It is often said Premier League form can be forgotten when it comes to FA Cup semi-finals, but it is hard not to see Leicester as a percentage pick to beat Southampton. The Foxes are 11 places and 20 points further up the table, plus they came out on top when these teams met three months ago. More...

After trailing in Rangers' wake for most of the season, Celtic may have come good at just the right time for Sunday's Old Firm Scottish Cup clash. The Hoops were hugely impressive when hitting Livingston for six on Premiership duty last weekend and should now be full of confidence for this contest. More...

Wolves could still sneak into the top half of the Premier League table with a strong finish to the season and should see off Sheffield United. The Blades are bound for the Championship next term and have only scored one goal in a run of five consecutive league and cup defeats. More...

Newcastle and West Ham both enjoyed important wins last weekend and now meet at St James’ Park in a crucial game at both ends of the table.

Everton and Tottenham have both seen their Premier League top-four hopes fade over the past month or so, with each side struggling for wins.

Chelsea return to Sevilla for the second leg of their Champions League clash with Porto in a commanding position after winning the first encounter 2-0.

West Ham are now as short as 2/1 in bwin's Premier League top 4 odds after closing to within a point of third-placed Leicester by beating the Foxes 3-2. Chelsea are a point behind the Hammers in fifth after romping to a 4-1 triumph at Crystal Palace and can be backed at 3/4 in this market. More...

Ajax will look back on the first leg of their Europa League clash with Roma as a missed opportunity but there is still time to make amends. The Dutch outfit wasted a number of goalscoring opportunities but should still be hopeful of turning around a 2-1 deficit at Stadio Olimpico. More...

Manchester United enjoyed a relatively comfortable 2-0 victory over Granada in Spain and should again be too strong at Old Trafford. However, they are without a trio of key suspended players, while their opponents may feel able to perform with more freedom now that the pressure is off them. More...

El Clasico takes centre stage on Saturday night for what is turning out to be one of the most exciting La Liga title races in years.

Leeds took a deserved point off Manchester City at Elland Road earlier this season and are favoured by the timing of Saturday's return fixture.
