Two sides who have their sights set on clinching a play-off ticket this season, Palermo will travel to Catanzaro on Friday night.
Starting with the hosts, while Catanzaro might have gained a string of plaudits since making their Serie B return this season, Vincenzo Vivarini’s men are in the midst of an extended wobble. Making an immediate return to losing ways last weekend as they eventually slumped to a woeful 3-0 drumming at the hands of Feralpisalo, the Southern Eagles have lost four of their previous five second-tier appearances a run that stems back to December 9th. Signing off 2023 with a 1-0 defeat against Reggiana, the former Bari boss will also have a mounting headache over his side’s continued defensive issues. D…

The report has claimed that the Seagulls are willing to sell the Argentina international midfielder and want as much as €75 million in transfer fees.

Desperate to make up some ground in the Champions League chase this weekend, Manchester United will travel to Luton on Sunday afternoon.
Luton Town
Starting with the hosts, missing out on what they had billed as a golden opportunity last weekend as they eventually slumped to a costly 3-1 drumming at home against Sheffield United, Luton find themselves at the heart of a relegation scrap. While Rob Edwards’ side might have continued to receive plenty of praise since making their shock Premier League return this season, the Hatters currently find themselves holding just a single-point buffer from slipping into the drop zone. However, despite suffering a first defeat of 2024, Luton have shown some extended inconsistencies on home soil. W…

Freddie Ljungberg believes Arsenal now need to make a swift decision in their search for a new manager.
Arsenal slumped to a 3-0 defeat against Manchester City on Sunday, with Kevin De Bruyne playing the starring role with two excellent goals and an assist.
The Gunners have managed just one victory in 12 games across all competitions, with Ljungberg having overseen the last five matches on an interim basis following Unai Emery s dismissal.
However, the search for a new permanent boss does not appear to be nearing its completion, with reports suggesting City assistant Mikel Arteta is still a primary target, and Ljungberg has urged Arsenal to make a decision soon.

Leicester boss Dean Smith knows he will have fulfilled a “big ask” if he can guide his side to Premier League survival on Sunday.
The Foxes must beat West Ham at the King Power Stadium and hope Everton do not win against Bournemouth if they are to avoid relegation to the Championship.
Smith was parachuted into an eight-game SOS mission following Brendan Rodgers’ sacking at the beginning of April but has recorded just one victory from his first seven games and accepts that his side have not done as well as he thought they would.
The 52-year-old has experience of producing the great escape as he led Aston Villa to seven points from their final four games of the 2019/20 season to beat the drop and says something similar would be required.

Erik ten Hag has outlined his Manchester United vision on his first day in the job and warned the club s underperforming stars that good is not good enough .
The 52-year-old was announced as interim manager Ralf Rangnick s successor last month on a three-year deal with the option of a further 12 months.
After guiding Ajax to a third Eredivisie title in his four full seasons in charge, Ten Hag ended his contract with the Dutch giants early to start work with United ahead of schedule.
Ten Hag was in attendance for Sunday s 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace, which ensured United finished sixth in the Premier League and with their lowest-ever points tally.
United have not won the title since Alex Ferguson s final season in 2012-13, though they did finish as runners-…
