Real Madrid
vs
Getafe

Match Schedule:
Date: October 31th
Time: 16:00 (GMT)

Real Madrid will be desperate to secure victory over local rivals Getafe in La Liga on Saturday as coach Manuel Pellegrini looks to end a worrying run of three defeats in the side's last five matches.

Madrid were beaten 4-0 on Tuesday by third-tier side Alcorcon in their King's Cup first leg, leading club president Florentino Perez to request that supporters to show patience towards the former Villarreal boss. Doubts had been raised over his future in the Spanish media.

Tiny Alcorcon, who play in the same league as Real's youth team and have a budget more than 400 times smaller than the Spanish giants, managed to humiliate Pellegrini's side despite the presence of Spain defenders Raul Albiol and Alvaro Arbeloa, and several other internationals.

The defeat followed last week's 0-0 La Liga draw at Sporting Gijon, which allowed champions Barcelona to open a three-point lead at the top of the standings, and a 3-2 home loss to AC Milan in the Champions League.

Albiol, who spent a season at Getafe in 2004-05, said he had not slept a wink on Tuesday night after the Alcorcon match.

"We are sad and upset but we know we have another match on Saturday and we have to turn the page," he said on the club's website. "We are with the coach to the death and we have to translate his ideas onto the pitch."

Cristiano Ronaldo, who did feature against Alcorcon, will again be missing on Saturday and will be out of action at least until he has another test on his damaged ankle in a week's time, the club said on Wednesday. They had won every game with their record signing in the side but have slumped to three defeats, a draw and only one victory in all competitions since his injury last month.

Meanwhile, Getafe coach Michel, a former Real player and ex-director of their youth programme, said his players were full of confidence after Wednesday's 2-0 King's Cup win at home to Espanyol.

"We are coming to Madrid in good spirits and in good shape," Michel said after the match. "Sometimes at the Bernabeu that's not enough but the important thing for us is that we play our game and stay solid."

Barcelona also won 2-0 in the cup on Wednesday, with coach Pep Guardiola deploying a second-string side at third-tier Cultural Leonesa, and the European champions play at mid-table Osasuna on Saturday.

Also on Saturday, Quique Sanchez Flores makes his league debut as Atletico Madrid coach at Athletic Bilbao as he begins the task of turning around their troubled season, while third-placed Sevilla travel to promoted Xerez.

Undefeated Barca have 22 points from eight matches, Real have 19 and Sevilla 16. Valencia and Deportivo Coruna are both on 15 points in fourth and fifth respectively and surprise package Real Mallorca are sixth on 14.

Spanish Primera Liga 2009



Barcelona
vs
Osasuna

Match Schedule:
Date: October 31th
Time: 18:00 (GMT)

Back From The Brink

After surviving relegation last season, Jose Antonio Camacho's side look more like the Osasuna of old and can be pretty pleased with how their season has gone so far. They go into this game with just one defeat in six games and will, as always, be ready for a fixture they have faired relatively well in down the years.

Since their promotion to the Primera Division in 2000, Osasuna have established themselves as a tricky opponent for even the best sides in Spanish football. Against Barcelona have a record of four wins, five draws and nine defeats in those nine seasons. However, it's their form against the smaller sides that so often lets them down.

In fact, their conclusion to last season's campaign typifies their existence as a Primera Liga side. With three games to go, Osasuna needed to pull off a miracle to avoid relegation but did so, drawing with Sevilla before beating Barcelona and Real Madrid to secure their top flight status. That kind of miraculous recovery makes you wonder what they were doing in the relegation spots in the first place.

Camacho's side don't concede many goals at home and so far only Sevilla have managed a win in Pamplona this season. However, the hosts know it will take their best performance of the term to take anything from this game against the champions.

Championship Credentials

The trip to the Reyno de Navarra in Pamplona has proved a worthy examination for Barcelona in recent years and here begins a testing series of games for Barca between now and the end of November. This sequence culminates in home ties against Inter and Real Madrid, so now is not the time to slip up.

On recent form there is no reason why they should falter. Guardiola's side laughed off suggestions of a 'crisis' after a draw away to Valencia and a home defeat to Rubin Kazan in the UEFA Champions League. They came out against Real Zaragoza intent on proving that this team is by no means finished. That 6-1 demolition job last time out in the Primera Liga was as an emphatic dismissal of any hint of even the smallest crisis.

Wins in games like this tie against a tenacious, physical Osasuna side are what make champions, and Barca will go there with the same mentality as always, looking to attack from the first minute, creating chances and trying to win. Three points may not come this weekend but once the intent and the hunger is there Guardiola will not be disappointed. He knows that if his team continue to demonstrate the necessary desire, their sheer talent will take care of the rest nine times out of ten.

The defeat to Rubin was by no means a wake up call, but it probably will make the Blaugrana a little more clinical in front of goal. The win over Zaragoza quelled any suggestion of them becoming nervous so, with injuries abating, there is little else other than a strong resolve and a near perfect display from their opponents stopping Barca winning here.

TEAM NEWS

Osasuna

Jose Antonio Camacho has no injuries to worry about going into this game.

Probable Starting XI (4-4-2): Ricardo – Monreal, Josetxo, Miguel Flano, Azpilicueta – Camunas, Nekounam, Punal, Juanfran – Aranda, Pandiani.

Barcelona

Thierry Henry may be fit and Pedro amongst the goals, but Andres Iniesta may start wide left to add a little extra to the Barca midfield in a game that will be won and lost in this area of the pitch. Those rested in the Copa del Rey should be fresh and raring to go.

Probable Starting XI (4-3-3): Valdes – Puyol, Pique, Chygrynskiy, Abidal – Keita, Xavi, Busquets – Messi, Ibrahimovic, Iniesta

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Osasuna

Uruguayan striker Walter Pandiani has been in lethal form so far this season with six goals in the league, just one behind Pichichi leaders Zlatan Ibrahimovic and David Villa. He has scored in his last two attempts against Barca, including a winner at Camp Nou.

Barcelona

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has proved all doubters wrong with his prolific start to his time at Camp Nou. The Pichichi leader gives Barca that added physical presence up front to ease pressure on the rest of his team.

PREDICTION

These games are always tight and Barcelona have not won by more than a goal in Pamplona in nine league attempts. This may be one of those rare occasions when the champions drop points.

Osasuna 1-1 Barcelona

Live Streaming Xerez vs Sevilla Watch Football Spanish Primera Liga On October 31th

Spanish Primera Liga 2009



Xerez
vs
Sevilla

Match Schedule:
Date: October 31th
Time: 18:00 (GMT)

As local derbies go, this one will not be the most hotly anticipated of the season, but for the home side they will see this as a great chance to make their name in the top flight of Spanish football.

Xerez became the 59th team to play in Primera Division when they unexpectedly won promotion last season to take their place among the big boys for the first time in their 62-year history.

Predictions were immediately made that the team would make a straight return to the lower echelons, and they have done little to convince anyone that those were wrong.

But there has been some hope for Cuco Ziganda's team, who have managed to secure five points, with two wins and a draw, and are above neighbours Malaga in the bottom three.

After failing to score in their opening five matches, an own goal saw them hold Malaga and then some incredible defending by Villarreal allowed Xerez to beat them.

Normal service has been resumed in the past two matches, with defeat at Tenerife in the league and at home to Osasuna in the Copa del Rey. However, all that will be behind them as Sevilla visit as thoughts turn to an upset.

Euro Distractions

Sevilla will certainly have other ideas, but their biggest problem could be complacency - they will consider themselves as clear favourites to take all three points.

Having won their opening five matches, Sevilla have now not scored in their last two league outings. They were beaten by Deportivo a fortnight ago before coming up against Carlos Kameni and Espanyol last Saturday.

Manolo Jimenez's side are still in touch at the top, lying three points behind Real Madrid and six adrift of league leaders Barcelona.

Tipped as outsiders to challenge the duopoly of the Blaugrana and Los Merengues, the visitors here will have to rediscover their consistency and any slips will see the familair shrug of the shoulders from the critics.

Sevilla's emergence as a force in Spanish football could well be something that Xerez could look to copy at their own level though as careful buying and crafting a side has been behind their recent success.

The home team in this game may have a much smaller budget, but the principles of nurturing homegrown talent and attracting misfits and cheap imports could see them extend their stay in la Primera beyond on season.

TEAM NEWS

Xerez

David Prieto, Armenteros and Casado are allout as they are on loan from Sevilla and have it written in to their contracts that the may not face their parent club. If the hosts do fancy playing any of the trio it will cost them €200,000 for each player. Xerez have another four former Sevilla stars in their ranks in Antonito, Abel, Michel and Redondo.

Probable Starting XI: (4-4-2) Renan; Francis, Leandro Gioda, Aythami, Mendoza; Keita, Bergantiños, Orellana, Carlos Calvo; Maldonado, Bermejo

Sevilla

Andres Palop and Adriano are both close to making comebacks but the duo will have to wait for the Champions League encounter in midweek against Stuttgart. Frederic Kanoute, Federico Fazio, Tom de Mul and Acosta are all still out meaning that Jimenez will again have to shuffle his pack. The absence of Kanoute guarantees Alvaro Negredo and Luis Fabiano starting places, but Arouna Kone is also in the squad and could be given a chance to show what he can do.

Probable Starting XI: (4-4-2) Varas; Konko, Squillaci, Dragutinovic, Fernando Navarro; Navas, Renato, Zokora, Perotti; Negredo, Fabiano.


PLAYERS TO WATCH

Renan Brito (Xerez)

On loan from Valencia, the Brazilian goalkeeper has a point to prove after being ousted from los Che's side last term by veteran Cesar Sanchez. Facing two of the best strikers in the division he will be crucial to Xerez's chances.

Alvaro Negredo (Sevilla)

Scored twice for Spain in his last appearance and has to continue to prove himself at club level after announcing that even if Real Madrid do try and buy him back, he may refuse to return.


PREDICTION

The only realistic way that Xerez will take anything from the game is if they score early and hold on or are able to keep Sevilla out and snatch a late winner. Any punters out there looking for an outsider though maybe disappointed as the visitors should win this comfortably.

Xerez 0-3 Sevilla

AC Milan coach Leonardo was quick to answer questions of unrest between himself and Ronaldinho as he looks ahead to the Parma clash on Saturday.

'Dinho appeared to lament his substitution against Napoli and was not impressed as he sat on the bench at the San Paolo. Reports claimed he was annoyed with Leonardo, but the coach has clarified the situation.

"There is no problem with Ronaldinho. I have a special relationship with him. Everyone has been expecting Ronaldinho to perform. He is here now, and he has to do it," Leonardo told the press.

"I want him to give his maximum because he can always guarantee an important contribution."

Milan have been enjoying a good moment, but the coach wants to see more output from the team.

"We have to use our energy well in order to improve. We have had a positive period with the games against Napoli, Chievo Verona and Real Madrid and we hope it continues," concluded the Brazilian.

Match Schedule:
Date: October 31th
Time: 16:00 (GMT)

On Wednesday night Napoli pulled off a stunt in the home match against Milan, picking up a draw in an encounter that seemed lost with two goals in injury time to make it 2-2.

This weekend they travel to face Juventus in Turin, and president Aurelio De Laurentiis is hoping for another great match.

"Juventus-Napoli is a very tough match, as it would be against Milan, Inter or Fiorentina," he told journalists near the Lega Calcio offices in Milan. "In a match like this, you are no longer a president, you're a fan."

In recent big matches such as Juventus-Sampdoria and Inter-Palermo, which finished 5-1 and 5-3 respectively, there have been a lot of goals and spectacular football, which De Laurentiis thinks is a good sign for Calcio.

"I'm happy if there are good matches in Italian football," he continued. "I hear Italian football isn't doing well, but when we consider what Milan have won and the Italian national team, I don't think we can complain."

The president then went on to praise new coach Walter Mazzarri, who has obtained two wins and a draw in his first three matches.

"He's fantastic because before the match he becomes a mysterious object, and doesn't even tell me anything," he said. "He doesn't want to lose concentration, he follows his philosophical ideas and I'm fine with that."

Live Streaming Manchester United vs Blackburn - English Premier League Match On October 31th

English Premier League 2009



Manchester United
vs
Blackburn Rovers
Match Schedule:
Date:October 31th
Time: 16:30 (GMT)

Having been involved in a series of goal-gluts in recent weeks, Blackburn Rovers head to Manchester United on Saturday hoping their defence can finally hold firm. Rovers' last three Premier League matches have seen them lose 6-2 to Arsenal and 5-0 to Chelsea either side of a 3-2 win over local rivals Burnley, while they beat Championship strugglers Peterborough 5-2 in the Carling Cup on Tuesday.

Yet, while they have not kept a clean sheet in the league for two months, the swine flu outbreak at the club is perhaps the more serious concern, with Sam Allardyce the latest person at the club to have reported symptoms of illness. The threat of infection will be worrying for Sir Alex Ferguson, too, as he cannot afford to lose first-team players ahead of a week in which they host CSKA Moscow in the Champions League on Tuesday before heading to Chelsea for a potentially vital Premier League clash the following Sunday.

The 2-0 defeat to Liverpool has increased the importance of Saturday's game for United, and there have been signs of frailty at the back lately that may mean both managers have reason to worry about their defence on Saturday evening.

Manchester United player in focus: Antonio Valencia. Having made a slow start to life at Old Trafford following a relatively quiet few months at the end of his time with Wigan, Valencia is finally starting to recover the form that persuaded United to pay around £16 million for his services. The Ecuador winger struck the bar at Anfield following his first goals for the club against Bolton and CSKA Moscow, and he can exploit any defensive disorganisation with his crossing ability.

Blackburn player in focus: Franco Di Santo. Although perhaps unlikely to start if Blackburn play one man in attack, the on-loan Chelsea forward showed against Burnley why he is touted as a star of the future. Has the spark that could unlock the game if Blackburn are able to frustrate the hosts.

Key battle: Wayne Rooney v Paul Robinson. Any member of the United attack could be up against any member of the Blackburn defence here, but Robinson may have to take responsibility for organising his frequently disorganised back-line, particularly given Rooney's intelligence of movement. If the United man has now fully recovered his fitness, Robinson can expect to face a barrage of shots from his former England team-mate.

Tactics: With Valencia now providing some penetration from out wide, United are able to stretch the play, and the movement of Rooney, Dimitar Berbatov and Michael Owen as well as the continued good form of Ryan Giggs should present Blackburn with plenty of problems. The concern will be that, if Fletcher misses out, Rovers are able to dominate the game in the midfield, which may result in a recall for Anderson to help protect the defence.

Antonio Valencia: Finding his feet at United

Damage limitation will no doubt be the aim of the game for Sam Allardyce, and he could rely on Jason Roberts or the improving Nikola Kalinic to hold up the play if he looks to bypass the United midfield.

Quotes: Sam Allardyce on his side's failure to win away in the league this season: "I have to resolve this problem immediately because if I don't it becomes like the yips in putting in golf. You can't put the little two-footer in to win the tournament and if the yips go on and on you get a greater and greater problem, so we have to solve it by the time we turn out at Old Trafford."

Jonny Evans on Michael Owen: "Every time Michael comes on he gets into really good positions. He changed the game a bit for us on Sunday. It was the first time we really looked like getting in behind Liverpool. It was good for him against Barnsley to get another goal."

In the news: Blackburn's swine flu outbreak continues to make headlines. Sam Allardyce stayed away from the team during the Carling Cup win on Tuesday and left his assistant, Neil McDonald, to speak to the press post-match, but the message is that the situation is now under control.

Manchester United team news: Nemanja Vidic returns to the side after serving a suspension for his two yellow cards against Liverpool, but Gary Neville misses out after his straight red against Barnsley in the Carling Cup on Tuesday. Darren Fletcher is hoping to return from a foot problem, but Ji-sung Park is ruled out.

Blackburn team news: Pascal Chimbonda and Vince Grella are both injury doubts, but it is hoped David Dunn and Christopher Samba will have recovered from illness to take part.

Probable United line-up (4-4-2): Van der Sar, O'Shea, Evans, Vidic, Evra, Valencia, Scholes, Anderson, Giggs, Berbatov, Rooney.

Probable Blackburn line-up (4-5-1): Robinson, Jacobsen, Samba, Nelsen, Olsson, Diouf, Nzonzi, Emerton, Andrews, Pedersen, Roberts.

Soccernet prediction: Blackburn are likely to be focused purely on frustrating United but they have shown a tendency to collapse in recent weeks. It is difficult to see anything other than a United victory, particularly as they look to bounce back from the Liverpool defeat ahead of next week's trip to Chelsea.

Live Streaming Bolton vs Chelsea - English Premier League Match On October 31th

English Premier League 2009



Bolton
vs
Chelsea
Match Schedule:
Date:October 31th
Time: 14:00 (GMT)

The Blues ran out comfortable 4-0 winners at Stamford Bridge in midweek, and manager Carlo Ancelotti will be looking for a repeat performance as they try and keep their place at the top of the Premier League table.

Chelsea had four different players on the scoresheet during the Carling Cup victory, Salomon Kalou, Florent Malouda, Deco and Didier Drogba all bagging a goal in the rout, and Bolton boss Gary Megson will hope his defence can do a better job of containing the attacking threat on Saturday.

However, the Trotters should bear in mind that the six times that the Blues have faced back-to-back league and cup games in the last 15 years, the result has been repeated on four occasions.

Both sides are expected to make changes to the teams that were selected in the cup, after a number of players were rested in preparation for the league clash.

Chelsea will welcome back Nicholas Anelka to the starting line-up against his old club as he teams up with strike partner Didier Drogba once again, and in-form midfielder Frank Lampard will also return to the side after being an unused substitute in midweek.

Petr Cech will come in between the sticks as a replacement for Hilario, and Joe Cole could keep his place after impressing on his last two outings as he tries to step up his return to full fitness.

Captain John Terry will also return in the centre of defence, but Ancelotti will have to decide who will partner Terry at the back - with Alex and Ricardo Carvalho vying for a first-team berth.

Salomon Kalou and Branislav Ivanovic are doubts, while Ashley Cole (ankle), Jose Bosingwa (knee), Yury Zhirkov (knee) and John Mikel Obi (knee) are all out.

Bolton news

Gary Megson also tinkered with his starting line-up for the Carling Cup clash, and powerful striker Kevin Davies will come back up front to lead the line.

The big forward has scored five goals against Chelsea during his career, and the Blues will have to be wary of the problems he can cause as the spearhead of Bolton's direct approach.

Davies could be partnered up front by Ivan Klasnic, who played at the Bridge on Wednesday and scored the winner in the Trotters' last league game against Everton last weekend.

Klasnic bagged the decisive goal in the 3-2 win over the Toffees at the Reebok Stadium, and Megson could change the formation to 4-4-2 if he wants to include the Croatian forward.

Possible starting XIs:

Bolton: Jaaskelainen, Samuel, Ricketts, Cahill, Knight, Taylor, Muamba, Cohen, Gardner, Davies, Klasnic

Chelsea: Cech, Belletti, Terry, Carvalho, A Cole, Essien, Ballack, Lampard, J Cole, Anelka, Drogba
