Le Havre vs Paris FC
Promotion chasing Le Havre are looking to make it three home wins in a row in the league when 19th place Paris FC come for a visit tonight. The home side are undefeated in six games at Stade Océane and nothing really suggests that will change this evening. Le Havre boss Bob Bradley is eager for the team to improve though after overseeing a lackluster performance away to Ajaccio on the weekend. Bradley felt the team lacked energy and determination and will make sure to keep the players on their toes ahead of tonight. It’s very important for the team to claim all three points this round as they face tough competition in the coming weeks against Clermont, Lens, Red Star and Dijon, all more or less top teams in the league.
Team news: Jerome Mombris is back after a spell in Le Havre II and is likely to take a spot among the substitutes.
Paris FC are in deep trouble after going winless in 17 straight league games in a row. They have only won once this season and away from home they are the only winless team in the league along with Ajaccio. Despite claiming a point away to Valenciennes in the last round they are the heavy underdogs here, especially with players missing tonight.
Team news: Things don’t come any easier this week as the visitors have several players out. Ayari, Bongongui, Gamiette, Glombard, Socrier and Bouchard are out injured and new signing Ismaël Keïta won’t be cleared to play in time.

Newly promoted RB Leipzig are heading to bottom of the table MSV Duisburg tonight in the sixth round of the Frauen Bundesliga. Duisburg are still winless and faced heavy defeat in their last league outing to Eintracht Frankfurt (1-5). The Zebras have already conceded 21 goals this season while only scoring four and will struggle to stay in the division.
They still have to do without Sarah Freutel, Alexandra Emmerling, Jelena Prvulovic and Brooke Denesik, and received another blow as Danish centre back Emilie Henriksen also will miss the game due to illness.
RB Leipzig hope to pick up their second win of the season and were happy to see all their international players come back healthy and raring to go after the break. Elvira Herzog, Michela Croatto, Julia Magerl and Korina Janez all trained with the team this week and look sharp.
We’re rather confident of an away win here.

To say that Ajax’s start to the season has been poor is an understatement. In fact, Ajax are incredibly enough bottom of the Eredivise table after their opening eight games, the worst start ever for the club. It came as little surprise then when head coach Maurice Steijn was relieved of his duties and replaced with Hedwiges Maduro on an interim basis. He did not fare much better in his two games in charge, a 0-2 loss to Brighton followed up by a 2-5 loss at PSV. This led to the club appointing John van’t Schip as their new manger on a two year deal.
van’t Schip has only had a few days to prepare for tonight’s game against struggling Volendam, but just having a permanent manager, let alone a club legend, in place must be seen as a boost. Also, the visitors are the worst away team in league, having lost all their four league outings this season, scoring only four goals in the process while conceding a whopping 12.
This is the perfect rebound spot for Ajax and despite their struggles so far, we believe they will go all out here and win this comfortably.

Chelsea get a welcome break from league football when they welcome Championship side Blackburn Rovers to Stamford Bridge tonight. A place in the Carabao Cup quarter finals is at stake and the Blues aim to go all the way.
Rovers are expected to make some changes to the team that lost 0-1 at home to Swansea at the weekend and Jake Garrett, Adam Wharton, Dilan Markanday and Andrew Moran all could get a start here. Captain Lewis Travis will start but Rovers’ manager Jon Dahl Tomasson will have to do without top scorer Sam Szmodics who is nursing an injury picked up at the weekend.
Chelsea could also give some of the non regular starters a chance to shine, with the likes of Armando Broja and Ian Maatsen. We could also see Enzo Fernandez and Mykhailo Mudryk, who missed the league defeat to Brentford at the weekend, start.
Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino said: “We will try to play with our best team. Some players will need to rest because after Saturday’s game we can’t take risks. But, in general, we will try to play our best team.”
We will take his word for it and expect Chelsea to win this rather comfortably.
