League form isn't great either with only two wins in the last five games played, both against sides below them in the table. Home form has seen them win three of their six league games. The only loss was in their last home game when being beaten 1-0 by second placed Istanbul Basaksehir. Six home league games have seen only 11 goals scored and 11 of their 13 league matches this season have had under 2.

Bologna have one of the worst defences in Serie A following a poor stretch of form. The hosts come into this clash having conceded two goals or more in six of their last seven games. While their attacking displays have been strong, there are issues at the back. Their sloppy results have come as a result of poor defensive organisation, allowing over 14 shots on their own goal per game this term.
Well the odd here is just too good to be misses IMO and this is a very good value no doubt. This is a duel between two of the possibly best teams at this league and for sure two teams that are going to fight for promotion until the same and.BOTH teams are so far at very good shape with slightly advantage to the hosts but Vaprus showed that they cannot be underestimated this year. Both teams are similar in quality and don't have much experienced players but they do have some very good and young talented individuals who can make a difference at matches like this.
Two games in four days for Wayne Rooney may be a bit of a stretch and his experience will be vital if Derby are to get a result here. I don’t expect too many goals here and I’m going to to tip a home win and under 2.5 goals in the game.
The FIGC said it received requests from a number of Serie A clubs and they informally took up the matter with FIFA, telling them they were ready to experiment with the use of challenges within a timeframe and process specified by IFAB. IFAB will hold its Annual General Meeting in Belfast on February 29 where subjects such as possible future developments on VAR use and concussion protocols will be discussed.
Seven of Atletico's 13 visits to England have ended as draws (W2 D7 L4), with Los Colchoneros unbeaten in their last four matches there (W1 D3) since that Liverpool defeat in April 2010. On each of the last two occasions Liverpool have lost away from home in the first leg of a Champions League knockout match, they have progressed to the next round - against Chelsea and Barcelona in the semi-finals in 2006-07 and 2018-19.
Neither of these two seems like leading relegation candidates in the summer, but they meet in a vital clash at the bottom of the table on Boxing Day. These two sides are sitting in the bottom six in the Championship ahead of this clash, but can either of the two move further from the drop with three points?
Manchester City, who won the Carabao Cup semi-final 3-2 on aggregate despite losing the second leg 1-0 at Etihad Stadium on Wednesday, did not comment but, as with previous cases of trouble, they will look at CCTV footage of the incidents and take the appropriate action. Away allocations were cut by almost 50% for the two legs of the semi-final after problems at previous Manchester derbies. I have got to stand behind Pep," said United boss Solskjaer.
It was quite astonishing that there was no recognition of what we were beginning to achieve in Scotland. Even the Scottish press dismissed you at the time, but that game changed everything. We changed our lives pretty considerably from the point of view of being recognised as international players. It's like a performer doing the north of England clubs then getting a chance at the London Palladium and then everybody knows you.
Jahn Regensburg's defeat at Heidenheim was only their first defeat in the 6 games after the restart of the league. At home Jahn Regensburg have been in good form since September last year with only 2 defeats in the last 12 2. Bundesliga matches.
It's funny because everyone raves about you when you are with England but then you get back to your club and everyone wants to slate you. As a person, I don't let it affect me. Pickford made an error in Everton's 3-1 win over Crystal Palace on Saturday, letting a tame Christian Benteke shot through his legs but says he was lucky that he was fortunate not to pick up a serious knee injury.
In many cases that’s not the case, it’s a bit of a myth, but what we have to do is protect jobs. We’re doing whatever we can to do that and that’s the priority at the moment for just about every industry in the country, including ours. Premier League and English Football League clubs are set to discuss a collective wage deferral agreement at a meeting with the Professional Footballers’ Association on Wednesday.
Defending against the likes of Liverpool, Napoli and Salzburg, all of whom have no shortage of attacking talent, was never going to be easy, though Hannes Wolf would've probably hoped that his side could put up more than a fight. As 16 goals conceded suggests, the Belgians have been unable to withstand attacking pressure.

But no. We got in at full-time and Fergie went at me for two or three minutes saying 'you are finished, you are out and in the reserves, that is you done'.

He made his Premier League debut against Bournemouth in December, and the rest, as they say, is history. I couldn't be more proud'Liverpool have played 11 games in four competitions since the start of December so Klopp used the FA Cup as an opportunity to make sweeping changes. He brought in nine players who had not featured in the Premier League win over Sheffield United on Thursday. In addition to Jones, 16-year-old Harvey Elliott and 18-year-old Neco Williams were among the starters, with another teenager, Yasser Larouci, coming for the injured James Milner after only nine minutes.
Roma come into this one pushing for the Champions League on two fronts. They want a return to Serie A’s top four, while they must see the Europa League as an option. The winners of this competition get a spot in next season’s Champions League, so Roma may see it as a useful backup – as long as they can make it out of the group. However, their recent record might make that tricky.
Groningen have kept clean sheets in 57% of their home games but Utrecht are yet to keep a clean sheet on the road and 57% of the host’s home games have ended in a win-to-nil and they have scored in all of their home matches so far, which provides even more reason to back a 1-0 win for Groningen this weekend. Groningen average 1.86 points per home game while Utrecht average 1.14 points per away game and with that in mind we believe the hosts will avoid defeat on Sunday.
Free-scoring Atlanta were already 3-0 ahead when they won a freekick around two metres inside the Torino half in the 53rd minute. Two Torino players backed away and Ilicic, seeing Salvatore Sirigu off his line, floated the ball over the startled goalkeeper and into the net. The Slovenian opened the scoring in the 17th minute, scoring from close range after Jose Palomino won and rolled the ball across the face of the goal.
Discover all the play-off fixturesWhy do we know this much already?So much has already been decided because any hosts who qualify need to be placed in the group that their home games are in. So England and Scotland (if they qualify) have been destined to play in the same group since a random draw on 7 December 2017 - likewise Spain and the Republic of Ireland. Because four of the top seeds are hosts, their groups are set in stone - so there were only two groups left that the other two top seeds could go in.

BARCELONA, Jan 12 (Reuters) - Barcelona great Xavi Hernandez has spoken to the club's sporting director Eric Abidal and chief executive Oscar Grau about coaching the team but has not made a decision, a club source told Reuters on Sunday. The source said Xavi, coach of Qatari club Al Sadd, is focused on Friday's Cup final against Al Duhail and has decided against accepting or declining Barca's offer.
Paper Round’s view: This move may be workable. Thibaut Courtois has yet to truly convince in Spain this time around, but it may be tough to get him to move on due to his family commitments - perhaps he could switch back to Atletico if Jan Oblak moves on. As for De Gea, it appears that he is in need of a switch, and United could use the funds of a sale for their squad rebuild.

In the letter, Radford says that, ideally, clubs want to end the campaign no later than 31 July. Clubs believe their players will still be available at that stage because of an additional severance payment that is written into their contracts and paid if they have not been able to find another club. However, of greater concern is the huge costs that will be incurred next season given the increasing likelihood that matches will need to be played behind closed doors until the end of the year.
