News and discussion as we build up to the day’s actionPremier League things | Get in touchParis Saint-Germain head to Monaco in Ligue 1 today and the hosts’ confidence has been low. The lack of confidence within Sébastien Pocognoli’s side was clear on Wednesday, when Monaco drew 2-2 with Pafos in the Champions League, twice letting the lead slip.The eight-time French champions have won only one of its past five matches across all competitions, with Pocognoli saying he is still struggling to find the right formula since replacing Adi Hütter in October.We have too many variations in character and it’s up to me to bring that under control. I’ve been working on it for a month. I’m trying to understand [the team], push it and stimulate it, it’s something that takes time.Vitinha is growing and the team also. He’s so special, so different.

Wiegman has had to rejig defence and captaincy for a Wembley friendly with China that should pose new challenges for LionessesWhen England welcome China to a sold-out Wembley Stadium on Saturday afternoon, it will mark the sixth meeting between two nations who have been on different trajectories in recent years. The marketing has focused on the clash of continental champions – England as the holders of the European Championship and China as the winners of the 2022 Asian Cup – but there has since been a change in fortunes between the two.The widening gap was evident the last time they met, at the 2023 Women’s World Cup, when England put six past the Steel Roses to progress to the last 16. It caught the eye not only because of the score but because of a bold tactical change from Sarina Wiegman – a switch from 4-3-3 to 3-5-2 – to deal with the absence of Keira Walsh.
