Preview
Chelsea host Burnley on Monday night at Stamford Bridge as they seek a victory and return to the Premier League top four.
We are getting to the stage of the Premier League season where for some teams, there is usually little left to play for in terms of success.
After beating Chelsea at Anfield last Sunday, Liverpool will feel that they have cleared their last major hurdle before going onto win this season’s Premier League title.
Just when you thought you had time to relax, we now have to go through it all over again and after Wednesday’s incredible Champions League meeting at the Etihad, Manchester City and Tottenham square off once more.
The Premier League has reached the business end of the season and teams know what they can achieve. On Saturday afternoon, Bournemouth welcome Fulham to the Vitality Stadium knowing they can still finish in the top half of the league this season.
On Friday afternoon, Millwall host Brentford at the Den in a game that could prove vital to the home sides chances of survival in the Championship this season.
On Friday afternoon, Middlesbrough host Stoke at the Riverside Stadium, in a game that could be vital in the home sides hopes of securing a play-off spot in the Championship.
We have known the fate of Huddersfield Town for some time as they have already been relegated to the Championship for next season. However, there is still a chance they could finish above Fulham in the table and at least move off the bottom before the end of the campaign.
On Friday evening, Nacional Madeira host Sporting CP, in a potentially vital game for the home side in the Portuguese Primeira Liga.
West Brom and Hull City will do battle at The Hawthorns on Good Friday with one team having already secured their place in the play-offs taking on another club that still have ambitions of making a top six finish.
On Friday night, Lyon host Angers at the Groupama Stadium, as the home side look to consolidate their position in the Champions League spots.
On Friday evening, Dijon host Rennes at the Stade Gaston-Gerard, as the home side look to move clear of the relegation spots in the French top-flight.
Should Sheffield United lose at home to Nottingham Forest and Norwich City beat Sheffield Wednesday in Good Friday’s evening kick-off, then Norwich will confirm promotion to the Premier League in what would be an extremely good Friday for The Canaries.
At the start of the week Manchester United had two possible routes in which to earn entry into next season’s Champions League. However, after defeat to Barcelona on Tuesday night, one of those has now been blocked off.
It’s East verses West in the midlands on Good Friday as Birmingham City take on Derby County at St Andrews with both teams needing all three points in their respective battles near the bottom and top of the Championship league table.
Benfica head to Germany to play Eintracht Frankfurt leading 4-2 on aggregate in their Europa League quarterfinal tie.
With so many teams from the same country participating in European competition we are always likely to see two clubs from the same league go head-to-head in the knockout stages. It has happened in the Europa League with Valencia and Villarreal coming up against each other at the quarter-final stage.
The 2018/19 UEFA Europa League quarter-final second legs take place on Thursday night and we have an intriguing encounter to look forward to between Napoli and Arsenal at the Stadio San Paolo.
Chelsea have conceded just one goal in the Europa League knockout stages and Slavia Praha have it all to do at Stamford Bridge on Thursday night.
Preston North End’s hopes of a place in the play-off pack have taken a huge dent as they’ve suffered four defeats on the trot in recent weeks in the Championship having lost to Reading, Sheffield United, Leeds United and West Brom.
