Royal Club had 5 consecutive win over Malaga for the championship, including their last two visits in 2014 by 1 goal difference. In September last year, Malaga managed to escape point Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid today Real Madrid will have to seek partial revenge for that draw, which is also the reason for the huge backlog of White longed from first place in the Primera.

Schalke 04 - Stuttgart
Germany - Bundesliga
02/21/2016 18:30 CET
Last week, Schalke 04 lost 1:2 enter the form team of Mainz, which was a blow to the ambitions of the team in their fight for third place. This weekend "royal blue" accept Stuttgart, which also are in incredibly good shape and recorded victory after victory in the championship.
The defeat of Mainz was the third for Schalke in the last six matches in the Bundesliga and it lost points would help greatly in the battle for one of the places entitling participation in the Champions League. Six teams have collected within five points difference, with Schalke 04 are located on the fifth and behind two points from Bayer Leverkusen and Hertha Berlin, but lead with six located on 11th place Stuttgart.
As a whole "royal blue" play a stable home, recording 6 wins from 10 games and are 3 success in their last 4 households, losing only Werder Bremen. Top striker team Class-Jan Huntelaar still can not find shape in his last scored goal dates back to December last year. Apart from long-term injured Atsuto Uchida, Mark Hyoger, Matthias nastasic and Benedikt Höwedes, all other players in the home are healthy and ready for this important match.
Stuttgart showed amazing game in recent months and are in a series of five consecutive wins in the Bundesliga. The team was on the bottom in the standings, but thanks to these results climb to mid-table.
"Schwab" is the only team in Germany, who won all their matches in the new year, and some players excelled with his performances. The luxury Rupp midfielder has four assists and one goal to his account, and Philip Kostic had three hits and one Goal pass. Top striker team Daniel Didavi (9 goals) is back in the composition after serving a penalty, but unfortunately for less than a week another blade team Daniel Ginchek get a new severe injury during training and will be out of land half a year.
A tie is rare in clashes between Schalke 04 and Stuttgart. Only 14 of the 91 matches are completed in a draw by Schalke has 35 wins and Stuttgart 42. In the last six matches no one draw, and "royal blue" have recorded 4 wins and 2 losses allowed. The hosts are involved in an increasingly bloody struggle for a place in the Champions League next year, while it seems that the battle of "Swabia" to remain in the elite of Germany finally ended.
We believe that guests in this form have a very good chance to win. They are a series of five consecutive wins for the championship, while their opponents suffered two defeats in four matches after the resumption of the league. Equivalent match, but factor directs us to the guests.
In England all admire the feats of "Leicester" in Germany itself has drawn attention to forgotten by all and has long been "Stuttgart". The team won five straight wins and secured residence in the Bundesliga, it is iron, but now "Swabians" will try to save the season and try to get into the top six. From the sixth "Swabians" places just six points separates. "Schalke" had a tough match with "Shakhtar" in the Europa League and now "cobalt" will be very hard. On the one hand, the need to win to stay in the top four of the championship, but it may simply not enough forces, both physical and emotional. But the guests a second wind and I am sure that today they just run across the opponent. Maybe even on the field will come Ukrainian Boris last name Drag and "drag" the game. And even if it does not come out, it would win, "Stuttgart".
Forecast: Home win or away win
Hannover 96 - Augsburg
Germany - Bundesliga

While top bet was because of poor form one team, this is because of poor form. Hanover are in a series of seven consecutive wins. In this their statistics no surprise that they are last in the standings. The crisis team is serious and Augsburg are required to take advantage of it.
Forecast: Away win
Granada - Valencia
Spain - Liga BBVA

"Bats" in the course begin to take themselves. Two wins in a row, should inspire confidence wards Gary Neville and give his boys a positive impetus, which was lacking in recent years. With all due respect to Granada, if the "Orange" will play in their strength, the islanders did not rival Valencia. In addition, the infirmary, "bat" is completely empty, and every player is ready to play. Granada, on the contrary, is now on the decline, losing three games in a row, even if they had to play against Real Madrid, Villarreal and Sociedad. At the islanders will have time to collect your points, and this unpleasant calendar interval, they just need to survive.
Forecast: Away win or draw
Valencia to score
