In a clash between two sides who are out of form and displaying a severe lack of confidence, it appears as though goals may be at a premium. The hosts have lost five of their last six league matches and are not exactly among the top scorers in the division. Meanwhile, their hosts frequently fail to score, are in no sort of form at all and are without a goal in their last four league matches. The choice seems easy in this one, and backing there to be less than 2.5 goals scored appears to be the way to go.
Foden set for England call-up after Wembley performance Phil Foden is in line to receive his first England call-up to the senior side for the Three Lions' friendly matches taking place at Wembley later this month. The 19-year-old has only made 10 starts for Manchester City in all competitions so far this season, but the youngster shone in Sunday's Carabao Cup final win against Aston Villa in the capital.
They are not afraid to have a defensive approach. It is easier for them against better teams, against teams who want more of the ball," he added. The Portuguese, sacked by United after two and a half seasons in charge, had plenty of praise for his former forward Rashford. When he plays from the left he is really dangerous and I knew that and gave the players the best information about it.
That's one of my frustrations and this has really brought it to the boil. Soon after the publication of the dossier, the SPFL said it contained "not one single shred of evidence to support Rangers' vociferous claims of corruption, bullying and coercion by SPFL staff". Robertson insisted that Rangers "never" made any of those claims "anywhere". It's a complete deflection away from the point we should be discussing, which is the failings of the executive in the build-up to this vote," he said.

As a side relegated from the top division at the end of last season, Girona would've approached this campaign with an eye on promotion, though as things stand, they're not quite on course to achieve that goal. Fortunately, Thursday's hosts are within touching distance of the play-off places, as they're only two points behind Las Palmas, who current occupy 6th position.

And that was as good as it got on the night for the Spurs fans. What followed was a disjointed and disappointing display that leaves RB Leipzig in control of the Champions League last-16 tie going into the second leg. Jose Mourinho responded with a series of headline-grabbing excuses: his key players are missing; too many players are struggling for fitness; the fixture-list is working against Spurs; and “it’s like going to fight with a gun without bullets”.
Weddings and Caribbean holidays, Jurgen Klopp certainly isn't alone in missing matches. Immediately after Liverpool's 2-2 FA Cup draw at Shrewsbury Town, the German said he would not be on the touchline for the replay at Anfield nine days later. Why? Because he wants to respect the inaugural winter break that the Premier League has introduced this season. It got us thinking about the other occasions managers have missed games.

Not playing the 'Spanish way' The top four teams in Spain qualify for the Champions League. Getafe's best ever finish is fifth, achieved last season under BordalasGetafe rank joint 14th in terms of average shots per game in La Liga (10. But their real strength comes from being a tremendous unit who depend more on the collective than any one star. They have conceded just 20 goals all season. Only Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao have let in fewer.
In the season, they have managed 10 wins but seven of those have come at the Emirates and they have failed to score in just one of their home league matches – the 3-0 loss to Manchester City. Defensively, Arsenal are still shaky though; they were troubled time and again by Sheffield, especially with set-pieces.
Like Walsall, Leyton Orient are also having defensive issues but pack a punch themselves; with 6 of their last 7 games having ended with goals at either end. With just 1 win in 10 league matches, despite having lost just 1 of their last 5, Orient come into Wednesday's game under a degree of pressure and will undoubtedly come out in an aggressive manner and targeting 3 points.
Even doing so behind closed doors was the wrong decision. A player has a personal life too, he can get infected off the pitch and take it onto it. I guess the issue was not taken seriously enough. I am sure if a Serie A player had been found positive at that time, they would have stopped immediately. The only thing that counts is to fight this virus together, being responsible and staying at home. Hopefully we can start playing again soon, but that is secondary and also quite difficult to imagine now.

Eight of the first-team squad came through Pirin's academy, whose graduates include Berbatov, one of the country's most famous players who was soon snapped up by CSKA, before signing for Bayer Leverkusen in Germany. In the past, the academy was known for its reputation as the best in Bulgaria. And, since Dubai-based Emirates Wealth acquired the club, Pirin have appointed a new head of academy and youth development, bought a building which will become a strength and conditioning facility, and have land to build five football pitches.

Match that should end in a draw at home Tenerife is very strong to lost only one game throughout the season and faces Almeria de Guti who has also lost a lot I was respect at the beginning of the season even stopped the Portuguese coach Emmanuel replacing him with the Real Madrid coach so I think that this time they will take it for good Guti with Almeria has only won a game at home but I think that away from home he will have many problems and the tie at a share of 320 has a lot value

Helmond Sport against Jong PSV here, another meeting of the Dutch football Eerste Divisie which is played tomorrow night at 8:00 pm. Helmond slightly favored for the victory of the match comes from a 1-1 home draw against Jong Ajax while guests are coming from a 1-3 home defeat against NAC Breda. The Helmond will have the field from his here and considering also that he is in front of a team more or less at his same level I think he has a good chance of getting at least one point here. Let's try a draw here and Good Luck
For six matches of the group stage of the Europa League “Ludogorets” scored ten goals and conceded as many goals. The team from Bulgaria held very controversial matches, somewhere playing back from defense, and somewhere, on the contrary, playing aggressive football.

The game at the Stadio Ennio Tardini was set to be the first closed-doors match to be played since the Italian government ordered that all games are played in empty stadiums until April 3 in a bid to control the spread of the disease.

In the Swiss championship, both leaders Young Boys and Basel will meet with the middle peers of the championship but away. I want to dwell on the meeting between Lucerne and Basel. Basel is a favorite and I completely agree with that. Basel is in a great mood for this match. The team had a great match LE. In a difficult group with Krasnodar, Trabzonspor and Getafe, they took first place and thus secured an advantage when choosing an opponent in PO. Moreover, Lucerne has a decent decline in the game. The team in the championship last 6 matches in a row. At the same time, three home meetings and three away matches were evenly distributed. At the moment, Lucerne is in third place from below. And most likely, with 15 points scored, the team will face a tough struggle to maintain residence in the elite division. Probably the team is affected by a huge number of injured players. Today, for Basel, who has gained a decent move, at the moment this is not an opponent who can provide decent resistance. Moreover, this is the last meeting before the break. And here it’s worth putting an excellent exclamation mark in order to get a rating of 5 for the autumn period.
Under those circumstances, it is difficult to see the PFA being happy at games being played while there is the slightest chance of anyone at them being infected. Is it definite the season will be finished?West Ham managing director Karren Brady was derided for saying the season should be declared "null and void" in her newspaper column, with most believing it was blatant opportunism on behalf of a club perilously close to the relegation zone.

This inspired us to take a trip down memory lane and remind ourselves of other times when players went back to haunt their former clubs. Emmanuel Adebayor Adebayor scored in his first four games for Manchester City, including against former club ArsenalOld but gold, and probably one of the most infamous goal celebrations in Premier League history.
He has the predatory skills to rival Ruud van Nistelrooy, with something of the finesse of Thierry Henry," reported the Guardian. I can't believe that was 17 years ago," Romanian Mutu told BBC Sport. In my first year at Chelsea I worked with Claudio Ranieri, a great coach, who wanted me in the squad. Without those personal problems, things would have been different…"On 12 July 2004, less than a year after that explosive start and a little over a month since Jose Mourinho had arrived to replace Ranieri, Mutu found himself subject to a doping test.

Solskjaer has come under increased pressure after back-to-back Premier League defeats by Liverpool and Burnley left them six points behind Chelsea, who occupy the fourth Champions League qualification spot. Ahead of United's FA Cup fourth round match against Tranmere Rovers on Sunday, Solskjaer said there would be no "quick fix" to improve their form.
I was really pleased for Kepa," Lampard said. It's not easy because all players want to play and a goalkeeper gets scrutinised more than any other position and he made some good saves. He's shown good character and he played well. Liverpool's third defeat in four games, following Saturday's shock 3-0 loss at Watford that ended their 44-game unbeaten run in the Premier League, can hardly be described as a mini-crisis.
His idea was probably that Neymar could come back to Barcelona and take over as leader when he says his goodbyes perhaps two, three or four years down the line. Messi would love to have him back at the club and I'm sure a real effort will be made this summer to make it happen, not just because Messi would like him there but also because it is what is needed. Neymar and Messi get on very well together on and off the pitch and they are still in touch with each other on a regular basis, including keeping a WhatsApp group with Suarez.
And if people are home for another month and there is a Premier League football game on the TV every day, that can only be a good thing. Not because we are more essential than the NHS, but because we can add something to the country to give people some entertainment and show we are fighting back and the country will survive this.
