With the season back under way behind closed doors after an interruption caused by the coronavirus pandemic, Chelsea look resurgent. And amid the ghostly silence that now accompanies these big occasions, Lampard's growing maturity as a manager can be heard as well as seen. Barkley winner takes Chelsea into FA Cup last fourAction and reaction from Sunday's FA Cup quarter-final tiesThe 42-year-old, in his first season in top-flight management, could be heard offering words of encouragement and tactical tweaks during a first-half drinks break as Chelsea struggled to cope with Manchester City's early surge at Stamford Bridge on Thursday.
Others sought venues where games could be played, with Coventry and Manchester United travelling to Ireland for friendlies. Some got creative, with Halifax opening their stadium to the public as an ice rink. When the thaw finally arrived in March, teams were faced with a backlog of fixtures. To fit them all in, the league season was extended by a month from its normal end date at the end of April. Finally able to play all their remaining games, Everton would emerge as champions, claiming their first piece of post-war silverware, while Manchester United would claim the FA Cup - their first trophy since the Munich air disaster five years earlier.
Eastern Suburbs Brisbane and Redlands United will face to face in the 6th round in Heath Park. The teams follow each other in the table, both team collected the first victory on the last week and finally left the relegation zone. The teams' matches bring high score, especially the Redlands, which team conceded 8 and 9 goals in the previous games. The home team are favorites, they have got 4 pts after first 4 matchday, while the away team conceded the most goals and have the worst defense in the league. I see many negative thing for the team, but the home team received 4, the guests scored 6 times one week ago. Expect 4-5 goals.
But we have to be careful. It will depend on many factors such as a potential rise in infections, factors which don’t depend on football but on Spanish society. The risk during games will be zero, or practically zero, because the players will be tested – with only a 5% possible failure rate – 24 hours before. La Liga's plan to restart footballHow the virus has impacted sporting events around the worldTebas added that Spain’s second division would restart at the same time and that national competitions would need to be completed by 31 July, with European competitions finished in August.
Hansi Flick's side did just that - but they got over the line in unusual circumstances. When Bayern won the title on the final day of last season, they did so after an emphatic 5-1 win over Eintracht Frankfurt in front of 75,000 fans at the Allianz Arena. On Tuesday, there were no supporters present inside Werder Bremen's 42,000-capacity Weserstadion as they wrapped up the title in pouring rain. The full-time whistle was greeted with shouts of delight from Bayern's players which echoed around the empty stadium, but it was a far cry from previous title celebrations before the coronavirus pandemic.
Now having this one point we keep a positive feeling and we are still in a good position to fight for a play-off spot. Nottingham Forest assistant coach Bruno Baltazar: "It's very frustrating, we had a plan which we stuck to until the 96th or 97th minute. It's not the first time this season and we need to work on this, the concentration and to focus until the last minute of the game. We had chances to score the second goal and at this time of the season, we can't miss so many specific chances.

I want someone with charisma. A good communicator and a motivator, who can bring the right balance to their style of play. Above all, though, Arsenal need a winner. Someone with a long-term vision for the club, and the ability to see that vision through. Ljungberg is interim manager but Patrick Vieira, Nuno Espirito Santo and Carlo Ancelotti are among the candidates being linked to the permanent Arsenal jobSo it is a bit concerning that there does not appear to be a clear plan in the type of manager that the board wants - you only have to look at the very different profiles of all the names being mentioned to see that.
Should we expect footballers to comment on the ethics of playing in Qatar? Everyone loves Jurgen Klopp, with his charisma and his exciting football and his head full of at least two people’s teeth. We do too. But we can’t help thinking that he has fudged the issue of whether the Club World Cup should be taking place in Qatar, with the myraid human rights abuses that have been well documented.
Lille played their final Champions League match of the season on Tuesday as they bowed out with a 2-1 defeat away to Chelsea. It was another poor performance from Christophe Galtier's men as they lost their fifth match in nine games. However, in the league they have had a new lease of life with three wins in their last three games, carrying them up to third.
Madureira is in good shape at home this calendar year. Indeed they have not yet experienced defeat at home in 2020. It is more complicated for Volta Redonda who did not find the way to win a match in 2020. They had 2 defeats and a draw. Madeira is a team that do not play so well, but they are good at home which means they can definitely fight for points. Volta Redonda is not so strong in the away matches, they have a favorite role, but I would not say that they will win it, so in my opinion there is a really huge chance for a draw
I would rate both sides as first part of the league table clubs which if given a good run of winning games can get on the top two promotion places with a bit of luck of course. Estoril won here 2-1 last season, and I watched Covilha play their last home game with Benfica B, they conceded a penalty kick, their keeper made the foul, their keeper saved it, still conceded 2 goals as they found themselves 2-1 down late in the game before a very late 2-2 goal, but I was satisfied with the way they created scoring chances in that one and did had a nice chance to make it 2-1 but the rebound after a shot ended in the crossbar, still good attack.
The paper reports that they want to sign Ben White from Leeds United in the winter transfer window. The 22-year-old is on loan from Brighton, and an offer of £25 million might be enough to secure any deal, with the player happy to make the move to London. Paper Round’s view: Chelsea need defensive reinforcements and White would be a handy addition.
Six of the last seven league matches between Huddersfield and Blackburn have been drawn, with the Terriers winning the other in April 2016. Meanwhile, Blackburn have lost none of their last six away league games against Huddersfield, winning two and drawing four since a 3-2 defeat in August 1999 under Brian Kidd.
MANCHESTER, England, April 9 (Reuters) - Among the multitude of viral videos flying around social media during Britain's coronavirus lockdown, is one which ridicules Premier League footballers in a brutal, unsubtle fashion. Comedian Simon Brodkin parodies a player who, as well as insulting a young kid playing football in the garden, justifies his £200,000 a week salary on the basis that he needs a new car every week before going on to mock the low salaries of NHS nurses and demands they take a pay cut.

Dinamo Brest, the defending champions of the league, started this season slow with a disappointing draw, however last week they managed to get 3 points with 1:0 win. Slavia can often be dangerous and tricky opponent, but in the end I believe they are below average team compared to Dinamo Brest.
When I find so good odds on goals and that is in elite league in Spain, when they are home team, than that is more than good and real option for me. Levante is in last round lost against Eibar even 3-0, but in match before that one, they are beat leader on the table, Real Madrid 1-0. Granada, on the other side is again in good form and this team is four matches in a row without lose. In last match in league, this team is beat very good and quality rival, Athletic Bilbao 2-1. I see here really goals.

So just who is the West Midlands teenager who has been dubbed by some media as the best English talent since Wayne Rooney?BBC gives viewers FA Cup match choiceRepresenting England at 13Bellingham made club history on 6 August 2019 when, at 16 years and 38 days, he became the club's youngest player - breaking the record set by Blues legend Trevor Francis in 1970 - after starting the 3-0 Carabao Cup defeat at Portsmouth.
The original tie, in Jose Mourinho's first season in England, was by no means a classic in terms of swashbuckling football, but for pure lingering drama it warrants a place on the list. After a largely forgettable first leg, a stale goalless draw at Stamford Bridge, Anfield was absolutely rocking by kick-off. Chelsea were romping towards the Premier League title but Liverpool had the weight of European history behind them, and it seemed to work too.

Scottish football does not need to be "saved" by the English game by allowing teams to compete south of the border, says Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes. Rangers boss Steven Gerrard has claimed "filtering" the Scottish league, including Celtic and Rangers playing in the Premier League, would be "unbelievable". However, it is a view McInnes disagrees with. I think the product is good," he told BBC Scotland.
Only against Alex Ferguson (17) has Newcastle manager Steve Bruce managed more Premier League matches without winning than he has against Mourinho (10 - two draws and eight defeats).

We were flat today and poor. Maybe we don't realise what's at stake, we have to show our nasty side, grind out results.

Sergio is our captain, our leader, our reference point and he plays better from the start, it's not in anyone's interest for him to be on the bench," Zidane added. He is very important for every player in the team. It should be easy for him to get a new contract, I always want him in my team. Real lead the standings by one point over Barcelona after seeing their advantage at the top trimmed by last week's surprise 2-2 draw at home to struggling Celta Vigo.
