Brothers in arms: Just like the game between Alaves and Osasuna yesterday, Valladolid is hosting today Oviedo in a game where friendship and socialisation seem to be more important than the final result.
The lunchtime derby: Caglari is hosting Cezena in the derby game of the top. Both teams are going to have a lot of players absence mainly due to the games of the national team yesterday and the coming Tuesday.
Sheringham’s last game?: Stevenage’s away game against Exeter may be the last game of its head coach, Teddy Sheringham, on the bench since the team is holding the 22nd position on the table (out of a total of 24 teams), after 2 wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats in 11 games.
Their first game: Panachaiki and Panserraikos have finally gotten the license to play in the Greek Football League and today they have their first game for the new season, against Anagennisi Karditsas away from home and Agrotikos Asteras at home, respectively.
One more for Plymouth: Plymouth is coming from an undefeated run in its last 6 games (4 wins and 2 draws) and aims to extent this for one more game, against Notts County away from home.
Finland is out: Finland cannot reach more than the 4th position of the table and N. Ireland needs 1 point in order to occupy the top of the group. It is worth mentioning that in the 5 games between the 2 teams, the home team ended up getting the 3 points in all of them.
Both teams to celebrate: Faroe Islands is hosting Romania and both teams have a reason to celebrate; the former, for its best so far presence in a Euro/World Cup qualification group and the latter for making it into the finals of the Euro 2016 competition.
A historic game: Albania is playing against Armenia away from home and if it gets the 3 points from the game it will manage a historic, first time ever, qualification into the finals of either a Euro or a World Cup competition.
Decisive: The game between Poland and the Rep of Ireland is decisive for both teams; both teams have so far gotten 18 points from their 9 games in the group and the guests will qualify directly into the finals of the Euro 2016 competition if they win the game or if they get a 2-2 draw (or any draw with more goals scored).
