Gareth Bale could feature for Real Madrid for the first time in five games after he was named in their squad for Sunday's match against Osasuna. The Wales forward, 30, has not played for Los Blancos since he came off with an ankle sprain against Unionistas de Salamanca on 22 January. He has since missed games against Real Valladolid, Real Zaragoza, Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad. Bale had been fit for the last three fixtures but was not selected.
Since their victory over Manchester City on 27 December, they have failed to muster more than four shots on target in any game. Wolves have now also conceded first in an unrivalled 15 league games this season, including the past six in a row. And while they huffed and puffed, particularly in the closing stages, a victory against Newcastle would have flattered the hosts, despite their recovery from another sluggish start.
And for the Warm-Up, too. Try as we might, we just couldn’t think of a good set-up for the punchline “Son of a Gunn”. Must be something, but can we find it? No. So we’re just going to drop it without context. Ahem: “Son of a Gunn. There we go. You may now laugh. Payet … Payet! Oh come along now, Dimitri.
Another game in which betting on over goals is not bad option at all but I think main Will win this game at the end cause they are in good shape and their good games get them out of the relegation zone with 3 points more than fortuna and I think they are going to head to the middle of the table and on the other side Freiburg is right now on the middle with 26 points and they are pretty unpredictable team but in this particular game I must favorize Mainz and I surely recommend that to the anyone

Matches between Sutton and Fylde tend to be hotly-contested fixtures. The last three results of their encounters were draws and the two before that saw each club take one victory apiece by the odd goal. We don't see much between them. We predict a draw.
England will be playing in the invitational four-team tournament in the United States, where they will face the USA, Japan and Spain. However, Lionesses manager Phil Neville will be concerned about the fitness of City goalkeeper Ellie Roebuck, who was carried off the field of play deep into second-half stoppage time with what looked a serious ankle injury. The top-flight season is due to resume on 22 March.
If the season gets put back again I can see more of the same. Edwards' fellow midfielder Ulvestad has found the uncertainty of the situation harder to take. The former Burnley player was hoping to be well into the campaign now and match-fit for Champions League qualifiers that normally begin in June. Obviously the health of people matters more but when you don't have a date to look forward to it is mentally frustrating," he said.
And the celebrations may have contributed to Bielsa - famed for favouring continuity in team selection - making wholesale changes at Pride Park. It meant an end to Mateusz Klich's 92-game streak of Championship starts and a first league game out of the side since December 2018 for Jack Harrison, as defensive midfielder Pascal Struijk and winger Poveda made their full debuts. That, coupled with lengthy first-half stoppages for injuries to Derby's Tom Lawrence and Leeds' Gaetano Berardi, resulted in a sometimes disjointed game, but the Yorkshire club still had the better of things throughout and were good value for their victory.
Both teams quite successfully started in the championship in the last round just after a forced break. And “Borussia D” has an interesting calendar in general - first a derby with “Schalke”, then “Wolfsburg”, and “Bavaria” at the finish. On the other hand, the Dortmund players did not notice principled rivals from Gelsenkirchen at all, beating them 4-0. It will be funny if the whole heavy calendar of the former team of Jürgen Klopp goes so easily that it’s not even interesting.
If they get anywhere near the Premier League record of 18 straight wins, set in 2017-18 by Manchester City, or the recent 17-game run by Liverpool, which was ended at Old Trafford in October, then we really will be in title-talk territory. But with successive home games coming up against struggling Everton and Watford then a trip to Villa that is followed by Norwich's visit to the King Power, they look to have a decent chance of extending their fine form.
United had been linked with Bale, with a return to Tottenham also mooted. Paper Round’s view: Think this will end rumours of Bale leaving Real? No chance. It’s just the latest angle in the ongoing saga that is Bale’s future, but the forward will not care one bit. Wales. Golf. Madrid. Nonsense Rumours.

Valladolid's two home victories this term have come on their last two starts at Jose Zorrilla, with comprehensive successes gained against Eibar (2-0) and Mallorca (3-0). Those are evidently solid results against teams just below them in the league table, but it's Pucela's prior 0-0 stalemate against 3rd placed Atletico Madrid that mainly leads us to believe that they can grind something out of this encounter with Sevilla.
But Hull got a couple of good wins at the turn of the year, and they have got plenty of firepower with Jarrod Bowen in their side. Media playback is not supported on this device Solihull Moors 3-4 Rotherham United highlights Reading are the form team in the Championship at the moment, with four straight wins, while Blackpool have gone five games without a win in League One. The Royals are another big, strong, athletic team and they should be able to deal with Blackpool striker Armand Gnanduillet, who can be a threat with his physicality.
Curtis was invited to train with Birmingham age 11 but was put off by the experience and didn't return. At 13, while impressing as a striker with local side Central Ajax in a seven-a-side tournament, he caught the eye of a Manchester United scout and began to travel to the 20-time champions' Carrington academy every school holiday. Curtis was in demand during his teenage yearsWhen Curtis expressed that he didn't yet feel ready to leave his parents and friends to move up to Manchester, an agreement was struck between United and Walsall which allowed the teenager to join the Midlands club's academy, with United retaining an option to take him back north.

WHAT HAALAND LOOKS FOR IN A CLUB For Haaland moving to or choosing a new club is all about timing but also about being self-aware. It’s what Tor Ole is saying that for me timing is everything. Haaland said. You’ve got to time how good you are, how good the club is, the people there, how they take care of you, how they help you evolve.

This probably will be one of the most interesting matches today in Belarusian Premier league and of course, my option here will be goals, but we will see what will happen. So, let's start from Dinamo Brest. This team is actually champion of this country and team who is not started too good new season, but from round to round, they are playing better and better. Same can be said and for motivated BATE Borisov, team who is want to back title in their stadium. I see very fast match today and over is really good option. I will try that.
Vikingur and Skala are very tight in terms of strength. Maybe just a little advantage for Skala which by the way started on the wrong foot this season with a defeat against IF at home 1 x 2. Last season we saw Skala winning here at Vikingur's 1 x 2. It seems though Skala is yet to start the season so maybe they are on the downside in terms of scoring. Vikingur scored 22 goals at home last season and Skala only 17. As for the conceded goals we have 16 and 13 in 13 matches each. I believe in this under
In contrast, their opponents on Saturday Newcastle, have played themselves into their best form of the season in recent weeks and the Magpies came from behind to beat Southampton at St. James' Park on Sunday, scoring an 87th minute winner that is certain to galvanize their new found momentum.
Austin sent Owls keeper Joe Wildsmith the wrong way and slotted into the bottom right-hand corner to end West Brom's 441-minute goal drought and notch his 10th goal of the season in all competitions. The second goal came from a team move, with slick passing and good hold-up play from Callum Robinson setting up a crossing opportunity for left-back Gibbs, who found an unmarked Pereira eight yards out.
In the end, United went through as one of the two best runners-up behind Bayern, with both matches between the teams ending in a draw. Bayern, like United, were aiming to become the first team from one of Europe’s five big leagues to do the Treble. Celtic did so in 1967, Ajax in 1972 and PSV Eindhoven in 1988.

Liverpool did not manage a shot on target against a resilient Atletico side - only the second time the Reds have failed to test an opposing goalkeeper since Klopp joined the club in 2015. I have no problem with the result," added the German, who has never lost a European two-legged tie with Liverpool. I saw so many happy faces at Atletico, but it's not over yet. I'm not sure what we have to be in the second leg.
My husband will say the same thing! It's frustrating. I still get a lot of people saying stuff about VAR. It really irritates me but it is what it is - that's just football. England play the USA in Thursday's SheBelieves Cup match in Orlando (Friday, 00:00 GMT). England also face Spain and Japan in the round-robin event in America this week, travelling to New Jersey and then Texas after their opening match against world champions USA in Florida.

Setien's mini-revolution lasted three games. Following a poor defeat at Valencia, he decided (or, perhaps, was persuaded) that his players could not (or would not) perform with his preferred system. He reverted to a 4-3-3 formation and the team returned to the laboured, plodding, excessively Messi-centric style which had led to Valverde's downfall. The arrival of a new manager had changed little, and Setien appeared to be unable to impose his methods upon a group of players set in their ways.
In Saturday's early kick-off at St James' Park, Jonjo Shelvey's emphatic late strike earned Newcastle a 2-2 draw against Pep Guardiola's City. Kevin de Bruyne's equally brilliant 82nd-minute hit appeared to have salvaged victory after Jetro Willems had cancelled out Raheem Sterling's opener, but Shelvey's equaliser sees Manchester City move above Leicester to second on goals scored. The Foxes can reduce Liverpool's lead to eight points when they host Everton on Sunday (16:30 GMT).

They were going constantly to the petrol station and we drove with one tank. I'm not sure if Diego Simeone saw a lot of the game because he was continually animating the crowd. We know our fans will be there'Scottish left-back Andrew Robertson said Atletico celebrated "as if they'd won the tie" and that his team would produce a better display in the second leg. We gave them the best possible start and that gets the fans behind them and then they start falling over and getting under the skin a bit," he said.
Steph Houghton, Ellen White, Lauren Hemp, Georgia Stanway and Pauline Bremer all got their names on the scoresheet, with Houghton's indirect free-kick a real collector's item. Having been largely forgotten about in conversations about title favourites, City's claim must surely now be taken seriously.
Pontevedra will play against Internacional Madrid CF in the Spain segunda division and the home side favorite to win here. So far in this season they have 9 wins and 1 draw and 8 losses. They also have won the last 2 of 3 games and are fighting for a place in the playoffs. So the host is in good shape and play well and will go for 3 points. The visitors have 27 points, do not play badly, and have not lost in the last 3 rounds, but I think that they will lose today. I expect a home win
My job is to find solutions that give us long-term success. I have to identify why we go from Braga's performance to 72 hours later not doing justice - but that is an exciting challenge for me.

That being said, they still find themselves flying high in 3rd position in the Premier League and have a massive 11 point cushion before dropping out of the top four. Additionally, two of their three recent defeats came at the hands of Liverpool and Manchester City, so they’re still a very capable team.
He took over with Flamengo in third place and eight points off the lead after 10 rounds. Five months later, they ended the season with a 16-point cushion over second-placed Santos and conquered the South American version of the Champions League with a dramatic 2-1 win over Argentina's River Plate. How did this all happen? Gabriel Barbosa has netted 25 goals in 29 games for Flamengo in the league this yearFlamengo play a brand of attacking football that Brazilians have not seen at domestic level for some time.

Premier League clubs face a £1bn reduction in their revenues in 2019-20 because of the coronavirus pandemic, says financial services firm Deloitte.

That match was also between Chelsea and Arsenal, with the Gunners winning 2-1. A significant part of the cup final appointment is the opportunity to share this - the English refereeing pinnacle - with partners, family, friends and those who have been an important part of their long journey to the final," said FA referees’ committee chairman David Elleray. Sadly, this year’s final will be very different and will be held without all these elements in an empty stadium.
