Pique has been questioned for travelling to Madrid each day to attend the first edition of the tournament his Kosmos company has transformed, with newspaper Sport saying his role as figurehead was incompatible with his job as a Barca player. I had a friendly conversation with the coach about my plans and how we were going to manage it, I have a phenomenal relationship with the coach and with the club, all this noise is coming from outside," Pique told reporters.
City have 38 points from 18 games having played one match more than Juergen Klopp's side, who won the Club World Cup in Doha on Saturday. When a team has 16 (league) victories from 17, it's unrealistic to think we're going to chase them," he added. It's unrealistic right now. We have to try to win our games, secure Champions League for next season and then you never know.
the Northampton fc team and the Derby County fc, meet in England FA cup. The Northampton fc team is in 6th position with 46 points Collected (England league two). While the guest team the Derby County fc team came in 16th place by collecting 37 points.
Following surgery on a ruptured hamstring tendon, Jose Mourinho has said he is considering Kane will be back for just the final two games of the Premier League season, but is not sure that the 26-year-old forward will definitely be back by then. Paper Round’s view: England face a struggle as both Kane and Marcus Rashford deal with serious fitness setbacks ahead of the tournament this summer.
We’re confident that both teams will score on Sunday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-2. Both teams are playing well at this moment in time and the hosts have surprised many with their turnaround in form. Both teams play a style of football that leaves spaces in behind for the opposition and that should make for a very entertaining and competitive ninety minutes this Sunday.
Mourinho comes up against his former club Manchester United on Sunday. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side are on a high after their derby win over Manchester City last weekend moved them up to fifth, just three points off Chelsea, extending their unbeaten run in all competitions to 10 games. Frank Lampard's Chelsea are away to struggling Aston Villa on Saturday.
Their away form improved too with five points from their last three games, after seven successive defeats. They have a lot of work to do during the summer if their dreams of European football are ever going to come true. Survival is good enough at present though. Keeping clean sheets isn't their strongest asset.
Albacete will host Huesca for this fixture of the league. I think, the hosts have a very difficult task in this game. Nevertheless, Albacete have a chance to get a positive result. Albacete want to win at all costs because they are constantly getting closer to the relegation zone. On the other hand Huesca are more ambitious team in this league. However, in last game Huesca lost 1-2 against Mirandes. Perhaps, the visitors are favorites in this match. True, this will not be an easy task. Also, it should be said, Huesca is not very good team away from home. My pick - Albacete to win.
The 4-4 defeat to Liverpool last week was acceptable for Crystal Palace, because there was a big difference in class between them and the opponent. Fans of the home team are also very reassuring, because except for encountering too strong opponents like Liverpool, Crystal Palace is having an impressive series of 4 consecutive victories previously. Looking at the visitors, Burnley is very safe at 11th place, behind Crystal Palace itself by losing on the sub-index. Burnley has just returned with a minimum victory of 1-0 against Watford, after a 5-5 defeat to Man City 2 rounds ago.
It will be interesting to watch how they respond in their second straight game against the same opponent, at the same venue. In the first leg meeting, the two sides drew 2-2 and before that, they had last met in 2008. Charlton just returned to the second tier for the first time since 2016, and sincerely, they have struggled.
Hapoel Be'er Sheva will host Bnei Yehuda for the Cup. Both teams are teams of the better league in Israel. I believe, the hosts have better team than their opponent. H. Beer Sheva are more ambitious team in their league. However, the hosts are in not very good shape in the last matches. I think, this will not be an easy task for the hosts. Bnei Yehuda is team of the relegation group. However, the visitors are in better shape in recent times. In previous game Bnei Yehuda is won 5-0 against Hapoel Hadera. I expect, this will be tense match. My pick - Bnei Yehuda to win.
Poland's Second Division League has officially resumed after a three-month break from competition due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This is also the time when the season begins to enter the sprint stage, the championship race as well as the relegation is happening extremely attractive and dramatic.

Denmark playmaker Eriksen joined Tottenham from Ajax for £11. August 2013 and was an influential figure in the Pochettino era, but could leave the club on a free transfer at the end of the season and has been linked with Inter Milan in the January transfer window.
The boy has been working hard. He's fit and leaner. He'll bring us a lot. He's important. Solskjaer rued his team's lack of urgency in the game where they dominated possession. The first half it could easily have been my testimonial. And it might have been a better atmosphere at my testimonial. It was subdued, slow, no tempo, urgency," Solskjaer added.
There are people in worse situations than I was in as a kid," Rashford told The Times https://www. They're not even getting that second meal at home, so it's something I wanted to help with. The number of people not being fed is ridiculous. It was close to one million children who were helped every week by FareShare.
Neville made five changes to the starting line-up that edged out the Czech Republic 3-2 last time out, with 19-year-old Manchester City forward Lauren Hemp given her first start. And Hemp was one of few bright sparks for England, almost setting up Jill Scott in the first half with a dangerous flick-on, while Nikita Parris also had a half-chance for the visitors.

Scotland haven't won in Dublin for ten years. The most recent game between the two countries saw Ireland win 27-3. Ireland have won five of their last six games against Scotland in this competition. Ireland have a new coach for this season's Six Nations Championship. Andy Farrell is the new man in charge and he'll hope to get off to a winning start at home to Scotland.
It was strange to see him sitting in Poch's seat wearing the purple. He was relaxed, he was charming and he was witty. He said he was a new and improved Jose. He knows some of the criticism levelled at him like that he doesn't promote youth, so he was very keen to speak about young players and the academy. He knows one of the criticisms is that he spends too much money and of course we know Daniel Levy doesn't do that so he spoke about how this squad is balanced and that the players were a perfect Christmas gift.
I said to them this attitude is not acceptable for me and we have to change immediately. I want to see a different spirit. If I have to be honest, in some games the spirit was really good. Liverpool, Norwich, Leicester. It's difficult to accept for this reason because this team has a fighting spirit. Everton were hit by two well-timed goals from Wolves that took Sunday's game away from them, with Raul Jimenez scoring from the penalty spot before half-time and Leander Dendoncker heading in the second just after the break.
Organisers also postponed two of the biggest running events on the calendar, the marathons in Boston and London, which regularly draw tens of thousands of participants, including some of the world's top athletes.

At 2.30pm on Sunday 24th November the confrontation between the Admira Moedling and the guests of Austria Vienna will take place in the 1st Austrian League. The hosts are in the last place of the league with only 9 points made in 14 matches, they have suffered well. They conceded 33 goals and scored only 14. Guests are on the mid-table, with 20 goals scored in 14 matches in this season and 28 conceded. It could certainly have started over 2.5 due to the ease with which the two teams find their way to the net. I expect goal galore here.
50% of Vitesse’s home games have produced exactly three goals and a majority of VVV’s defeats this season (8) have been by a margin of 2 goals or more while a majority of Vitesse’s wins (5) have been obtained with a margin of 2 goals or more, all of which ties in well with our prediction of a 3-0 home win this weekend.
Smolevichy and Vitebsk have scored and conceded exactly the same number of goals (respectively 1 and 2), so this could be a quite tight game, however Vitebsk has at least been able to win once, while Smolevichy has collected just 1 point in the first 2 games of this League. Smolevichy comes from the lower League and still needs a lot of experience to be competitive here: they have beaten Vitebsk in a friendly game played at the end of January, but they had lost the previous official game by 4-0, so Vitebsk should have the chance to win in this away match in my opinion.
Tirana comes from a loss away in Durres. Also northern team Vllaznia is beaten away in Laçi . Tirana - Vllaznia is famous for their history the oldest derby in Albania or how we know Albanian Derby. Tirana is focused in every game to take maximum and without their fans will be harder to find the goal. Vllaznia like Tirana it's near of the dangerous zone because the last 3 team go in play out for relegation. I think Vllaznia will be happy for every point no matter 1 or 3. So my prediction for this game is under 2.5 goal. Enjoy my tips

On that occasion Leicester were still bottom in March but won seven and drew one of their last nine games to escape the drop, only for Pearson, who took them up in 2013-14, to be sacked a few weeks later and replaced with Claudio Ranieri who took the Foxes to the title in the following season. The speed of the Watford revival has been more spectacular as they had won only one of their first 17 league games and appeared to be hurtling towards relegation.
