Both Shanghai Shenhua and Shanghai SIPG were due to play Champions League matches next week in Australia against A-League sides Perth Glory and Sydney FC. Australia's government, however, on Saturday imposed a temporary travel ban on foreign nationals arriving from China. Anyone arriving in Australia from China would be returned to their port of origin or quarantined for 14 days.
He has been training though, I don't know if they are bluffing. It is not the situation they wanted because in the last two seasons he missed a crucial Champions League match and they must want him fully fit. Neymar is great but so are Mbappe & Di Maria' - Dortmund boss'We don't buy superstars, we make them' - how Dortmund develop young talentSimeone's last stand?Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool are looking strong to make it three finals in a row after coming top of Group E and face an Atletico Madrid - runners-up behind Juventus in Group D - at the Wanda Metropolitano, where the Reds lifted the trophy for the sixth time last year.
In recent weeks, Keith Hill's men have really started to get the hang of making their presence felt in the final third, scoring in each of their last four, notching a respectable total of six goals. Make no mistake about it, despite recently making it into the positive in terms of points, Bolton still have an almost unachievable task ahead of them regarding staying up, but if they can continue to score regular goals, then there's no reason as to why they cannot continue the fight for survival until the death.
Peterborough have kept three clean sheets in their last five outings while Bolton have conceded 12 goals in their last six matches. Peterborough have won six of their nine home games this season and Bolton have lost six of their seven away games, with the hosts averaging 2.22 points per home game and the visitors averaging 0.43 points per away game, all of which points towards a home win on Saturday.
BATE come into this game against the defending champions on top of the league, with their opponents eight in the table. BATE made a poor start to the season losing their first two fixtures. It's all gone right for them since then though and their win over FC Slutsk at the weekend was their sixth in seven league matches.
Adelaide United got off to a poor start to the season, losing their opening two games but an FFA Cup Final win seemed to turn things around for The Reds, as they have won their last four games and put themselves in contention to be considered as one of the favourites for the Premiers Plate.

As an alternative to the league's proposal, Rangers had put forward the plan of prize money for final placings being released now, with no leagues declared. Rangers said they "sought assistance from the SPFL executive on several occasions" on Thursday but received no reply before being told on Friday morning it was deemed "not competent" by the governing body's legal adviser. The SPFL, however, countered: "Only at 10.

And they might even have won by more, as substitute Lee Gregory should have done better with a softly hit angled shot from 10 yards - and Bruno Martins Indi made home keeper Sam Johnstone go full length to save. Albion's third defeat of the season leaves them still just a point clear of second-placed Leeds - and only five clear of the chasing pack now, when at one time the top two looked like they were threatening to run away.
It really has been chalk and cheese when comparing their home and away form as they've scored just two goals in their last four on the road compared to eleven in their last four home games. This could cost them here, especially as they travel to a Bordeaux side with the wind in their sails.
The Bundesliga was only officially given the go-ahead to recommence on 7 May, just nine days before the first fixture kicked off. Eight players picked up injuries in the six games on 16 May - a rate well above normal.

When you are a young player coming in off the bench like Barnes, your main concern is to just stay in the team. There was probably a bit of anxiety before. I cannot reiterate how important playing week-in, week-out is for any player's development. You have to play. And you can never give the manager an excuse not to play you - you have to give him a headache. Barnes is doing that because he's playing well consistently, working hard and contributing to goals.
Gangwon made a solid start to the new season. In own turf, Seoul were clearly defeated 3-1 by Gangwon with their first win of the season after the break, but last week's 0-2 defeat in Sanju was unanticipated.

Since their return to the top flight in the 2016-17 season the Clarets have been frugal with their spending. Their most expensive signings to date remain the £15m they spent on both defender Ben Gibson and striker Wood. The primary thought for a club the size of Burnley is to use their Premier League income to secure their future. Dyche has, as a consequence, been rightly lauded for keeping the Clarets in the division, but the question is for how much longer can the 48-year-old perform miracles? His motivational abilities were tested at Turf Moor as he faced five successive league losses as Burnley boss for the first time.

Ancelotti had been in charge since the beginning of last season and had managed a win percentage of better than 50. But Napoli currently lie seventh in Serie A, a position that were they to remain there until the end of the season would represent their worst league finish in a decade. Gattuso said: "The aim is to recoup points and get back into the Champions League positions.
Edinburgh City and Brechin will face each other in the upcoming match in the League Two. Edinburgh City this season have the following results: 16W, 2D and 6L. Meanwhile Brechin have 4W, 3D and 16L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Albion, meanwhile, now boast the division's best away record with seven wins and just one defeat from 10 games as they became the first side to keep a clean sheet at Deepdale this season. Preston boss Alex Neil told BBC Radio Lancashire:"When it's a last-minute goal you concede, it certainly makes it worse that it's a really contentious decision as well. If it was a little bit of quality from them, it would be more palatable.

I don't even want to talk about David Luiz. Did you know? De Bruyne has been directly involved in more Premier League goals than any other player this season (25: Nine goals and 16 assists). It is also his best goal involvement tally in a single top-flight campaign in England. Fernandes: It was the introduction of Paul Pogba and Marcus Greenwood that changed Manchester United's fortunes against Tottenham but it was Bruno Fernandes who looked the part.
Vaulks had a golden opportunity to extend Cardiff's advantage but he blazed his shot over the bar, and that was to prove costly. Meite had to wait for his customary goal against Cardiff, and it came four minutes before the end of extra time as he connected with a sweet volley from Jordan Obita's cross. If the 120 minutes of open play were nip and tuck, Reading were clear winners in the shootout. Cardiff missed both their first two penalties, Flint's saved by Walker and Vaulks' smashing against the crossbar, while Garath McCleary, Osho and Obita confidently converted the Royals' first three.
There is no advantage at home' Jurgen Klopp celebrates with goalscorer Roberto Firmino at Leicester's King Power StadiumSeveral of Liverpool's games could be held at a neutral venue after Deputy Chief Constable Mark Roberts said up to six matches could be moved at the request of local police forces. Those fixtures include the Merseyside derby as well as Manchester City v Liverpool. Merseyside Police said that "in relation to crime and disorder" it has "no objections" to the game being played at Everton's Goodison Park, and that it would be "ready to provide whatever policing is required of us".
There have been three confirmed cases of COVID-19 infections in Burundi, which along with Belarus, Nicaragua and Tadjikistan continues to sanction league football. The season in Burundi, whose national team last year competed at the Africa Cup of Nations finals for the first time, has only three rounds left to play.
Having looked like being left frustrated, the Canaries got a deserved equaliser on 78 minutes as Josip Drmic bundled in from close range after Vorm has spilled Kenny McLean's drive. At the other end, the hosts could have won it with five minutes of normal time remaining but Serge Aurier saw his low shot cleared off the line by the retreating Ben Godfrey. With no further goals in extra-time, Norwich made it a night to remember.
Teams lower down the league take a more practical, base approach to football - lacking in frills but effective and easy enough to adapt to - but Norwich are an exception. This means the Argentine will be well prepared to the more complex attacking structures that will be in place at the aforementioned teams higher up the table.
An announcement of the first few rounds of fixtures since the campaign was halted by coronavirus on 13 March is expected in the next 24 hours. While each team can make five substitutions, each team will still only have three opportunities to make changes throughout the match in order to minimise disruption to the game. Clubs have also agreed in principle to the use of neutral venues if required, although the vast majority of matches are expected to be played in their usual grounds, barring local spikes in coronavirus cases.

This is a time to sit back and acknowledge achievement and progress and hope. Lazio, Rennes and Cluj; Porto, Feyenoord and Young Boys. Twelve games played against challenging European opposition and only two lost, one a dead rubber when a second-string Celtic lost to the Romanians on Thursday and one a Rangers defeat in Bern that only happened in the 93rd minute. Celtic had their work done early. Lennon was in the most surreal position of being able to rest many of his senior guys for the trip to Cluj and go instead with a supporting cast - a mixture of players trying to rebuild their first-team prospects and youngsters taking their first steps on this stage.
Romanian top league. Team CFR Cluj will host team Univ Craiova. Both teams are leaders in their league. And both clubs are in the top zone. It will be very important game for the first place.

CFR Cluj did 3 wins at the last 3 h2h matches played. And guests are waiting for revenge in our meeting. Odds are so good to check this way !

I remember playing [then non-league] Burton away in 2005," he said. That went to a replay at Old Trafford. We beat them 5-0 but it was a great day out for them. It's a debate we can have but it is not just about the top teams having too many games. It is about romance. It is fantastic for Rochdale to go to Newcastle. Nevertheless, between 1 December and 1 February, when these two sides are due to play each other in the Premier League at Old Trafford, United will have played a minimum of 18 games.
