If Bromley were at home, I would suggest a home win. With them being at Newport County, who are on the precipice of the relegation area, they need points to survive dropping out of League Two and into the National League. Bromley might be doing all the pressing, but Newport County could hold on to earn a point rather than lose on home soil.

Bolton, in third place, can control matters against Doncaster Rovers by taking the lead, playing better football, and possibly adding two more goals for a 3-0 win that keeps them in this position for another week all longer.

Cardiff City took the bull by the horns at Exeter and hammered them 4-0. Now at home against Wycombe, who have lost their last two games, they will be meeting a team with confidence oozing from them. This could see midfielder Rubin Colwill scoring once again; he scored two of the four in last week's game. His teammate, striker Yousef Salech, who has twelve goals this season, could be making it thirteen and might reach fourteen with a brace. The Bluebirds could run out 3-1 or 3-0 winners, with the latter expected. They have 180 minutes of play ahead, during which goalkeeper Nathan Trott could keep his goal safe and have his defence organised and focused.

Inverness are expected to win this home game. They have lost only one of their league games at the Tulloch Caledonian Stadium and have conceded only nine in the fourteen home fixtures played. Winning this home game, the only League One match tonight in Scotland, would allow them to pull three points clear of Stenhousemuir, who are currently level on points with them. Losing or drawing would see that advantage and possibly the league title slip away. This is a game they must savour with all three points.

Kenilworth Road could be jumping, with Luton Town beating Exeter for the third time in a row at home. In doing so they could make it another 90 minutes without conceding to Exeter, taking the tally to 270 minutes. They have scored five goals against Exeter: 4??"0 in the TRO Cup and 1??"0 in the league. They may hit two or even three tonight, with Exeter not being at their best.

Salford City at home could be calling the shots over Barrow, who may struggle to rise to the occasion and lose this match, keeping them in the bottom three. Salford will be trying to upset Notts County and take their position by moving into fourth.

Stockport need points on the board to reach a playoff and Northampton need to record a win to leave the bottom three with relegation hanging over their heads. A home win could be feasible. Northampton, looking at their last five games, have not won, and playing here at Edgeley Park they might see Stockport secure a win by a couple of goals.

Arsenal left it late to find an equaliser against Bayer Leverkusen last week, which came from the penalty spot to make it 1-1. This week they can secure the win and next-round action in the Champions League, with the game seeing over 2.5 goals.

Chelsea are against a brick wall after losing the first leg 5-2. I cannot see PSG allowing this advantage to slip. They can sit back and allow Chelsea to come to them, then counter-attack and put the tie out of Chelsea's reach by winning this game.

Could not believe the score with which Real Madrid won last week, 3-0. They seem to have got their act together after looking laboured the week before in the league. Manchester City have been hot and cold this season, and to be honest, no one knows what team is going to turn up. Manchester City's defensive play can be appalling at times. If this is the case at home tonight, they may be conceding and making the three away goals they conceded harder to claw back. Real Madrid to master Manchester City at the Etihad.
