In the betting, 'Lille to Win & Over 1.5 Goals' gets the nod. Quite simply, Lille have outperformed Amiens this term and their home exploits have been considerably better than Amiens' weak efforts on the road. With an average of 1.8 goals for, having scored multiple goals against bottom-half teams such as Bordeaux, Nimes, Strasbourg and St. Etienne, Lille are backed to score multiple goals on route to beating a side that has struggled defensively on the road. Not only have Amiens conceded multiple goals in each of their last five on the road, but they are also the second-worst team in the division when it comes to shots on target conceded.
Holders Bayern Munich beat Eintracht Frankfurt to set up a German Cup final against Bayer Leverkusen. Ivan Perisic's stooping header was the only goal of a first half the treble chasers entirely dominated. Eintracht, the 2018 winners, improved after the break and Danny da Costa levelled moments after coming on. Robert Lewandowski scored the winner from Joshua Kimmich's pass, with a goal initially ruled out for offside but awarded by the video assistant referee.
Lawro's prediction: 2-0James' prediction: 3-0 Leicester v Man UtdUnited don't need a win to make the top four but I think they will get one - they are definitely playing Leicester at the right time. Lawro's prediction: 1-2James' prediction: I want to see Leicester fight for the top four but I just think United are in a good place at the moment. What happens could depend on whether United keeper David de Gea has another nightmare or not, though.
Bayern II has a good chance at this point to promote and it will be their second promotion in a row as unlike other seasons their reserve side has some good quality players like the Germany U21 international striker Arp playing as lone striker for them and he has scored plenty of goals for his side, the start of the season was not so great for them but in the games played by them so far this year they have been one of the best clubs in this 3rd league level reason why they are so close to the promotion places as well right now.
Perhaps the tactics were wrong, too; but credit to Southampton, who stuck to their plan and grabbed three points in style. Nathan Redmond of Southampton scores his team's second goal past Kepa Arrizabalaga of Chelsea during the Premier League match between Chelsea FC and Southampton FC at Stamford Bridge on December 26, 2019 in London, United Kingdom.
It's clear to see then that Athletic Club face a real test this weekend and they go into the fixture in the unenviable position of searching for their first away win of the season after four draws and two defeats.
VAR and its implementation was discussed at length during a Premier League shareholders meeting earlier this month when chief referee Mike Riley accepted that "improvement is required" in terms of decision-making speed and consistency. One of the biggest criticisms has been the lack of information on the decision-making process being provided to fans at the stadiums since replays cannot be shown on the big screens until a final decision is made.
As the club's official Twitter account put it: "No airs and graces, just hard work. There is a lot more to this Sheffield United side than graft, although they were given only fleeting opportunities to demonstrate this at Anfield. United asked more questions of the Reds than most sides this season when they met at Bramall Lane in September, an error from goalkeeper Henderson leading to the game's only goal from Wijnaldum.
Florenzi, who has 35 caps for Italy, came through the youth setup at Roma, playing in both defence and midfield for his boyhood club. He was part of the team that reached the Champions League semi-finals in 2018. The 28-year-old was named captain of the club last year in the wake of Daniel De Rossi's departure.
Sunday's Superliga Argentina action sees Boca Juniors doing battle with Union de Santa Fe in La Bombonera. The hosts arrive as big favourites to win the match but an open and exciting game is expected to be in order.
Germany 3 liga and match between Victoria Koln and Zwickau. Last match between Braunschweig and Victoria Koln, where Braunschweig won 4:2, was a great and open match on both sides, and I expect something like that even today since Zwickau plays similar football. Zwickau played 2:2 with Hansa in the last round and before that lost Uerdingen with 4:2. In the first part of the season, Zwickau celebrated at home 4:0, so here Victoria Koln will ask for revenge. Victoria Koln has a goal difference of 48:57 which is an average of 3.8 goals per match while Zwickau has a goal difference of 42:43 which is an average of 3 goals per match. My opinion for this match is over 2.5 goals.
I am sorry to say it but I think it could be quite a big United win. SUNDAY Sheff Utd v Arsenal (FA Cup quarter-final, 13:00 BST)Like Norwich, Sheffield United are another team who do not look like they have got a goal in them at the moment. The Blades are just not playing as well as they were earlier in the season, but maybe the fact they are playing Arsenal might help them out. Arsenal are just a mess at the moment, and this is a situation that has been coming for while.
Of course, much of their success stems from Chris Wilder’s fantastic tactical awareness and their defensive organisation, but they aren’t shy going forward either. In fact, they have scored in all but one of their Premier League away days this term, and on Sunday they face a Man City side that have conceded in six of their nine home matches.
Say what you will about the FA, but they’re usually pretty quick on any reference to race by a player. A fine and maybe even a short ban awaits. Ole’s going to be at the wheel for a little while longer yet As Mauricio Pochettino and Max Allegri sit there on the managerial shelf gathering dust, Manchester United are cheerfully continuing with the plan that has been so wildly successful this season.
Manchester City host Burnley and may well rotate their squad for this game. It's their final match before their Champions League second leg against Real Madrid. They won't want to go the same way as Tottenham and Liverpool. Home form remains strong for City and they have a great record against Burnley. Their away record has improved of late but this looks booked for a home win with City ahead at both half and full time.
Looking again, it looks like Kolasinac was offside when the header came, and if he wasn't there, Ryan could have saved easily, but VAR remains silent. Alexandre Lacazette of Arsenal celebrates scoring his teams first goal during the Premier League match between Arsenal FC and Brighton & Hove Albion at Emirates Stadium on December 05, 2019 in London, United Kingdom.
But he is not after a career, he just wants to see if he can get his approach, so familiar to the club, to work. But it isn't in the passing aspect of the game where he could potentially be let down but rather in the work rate of the players without the ball, which is precisely where Valverde was hung out to dry by some of his team. This side has the look and feel of the dressing room at the end of the Frank Rijkaard era, when I remember the likes of Xavi and Andres Iniesta telling me they were losing their love for the game.

The 53-year-old Scot replaces John Gregory, who left the two-time champions on Saturday after a lacklustre start to the season. Coyle, who took Burnley to the English Premier League in 2009, was most recently manager of Scottish side Ross County. It will be my immense privilege to join a club with so much success already in its early history with two ISL titles," Coyle said in a statement https://chennaiyinfc.

It gradually got better," McCarthy said of the performances. I look back at the Gibraltar game, the first game in, an Astroturf pitch, blowing a gale and an airplane taking off at eight o'clock, when we just scraped through. But we did scrape through and I said at the time that the only thing that mattered was the result. We only lost one out of 10, and that was in Switzerland, and they're the best team in the group.
The second period was completely one-sided as Phillips headed home Pereira's lofted centre and substitute Edwards added the fifth just two minutes after coming on, taking Pereira's pass in his stride and cutting inside a defender to drill past the keeper from 10 yards. The Baggies are now unbeaten in 10 games and have not tasted defeat at The Hawthorns in 16 matches, the club's best home run in almost a century.
It turned out De Bruyne had not taken one for City since October 2016 but he had obviously agreed in advance that it was his turn to have a go. I think he was the right choice and if he does miss one in the future, I don't think he should stop taking them. He has just kept on getting better and better in the past couple of years and, at the level he is at now, I think he could just take it on the chin and think 'I am one of the best players in the world, look what else I deliver'.
Sunday's Brazilian Serie A action sees Palmeiras doing battle with Flamengo at the Allianz Parque. The visiting champions will be looking to get the better of last season’s title winners to prove why they are Brazil’s top dogs.
RETRO CORNER Twelve years ago today, Arsenal went to Anfield to play a League Cup quarter-final. They conceded three, which might have been a problem, had they not scored six of their own. You’ll remember Julio Baptista scoring four, of course, but the Warm-Up had entirely forgotten the shift that Jérémie Aliadière put in.
In their most recent match, Dinamo Brest met Smolevichy-STI in 2018, which was a match in the Belarus Premier League. Dinamo Brest defeated Smolevichy-STI - with a score of 1-0.

Dinamo Brest has scored an average of 1 goal per game and their opponent, Smolevichy-STI, has scored an average of 1.5 goals per game each time they meet. In 2019 Dinamo Brest played 37 matches. They have 23 wins, 9 draws, and 5 losses. In other words, Dinamo Brest won 62%, drew 24% and lost 13%. I choose Dinamo Brest -1.75 AH
With Cheltenham they were following at the time the government guidelines," he told Good Morning Britain. They were the ones that had asked for advice. I suppose that will be the same when we stopped and when do we go back - the same people will be making decisions. Look, the reality of it is that a lot of lives have been lost because of it [coronavirus].
This victory lifts Newcastle up to a respectable looking 11th place in the Premier League, and with matches against Southampton, Burnley, Crystal Palace and Everton in December there is a realistic chance that they could enter the new year in the top half of the table.
Wolves then tried to go for the jugular, but Brendan Rodgers’ team sat back to absorb the pressure. Talking Point - Jimenez held Wolves back Linked with Manchester United in the winter transfer window, Raul Jimenez was in the right place on several occasions as his team-mates picked him out with one cross after another.
Torino’s fortunes against Genoa may well be about to turn. The hosts have won their last three Serie A meetings vs Genoa: the last time the Granata had a longer winning strike against the Rossoblu in the competition was in 1982 (five). They are also hoping to make history at this ground. Torino have won their last two encounters in Serie A against Genoa at the Ferraris: the Granata have never won three consecutive matches in a row vs the Rossoblu away from home in the competition.
The midfielder made a world-record move in 2001, scoring a picture-book volley in the final as Real Madrid won the Champions League in his first season, and retired after an eventful 2006 World Cup, winning the Golden Ball and being sent off as France lost in the final. Wright: "When people say poetry in motion, you watch Zidane and you get it. Shearer: "He was the best player I ever played against.
But we cannot lower our guard, it is important to follow health regulations and ensure the pandemic doesn't come back. Football in Spain was suspended on 12 March because of the coronavirus pandemic. The players in the top two divisions were only able to return to individual training in early May after being tested for the virus. Five players tested positive for the virus across Spain's top two divisions and went into isolation prior to the first phase of group training being allowed from 18 May.
Six clubs are determined to finish the League One season by completing their remaining fixtures, says Peterborough chairman Darragh MacAnthony. MacAnthony released a statement on behalf of Posh, Oxford, Sunderland, Fleetwood, Portsmouth and Ipswich. League One clubs are due to meet with the EFL board on Friday to discuss options for completing the season. Elite football in England has been suspended since mid-March because of the coronavirus pandemic.
I don't see Jose Mourinho allowing another loss on Thursday. Also Tottenham have been dominating this game, though this season Brighton won 3-0. When playing at home Tottenham have not lost to Brighton. Tottenham have just one loss that happened this season out of five played against their opponent.

9th placed Crystal Palace are one place and one point ahead of Arsenal in 10th ahead of the clubs' clash at Selhurst Park on Saturday, though a win for either team this weekend could launch the victor to within touching distance of 5th spot.
It's a big weekend as the race to qualify for next season's Champions League heats up, with Chelsea hosting Tottenham Hotspur before Manchester City travel to Leicester City on Saturday. There's now just one point separating fourth-placed Chelsea and Spurs in fifth, which means their match could have huge implications as the top teams battle to take their place on European football's biggest stage next season.
Inter are battling with Juventus for the league title and Conte knows the difference Eriksen could make if he joins in January, so it makes sense for the Nerazzurri to pay a fee to bring the Danish playmaker in to strengthen their title bid. However, Inter will need Eriksen to rediscover his form quickly, as he has not been at his best this season in England.

Going forward, Benfica have often made their mark in Group G; they've scored in 100% of their games, scoring a respectable seven goals. However, they've let themselves down at the other end of proceedings, conceding 11, keeping zero clean sheets. By conceding at least twice in four out of five, Benfica have made life very tough for themselves.
EVERTON CHANCE! Richarlison surges into the left side of the box, but Leno is there to deny his low shot. Another fine stop from the keeper. ARSENAL CHANCE! Pickford's poor clearance leads to a big chance for Nketiah, who sees his thumping shot cannon back off the bar. Arsenal so close to clinching the points.
I don’t think it is sustainable but that is my personal view. Every competition organiser has to decide what is best for him. In the short term it can be a solution in order to move on but you cannot imagine a few months of a competition with several matches played behind closed doors. Video - Arsenal after Atleti star.
And it would take a bigger, better, less weird group to overcome Tim Krul from the penalty mark. What a delightfully irritating goalkeeper he is. Fortunately for Spurs, they are blessed with a maverick political genius in their ranks. No, not Jose Mourinho: Eric Dier. In accordance with the “dead cat” theory of political distraction, which calls for spectacular distraction at moments of crisis, Dier took the heat off his comrades by charging into the stands after the game to confront a fan.
Barcelona B is in 5th place with 29 points while Espanyol B is in 3rd place with 33 points. Barcelona B have scored 25 goals and have conceded 18 goals while Espanyol B have scored 32 goals and have conceded 20 goals. I expect a home win here but however I prefer to bet on goals because I see a strong match between two teams that are fighting for promotion. Barcelona B have main objective of this season to get the promotion and of course they have talented players so I expect them to fight from the first minute. Also Espanyol B is making a good season and I expect also from them to fight for points here and I expect at least 3 goals in this match.
The goal drew an intense reaction from City, as Fernandinho hit the post and the in-form Alex McCarthy kept out David Silva's header in the aftermath. The visitors rarely let up thereafter but were repeatedly left frustrated by Saints goalkeeper McCarthy, whose one-handed save from Gabriel Jesus in the second half was the pick of several superb stops. Southampton had chances of their own amid the increasing City pressure but neither Nathan Redmond nor Danny Ings could convert rare opportunities, while Ederson was alert to Stuart Armstrong's swerving shot.

There are a lot of clubs and attractive projects for me to take on," Pochettino told Fox Sports in Argentina. FULL STORY 15:40 - Messi has touched down Will it be a wasted trip though? 15:23 - Dann, Cahill out for Palace Crystal Palace defenders Scott Dann and Gary Cahill will miss Tuesday's Premier League match with Bournemouth due to injury, manager Roy Hodgson said on Monday.
It is starting to happen, the Jordan Henderson (charity) thing is happening, some of the clubs are doing good stuff, I think Liverpool stopping the furlough was good, these things are happening," he said. It is difficult at the moment because you can’t have proper meetings but the Premier League, the FA, the EFL, the PFA just need to get on a call and say this is where we are, here is where we want to get to, and here is how we are going to do it.
The hardest thing for me was getting on phone calls and consistently hearing people say 'we just don't know' or 'there's no new information'. You kind of got yourself excited for these things," she said. For what ended up being two months, there was really no new information. There's an extra level of awareness' Janine Beckie (pictured right) has kept in touch with team-mates including Gemma Bonner (pictured left), room-mate Aoife Mannion and midfielders Caroline Weir and Keira WalshWhen the decision to end the WSL was made, Beckie was "constantly monitoring the situation in the UK" and had frequent updates from staff at City on how she would be able to return to training.
