Spurs looked the more dangerous side in the early part of the first half, with Son Heung-Min consistently finding himself with plenty of space on the left wing, and Watford looking for answers in terms of how to shut him down.

Moreirense are at the mid table and they are safe. Their primary task was to secure their participation here and for the next season and they did it, so from now on they can play without any pressure and without any burden on players back most certainly.On the other hand we have Famalicao.
Leverkusen have also been good away from home this season. They have won four of their six Bundesliga away games. Only Schalke and RB Leipzig have earned more points away from home than Leverkusen. This is despite Leverkusen playing at least one less away game than all but two other Bundesliga teams, at present.
Newport may have the second best defensive record in League Two but they have conceded in each of their last four and a total of five times in their last two. While Oldham are not the most prolific, they average 1.06 goals per game, however, given that they concede an average of two goals per game away from home, a 2-1 home win seems likely.
I see at least two goals in this match who will be played tonight in Spain Second league and I will try that option. So, Almeria is team who is this season playing much better than it was the case in last few seasons, when they are fight for survival. This one, they are playing great and they are one of the favorites for promotion in Primera. In last six matches, this team is played with even four or more goals, so for me, that is good reason to try with goals and this time. It is very very real.
Wolves could do with a win after a mixed festive season. Their home form is still strong and they should be able to get a win over Newcastle United. Their opponents are again struggling for form and have plenty of defensive and injury problems. Go for Wolves to win this game.

Fulham has fail to win in last round against Millwall, result was a draw, but a good news for their team is that A. Mitrovic was returned into squad and he scored a goal in last round. As you know, he is top scorer in Championship, also Cavaleiro and Reid will be in attack for the host.

Barcelona had to prove that Dembele was out for six months before being allowed to make a move. Barcelona are the first club to utilise a clause that Fifa asked the Spanish FA to remove in 2016, but Valencia are trying to follow them after injuries to two centre-backs. Every player in Spanish football has a release clause in his contract - some more realistic than others - and Barca were able to pay the £15m to sign Braithwaite, who joined Leganes from Middlesbrough in the summer.
LASK have the advantage going to this game after the first leg draw and their home form will favor them too. They have no loss in five straight games at home in the competition and they have been scoring well at home. AZ on the other hand, have struggled a bit in this competition; they have no win in their last three matches and they have struggled away from home, not just in this competition. They were second best at home and will have a bigger task here. We are backing the home side for a win.

We believe his track record of achieving success at unfashionable, underperforming clubs makes him an attractive long-term appointment," said majority shareholder John Fenty on the club website. Fenty said an initial two hour long telephone conversation with Holloway had led to four more hours of talks in a fish restaurant in Cleethorpes.
Chinandega hasn't been fully brilliant in this season so far, having won just 3 out of 9 games and scored no more than 9 goals, however Deportivo Las Sabanas has been certainly worse than them, having won just once and having also scored just 5 total goals. Deportivo Las Sabanas has also shown the worst defense of the whole League, having conceded 22 goals so far, 11 more than Chinandega. Chinandega has clearly won the first leg during this season conceding no goal to Deportivo Las Sabanas, so another win is expected for them. Chinandega is slightly overpriced so I will bet on them.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta may have been the man with the inside track on Manchester City after those years of success standing behind Pep Guardiola in the technical area - but some of his former club's deficiencies are obvious to everyone. First things first. This was a personal and tactical triumph for Arteta, who left his role as Guardiola's assistant in December to take charge of an Arsenal team in crisis as successor to Unai Emery.
Jadon Sancho picks up the ball on the right side of the pitch and sets off on a driving, weaving run, gliding between two men before breezing past another. He still has a lot to do when he reaches the edge of the box but he makes it look so easy with a low, precise side-foot finish. The game is only a friendly before the 2019-20 season, and opponents Seattle Sounders are nowhere near Borussia Dortmund's league, but it is still a goal that makes you sit up and take notice.
There were some Saints fans who questioned the wisdom of committing £20m to a player with Ings' injury record, something that was not entirely dispelled by an encouraging but inconsistent first season, that saw him score seven times but also miss a number of games with minor niggles. Such is his rejuvenation this campaign, supporters now balk at suggestions the striker may leave for anything less than twice the price, with Tottenham the latest club linked with a January move.
It’s been a remarkable rise for Ronaldo, but this has not been without challenges and this was no different as his Juventus journey began. CLASH OF CHARACTERS Ronaldo was not the only new guy on the block – the ‘Old Lady’ hired ex-Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri as their new manager and there appeared to be some friction in the air as the pair looked to make their mark.
The Robins have reignited their hopes of securing a playoff spot this season, but they need to find some consistency. They do end to pick up results in spells, so they will be hoping that their latest victory is the start of another strong run of form to kick off the New Year.
Duckenfield cleared of manslaughter The police commander in charge of operations at the 1989 Hillsborough stadium crush that killed 96 Liverpool supporters has been found not guilty of manslaughter. Former Chief Superintendent David Duckenfield was in charge of the stadium at an FA Cup semi-final match against Nottingham Forest 30 years ago.
this match is going to be a feisty affair between two top team rivals that aim at solidifying their dominance within the la liga setting by trashing other teams .Valencia have been over performing mainly by being a threat to all top plight teams whereas Madrid have been more of a cautious teams who try by all means to concede less scores by defending more. This game is surely not one to predict an outright winner however guarantee of at least one goal is a plausible prediction which I personally feel is the best prediction towards this chilly game a
Olympic year, so women's football will be in the spotlight once more. Although the men's competition at the Games is for young senior players, the top female stars will all be hoping to be in action - winning Olympic gold has long been one of the biggest prizes on offer.

Sampdoria has quite a famous coach in Claudio Ranieri who recently shocked the football world by winning the title with Leicester City in the Premier League, and in his first game with Sampdoria after the restart they had a tough away game at 3rd placed Inter and were 2-0 behind at half-time, they did not really attempt to take control of the game as the hosts enjoyed 72% of the ball but Sampdoria scored one goal in the second half and ended up losing the game just 2-1 in the end.
We had the belief before that game that we could go toe-to-toe with them. I think that we have improved this season and that probably in my first game there away last season - when we lost 1-0 - was the only time that we haven't gone toe-to-toe with them. I think that every game has been tight. Obviously, we have won some and we've lost some, but I've never felt like we've been completely outmatched or outplayed.
Santa Clara’s away games produced an average of 1.71 total goals, adding further weight to our prediction of under 2.5 goals being scored in Saturday’s clash. In fact, over 2.5 goals have only been scored in 25% of Guimaraes’ home games and in 14% of Santa Clara’s away games, which suggests that under 2.5 goals are more likely to be scored this weekend.
After being saved from relegation last season due to Gateshead being unable to obtain a National League license, Aldershot are struggling once again and may not be so lucky this time around. 20th and just 1 point clear of the drop zone, The Shots are in a concerning position and need to find improvement.
Tuesday's ruling could potentially lead to a 22-team Ligue 1 for the 2020-21 season, an increase of two sides. The appeal against the original decision by the LFP to end the season, which was suspended on 13 March because of the coronavirus pandemic, was brought by Lyon, Amiens and Toulouse. Lyon were fifth going into what proved to be the final round of matches, but finished seventh under the points-per-game system - missing out on European qualification as a result.
We'll be back but not in the short-term. Knowledgeable football fans know and understand that. Dan: How I've sat through nearly 70 minutes of this diabolical excuse of a United performance, I do not know. Wan-Bissaka has been our greatest goal threat. WAN-BISSAKA. The player known best for tackling well. Good job we're busy in the transfer window. Sukhraj: Absolutely horrific football from Man Utd.

The statue, which is outside Malmo's stadium in Sweden, previously had its nose cut off after Ibrahimovic invested in a rival club in December. The damage was discovered at 3.

Now he has 17,900. The goal against United - and the media exposure in the hours and days that followed - got him recognition from fans and footballers alike. James Maddison tweeted about me saying I had a fantastic interview and that was unreal. I followed him at Norwich and now he's at Leicester - for someone like that to be watching a video of me, that is just ridiculous, that is amazing to me.

That goalkeeper Foster was the Watford player who attempted the most passes (29) tells a story in itself. So too does the fact their team pass total was a paltry 232, against the visitors' 750. City midfielder Rodri alone made 131. All they can do now is hope that Villa fail to get a result against Arsenal and that they can then get something themselves against a Gunners side who beat City just a few days ago.

Noble rounded off a perfect first half for West Ham with a 35th-minute penalty, sending goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale the wrong way after he was fouled by Harry Wilson as he muscled his way past the Bournemouth forward. Anderson added the fourth midway through the second half as he shook off his marker and slid the ball under Ramsdale before a VAR check rescinded a red card for West Ham defender Aaron Cresswell, who was instead booked for a poor tackle.
The 22-year-old player has annoyed his manager by failing to adhere to timekeeping standards, and he has fallen behind Buyako Saka and Eddie Nketiah in terms of youngsters who are making good progress in their careers. Paper Round’s view: Maitland-Niles is a talented, quick and versatile player. With those qualities it should be easy for him to hold down a place - at the very least - as a reliable squad player.
Friendly/practice/warm-up matches in preparation for the restart of the competition are permitted to use the version of the Laws that will be used when the competition restarts. The member associations will now pass this guidance on to the competitions, who will make their own decisions on which rules to use at the point football resumes.
