With so many attacking avenues to guard, Sparta will spend much of this match defending. There could be attacking opportunities on the counter but we don't see many materialising given Ajax's strong defensive record (they have only conceded five goals in nine home Eredivisie matches). Plus, Sparta struggle to score away from home, managing only eight goals in nine games. Therefore, we think that the best bet is a home win with a clean sheet.
Hearts has 4 losses in a row in the league at this moment and they are bottom of the league because they have a record of just 1-1-7 in their last 9 league games at this moment and really won just 2 games all season long while at home in the league they are quite poor with a record of only 1-4-4 just 11 goals scored, 5 in their only win 5-2 with St. Mirren, so just 6 goals in the other 8 league games at home, and 13 goals conceded by them as well.
This match would be their first Head-To-Head meeting since 2018, where the game ended in a draw 2:2. An interesting fact is that in their last 5 games played both teams have scored. These two teams are playing in a similar form with both of them having 2 wins in their last 6 games. The bookmakers have listed Fulham as a giant favourite in this match, which is something I can’t completely agree with. The odds for them winning this game are pretty low at this point.
English Premier League. Team Man Utd will play with team Watford. Hosts did 3 wins and 2 draws at last 5 matches played. Their shape is not bad. Today Man Utd will play without some players like Pogba, Rashford and Tuanzebe. Guests did 3 draw games at last 5 matches played. Their shape is not well. But statistics says that Watford won h2h match with Man Utd. Hosts played midweek game in Europe League. Also team Watford need points. They have 19 place in red zone. My bet will be on guests with AH +0.5. They have a big chance and motivation to get points today .
The hosts dominated possession and carved out several opportunities to score but were eventually punished by their more incisive opponents. Christian Benteke, a threat throughout for Roy Hodgson's side, created Ayew's winning goal against the run of play. The Belgian forward turned away from a home defender to find his strike partner with a clever reverse pass, Ayew converting with a low shot under Brighton goalkeeper Mat Ryan.
There doesn’t look a huge amount to pick from between Salford and Walsall with their stats looking about the same across the board and with Walsall having a slight bit of form in recent weeks, we’re backing them to pick up at least a point from this game. The double chance on Walsall means a draw or win for the visitors will give us a win and we think they will deliver with Salford looking a little out of sorts in recent weeks.

I've told Sunny already what he needs to do for next year - lose some more weight and get fitter," says Jarnail. In my opinion, he can manage anybody with the work that he's done and his life experiences. But he has to build on his movement, positioning and fitness because that to me is the key. Sunny adds: "I remember a picture of when I did my first National League game with Bhups - you should see the picture and how heavy I was.
Having come through a pulsating end-to-end draw with Valencia in mid-week, Lampard might have feared an energy-sapping fallout from his team's rigorous test in Spain, however, luckily for Chelsea, they probably won't have to be fully firing on all cylinders to see off a dreadfully out of form West Ham outfit this weekend.

Adelaide United lost their opening two games of the season but since then they’ve improved massively, winning five of six games with the only blemish on their record being a 2-1 loss to Wellington Phoenix. The side look good going forward but their defensive record could do with a little improvement with just one clean sheet this season.
The resolution also proposed giving the SPFL board the option to curtail the Premiership if it deems the 49 outstanding fixtures cannot be played. Dundee had submitted a no vote which the league initially said was never received, before changing to a yes. Had Dundee voted no, the resolution would not have passed. Dundee United, Raith Rovers and Cove Rangers were declared winners of the second, third and fourth tiers while Partick Thistle, Stranraer and Brechin City finished bottom of those divisions.
It will be exactly the same in 2020. Barca had no complaints with the officiating in the 'Clasico' but furiously protested two decisions in their 2-2 draw at Real Sociedad in their previous game, including issuing an official complaint to Spanish soccer federation president Luis Rubiales. There are endless debates in football, pre-match discussions, post-match shows, newspaper columns to fill and people always have something to say," he added "It's normal that people talk about referee's decisions a lot but we cannot fix it, controversy will always exist, and everyone can interpret decisions however they like.
There was a long wait as VAR Graham Scott consulted the footage and the goal was ruled out. It was another blow for Leicester and Rodgers, who felt his side were denied a penalty for handball against Manchester City last week. We are disappointed with our goal being ruled out," Rodgers said. We felt it was very, very harsh. It was unintentional but it hits their player's arm and drops on to Kelechi's.
Manchester City’s Ilkay Gundogan says they "have to be ready" to show they are “top players and a top club” when football resumes. City have 10 games to play in the Premier League but were 25 points behind leaders Liverpool when the season was suspended because of the coronavirus pandemic. However, they hold a 2-1 lead from the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie against Real Madrid, and had reached the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.
MONDAY’S BIG HEADLINES #TaintedTitle - do yourself a favour and log off Twitter is a cesspit out of which horrendous opinions are cultivated. Stick a terrible opinion out there and one like represents validation. Empowered by said validation, here starts a vicious cycle of terrible opinions that culminates in typing the hashtag #TaintedTitle into a micro blogging site and attaching some nonsense to that hashtag along the lines of the Premier League title race is being swung in the favour of Liverpool by some sort of refereeing Illuminati that, given the evidence, didn't give a toss about swinging the title in Liverpool's favour for the last 30 years.
Kane (Tottenham) T. Pukki (Norwich) R. Sterling (Manchester City) 8 C. Wood (Burnley) 10 9 Richarlison (Everton) 9 Gabriel Jesus (Manchester City) A. LONDON, Feb 17 (Reuters) - Headed goals from Anthony Martial and Harry Maguire earned Manchester United a 2-0 win at Chelsea on Monday, putting them back in the hunt for a top-four Premier League finish.
The options for the clubs are limited, however -- unilateral imposition of pay-cuts runs the risk of players suing clubs at some stage for breach of contract and even becoming free agents. There appears to be more willingness from the players to accept wage deferrals but, union sources say they would need to see financial information from clubs and guarantees that the withheld wages would be made up later.
Aguero's prospective lay-off. He has a tendon problem in front - will be a few games out. He added: "We will miss Sergio. We have had some problems with injuries but we will wait for him and meanwhile we have [Gabriel Jesus] and [Raheem] Sterling who can play in that position. We will live without him for a while.

If nothing else, you know they would be decent at the back and make it hard for teams to beat them - but at Tottenham that simply hasn’t been the case. They have conceded 38 goals in his 26 games in charge and looked vulnerable throughout tonight. Despite having three centre-halves on the pitch, they were always susceptible to the counter, and things were even worse in possession as Spurs rarely looked to have a coherent plan of how they wanted to attack.
He also has great ability in terms of end product, scoring many goals and delivering many assists. Norwich are six points from safety with nine games remaining of the current season, which is suspended indefinitely because of the coronavirus pandemicBorn in Serbia, Sinani started his senior playing career at Racing FC Union Luxembourg in 2014, before joining his current club in 2017. Sinani has Europa League experience with F91 Dudelange, the 15-time champions of Luxembourg, and has scored 14 goals in 16 league games for his club this season.
Granada fc will go head to head with Villarreal fc in Spain La liga Santander this evening., their last head to head game have ended with each team scores four goals and the total number of goals reach eight goals so here I think the best prediction is to choose number of goals as it is difficult to know actual winner.
Obviously, Benfica have the much stronger of the two squads but also have a Champions League tie following this match and will be expected to heavily rotate their squad for the trip to Vizela. Vizela have scored in five of their last six matches but have only managed to keep one clean sheet during that period, while both teams have scored in three of Benfica’s last six games in all competitions.

Unlike other V-League teams, SLNA only practiced vegetarianism in the last period. Therefore, NHM has the right to doubt the performance of the Nghe team when Vietnamese football officially returns after isolation. Specifically, teachers and coach Ngo Quang Truong will have the match in the first round of Vietnam National Cup.
We’re confident that over 2.5 goals will be produced in Sunday’s match and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-1 in favour of RKC. The hosts sit bottom of the table and have only won one of their opening thirteen matches this season but Emmen have lost all of their away games so far and after winning their last home game RKC are bound to head into the match with much more belief than before and w think this will see the hosts edge the game 2-1.
While the pair are level in the table this season, recent campaigns have pointed to a clear winner in meetings between the two. Derby County are unbeaten in their last six home matches against QPR (W5 D1), winning the last five in a row. Their last home defeat against the R's came back in October 2009, losing 2-4.
DOHA, Dec 8 (Reuters) - Bahrain clinched the Arabian Gulf Cup title for the first time with a 1-0 victory over Saudi Arabia in the final on Sunday.

Nketiah added a second in the 51st minute after good work from Reiss Nelson down the right. Sokratis Papastathopoulos of Arsenal celebrates after scoring his team's first goal during the FA Cup Fifth Round match between Portsmouth FC and Arsenal FC at Fratton ParkGetty Images That seemed to knock the stuffing out of Portsmouth, who were left chasing the ball for the rest of the second half as a much-improved Arsenal dominated possession.
Ebbsfleet has good results in their recent away games winning 3 away games in a row before their most recent away game at Stockport which ended in just a 1-1 draw in the end, but they won here with no less than 3-0 last season on their last visit here at Barnet, so it is understandable why odds of 3.60 for the away win are dropping at this moment just that the guests have drawn many games lately so I prefer to take double chance on them here.
I will not coach] before that. Massimiliano AllegriGetty Images Paper Round’s view: Allegri must be confident of his standing in the game if he is willing to wait until next summer rather than ignore the chance of joining up with one of the biggest clubs in the world. There is a rumour that he is willing to wait so that he can take over at Manchester United, but he could also be considered for the Real Madrid job if Zinedine Zidane departs.
I thought here about away win at first glance since Khimki start this season in style winning all games so far. Still, home side Aldo have ambitions for next round and since this Khimki series must come to the end somewhere, I still pick up here bet on goals. As I said up in text, Khimki manage to score 15 goals at last 3 games and Against Torpedo Moscow scored 5 goals, against Tambov 7-0 and Tom Tomsk 3-0. So they are really on fire. If they win they will score 3 goals as well. So over 2.5 goals look like safer option for me.
We’re confident that both teams will score on Monday night and that over 2.5 goals will be produced in the process and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-1 in favour of Ajax Jong. The visitors are the clear form favourites, have outplayed PSV Jong in all departments so far this season, and already have a win against their arch-rivals this season. Both teams have been scoring and conceding goals on a regular basis and we expect that trend to continue on Monday night.

Manchester City haven't quite assured themselves of qualification from Group C but a point here will be enough for them to book their place in the knockout stages. They were enjoying a perfect campaign until the last game week when they had a bit of a meltdown, drawing 1-1 against Atalanta and finishing the game with defender, Kyle Walker, in goal after a red card for Claudio Bravo.
THURSDAY’S BIG STORIES On your marks, get set … Sancho! Just as films are teased with trailers and, er, teasers, so transfer sagas are now announced several months in advance. It’s a kindness, really. They’re just letting you know that you’ll need to devote a certain amount of the summer to thinking: where should Jadon Sancho go? And also: how much?! Manchester United are apparently interested, because of course they are.

Paper Round's view: There's no denying that Harvey Elliot is top prospect. He is only 16 years old. Sixteen. And he's already getting a new contract at the Premier League leaders after impressing one of the best managers in world football. Securing his signature last summer was a real coup for Liverpool, but tying him down to a new contract shows what their transfer policy is all about.
Three points against Ross County would have taken them above Kilmarnock and into seventh. It would have meant they were level on points with Hibs in sixth and just four points off Livingston in fifth. Quite a turnaround for a side who were bottom of the table just a few months ago. Billy McKay's late equaliser doesn't change that a great deal, but it will hurt Wright that dropping those two points in Dingwall was entirely of their own doing.

However, others see it as an inescapable fact that finance generated by the elite drives the game, through the transfer market and more valuable competitions. The complete severing of matchday income is the big scare at the moment as these revenues have simply been switched off," said Charlie Marshall, chief executive of the European Clubs' Association. This is financially devastating for all clubs - particularly those who rely more proportionately on sheer numbers of fans.
Odds are fine for the over 2.5 goals in this one as in fact the hosts are 3rd placed in the league standings this so far with 40 points behind the top two teams Copenhagen and Midtjylland and there is little chance they can get close to those two but if they keep hold of this 2nd place they would be playing in the Europa League next season which would be quite an achievement as not long ago they were fighting for promotion in the 2nd league level, now they are a solid first league side.
In that time, they have faced Jeonbuk on seven occasions, failing to win any. The sample size of data is small this early in the season so it's worth looking at last season's results for an indication of how this could go. Seoul finished third in the championship round of the season with a decent home record of eight wins, six draws and five defeats.
The Turin club, whose under-23 team play in Serie C, said it was a precautionary measure and they were in constant contact with health authorities.

They have Rafael Nadal in good form and he doesn't seem to have any injury problems to hinder him. Spain won both of their group matches with a 2-1 win over Russia and 3-0 defeat of Japan. The only match lost was when Roberto Bautista Agut lost to Andrey Rublev in the first game of their match against Russia.
A wonderful winning goal from substitute Paulo Dybala sent Juventus back to the top of Serie A with a 2-0 win over title rivals Inter Milan at an empty Allianz Stadium on Sunday.
