If he does so, Messi will edge clear of Ronaldo on six Ballon d'Or wins - an unprecedented feat and a possible fatal blow in their battle for supremacy.

Lawro's prediction: 1-1 Brighton v ArsenalBrighton have drawn five of their past seven games, including the impressive point they picked up at Wolves last time out, and are inching their way to safety one week at a time. The Seagulls have been playing well and seem to have turned into a team that does not give much away - they don't concede many goals. They still have not won since 28 December, but I have a feeling their wait will end here - which would be massive for them.
Vissel Kobe have waited 54 years for this moment. In Spanish World Cup winner David Villa's final game before retiring, the Japanese side won their first trophy by lifting the Emperors Cup. Inspired by World Cup winners Andres Iniesta and Lukas Podolski, Kobe beat Kashima Antlers 2-0 in the final with former Barcelona striker Villa, 37, coming on as a substitute in the last minute. It was also the first match to be hosted at Tokyo's National Stadium, which has been built for this year's Olympics.
And you can kind of see what the idea was, can’t you? COMING UP Making a steaming mess of the transfer window. Fans boiling on the edge of mutiny. Best player knackered. And, of course, 3-1 and a humiliation down from the first leg. What a time for Manchester United to be heading to Manchester City. Also you know that game in hand that Liverpool have, that would be very important in any other title race? That’s happening tonight as well.
Brighton vs Chelsea predictions for Wednesday’s Premier League clash at the Amex Stadium. Chelsea are aiming to tighten their grip on 4th spot at Brighton’s expense this weekend. Read on for all our free Premier League predictions and betting tips.
Aberdeen will be eager to keep their unbeaten streak going, and they have a good chance of doing so against the team with the worst away record in the division. We're going to back the Dons to win to nil here due to the fact St Mirren has only netted an average of 0.57 goals and have been beaten to nil in 4 of their 7 away trips so far and in 3 of their last 4, conceding exactly 2 goals in 4 of those away games. Moreover, we're also going for a 2-0 win for Aberdeen here, as they've scored an average of 1.83 times 2 of their 3 wins at home have seen them keep a clean sheet.
Having moved above Artur Boruc as manager Eddie Howe's first choice, no Bournemouth player has made more appearances than Ramsdale (28), who has missed just one game. Only Newcastle United's Martin Dubravka (117) and Arsenal's Bernd Leno (104) have made more saves than Ramsdale (102) in the top flight this season. Did you know? No goalkeeper has made more saves than Ramsdale in the Premier League in 2020 (36).
I can see them going to Bramall Lane, being competitive, and leaving with the points. That is going to delight the legions of Blades fans who have pointed out to me where Sheffield United are in my league table (bottom of page) compared to reality. When I tip them to lose it usually means they will win - but I am going to get one right one day. Lawro's prediction: 0-1Richard's prediction: It is Christmas after all so I am not going to use this as an opportunity to have a little dig at the Blades, although a lot of my Wednesday-supporting mates will probably say 'why didn't you just slate them?'"I am going to get loads of stick from my Wednesday mates here but, for the city's sake, I hope they win this one.
Sonnenhof Grossaspach will host Preussen Munster for this fixture of the league. Both teams are one of the main outsiders in this campaign. Both teams are currently bottom of the table. In any case, both sides have the motivation to get the victory. I expect, this will be tense match. Also, I think, the hosts have better chance to win on the home field. They will try to capitalize advantage on their pitch. Preussen Munster is not very good team away from home. They have two consecutive losses. So, the hosts have a slight advantage. My pick - Sonnenhof to win.
League One Rochdale fought back to earn an FA Cup third-round replay against Premier League side Newcastle United with a 1-1 draw at Spotland. The Magpies took the lead when Paraguay striker Miguel Almiron clinically finished from Christian Atsu's smart cutback. Despite enjoying the bulk of possession and chances, Newcastle were unable to find second goal as they lost Almiron and Yoshinori Muto to injury.
Ancelotti said he thought the midfielder "didn't affect the vision of the goalkeeper". And he said he would be "disappointed" if the dismissal resulted in being banned for the trip to his former team Chelsea next Sunday. The Everton boss is the first Premier League manager to be a shown a red card since the rule was introduced last year. Ancelotti said: "There was no explanation [from the referee].
It's a bit strange for all of us, but I've got my head around it," Winks told the club's website. We've all been given a schedule, but it's flexible, we can do it in our own time. So, for instance, I might have a lie in one day, but then I'll work later. The important thing is to get it done. On Sunday, the club said it gave Steven Bergwijn and Son Heung-min permission to return to their home countries.
Direct duel between opponents in the relegation zone, which could make the difference for the fight to avoid return in the lower rank. Host is in weaker position, since they have won only 10 points, and generally they cannot get out of the bottom, if league finishes regularly. They have all losing games recently, and could not even get closer to the first rivals.
We expect the scoreline to be fairly close once again this weekend as is usually the case in most of Atleti's top flight matches (no game decided by more than a two goal margin this term), but the visitors are strongly fancied to land the spoils based on all recent form and the sizeable gap in quality between these teams.
Farense will host Feirense for this fixture of the league. No doubt, the hosts have better team than their opponent. Farense is the best teams in this campaign. They are currently on the 2nd place with 30 points. Of course, the hosts will try to make a positive result. Hosts will go in this game to victory. However, I think, this will not be an easy task. I expect, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance. Also, we have Feirense who's is very average team in this league. However, Feirense have better results in the last mutual matches. My pick - Feirense to win.
Salford City have won just twice in their last five games, averaging a goal conceded a game. Their attacking output has been surprisingly good in this time, scoring eight, but this was helped by a 4-1 win over Oldham.

Watford were playing their first game under caretaker coach Hayden Mullins after Quique Sanchez Flores was sacked following their 2-1 defeat by Southampton and showed plenty of fighting spirit as Leicester had to sweat to continue their winning run. Winger Harvey Barnes was the hosts' biggest threat and had several opportunities, including a chance to double the lead when he raced towards an incisive pass from Vardy but he was thwarted from close range by a brave block from Mesina.
Who knows how much more they might have achieved but for the desperate tragedy of the Munich air disaster? The Busby Babes were travelling from Belgrade to Manchester via Munich on 6 February 1958, having just successfully reached their second European Cup semi-final Had the team survived, they might have beaten AC Milan in that semi-final and perhaps become the first British side to be crowned European champions.
He added: "I am absolutely delighted that our approach has been vindicated throughout, following an intense period of legal scrutiny and review. It has been a very demanding process, but I had complete confidence in the actions and decisions of the SPFL board and the SPFL executive team. SPFL chairman Murdoch MacLennan confirmed that three members of the organisation's executive team were interviewed by the panel and thousands of pages of evidence were considered.

Defensively they are poor, and overall they look like a bang-average football team. Their problem is they will always be compared to the great United teams of the past, so they appear even worse. They should still have enough to beat the Premier League's bottom side at Old Trafford, though, especially because Norwich striker Teemu Pukki is an injury doubt. With him in the side, if Norwich can create chances then I would back him to score.
The 16th round of the Italian championship is rich in bright signs - “Bologna” - “Atalanta”, “Fiorentina” - Inter ”and“ Cagliari ”-“ Lazio ”. It’s about the last meeting that we’ll talk about. Few expected the participants in this confrontation to be so high in the standings by mid-December - “Cagliari” is fourth, and “Lazio” is even one position higher. Last week, “sky blue” for the first time in 16 years beat Juventus at home, and “Cagliari” escaped defeat in the match with “Sassuolo”, recouped from 0: 2.
Zenit St Petersburg currently sit in third place in what is a tight Group G. They really need to pick up a win in this game to keep their dreams of qualification to the round of 16 alive as anything else would mean Europa League qualification would be much more likely. The side aren't in great form however, losing their last two games to RB Leipzig and failing to keep a clean sheet so far in the competition.
Arsenal has won in first leg in Greece against Olympiakos, so tonight this should be a routine victory for hosts. Arsenal plays on much higher level than their opponents, and it will be a huge surprise if they not with in this duel with at least more than 1.5 goals difference. Lacazette and Aubameyang will be in attack, and with Martinelli and Willock in the midfield, I am sure they will get many useful passes. Olympiakos Piraeus can be satisfied if they not concede more than 1.5 goals, their defense is weak, and even if they managed to score a goal, they will probably to lose in this duel with more than 1.5 goals AH
Assisted by Tristan Blackmon. Aston Villa's fans were brilliant when I was playing for them, and they were exactly the same right through Sunday's Carabao Cup final - despite most of it being a tough watch for them. When the final whistle went at Wembley, and all the Villa players were upset and on the floor after their 2-1 defeat against Manchester City, their fans were still there for them.
But football has borne witness to more unlikely stories. Like that 5,000-1 title winner a few years back. New Arsenal, same problems Freddie Ljungberg the Arsenal Interim Head Coach during the Premier League match between Norwich City and Arsenal FC at Carrow RoadGetty Images Speaking of those feckless misfits, the scale of the job on Freddie Ljungberg’s hands was made apparent on Sunday as Arsenal could only draw 2-2 at Norwich City in a game which again showcased their boundless capacity for awful defending.
Meeting neighbors in the standings. In the tight and evil championship of England, as anyone can bite - such matches always have additional connotations. The hosts only won once in the last five matches, although the calendar was not fatal. A match at home against a table neighbor is a real chance to throw him off the tail. The Wolves have clearly emerged from the crisis in recent weeks. The coaching staff found a balance between the Premier League and the Europa League. The roster is already balanced, victories and rise in the standings have come. Three draws with the score 1: 1 and two wins in the last five matches (one over City) is a good indicator for the team that started the season with a failure.
Villa, who are still searching for their first away clean sheet of any description and in any competition this season, shipped 2.125 goals per 90 minutes across their last eight fixtures on the road, and that porous backline should struggle badly again to contain a talented Leicester frontline this week.
Carlo Ancelotti could easily be referred to as "The Perfector" - the man an already successful team brings in to take them one step further and win the coveted grand trophies reserved for the very best. A proven winner with a trophy laden cabinet both as a player and as a coach, Ancelotti is the maestro associated with the big clubs and the big names in football. Now he is the manager of Everton, who have not finished above seventh place in the Premier League since 2014 and are 15th at Christmas this year.
Subs: Dallas 6, Stevens 6, Costa 6. KEY MOMENTS 16’ - CROSSBAR! Brilliant from Leeds again! Bamford this time collects the pass from Harrison in the box, but fires against he crossbar. Should really have scored! 32’ - SAVE! Another close call. Great cross from Luke Ayling, Alioski gets up, bravely gets his head to hit, but Martinez flings out an arm to claw the ball out.
Spain's health minister says he does not think fans will be able to return to football matches in the country when the new season starts in September. The government's department for sport and La Liga had hoped for fans to return at a reduced capacity. But the threat of a rise in coronavirus infections is set to prevent the move. To be honest, I don't see it, given the reality we are in," health minister Santiago Illa told radio station Cadena Ser.
Gent might have proven hard to beat on the road this season but the visitors have only kept clean sheets in 25% of their away games and have scored in 75% of their away matches while Saint-Etienne have only failed to score in 29% of their home games, which is why we have backed both teams to score on Thursday.

There's no update, no idea when he'll be back. Christian has had a big phase out and is desperate to get back. When (they can return) I'm not giving an answer. I can't see the answer. I'm hoping they might be fit over the next week or two, I just can't say it with clarity. Premier League leaders Liverpool lost their first league game of the season at Watford over the weekend and though Lampard believes it proved they were vulnerable, he said they have still had an "incredible season".

Cavani only has six months remaining on his contract and had also been linked with Manchester United and Chelsea.

There are no shortage of contenders and Aubameyang still has good market value. Meanwhile, Arsenal are plotting his succession (Odsonne Edouard of Celtic in particular), so the planets appear to be aligned for a big move. WHO IS INTERESTED? Barcelona have explored this for several months according to reports in Spain, Chelsea are likely to lose Michy Batshuayi and Olivier Giroud, and Manchester United jump on anything that moves.
Bournemouth winger Ryan Fraser has played his last game for the club, says manager Eddie Howe.
