  1. Leicester 'have got to get something'published at 18:41 Greenwich Mean Time 15 January

    Leicester v Crystal Palace (19:30 GMT)

    .

    Leicester enjoyed a big win in the FA Cup but they are on a run of five successive defeats in the league and it feels like they have got to get something from this game.

    It won't be easy for the Foxes. Crystal Palace have been much improved in the past few weeks and have built a bit of momentum after only losing one of their past nine league games.

    I definitely don't see the Eagles losing this and although it will be tight, they are the team who I think will find a way of winning it, probably through Jean-Philippe Mateta.

    Sutton's prediction: 1-2

    Fans have been keen to see the development of Osula under Eddie Howe, who has a track record of really honing player ability over a long period of time - assessing the natural skill and working on it.

    He does not throw players in if he does not think they are ready. Lewis Hall, for example, said he was not fit enough last season to play Howe's style of football - and now he's arguably England's best left-back.

    Osula's goal certainly showed a glimmer of what might be to come. It is very early to say, but it was a real showcase of skill. It wasn't a scuffle in front of goal, or a flukey pass. It was a beautiful, left-footed strike from just inside the box.

    Hopefully much more to come from this player for Newcastle.

    Chris Sutton

    David Moyes is back in charge of Everton and has a really tough job on his hands. In terms of firepower, he is armed with a water pistol.

    He has taken over a team which did not score enough goals under Sean Dyche. That was their biggest issue, and it is hard to see how Moyes can solve it with the same players that Dyche had.

    With Jordan Pickford, James Tarkowski and Jarrad Branthwaite, Everton have got players who can hold them together at the back, but Moyes' conundrum is to increase their attacking threat, and that is going to be a struggle, especially in these early days.

    Armando Broja is injured again so maybe Moyes can get a tune out of Dominic Calvert-Lewin, but that is something none of the the past few Everton managers have managed to do, and I have even seen him being linked with a move away.

    I have got Aston Villa's Emi Martinez in my Fantasy team, and I see him as the best goalkeeper in the Premier League, but they always seem to concede silly goals. So it is possible to get at Villa, I just don't see Everton managing it.

    I don't like talking about myself much but my last goal as a professional footballer was a clever header in a Villa win over a Moyes' Everton team at Goodison Park, and I am going for the same outcome here.

    Sutton's prediction: 0-2

    One player who won't be taking to the field at the King Power is Trevoh Chalobah after he was recalled from his loan at Crystal Palace by parent club Chelsea.

    The decision to recall Chalobah was made on Tuesday on the eve of Palace's match at Leicester in the Premier League, before a deadline to use the clause later this month.

    The scarf sellers outside Goodison Park are seemingly doing a roaring trade with their 'Return of David Moyes' merchandise as the Scot takes charge of Everton for his second spell tonight against Aston Villa.

    The 61-year-old told me on Monday that the Toffees were the only club job that could have enticed him back into management for, 12 years after leaving for that ill-fated 10 months at Manchester United.

    Moyes comes back to the Blues in a very different situation, just one point above the relegation zone and having scored only 15 league goals this season.

    "Needless to say, Everton Football Club means so much to me and my family and I am delighted to have been trusted with this position again," Moyes writes in his programme note.

    "The hope now is that we are seeing clearer blue skies in the distance - but there is plenty of hard work from us as players and staff to do to ensure we get there.

    "We all need to be onboard to build a more positive future and my belief we can have that is genuine."

    David Moyes has a lot more experience now, he’s won silverware with West Ham and that’s the inner confidence he’ll be bringing to the situation, ‘don’t worry, don’t panic, we’ve certainly got enough quality within the squad.’

    I am sure he’ll add to that squad in a couple of areas. But making sure everyone is aware that if you stick together as team you’ll be able to get the job done.’

    Since leaving the club, David Moyes has been on his own managerial rollercoaster. The lows of Manchester United, Real Sociedad and Sunderland and the highs of West Ham and winning their first trophy since 1980. It's certainly been an eventful career, post-Everton.

    Some may say it is a typical romantic appointment and nothing has changed, even under new ownership.

    It is a valid observation, but the appointment smacks of common sense.

    The general feeling within the fanbase appears to be one of satisfaction. There is a palpable sense of relief, despite some dissenting voices.

    The managerial appointment was never going to please everyone, but we all deal in the currency of wins.

    Every Evertonian can get on board with that.

  17. 'Arsenal really need boost... and must take chance to narrow gap at top'published at 18:11 Greenwich Mean Time 15 January

    Arsenal v Tottenham (20:00 GMT)

    Nedum Onuoha
    BBC Sport pundit

    Who is the north London derby bigger for? I would have to say Arsenal this time around.

    It has been a disappointing week for the Gunners, losing the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final to Newcastle and then being knocked out of the FA Cup by Manchester United on Sunday - both at home.

    The manner of those defeats, especially against a 10-man United, have not sat well with the fans.

    There has been chat around Mikel Arteta's management and whether he can win the Gunners silverware, and that is because, although their home record was strong, their performances have not been overly convincing in recent weeks.

    A derby win would not completely squash that conversation, but it could perhaps move it to the periphery.

    Gabriel Jesus is also the latest name added to the long-term injury list and given Bukayo Saka's absence it feels the club really need a boost, and a victory over Tottenham always provides that.

    Arsenal must take the chance to narrow the gap to Liverpool, who dropped points at Nottingham Forest on Tuesday.

    The title race is not over in January.

  18. How it looks in the Premier Leaguepublished at 18:09 Greenwich Mean Time 15 January

    Arsenal will look to return to second in the Premier League and up the pressure on Liverpool, who were held by high-flying Nottingham Forest yesterday.

    Newcastle can move into the top four with a win while at the other end a Leicester victory will move them out of the bottom three.

    'Moyes 2.0' is how the 61-year-old's return to the club was dubbed by BBC Radio Merseyside's Giulia Bould on Monday.

    Outside the ground, there is a timeline of significant events from the club's history, including the Scot's arrival as manager first time round in 2002.

    They'll need to put a new board up soon now that he's back at the club.
