Nice have won this competition three times in the club's history but the most recent triumph was in 1997 so there is definitely a fever in the city to get back on top of this tournament. They have a relatively easy opponent for their first match and have some good form to take into this game.

Jalapa is without a win in their last 5 games played in the league but stilled managed to finish on 5th place in the end but that means for this play-off game single leg they are the guests and they face a Ferretti side which has been doing excellent in defense lately with 4 wins in a row without a single goal conceded by them at home, and as an example last round they played away from home at league leaders from Managua FC and lost the game just 1-0, while two rounds ago Jalapa also played away at Managua FC and lost the game with no less than 6-1 in the end.

However, the striker's absence won't put much of a dent in the Gers' attack, as he has only scored four of the club's last thirteen goals away from home. Moreover, Steven Gerrard's side is the highest-scoring on the road, netting an impressive 21 goals in nine games- an average of 2.33.

Real are very solid defensively so if he wants to break them down then his best option would be to have Rodri holding and David Silva and Kevin de Bruyne on either side of him. But he might consider that to be too attack-minded at the Bernabeu so there is a real possibility that Ilkay Gundogan will come in for Silva. Up front, I would like to see Riyad Mahrez play - ideally with Sergio Aguero and Raheem Sterling.
My immune system was still low. Everyone thinks you are normal but I couldn't do anything. Mentally I did not feel normal and physically I was still feeling the side effects.

The Argentine striker, who has 29 caps for his nation, said that his home country dislikes Ronaldo because of, among other things, his “walk”.

Rinus Israel's equaliser quickly brought them back down to earth. Davie Hay in action against Feyenoord in the 1970 European Cup finalTo go from the underdogs to the favourites must have come as a bit of a culture shock for Stein's men.

They were used to being domestic powerhouses, but their European form had been lacking.
Pearson is only contracted to the end of the season but Watford's fans who chanted his name on the south coast, appear in no doubt they have finally found the right man.

It's a bit strange for all of us, but I've got my head around it," Winks told the club's website. We've all been given a schedule, but it's flexible, we can do it in our own time.

Greuther Furth was lucky to draw in Darmstadt, with the host missed the penalty at 1:0 lead. They are going home to face Sandhausen, which is coming after quite well performance and win in the recent round.
I'd be lying if I said I felt the equaliser coming. My goal came from nowhere. Arsenal were much the better side in the second half and they had started their 'oles', knocking it around, looking confident. I was trying to get some pride out of the team and myself. When Gael Clichy slips and I nick the ball off him I was looking for bodies to pass to but there was nobody there so I just thought I'd take on the shot and it goes in.
