Atletico Madrid is hosting Deportivo Alaves where I am backing Atletico to take a win by at least two goals, they have won mainly by one goal to nil since the restart but they are facing an awful Alaves here that they should be able to break down in offense and take an easy win
British-Iranian businessman took the helm. After Koeman, Everton steadied the ship with the experienced Sam Allardyce but there was nothing Hollywood about his style of football and the demanding supporters craved another big name. Moshiri had his heart set on Portuguese coach Silva but there was little in the 42-year-old's record that suggested he was capable of pushing the club into the elite.
But then again he really didn't need to bother. When it came to dribbling, pace, power, movement and finishing, Thierry Henry had it all. Henry's brilliance was almost as disorientating for commentators as for opposition defenders, who were often left sat on the turf as he accelerated clear to score and take the acclaim of supporters. A member of the Gunners' 'Invincibles' side, Henry won two Premier Leagues and two FA Cups before heading off to Barcelona and New York, rejoining Arsenal briefly on loan in 2011-12.
The document states that clubs, players and coaches should be encouraged to work together to agree on salary reductions and deferrals. Yet they should consider the alternative, where possible, that agreements between clubs and employees are suspended when teams are not playing or training. It is also recommended that FIFA use its newly-created 'Fund for Professional Players' to help ease any difficulties that clubs are facing.
All of a sudden we've got a new manager, one of the best managers there's been in the game, so automatically you have to turn your head towards that and focus on the game. Harry Kane scored in Mourinho's first game in chargeReuters "We all want to win. We wanted to win when Mauricio was here; we want to win the same now the gaffer's here.
That's left a feeling of disappointment in the camp but they'll be highly motivated to build on such a strong performance and try to secure the bronze medal in Saturday's game. With the final of the Apertura league phase awaiting them when they return home, Monterrey will want to generate some momentum via a win and if they hit the standard they did in midweek, they should stand a good chance
N'Golo Kante has returned to Chelsea training having been allowed to stay away because of coronavirus fears. The France midfielder, 29, took part in the club's first session on 19 May but then decided to train at home, a move supported by Chelsea. However he has now resumed individual training at the club's Cobham base. Kante caused concern among team-mates in 2018 when he fainted after a training session.
Despite a moderate league position, Shrewsbury are a very tough team to face. They rarely dazzle, while they don't score an abundance of goals, but they keep themselves in games and rarely give lots away. At home, the Shrews have won three of their last five at home, beating good sides such as Sunderland, Peterborough and Coventry. Moreover, the only teams to leave New Meadow with victory this term, currently occupy a place in the top eight, which is a far cry from where Lincoln are.
The latest side to try and take points off Colchester on home soil is a Salford City side who have not exactly been making the same sort of waves in the Football League that they managed to make in non-league football. Owned by the “Class of 92”, Salford have attracted plenty of attention, but they have been a solid yet unspectacular sort of team in their first season in the Football League.
Derby between champion of the previous season, and Cup title holder. This could be one tough matchup, on small number of goal chances and goals scored. Rivals are not ready for the competition, since league just begun, without any preparation period. That would affect the offensive play and attacking players the most. Defense could be played without a lot of compacting the line, but if teams want to score goals, they can not just go instant into the competition.

Eindhoven had promotion ambitions but their defense is simply too weak for them to be hoping this season on a play-off place, they have no less than 6 losses in a row on the road at this moment and conceded more than 20 goals in those losses they did score a couple of goals as well but overall their defense would be relegation material if there was a relegation place in this second league but there is no such place.
Strasbourg score an average of 1.78 goals per home game and concede an average of 1.22 goals and Saint-Etienne score an average of 1.11 goals per away game and concede an average of 1.78 goals and with Strasbourg’s home games producing an average of 3.00 total goals and Saint-Etienne’s away games produce an average of 2.89 total goals, we’re expecting at least three goals to be scored in Saturday’s clash.
With the score 1-0 to the Gunners, Arsenal's then clean-shaven striker took exception to a nudge from Nedum Onuoha, jumped up and thrust his face into the QPR defender. Onuoha fell to the floor, referee Martin Atkinson brandished a red card and Giroud walked. Fortunately for boss Arsene Wenger, Arsenal survived a QPR flurry and held on to stay in sixth place.

And while no-one would suggest for one second Lampard would be under instant threat if Chelsea failed to make the top four this season, Abramovich is not the sentimental type when it comes to taking big decisions. This meant manager and players had to respond. They did so by producing a performance much more emphatic than the scoreline suggests.

I always protect my players and I really love my team. With this party I accept that it is a bit difficult to protect the players but the context is not simply black or white. It is a shame because we are giving people the chance to speak badly of us. We need to adapt to the situation but I am not going to leave a player on the bench or at home because they went out and celebrated.
Leicester striker Jamie Vardy has contributed five goals and an assist in his last seven league appearances against Manchester City. Leicester have drawn back-to-back league games, having drawn just one of their previous 22 matches in the competition. Sunday, Feb.

RKC’s matches this season average 3.53 goals while Heerenveen’s games this season average 2.80 goals, but we’re backing four goals to be scored when these two sides clash as neither side has had any trouble finding the back of the net of late. Over 2.5 goals have been produced in 57% of RKC’sand 67% of Heerenveen’s matches this season and we fully believe that over 2.5 goals will be produced this weekend as both teams look confident and concentrate more in attack than they do in defence.
There's just so much uncertainty. The 28-year-old added: "My missus is pregnant and she's due at the start of July, so there's obviously worries there for myself. Every team and player has got different views on it. Some lads have obviously got vulnerable family members or whatever. It's just so difficult to see five or six days in front of us or anything past that. Ultimately it's putting your family at risk that is the main concern and that's the worry I think all the teams will have at this minute in time.
Savage, formerly of Leicester, Blackburn and Derby, has signed for the semi-professional side from the 10th tier of English football eight years after playing his last professional game. The 45-year-old has links to Stockport's owners Pro Football Academy. It's not a PR stunt, it's me trying to help youngsters progress in the game," Savage told the BBC after signing for the North West Counties Football League (NWCFL) First Division South side.
Incheon United was nowhere near good last term, and, surely they are determined to finish higher than last term. They will be eager to grab at least a point from this opening fixture. They also draw the last game against Daegu at home. Daegu finished the last season on 5th spot. The visitors have bigger resolutions in 2020, and it is likely that they will adopt an attacking strategy . I find value on draw. Because These two teams met 18 times so far and 8 games ended sharing spoils. In the opener two teams will try anything but their first priority will be to avoid any loss.

Lincoln slumped to defeat for the second time in quick succession on Boxing Day, as they lost by a goal to nil away at Oxford. As is becoming commonplace, The Imps kept themselves in the game, but they failed to deliver the goods going forward, which inevitably meant that they faltered.
Having looked like play-offs certs not one month ago, Peterborough now find themselves down in 10th position. They're still close to the coveted top six, two points off to be exact, but given where they were, such a position isn't great.
We always play with a team which gives us the best chance to reach the next round. LAMPARD CONFIRMS ABRAHAM WILL MISS TIE Chelsea's progress has been severely dented this season due to a number of injury setbacks and several senior players will be unavailable for Tuesday's FA Cup fifth round clash with Liverpool, manager Frank Lampard said on Monday.
Tanguy Ndombele, it was devastating and brutal. But it also felt like a diversionary tactic after another game Spurs had failed to win. It is now five matches since they last tasted victory, their worst run since the autumn of 2016. Unless they go to Germany and overturn RB Leipzig's one-goal advantage in their Champions League last-16 tie on Tuesday, it will be another campaign without a trophy. It will also be only the third time since 2003 that Tottenham will have ended the season without reaching the quarter-final of a cup competition.
Both Spurs and Southampton have struggled a bit in the past few matches but we believe Spurs will be more confident going to this clash after their win over Manchester City. One factor about this game is the plenty of goals the two sides have been scoring. With the rise Southampton have had lately, disregarding the 4-0 loss to Liverpool, we expect them to push Spurs but with the hosts holding home advantage and straight from a crucial win, we expect the home side to win this. We believe we will see quite some goals here, judging by the returns in attack these sides have had. We will thus go for over 2.5 goals.
And King said fresh investment has been "put on hold" as the club deals with the coronavirus crisis. Johannesburg-based King announced at the club's AGM in November he would be giving up the role and has now done so, according to the Press Association. He admits he almost had a change of heart as the scale of the virus threat became clear. But he has made way for motor group tycoon Park to steer Rangers through the crisis.

Newport average 1.62 points per home game but their guests average 1.85 points per away game, which is why we’re confident Swindon will avoid defeat on Saturday. The hosts score an average of 1.08 goals per home game while the visitors score an average of 1.92 goals on the road, and we have backed a 2-1 win for Swindon this weekend.
Athletic Club should have made a bigger advantage for themselves to take to Granada. They may end up regretting how wasteful they were with the chances they created at San Mames. Yet, despite their superior league form and position, the recent string of defeats to Athletic Club will go against Granada. Don't be surprised to see them get caught on the break by the speed of Inaki Williams. We see this game ending in a hard-fought draw, enough for the visitors to progress to the final.
Senegalese winger Sarr then earned the penalty from which Troy Deeney doubled Watford's lead in the 54th minute, sending De Gea the wrong way and blasting into the net. United, who have failed to build on the momentum from their back-to-back wins over Tottenham Hotspur and champions Manchester City earlier this month, produced yet another limp display and failed to hit the target in the first half.

This is one of the most attractive matches for tonight where my expectations are going to see an entertainment game, full with scoring chances and final outcome to be covered by at least 3 goals in both nets.
It gradually got better," McCarthy said of the performances. I look back at the Gibraltar game, the first game in, an Astroturf pitch, blowing a gale and an airplane taking off at eight o'clock, when we just scraped through. But we did scrape through and I said at the time that the only thing that mattered was the result. We only lost one out of 10, and that was in Switzerland, and they're the best team in the group.
It is the only European league not to be suspended because of coronavirus. While I don’t condone the league continuing during the pandemic, if people are going to keep kicking a football, I’m going to watch it. Except the Nicaraguan league. Even I have my limits. I knew picking a team to follow in the Belarus Premier League would be one of the most important decisions I ever made. It did not feel very BBC to pick a team with a rude name (an FK Slutsk Worldwide Facebook fans page now has almost 6,000 followers) and I’m too much of an underdog to pick Bate Borisov.
Basel won each of their three group-stage matches at home, scoring two or more goals. They have five straight home wins in Europa League and are unbeaten in eight, with six wins. They have four clean sheets in the last six home matches in Europa League. On the other hand, APOEL have just been poor; they have one win and three losses in their last five matches.
