Lorient is on top of the table and they are in great shape with 5 wins on last 5 matches, so I surely expect from them to continue with wins tomorrow cause Nancy is not that good team on the road and despite they have just 2 defeats this season on the road with 7 draws, I think they will lose tomorrow for sure and also I think they will concede 2 goals which should be enough for Lorient to win with 2 difference cause Nancy is struggling to score a goal versus anyone and 2-0 or 3-0 could be the correct score
With seven wins from 10 competitive fixtures, Leicester's strength at home this season is well established, and the Foxes have already shown this term that they can dismiss lower-league opponents with ease.

But does it make for a better spectacle? And more importantly, does any yellow card offence?" RETRO CORNER On this day in 2010, Manchester United are knocked out of the Champions League by Bayern Munich, after Rafael was sent off and Arjen Robben scored a quite brilliant volley to clinch the tie.

Fortuna Sittard have scored in both halves of their home games 44% of the time and we are expecting goals in both halves of Saturday’s clash. Vitesse have scored three or more goals in three of their last five matches and each of those games have ended in victory for Saturday’s gusts, while Fortuna Sittard have conceded seven goals in their last three league games, which is another reason why we have backed Vitesse to pinch a 3-2 win this weekend.
We just looked at it and looked at the personnel we had. We can always go back to that or we can stay with the three [at the back]. So we're flexible with whatever formation we want to play.
