Everton

Christian Nørgaard

A defensive midfielder who does the unglamorous work that lets everybody around him take risks, screening the back four, winning headers in his own box, and being wherever the loose ball lands. He was made captain at Brentford for exactly these reasons.

Christian Nørgaard, The Midfielder Nobody Notices

A holding midfielder whose contribution becomes obvious to everybody the moment he is missing from the side.

Nørgaard understands the geometry of the position better than almost anyone, standing in the exact spot that forces an opponent to pass sideways instead of forward. He is a serious presence in both penalty areas at set pieces, attacking the ball in the air with the timing of somebody who has done it for many years. The rest of his afternoon is spent tidying up second balls that nobody else has bothered to chase.

Everton tend to look far more organised with somebody willing to hold his position while everybody else runs, which is the job he has done throughout his career. The tension is that it only works if the players ahead of him actually use the freedom he creates. Sit too deep as a team and he becomes a spare man in front of a crowded defence.

Clean sheets in the Premier League and Championship

Five Premier League keepers have three clean sheets from five games, but Konstantinos Tzolakis has made the most saves of the group. In the Championship, George Wickens has matched Lawrence Vigouroux's four clean sheets while facing far more shots.

Eight Championship players are one yellow card from a ban

Eight Championship players are one yellow card away from a one-match ban. Card rates show who might be missing, and QPR should line up cover for Jake Clarke-Salter now.

Match Bingo Game Modes Explained

There are three game types on Match Bingo and they behave less alike than they sound. Live Games follow a real fixture as it's played. Bingoals swaps the fifteen events for fifteen teams and needs every one of them to score. Quick Games run every few minutes on football from last season, so there's nothing to wait for.

Does a New Signing Change Anything on Your Match Bingo Card?

Deadline day comes and goes and your card stays exactly as it was. Match Bingo cards are built from things that happen in a match, goals and corners and fouls, rather than from the players who make them happen. No name on a teamsheet reaches a single square. Here's what a signing does change, and what it doesn't.

Is Match Bingo Safe? Licensing, Fair Play and Player Protection

Two things usually sit behind that question: whether the company is real and regulated, and whether the game itself can be got at by somebody sharper than you. Match Bingo is operated by RTSB Limited under Gambling Commission account 51467, which takes about a minute to check. The second answer is duller: there's nothing to press.

What Is Football Bingo?

A card holds fifteen things that can happen in a football match, and each square marks itself the moment its event happens in the fixture you've chosen. You buy before kick-off, then you go and watch the game. Complete a horizontal row of five before anybody else and you take the fixed prize for that tier.
