Leeds are now stepping up their attacking approach, having scored twice or more in seven of their last eight matches. They come into this one having hit two or more goals in each of their last four, scoring 11 times in those matches. We expect them to continue that scoring record against a Fulham side who have failed to beat any of the top eight.
All in all it was a good night for the Basque clubs against the Liga giants, and this year’s Copa del Rey winner will now be one of: Granada, Real Sociedad, Athletic Bilbao or surprise package Mirandes. Open that window Yesterday the Premier League unsurprisingly voted to remove the competitive disadvantage they placed on their own clubs in the transfer market by agreeing to realign the transfer window with the rest of Europe.
Burnley have one away win in seven matches. Burnley have scored in nine of their last 11 matches. Tottenham have failed to score in just one of eight home league matches. Burnley have one win over Tottenham in the last 10 meetings. Tottenham are unbeaten in five home league matches. Tottenham Hotspur will be playing their third home match in four outings when they host Burnley in the 16th round of matches this Saturday.
The visitors will understandably fancy their chances against a Watford side who are yet to win at Vicarage Road this season, and who’s last Premier League win at home came all the way back at the start of April. For this reason, these odds for a Burnley Win or Draw Double Chance look an attractive proposition.
The game at the Stadio Ennio Tardini was set to be the first closed-doors match to be played since the Italian government ordered that all games are played in empty stadiums until April 3 in a bid to control the spread of the disease. Yet Minister for Sport Vincenzo Spadafora asked the national soccer association (FIGC) to stop top division Serie A matches after the government ordered a lockdown of large parts of the north of the country, backing a plea for suspension made by the head of the players’ union Damiano Tommasi on Saturday.
The two they didn't win, they drew. Celtic were never close to their best, but they were too good for hard-working Thistle, who had the consolation of that late penalty. Griffiths got a lucky break for the first goal and McGregor got a fortunate deflection for the second and that was the game. They owned most of the contest, their only moment of worry before the penalty being a Miller effort that hit a post when the score was still 1-0.
It may have been unambitious, but it was also accomplished. There was a resilience and authority to Bayern’s defending that was not always evident at the other end, where Johnsen and Schmeichel were very jittery for the first half hour. United were grateful for the majestic Stam, who was a nose ahead of Beckham as their outstanding performer.
It looks to me that FC Lorient will most probably have the majority of the possession and should be able to turn a few of their chances into goals. In contrast, Le Mans FC are also probably going to find it difficult to get shooting opportunities but I do think that it’s more than likely that they will be hitting back at some stage. Therefore, I am anticipating a pretty comfortable 3-1 victory for FC Lorient by the time that the referee blows the final whistle
It's a great measure for us and test for us. We had a really good game at Anfield and we should have come out of that game with a draw. We're playing at home so the intensity of the crowd should help us as well. My message to the fans) would be to be as loud and as proud as possible. The synergy between the players and fans is important.
The highlight is tea, coffee and biscuits at 4pm and then we will have some dinner, but after that I am back in my room, watching Netflix or going to sleep. The main road in and out of Srinagar, which connects Kashmir with the rest of India, is closed, so it has been difficult to get food into the hotel. We were having chicken curry and rice for lunch and dinner every day, but now I am only eating when I feel like it, so it could be toast, boiled eggs or a club sandwich.
As football games are played behind closed doors, football figures contract the disease, and some countries enter lockdown, it is tough to see how far the disruption will go. Paper Round’s view: The coronavirus is a deadly event and there is no sign that it has even reached its peak. The economic damage it can do with its disruption is enormous, but if it is not properly handled then it will do even more damage to humanity.
It revived a few whispers that their season may end as something of an anti-climax as what looked like an assault on several fronts is now down to completing the formalities of their first league title in 30 years. In reality, Liverpool were outstanding until Adrian, deputising for the injured Alisson, opened the door for Atletico when his error led to substitute Marcos Llorente's vital away goal. They had 71% possession and 34 shots - and yet Simeone's side ran out 3-2 winners.
The Basques, who knocked out Barcelona in the quarter-finals, impressed at a raucous San Mames and had two goals disallowed for offside. Inaki Williams had a low shot tipped round the post by Rui Silva and Raul Garcia was narrowly off target, before Iker Muniain put Athletic ahead after 42 minutes. Yeray Alvarez and Ander Capa's strikes were ruled out as Athletic were unable to build on their lead before the second leg in Andalusia on March 5.
This night will be played few games at the program of the tournament for Copa Sudamericana at South America. At this game rivals will be the teams of Sport Huancayo which is from Peru and Argentinos Juniors which is from Argentina.
The Belgian football association (KBVB) said it explained the motivation for the cessation of this season's league campaign on the grounds of public health and economics. It also said it told UEFA they did not agree to an approach that forces leagues to continue their season during the current general health crisis, on pain of being excluded from next season's competitions.
Altyn Asyr won the trophy in Yokary Liga last season and they are again on of the main candidates to win the title. > They started good this season with 2 wins and 3 draws and in the previous round they beat good team Ahal with 2-1 at home. Without any doubt, they will dominate in Turkmenistan football as they are still the one of strongest team in Turkmenistan
Real Sociedad have a very good record with 2 wins in the last 3 matches in La Liga. Including the cup arena, the students of coach Imanol Alguacil have won 6 of the last 7 appearances. Currently, Valencia is ranked 8th in the table with 37 points after 11 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses. Valencia last season finished fourth in the Champions League, this season they are in seventh position after losing in the previous round. Against Valencia, the team is just above them and just over 1 point, Sociedad will surely determine to win to overcome the opponent.
Middlesbrough is slight favorite in this duel against Huddersfield Town, but by my opinion, they will not have an easy job. Huddersfield is above them at standings, have one point more, and better goal difference, they collected seven points from last three rounds, and they definitely coming into this match with strong confidence. On the other side, Middlesbrough had a lot of problems in last round at home ground against last placed Stoke, but at the end they managed to collect three points. Fletcher and Walker will be in attack for host, but they have a long list of injured players. Both sides has weak defense, and the winner will not be know till the final whistle of the referee, probably neither after the last whistle, since I expect a draw result in this duel.
Hello everyone. Yesterday I lose my bet for Fiorentina and today I will try to get some of this game. This is a last game from this week from Italy between Parma and Lecce. Here everyone think this is a easy game for Parma because they are in very good condition and they are more strong from Lecce. But the guest team need points because they are on the bottom of the league and have some risk net year to play in the Ceria B. They have five lose last games and I think is not possible to take three points but draw between this two times is normal.
Both managers, Jose Mourinho from Tottenham and Jurgen Klopp from Liverpool, should be satisfied with one point from this match. The Special One is facing lot of problems - the actual form isn't at desired level, while the key player Harry Kane is out due to an injury. Mourinho is well aware of the fact that draw will be a good result for the Spurs. Klopp, meanwhile, will also be satisfied with one point as Liverpool have 13 points advantage to the second placed Leicester City and 14 points more than the actual champions Manchester City. Plus, Klopp has some injury worries as Fabinho, Naby Keita, Lovren, Matip and Milner are struggling with various injuries.
