Eintracht Frankfurt also advanced after Filip Kostic scored twice to help them beat last year's finalists RB Leipzig 3-1 and earn their spot in the competition's quarter-finals.
Aston villa is in terrible shape and if they continue to play like this I don't think they could avoid relegation and on the other side Newcastle seems to be in a good shape and also at home they are much better than they are on the road and especially their home defense is good so I expect another clean sheet from Newcastle defense and their offense should be able to get the win if that be the case cause Aston vila defense is not that good and I do not believe they could stop Newcastle from scoring at least once
Heerenveen have only failed to score in 14% of their home games this season and Vitesse have only failed to score in 29% of their away games this season, so we’re not expecting a goalless draw between the pair and doubt either side will fail to hit the target at least once on Friday night.

Akhmat could remain unbeaten here. There are two reasons for my pick. First reason is connect with the actual form. Somebody may argue because there was a winter break in Russia and just one round is played after, but I think the overall results are still very important for the players confidence. So, Akhmat have just one defeat on the last seven matches in the Premier League. I believe the atmosphere in the squad is positive, while the players confidence is high. On contrary, Lokomotiv Moscow have two defeats on the last three matches, with just one draw.
City's 2-1 win was the lowest recorded by a side managed by Guardiola in any of his 381 top-flight matches in charge at his three clubs. The Spaniard tried to give the impression that he wouldn't be losing any sleep about that piece of data, although it is hard to believe it won't pique his curiosity at the very least.
He also won the Golden Boot for being the tournament’s top scorer. His club career included prolific spells at PSV Eindhoven, Barcelona, Inter Milan and Real Madrid. His moves from PSV to Barcelona and then from Barcelona to Inter were for fees which at the time were world-record transfers. Chris Stark: “We shouldn’t call him Fat Ronaldo, this is what I’m learning. He has put on a bit of timber. However, I’ve made that mistake and one time I put out a tweet calling him Fat Ronaldo and Daniel Sturridge of all people stepped up out of nowhere and laid into me about it.
He left after less than a year, joining Bundesliga side Vfl Wolfsburg for a short stint as assistant to Andries Jonker. In June 2018 he returned once more to the club in his heart, this time as U23 manager, and he was appointed assistant manager to Emery a year later. In replacing his mentor, Ljungberg has once again shown his ability to be in the right place at the right time at Arsenal.

Their three top scorers Jamie Mata, Jorge Molina and Angel Rodriguez have a combined age of 100, while 37-year-old Molina is older than the club itself.

This is a match from England Development league and of course, duel where I see at least three goals, maybe even more than that - it is clear. So, Wigan U23 is team who is firstly team who is in last official duel played against this rival 2-2 in December last year, and for me is logical to expect something similar and this time. Home team is and in this moment very efficient and they are in last three matches in league played 2-3, 3-2 and 3-0. Sheffield Utd U23 is same team, so over is surely logical option for this match.

Struggling Arsenal and bottom club Watford, in comparison, have each started 22. So, Sheffield United's dressing room is a tight-knit group, with more than half the side starting all 13 games this season. That figure includes the centre-backs Jack O'Connell and Chris Basham as well as wing-backs George Baldock and Enda Stevens.

If City can claim the Champions League next month, it's a no-brainer. Matt Upson: Sadio Mane (2)For his consistency, his energy and his relentlessness, Mane gets my vote. He is constantly applying pressure to his opponent and he has produced pieces of real quality too. Out of possession, he is brilliant and he embodies Liverpool's whole ethos with his pressing, and then he is so deadly in front of goal too.

Already there is talk of Liverpool going through the league entire season unbeaten -- matching the 'The Invincibles' of Arsenal in 2003/04 and Preston North End in 1888/89.
