Liverpool face two huge games this week as the fixtures start to pile up thick and fast. Arne Slot’s side welcome Real Madrid and Manchester City to Anfield in the Champions League and Premier League respectively, looking to continue what has been an excellent start to the season. Top of the pile in Europe and a stunning eight points clear of City ahead of their showdown on Sunday, things couldn’t be going much better for the Dutchman in the opening few months of his tenure. Sunday’s dramatic 3-2 win over Southampton underlined their fighting spirit to go along with their…
As the January transfer window nears, Liverpool’s focus may well be on keeping their current stars rather than adding to them in the New Year. There’s just over a month to go until the window opens, although that might not be too welcome on Merseyside with Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mohamed Salah’s futures still in doubt as their contracts wind down. The latter of those has raised fears of a potential exit with his most recent comments, and it won’t be long until all three can negotiate pre-contract agreements with foreign clubs. With Liverpool riding high in the…
Mohamed Salah has claimed he is yet to receive a formal offer from Liverpool, admitting he is “disappointed” not to have made a breakthrough with the club over a new contract. And the Reds star, who scored twice on Sunday to help Arne Slot’s team go eight points clear in the Premier League with a 3-2 win over Southampton, teased that he is now “more out than in” because of the ongoing impasse. Salah is edging close to the final six months of a deal signed in late June of 2022, which means he can speak to clubs outside of…
discounted either after beating Houston in NRG Stadium Sunday. A late-season run for the Texans won’t be easy with multiple playoff teams still in their path. Houston has the 10th-best odds to win the Super Bowl (+3,000) and the fourth-best odds to win the AFC Championship (+1,000) on FanDuel. The way the Texans have played recently doesn’t inspire confidence that they’ll make a deep postseason run, but Houston is still well positioned to make one if it can win against Kansas City and Baltimore in December. Not an easy task, but both teams have shown flaws in recent weeks.
The Houston Texans were looking for a pivotal AFC South win as they hosted the Tennessee Titans but unfortunately things did not go as planned as the Titans came into NRG Stadium and left with a 32-27 victory dropping the Texans to 7-5 on the year and making the race for the divisional crown just a bit closer. The Texans’ offense got off to a hot start, scoring the game’s first touchdown but things didn’t quite hold throughout the game as the offensive line struggled once again allowing quarterback C.J. Stroud to be sacked four times and not being able…
Losing to the Tennessee Titans was enough to have Houston Texans leaning over the edge of admitting defeat for 2024. Losing Jalen Pitre in the slot might be what pushes them past the point of no return. Pitre suffered a partial tear to his pectoral muscle and is now expected to be out “for a while,” according to Texans coach DeMeco Ryans. He was the x-factor for the defense up the middle and a reliable option in coverage because of his durability. Sitting at 7-5, the Texans must find a way to win on Sunday before the bye week. Several…
The Houston Texans have lost three of their last four games, including a 32-27 Week 12 loss to the then-2-8 Tennessee Titans. And while the Texans lost the game, it wasn’t their only loss of the day. According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, safety Jalen Pitre is expected to miss “multiple weeks” with a partial pectoral tear he sustained Sunday. Pelissero adds that surgery isn’t expected as of now, but there is also no exact timeline for Pitre’s return, either. However, there is a chance he plays again this season. The Texans can’t afford to lose Pitre on the…
HOUSTON – Now that hard-hitting Texans nickel Jalen Pitre is out indefinitely with a partial tear of his pectoral with a second opinion being sought on whether he’ll undergo surgery or attempt to play again this season, this injury to a key player changes the equation for a defense that relied heavily on his tackling skills. Pitre got hurt Sunday against the Tennessee Titans while tackling wide receiver Tyler Boyd and caught the brunt of a collision with teammate Henry To’oTo’o. It was initially diagnosed as a shoulder injury. A magnetic resonance imaging exam revealed the extent of the injury…
As the 2024 tennis season winds down, players are eagerly anticipating some well-deserved rest and training. The hectic tour has taken its toll on top-ranked athletes like Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Iga Swiatek, Jessica Pegula, and even the legend, Novak Djokovic. Despite their resilience in maintaining top-ten rankings, fatigue, and injuries have been constant for the players throughout the grueling schedule. It’s almost impossible to go on when your body is reaching its limit. During a recent press conference, ITF President David Haggerty addressed the performance of the Billie Jean King Cup and Davis Cup this season. He highlighted the…
Carlos Alcaraz has already confirmed one grass tournament for the 2025 season as the 21-year-old Spaniard has signed up to play at the cinch Championships, the event announced. For the world No. 3 – who made his debut at the Queen’s Club in 2023 – it will be his third consecutive appearance at the event. In 2022, the Spanish tennis star was scheduled to play at the prestigious grass tournament for the first time. But sadly, it didn’t happen because he was forced to withdraw from the tournament. However, Alcaraz was able to compete at Queen’s in 2023. And it…
