The Reds were defeated 2-0 away from home against the same opposition earlier in the campaign so will be looking to perform rather better this time around—though they haven’t beaten the Gunners since August 2011, under Kenny Dalglish. With a two-point cushion at present between themselves and fifth-placed Everton, Liverpool will have to be at their best and hope results elsewhere fall their way to try and maintain that safety buffer inside the top four....

Conte got off to a mixed start in England as Chelsea followed three straight wins with a draw and two losses in their first six Premier League matches under the Italian.

Sunday night’s 42-24 loss to the Redskins dropped the Packers’ record to 4-6, giving Green Bay little, if any, margin for error in its quest for an eighth straight playoff appearance. Packers coach Mike McCarthy put it succinctly after his team’s latest embarrassment: “We understand clearly what’s in front of us, so six losses puts your ass against the wall. And that’s where we are.” This is the first time since 1953 the Packers have allowed 30-plus to be scored on them in four straight games....

Instead, Aaron Rodgers and Eli Manning tried to one-up one another in their comedy of errors. When the dust settled, it was Manning’s New York Giants who were far worse, and the Green Bay Packers came away with the ugly 23-16 victory at Lambeau Field.

Maybin injured his arm on a diving catch in center field in the Padres' spring training game against the Dodgers on Sunday. He walked and hit a two-run home run prior to sustaining the injury. The 26-year-old missed the majority of the 2013 season as he battled wrist inflammation early in the season and then tore a posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee in June.

The result of almost three decades of hostility, exacerbated by Iran’s nuclear ambitions and its agitation in places like Iraq, Lebanon, Palestine and Afghanistan is that conflict in the region seems possible once more. Should war break out, those likely to suffer most will be the people of Iran, who have long borne the brunt of their government’s policies, which have isolated, brutalized and impoverished them. Although the regime boasts of having held numerous elections, not one has been fair or free, with people’s candidates able to avoid endless obstructions....

But that team was no mug when it came to the away tours. For India to be compared to that side, they will have to win around the world. But is it that easy? No, of course not. In recent times, we’ve seen that home advantage, or the tendency for the home team to win, has grown immensely.
