Leicester City incredibly threw away a three-goal half-time lead to lose 4-3 to Southampton on Tuesday and see their winless run extended to six Championship matches. With a six-point deduction confirmed last week, too, this miserable stretch has left Leicester in serious danger of suffering back-to-back relegations. It had looked as though the Foxes, led by interim boss and club legend Andy King, would move clear of the bottom three when they raced ahead at the King Power Stadium. Divine Mukasa and Patson Daka were on target inside the opening 13 minutes, and it was 3-0 before the half-hour mark as Abdul Fatawu got in on the act with a blockbuster strike.

"It's a crazy start ... hopefully I can keep it going,"

Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe is under a lot of pressure after a disappointing run of form, and he could be shown the door at the end of the season. Even though he helped Newcastle end their prolonged wait for a trophy, he has not delivered this season. Newcastle are currently 12th in the league table and hope to do much better.

The player will be out of contract at the end of the season, and the Eagles are hoping to sign him on a bargain. It is no secret that they need a quality central defender, especially after Marc Guehi's departure. Senesi has proven himself in the Premier League with consistent performances, and there is no doubt that he would be an asset for the Eagles. Signing a layer of his quality and experience for free would be a masterstroke.

Not yet, but he is a fantastic player. Hopefully he can help us by increasing his qualities in our structure like he is doing. He will need another contract, and maybe it could be here. If he plays his best football, we will want him. But also other teams could be involved in the interest for him.

Chelsea welcome Leeds United to Stamford Bridge hoping to avenge a 3-1 loss at Elland Road back in December. The Blues have won four successive Premier League games under Liam Rosenior and will be expected to make it five in a row despite coming unstuck in the reverse fixture at Elland Road. Leeds are coming off a 3-1 win over Nottingham Forest last time out, and could move nine points clear of the relegation zone by completing an unexpected double over Chelsea.

Every Premier League game from Matchweek 26 will be shown live on TNT Sports in the UK. Chelsea vs Leeds be shown live on TNT Sports 4 and can be streamed by subscribers to the Discovery+ platform.

Aston Villa are likely to line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation against Newcastle United. Emiliano Martinez will be in goal for the Villans. Matty Cash, Ezri Konsa, Tyrone Mings and Lucas Digne will be the two defenders. Amadou Onana and Douglas Luiz will be the two holding midfielders. Jadon Sancho, Morgan Rogers and Emiliano Buendia will be deployed in attacking midfield. Ollie Watkins will lead the line for Villa.

Bournemouth forward Junior Kroupi is attracting attention from some of Europe's elite clubs, while Manchester City angle for a move for England international Elliot Anderson. Join us for the latest transfer news and rumors from around the globe. Transfers home page | Men's winter grades | Women's grades TRENDING RUMORS - Real Madrid, Liverpool, and Chelsea are among the clubs tracking Bournemouth forward Junior Kroupi, according to The Sun. It is reported that Bournemouth are braced for offers for the 19-year-old in the summer, and that a deal of around £80 million could see Kroupi move on.

According to Spanish outlet Fichajes, both Liverpool and Tottenham have placed the Marseille forward firmly on their radar and would be prepared to meet a substantial asking price to secure his signature. The report claims offers in the region of 78 million (90m) could be considered, a figure that shows just how highly Greenwood is now rated after two prolific seasons in Ligue 1.

First-half goals from Tommy Conway and Riley McGree were enough to get Kim Hellberg's side over the line, and above Coventry City, as a late red card for Joe Rothwell eased the pressure following Patrick Bamford's goal in the 73rd minute. It was an end-to-end first half as both teams combined for 23 shots before the break, 15 to eight in favour of Boro, with Conway firing over in the sixth minute before Morgan Whittaker headed straight at Michael Cooper for the visitors.

I'll probably end up looking silly, but I quite fancy Palace here. Brighton lack a reliable scorer though Katsoulas' brilliant goal against Bournemouth tells us he knows where the goal is and I think Palace have the speed of foot and of pass to cause them problems.

In Saturday's game against Millwall Cleworth became the leading appearance-maker of Phil Parkinson's reign, surpassing Paul Mullin's 172 games under the English boss. Cleworth, still only 23, is Wrexham's final on-field survivor of the National League days, though Davis Keillor-Dunn and Ryan Barnett, who has played 12 times in the league this season, have recently returned. Since his debut while a 17-year-old academy player in the Scottish Challenge Cup in 2019, the Chester-born defender has made 175 appearances in red.

Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing the Belgian attacker Mika Godts. The 20-year-old is highly rated across Europe and is also a target for Barcelona. The player has 10 goals and 9 assists for Ajax this season and has attracted the attention of top teams. According to a report from Vietbal International (h/t TEAMtalk), Arsenal have made an enquiry for the 20-year-old attacker.

Atletico Madrid's 2021 Round of 16 tie against Chelsea saw them host their fixture in Bucharest, while the Blues still got to host their tie at Stamford Bridge. Arsenal relocated to Wembley in 1999 for two campaigns, as Highbury was deemed two small; Tottenham also played at Wembley while their ground was being developed, while Barcelona played at Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys while Camp Nou was being renovated.

Coventry City missed the chance to pull clear at the top of the Championship after playing out a frustrating 0-0 draw with struggling Oxford United on Saturday. With second-placed Middlesbrough not in action until Monday, Frank Lampard's side were unable to take advantage despite Will Lankshear's 77nd-minute sending off. Haji Wright tested Jamie Cumming early on before the visiting goalkeeper produced a brilliant save to deny Tatsuhiro Sakamoto's fizzing drive from just outside the penalty area.

Manchester City are open to selling Nathan Ake in the summer of 2026, according to SportsBoom . The Premier League club are said to want £25-£30 million for Ake. Ake has been at Man City since 2020. The 30-year-old, who can play as a centre-back and as a left-back, cost the Cityzens £41 million when they secured his services from Bournemouth. The Netherlands international has scored 10 goals and provided three assists in 167 matches in all competitions for Man City so far in his career.
