Bale has scored his share of decisive goals in the most important games for Real but the Spanish media constantly accuse the Wales forward of lacking commitment to the cause. I'm a defender of Bale, he's an incredible player," Brazil international Casemiro told radio station Onda Cero on Friday. People only talk about the bad things he does off the pitch, but they don't talk about what he does well, like the goals he scored in finals that won us trophies.
All has not been well with Pirates in the recent matches; they have not scored in any of their last two matches and are low on confidence after their loss to arch rivals Kaizer Chiefs. They face a side with the best defence in the league and though Pirates have been dominant in the last few meetings, we don’t see them getting much here. Pirates have a good away run too, but Mamelodi Sundowns are one of the toughest to beat at home. Sundowns have not been scoring a lot lately though, and we are backing them for a 1-0 win here.
The best player on the pitch was the youngest, the 22-year-old Ghanaian Samuel Kuffour. He and his fellow marker Thomas Linke nagged United’s forwards incessantly, while Jens Jeremies did the same in midfield. Matthaus, who started as a sweeper, was asked by Hitzfeld to move up into midfield where possible so that Jeremies could push up closer to Beckham.

GremioGetty Images FULL STORY 19:10 - Liverpool reverse furlough decision Liverpool have listened to the cacophanous volume of pelters being aimed their way since they said they were going to take state cash to furlough their workers, and announced they will front up the whole wedge instead.

There had been talk about Matic leaving Old Trafford during the current transfer window but Solskjaer has ruled that out and it is understood midfield is one of the areas the club are trying to strengthen. Their problem is that while players in that position are available - former Liverpool player Emre Can is surplus to requirements at Juventus - the club do not want to get bounced into either paying too much for a player they do want or signing someone as a short-term measure, even if the consequence is continued on-field inconsistency.

It is hard to know what to expect from the Magpies this time - they are safe so have nothing to play for, unlike Watford who are fighting for their lives. I'd have to back the Hornets here, but I'm expecting more of a fight from Newcastle. They won't get battered again. Lawro's prediction: 2-0Scotty's prediction: Newcastle are one of the teams who seem to be thriving without fans putting pressure on them, when there can be a pretty toxic atmosphere at St James' Park because of the way their supporters view their owner.

Benfica to win with a clean sheet is the bet to make.
