Beijing Guoan and Shandong Luneng will face each other in the upcoming match in the Super League in China. Beijing Guoan this season have the following results: 22W, 1D and 6L. Meanwhile Shandong Luneng have 15W, 6D and 8L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
He has won 11 major honours during the most successful period in City's history. When you are young, you don't dream about all of this," Silva said. You [just] dream about becoming a professional and playing in the top flight. Last August, Guardiola described Silva as "one of the best players I've ever seen" - yet even though he earned 125 caps for Spain and helped them to two European Championship titles and the 2010 World Cup, he only won the Premier League's player of the month award once in a decade.
You could argue that Guardiola rested more of his better players than Arteta did, and that is not going to help the Gunners make a dent in City's defence. The last time Arsenal played City in a FA Cup semi-final was 2017, in Pep's first season in Manchester, when the Gunners won in extra-time.

Burnley boss Sean Dyche says a 'White Lives Matter Burnley' banner flown over Etihad Stadium was "a moment nobody wanted" but believes people are becoming "more educated in life". The banner appeared during Manchester City's 5-0 win over Burnley on Monday. Dyche says his captain Ben Mee "spoke fantastically well" in condemning the event following the game. It was my decision to let the captain speak but a number of players wanted to," said Dyche.

honved is team from the middle of the table and on first look on them you could see that they are not team which likes or knows to defend a lot,especially not at home with 5 wins 6 defeats and just 3 draws and especially now when they have nothing to lose or win they are not going to defend, so I expect from them to score a goal but on the other side videoton is better team then them and videoton is still in title race so I surely expect from visitors to score a goal too in this game

This same problem of struggling to cope with attacking sides was seen when they lost 2-1 at Old Trafford earlier this month, and it’s a real problem. However, that problem doesn’t seem so prevalent when they face the smaller clubs in the Premier League.
Can we start again? Chelsea boss Frank James Lampard has the knives out, according to the Sun newspaper, which predicts that Lampard may choose to bin up to EIGHT (8) players in the summer as he pursues a summer rebuild. Goalkeeper Kepa and midfielder Jorginho are marked for the exit, along with Ross Barkley, Willian, Pedro and defender Kurt Zouma, as Chelsea prepare to overhaul the squad.
Initially this was a two-legged affair between the European Cup and Cup Winners' Cup holders of the previous season. Occasionally the Super Cup did not take place at all; Bayern Munich and Liverpool pulled out in 1974 and 1981 respectively, claiming fixture congestion. Now it's an early-season taster for the action to come and has found its place in the European calendar. Winner: 1 pointSince 1956, a total of 172 clubs have reached a European semi-final and so make it to the full list.
Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil has been removed from China's version of the Pro Evolution Soccer 2020 video game following his criticism of China's treatment of Uighur Muslims. Ozil, who is a Muslim, called Uighurs "warriors who resist persecution". He also criticised both China and the silence of Muslims in response. NetEase, which publishes the PES franchise in China, said the former Germany player had been removed from three existing titles in the country.
They carry to the game just one win in the league in the last five matches. However, in their last five matches, across all competitions, Wits have lost just once and managed three clean sheets, with two wins. Though their last win came in the Cup, it was against Chippa United, a PSL side, and in their last game, they drew 0-0 with Chippa United in what was a marked improvement from their 2-0 loss to SuperSport United earlier.
Had any of those sides been scheduled to play in the first weekend of the winter break, they would have had two full weeks off. It's a ridiculous situation," said Bruce.

This season has been an entertaining one for Famalicao, as they lead the way in terms of total goals per game. With over 50 goals scored in their first 14 matches of the season, they are a good side to watch. The home side are aiming to add to their impressive attacking record, which is up there with the league’s elite.
Under 2.5 goals have been scored in four of Belenenses’ and four of Porto’s last six matches. Belenenses have lost three of their five home games in the league and Porto have won four of their six away games in the league, meaning the hosts average 1.20 points per home game and the visitors average 2.17 points per away game, all of which adds weight to our prediction for an away win on Sunday.
They are now at Memphis 901 FC, a club which was formed two years ago and whose co-owners include former Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard. The USL has only managed one round of games this season due to coronavirus, and both Marsh-Brown and Baxter are in lockdown. I saw coming over here as an opportunity to try something different," Marsh-Brown, who moved to Memphis in January, tells BBC Sport. I found out about the move in December, as my agent had a contact who knew Tim Howard.
Vikingur and Skala are very tight in terms of strength. Maybe just a little advantage for Skala which by the way started on the wrong foot this season with a defeat against IF at home 1 x 2. Last season we saw Skala winning here at Vikingur's 1 x 2. It seems though Skala is yet to start the season so maybe they are on the downside in terms of scoring. Vikingur scored 22 goals at home last season and Skala only 17. As for the conceded goals we have 16 and 13 in 13 matches each. I believe in this under
Varazdin have been looking very poor all season with a 3-8-16 record in 27 matches and with 8 goals in 13 home games they have also been the worst scoring home team in the league. Including the friendlies they have lost 10 of the last 13 matches.
It was something of the same old story - although Arteta will surely be aware of what needs fixing when he finally gets down to the serious alterations to the team he inherited.

The referee in real time thought, in his opinion, that the offence didn't warrant a red card. Some might have disagreed with him, including those in Stockley Park, but that's the referee's opinion. Another referee might see the same incident totally differently and he would be entitled to that also. We were told that VAR was there to 'assist' the referee, not overturn his decision. What has taken place, by those pressing the buttons, is bordering on a coup d'etat and Fifa should stop it.
Aubameyang then sealed the victory in the 69th minute as the Gabon international showed excellent technique to turn in Pepe’s dinked cross on the volley on what proved to be a relatively comfortable night for the under-pressure Gunners.

He was a natural salesman, earnest and enthusiastic. And to many of the players he was targeting, he had been a hero. The main reason I went to Newcastle was Kevin Keegan," says Lee, who joined from Charlton in 1992. He was my idol. I was a West Ham fan as a kid but Keegan was the first superstar I had pictures on my wall of. He's got such charisma. If you meet him, I guarantee within 30 minutes he'll have persuaded you this is the place to be.
With Fernandes and Pogba in the side, they suddenly look like a midfield to be taken seriously as opposed to what we saw earlier in the season - a group of soccer adolescents hurriedly thrown together and learning on the job. With a fit Pogba and Fernandes running the show, they no longer need Jack Grealish. The likes of Scott McTominay, Fred and Nemanja Matic are the real support acts. Did you know? Fernandes is the first Mancheser United player to remain unbeaten in his first 10 appearances (all competitions) for the club since Phil Jones in 2011.
Gandzasar is going to face Banants. The hosts won one of two matches played after the break and scored 1 goal. They do not play well in this season and they are struggling to score goals. They scored 21 goals and conceded 26 in 20 matches and that's why I don't expect many goals today. Banants is not the best on away and they scored 12 goals in this season. I think that the visitors are able to win this match but I don't think that we will see open games and more than 2 goals. My bet for this match is under 2.25 goals

In the 'Correct Score' market a 2-0 home win stands out. Dijon have often struggled for goals on the road, so a Nantes clean sheet appeals, especially as they've conceded the second-lowest number of shots on target at home in Ligue 1 this term. Nantes have also scored twice in each of their last two at home and look a good bet to repeat that feat against a relatively weak Dijon back-line.
It was enough for Sarri to quell the doubt that has often been raised about the five-times World Player of the Year: is he worth the trouble of organising the team around him? "Sometimes, Ronaldo creates a small problem because you know you have a champion in the team and it has to be set up around him but at the same time it solves 100 of them," said the chain-smoking coach.
Villarreal and Espanyol will face to face on Sunday afternoon. The home team are run a 5 matches winning streak. They stands in the 9th position and advanced to the next round in the Copa Del Rey. There were more goals in the second half in Villarreal's last 5 games. Espanyol are the last. They win the group in the Europa League, but they cannot copy that performance in the home league. Espanyol are in the big trouble, although they played a draw with Barca (2-2). Espanyol have won just one of their last 5 La Liga away games. I expect a high score game, because every Espanyol match will a life or die situation, moreover the Villarreal scored a lot of goals since December.
Three of those five meetings at this ground have seen the pair draw 1-1. Given their recent struggles in the league of late, we wouldn’t be surprised to see a repeat of that scoreline this week. We’re backing a fourth 1-1 draw of the season for Wednesday in our correct score tip.
He then backed away from the management role before having a spell at Newcastle United. Dalglish was back as Liverpool caretaker manager in January 2011 after Roy Hodgson was sacked. He got the job full-time and even though he was sacked after one full season in 2011-2012, he still won the League Cup and took Liverpool to the FA Cup Final, where they lost to Chelsea.

There are fears that their current downward spiral will continue in this home clash with second-tier opposition. While there will be little credit given to Gattuso if he wins this one, a loss could be a hammer blow early in his reign. The way the hosts are going, this tie seems like a must-win game.
Hello everyone tipsters from this great game. For tomorrow because I have not too many choices I will try to take this game between Dukla Praha Jihlava. This is a very interesting game from Czech Republic. The guest team stay at second place of the league and they will try to attack first place but Dukla are not easy team and I think here the best option is a draw. The home team have not draw last ten games and Ihlava last five games that's why I will get draw here. I don't know too much about the game but this is enough for me.
Ronaldo keeps on scoring and that is good for his state of mind," said Juventus coach Maurizio Sarri. He's in great physical shape and is making the difference. The other forwards also did well and the problem is who to leave out. Fiorentina, who suffered their first defeat in five league games under coach Giuseppe Iachini, could easily have scored first as Federico Chiesa forced Wojciech Szczesny to make a fingertip save and Pol Lirola also tested the Juventus goalkeeper.
It's a big test but we do not mind that. The Blues will be without the injured Callum Hudson-Odoi, while Ross Barkley and Antonio Rudiger have not travelled despite returning to training. Lampard says Rudiger, who has been sidelined since he was substituted in the 5-2 Premier League win at Wolves on 14 September, is still working towards fitness after undergoing surgery on an issue with his pelvis.
They also head to a Roma side who just lost 2-0 at home to Torino. The hosts have had problems at the back all season at the Olimpico, conceding in 89% of their matches here. Torino were the fourth Serie A side to score twice at this ground this term. Juve have scored twice or more in 16 of their last 21 games across Serie A and the Champions League, so we’re backing over 1.5 goals for the visitors in this clash.
Miami team. CHANGED SPORTS LANDSCAPE Beckham shocked the soccer world in 2007 when he signed a five-year contract with the LA Galaxy in a move that energized soccer fans in Southern California and gave MLS a huge boost.

A number of prominent Arsenal supporters' groups say "urgent action" is needed to halt the "alarming and desperate state of things" at the club. In July, they called for owner Stan Kroenke to "reinvigorate" the Gunners. Arsenal are eighth in the Premier League, eight points adrift of a top-four Champions League qualifying spot. It feels like the club is rudderless and floating aimlessly, unsure of its destination," said a statement from the fan groups.
Odds are decent for me to be taking the over 3.5 goals in this one believing in very good chances that we can see both teams scoring and expecting mostly 3 or even more goals scored in this one by the guests just like it happened last season when Avondale was one of the best clubs here in NPL Victoria and even though they failed to win at home with City in just a nil draw when they played here they scored no less than 4 goals also conceding one goal as they won the game with 4-1 in the end.
At home we have to be very strong if we have any chance of finishing in European places,” said the Spaniard. We really want to play at home; that's where we enjoy [playing] more. But obviously, not having the fans is a tremendous disadvantage. Arteta also confirmed that defender William Saliba will sign a loan extension at Saint-Etienne so he can play in the French Cup final against Paris St-Germain on July 24.
Tomkins: This is a player who quietly gets on with the business of defending and seldom gets the limelight or the credit his performances often deserve. The Crystal Palace defender played every minute of the four points gained by his side over the festive period. He was a tremendous influence in their victory over West Ham and scored a brilliant headed goal to earn the Eagles a point away at Southampton.

The time is near for Sampdoria to stay away from the relegation zone. They have had two difficult matches since the restart, with a 2-1 defeat away this month leaving them back only only one point from the drop zone. Returning home was an encouragement to Samp, who had to end their inconsistent records here. Both have very diverse records with each other, leaving this one in balance.
