Of course, there is still a lot of work to be done for Real Madrid to make their place at the top of La Liga stick. Consistency, or a lack thereof, has been an issue for Zidane’s side and so there will almost certainly be a few more twists and turns between now and the end of the season. Barcelona cannot yet be discounted.
VICTORY CANNOT MASK BARCA'S PROBLEMS Champions Barcelona held on to top spot with a 2-1 win over Leganes but it did not spare Ernesto Valverde's side more criticism after yet another scrappy away performance. Despite fielding three forwards worth a combined 300 million euros ($330. Lionel Messi, Barca seriously lacked inspiration in attack and it took a late, freak goal from Arturo Vidal to earn them the three points.
A number of players who played in the success over Leeds were also at Stamford Bridge and went on the pitch at half-timeLamouchi prediction proves correctBefore the match, Forest boss Sabri Lamouchi predicted his side had "no chance" of winning away at a team fourth in the top flight. Forest only had two efforts at goal in the entire 90 minutes, including only one on target, and watched Chelsea dominate 76% of possession.
The week has gone very well, much better than I had expected. You never know how players are going to respond, but I have been surprised by the attitude they have shown to work and accept the changes that I am proposing. A former journeyman midfielder, Setien has spent most of his coaching career outside the top flight, with his best achievement being when he guided Real Betis to sixth place in La Liga two seasons ago.

You need to be really strong as a referee in this atmosphere. Already in the first 30 minutes three of their players went to the ground, I don't know what for," Klopp told reporters. They got a result, the stadium wasn't here to see sensational football. Atletico were here to squeeze a result out of this game, they got the result and so they are happy and we are not that happy.
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.

Jong AZ and Helmond will face each other in the upcoming match in the Eerste Divisie in Holland. Jong AZ this season have the following results: 4W, 4D and 9L. Meanwhile Helmond have 3W, 5D and 9L.

Wolves have completed their first league double over Manchester City for the first time since 1999-2000 in the second tier, and for the first time in the top-flight since 1960-61. Adama Traore is only the third player to score three goals in a single Premier League season against Guardiola's Manchester City, following Eden Hazard and Jamie Vardy (both in 2016-17). Of all the players with more than one top-flight goal to their name, Traore is the only man ever to have scored more than half of his Premier League goals against the reigning champions.
Slimani had a shot cleared off the line by Arnaud Souquet and Aleksandr Golovin skied the rebound from close range before Monaco's Montenegrin Stevan Jovetic unleashed a pair of piledrivers inches off target. The hosts continued to dominate after Slimani struck as Tiemoue Bakayoko rattled the bar with a fierce shot and substitute Keita Balde misfired woefully wide with the goal at his mercy after a fast break in stoppage time.
My pick for this match I see the home team to win, but I think that will be better to play over 3.5 goals. I think that this match will be very offensive and will end 3:1 for Borussia Dortmund. Both teams are doing well and are in good shape but for this match I see Borussia is better and I think that they may will win this match 3:1. Odd for this pick is 2.64. The home team in the last 5 matches they won 4 matches at home. They are in shape. I think that Borussia will play very well.
Madrid arrives and the team sheet drops. Harry Kane makes a miraculous return from injury to start, Son Heung-min is there too. Lucas Moura? On the bench. It’s been the tale of Moura’s career in England. An also-ran in the conversation of Tottenham’s attack, handed just 24 minutes to salvage the Champions League final despite arriving at the match as the obvious form pick.
I have never heard a word from Abramovich: 'Let's get this ready for a sale,' or something," Buck told The Guardian https://www. Because of the political situation, there are people who think they might want to buy Chelsea at a bargain. We do get inquiries and we really have nothing to say to these people.
Granite suffered two losses in their opening two league games this season so have 0 points so far and have conceded no less than 6 goals losing first with 4-1 away from home at Krumkachy a game which was totally out of their reach already 2-0 down by half-time of the game and barely had a chance or two the entire game, this while second game played by them was at home with newly promoted Arsenal who on opening day lost 3-0 at home with newly promoted Osmyany a really poor result but Arsenal won away at Granite with 2-1 in the end.
Chelsea have only had two Champions League victories this season, and one of them came from Lille's away field trip in the first leg. They are in a bad shape recently. Specifically, in the last 5 matches, Chelsea won only 1 game, the rest they lost 3 games. Their attack is having trouble scoring 6 goals, but losing 9 goals
The Spaniard previously praised both managers in 2018. Arsene always treated me like a son and it was amazing but the closest anyone else has been to him was Jose," said Fabregas. The way he treated me, the way he made me feel, how he let me be a leader of the Chelsea team from day one and believed in me, this was fantastic and will always stay with me.
An end to home advantage? Over 13,000 Borussia Monchengladbach fans paid to have a cardboard cut-out of themselves at Borussia ParkIs there any advantage still to be had when you don't have the support of your fans in the stadium and it's no longer intimidating for the opponents? The last two weeks of the Bundesliga suggest that could be the case. Only three wins have been picked up at home in 22 matches.
Defending champions Rennes visit Saint-Etienne on Thursday, one night after PSG travel to Lyon to decide who will get the other place in the Stade de France grand finale.

Jonathan Ikoné could be the latest player to help fill the club’s coffers. The forward, 21, has struggled to sustain the performance level that drew wide admirers last season but made his debut for the French national team in September and his stock remains high. WHO IS INTERESTED? Lyon were put off by Lille’s excessive asking price over the summer but could be tempted should Lille president Gérard Lopez lower said demands.
San Carlos will host ADR Jicaral for this fixture of the league. I think, both teams have the motivation to get a positive result in this match. ADR Jicaral are more ambitious team in this season. They are currently on the 4th place with 22 points. Also, they have two consecutive victories. No doubt, the visitors have the motivation to continue the winning series. However, ADR Jicaral is not very good team away from home.. San Carlos is very average team in this league. True, they have a chance to reach for one of the top four places in the table. San Carlos are currently on the 7th place with 20 points. So, I expect, this will be tense match for both sides. My pick - draw.
The bold Curtice would call this confidently and with a knowing smile. We do so more hesitantly and in the knowledge that there's a serious amount of politicking going on in the shadows, politicking that will continue until the deadline for votes expires on Friday at 17:00 BST. Previously, Hearts owner Ann Budge said she'd consider legal action if the season was called early and Hearts were relegated.
Four of the last five meetings between the two clubs have produced under 2.5 goals and the last three encounters between the pair have ended in draws with under 2.5 goals being scored on each occasion, so you can start to why we’re backing another low-scoring ninety minutes between the pair this weekend.

Juventus have lost only one of their last 29 Serie A games against Lazio (W22 D6), and only once have they not scored in that run. Meanwhile, Lazio’s last home win against Juventus in Serie A was back in December 2003. The pair have similar records with Lazio unbeaten at home and Juve unbeaten away, each winning five of seven games. However, expect them to share the points this weekend, as we’re backing a 2-2 draw.
This particular game will end levelled. Both games are good with tackling abilities and therefore will have more tackling abilities.

This game shall result levelled at the end of the game. To be more save stake on the overs and you will win.

Unlike in most other competitions, Premier League referees have been told by the PGMOL, which is responsible for match officials in the English game, to use pitchside monitors sparingly, instead relying on what video assistants tell them. The exception is deciding between a yellow or red card. Tottenham Hotspur manager Jose Mourinho told reporters on Tuesday that the system should be renamed VR - Video Referee - because the pitch referee is no longer making the decisions.
Reims may have only stepped back in Ligue 1 football last year but they have quickly asserted themselves as a quality side and should be able to get something out of this game. However, Metz have generally played much better at home with a win and two draws in their last three games therefore we're backing them to get a point here. Metz showed much more fight in their two games before the international break with draws against Lille and Montpellier so we're predicting this one to finish 1-1. Reims have five goals in their last six away games and should be able to put one past this Metz side with just the one clean sheet in their last six games.
I do expect Chris Wilder to make wholesale changes for this tie but his Premier League side should have more than enough quality in depth to withstand any major upset here. I’m going to tip Sheffield United to be winning at both half-time and full-time in this game.

Wolves have the second worst first-half record in the Premier League - managing just 14 goals in opening 45 minutes"Some fans are starting to get a bit greedy. Six years ago we were in League One. After a second season in the Premier League, they want the Champions League. No club has used fewer players than Wolves in the Premier League this season, Nuno sticking with a tight-knit group of 20. Nine have made 30 or more league starts while six - Coady, Dendoncker, Raul Jimenez, Joao Moutinho, Ruben Neves and Rui Patricio - have featured in all 37.
You have to be careful with being too reactionary and (the) ban lifted, defeat at Everton. Just as people at the start of the season were saying 'we've got all these young boys, we don't need any players'. At) a club like Chelsea, it's a balance. You have a strong squad which I believe we have, but you have to look at 'can we strengthen?' And there will be times.
Bayern Munich is the only team that managed to win here at Bochum this season and they won hard with just 3-2 in the cup competition, this while Bochum is very good at scoring goals but they had a bunch of either 2-2 or 3-3 draws in home games earlier this season but won 2 of their last 3 home games in the league lately defeating Aue 2-0 a premier for them to keep a clean sheet at home as well as a 3-1 win with Nurnberg also at home lately.
Thus read the statement as Tottenham sacked Mauricio Pochettino in November. But disappointment is relative. Had Tottenham’s form been extremely disappointing in relation to the rest of Pochettino’s tenure? Perhaps. However, it appears that the Argentine became the victim of his own brilliance. Put simply, Spurs regressed to their mean.
It stinks of panic, doesn't it?" said Jermaine Jenas on BBC Radio 5 Live as news of a possible move for Ighalo broke. It makes no sense to sell Lukaku and say he's surplus to requirement and then be looking at these players. United have been criticised for a lack of direction and planning and this backs that up. You don't feel they know what they want. On the links to King, Jenas added: "My hope is that King goes out there, scores goals and performs to a point that Manchester United cannot ignore him and he can get that dream move back because he is a serious talent.
This club is not just any old employer for me. It’s my passion. I’m happy that I’ll be here for two extra years, and I’ll give everything on and off the pitch. Salihamidzic added: "I’m happy that we’ve reached agreement with Thomas. Thomas is a special player for us, a figurehead for the club and our fans, a leader who shows the way on the pitch and has achieved a lot with FC Bayern.
The atmosphere was great coming here in the bus, with all the ultras singing," said PSG coach Thomas Tuchel. We were all singing together and it was a special atmosphere. Neymar scores as PSG overcome Dortmund in empty stadium Some fans appeared to mock the guidelines given by their governmentSome wore masks - forever associated with this virus which has affected so many events - some lit flares, some set off fireworks and many chanted songs to try to inspire their team playing in front of empty stands.
They have won just two of their last eleven matches with sixteen goals conceded and 13 scored in reply. However, five of their scored goals came in one freak match against Strasbourg, without that it is a rather pale eight in ten games. Much of les Ty'Zefs' misfortune has come on the road this season with them losing each of their last six away days. Brest have created the least chances and conceded the second most chances in Ligue 1 away from home this campaign and that could make good reading for a Toulouse side desperate for a win.
We are in active dialogue with all the relevant people to manage this situation appropriately, and we look forward to getting back to training and playing as soon as medical advice allows. Head of football Raul Sanllehi added: “Mikel and the full first-team squad, players and staff, will be fully supported, and we look forward to getting back to training and playing as soon as medical advice allows.
St Etienne prevailed thanks to a first-half goal by Denis Bouanga to leave Monaco out of both domestic cups and with a remote chance of playing in the Champions League next season. Moreno took over from the sacked Leonardo Jardim during the mid-season break but the new coach has struggled to boost Monaco's confidence despite an encouraging 3-3 draw at Ligue 1 leaders Paris St Germain earlier this month.
Against Crystal Palace he was, once again, Liverpool's biggest threat. He refuses to give any defence a moment's rest. That said, the Senegal international might have had a hat-trick in a game that could have finished 3-3. Instead, Liverpool tightened their grip on that elusive Premier League title - and much of that is down to Mane. Did you know? Sadio Mane has scored more Premier League goals (eight) against Crystal Palace than any other opponent.
Greek side Olympiakos scored late in extra time to seal a 2-1 win at the Emirates and go through on away goals. Arteta is attempting to lift his squad before Monday's FA Cup fifth-round tie at Portsmouth (kick off 19:45). We trained today, we were all very down, frustrated and disappointed," he said.
Celtic agreed to forgo £300,000 to cover that;Those were subject to VAT, were invoiced, and did not need to be repaid - so could not be loans;Around £7m is in the SPFL's accounts and will be released to Premiership clubs when the season is completed;The SPFL could "in principle" have made "individual loans to individual clubs" but it would have been impossible to do so for all 42. They also could not be satisfied that each club would be a "good credit risk" and that other clubs would have been left liable;Rangers' resolution was ineffective because you "cannot force" a board to make loans that may not be in the company's best interests;Conversations were had about voiding the season, which would have left the league "in a right mess"; Two lower-league clubs informally asked for a loan prior to the vote to end the season.
It's clear that she is really settled and is enjoying her football. I love the way she is so relaxed when she plays. Everything she does - her movement and her finishing - is so natural. She is a predator in front of goal but she is more than that because of the way she sees the game and moves. It's remarkable that she has only just turned 24 and is already the all-time leading goalscorer for the Netherlands.
