It is not the Seagulls' first season in the top flight, but it is Potter's - so I can understand why he wants to concentrate on the Premier League.

In an entertaining contest, both sides threw caution to the wind in search of a late equaliser but the game ended all square. This was a chance for United to close the gap on the top four after Chelsea lost to Bournemouth on Saturday and after a week in which they defeated Manchester City and Tottenham, this will feel like a huge missed opportunity for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men.

We feel that within the camp there is a real spirit of togetherness building and that comes from winning - that is the most important thing about top-level sport. We should've really been 3-0 up at half time in this game and then as the game went on our control and patience was brilliant - I'm proud of their performances.
Brest host Smolevichi in the 1st round of the football league in Belarus. Brest is the defending champion, while Smolevichi is a team from the 2nd league that got promoted. I doubt we going to see plenty of goals in this match, because Smolevichi is very weak team and it will be hard for them to score, also on the other side Brest is a team that not allows many goals per game. Smolevichi will probably defend all match, so I decided to go with the tip total goals under 3.5. I think it is very reasonable margin. Good luck.
There's been a lot to like about the way Gillingham have gone about their business in recent weeks, so much so that they look a good bet to register a fifth home win in six matches. Over the last month or so, Steve Evans' men have given off an air of strength and solidity; they've conceded very few goals, especially at home, while they've also shown a killer-edge at their own place. Such facts do not bode well for a slipping Oxford side that has struggled offensively in the last few weeks. Based on recent performances, at home, Gillingham look to have the edge in terms of both solidity and attacking potency and are thus backed to get the job done.
Goztepe have lost only 3 games at home all season and including the cup games they have scored at least once in 12 of the last 13 matches at home. Since October last year they only lost at home to Basaksehir, the current number 2 of the league.
The table is so tight but you need to put a run together, be tough to beat and keep a clean sheet. I'm really pleased with the clean sheet as we haven't had too many of those this season. Our form has been good; we knew it would be hard, but I think we've been competitive. It takes time to gel defensively but we achieved that against Newcastle. On goalscorer Conor Hourihane, Smith added: "I explained to Conor why I left him out against Manchester City [on 26 October].

Four of the last five Zhodino league games have seen both teams score. The last five Dinamo Brest league games have seen both teams get on the scoresheet. Dinamo Brest have scored ten goals in their last two league games, but still can't keep clean sheets. Zhodino begin the weekend in third place, four points off the top of the Belarus Premier League.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has no new injury concerns for the game. Marcus Rashford and Paul Pogba remain the club's long-term absentees, with the pair out with back and ankle issues respectively. We had a couple of knocks in training but hopefully they'll be OK," Solskjaer said. But it's a strong, fit 25-man outfield squad and it was a good session as well. We're looking stronger. As well as the prestige of winning a trophy, success in the Europa League also offers United a pathway to next season's Champions League.
Salisbury will against Truro City in match England Southern Premier. My prediction this match could be the end score is over 2.5 goals due to Salisbury always make score on last 3 match. Moreover Salisbury have average score on last 3 match is 3 goals. Surely this match can be the end score is over 2.5 goals. Event though Truro City on last 3 match only can make score in 2 match, I think this match still will much score because Truro City can make 5 goals on last 3 match. Beside that Salisbury on last 10 match in league only 1 match can't make score and likewise Truro City only 2 match they can't make score. Surely this match will tight from both team to make much score.

Vitebsk will against Dinamo Minsk in match Belarus Vysshaya Liga. My prediction this match could be the end score is over 2 goals due to Dinamo Minsk always make to score on last 3 match in league. Dinamo Minsk can make total score is 3 goals. Event though Vitebsk on last 3 match only can make total score is 2 goals, I think this match could be the end score is over 2 goals. Moreover Vitebsk can make total score is 4 goals on last 4 home match. Meanwhile, Dinamo Minsk can make total score is 6 goals on last 4 away match. Therefore, my prediction this match could be the total score is 2 or more goals.
For all of these top-flight sides playing lower-division teams, it is a case of picking a team that you think is capable of beating the opposition. That's different to a lot of Premier League games, because half the time you are only thinking about stopping the opposition. If you are going out to win, then you pick your strongest side. For various reasons, that is not going to happen this weekend, so the challenge is to get the balance right between resting players and winning the tie.

The rangy 18-year-old, given the freedom of the flank as Stranraer packed the middle of the pitch, supplied a series of excellent deliveries.

I am under no illusions that Real Madrid are going to knock my door down, get [Thibaut] Courtois out and bring me in. But there is plenty more to come from me. I just need someone to believe in me and I will repay that faith. In May, Hart featured in the BBC documentary 'Football, Prince William and Our Mental Health'.

Whittingham did not complain and simply left when his contract expired in the summer of 2017, with no fanfare or ceremony.

I wanted to say goodbye to everybody surrounding the club, the fans," Whittingham said. That's something I would have loved to do. It was not to be, but Whittingham's legacy at Cardiff had already been assured.
Why Quique Setien was appointedTactical compromisesSetien, an ardent admirer of Barca legend Johan Cruyff, arrived in January with a promise to reinstate the Dutch master's playing style, which had been slowly eroded under predecessor Ernesto Valverde. For his first game, at home to Granada, Setien attempted to fulfil that pledge immediately by lining up with a Cruyffian back three, plus wing-backs, and with Lionel Messi as a false nine rather than in the right-sided role he has filled in recent years.
Things like this happen in football," Liverpool boss Klopp said. The FA dealt with it; I can't judge that. The players are absolutely OK. Sterling and Gomez had been involved in an on-field argument during Liverpool's 3-1 Premier League victory over City at Anfield on 10 November, just before the international break. City, fourth in the Premier League, are eight points behind leaders Liverpool, who can extend that advantage with a win at Crystal Palace on Saturday (15:00 GMT).
The Championship is the third English competition to resume in four days, following the restart of the Premier League on Wednesday and the League Two play-off semi-finals 24 hours later. Like the Premier League, the intention is for the Championship to be played to its full conclusion. League Two and League One, the other two competitions that make up the English Football League, have instead come back to decide only the final promotion spots via the play-offs after both campaigns were curtailed and decided on an average points-per-game system.
At this stage it is impossible to know whether - and to what extent - the Champions League game contributed to the surge of deaths on Merseyside that followed. Just as we do not know how many of the quarter of a million racing fans who visited the Cheltenham Festival that same week caught the virus from being there. But ever since the match, there has been mounting concern that thousands of fans from one of the early European epicentres of the pandemic were allowed to travel to Anfield, even after Spain had closed schools and banned mass gatherings.
It is going to be difficult to pick something up quickly, because it is going to be some time before the oil industry is back to its full capacity again.
