Forward Antonio, fresh from scoring four against Norwich in the previous game, took his tally to nine for the season with a calm, left-footed finish to set them on their way. Soucek's flying header and Rice's delightful goal ended the game as a contest, despite there being nearly an hour still to play. West Ham stalwart and captain Mark Noble made his 500th appearance for the club and will be particularly overjoyed with the result having previously been part of the side that was relegated to the Championship at the end of the 2010-11 campaign.

If somebody had said to me in August in Munich, after we won to go through, that we'd be in the semi-final in May time, no, I'd have found that very, very hard to believe," O'Leary says, remembering the mammoth task his team faced. The first round of fixtures delivered a humbling 4-0 defeat at the Nou Camp by a Barcelona side who, although far from a vintage crop, counted the talents of Patrick Kluivert, Marc Overmars and former World Player of the Year Rivaldo among their number.
Peterborough have been virtually impossible to stop at home of late, which is positive ahead of a game against a Donny side that has been very underwhelming on the road. Punters can profit from this game by siding with a home win. Doncaster don't often receive a thrashing, but their lack of goals is a big worry ahead of a trip to Weston Homes Stadium, where Posh are averaging 2.5 goals for. Not only have Peterborough won seven of their last eight at home, scoring plenty of goals in the process, but they've kept a clean sheet in six of those eight, which strengthens their hopes of beating a low-scoring team even more. Doncaster's record of scoring just one goal in four away games against top- six teams, none of which they've won, bodes well for the hosts too. Lastly, Posh boast an average-shots-on-target supremacy of +3.00 at home, while Donny's is -0.14 on the road.

Dukla Prague is sitting right now on 4th place in the league standings because they won two games in a row in the league as they first defeated Sokolov with 3-1 at home and second win for them last round was away from home at a pretty decent Prostejov side where they also scored 3 goals but once more conceded that time even 2 goals as they narrowly won the game with 3-2 in the end. So games they won but with over 3.5 goals scored in them.
Celtic, though, have now won 10 consecutive domestic matches away from Celtic Park and have cleaved open a significant lead at the summit, albeit having played a game more.

The FA Cup is usually seen as a welcome distraction for struggling sides, but Carlisle could use some more focus on their league campaign. The visitors come here fourth-bottom in the EFL, with pressure on them to avoid slipping into the National League. They’ve got a seven-point lead over 23rd as it stands, but that could disappear quite quickly with half the season to go.

TALKING POINT - Jordi Alba’s absence will add to Quique Setien injury headache Setien could have done without another injury to a key player, but now he has one with Alba withdrawn early in the first half with a right adductor injury. This surely means the left back will face a race against time to be fit for the Champions League last 16 tie against Napoli and the Clasico against Real Madrid at the start of next month.

In terms of our correct score tip, we can see a pretty comfortable look to the scoreline come the end of the 90 minutes. The hosts have been pretty free-scoring of late and they have scored three or more in three of their last four home matches. Although the visitors have their troubles, they should be able to take advantage of their hosts’ possible complacency to get at least one, so a 3-1 home win looks to be the way to go.
Basel, as mentioned above, are unbeaten in Group C heading into match number five of six and have picked up one win on the road against Getafe and a draw in Turkey against Trabzonspor so will be confident in adding to their points total on Thursday. When the pair met in September for the first game of the group Basel secured a comfortable 5-0 victory but we are expecting a much closer ninety minutes in Russia.

Highly paid football players are people who can carry the greatest burden and they should be the first ones to, with respect, sacrifice their salary, rather than the person selling the programme or the person who does catering or the person who probably doesn’t get anywhere near the salary some of the Premier League footballers get. It should be those with the broadest shoulders who go first because they can carry the greatest burden and have probably got savings, rather than those who work in catering or hospitality who have probably got no savings and live week by week and who probably won’t get the [government] benefits for five weeks.

What's the point in that? That doesn't level the playing field. City also had an extra day to prepare ahead of December's derby at the Etihad Stadium, although goals from Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial secured a 2-1 win for United.

Cincinnati had a losing start to the season, but gave a good account against New York RB. It is bound to be tougher against Atlanta United as Cincinnati travel for the second straight game. They have not been very strong in defence, as seen from their last three matches (including preseason friendly matches). They have however been scoring and we feel they will have enough to trouble the home side’s defence. Cincinnati have not had a good run in MLS and here we are predicting a 3-1 win for Atlanta United.
