BBC Sport’s presenters and pundits predict what will happen at Euro 2025. Read full article at source...
Did anyone see Liverpool’s Premier League title triumph coming? We didn’t. Not one of the 30 BBC pundits we asked to pick the top-flight’s top four before the season started predicted that the Reds would be champions – the closest were Stephen Warnock and Fara Williams, who both said Arne Slot’s side would finish second....
Rachel Corsie, Scotland captain Inevitably there has to be goals. While it’s hard to see any other outcome beyond Celtic winning against Aberdeen, especially when in Glasgow, there is always a tiny bit of optimism when it comes to fandom! That said, making it through extra-time and enjoying a couple of goals is the best...
As you all know, it’s not often I’m wrong about anything but you may remember me saying in a previous predictions article that I thought I held the record for the fastest senior goal at Goodison Park for my effort after 12.94 seconds for Blackburn in 1995 until Abdoulaye Doucoure scored after 10.18 seconds for...
Arsenal were really good against Paris St-Germain on Wednesday, and I was impressed by how brave they were, but they still went out of the Champions League. There will be Gunners fans out there who will think they should be winning more trophies than they have managed under Mikel Arteta, who has still not added...
The Premier League’s bottom two meet at King Power Stadium on Saturday, so will Leicester or Southampton manage to pick up a rare victory? “Saints still need a point to beat Robbie Savage’s useless Derby side, and avoid a share of the ‘worst Premier League team ever’ trophy,” said BBC Sport football expert Chris Sutton....
Retired world champion Barry Jones: “I think Eubank wins on points. Benn might be able to tough it out as he is a tough kid, but I don’t know if he has the ability. Eubank can’t make middleweight no more, it drains him and he beat an old Liam Smith in their rematch. But he’s...
FA Cup semi-final Wembley, 16:30 BST 4th in Premier League v 3rd in Premier League Gap = 1 Last major trophy? Forest: 1990 League Cup. City: 2024 Premier League Best FA Cup run? Forest: winners in 1898 & 1959. City: winners x7 between 1904 & 2023 Live commentary on 5 Live Sports Extra and BBC...
Is there anything that man can’t do? The forecasts are out for the moribund German economy – which suddenly and conveniently no one can remember was already in the toilet and has been circling for the past two years – and darned if they aren’t downright gloomy. This is alarming for the EU’s economic engine....
I am at this game for Radio 5 Live and am looking forward to it. It is so hard to call, because of where both teams are at. Everton will work hard, of course, but they are also very capable of winning this if they are as ‘in your face’ as they can be, and...
As I look at the two ties left now, I think it’s going to be one of the first-time winners, so either Arsenal or PSG, whoever comes through their semi-final. That’s a shame for one of them because they are the two best teams in the competition. It’s very hard to choose between the two...
I wanted Arsenal to try to push Liverpool in the title race but boss Mikel Arteta clearly knew something I didn’t, resting his players against Everton last weekend and then demolishing Real Madrid the way they did. Arteta will make changes again here, before Wednesday’s second leg at the Bernabeu, and the fact it won’t...
Mychelle was born and grew up in Stoke Newington, north London, but says there was no chance of her supporting her local club, Arsenal. “I support Chelsea because of my step-dad – he always had their games on the TV – but my mum is a Tottenham fan and she was adamant that I could...
I am concerned how Nottingham Forest will cope without Chris Wood up front if he is out injured. At the moment it is not clear how serious his problem is. Forest made quite a few changes against Brighton in the FA Cup over the weekend, and still got through without ‘the Wood-chopper’, but they really...
Vitality Stadium, 16:30 BST 10th in Premier League v 5th in Premier League Gap = 5 Last major trophy? Bournemouth: never. City: 2024 Premier League Best FA Cup run? Bournemouth: quarter-finals 1957 & 2021. City: winners x7 between 1904 & 2023 This is such a difficult tie to call. Bournemouth were the team who started...
