Athens is a city known for monuments, and if AEK Athens can somehow beat Real Madrid tomorrow, that would be monumental. It is highly unlikely, considering the vasty disparity is talent, quality and depth between Los Blancos and the Yellow-Blacks, but hey, this is why they play the matches. Games are won or lost on the pitch, not on paper. So let's take a look at what starting … [Read more...] about Real Madrid Predicted XI at AEK Athens: Mourinho Likely to Select Vinicius Junior

Real Madrid Team News at AEK Athens: Vinicius Junior, Federico Valverde
Jose Mourinho seems to have Real Madrid back on the upswing. The big El Clasico win may have turned their season around. They're only three points from the top of the table in La Liga, and they've been perfect, thus far this season, in UEFA Champions League. Federico Valverde has returned to training now, having healed up his hamstring and that obviously provides a great … [Read more...] about Real Madrid Team News at AEK Athens: Vinicius Junior, Federico Valverde
Liverpool Predicted XI at Fenerbahce: Koumas, Szoboszlai, Ngumoha Could All Start
There is no real "Team News" for Liverpool FC right now, so we're going to skip that article for this midweek, and just go straight into the predicted XI.

Predicted Arsenal XI at Slavia Praha: Likely Starts for Eze, Dowman, Gyokeres
Eberechi Eze was fit enough to make the bench yesterday, in Arsenal's massive win at Liverpool, and this conveys that the unspecified injury he's currently dealing with is not too serious.

Manchester United Predicted XI vs Roma: Michael Carrick May Have Joshua Zirkzee Lead the Line
Manchester United have only two, true out-and-out strikers on their roster. One of them, Benjamin Sesko, has been out injured for awhile, and we just learned a couple days ago that he's going to be sidelined even longer. The other, Joshua Zirkzee, isn't really Premier League level, let alone big six club in the Premier League level, but we think he'll get the start anyway, on … [Read more...] about Manchester United Predicted XI vs Roma: Michael Carrick May Have Joshua Zirkzee Lead the Line
Manchester United Team News vs AS Roma: Ben Sesko, Lisandro Martinez, Marcus Rashford
There is no bedrock with Manchester United this season. Every time you think they've hit the floor; it just drops out again, and they decline further. There was a lot to feel shameful of in yesterday's 2-0 loss at Chelsea, but the poster child of Saturday's disgrace is obviously Lisandro Martinez. He got ejected after two yellow cards, and now faces a ban in domestic play. As … [Read more...] about Manchester United Team News vs AS Roma: Ben Sesko, Lisandro Martinez, Marcus Rashford
Aston Villa at Barcelona Predicted XIs: Who Hansi Flick, Unai Emery Could Select
Tuesday night sees FC Barcelona welcoming Aston Villa to the Camp Nou, for a Champions League matchup that looks pretty riveting; at least on paper. Unai Emery's men sit second in the UCL table, and they'll be looking to get back in the win column after yesterday's result, which was uninspiring, to say the least. The Villans played lower table Fulham to a score draw, an end … [Read more...] about Aston Villa at Barcelona Predicted XIs: Who Hansi Flick, Unai Emery Could Select

Everton Team News at Newcastle United: Jack Grealish, Jarrad Branthwaite
Jack Grealish is in trouble again, off-the-pitch. This seems to be a pattern for the Manchester City winger, who is currently on loan to Everton, for the second consecutive season. Grealish missed out on last night's 3-1 win over Newcastle United, in the EFL Cup, due to what was branded: "a breach of club discipline." Everton have not disclosed the specuiifc reason, but … [Read more...] about Everton Team News at Newcastle United: Jack Grealish, Jarrad Branthwaite
