Yes, it looks like Joel and Fabinho (will be back). They trained completely normally yesterday and the day before. So that means they are likely to be in the squad," Klopp told a news conference.

Winning the Champions League is a more realistic prospect than retaining the Premier League title, with City trailing leaders Liverpool by 22 points in the table.

The hosts have struggled at home this term, failing to win against any side above 16th in the table. That’s rooted Fiorentina in the bottom half, with their early good form tailing off to leave them in the lower reaches of the table. Fiorentina head here without a win in six, while they’ve failed to win 17 of their last 19 league games at home.
Tottenham have seen their fortunes improve after Jose Mourinho’s arrival but they have failed to match the big boys and go to this game on the back of losses to Manchester United and Bayern Munich. Facing Wolves will however be a lighter task and they will only be worried by their away form. Wolves are unbeaten in the last five home matches in the Premier League and will feel this is a winnable game. Going by the two sides’ performances this season, we expect both to score and we feel a draw will be a good bet on this.

Banfield will host Huracan for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the hosts are favorites on the home ground. However, this will not be an easy task for the hosts. Banfield is very average team in this season. Banfield is a very unpredictable team. Also, the hosts are in poor shape in recent times. On the other hand, Huracan is also not very good team. Nevertheless, the visitors will probably try to try all three points or even one point. So, the visitors wants to get the victory because they constantly getting closer to the relegation zone. My pick - Huracan to win.
APOEL will host Omonia Nicosia for this fixture of the league. Both teams are one of the ambitious teams in this league. Omonia are currently on the 2nd place with 42 points. In last game Omonia is won 3-0 against weak Paralimni. Also, we have APOEL who's is also ambitious team in this campaign. They are currently on the 3rd place with 38 points. In last game APOEL lost 2-0 against Paphos. However, APOEL is really better team at home. In any case, the hosts will try to make a positive result. So, I expect, this will be a tense match. I think, the hosts will closer to victory.

Rangers made it out of a group that few would have given them much hope of getting out of when the draw was originally made. A club that couldn't kick its own backside in Europe in the season before Steven Gerrard arrived as manager - they allowed Progres Niedercorn to do it for them - had now navigated its way through to the knockouts. It's worth remembering that in Rangers' dozen European games before Progres - dating back to 2010 - they didn't win any of them.

That is evident more than ever now because we have the hunger that comes from lifting trophies and winning games.

Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti rejected the suggestion that his team had been affected by Liverpool making nine changes and fielding such a young side. The line-up of Liverpool didn't affect our idea of how to play; we knew that Liverpool put in fresh players and that the intensity could be a high intensity so I think the defeat arrived because we were not able to keep the intensity in the second half," he said.

It could be Mourinho feels that, once Dier is 100% again, he can trust him every week to do the job he is asking him to do. That is fine, but what Spurs need in that area is balance - and they do not get it from playing Sissoko alongside him. Yes, Sissoko is a different kind of player because he can burst forward while he has the ball at his feet, but if you press Dier then he is either going to pass the ball backwards or kick it out of play - he is not going to go past anyone.

Match I believe that the 90 minutes will end in a draw or home win. The reason is that the Mirandés a is very good team and has a well balanced defense and attack. The second division is doing very good in this season and in the Copa del Rey they are making the great revelation by eliminating teams like Sevilla. Villarreal has improved much more with the arrival of Paco Alcacer. They scored a lot of goals in their recent matches, but I think in the end they will draw or lose this match against Mirandes as Mirandes will be in high morale.
