Tippeligaen: Brann Vs Odd Grenland - Betting Tip
Team NewsBrann made two changes in the 2-0 win over Viking, replacing young midfielder Kristoffer Larsen with the more experienced Fredrik Nordkvelle, and underperforming left-back Erdin Demir with Hassan El Fakiri. The veteran El Fakiri was particularly solid at the back and we might see more of him in that position this season; and Nordkvelle’s appearance also paid off, with the midfielder scoring with a fine finish for Brann’s second.
Odd once again swapped defenders Morten Fevang and Fredrik Jensen in their starting line-up for the 1-1 draw with Molde. Forward Havard Storbaek’s good form continued with a goal.

Premier League: Stoke City - Norwich City
Stoke City and Norwich City will both be riding when they go head-to-head in the Premier League on Saturday.
Both sides are fresh from victories in their mos recent outings, with Tony Pulis' men recording a much-needed 2-0 victory against Queens Park Rangers, while Chris Hughton's side ended a six-match winless run with a 2-1 triumph over Reading.
The three points came in handy for both teams and the winner at the Britannia Stadium will be assured of a spot in the Premier League in 2013-14.
The loser will still likely be a part of the top flight, but they will still have to endure a nervy finish to the season - with only six points separating Stoke from the bottom three,

Europa League: Basel 1:2 Chelsea
A last-minute David Luiz strike earned Chelsea a crucial 2-1 victory over Basel in the sides' UEFA Europa League semi-final first leg clash.
Both teams looked dangerous in possession throughout an evenly contested game but it was the visitors who were able to turn that threat into chances as they scored from their first attack courtesy of a Victor Moses header from a Frank Lampard corner.
It seemed likely that Chelsea would come away without a win when Cesar Azpilicueta gave away a late penalty for a foul on Valentin Stocker and Fabian Schar made no mistake from 12 yards. However, the game would take a further twist as Luiz slammed in a free-kick with seconds remaining.

Premier League : Southampton - West Brom
Southampton will be keen to add to their unbeaten streak when they welcome West Bromwich Albion to St Mary's on Saturday.
The Saints have steered away from relegation danger with 12 points in their past six fixtures - including momentous wins over Liverpool and Chelsea - to remain unbeaten since their 2-1 loss to Queens Park Rangers in early March.
They are one point from the magical '40' mark that is widely regarded as being the number required to secure safety.
West Brom have failed to win in their past four - including drab draws against Stoke and Newcastle, plus losses to West Ham and Arsenal - but still sit three points clear in eighth spot in the table.

Premier League: Everton - Fulham
Everton will be aiming to keep their European dream alive when they host Fulham on Saturday.David Moyes' side have failed to win their past two in the league - hence falling out of contention for the UEFA Champions League, and are five points off Tottenham in fifth.
Everton must overhaul Spurs to gain entry into next season's UEFA Europa League, but with just four games left that appears an unlikely outcome, especially with the London club having a game in hand.
However, it is the only meaningful thing either side has to play for at Goodison Park - with Fulham dwelling in 11th position on 40 points.

Premier League: Manchester City - West Ham
With their title hopes extinguished, Manchester City can only hope to sew up second spot in the Premier League as they host West Ham on Saturday.Roberto Mancini's side's failed defence of their maiden Premier League title was confirmed when rivals Manchester United beat Aston Villa 3-0 on Monday.
But City can all but ensure they finish runners-up with three points in the early kick-off, as this - their game in hand - can see them go eight points clear of third-placed Arsenal with four matches remaining.
Sam Allardyce's West Ham, though, have provided stiff opposition of late - stringing together five matches unbeaten since a 2-0 loss to Chelsea in March.

Reina ridicules Suarez suspension
Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina has described the 10-match ban given to Luis Suarez as "absurd, out of proportion and excessive".
Reina held nothing back in his assessment of Suarez's ban, handed down after he bit Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic in Sunday's 2-2 Premier League draw at Anfield.
The 30-year-old said Suarez had been treated unfairly due to his reputation and that he was a fantastic person off the field.
"I consider myself a friend of Luis. People in England are treating him different because he is Uruguayan or because he has had a previous episode like this," Reina told Spanish radio station Cadena Cope.

La Liga : Atletico Madrid - Real Madrid
Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid go head to head this weekend with both pride and second place in La Liga at stake for the victors.
Atletico have performed above all expectations this season and spent a large part of the campaign ahead of their city rivals in the league table.
Real were able to climb back into second position behind Barcelona but a win for the home side in this fixture would move them level on points.
History is not on Atletico's side as they have not beaten Real since 1999, have lost their last nine meetings and manager Diego Simeone has never tasted victory in the league since taking charge.
