Marseille come into this game on the back of a 1-1 draw against Lille last Monday at the Stade Velodrome. Brazilian forward Luiz Araujo scored the goal for Lille, with former AS Monaco striker Valere Germain scoring a late equaliser for Marseille. Metz, on the other hand, beat Stade de Reims 2-1 last Sunday at the Stade Municipal Saint-Symphorien.

The wild support for Mariota at No. 1 has waned after Oregon’s loss to Ohio State in the CFP National Championship game, but he remains one of the safest quarterback choices in this draft and could blossom into one of the league’s best QBs. Even if teams have concerns about certain areas of his development, they’d be foolish to pass on him. MORE: Mariota turns pro | Jameis Winston scouting report | Mock Draft | Underclassmen tracker...

The hope is rooted in the conviction that evidence will come out showing the election was fraudulent and while Greene believes Trump won the 2020 election, she doesn’t see him being reinstated. “I would hate for anyone to get their hopes up thinking that President Trump is going to be back in the White House in August because that’s not true and I’m telling you that as a member of Congress, that’s a very difficult thing to do,” Greene told Steve Bannon on his podcast on Wednesday....

I think we should be caring about our country. Of course, no one supports what happens there, everybody feels sorry for the Ukrainian people and all that, but you know what, our country matters, so to me, I’m not concerned at all about Ukraine....

“We are a different team in the way we approach the game,” said Hughes. “I think Arsenal have got twice as many bookings as us, in any case.” The former Manchester United striker is keen to end Arsenal’s good form this season but is happy that midfielder Aaron Ramsey has found his form.
