English Premier League -- Brighton Hove Albion VS Newcastle United
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
Brighton & Hove Albion can ensure their Premier League survival when they welcome an out-of-form Newcastle United side to the Amex Stadium on Monday evening.  Brighton shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw with Southampton last time out, whereas Newcastle suffered their third defeat in succession against Tottenham Hotspur in midweek.  
Match preview  
Even though Brighton are still not mathematically safe with just two games left to play, the Seagulls are extremely unlikely to be at risk of dropping down to the Championship at this very late stage.   As things stand, Graham Potter's men are six points above the dotted line after 36 matches, although 18th-placed Bournemouth could close the gap on the teams above them when the Cherries play Southampton on Sunday before Brighton take to the field a day later.  West Ham United's 3-1 victory over Watford saw the Hammers leapfrog Brighton in the table as the Seagulls dropped down to 16th, but Brighton boast a far better goal difference than their fellow relegation rivals and a point against Newcastle would be enough to guarantee survival.  Potter's men have welcomed Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool to the South Coast following the Premier League's resumption, so the clash with Newcastle easily represents Brighton's most winnable home fixture since the restart, although the Brighton faithful will not be forgetting their memorable 2-1 victory over Arsenal in a hurry.  The Seagulls looked to be on course to secure another season in the Premier League when Neal Maupay put Brighton in front against Southampton, but Golden Boot hopeful Danny Ings netted a second-half equaliser for the Saints as the points were shared in Brighton's most recent outing.  
Meanwhile, Newcastle will not be mounting a late charge for a top-half finish as Spurs put Steve Bruce's men to the sword on their own turf on Wednesday.  Harry Kane hit the esteemed milestone of 200 club goals at St James' Park as Newcastle succumbed to a third defeat in a row - a disappointing end to the season considering their strong form upon the restart.   Indeed, the Magpies recorded two wins and two draws from their first four games back, but Bruce soon witnessed his side be trounced by Manchester City, narrowly overcome by Watford and comfortably swept aside by Tottenham in the past few weeks.  Newcastle were never likely to be dragged into a relegation dogfight - they have been assured of their Premier League safety for a while now - but Bruce will undoubtedly want to see his players make the long journey to the South Coast count for something on Monday evening.  The Magpies will face the daunting task of a final-day fixture against champions Liverpool next Sunday, and while the Reds have not been their usual dominant selves recently, Magpies fans will be sure to strap in for a long afternoon against the crop of attacking stars inLiverpool's ranks.  Newcastle have not beaten Brighton since the two clubs were plying their trade in the Championship, however, and the most recent meeting between the two sides ended in a drab 0-0 draw back in September.

Newcastle United Premier League form: DWDLLL
Newcastle United form (all competitions): LWDLLL  
Team News  
Brighton may have to make do without Adam Webster for the penultimate round of fixtures, but Potter has expressed his optimism over the defender's chances of making the cut.  Alireza Jahanbakhsh is also expected to shake off a hamstring complaint in time for Monday, but Steven Alzate and Jose Izquierdo both remain on the treatment table.  Brighton will most likely revert to their traditional four-at-the-back system for gameweek 37, which is likely to see veteran striker Glenn Murray drop back down to the bench.  As for Newcastle, Bruce is in a defensive crisis with the likes of Jamaal Lascelles, Fabian Schar, Florian Lejeune and Ciaran Clark all unavailable.  Midfield duo Isaac Hayden and Sean Longstaff are both expected to remain out for the rest of the season, while the tricky Allan Saint-Maximin is a doubt with a calf problem.  On a positive note, Newcastle will welcome Danny Rose back to the squad after he was ineligible to face parent club Spurs, and Bruce has confirmed that he has asked for permission to play 20-year-old Kelland Watts to help cope with Newcastle's hefty injury list.  
Brighton possible starting lineup: Ryan; Lamptey, Dunk, Webster, Burn; Bissouma, Propper, Stephens; Mooy, Maupay, Trossard  
Newcastle possible starting lineup: Dubravka; Yedlin, Fernandez, Watts, Rose; Ritchie, Shelvey, Bentaleb, Joelinton; Almiron; Gayle

English Premier League -- Sheffield United VS Everton
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
Sheffield United play host to Everton in the Premier League on Monday evening looking to boost their hopes of qualifying for next season's Europa League.  Meanwhile, the Toffees make the trip to Bramall Lane keen to end a four-match winless streak, while also bidding to remain ahead of 12th-placed Southampton in the standings.  
Match preview  
Having witnessed Sheffield United suffer a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Leicester City on Thursday evening, Chris Wilder was refreshingly honest about the performance of his side.   However, Wilder will hope that pulling no punches acts as the catalyst for an improved showing against their next opponents as they bid to return to the top seven in the table.  While there is an insistence that the Yorkshire outfit have enjoyed an outstanding season regardless of whether they qualify for Europe, Wilder may feel that opportunities such as the one in front of them may not come around again for some time.  That will be his message to a squad which had impressed before the setback at Leicester, recording invaluable victories over Tottenham Hotspur, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Chelsea.  With a trip to Southampton to follow and with Wolves facing an end-of-season visit to the latter of those teams, everyone associated with Sheffield United will be aware that two more victories may be enough for them to take a fresh step forward in their history.  Although Everton have very little to play for, Carlo Ancelotti will stress to his players that they are fighting for their futures after a poor run of results.  Just two points - from home draws against Southampton and Aston Villa respectively - have been collected from their last four games, with the manner of the defeat at Wolverhampton Wanderers highlighting that the Merseyside outfit are some way off challenging for the top six next season.  Despite under-performing against relegation-threatened Villa on Thursday night, Ancelotti will have been satisfied that his players kept fighting to claim a late share of the spoils.  However, Dominic Calvert-Lewin has gone eight games without finding the back of the net, something which only add to his motivation ahead of squaring off against his former club.  
Sheffield United Premier League form: LWDWWL  
Everton Premier League form: WWLDLD  
Team News  
With Mason Holgate having suffered a recurrence of a previous injury against Villa, Jarrad Branthwaite is expected to make his first Premier League start for Everton.  With Yerry Mina also unlikely to be fit, it effectively takes away the option of switching to a back three, a formation which failed to work against Wolves earlier this month.  Theo Walcott, who scored from the substitutes' bench in midweek, and Alex Iwobi could be given responsibility on the flanks.  Wilder will inevitably make alterations to his Sheffield United side, which should include a recall for John Fleck.  Lys Mousset and Billy Sharp are both pushing for a starting role ahead of David McGoldrick.  
Sheffield United possible starting lineup: Henderson; Basham, Egan, O'Connell; Baldock, Fleck, Norwood, Berge, Stevens; McBurnie, Mousset  
Everton possible starting lineup: Pickford; Coleman, Branthwaite, Keane, Digne; Walcott, Davies, Gomes, Iwobi; Richarlison, Calvert-Lewin

English Premier League -- Wolves VS Crystal Palace
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
Wolverhampton Wanderers head into their encounter with Crystal Palace looking for the three points which would keep the club in sixth place in the Premier League standings.  Palace make the trip to Molineux on Monday evening desperate to end a six-match losing streak, one which has seen them concede 15 goals over the same period.  
Match preview  
Heading into the closing stages of their game with Burnley on Wednesday night, Wolves head coach Nuno Espirito Santo would have been confident that his players would see out five minutes of added-on time to claim an invaluable win.  However, after initially being let off by a remarkable miss from Chris Wood, the forward converted a last-gasp penalty after a harsh handball decision went against Matt Doherty.  Although the West Midlands outfit had reason to feel hard done-by, Nuno will have told his players that they did not do enough to keep Burnley at bay, words which he will hope reinforce the message that they can ill-afford any slip-ups over the next two matches.  While Wolves' fate remains in their own hands, they could have dropped down to eighth position by the time that they take to the pitch on Monday evening.  After recently being regarded as contenders for the Champions League, that would bring the club back down to earth, leaving Nuno with a major job on his hands to orchestrate successive wins over their next opponents and Chelsea.  There is a strong argument that Palace are the ideal foes for Wolves at this stage of the season, but the Eagles suggested against Manchester United that they are not too far away from getting back on track.  Despite the record books showing half-a-dozen defeats in a row, Palace were denied a penalty in the minutes before United's opener, while also missing out on a deserved equaliser by an offside decision determined by millimetres.  While Roy Hodgson cut a frustrated figure in the dugout, he would have been more than satisfied with the level of performance from his players, eradicating any concerns regarding their confidence.  With games against European-chasing Wolves and Tottenham Hotspur to come, the veteran boss may enjoy a scenario where his team can express themselves against clubs under major pressure to end the campaign in the top seven.  
Wolverhampton Wanderers Premier League form: WWLLWD  
Crystal Palace Premier League form: LLLLLL  
Team News  
With Doherty and Jonny due to return at wing-back, it seemingly leaves Nuno with a straight choice between Diogo Jota and Daniel Podence further forward.  Jota, who netted a late equaliser in the reverse fixture in September, is expected to get the nod, partnering Adama Traore and Raul Jimenez in the final third.  That will likely lead to Joao Moutinho and Ruben Neves being used in midfield, resulting in Leander Dendoncker beginning the game among the replacements.  Palace continue to be without Christian Benteke, who serves the second of a three-match suspension.  Hodgson must also decide whether to use Jairo Riedewald, Jeffrey Schlupp or Tyrick Mitchell as a replacement for injured left-back Patrick van Aanholt.  
Wolverhampton Wanderers possible starting lineup: Patricio; Boly, Coady, Saiss; Doherty, Neves, Moutinho, Jonny; Traore, Jimenez, Jota  
Crystal Palace possible starting lineup: Guaita; Ward, Dann, Sakho, Schlupp; McArthur, Milivojevic, McCarthy; Townsend, Ayew, Zaha

Italian Serie A -- Juventus VS Lazio
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
Juventus can practically wipe out Lazio's Serie A title chances when the two Scudetto hopefuls go head-to-head in a crunch match on Monday evening.  Table-toppers Juventus have accumulated 77 points from 33 matches, eight more than Lazio, who have slipped down to fourth following a poor run of form.  
Match preview  
Even though Juventus still boast a healthy lead atop the Serie A rankings, the final stretch has not been as smooth as Maurizio Sarri would have hoped.  The Old Lady are now winless in three following their six-goal stalemate with Sassuolo last time out - having previously drawn with high-flying Atalanta and lost to AC Milan in the last couple of weeks.  Danilo and Gonzalo Higuain looked to have put the tie to bed early on against Sassuolo, but I Neroverdi produced a barnstorming comeback and Juventus were indebted to Alex Sandro's equaliser as they salvaged a point on Wednesday.  As things stand, Juventus are six points clear of second-placed Inter Milan and seven above third-placed Atalanta, but both sides can close the gap on the current champions should they both pick up wins on Saturday.  A ninth consecutive Serie A triumph is not in the bag yet for Sarri's men, although Juve can take a giant stride towards retaining their crown with all three points against an out-of-sorts Lazio side on Monday.  
Having pushed Juventus all the way before the lockdown period following a magnificent first half of the season, Lazio have simply capitulated in the last few weeks.  Simone Inzaghi's men had only tasted defeat twice in their opening 26 matches before play was brought to a halt, but Lazio have lost four since the restart and were held to a goalless draw by Udinese last time out.  Injuries and suspensions have plagued Inzaghi's side recently and there will be some inevitable fatigue amongst his regular fixtures, but it would take nothing less than a miracle for Lazio to achieve Serie A glory now.  Should I Biancocelesti lose this weekend, they will be 11 points adrift of Juventus with four games left to play, and Inzaghi will be keen to avoid any more substandard performances lest they risk dropping out of the top four.  While that occurrence seems highly unlikely, fifth-placed Roma have been on a strong run of form and can still pip Lazio to the fourth and final Champions League spot - in spite of the 12-point gap currently separating the two sides.  On an individual basis, Cristiano Ronaldo and Ciro Immobile are engaged in a two-horse race for the Capocannoniere, with the Lazio man currently boasting 29 goals for the season compared to Ronaldo's 28.

Lazio Serie A form: WWLLLD  
Team News  
Juventus will have to face Lazio without the services of Federico Bernardeschi after the Italian picked up his fifth booking of the season against Sassuolo.  Douglas Costa is therefore expected to fill the void on the right-hand side of attack, but Sami Khedira and Mattia De Sciglio are both on the treatment table.  Juan Cuadrado returns from a suspension of his own and is in line for a recall, while Paulo Dybala and Leonardo Bonucci are both in contention to feature from the opening whistle.  Lazio's injury list currently includes Senad Lulic, Adam Marusic, Joaquin Correa and Lucas Leiva, all of whom may not feature again this season.  Inzaghi is also facing a quandary in defence with Patric still banned, while Stefan Radu is understood to have suffered a calf injury against Udinese and could be out for the remainder of the campaign.  Lazio are extremely thin on the ground right now, but Jordan Lukaku and Bastos both came off the bench in midweek and could be in line for starts here.  
Juventus possible starting lineup: Szczesny; Cuadrado, De Ligt, Bonucci, Sandro; Rabiot, Pjanic, Bentancur; Costa, Dybala, Ronaldo  
Lazio possible starting lineup: Strakosha; Felipe, Acerbi, Bastos; Lazzari, Milinkovic-Savic, Parolo, Alberto, Lukaku; Immobile, Caicedo

English Premier League -- Arsenal VS Liverpool
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
Champions Liverpool continue their quest for more Premier League history when they take on Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday night.  Jurgen Klopp's side suffered a setback in their pursuit of top-flight immortality at the weekend, while the Gunners will be looking to bounce back from their North London derby defeat to Tottenham Hotspur.  
Match preview  
Whatever happens in the final fortnight of the 2019-20 Premier League season, Liverpool's exploits will go down in history - they shattered numerous records and wrapped up the title two games faster than any other team has ever managed in the English top flight before.   However, while the supporters would undoubtedly be content with 'only' ending their 30-year wait to be crowned champions of England, a tame end to the campaign would threaten to take some of the gloss off their remarkable achievements.  It was not long ago - at least in terms of games played - that Liverpool were being touted as possible Invincibles and treble-winners and looked certain to break Manchester City's 100-point record, having picked up 26 wins and one draw from their opening 27 games.  They have since won four, drawn two and lost two of their last eight top-flight outings, in addition to being knocked out of the Champions League and FA Cup - by no means enough to ruin their campaign, but certainly a drop-off in their previously unheard-of form.  Saturday's 1-1 draw at home to Burnley means that Klopp's side must now win all three of their remaining games - against Arsenal, Chelsea and Newcastle United - to break the points record, or take seven points from the nine available to equal it.  
The champions are more than capable of doing exactly that, of course, but those three teams will be feeling a lot more optimistic about taking points off the Reds now than they were before lockdown.  The Burnley draw brought an end to Liverpool's incredible winning run at Anfield as they dropped points at home in the league for the first time since January 2019, and their recent away form has actually been poor.   Last week's 3-1 triumph at Brighton & Hove Albion ended a five-match winless and goalless streak on their travels across all competitions, during which time they conceded 10 goals without reply.  Of course, these recent struggles also need to be kept in perspective; Liverpool have still amassed 10 points more than any other team away from home this season, and victory on Wednesday would see them break all-time club records for both most away wins and most wins overall in a single campaign.  Klopp's side are now battling against those legends of the past for their place in the historical rankings of England's greatest ever teams, rather than any contemporary rivals this season, and while the manager has claimed that he is not interested in that, there would be a small sense of a missed opportunity if they fail to capitalise fully on such an incredible start.  
More than one Arsenal side is in that same conversation of English football's best ever teams, but the current crop are a million miles away and the scale of the job facing Mikel Arteta was once again laid out for all to see during Sunday's derby with Spurs.  There were positives for the Gunners as they dominated the game for long spells, but they gifted Spurs both goals and it remains impossible to rely on such a shaky defence.  Arsenal have now thrown away a whopping 21 points from winning positions this season - a tally which, if added to their current points total, would leave them third in the table, only a point behind Manchester City and with Champions League football for next term already secured.  As it is, the derby defeat saw them slip to ninth, level on points with Burnley and with the possibility of a top-four finish now beyond them.  Instead, Arsenal's eyes must now be on qualifying for the Europa League again, although that could also prove problematic with seventh-placed Sheffield United four points ahead with only nine left to play for.  
The derby defeat should not cast complete doom and gloom over the club, though, as they had been making noticeable progress under Arteta before that, winning four and drawing one of their previous five games.  The Gunners can also boast an unbeaten home record in the Premier League this calendar year - a run which includes five wins and two draws, most recently being held by Champions League-chasing Leicester City.  Wednesday's match will be Arsenal's penultimate of the season at the Emirates, with Aston Villa away to come before hosting Watford on the final day - two games which look kind on paper but will come against teams fighting for their lives at the bottom of the table.  It has been a difficult run for Arsenal recently too, with four successive league games against teams currently above them in the Premier League table and an FA Cup semi-final against Manchester City to come at the weekend.  The FA Cup may be Arsenal's priority now given the damaging nature of the derby defeat on their league position, but Arteta has already shown during his time in charge that he will not accept a drop-off in any competition regardless of its importance between now and the end of the campaign.

Team News  
Arsenal will once again be without suspended striker Eddie Nketiah for this match as he serves the second of his two-game ban following his red card against Leicester.  Alexandre Lacazette made a statement in his absence with a thunderous opener in the derby, and he is likely to lead the line again with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in support.  The match features a number of Golden Boot hopefuls, with Aubameyang, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane all looking to retain the award, having shared it in a three-way tie last season.  Mesut Ozil remains a major doubt for the home side as he continues to struggle with a back injury, while Matteo Guendouzi is out of contention following a bust-up with Arteta.  Gabriel Martinelli, Bernd Leno, Pablo Mari and Calum Chambers are all expected to miss the remainder of the season for Arsenal, who have been hit badly by injuries since the restart.  Liverpool will also be without two key players for the remainder of the campaign - captain Jordan Henderson missing out with a knee injury and Joel Matip sidelined due to a toe problem.  Klopp is being cautious with the fitness of James Milner too, and the veteran midfielder is again expected to be absent for this one after missing out against Burnley entirely.  Trent Alexander-Arnold and Naby Keita are among the players who will be pushing for a recall to the starting XI, while Klopp must again decide whether to rotate one of his front three.  All of them boast impressive records against the Gunners, with Salah scoring six goals in six meetings, Mane notching four times in seven games since joining Liverpool and Roberto Firmino scoring eight times in nine appearances - his best record against any opponent.  
Arsenal possible starting lineup: Martinez; Sokratis, Luiz, Holding; Bellerin, Ceballos, Xhaka, Tierney; Saka, Lacazette, Aubameyang  
Liverpool possible starting lineup: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Keita, Fabinho, Oxlade-Chamberlain; Salah, Firmino, Mane  
Head To Head
Arsenal have a torrid record in this fixture recently, failing to win any of the last 10 meetings across all competitions and nine in the Premier League stretching back to April 2015.  They are often entertaining affairs too, with the most recent showdown ending 5-5 in the EFL Cup in October - Liverpool winning on penalties - and the last nine meetings producing 49 goals at an average of more than 5.4 per game.  The reverse fixture in the Premier League saw Liverpool run out 3-1 winners in August, with Salah grabbing a brace.
Arsenal VS Liverpool
Prediction:Arsenal 2-3 Liverpool

Italian Serie A -- Udinese VS Lazio
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
Two sides looking to bounce back from respective defeats at the weekend will lock horns in Serie A on Wednesday as Udinese play host to Lazio at the Stadio Friuli.  Udinese suffered a 3-1 home defeat to Sampdoria last time out, whereas Lazio's title charge was dealt another huge blow as they fell victim to a late Francesco Caputo winner during a painful 2-1 loss to Sassuolo.
Match preview  
Udinese's three-game winning run in the Italian top flight came to an abrupt end as Sampdoria cruised to victory over Luca Gotti's men in gameweek 32.   Le Zebrette had enjoyed impressive victories over Roma and SPAL either side of a 2-2 draw with Genoa prior to the weekend, but the defeat to Sampdoria means that Udinese are not out of the woods just yet as they sit six points above the relegation zone.  The clash with Lazio represents the first of three challenging fixtures for Udinese in the top flight, with Gotti's side tasked with taking on Napoli and Juventus after the meeting with I Biancocelesti.  For a side that enjoyed consistent top-five finishes between 2011 and 2013, the last few campaigns have been extremely disappointing from Udinese's perspective, and Le Zebrette are still searching for their first home victory since January.  With just six games left to play in the 2019-20 campaign, it is imperative that Udinese try to amass as many points as possible in the coming weeks, although they should feel optimistic going into Wednesday's clash given Lazio's recent run of form.
Lazio are running out of time to dethrone Juventus as Serie A champions, and Simone Inzaghi's men have been a shadow of their former selves since the top flight returned to action.  I Biancocelesti have now suffered defeat in their last three league games - a statistic that is only shared by basement side SPAL - and Juventus have a comfortable eight-point lead atop the rankings despite their recent struggles as well.   It is difficult to pinpoint the exact reason for Lazio's sudden decline in form - whether it is the hectic fixture schedule taking its toll or the mounting pressure on Inzaghi's men to usurp Juventus - I Biancocelesti have simply fallen to pieces over the past couple of weeks.  Should Lazio fail to pick up all three points against Udinese on Wednesday evening, the title race could already be well and truly over by the time Inzaghi's side make the trip to Turin to lock horns with Juventus at the weekend.  However, Lazio have enjoyed 10 victories in their last 11 meetings with Udinese across all competitions, and Le Zebrette have only netted three times against Lazio in Serie A since 2015.  
Udinese Serie A form: LLWDWL  
Lazio Serie A form: LWWLLL  
Team News  
Rolando Mandragora and Sebastian Prodl are Udinese's only injury concerns at the minute, but other than that Gotti has a full selection of players at his disposal.  Seko Fofana and Stefano Okaka are both in line to return to the starting XI for the midweek clash, and there could be some changes in defence with Rodrigo Becao hopeful of a recall.  Lazio's Patric will serve the second of his three-game ban for biting, while Senad Lulic, Adam Marusic and Joaquin Correa remain on the treatment table.  Jordan Lukaku made his first league start of the season against Sassuolo but only lasted 45 minutes of that fixture, and Lucas Leiva will be hoping to return to the Lazio midfield.  Ciro Immobile still leads the way in the race for the Capocannoniere with 29 strikes this term, but the Italian has failed to continue his prolific form from earlier in the campaign and Cristiano Ronaldo now sits just one goal behind the Lazio frontman.  
Udinese possible starting lineup: Musso; Troost-Ekong, Becao, Samir; Larsen, Paul, Fofana, Jajalo, Sema; Lasagna, Okaka  
Lazio possible starting lineup: Strakosha; Felipe, Acerbi, Radu; Lazzari, Milinkovic-Savic, Leiva, Alberto, Jony; Immobile, Caicedo

Italian Serie A -- Atalanta VS Brescia
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
Atalanta BC will be aiming to keep their slim hopes of Serie A glory alive when they welcome relegation-threatened Brescia to the Gewiss Stadium on Tuesday evening.  Atalanta currently lie third in the table before Inter Milan take on Torino on Monday evening, whereas Brescia are nine points adrift of safety with six games left to play.  
Match preview  
Atalanta's 2-2 draw away to table-toppers Juventus will certainly feel like two points dropped rather than one point gained as they strive to usurp the Old Lady in the Italian top flight.   Ruslan Malinovskiy's thunderous 81st-minute strike to put Atalanta 2-1 up was worthy of winning any game, but Gian Piero Gasperini's men succumbed to a second Cristiano Ronaldo penalty in the dying embers of the match following a handball by Luis Muriel.  Taking a point off the dominant force in Serie A is no mean feat and should be respected, but the result means that Atalanta currently sit nine points adrift of Juventus with six games left to play.  The stalemate with the Old Lady also brought Atalanta's nine-game winning streak in Serie A to an end in disappointing fashion for Gasperini, but with second-placed Lazio suffering their third defeat in succession at the weekend, the Scudetto race is far from done and dusted.  Gasperini's men will now endeavour to return to winning ways back on home soil, where they have won their last five and only failed to find the back of the net on one occasion this term.  Meanwhile, Brescia's battle to avoid the drop was dealt a huge blow as Roma comfortably swept the relegation candidates aside on their own turf at the weekend.  Things are looking increasingly ominous for Le Rondinelle who have now picked up just one win in their last 17 attempts in the Italian top flight, and a swift return to Serie B for last season's second division champions is looking all the more likely as the season draws to a close.  While the clash with Atalanta will not fill the Brescia faithful with optimism, Diego Lopez's men follow up the midweek fixture with bottom-of-the-table crunch matches against SPAL and Lecce to contend with.   The results from those two fixtures could spell the difference between Brescia rising above the dotted line or dropping straight back down to the second tier, but Lopez's men will arguably need nothing short of a miracle to secure their safety at this very late stage of the campaign.  A double from Mario Pasalic followed up by an injury-time Josip Ilicic strike gave Atalanta a comfortable 3-0 win in the reverse fixture.  
Atalanta Serie A form: WWWWWD  
Brescia Serie A form: DDLWLL  
Team News  
Robin Gosens was forced to withdraw from the Atalanta starting lineup after picking up a suspected hamstring injury in the warmup, and it remains to be seen whether the German will be fit in time for Tuesday.  That could mean another start on the left flank for Timothy Castagne, but other than that Gasperini has a fully-fit squad to pick from for the visit of Brescia.  The Atalanta manager may ring the changes with games coming thick and fast, meaning that Malinovskiy, Muriel, Pasalic and Mattia Caldara could be in line for spots in the starting lineup.  As for Brescia, Dimitri Bisoli remains on the treatment table, but Andrea Cistana has returned to training following an ankle problem.  Lopez may opt for a more defensive set up in an attempt to keep the free-scoring Atalanta at bay, and Jesse Joronen will be hoping to reclaim his spot in goal having been replaced by Lorenzo Andrenacci against Roma.  
Atalanta possible starting lineup: Gollini; Caldara, Palomino, Toloi; Hateboer, De Roon, Pasalic, Castagne; Malinovskiy; Muriel, Zapata  
Brescia possible starting lineup: Joronen; Sabelli, Chancellor, Papetti, Mateju; Tonali, Dessena, Ndoj; Spalek; Donnarumma, Torregrossa

-----------------------------------
Chelsea will be looking to bounce back from Saturday's loss at Sheffield United when they welcome already-relegated Norwich City to Stamford Bridge on Tuesday night. The Blues lost 3-0 to Chris Wilder's side at Bramall Lane, while Norwich's relegation was confirmed on Saturday when they suffered a 4-0 defeat at home to West Ham United.    
Match preview  
The race for the top four in the Premier League is threatening to go to the wire, with Chelsea, Leicester City and Manchester United battling for the two spots behind Liverpool and Manchester City. Fifth could yet be enough to qualify for next season's Champions League due to Man City's European ban, but there is no question that the three teams mentioned will be determined to finish inside the top four. Chelsea currently hold third, but Saturday's loss to the Blades mean that Leicester and Man United will both have the chance to go above them when they play their respective matches on Sunday and Monday. As a result, Frank Lampard's side could be down in fifth by the time that they take to the field for this match and another poor result against Norwich might leave them vulnerable to the teams behind them. Chelsea will fancy their chances of picking up a positive result, though, having won each of their last four Premier League games at Stamford Bridge, including victories over Manchester City and Watford since returning to the field following the league's postponement.  
Norwich, meanwhile, will already be thinking about next season, having had their relegation back to the Championship confirmed on Saturday afternoon. It was only a matter of time before the drop was confirmed, but there is no question that their supporters would have been incredibly disappointed with the manner of the defeat to West Ham, who ran riot at Carrow Road courtesy of four goals from Michail Antonio. The Canaries have now lost each of their last eight games in all competitions, including seven in the Premier League, while they have managed just one goal in their six league games since the lockdown period. Just five wins and 24 defeats from their 35 matches this season is an indication of their struggles in England's top flight, while they are comfortably the lowest scorers in the division with 26. A trip to Stamford Bridge is not quite what the team would have wanted after a four-goal loss at home to West Ham, but the pressure is now arguably off Farke's side, which could give them a boost.

Chelsea will again be without the services of Billy Gilmour for this match due to a long-term knee injury, but N'Golo Kante and Fikayo Tomori are both in contention to make their returns. Kante could ultimately be saved for the FA Cup semi-final against Man United on July 19, though, with Lampard unlikely to take any chances on the hamstring problem which has recently ruled the Frenchman out. There are expected to be alternations from the clash with Sheffield United, meaning that Antonio Rudiger, Marcos Alonso and Olivier Giroud are all in contention to start. Mateo Kovacic was on the bench against the Blades after overcoming a slight problem, meanwhile, and the Croatia international could return to the XI on Tuesday night. As for Norwich, Grant Hanley, Christoph Zimmermann, Moritz Leitner and Sam Byram remain unavailable for selection, but the Canaries did not pick up any fresh problems against West Ham. Todd Cantwell should return to the starting XI, having been named on the bench against the Hammers, while Kenny McLean is also in line to feature in the middle of the park. Farke is not expected to make wholesale changes, though, meaning that Teemu Pukki, who scored the last of his 11 Premier League goals back in January, should lead the line.
Chelsea possible starting lineup: Kepa; James, Christensen, Rudiger, Azpilicueta; Mount, Kovacic, Barkley; Pulisic, Giroud, Willian
Norwich possible starting lineup: Krul; Aarons, Godfrey, Klose, Lewis; McLean, Tettey; Hernandez, Cantwell, Buendia; Pukki

Italian Serie A -- Inter Milan VS Torino
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
Inter Milan welcome Torino to San Siro on Monday night knowing that they realistically have to end a two-match winless streak in order to get back into the Serie A title race.  Meanwhile, Torino head into the game having recently moved away from the relegation zone courtesy of a crucial victory over struggling Brescia.  
Match preview  
After witnessing Juventus lose out to AC Milan earlier this week, it threw open the door for Inter Milan to close the gap on their long-time title rivals.   However, only recording a 2-2 draw at Hellas Verona, courtesy of an 86th-minute equaliser from their hosts, has left Inter still 10 points adrift of Juve with seven matches remaining.  All things considered, the gap may prove too big at this stage of the campaign, but back-to-back defeats for Lazio have left Inter just three points adrift of second spot.  Although finishing as runners-up would still be perceived to be a disappointment by supporters and the media, Antonio Conte would view it as a minor success with more challengers emerging for next season's top-flight crown.  Conte will be hoping for an improvement from top goalscorer Romelu Lukaku, who has contributed just one strike from open play in his last five appearances.  While Torino went into this season with ambitions to make an impact in Europe and at the top end of the table, they needed a 3-1 success over Brescia on Wednesday night to put some distance between themselves and the relegation zone.  After conceding 10 goals in three successive defeats, the positive response was desperately required at a time when a fourth setback would have allowed their opponents to move closer to safety.  Moreno Longo, who had won just one of his first eight games in charge before that game, would have naturally had his concerns when his side went into half time facing a one-goal deficit.   However, the comeback will have given him reassurances over the character of his team, who have now provided themselves with a seven-point cushion above 18th-placed Genoa.  
Inter Milan Serie A form: WDWWLD  
Torino Serie A form: DWLLLW  
Team News  
Conte may drop Lukaku down to the substitutes' bench, allowing for the return of Alexis Sanchez in attack.  Alessandro Bastoni is expected to be restored to the defence after suspension, resulting in Diego Godin only being selected as a replacement.  However, Victor Moses, Nicolo Barella and Stefano Sensi all continue to miss out due to injury.  Torino are dealt a blow with Simone Zaza missing out on this game due to suspension.  However, Armando Izzo is likely to return to the backline after completing a ban.
Inter Milan possible starting lineup: Handanovic; Skriniar, De Vrij, Bastoni; Candreva, Gagliadini, Brozovic, Young; Eriksen; Sanchez, Martinez  
Torino possible starting lineup: Sirigu; Izzo, Nkoulou, Bremer; Aina, Meite, Rincon, Ansaldi; Verdi, Belotti, Berenguer

Spanish La Liga -- Real Madrid VS Alaves
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
Real Madrid will be looking to continue their charge towards the La Liga title when they welcome lowly Alaves to the Alfredo Di Stefano Stadium on Friday night.  Los Blancos currently sit four points clear of second-placed Barcelona at the top of the table, while Alaves occupy 16th, six points clear of the relegation zone with four games left.  
Match preview  
It is very much advantage Madrid at this stage of the campaign, with Zinedine Zidane's side sitting four points clear of second-placed Barcelona, who have dipped since returning to action after the lockdown period.   Barca will have the chance to move to within a point of their bitter rivals when they face Espanyol in the Catalan derby on Wednesday night, although the gap will again be four if Madrid were to overcome Alaves in this match.  Four points with three games left would be a huge advantage; Zidane's team do have potentially tricky games against Granada, Villarreal and Leganes to come, although it would be a surprise if they did not manage to pick up enough points in those fixtures to finish at the top of the pile.  Madrid have now won their last seven in the league, including their last three 1-0, which is title-winning form; their performances have not always been pretty since returning to action last month, but a run of four straight clean sheets is an indication of their improvement in that area of the field.  Only once since the 2011-12 season have Los Blancos managed to win La Liga, and they will be determined to pick up all three points on Friday to move a step closer to lifting the trophy.  
Barcelona will be hoping that Alaves can do them a huge favour in this match, but the omens are not exactly terrific for the Basque side, who are currently 16th in the table.  Indeed, Los Babazorros have lost each of their last five in the league, scoring just once in the process, which led to Asier Garitano being sacked as head coach at the weekend.   Juan Muniz, who last managed Malaga in 2019, has been placed in charge of the club until the end of the season, and the 51-year-old's first assignment could not be much more difficult.  Alaves are enjoying their fourth season at this level of football, and it would be a surprise if they were relegated despite their poor form, which has seen them slide down the table.  A total of 35 points from 34 matches has left them in 16th position, six points clear of 18th-placed Mallorca, which is a healthy advantage at this late stage of the campaign.  
Real Madrid La Liga form: WWWWWW  
Alaves La Liga form: WLLLLL
Team News  
Madrid will be far from at full strength on Friday, with key defenders Sergio Ramos and Dani Carvajal both suspended due to the bookings that they picked up against Athletic last time out.  Eden Hazard is also expected to remain on the sidelines with an ankle problem, meaning that Vinicius Junior and Marco Asensio could join Karim Benzema in the final third of the field.  Nacho's ongoing absence with a thigh problem means that Zidane has decisions to make in defence; Raphael Varane should be back from a head injury, having already returned to training, and the Frenchman could be joined at centre-back by Eder Militao.  Lucas Vazquez and Ferland Mendy are options for the right-back spot, meanwhile, and the latter could get the nod, allowing Marcelo to come into the side at left-back.  Alaves, meanwhile, have lost defender Ruben Duarte for the remainder of the season due to a foot injury, while goalkeeper Fernando Pacheco remains on the sidelines with a muscular problem.  The strugglers are otherwise in good shape when it comes to injuries, though, and it will be very interesting to see how Muniz approaches this game in terms of formation.  Joselu could return to the attack alongside Lucas Perez, while Pere Pons is also in line for a recall, meaning that Scotland international Oliver Burke could drop back down to the bench.  
Real Madrid possible starting lineup: Courtois; Mendy, Militao, Varane, Marcelo; Modric, Casemiro, Kroos; Vinicius, Benzema, Asensio  
Alaves possible starting lineup: Jimenez; Aguirregabiria, Laguardia, Magellan, Marin; Pons, Fejsa, Pina, Mendez; Joselu, Perez  
Odd analysis:
Even with Madrid's injury and suspension problems, it is difficult to imagine Alaves picking up something from this match. Los Blancos could only be a point clear at the summit by the time that they take to the field, but we expect Zidane's side to put another hugely important three points on the board.

Spanish La Liga -- Real Sociedad VS Granada CF
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
Two teams in the battle for a top-six finish in Spain's top flight will lock horns on Friday night as Real Sociedad welcome Granada to Anoeta Stadium.  Sociedad are currently seventh in La Liga, two points behind sixth-placed Getafe, while Granada occupy 10th, six points off the second Europa League position in the table.  
Match preview
Consistency has been a real issue for Sociedad this season, with the Basque outfit winning 15 but losing 13 of their 34 league matches, in addition to sharing the points on six occasions.   La Real have finished 12th and ninth respectively in their last two campaigns, though, meaning that a top-six position, and a return to Europe, would certainly be considered a success this term.  Imanol Alguacil's side are currently seventh in the table, two points behind sixth-placed Getafe, while they are also just three points off fifth-placed Villarreal in the battle for the Europa League.  Sociedad's form immediately after lockdown was poor, losing four of their five matches, picking up just a single point in the process.  They have taken four points from their last two La Liga games, though, beating basement side Espanyol at home on July 2 before picking up a point away to mid-table Levante on Monday night.  
Granada, meanwhile, will enter this game off the back of a 2-2 draw with Valencia on Saturday night; Diego Martinez's side were actually 2-1 behind heading into the latter stages of the match, but Fede Vico came up with a late equaliser as the points were shared at Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes.  El Grana secured a return to La Liga for the current season courtesy of finishing second in the Segunda Division last term, while they have not actually finished higher than 15th in La Liga since the 1973-74 campaign.   An impressive season has seen Martinez's team pick up 47 points from their 34 matches, which is enough for 10th position at this stage, four points behind Sociedad and six behind Getafe in sixth.  Granada will need a lot of things to fall their way in order to claim a top-six finish, but they won 2-0 at Alaves in their last away game on July 1 and another victory on Friday night would certainly put them in the argument for a potential Europa League spot.
Sociedad La Liga form: LLLLWD  
Granada La Liga form: DLDLWD  
Team News  
Sociedad remain without a number of first-team players through injury, with Joseba Zaldua, Jon Bautista, Adnan Januzaj, Asier Illarramendi and Luca Sangalli all still on the sidelines.  David Zurutuza is also a doubt with a knock, but the Basque outfit did not pick up any fresh concerns in their 1-1 draw with Levante on Monday night.  Alexander Isak made it two goals in two matches with a strike against Levante, and it seems likely that the 20-year-old will again get the nod in the final third over Willian Jose.  Diego Llorente and Nacho Monreal should return to the back four, meanwhile, with Alguacil expected to shuffle his pack during a vital stage of the season.  As for Granada, Alvaro Vadillo, Maxime Gonalons, Angel Montoro, Alex Martinez, Quini and Neyder Lozano remain on the sidelines through injury.  Martinez has no fresh injury problems, but the head coach is expected to make changes from the side that started against Valencia, with Fede Vico and Antonio Puertas in line to start.  Jesus Vallejo should also return to the heart of the back four, while veteran Spaniard Roberto Soldado is likely to keep his spot at centre-forward.
Sociedad possible starting lineup: Moya; Gorosabel, Llorente, Elustondo, Monreal; Merino, Zubeldia; Oyarzabal, Odegaard, Portu; Isak  
Granada possible starting lineup: Silva; Diaz, Vallejo, Duarte; Neva, Vico, Herrera, Foulquier; Puertas, Soldado, Fernandez    
Odd analysis:
Both sides will be determined to boost their top-six hopes with a victory, but we are struggling to separate them on this occasion. Home advantage perhaps makes Sociedad the favourites, but Granada have avoided defeat in nine of their 17 away league matches this season, and we fancy a low-scoring draw here

Real Sociedad 1-1 Granada

Italian Serie A -- Verona VS Inter Milan
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
Inter Milan make the trip to Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi to face Hellas Verona knowing that they realistically require maximum points if they are to remain in the Serie A title race.  Meanwhile, Verona are under pressure to improve on a run of just one win in four games, which has left the club battling to remain in contention for a Europa League spot.  
Match preview  
Through the opening six months of this season, Inter were regarded as the main challengers to long-time champions Juventus, often exchanging leads with their rivals who were struggling for consistency.   However, Inter's home defeat to Bologna has resulted in Antonio Conte's side now trailing the frontrunners by 11 points, leaving them with an almost impossible task.  While Conte will stress to his players that they must keep believing until Juve cannot be mathematically chased down, the head coach will acknowledge that they realistically must put together a 100% record until the end of the season.  More frustratingly for Conte, dropping five points in recent weeks is a result of capitulations at San Siro, which have undermined their comeback victory at Parma.  Although second position remains a realistic possibility, I Nerazzurri now only hold a one-point advantage over fourth-placed Atalanta BC.  On a positive note, they are squaring off against opponents in Hellas Verona, who have displayed similar frailties since the resumption of action.  Seven of the last 10 goals which they have conceded have come in the second half, three of which have been scored in the 90th minute or added-on time.  Such a record suggests that Ivan Juric's side have been behind their opponents in terms of fitness or are struggling to cope with the expectations of being in the race for Europe, a year on from having earned a return back to the top flight.   While there is still time to challenge the likes of Napoli and AC Milan for sixth spot, a third defeat in five matches on Thursday night would leave Verona at risk of dropping down to 12th place.

Team News  
Inter are able to call upon defender Milan Skriniar, who has been absent for the last three matches through suspension.  However, the centre-back will come into the team as a direct replacement for Alessandro Bastoni after his red card against Bologna.  Nicolo Barella misses out through injury, while Cristiano Biraghi could be preferred to Ashley Young at left wing-back.  Unlike their opponents, Verona head into this contest with a fully-fit squad.  Koray Gunter could be recalled in the centre of defence, with Valerio Verre potentially getting the nod over Fabio Borini further forward.  
Hellas Verona possible starting lineup: Silvestri; Rrahmani, Gunter, Kumbulla; Faraoni, Badu, Amrabat, Lazovic; Zaccagni, Verre; Carmine  
Inter Milan possible starting lineup: Handanovic; Godin, De Vrij, Skriniar; Candreva, Gagliadini, Brozovic, Biraghi; Eriksen; Martinez, Lukaku

Italian Serie A -- Spal VS Udinese
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
SPAL play host to Udinese on Thursday evening knowing that they need to end their four-match winless streak as soon as possible in order to retain hope of remaining in Serie A.  Meanwhile, Udinese head into the contest at Stadio Paolo Mazza having recorded four points from their last two matches, results which have helped the club move away from the relegation zone.  
Match preview  
With Udinese having gone nine matches without success either side of lockdown, manager Luca Gotti would have been fearing for his job at Stadio Friuli.   However, recording four points from games against Roma and Genoa has earned the Italian some breathing space with regards to his future.  Although conceding two late goals to draw with Genoa would have frustrated Gotti, a share of the spoils contributed to Udinese moving seven points clear of the bottom three.  ‎I Bianconeri face a tougher schedule over the coming weeks with Napoli, Lazio and Juventus being played in quick succession later in the month.  Nevertheless, registering all three points against their hosts on Thursday evening will effectively ensure that Udinese's fate remains in their own hands until after that testing triple-header.  From SPAL's perspective, they have reached a stage where they will have to go for broke in games such as the one this week, aware that the likes of Inter Milan and Roma are still to come in July.  Ideally, Luigi Di Biagio would be looking for his side to focus on improving their efforts in defence after shipping eight goals in their last three matches.  However, with eight points now the gap to Genoa, who also possess a better goal difference, they cannot afford for that deficit to move into double figures with few matches left on their schedule.   The biggest problem has been conceding during the closing 15 minutes, with three points having been dropped through late goals for Cagliari and AC Milan respectively.  
SPAL Serie A form: LWLLDL  
Udinese Serie A form: DDLLWD  
Team News  
Having been used as a substitute last time out, Andrea Petagna could return to the SPAL starting lineup.  However, the home side will be without Thiago Cionek, who begins a ban after picking up his 10th yellow card.  Udinese are also missing a player through suspension after Ken Sema was given his fifth yellow of the campaign at the weekend.  That should lead to Marvin Zeegelaar, also formerly of Watford, being handed a recall at left wing-back.  
SPAL possible starting lineup: Letica; Felipe, Vicari, Bonifazi, Reca; Castro, Valdifiori, Dabo; D'Alessandro, Petagna, Strefezza  
Udinese possible starting lineup: Musso; Maio, Nuytinck, Samir; Larsen, Paul, Jajalo, Fofana, Zeegelaar; Nestorovski, Lasanga

Spanish La Liga -- Athletic Bilbao VS Sevilla
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
Athletic Bilbao will be looking to return to winning ways and keep their top-six hopes alive when they welcome Sevilla to San Mames on Thursday evening.  Gaizka Garitano's side fell 1-0 to Real Madrid at the weekend and are five points off a European spot, while Sevilla are well on their way to sealing a top-four finish.  
Match preview  
After missing out on a place in Europe in back-to-back seasons, it looks as though continental football will again be absent from San Mames in 2020-21.   Saturday's loss to league leaders Madrid - Sergio Ramos's 73rd-minute penalty proving the difference in that one - leaves the Basque outfit down in eighth place.  There is a six-point buffer on Getafe in the final Europa League qualifying spot and only four games left to play, including this tough test against high-flying Sevilla.  Los Nervionense have seen off Leganes and Eibar in their last two matches without conceding to tighten their grip on fourth place.  Going further back, it is 11 league matches without defeat for Sevilla and they are also through to the last 16 of the Europa League.  
The immediate aim for Julen Lopetegui will be nailing down fourth, with the gap on Villarreal standing at six points.  Atletico Madrid have been in good form since the restart and are now two points ahead of Sevilla, but Lopetegui will no doubt be looking up the table rather than down.   Sevilla are out to make it six away league matches without defeat, which is something that they last achieved in 2015 when Unai Emery was in charge.  However, they have lost their last nine trips to San Mames and have failed to score in five of those matches, making them Athletic's favourite opponents.  Should that losing run continue in midweek, and Villarreal come away with all three points against Getafe, then it may yet be a tense final week or so to the season for Sevilla.  
Athletic Bilbao's La Liga form: DWLWWL  
Sevilla's La Liga form: DDDDWW  
Team News  
Raul Garcia picked up another booking against Madrid at the weekend and will therefore serve an automatic suspension.  Oscar de Marcos is the most likely option to come into midfield alongside Unai Lopez, with Inaki Williams spearheading the attack.  The hosts will also be without Yeray Alvarez after he limped off last time out, so Inigo Martinez is likely to be partnered by Unai Nunez at centre-back.  As for Sevilla, goalkeeper Tomas Vaclik is in a race to be fit after injuring his knee against Eibar, meaning that Yassine Bounou may come in for just a second league start of the season.  Lopetegui is expected to go with Munir El-Haddadi on the left of his front three - the Spanish forward has scored three goals in his last five league meetings with Athletic, all for different teams.  
Athletic Bilbao possible starting lineup: Simon; Capa, Nunez, Martinez, Yuri; Garcia, Lopez; Marcos, Muniain, Cordoba; William
Sevilla possible starting lineup: Vaclik; Navas, Kounde, Carlos, Escudero; Jordan, Fernando, Banega; Ocampos, De Jong, Munir

Spanish La Liga -- Mallorca VS Levante
Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips| Asian Handicap Odds|Line-ups& H2H Stats
-----------------------------------
Mallorca are running out of time to save themselves from La Liga relegation as they prepare for Thursday's visit of mid-table Levante.  Los Bermellones have won just one of their last seven games and are six points adrift of safety, while Levante enter this game sitting 14 points better off in 12th.  
Match preview  
Mallorca revived their slim survival hopes with a 5-1 victory over Celta Vigo last week - Ante Budimir helping himself to a couple of goals - but they failed to build on that win.  Friday's 3-0 loss at the hands of Atletico Madrid was another nail in the coffin for Vicente Moreno's side, with a six-point deficit to make up and just four games remaining.  A trip to Sevilla aside, Mallorca have some pretty favourable fixtures to see out the season, taking on three sides in mid-table with little left to play for on the face of it.  That is a category Levante fall into as they are 14 points above the relegation zone and 10 points off a European spot with 12 points on offer.  The Granotas have drawn back-to-back matches - against Real Valladolid and Real Sociedad - and have lost only one of their last eight matches.  
After losing five straight games on the road between January and February, Levante are unbeaten in their three away matches since returning to action last month.  A charge for the top six is out of the question, however, and it is now a case of jostling for position in the bottom half of the division.  That is a luxury Mallorca would love to have, of course, as they go in search of their first back-to-back home wins since last October.   Three points on Thursday, coupled with the sides above them dropping points, and Moreno's men just may yet be in with a shot of pulling off the great escape.  
Mallorca's La Liga form: LDLLWL  
Levante's La Liga form: DWLWDD  
Team News  
Budimir, who is Mallorca's highest scoring player in a single La Liga season since Aritz Aduriz in 2009-10, returns from suspension for Thursday's match.  Juan Hernandez is expected to retain his place up top, so it may be Aleksandar Trajkovski who makes way for the visit of Levante.  The hosts will also welcome back Martin Valjent after his suspension, with Aleksandar Sedlar the favourite to drop out of the backline.  As for Levante, Enis Bardhi has served a ban and should slot into midfield in place of Jose Campana.  Sergio Postigo is doubtful with a hip problem picked up against Sociedad, meanwhile, so Rober Pier may get the nod alongside Ruben Vezo.  Winger Ruben Rochina has scored in his two La Liga games against Mallorca - one for Real Zaragoza in 2013 and the other for his current club in the reverse fixture this season.
Mallorca possible starting lineup: Reina; Pozo, Valjent, Raillo, Gamez; Rodriguez, Sevilla, Baba, Kubo; Budimir, Hernandez  
Levante possible starting lineup: Fernandez; Coke, Vezo, Pier, Tono; Hernani, Melero, Radoja, Bardhi; Marti, Leon
