Vikingur will host NSI Runavik for this fixture of the league. Both teams have the motivation to get a positive result. I expect, this will be tense match. Also, I believe, NSI Runavik are more ambitious team in this league. The visitors have a great results at the start of the new campaign. They have two consecutive victories. In any case, they have the motivation to continue the winning track. Vikingur is also ambitious team in this league. Hosts will try to provide a strong resistance. However, NSI Runavik is better team lately. I think, the visitors will try to pick up the victory on the opposite stadium.

We hope Scotty will be back as soon as possible," Solskjaer added. Maybe Villa, maybe Spurs, hopefully for Sunday. The beauty we have with Paul is that he can play in so many roles. He can play in a [midfield] two, he can play in a three and he can play as a No. Jesse [Lingard] is also coming back to his best.
Without question, it is money orientated, but surely this would not be attractive to our clubs in the Premier League, which at the moment is the best domestic league in world football and is well supported financially by Sky, BT and now Amazon," Ferguson told the BBC. Furthermore, the attraction of playing in the Champions League is huge for players, coaches and fans alike, as it remains the ultimate test in club football.

Yet Hourihane scores vital goals for club and country, and adds a crucial element of aggression too. His first goal for Ireland - a fabulous free kick - took the pressure off Mick McCarthy in March 2019 as they pushed for Euro 2020 qualification. He’s scored more than one tremendous set piece for Aston Villa, too, and netted ten times in their Championship promotion season last year.
If you can say one thing about Reims it's that they're hard to beat. David Guion's men have lost just one of their last twelve matches in all competitions with six wins and five draws in that time. Much of their success has come down to their rock solid defence which has kept six clean sheets in their last dozen games and is level with PSG for the least goals conceded in the league. They rank third last for goals scored which could hold them back but they do a good job of not letting that restrict them as they have won three of their last four games.
Arsenal have a potent striker in Aubameyang and there is a tempo and focus about their play that certainly has Arteta's stamp - he will still feel the pain of those lost points so late on. Satisfaction for RodgersLeicester may have slipped a place after occupying the top three for most of this season, but manager Brendan Rodgers will feel a measure of satisfaction after his side fought back to earn a point.
Listen to Game of Opinions on your platform of choice But would any of these proposals work? Why is there such a desire to get into next season before finishing this one? Is a bumper summer of football, a brilliant suggestion on paper, really feasible? Video - Could isolation camps help finish Premier League season?05:41 Eurosport's Ben Snowball and Tom Adams were joined by Carrie Dunn and Daniel Harris to dismantle the above views on Game of Opinions, a new football podcast to help you get through 2020.
They would also allow supporters to have to directors on the board of teams. They said: “Labour will put fans at the heart of football by giving them a far greater say over the way their clubs are run. We will provide them a say over who their manager is, allow safe standing, and make sure all stadiums are fully accessible.
Unfortunately that drug was not effective - no difference with placebo," says Dr Antonio Belli, the neurologist who oversaw Curtis's recovery. Rory would have done so well thanks to his genes and fitness, probably. Although it was remarkable that Curtis was able to return to football at all, he still had high expectations of himself and struggled to reconcile with the fact his first touch was no longer immaculate, and that his pace, his other primary asset, had slowed half a stride.
The African Player of the Year looks lean and mean and the one player who could carry the Merseyside club through these next few title-securing games that are clearly weighing heavily on their minds. Did you know? Mane has had a hand in six goals in his last four Premier League starts against Bournemouth (four goals, two assists). Now it's your turn You've seen my selections this week. But who would you go for? Pick your Team of the WeekPick your XI from our list and share with your friends.
Bundesliga 2. Team Erzgebirge Aue will host team Karlsruher SC. Hosts are in the middle zone. But guests are in the bottom zone. My bet will be on guests with AH +0.25. Karlsruher SC has a higher motivation to win here. They are near dangerous zone in the table. And every point is important for them. The second reason is a holiday . Guests ( their club ) have a birthday on this week. And some points are very good present for their fans. I recommend to try this bet with me. It is very good option to try this bet in real .
In the letter, Masters also writes to Rodney Dixon QC to say that although he "remains extremely sympathetic to your client's position" a requested meeting is "not possible, particularly in light of correspondence appearing in the media". Checks under the league's owners' and directors' test have been going on for more than six weeks. In a statement to BBC Sport, Cengiz said: "I'm cautiously optimistic the Premier League will make the right decision.
Mina latched on to a classy through ball from former Barcelona midfielder Denis Suarez and produced a clinical low finish to equalise in the 85th minute. Celta took an early lead through Russian striker Fedor Smolov but Real responded through Toni Kroos in the 52nd minute before captain Sergio Ramos put Zidane's side in front in the 65th from the penalty spot.
Vitesse and Heerenveen will face each other in the upcoming match in the Eredivisie. Vitesse this season have the following results: 10W, 5D and 7L. Meanwhile Heerenveen have 7W, 8D and 7L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
The departing directors had criticised the club's handling of a social media scandal and expressed doubts about the board's ability to handle the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has led to a 70% players' pay cut. Barcelona said the board had approved the appointments of Jordi Moix as vice president for economic and equity, Pau Vilanova as institutional vice president, Oriol Tomas as vice president of the commercial area, Marta Plana as board secretary, and David Bellver as treasurer.
Chelsea now have a precious four-point gap to fifth, the pressure has been released and the world looks a far better place. Not so for Mourinho, defiant afterwards but attempting to erect a shield around his team's shortcomings. Mourinho is now in full "what can I/we do?" mode after Son Heung-min joined Harry Kane and Moussa Sissoko as long-term injury absentees.
At the end of the season, we will see where we are because maybe we are sixth or seventh and then it doesn't matter if fifth goes to the Champions League. It was a milestone occasion for Tottenham forward Son Heung-min on Sunday, as he became the first Asian player to reach 50 Premier League goals. The South Korean's 50th and 51st goals came in a hard-fought 3-2 win over Aston Villa, his 151st outing in the competition.
Premier League clubs should be able sustain the drop in match-day revenue the but impact will be felt at the bottom end," said football finance expert Rob Wilson of Sheffield Hallam University. For those clubs, 20% of which are very hand-to-mouth, playing behind closed-doors would be really damaging".
I think Mesut Ozil will stay at Arsenal longer than Unai Emery. Both of their contracts end next summer but it is the manager who is struggling most. And why Ozil hasn't been playing against teams who play a low block (sit deep) is baffling, especially with the money he is on - he's the highest-paid player in the club's history on about £350,000 a week and has made just three Premier League starts this season.
It is on nights like this that those chickens come home to roost. Arsenal exposed them ruthlessly and brilliantly thanks to the expertise of Aubameyang and the sort of fierce discipline and determination that many regard as alien to them. City's goalkeeper Ederson is truly outstanding and Aymeric Laporte is a world-class defender in the making. And then the problems start. Defeat for Manchester City was their first in a domestic cup competition since February 2018Guardiola entrusted central defensive duties here to Laporte and 19-year-old rookie Eric Garcia, hardly a vote of confidence in England's John Stones, whose star is on the wane, while it has been obvious for some time Nicolas Otamendi is no longer fit for purpose.
I don't think we will have it (the backroom team) all together just now, it might be the summertime before I get my staff together. Moyes confirmed he has failed to bring Stuart Pearce, who was on his coaching team during his previous spell at the London Stadium, back to the club. Stuart Pearce did a great job here with me and I was pleased to have him.
However, things could be better but for inconsistency. Bristol City have won two of their last three, but they've only one won two of their last five and have only won back-to-back games twice this season.
In this match I think it is pretty realistic to say we are going to see goals on both sides because brescia is in relegation zone and the need to attack the team which is in so bad shape as Cagliari is and I surely expect from them to score but on the other hand brescia defense is so bad that it is very hard to expect from them to keep the clean score heat and I don't think 1 1 is going to be correct score of this one so I decided to go with over 2.5 and I surely recommend it to anyone
I'd have done the same. I was trying to concentrate on anything except taking the pen. It didn't work, but I still scored. After that you could feel Celtic were lacking in confidence. We were in control. I had to be sick over the advertising board'Inverness grew in confidence, and Edward Ofere put them ahead in extra-time. That joy was short-lived, though, as goalkeeper Ryan Esson misjudged a John Guidetti free-kick to gift Celtic a 103rd-minute leveller.
The last team to have a longer scoring run in the Premier League was Manchester United in November 2008 (36). Sadio Mane (11) and Mohamed Salah (10) remain the men most likely to score for the Reds, while only Kevin de Bruyne has more assists than Trent Alexander-Arnold (eight). Spurs have problems though. Their boss Jose Mourinho has won just two of his 10 games against Klopp in his managerial career - among the 114 managers he's faced more than twice, only against Ronald Koeman does he have a worse win ratio (17%, one in six).
Fiorentina welcomes Atalanta in the 23`Rd round of the Serie A. The hosts are 14 points behind Atalanta but that has rarely mattered much. Fiorentina is 22 games undefeated at home vs Atalanta. Fiorentina won over Atlanta in the cup just a month ago and the game ended 2:1. Fiorentina definitely has problems with the offensive this season and only a couple of players like Chiesa and Vlahovic have 3 or 4 goals. Atlanta is a crisis of the result as they won only 1 of the last 5. That one, however, was the demolition of Torino which they beat with even 7:0. Ilicic and Muriel are in killer form and I expect goals today.
The forward has been in fine form, scoring two and setting up three, as Sociedad have made a brilliant start to coach Imanol Alguacil’s first full season at the helm. They sit two points behind Real with 23 from their 13 games. It’s a special game for me,” Odegaard said. But truth be told, it doesn’t matter if it’s against Madrid or any other side, all I want to do is play.
Betis are back in form and will give Atletico a good test in this La Liga fixture. They are strong at home with only two league defeats this season. Last season saw them beat Atletico 1-0 at home and another low scoring game looks likely here. The visitors are used to playing in games that have under 2.5 goals scored in them and that's the tip for this match.

Chinese media reported Brazilian duo Paulino and Anderson Talisca, who were influential as Guangzhou Evergrande reclaimed the title last season, remain outside the country as do Beijing Guaon trio Renato Augusto, Jonathan Viera and Cedric Bakambu. With a reduction in the number of flights going into China, players travelling from overseas were already having to take circuitous routes to report to their clubs as preparations slowly built up for the anticipated start to the season.
Former Millwall and Wales striker Steve Morison told BBC Radio 5 Live that Vardy is "relentless and constantly working". Brendan has put a team together who suit him - on the shoulder doing what he does best. When he does that he's unstoppable. Perhaps most tellingly Rodgers said earlier this month: "For me, it's like having two players up there because of his work and his threat. People sometimes ask me, 'Why don't you play with two strikers?' Well, when you have the likes of him and Luis Suarez, who I had at Liverpool, it's like having two.
Chelsea are winless in their last five Champions League games at Stamford Bridge (D4 L1), their longest run without a win in the competition on home soil. Chelsea have had eight different goalscorers in the Champions League this season - excluding own goals, no team have had more than the Blues coming into this final group game. Willian has scored 10 goals for Chelsea in the Champions League. A goal in this game would make him their outright fourth highest scorer in the competition, behind Didier Drogba (36), Frank Lampard (23) and Nicolas Anelka (12).
It was a team that became champions of the world on 30 July the following year, with one of the enduring images of England's 4-2 win after extra time against West Germany a picture of Charlton sinking to his knees, overcome by emotion, before embracing his tearful brother Bobby. Charlton, who won the Footballer of the Year award in 1967, went on to win 35 caps for England, the last of which came in a 1-0 win over Czechoslovakia in a group game at the 1970 Mexico World Cup in June 1970, aged 35.
As we all know, winning isn't everything. Virg. I am very proud to be in that bracket, to be in there for the way I performed with the team last year and also with the country," he said. It is just something to be proud of because not a lot of players go there and are up for these kind of things. There's going to be a winner but there are no losers.
Oissel CMS will host Saint-Malo for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the visitors have a real chance to fighting for all three points in this game. Saint-Malo is very average team in this season. However, they have better team than their opponent. In last game Saint-Malo played in a 1-1 draw with Stade Briochin (away) Also, we have Oissel who's is one of the worst teams in this league. Hosts have low potential in attack. Also, they have a weak defense. They have two consecutive losses. I believe, the hosts are more vulnerable team and for me they could lose.
Fayzkand will host Istaravshan for this fixture of the league. I believe, the hosts have great chance to get all three points. I believe, the hosts have better team than their opponent. Fayzkand are currently on the 3rd place with 5 points. Also, they are undefeated in this new campaign. On the other hand Istaravshan is worst team in this league. They are currently bottom of the table. Visitors have fallen into a very poor show. They have three consecutive losses. In any case, the hosts have a very difficult task. The visitors have a very vulnerable defense. My pick - Fayzkand to win.
Even on their own patch, Tuesday's hosts have struggled to get going. They've won only two out of 13 matches at Globe Arena, losing six of the other nine. However, in recent times, their home form has picked up, as they've lost just one of their last five. They've scored with regularity at home during the last few months but have found it tough to keep teams out. They're without a clean sheet in four home games and have kept just two at home all season.
After riding their luck in recent years, it appears that this will be the season Toulouse finally suffer the drop into Ligue 2, unless things improve significantly after Christmas. The visitors are rock bottom, have just 12 points to their name after 18 matches and are in simply horrendous form.
Football match from the Nigerian league and we have Enugu Rangers playing host to Abia Warriors. The team of Enugu Rangers find themselves close to bottom of the league, they are currently 19th position with 12 point and for a team with such good history this isn't a natural position for them. They have played 4 matches less than most teams as they have been involved in continental tournaments but now they are out and need to focus more on the league.
The Premier League has confirmed one person returned a positive result in its latest round of Covid-19 testing. A total of 1,541 players and club staff were tested for coronavirus this week. The person, who has not been identified, will now self-isolate for seven days. Last week a Norwich player was one of two positive results from 1,200 tests. There have now been a total of 17 positive results from nine rounds of testing.
Jan. After years of seeking a stadium site, Beckham is approved by the MLS for an expansion franchise in Miami with play beginning to 2020. March 23 - Sweden's all-time goal scorer, striker Zlatan Ibrahimović signs with LA Galaxy. He would depart in December 2019, telling fans to "go back to watching baseball.
And it showed here in those awful errors by Van Dijk, so careless when he is normally precise, and goalkeeper Alisson, who was sloppy with a clearance to allow Nelson to score. There was no shortage of effort or determination from Jurgen Klopp's side but even up front they did not possess the ruthless streak that has been such a part of their success, with Salah heading tamely at Martinez when free at the far post and other good positions escaping them.
Arsenal left-back Sead Kolasinac will be sidelined until January after injuring the ligaments in his right ankle during Sunday's 3-0 defeat by Manchester City. The Bosnian, 26, came off after 40 minutes at the Emirates. Arsenal say the defender is "aiming to return to full training in January. Meanwhile, fellow left-back Kieran Tierney has had surgery after dislocating his shoulder in the 3-1 win at West Ham on 9 December.
I think he was angry with his performance," added the Spurs boss. Not with me. I think he understands why I took him off and the team improved. They have Troy Parrott - you have to play him' - pundits reactionFormer Tottenham winger Chris Waddle, working for BBC Radio 5 Live, said Mourinho had the opportunity to include 18-year-old Troy Parrott in the squad. The Irish striker has impressed for the youth team since joining the club in 2017, and has already played twice for the first team this season.
Arsenal were held 0-0 at Burnley on Sunday for their fourth straight Premier League draw, leaving Arteta with only one win from his first seven league matches in charge since replacing Unai Emery in December. They have scored only eight goals in those games. We have to improve quality-wise. We're very far in terms of what I want in sustaining attacks and being unpredictable in our play, but that's a process," Arteta told Sky Sports.
