Ravens vs Jaguars SNF Prop Bets: Lawrence Limited by Stingy Baltimore D

Marseille striker Ismaila Sarr starred as defending Africa Cup of Nations champions Senegal eased their way into the last 16 with a 3-1 win over Cameroon.

Sarr’s deflected strike gave his side a 16th-minute lead and it was he who set up fellow frontman Habib Diallo after the break before Sadio Mane cemented victory at Stade Charles Konan Banny in stoppage time to guarantee his side’s progression from Group C.

Cameroon responded belatedly when Jean-Charles Castelletto powered home a header from Olivier Ntcham’s 83rd-minute cross and Georges-Kevin Nkoudou has guilty of a glaring miss before Mane scored, but Rigobert Song’s men will head into Tuesday’s final group fixture against Gambia with just a single point to their name.

Barcelona head coach Xavi feels his side were denied a very clear penalty late on in their action-packed 2-2 draw with Manchester United.

The sides played out a thriller at Camp Nou on Thursday to leave their Europa League knockout play-off round tie in the balance heading into next week s return leg.

Marcos Alonso opened the scoring for Barca early in the second half, but United were in front nine minutes later through a Marcus Rashford strike and Jules Kounde s own goal.

Raphinha equalised for the hosts in rather fortuitous circumstances in the 76th minute, the winger s cross going right through without a touch, and Barca went all out for a winner.

A scramble in the box culminated in Casemiro hitting his own post, before Ansu Fati was brilliantly denied…

Brighton winger Simon Adingra described Ivory Coast’s Africa Cup of Nations triumph as “one of the most beautiful moments of my life”.

Hosts Ivory Coast produced a 2-1 comeback victory over Nigeria on Sunday to become African champions for the third time, with Adingra setting up both goals and being named player of the match.

“We did it together – we’re Africa champions and it’s incredible,” said Adingra.

“I’ve just experienced one of the most beautiful moments of my life and that’s down to the effort of everyone in the team.”

The hosts fell behind in the showpiece when Nigeria captain William Troost-Ekong headed in a 38th-minute opener against the run of play.

Sevilla travels to Alaves looking for the 2nd win in La Liga following a disappointing start that left the former Europa League winners in the bottom half of the table.

Alaves

After a previous season with excellent results that led to Alaves finishing 10th and avoiding the relegation threat, the hosts are targeting a Conference League position by the end of this term. Starting the pre-season preparations early, the hosts finalized their squad following 8 test games against other Spanish sides.

Chelsea midfielder Romeo Lavia will miss the rest of the season after suffering a setback in his recovery from a thigh injury.

The 20-year-old suffered the injury when making his Blues debut as a substitute against Crystal Palace in December.

Chelsea said in a statement on their website: “Midfielder Romeo Lavia is to unfortunately miss the remainder of our 2023-24 campaign following a setback in his recovery.

Having completed the signing of striker Ashley Fletcher from Middlesbrough, Watford are in talks to sign Danny Rose on a free transfer this summer, according to .

The Hornets have secured a return to the Premier League and are working on strengthening the squad. They were also in talks with Ashley Young over a one-year deal, but no agreement has been reached and that move now seems unlikely.

Having gone through the ranks at the Leeds United academy, Rose joined Tottenham Hotspur in 2007. Numerous loan spells followed (Watford, Peterborough, Bristol City, Sunderland), and he returned to Spurs to take his chance in 2013.

He was a big part of the side which reached the Champions League final under Mauricio Pochettino in 2019, but he fell out with Jose Mourinho who …

Departing Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp would vote to remove VAR in its current guise from the Premier League, though he also believes officiating standards are a problem.

On Wednesday, it was revealed that Wolves – who have been on the wrong end of several contentious decisions this season – had tabled a motion to abolish VAR from the top flight.

The club listed several negative consequences brought on by the technology s introduction, including an impact on in-stadium atmospheres, diminished accountability of match officials and its role in furthering completely nonsensical allegations of corruption from fans.

The role of VAR is now set to be discussed at an annual shareholders meeting on June 6, though Wolves motion is thought unlikely to garner the 14 vote…

Market: Azerbaijan win

Odds: 6/5 @

Meeting for a friendly showdown on Tuesday afternoon, Azerbaijan will welcome Kazakhstan to the Baku Olympic Stadium.

Starting with the hosts, eventually falling to a 3-1 loss away at Albania over the weekend, Azerbaijan will certainly be looking to claim an immediate response here. Although the Blues might have fallen well short of mounting any kind of EURO 24 qualifying charge last year, interim boss Arif Asadov has seen his squad suffering just a trio of defeats from any of their previous eight appearances across all competitions. Making a stunning statement during November’s international break as they stormed their way to a 3-0 romp against Sweden, Azerbaijan will be excited by their largely rugged success on home soil. …

Scotland head coach Steve Clarke was adamant his side should have been awarded a penalty as their Euro 2024 campaign ended with a 1-0 defeat to Hungary in Stuttgart.

Kevin Csoboth scored the winning goal in the 10th minute of injury-time to put Scotland out of another major tournament in the group stages.

However, things could have been much different for Clarke s side.

Stuart Armstrong looked to have skipped beyond Hungary s Willi Orban in the 80th minute, before the RB Leipzig defender grappled across the midfielder, with both tumbling inside the area.

Referee Facundo Tello waved away Scotland s appeals, and a subsequent check by VAR deemed the challenge not worthy of awarding a spot-kick.

“It was 100% a penalty, Clarke said. Somebody, som…
