Fortunately for Wednesday's hosts, Brighton rank as the joint-worst travelling team in the division. The Seagulls started the campaign by winning away at Watford, scoring three and conceding none in the process, though they've since gone nearly four months without securing a second travelling win.
A wobble in the second half of the season threatened to undo the good work achieved by Pearson but impressive home form has kept Watford going. They are the only team to have beaten Liverpool in the league this season, that win coming at Vicarage Road, a venue where they have won four of their last six league matches.

Chelsea were stunned at home by an out of form West Ham team on Saturday to miss a chance to move into second. See alsoChelsea v West Ham - LIVE Premier League updates Frank Lampard's side, who were involved in a chaotic game in the week at Valencia, look slack and short of ideas throughout the game.
Paper Round’s view: Arsenal are one of the most cash rich clubs in Europe, so one can understand that the players are not entirely impressed with the notion of a pay cut. However, the lack of confidence in their own ability does rather show how they have fallen off the pace in the Premier League, and bargaining this hard may prevent the club from rebuilding next season.
Aston Villa also earned an important win at the bottom by beating Burnley and Watford won again under Nigel Pearson with a 2-1 victory over Wolves. Brighton earned a point against Chelsea while Norwich and Crystal Palace drew 1-1. Here's my team of the week - have a read and then select your own below. Goalkeeper - Kepa Arrizabalaga (Chelsea) The first save, at full stretch, from Aaron Connolly was sensational and his second with his feet from Neal Maupay was almost as good but just as important.
Barcelona added they would shortly decide "on the treatment to be followed for his recovery". Spanish outlet Marca said Dembele will now miss the rest of the season. Dembele has suffered several injuries in both legs since joining Barcelona from Dortmund in 2017. He has played only three full games for the La Liga champions this season and has missed 63 games in all competitions at Barcelona due to injury.
With the team he assembled, we thought it would happen in his tenure," Wright added. He's three years in with a team that has played at a really high intensity and City have not been able to stay up with a Liverpool side that have kicked on. City return to league action on Sunday against 18th-placed West Ham United.
I can't believe, with the investment that has been put into the squad over the last five or six years, you end up with that out on the pitch. I can't change the ownership of Manchester United - no-one can - but I am struggling to understand why the ownership has persisted in trusting that management team to oversee that investment. If you don't lose your job for overseeing that investment, that wage bill and putting that team out on the pitch, something is really wrong.
There comes a point in the lives of most young footballers when they think they're not going to make it. A lot don't. But, for Shrewsbury Town striker Daniel Udoh, that dark moment came six years ago when he was down in the ninth tier of English football in Hertfordshire at non-league Hoddesdon Town. This Sunday, he could be lining up against reigning European and world club champions Liverpool. And, whether or not the Premier League leaders will be anywhere near full strength for the FA Cup fourth-round tie, 23-year-old Udoh "needs no motivation".
It is sometimes walking off the pitch with another defeat and standing up again. The pressure is always there and you make most of the pressure yourself because you invest so much preparing the team. It's more like a breather when you take points or have done a good job. The reason you are sometimes so disappointed is that you have disappointed your fans. You wanted to give them a fantastic weekend, a fantastic evening and you didn't.

This, after all, was a young man who had scored a stunning goal for Scotland in a major final the night before. Roxy was good on unusual set pieces but we made a mess of it and the ball dropped to me," he said of his strike. I had four Czechs running at me and I just dribbled right through them, did the keeper, and tapped it in. If there is one goal I'd love to have on video, it's that one. Just to see if it is as good as I think it was.
Leicester City will be feeling the heat when they welcome Crystal Palace to the King Power Stadium on Saturday. The Foxes are third in the table but have failed to win since the restart and their rivals are catching up. Chelsea are now only one point behind in fourth with Manchester United and Wolves a further two points back in fifth and sixth respectively.
I took my time to prepare myself for the next challenge. Honestly, United for me is in my book of experiences, it's in my history book. Mourinho left United when they were sixth in the Premier League. They are currently ninth under his successor Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, but just two points behind Tottenham, who are fifth. The 56-year-old won the League Cup, the Europa League and the Community Shield during his time at United, as well as finishing runners-up in the league in 2017-18.
Match of England Premier League. Liverpool will play at home with team Watford. I will take guests with AH +0.5 here. Hosts are unbeaten in Premier League. It will be not easy to continue the same way. Every next team is very determined to stop this series. This season teams loki Arsenal or Tottenham didn't win with Watford. Most of people are waiting for defeat from Liverpool with Man UTD or Man City. But sensation will be with weak team. I predict guest win her. But my bet will be on Watford how asian handicap. I recommend to try this way for good odds .
I’ll see you in Italy soon. VAR 'a mess' says UEFA president UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin has labelled VAR “a mess” but concedes there is no way to reverse the decision to use video technology.

Read the full story here 10:05 - Jose's return Jose Mourinho's two-year stint at Manchester United was not always a happy one but the Portuguese harbours no bitterness at the club and says he is now a better manager as he prepares to return with Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday.
Five of Villa's last 10 games are against top-seven clubs but that does not matter as much as it might have done normally according to Lawro, who says: "The form that teams are in once they restart will be all that matters when you consider which games are most difficult in the run-in"This is a chance for them to put that behind them, though. They were on a run of four straight league defeats when the season stopped, but it won't feel like that because it is so long ago that they last played - 100 days, exactly, since they lost 4-0 at Leicester on 9 March.
Marooned in mid-table is not where Birmingham fans want to see their side, but that's exactly what they're faced with at present. Moreover, Blues are unlikely to climb up the table all the time that they're making hard work of picking up regular wins.

Reims haven’t been awful with three draws and a loss in their last four league games, a testament to their incredible defence which has still managed to concede the second least chances of any team in this time, but a lack of attacking force has seen them stall as of late. Reims have just one goal in their last four games but have a saving grace in the shape of their home form. At the Stade Auguste Delaune they have lost just one of their last eight games and this could make it an extremely tight affair as they host a team great on the road.

Meanwhile, Verona have been defying expectation with their goals conceded tally. So far this season they’ve been conceding 18 shots per game on average. Only conceding 5% of those isn't something we see the promoted side sustaining. That will be hard to maintain in their toughest home clash of the season, with Fiorentina averaging 1.7 goals per game on the road, converting 11% of their chances.
