They ended up winning the Dutch double. He managed Go Ahead Eagles, Bayern Munich's reserve team and Utrecht before joining Ajax - where he has an impressive win rate of 75% - in December 2017.

As such, we're more than happy to back Boca to to win the game with maximum confidence and feel it's the best way to play as far as the betting is concerned. Boca are unbeaten in 4 home games against Argentinos and in good form of late as hosts, we fancy them to claim a comfortable 2-0 win.
Chrudim pretty much lost all hope about a possible top 3 finish by losing last round with 2-1 away at Vlasim and they did have some scoring chances at 1-1 to take the lead but in the end they were on the losing end. Still at home not that they have defended that well either because they drew 2-2 with Hradec Kralove who can be quite toothless in attack in their away games, and also won 4-3 with Jihlava, but still very good attack to score so many goals in home games against teams fighting for promotion at this stage.

The pattern has continued this season. Twice in 2019-20 the Clarets have lost three games in a row, but each time they have responded with successive victories. They have just taken 13 points from a possible 15, having lost four in a row before that. For every winner in football, though, there is a loser and as Burnley edged further up the table, Saturday's result plunged Bournemouth further into trouble.
Vardy is two ahead of his nearest rival - Southampton forward Danny Ings - in the race of the Premier League's Golden Boot. He also recently passed a century of top-flight goals - with 103 scored in 210 appearances. He's a very serious guy," Rodgers said. I think everyone thinks of him as this fun guy, dressed up as Spiderman and everything else. But you don't become a top-level striker by not being super professional.
Facing relegation from their current 18th-place position, Bournemouth are level on points with the two teams above them and will be hopeful that they have the means of escaping the drop. Palace, meanwhile, are 12 points ahead of the Cherries in 11th place, a distance that should assure them of their safety.

Getty Images Eurosport Norway commentator Kenneth Fredheim touched on this during the interview saying to Haaland “One thing I want to ask Erling about. I have been a commentator at many Premier League games when your father, Alfie, played and also Solskjaer, and the thing with Ole was that he was a good goalscorer and an ice cold finisher.

Port Vale chair Carol Shanahan says she "came away shaking" after voting to end the League Two season despite the club being one point outside the play-offs. The English Football League said clubs "unanimously indicated" a wish to end the season via a "framework" including tables decided on points per game. Vale are eighth in League Two and would miss out on any potential play-offs. It wasn't an easy thing to do.
Shakhtar Donetsk have one clean sheet in five away Europa League matches. Wolfsburg have four straight wins in the Europa League. Wolfsburg are unbeaten in their last eight matches. Shakhtar have conceded eight goals in their last four matches. Shakhtar have failed to score in just one of the last six matches.
When you make the step up you realise straight away that the standard is a lot better and where I am used to scoring 30 or more goals per season, I realise that is not realistic now. We have proved that we are more than capable of competing at this level and we have the players that can do that too so it's just about learning more about each other.
Ultimately, whilst there's no pressure on the game for either team, we fully expect Sevilla to win it. Man for man, they are stronger in all areas of the pitch compared to APOEL and though the GSP Stadium can be a tough place to visit, the away side should be able to step up to the challenge.
England captain Harry Kane says the Premier League season should be scrapped if it cannot be completed by the end of June. All elite football in England is suspended until at least 30 April because of the coronavirus pandemic. I know the Premier League will do everything it can to finish the season," said Tottenham striker Kane. There needs to be a point where enough is enough. Probably the limit for me is the end of June.
Fabregas left Arsenal for Barcelona in 2011 after eight years in north London, and it was thought that, having expressed his desire to return to England, a reunion with the Gunners was on the cards three years later. However, Arsenal failed to exercise the World Cup winner’s buy-back clause, leaving Fabregas with a choice between Chelsea and a move to Manchester, but it was Mourinho's words that made all the difference.

Desportivo Aves are in really tough situation and after all it looks like they are going back to segunda. They are in really though situation. Today they will be without Andrej Simunec, Luiz Maximiliano and Ruben Macedo and like that wasn't enough their first goal keeper Quentin Bernadeun and their main goal scorer Wellington Junior left the team.Belenenses on the other hand it looks like will save the season but they still need some few points to secure that. After a bad start they now improved their performances and are in great shape so. Under all circumstances the odd is just too good not to be bet on

Last season, Energetik BGU ranked only 12th in the league and 3 points more than the red light group. Therefore, the owner of the RTsOP-BGU team only aims to relegate in the Belarusian National League 2020. But after the first 3 matches of this season, coach Belyavskiy's team has surprised the whole tournament.
Well, Juve is not so dominant like last season's. At all. Although they have great attacking line with Ronaldo, Dybala and Higuain they don't score much goals. They think more about own goal and create just few chances per game. Still, I can see tonight class difference between them and Lyon and off course in Juve favor. I will caution here with goals and will take just over 2 goals as this can be very hard game with great battle in the middle of ground without much shoots on goal at both sides. Still can see at least two goals in this one.
Freiburg have been a surprise contender for the Bundesliga's European qualification places throughout the start of the season. Their early season form has put them in a favourable position going into the Bundesliga's winter break.

A real one! An actual player! Happy days. Bruno Fernandes is heading over from Sporting, and will be competing for a space in United’s midfield, and … … well, he may not have to do much competing, to be honest. But Fred will be glad of the company. Assuming he gets through his medical and the two parties can negotiate a contract.
Watford's revival continued as they took their points tally in new manager Nigel Pearson's seven games in charge to 14, although Troy Deeney missed a penalty in their 0-0 home draw with Tottenham Hotspur who have stalled under Jose Mourinho.

Unsurprisingly then, Crystal Palace's matches are routinely low scoring affairs – in fact, under 2.5 goals were registered in 10 of their 15 league games in 2019/20, and in five of their most recent seven outings since early October.
His all-round game has been the glue to the vast majority of Chelsea's performances this season. If he doesn't play well, neither do Chelsea. If Willian does leave the club at the end of the season I will be very eager to see who in their ranks will replace him. Did you know? Willian is the first Chelsea player to score a penalty in three consecutive Premier League games and the sixth different player to do it in the competition.

Solskjaer needs helpIn his pre-match press conference, Solskjaer had dismissed as "lies" suggestions he had told his players he would be sacked if United lost against Tottenham, and again at Manchester City on Saturday. The word remains from United that the Norwegian is under no immediate danger of losing his job amid an acceptance from those in senior positions that there will be bumps in the road this season.
Video - Could isolation camps help finish Premier League season?05:41 "We are aware of the public sentiment that the players should pay non-playing staff's salaries. However, our current position is that – as businesses - if clubs can afford to pay their players and staff, they should," it said. It said that players did not want to see club staff furloughed unfairly and that "any use of the government's support schemes without genuine financial need is detrimental to the wider society.

Ancelotti was sacked by Napoli earlier this month, despite guiding them into the knockout stages of this season's Champions League. It is true I managed top clubs," he said, "At Paris St-Germain the project was really good. I think here is the same. I went to the training ground yesterday. It is fantastic. The fact the club wants to build a stadium means they have a clear idea of how they want success.
Gorodeja did not have the best start to this season, playing first away from home at Vitebsk they scored an own goal in the 20 minute of that encounter and even though by half-time one of their opponents got a red card they failed to score in the second half. Second game they were totally dominated at home by Soligorsk who missed a penalty kick in the first half and overall the defense of Gorodeja looked very shakey as they did concede 2 goals in the second half and if there was more time left they would have conceded more.
Football in England is suspended until at least April 30. Mikel Arteta - FC ArsenalGetty Images Paper Round’s view: Other coaches quoted have a similar opinion, but players are already being asked to keep fit at home, and presumably they are not able to go out partying and lose too much of their physical edge.
Whatever shape Leicester play in, they will be trying to get Maddison on the ball, high up the pitch, and the Brazilian would usually have been the man directly trying to stop him in those areas. With Fabinho out injured, Liverpool do not have an out-and-out holding midfielder to protect their back four. Georgino Wijnaldum has played there too but he has missed their Club World Cup games with a hamstring problem, so Jordan Henderson is most likely to fill in again, like he did against Flamengo at the weekend.
There have been issues for these two sides this term, with the pair each showing some vulnerabilities in defence. Meanwhile, the pair clash with little resembling a winning mentality between them. Leece are winless and home and Udinese have won one trip all season, so who will take the points here?
But all that means Liverpool should leak goals down his side, and they don’t. So he must be doing something right going backwards, too. In fact, you could probably argue that Alexander-Arnold is Liverpool’s most essential player. Perhaps Van Dijk or Alisson are more important when it comes to getting results.
Hellas Verona fc is here to host Lecce fc on Sunday. To my own view I see that the hosts are strong as they drew their last game against Bologna fc which ended with 1-1 scoreline and the visitors also shared the spoil when they host Inter Milan and that game ended with 1-1 scoreline. Their head to head encounter the hosts have won last with a margin of one goal so I think there will be few goals from this game as both last games produced under three goals so there is a great chance of less goals.
Progresso will host Correggese for this fixture of the league. I believe, the visitors have better team than their opponent. Correggese are more ambitious team in this season. Visitors probably will try to make a positive result. However, this will not be an easy task. I expect, the hosts will try to provide a strong resistance. Also, we have Progresso who's is very average team in this league. However, Progresso is really better team at home. In any case, the hosts will try to capitalize advantage on their pitch. In any case, I expect, this will be a very tense match. My pick - Correggese to win.
