Villa, meanwhile, remain two points from safety as they rest in 19th position. TALKING POINT Was it a penalty? Oliver awarded a penalty to Leicester, one that killed the game as a competition.

B36 Torshavn started this season fantastic. They won in the first leg of this league against Klaksvik the best team from the previous season 2:0 and then they got three easy victories in a row. They scored 14 goals and conceded only 3 in four matches. They play the best football in this league so far and today they will play against HB. This clash is the most important today and I hope that the hosts will win. The visitors also won four matches but I don't think that they will be able to beat B36. There is a difference between those teams and we should see it

Croatia 1. HNL, Round 31. Varazdin had a very difficult schedule in the last 3 rounds. In that period, they played against Rijeka and Hajduk, which are at the top of Croatian football.
