Bordeaux will be glad to back at the Matmut Atlantique where they have been imperious so far in the campaign. The home stadium has been where they have picked up most of their recent points with them currently on a run of four consecutive wins there. Sturdy sides like Monaco (2-1) and Nantes (2-0) have been surpassed in the last few weeks but the hosts also showed last week that they can really turn it on when they want to as they thrashed Nîmes 6-0.
Cardiff and Nantes remain in dispute over the transfer fee for Sala. The Welsh club had refused to pay any of the fee, claiming the agreement was not legally binding so Sala was not officially their player when he died. But in September, world governing body Fifa ruled the club should pay the first instalment of £5. Nantes. Cardiff have challenged the ruling and a Court of Arbitration for Sport hearing in Lausanne is expected in the spring, with a judgement due to follow in June.
One curious stat about the two sides though is that they have been scoring a lot of goals lately and the same is expected in this cup game. Four Manchester United’s last five matches have produced over 2. They have failed to score in one, while two of the five ended in clean sheets. In total, United have scored 16 goals in the last five matches, but they have conceded seven.
Davis, Kamara, Jack and Scott Arfield were the main forces in midfield that day and Celtic couldn't handle them. Then came Celtic's convincing 2-0 win at Ibrox. After that came the League Cup final and we all know about the smash-and-grab that took place there. It's instructive to think back to the early stages of that final and the menace that Rangers possessed from corners and free-kicks. Three times in the opening minutes Goldson and Filip Helander won headers around Celtic's six-yard box.
RETURNING INJURIES Every England fan has the same nightmare: Harry Kane rushing back from injury for Euro 2020, saying he’s fine and hobbling around not doing anything (except banging home penalties). Kane, a definite starter if available, needs to be able to rehabilitate without the pressure from his country and an increasingly irate Jose Mourinho.
He was joined on the touchline by Duncan Ferguson, who had been in charge for four league games as interim boss and remains part of Ancelotti's coaching team. When Silva was dismissed, Everton were in the bottom three, but they were rejuvenated under Ferguson as they beat Chelsea and drew with Manchester United and Arsenal. And Everton continued their recent revival by finally breaking down Burnley, who defended excellently for 80 minutes.
But it will be the two VAR decisions that will overshadow all else when they come to reflect, not because of the legitimacy of the two handballs or the accuracy of the technology in the decision-making, but the misfortune it represents. Both of the goals they scored - albeit different in nature - were ruled out for the a similar reason, but the second was far more costly than the first and came with an added sting in the tail.
What was he saving Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino for? Bournemouth at home? In far more serious news, a conversation needs to be had about Mason Mount's haircut. An absolute aberration. Frank Lampard, Chelsea v LiverpoolGetty Images The Nations League is back Yeah. Already. It was decent to be fair but it literally seems like it was less than 12 months ago that Portugal beat Netherlands in the final.

It caps an impressive end to the season for Dean Smith's side, who were seven points from safety two weeks ago but then put together their first four-game unbeaten run of 2019-20 to survive. It was a game of few chances at the London Stadium, although the in-form Michail Antonio would have made Villa's afternoon a lot more tense had he not blazed a shot wide with just the keeper to beat in the first half.
it is pretty clear why I decide to go with draw in this match because hansa Rostock is favorite for the win but obviously they are not better team then hallescher and also hansa did not played draw for 10 games in a row and I think it is perfect time for that to happen,hale she has 5 wins on the road this season which is pretty good but also they played draw just one time on the road and that is why I pick draw but withdraw it is never sure so I of course don't want to recommend this bet
RKC have picked up 4pts from their last three home games while Twente have picked up 1pt from their last three away games, and neither team head into Friday’s match in the best of form. Both teams scored and over 2.5 goals were produced in three of RKC’s last five matches as well as in three of Twente’s last five matches, adding more weight to our prediction for Friday’s head to head.
Red bull Salzburg playing from home will try to win their strong contending opponent, LASK Linz which is also a pressurizing team and will not sleep for the home team to score them freely. Both sides are good at attacking and will put up a good performance on the pitch. The home side has been so far amazing in the last matches they played in the league and win winning will push them further in the league. Both sides will score and and an expected goal of 2-1,3-2 will be in this particular game. At the end of the day, the home will carry the victory.

SAVE! Still no goals for Liverpool, but they do deserve one. Nyland make a wonderful initial stop from Gallacher before Clarkson goes close again with a leaping header, but it goes straight at the goalkeeper. GOAL! Aston Villa 5-0 Liverpool. There is the goal from Wesley to cap the evening for Villa.
Moyes still faces an uphill struggle but he can at least take some encouragement from West Ham's display once the bitter taste of defeat has eased. A bad record for Moyes - the best of the statsWest Ham manager David Moyes remains without an away win against Liverpool in all competitions, failing in 16 attempts (D7, L9) and losing the last four in a row with Man Utd, Sunderland and West Ham. Liverpool have won their last 21 home Premier League games, equalling the English top-flight record for consecutive home wins, set by the Reds themselves between January and December 1972 under Bill Shankly.
Frosinone has 4 wins in a row at home without conceding a single goal as they even defeated some decent teams like Empoli with 4-0, they won 2-0 against Chievo, also 3-0 win with Trapani and 1-0 win against Livorno and they are really great at home with a record of 5-2-0 in the league this season not to mention that they also won their first away game in the league away at Juve Stabia last round with 2-0 even, and also played at Parma pretty well in the Italian Cup competition losing narrowly.

Hello everyone tipsters from this great game. For today I will take this game between Levski and Ludogorets for Bulgarian Cup. This is a quarter final for this cup. For me this is a very nice bet for today because for home team will be very hard to get some of this game. They have a lot of problems financially and I think they not have chance today. They not win last for games. The guest team have just three wins last few games and I think they will be very motivated to take a win here and I will take win for them.
It was horrible watching them have to leave. I just assumed Theo Walcott was there for experience. It was obvious he was going to be a huge talent, he had just signed for Arsenal and England did it with a lot of players over the years - I remember Steve Gerard, Rio Ferdinand, Gareth Barry and lots of young players drafted into the full England squad before they were ready because they were always going to be a part of the senior setup at some stage.
It was boldly announced on these pages (albeit after successive losses to Inter Milan and Barca) that Pochettino's claim "no longer stood up to close scrutiny" and "it is stretching reality and credibility to suggest they are among the best in Europe. Turns out they were not so bad after all - especially as they reached the Champions League final. Going too early on Unai's Arsenal revolution Unai Emery was appointed Arsenal manager in May 2018Arsenal's 4-2 win over Spurs on 2 December 2018 was a thrilling confirmation of everything the Gunners and their fans were getting from Unai Emery in the post-Arsene Wenger era.
CORREA STAKES HIS CLAIM Atletico Madrid's Argentine forward Angel Correa was close to leaving in the summer but is proving a crucial presence at the Wanda Metropolitano. With Atletico locked in a stalemate at Real Betis on Sunday, Diego Simeone threw on the electric striker. Correa created the first goal as he won the ball back high up the pitch and rounded Betis goalkeeper Joel Robles before finishing coolly and set up the second for Alvaro Morata.
The win means Liverpool could be champions by the time they play Everton in the league on 16 March - if Manchester City lose their next three games against Manchester United, Arsenal and Burnley. Eddie Howe's side remain in the relegation zone, level on points with Watford and West Ham but with a worse goal difference than their nearest rivals at the bottom. Reds back to winning ways - justLiverpool manager Klopp spoke before the game about "getting back on track immediately" after watching his side slip to consecutive defeats in the league and FA Cup.
Everton were handed a relatively kind opening fixture list, yet were uninspired and insipid, losing to all three newly promoted teams, including Sheffield United and Norwich City at home, the latter provoking a fierce, toxic reaction. Silva's quiet, understated personality also meant he struggled to make a connection with Everton's fans. While no-one can be something they are not, he cut a sharp contrast to the animated, and successful, Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool.
Steve,” said Ferguson. This game isn’t finished. He started shouting at the players to get back to the halfway line so that the game could resume as quickly as possible. There were 26 seconds between Bayern kicking off and Solskjaer winning a corner for United. Beckham ran across to take it, again struggling to make room because the photographers were so close to the pitch.
Stoke City boss Michael O'Neill told BBC Radio Stoke: "People have always known there is quality in the squad. What we have to do is build the right atmosphere for that quality to flourish. We have to start well next season. We haven't started well in either season in the Championship, so that we are playing on the front foot. This was the first game we have had since I've come in where we can play in somewhat of a more relaxed fashion.
They won’t be the only club facing such a problem, but it might have a knock-on effect in the next round of transfers and contract negotiations, with the money having to come from somewhere.

But, of course, this is Inter, where logic and good sense disappears like a perfume spritz in the breeze. IN OTHER NEWS Not really sure what there is to add to this other than…bloody hell! HEROES AND ZEROS Heroes: The Championship Bored of the Premier League? Uninterested in a procession as Liverpool saunter to their first title in 30 years? Not keen on the big time?

The football is back in Estonia, after the long break, because of the events that happened outside of the football. The league actually never really started, it is only 2nd round, the clubs never reached their peak form and we cannot make any comparison between the teams. Flora are the defending champions and by far the best team in the country.

The total gross spend for the 2019-20 season, including the close-season window, has been 1. But only 25 million of that was spent on Friday's deadline day, as short-term loan deals dominated the headlines. None of the top four clubs entered the market on the final day, while fifth-placed Manchester United made a surprise addition to their squad by bringing in Nigerian striker Odion Ighalo on loan from Chinese club Shanghai Shenhua.
It is the first Ligue 1 game to be postponed because of the coronavirus outbreak. Several other sporting events in the country have been affected. The Paris marathon, initially scheduled for April 5, was postponed to Oct 18 and a number of cycling teams pulled out of the Paris-Nice stage race that starts on Sunday.
Something Liverpool were not willing to do, it should be noted. Moussa to the rescue? Meanwhile, with Marcus Rashford out for at least six weeks with a back injury, United could step up their pursuit for Lyon striker Moussa Dembele, the Mirror reports. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said United would look at short-term loans to deal with the Rashford blow, but Dembele would very much be a permanent option, potentially costing the club £43m.
That story speaks volumes about how the game has changed; the sentiment behind it is very apt. Last week I suggested the north London giants should look no further than Carlo Ancelotti. Meanwhile, Everton have gone for the more experienced man. I completely understand the argument that after more than 20 years of Arsene Wenger, another advocate of the 'old school' might not have been to Arsenal's taste.

Lawro's prediction: 0-1Tom's prediction: 0-0 Wolves v BrightonNuno Espirito Santo has done a terrific job at Wolves. They just keep on going, and last weekend's win over Tottenham was the latest occasion where they won, and impressed me. Brighton need a win to halt their slide towards the drop zone, but I just don't see them having enough of the ball to cause Wolves problems. Lawro's prediction: 2-0Tom's prediction: Wolves to win 100%.
