Football match from the CAF champions league and we have Esperance Tunis playing host to Raja Casablanca. In this match I will bet on a full time draw. The host team Esperance Tunis is favorite to win this game but I don't think they will win, they have 10 points from 4 matches in this group and not many teams will catch them with just 2 matches left, a point here will guarantee 1st place for them. Away team is 2nd and has 7 points, they are 3 points above 3rd placed team and getting a positive result here is key to qualify
We all dream of a team of Riquelmes. Number one is Riquelme. Number two, is…" you get the idea. Juan Roman Riquelme was a major figure in South American football during the 2000s. And his influence can still be felt on the pitch today. In this year's Sao Paulo Junior Football Cup - a competition for Brazilian under-20 football teams - there are 11 players named after the Argentina legend. These are all young lads born between 2000 and 2005 - when Riquelme was in his peak, providing the perfect inspiration for football-mad parents.

The Cherries doubled their lead deservedly six minutes later. Ryan Fraser's low drive from a Harry Wilson set-piece was spilled by former Liverpool keeper Reina in the direction of Ake, who stretched a leg out to send a low finish into the bottom corner. The one sour note for Howe and the home crowd was the sending-off of Lerma on 51 minutes. The Colombia midfielder received both yellow cards for tussles with Villa's star man Grealish and will miss the Cherries' next two games, away to Sheffield United and Burnley.
Hello everyone. Today is going to be a very exciting football match. Two teams are facing each other in this Liga MX match in Mexico: Club America vs. Cruz Azul. Club America is 3th on the table with 18 points from 9 played matches. In last match they won 3:0 vs Atlanta Utd. Cruz Azul is second on the table with 19 points. They won last 5 matches in a row. In last match they won 4:2 vs Tijuana. I find it interesting to place a bet on over 2.5 goals in this match to the odds of 1.85. Good Luck!
Liverpool are away in Qatar and you can bet they would just love this match to end in a draw. The home side are 14 points behind Liverpool going into this game and can't afford to drop many more points. They continue to be scoring plenty of goals but it's their ability at the back that is the problem.
I believe there really should be no question about which team will win this one, the hosts are 2-1-0 this season playing all 3 games so far at home where they won once with 4-0 and once with 2-0 against opponents of similar value as Ming is here, the guests played all 3 games at home and got just one draw and two losses by 2 goals difference and last two games between them one here ended 4-2 for the hosts and one at Ming it ended 7-0 for Hang Yuen as well, so quite clear wins reasons why I even suggest taking the home win by at least 2 goals difference in this encounter.
I wish I had signed that two-year deal'Joel Lynch's contract expired at Sunderland on 30 June. After League One was halted and the Black Cats missed out on the play-offs, the 32-year-old got a call from manager Phil Parkinson to find out he was not in their plans for next season. He has since moved down to London to make life easier for his family. I was initially offered a two-year deal. I thought I'd sign a one-year deal and then sign a new deal after being promoted to the Championship.
Arthur also enjoyed some good luck in adding a fourth, sending the ball into the back of the net despite Ivan Cuellar first making saves from Ansu Fati and Messi. It was 5-0 with just minutes remaining as Messi rounded the goalkeeper from an Ivan Rakitic through ball and sent a finish into the roof of the net.
Bordalas' charges sit just two points outside of the Champions League places as a result of their recent results, and any kind of positive result from this weekend's derby will keep the hosts firmly in contention to challenge for the top four this season.

Nketiah is between two defenders and gets a bit fortunate as the ball bounces kindly and falls for him to finish from close range. KEY STATS Arsenal have gone 11 games without defeat away from home in all competitions (W4 D7), since a 0-2 loss at Leicester in Unai Emery’s final away game in charge of the club – their longest unbeaten run on the road since March to December 2016 (15 matches).
Vysocina Jihlava will host Hradec Kralove for this fixture of the league. I expect, this will be tense match for both sides. I think, both teams have the motivation to make a positive result. Vysocina Jihlava have advantage at home stadium. However, the hosts are in poor shape in the last matches. In any case, they are not convincing team. Also, we have Hradec Kralove who's is also ambitious team in this season. The visitors are undefeated in their last 5 matches. I think, they will try to pick up the victory on the opposite stadium. True, this will not be an easy job.
This fixture features No. 5 vs No. 7 in the league, Mechelen vs Zulte Waregem. The hosts coming from a 1 - 2 away win to Standard liege (no. 3 in the league) and their last home game a 2 - 2 draw with Sporting Charleroi. The hosts coming from a 1 - 2 home loss to Anderlecht (No. 10 in the league) and their last away game a 1 - 2 win over Waasland-Beveren. The hosts should win this one as they played a higher table team than the visitors and themselves scoring multiple goals but conceded one goal to win the match then drew their last home game to a team above the visitors facing a team coming from playing a team below themselves, scoring and conceding multiple goals to lose the match then winning their last away game to a team below themselves scoring and conceding so a win to the hosts.

City's backline has been ravaged by injury, with Guardiola fielding defensive midfielder Fernando in central defence in recent games. The reality is we are 14 points behind for the mistakes we have done, for the quality of our opponents and especially, as well, the things we cannot control," he said.
Not one he got right. NATHAN AKE (24, defender, Bournemouth)Value: £52mLinked with: Manchester City, Chelsea, TottenhamIf this one happens, it will come late in the transfer window. Ake has turned into one of the league's most reliable defenders since joining Bournemouth in 2017 and has become a regular in the Netherlands team. The former Chelsea centre-back is currently out with a hamstring injury and the Blues reportedly have a £40m buy-back clause, £12m lower than his Carteret value.
While football talk show presenter Josep Pedrerol implored Real president Florentino Perez to “kick Bale out”, some fans believe the flag stunt was a ploy for Bale to force his way out of the club. He was set to leave Real for China earlier this year but the transfer fell through at the 11th hour following a change of heart from Perez, who has been Bale’s biggest ally during his time in Spain.
Juventus missed out on the chance to wrap up the Serie A title as they fell to a surprise defeat at struggling Udinese. Juve, who have been Italian champions for exactly 3,000 days, need to win one of their final three games to win their ninth title in a row. They led through Matthijs de Ligt's powerful drive. But Ilija Nestorovski headed in an equaliser before Seko Fofana's brilliant winner in injury time.
Martial also seems to have responded to Fernandes' arrival. The Frenchman's latest goal means he has found the net in three consecutive games for the first time since September 2017. The manner of it was superb - first nudging Christian Kabasele aside, then brilliantly finding space with a neat bit of skill after Foster's initial save had returned the ball to him before keeping his composure to chip into an empty net.

Read the full story Ferguson to stay on at Everton Carlo Ancelotti is finalising his exit from Napoli. The Italian has been sacked but is yet to agree his compensation, which means that Duncan Ferguson could stay on as manager until Boxing Day.

They go to this game with back to back losses to Sheffield United and Burnley and having conceded nine in the last five matches, they will have serious concerns about their defence. They however have back to back wins at home in the Premier League – over Brighton and Aston Villa – but with no clean sheet in the last seven.
What are top clubs doing to help in coronavirus fight?'Footballers painted as villains'During the enforced break from action, some clubs have furloughed non-playing staff but not looked at players' wages. Hancock has called on players "to do more and play their part" and his comments were echoed by Julian Knight, who is chair of the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport committee. Knight has written to Premier League chief executive Richard Masters calling for action on player wages, saying clubs that furlough non-playing staff but do not impose cuts on player wages should be subjected to a windfall tax if they do not change their approach by Tuesday, 7 April.
In the 'Correct Score' market, a 2-0 home win appeals. Wimbledon's recent attacking efforts on the road don't exactly point to them doing well offensively, but their defensive efforts suggest that Rovers can notch twice. After all, Wimbledon have conceded multiple goals in eight out of 11 away from home, conceding exactly twice in six of those eight.
Their Under-21 side will also play in the Leasing. Trophy knockout stage, having won each group game, so Solskjaer has selected several of those players, along with some fit-again fringe players. It's common sense," said Solskjaer. We have done great to qualify after four games, so it gives us an opportunity to give game time to the experienced lads who need it: Axel [Tuanzebe], Luke [Shaw] and Jesse [Lingard].
But no. They’ve limped on to this point and, despite Barca being top of La Liga, Valverde has to go. For a little while, it looked like Mauricio Pochettino would be the replacement, but presumably then everyone remembered that he has always said the two teams he could never now manage are Barcelona and Arsenal, and once said he would rather work on a farm in Argentina than work for them.

Media playback is not supported on this device Squirrel drives Scunthorpe boss Alan Knill nutsClubs in crisisLeague One Bury became the first club since 1992 to be expelled from the Football League when they were removed from the competition in August 2019. After months of financial trouble and the failure of a last-ditch takeover bid before the EFL's deadline, the Shakers lost their place in League One just over three months after winning promotion from the fourth tier.
That poor defensive record has left the hosts with a string of high scoring matches this term. They’ve seen 86% of their home games this term finish with over 2.5 goals scored, while eight of their last nine in the league have seen at least three goals. Both sides are conceding too many – the Saints have shipped 2.29 per game this season – so we think over 2.5 goals is the best way to go in this one.
Guests are one of the best teams so far in Germany Bundesliga, but also and in Europa League, what we could see so far, at least we who are watched this competition. So, Rangers was pretty good at the start of season, but in the meantime, they are became team who is have a lot of problems and they are just not playing good in this moment. Leverkusen, on the other side is very easy beat one strong Porto as a guests, even 3-1 with full domination on the pitch. Rangers with this form will just not have any chance.
Hapoel Ramat Gan is going to face Hapoel Afula. The hosts won only six matches of 14 at home in this season and they struggle so hard in the last weeks. Even that there was a pause they played weak in friendlies matches. Afula had not lost any of the last three matches on Ramat Gan's ground. They lost against them in 2016. After that, they usually won like 1:0. Today I see here a chance for Afula to pick three points or at least one. Both teams play on the similar level and there should not be any difference. I pick double chance here x2

Liverpool moved 22 points clear at the top of the Premier League with comfortable win over Southampton while Bournemouth claimed a valuable win over fellow strugglers Aston Villa. Goals from Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Jordan Henderson and a Mohamed Salah double helped Liverpool to a 4-0 win over Southampton. At the bottom of the table, Bournemouth held on for a narrow 2-1 win against Aston Villa. Philip Billing and Nathan Ake both scored for the Cherries before Jefferson Lerma was sent-off and new signing Mbwana Samatta pulled a goal back for the visitors.
Slask Wroclaw and LKS Lodz will face each other in the upcoming match in the Ekstraklasa in Poland. Slask Wroclaw this season have the following results: 12W, 10D and 7L.

It will be a really surprise if domestic club avoid defeat in this duel against third placed Ajaccio. Orleans is at the bottom of standings, and by my opinion, they will not be able to avoid relegation in current season, their defense is too weak, and their attack is not effective enough, there is a bad atmosphere in the club, plus they are defeated in last three rounds in a row, against much weaker opponents, so in this duel they will to experience plenty of problems, coach maybe try to change tactic, but it won't give any results, they simply not have enough quality for France 2 league. Victory for Ajaccio with more than 1.5 goals AH
Now it's about life and death and trying to control the spread of the virus, so it's a good decision. I'm sure that, next summer, Finnish fans and players can enjoy their time in the spotlight. We just need to be a little bit patient," he added. With games and team training suspended in Denmark, Sparv has been trying to keep fit and focused as the world struggles to bring the COVID-19 virus under control.
Scoring goals has been an issue for St. Johnstone, who're averaging just under a goal per game (0.93), but their big problem is at the other end of proceedings. Restricting teams and keeping clean sheets are two things that Tommy Wright's men seemingly cannot do, especially away from home.
In my opinion, there is no real favorite here. Bnei Yehuda is definitely in better shape right now. But for them it's not about anything anymore and they have announced that they will be routing in one or the other position. The guests need points, although they are in a good situation and have still not confirmed their place, while the home team has already done so and can play this game relaxed. I think that the guests will enter this match with a much greater desire and I hope that they will manage a point at least. They won 11 games this season. Bnei Yehuda has much better form than Ashdod. Ashdod lost 3 of 6 last matches. They won only 8 matches this season. I think there will be a draw.
G.A. Eagles and Graafschap will face each other in the upcoming match in the Eerste Divisie. G.A. Eagles this season have the following results: 12W, 12D and 4L. Meanwhile Graafschap have 16W, 11D and 1L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Bundesliga 1. We have a Match where team Freiburg will play at home with team Wolfsburg. My bet will be on guests how draw no bet. Hosts takes 6 place in rankings. They did 2 draw games and defeat at last 3 matches played. Guests did 2 wins and defeat ( at last match with Werder Bremen ) at last 3 matches played. As I wrote the last defeat with Werder was very unsuccessful for Wolfsburg. I hope that before our match they will prepare very carefully. Maybe we will see a draw game between our teams. But more advantages for guests .
