Amazing fightback from Reading's twin town club. They have been truly awful all season (incl a 7-1 defeat at Frankfurt that I happened to be at). Bayern continue to struggle, will be a major turnaround if they get anywhere near the title this year. Is Dortmund's to lose but Frankfurt are on an incredible run having taken 19 of the past 21 available points, so can't be discounted nor can Mönchengladbach.

Sevilla have the lowest points total of any league leader in the top 5 leagues after 13 games since 2001/02

Feyenoord Vs PSV on Sunday.

PSV have won every league game so far this season, and would usually be miles in front of 2nd place if it wasn't for Ajax also having a freakish season having only dropped 5 points so far.

Sorry. I take it back.

I guess it will be interesting to see how Qatar deals with a big game and what the atmosphere will be like ahead of the World Cup.

Allows Palacios to get used to his soon to be new surroundings I suppose.
