This should be a cracker of a cup tie. Oxford have already beaten West Ham United at home this season and have a good cup record. Newcastle regularly struggle in cup games and a lot will depend on how strong a line-up they field. A bet on both teams to score is the suggested wager here.
The last seven Manchester United away league games have all seen under 2.5 goals scored. Brighton have either failed to score or scored just once in nine of their home league games this season. Brighton and Hove Albion are edging towards securing another season in the Premier League. They are 15th at the time of writing this preview and host sixth placed Manchester United.
Sports psychology has traditionally been about on-the-field issues, about graphs and data," he said. Sports psychotherapy is more about looking after the human being and building relationships and not trying to fix things but getting the individual to look at their personal problems off the field. Cricket and rugby are way in advance of football. Football is still in the Neanderthal age at times, you would think in 2020 some of these issues would be addressed.
Two more goals saw Bournemouth win a Premier League game after trailing at half-time for the first time in 28 attempts to leave them just three points from safety. Howe told Sky Sports "We had to find something, have no fear. We did that right from the off in the second half and it vastly improved our performance. The goals always change games and we haven't scored enough of them recently. It was probably the first time in a long time where we've had some luck.
Eddie Howe's side started brightly but Alli, who appears to be flourishing under Mourinho, was the catalyst for Spurs' victory. Toby Alderweireld's raking pass created Alli's opening goal, with the England midfielder racing on to Son Heung-min's touch to tap the ball past Cherries goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale. Alli's second came from the same source, as he superbly controlled Alderweireld's pass before holding off Jack Stacey and flicking the ball over Ramsdale.

The biggest obstacle is always the final bit - the last 1% or 2% - and going above them to try and beat them. A big obstacle we have to overcome' England missed a couple of decent chances against the USA but in the end were well beatenNeville has spoken of a two-year plan to prepare for the European Championship in 2021 and named a young squad for the tournament in the US. Injuries to key defender Lucy Bronze and forward Beth Mead were a blow but Neville said this week he "trusted" the ability of his young players.
I call him 'Mr' which is the Spanish for 'boss'. I have to tell people [what I mean] when I call him 'gaffer'. It's so different. Is Simeone the best manager in the world now? For me, personally, yes. When people actually play for him they realise how good he is. Obviously you've got some good managers: Klopp, Guardiola. Sean Dyche! You've got quality managers out there but he's certainly up there for sure.

The veteran coach transformed the team, merging Atalanta's latest home-grown youngsters with a multi-national cast of journeymen and obscure signings, using the fluid 3-4-3 system he honed at Genoa. It is entertaining, it is risky, but by and large, it has worked. Atalanta came fourth in Gasperini's first season, seventh in 2018, and third in 2019. They also reached last year's Coppa Italia final. If Gasperini is the mastermind, long-serving captain Papu Gomez is the fans' favourite.
When the pair met at this venue, just two weeks ago, the game finished 0-0, before The Gills sneaked ahead in extra-time. Defensively, Steve Evans' men will be hoping for more of the same. If they can once again keep The Black Cats quiet, then they'll fancy themselves to get the win.
Spurs have now failed to win in their past six games and are seven points adrift of the top four in the Premier League. From the outside, Mourinho has never really seemed like an arm-around-the-shoulder kind of manager, and there's usually at least one player who gets on his wrong side at some point - for Sergio Ramos, Luke Shaw and Paul Pogba, now read Tanguy Ndombele. After Spurs' 1-1 draw with Burnley last week, Mourinho made a wafer-thinly veiled dig at Spurs' £54m record signing.

Arsenal are without a manager following the sacking of Unai Emery, while Bayern Munich have Hansi Flick in interim charge following their dismissal of Niko Kovac.

Match where I think the most likely result is the draw. Derby Country is a very strong team they have an average of 2 goals per game but they face the team that conceded the least goals. therefore, I expect a very close game where I think that the draw can be worth to both of them, the derby is at the top of the table but a draw can keep the aspirations of promotion. In addition matches between both teams in the last two three there were two derby victories and a draw and I think it can be repeated again.

The club also confirmed that defender German Pezzella fractured a cheekbone in a collision with an opponent.
The differing approaches were probably best evidenced by their altercation during the Reds' match against Burnley in August.
