Titans vs Vikings Preseason Picks and Predictions: Hot Start for Minnesota Leads to Early Triumph

The Tennessee Titans and Minnesota Vikings will kick off their second preseason game of 2023 on Saturday night at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

The Titans tried to get some more clarity on their backup quarterback situation last week and didn’t exactly succeed in doing so. Meanwhile, the Vikings got off to a hot start last week before getting dominated in the second half by Seattle.

I break it all down and give my best NFL picks and predictions for the Titans vs. Vikings below.

‘Valued and trusted’: Canberra United’s homecoming spirit pays dividends

Nicki Flannery is on the substitutes bench with her head in her hands. It is the 34th minute of Canberra United’s match against Adelaide United in the 2018-19 W-League season. Former Canberra striker Michelle Heyman is kitted out in red and yellow, facing the club she had represented for almost 10 years. The narrative of betrayal quickly unfolds as Heyman crosses for teammate Veronica Latsko to score the opening goal.

Just after the half-hour, Flannery sends a shot high and wide of the far post. It hasn’t been the young winger’s best match, but it is still early and she needs to find her rhythm. A minute later, her jersey number flashes up in red on the substitution board. She bursts into tears before she reaches the bench.

‘I’m well again’: Emma Hayes on hidden trauma, ADHD and Chelsea upheaval

Emma Hayes is serene in a small bungalow in Cobham as, amid the uncertainty, one era sweeps into another at Chelsea’s heavily monitored training ground. Two weeks ago, a short walk from here, Thomas Tuchel was sacked by Chelsea’s owners the morning after his 100th game at the club. Hayes had just passed 10 years in charge of Chelsea Women, in a reign made remarkable by five Women’s Super League titles, four FA Cups and two League Cups.

The second half of her career at Chelsea coincided with the arrival of her son, Harry, born only half an hour before Hayes gave birth to his twin brother, Albie, who had died inside her after 28 weeks. Now it feels as if she has been released from four years of hidden trauma.

No joys of spring for faltering Arsenal

Arsenal’s form in April looks like costing them dearly again this season after they exited the Champions League and fell behind in the title race.

After costly defeats to Aston Villa and Bayern Munich, the PA news agency looks at the Gunners’ recurring failings at this time of year.

Same old story

Manager Mikel Arteta backed his side to “write our story very differently” against Bayern and had previously called on them to recreate the aura of the 2003-04 “Invincibles”, who won the league without losing a game.

They may instead be following the pattern of Arsenal teams since then who have narrowly missed out on success, particularly last season when they began April eight points clear.

They maintained that margin by beating Leeds on April 1 bu…

LaLiga 2018-19: Coutinho ready to be Barca´s next Brazilian superstar

Two of football s most iconic jerseys often go hand in hand for football romantics.

Over recent decades, those who dazzle brightest in Brazil s effervescent yellow and green have tended to try their luck in Barcelona s blue and red.

Stars of the Selecao have slipped seamlessly into the role of Blaugrana darlings since the master marksman Romario embellished the end of a golden era for Johan Cruyff s Dream Team.

The taste for a Brazilian number nine in Catalonia was whetted further by Ronaldo s fleeting and destructive brilliance at Camp Nou. The powerhouse forward scored 47 goals in a single season for Bobby Robson s Barca.

It became a tale of the 10s, with Rivaldo illuminating some relatively dark hours for the club around the turn of the century, before…

06-03-2010 Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Manchester United

Mick McCarthy s Wolves take on the might of Manchesater United at just the wrong itme as the title race hots up.

Mick McCarthy will be quite happy with his seasons work so far, although Wolves are obviously far from safe. At the beginning of the season they were many people s candidates for the drop but so far they have bucked that trend, despite a poor start to the season. Despite only being clear of the relegation zone by goal difference alone they can be encouranged that the highly unpredictable Wigan Athletic sit just a point above them, and below them lie Hull City and Burnley, two teams unlikely to pick up too many points between now and the end of the season. Obviously Wolves have a mountain to climb on saturday but they will have confidence that their fans will make Mol…
