With the Champions League taking center stage on Wednesday night, we are set for what is another stacked schedule from across Europe. So, for those of you looking to place a midweek accumulator, we have found a few helpful tips that are worth keeping an eye out for.

Wednesday April 19th
BST 19:45 Watford vs Cardiff City

Managing to make what was a much-welcomed return to winning ways over the weekend, Watford have the feel of a squad seeking some recent stability. Eventually picking up a deserved 2-0 win at home against Bristol City, Chris Wilder’s side should be smelling the chance to clinch back-to-back Championship victories for the first time since opening 2023. Although the Hornets might be facing a real uphill battle in their bid to claim a play-off finish th…

There has not been a lot of movement among Inter s defensive stocks in recent years, with Milan Skriniar, Stefan De Vrij and Alessandro Bastoni providing continuity in front of Samir Handanovic.

Skriniar appears set to leave this off-season, however, after five years at the club.

The Nerazzurri are reportedly well-prepared in what looks set to be an active transfer window for them.

TOP STORY – INTER PLAN FOR SKRINIAR EXIT AS PSG MOVE NEARS

Inter have identified who they would want to replace Skriniar in the event he departs for PSG, according to Tuttosport and Corriere dello Sport.

Gleison Bremer and Nikola Milenkovic are viewed as possible replacements for the 27-year-old Slovakia international, as his move to Ligue 1 appear…

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp insists his reign is far from being over and he appreciates Steven Gerrard s comments after taking over at Aston Villa this week.

Former Anfield star Gerrard, often tipped as a future Liverpool manager, has left Scottish champions Rangers to join Villa in his first Premier League job.

But Gerrard rejected a suggestion he had taken the role as a stepping stone to managing Liverpool in the future.

He then claimed he would be happy if Klopp signed a lifetime contract, given how well he has done with the Reds.

Klopp is under contract at Anfield until 2024 and while he has not thought about a new deal, he was grateful to Gerrard and reiterated there is plenty of time left for him in his current job.

I thought Stevie sai…

Looking to extend on their rampant start to proceedings, Tottenham will welcome Sheffield United to north London on Saturday afternoon.

Tottenham

Starting with the hosts, while Tottenham might have come under a huge amount of scrutiny last season as they missed out on any kind of European finish, Spurs have come roaring back this time around. Really enjoying life under new boss Ange Postecoglou, the Lilywhites have gained a string of early plaudits. Last seen heading into September’s international break with an action-packed 5-2 win away at Premier League returners Burnley, the former Celtic boss finds the mood in his camp at a red-hot high. With their sights now firmly set on securing a Champions League return this season, Tottenham…

Inter star Romelu Lukaku said he owes Antonio Conte a lot after penning a heartfelt farewell message to the former Nerazzurri head coach.

Conte guided Inter to their first Serie A title since 2010 but the Italian boss remarkably departed less than a month on from the club s Scudetto triumph by mutual consent on Wednesday.

The 51-year-old, who had another year remaining on his contract after arriving from Chelsea in 2019, had been tipped to leave amid Inter s financial situation and a supposed dispute over salary cuts and player sales.

Lured to San Siro by Conte in 2019, Lukaku paid tribute to the outgoing boss.

Lukaku wrote via Instagram: 2014 we spoke for the first time and we have had a bond ever since. We had many moments to work together but only god …

Declan Rice deserves to be in contention for the Premier League s Player of the Season award and has proven to be the best signing of the campaign, says former Arsenal midfielder Ray Parlour.

Rice joined Arsenal from West Ham in a £105million deal last July and has had a transformative impact, helping Mikel Arteta s side push Manchester City all the way in the title race.

On Thursday, Rice – alongside Arsenal team-mate Martin Odegaard – was named as one of eight nominees for the Premier League s Player of the Season prize, with the likes of Phil Foden, Erling Haaland and Virgil van Dijk also on the shortlist.

As well as helping Arsenal maintain the Premier League s best defensive record in 2023-24, Rice has carried the ball further than any other player in t…

Leicester owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, who was killed in a 2018 helicopter crash, would “never have risked his life in this machine” if he knew safety processes had not been taking place, according to his son.

Mr Vichai and four others died when the Leonardo AW169 plummeted to the ground outside the club’s King Power Stadium on October 27, 2018, shortly after taking off from the pitch.

A report by the Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) stated that the crash was caused by the pilot’s pedals becoming disconnected from the tail rotor as a component – a bearing – seized amid a build-up of pressure.

Investigators listed a series of contributory factors, such as Italian company Leonardo failing to share test flight results with the bearing manufac…

The Premier League returns once again this weekend as we continue through the early stages of the campaign. The opening weekend provided us with plenty of noteworthy moments but with 37 matchday still left to be played, anything can happen between now and May and we ve only just gotten started. Today, we re going to preview what should be an intriguing clash between Nottingham Forest and West Ham.

Nottingham Forest

It s easy enough to write off a team as relegation favourites before the season even gets underway, and in reality, we should be focusing on the fact that a club as historic as Nottingham Forest are finally back in the big time after two decades away. They have work to do in the summer trans…

Callum Robinson is convinced the Republic of Ireland are heading in the right direction despite their disappointing Euro 2024 qualifying campaign.

Ireland will not be in Germany for next summer’s finals – barring an unlikely series of results elsewhere which could hand them a second chance via the play-offs – after taking just six points from their first seven Group B fixtures, with just a tough trip to the Netherlands next month to come.

That has left manager Stephen Kenny fighting for his job, but Cardiff striker Robinson believes the foundations the 51-year-old has put in place since succeeding Mick McCarthy in April 2021 could yet pay dividends.

Speaking after Monday night’s 4-0 victory over Gibraltar in Faro, the 28-year-old said: “There’s so muc…

In what was another Europa League classic on Thursday night, Manchester United booked their last-16 ticket after securing a 2-1 victory against Barcelona in their second-leg showdown

Despite entering the half-time break chasing a 1-0 deficit as Robert Lewandowski s penalty snuck past David de Gea, Erik ten Hag s side produced what has become a trademark turnaround on home soil.

Eventually clinching a stellar 4-3 aggregate victory after settling for a 2-2 draw at the Nou Camp last week, it was United s Brazilian duo who will still most of the headlines.

With Fred and second-half substitute Antony completing ten Hag s Europa League comeback, the Premier League giants also pilled more pressure onto a Barcelona side who are now enduring another public European strug…
