Great match this weekend and although Manchester United is not having a great season and has struggled with some problems in recent years, the Manchester derby is always an exciting contest. Manchester City plays at home and is the clear favorite to get the win here.

For that reason, we will take Man City to cover the -1.5 Asian Handicap as the best line to bet on this match.

I believe that Newman will win in this match from Belarusian Premier league and that is pretty clear. This team is playing pretty good at home and probably they are in this moment in the middle of the table. Still, this team is also team who is want to attack qualification for Europa League, even that will be pretty hard to do it. On the other side is Belshina, only team in league who is start with three losses. They are also before start of season lost two matches in Cup, so, yea, Neman will surely beat them and I will try.

Woodward took on the CEO role and effectively became the middle man between the Florida-based Glazers and the team manager.

The hosts are current league leaders in Turkey, quite a surprise because there are really a lot of other clubs much better rated that one would have expected at the start of this season to be top of the league at this stage, but here we are and Sivasspor is winning game after game in the league and especially at home they are great so far with 6 wins and just one draw in 7 home games so far this season.
I was playing and it was such an end-to-end game with so much quality. We started well and went 2-0 up, but you knew they hadn't started yet. They had all the top boys playing, and before you know it, Teddy Sheringham scores two and they were back in it. In the end, David [Platt] scores a fantastic header, but when the game finished, that is when we believed we could do it.

Basel, as mentioned above, are unbeaten in Group C heading into match number five of six and have picked up one win on the road against Getafe and a draw in Turkey against Trabzonspor so will be confident in adding to their points total on Thursday.

Jadon SanchoGetty Images Paper Round’s view: With Chelsea on course for the Champions League, the club can maybe afford to take the long view and not rush into anything.

There is still work to do in the second leg, and losing Aymeric Laporte to another injury was a big blow - but City have put themselves in a wonderful position to make it through to the quarter-finals.
