SOCCER - PL

Manchester United can move into third place in the Premier League if they can beat Southampton at Old Trafford tonight.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side are unbeaten in their last 17 games and a win will see them climb above Leicester and Chelsea in the race for Champions League qualification.

Kick-off at Old Trafford is at 8pm.

Leicester's chances of finishing in the top four suffered a blow yesterday after they lost 4-1 to relegation-threatened Bournemouth.

The win for Bournemouth sees them move to within three points of Watford in their bid to beat the drop.

Elsewhere, Aston Villa boosted their chances of Premier League survival with a 2-0 win against Crystal Palace.

Tottenham beat Arsenal 2-1 in the North London derby, and Wolves were comfortable 3-0 winners against Everton.

Manchester City will discover the outcome of their appeal against a two-year ban from European club competitions this morning.

The decision is set to be be published on the CAS website at 9.30am.

CHAMPIONSHIP

Leeds have a three point advantage at the top of the Championship this morning.

Graeme McDowell was the best of the Irish in Ohio on five-under.
