The same goes for their hopes of success in Europe when they pick up their Champions League campaign against Real Madrid next month too. They might not have retained their Premier League title, but they are still a very good team indeed. Lawro's prediction: 0-2Jimi's prediction: Arsenal are going to get one, but we are going to win it. SUNDAY Bournemouth v Southampton (Premier League, 14:00 BST)Southampton are playing some really nice football at the moment and look confident on the ball, which is great to see.
It's no secret that Portsmouth are a strong side at home. Fratton Park is a tough place for anybody to go and Kenny Jackett's men use that to their advantage on a regular basis. However, Pompey appear to be a different side on the road.
After seeing off fifth-tier Langnon-Castets 3-0, they beat another Ligue 2 side, Cannes, again on penalties - which brought each of their players a huge £2,000 bonus and firmly into the public limelight. If that win caused waves, the next, against Ligue 1 Strasbourg, prompted a tsunami of public recognition. Technically a home draw, the tie was played in Lens because Calais’ 2,100-capacity stadium - usually home to 300 staunch fans on a weekend - was too small.
The 2020-21 season problems In addition to this season's tournaments, the meeting will also discuss how the complicated qualifying system for the 2020-21 club competitions are going to work. It is anticipated Uefa will have a six-week window to complete its qualifiers, which normally involve more than 200 two-legged ties and all 55 member nations at some stage in the five rounds of competition. Recognising that for the majority of clubs, the qualifiers represent the extent of their involvement in European competition, Uefa would only cut the access list as a last resort.
HAT TIP Some games postponed. Others going ahead. Some behind closed doors; some in front of fans. Soldiers standing around in masks. If you’re a little confused as to how exactly Italian football is coping with the spread of the coronavirus, well, you’re not the only one. James Horncastle pokes through the chaos for The Athletic.
Oshmyany will host Slonim for this fixture of the league. I think, both sides have the motivation to get a positive result. However, both teams are in poor shape in the last matches. In any case, I expect another one tough match for both sides. Oshmyany have advantage at home stadium. True, Oshmyany have better results in the last mutual matches - 2 losses in a row. In any case, the hosts will try to break the poor series. Slonim are more vulnerable in recent times. They have three consecutive losses. Also, I think, this is a very unpredictable league. My pick - Oshmyany to win.
He was tested yesterday and found positive for the coronavirus," the club said in a statement. The same goes for his son Daniel. Paolo and Daniel are in good condition and, having already spent more than two weeks at home without outside contact, as required by medical and health protocols, will extend the quarantine for the time necessary for a complete clinical recovery.

Manager Nick Cushing to leave Manchester CityGoodison Park to host WSL Merseyside derby Pauline Bremer's double against Everton took her tally to nine league goals for the seasonThe Gunners can re-open a three-point cushion with victory at Brighton on Saturday and, in a tight title race, City - who registered 24 shots during the game - could well rue their failure to score more. Having enjoyed a first-minute let-off when City keeper Ellie Roebuck diverted Hannah Cain's shot on to the bar, Germany striker Bremer turned the game the hosts' way.
The 21-year-old was taken off in the 20th minute of Juve's match at AS Roma on Sunday, having earlier scored their opening goal in a 2-1 win which took them top of Serie A. During the game last night, Merih Demiral sustained a sprain to his left knee," said Juventus in a statement. It said that tests had revealed "injury to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) along with associated injury to the meniscus".
These two sides are both from Belarus. It's a club friendly game. The host Krumkachy will be playing their very first friendly game and they seem to be better side coming to this game after recent wins against Smorgon. The last meeting between these two sides was won by Krumkacy 5-0 that was December of last year. Smorgon come to this game in a very good run of form after their latest friendly win against Molodechno 0-5 away from home which was their second win on the spin. They are away in this game and I think they still can win
The noise tends to come from social media, talk-radio and pundits who are quick to judge from short-term results, which is a particularly inappropriate approach given the task Solskjaer has been given of creating a new, more youthful team, out of the mess he inherited from Mourinho almost a year ago.
Even if you go to play Saturday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, clubs have youth policies, so give the young 'uns a chance - you just have to get it done, simple as that. And if that interrupts the timing of, or we have to splice next season in two a little to make it all fit in, we need to do that. We are chainsaws’Like many other clubs, Holloway and his backroom staff are monitoring the Grimsby players remotely after setting them individual training requirements while social distancing, but he said they would be ready for action when instructed.
Including two wins over Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho, Lampard now has three victories over former Chelsea managers this season as fans serenaded him with "super Frank" from all four sides of the stadium. Chelsea boosted by Gilmour's influence Billy Gilmour made his Premier League debut in place of the suspended JorginhoGilmour's first Premier League start came after a man-of-the-match performance in their FA Cup fifth-round win over Liverpool on Tuesday.
Six weeks ago, they were well beaten at Chelsea, conceding three unanswered goals and dropping to their lowest point of the campaign in terms of form and league position. But as Dyche and his side have repeatedly shown, they are most dangerous with their backs to the wall and a point to prove. A haul of 13 points from the past available 15 has certainly done the trick and now, instead of worrying about the prospect of trips to Reading and Hull next season, they are dreaming again of visits to Istanbul and Athens.

LilleLille's only win in six away games at English sides across all European competitions came at Aston Villa in the Intertoto Cup in August 2002 (2-0) - they have failed to score in each of their other five such matches in England (D1 L4). Lille have taken only one point in the Champions League this season (W0 D1 L4) - under the current group stage format, the only French side with fewer in a single campaign in the competition was Marseille in 2013-14 (0).
Millwall have been impressive under Rowett, but they have only lost twice across their last 10 matches. Their improving form has been building for a while, which gives them a great chance here. With Birmingham scoring just twice in their last three, failing to win in four, we expect the visitors to take something out of this game. Millwall Double Chance is our pick for this one.
For me', he says, 'it’s remembered for the wrong reasons. I did everything I could and the famous photo shows that I’m closer to the ball than his head. That’s why he punched it in with this hand. You always have people saying: ‘Oh, he out-jumped you. He didn’t out-jump me. He cheated. So to be associated with that moment' …" Peter Shilton sits down with The Guardian to chew the fat (again) over the 'Hand of God'.
While dealing with Eriksen's future, Mourinho also has to concentrate on the perceived hangover from that loss to Liverpool in Madrid. If Mauricio says that [losing the final affected the players] then he's been here and he's sharing his feelings. It's like landing on the moon but you don't do it," he said. Look at Liverpool; they had the frustration of not winning and then the next season they reached the final and won it.
Home championships & global pioneersMarch the following year saw the creation of both the Scottish Football Association and the Scottish Cup, making it the second oldest cup competition in world football, as association football quickly became the most popular sport in the country. The next international to take place between Scotland and England was in the same month, the visitors losing 4-2 in London.
Tiers three to seven of the women's domestic pyramid were cancelled in March and results expunged, meaning there will be no promotion and relegation between the second and third tiers. The FA's statement added that it will "work with the clubs and our stakeholders across football to plan for next season", and hope to announce a target start date for the 2020-21 season soon. It is still not known if this season's Women's FA Cup, which had reached the quarter-final stage, will be concluded, with further discussions planned for later this month.

The Saints went into the encounter at the King Power Stadium having endured a humiliating 9-0 loss in the reverse fixture in October. But they took their revenge when striker Danny Ings sealed all three points with a late winner. The comeback win meant Southampton have won four of their last five league games to sit eight points above the relegation zone, a huge turnaround from a few months ago when Hasenhuettl was facing questions about his future at the club.

On Tuesday, Bayern moved closer to an eighth successive Bundesliga title as they won 1-0 at Dortmund. After that match, Dortmund boss Lucien Favre said it would be "brutally difficult" for anyone to stop Bayern becoming German champions for a 30th time. What's next? Hertha Berlin, who move up to 10th in the Bundesliga, play at home against Augsburg on Saturday, before RB Leipzig play away at Cologne on Monday.
But the move did not materialise and, since then, the 26-year-old has been one of the main beneficiaries of so-called Sarriball which involves moving the ball around the pitch at high speed -- as opposed to predecessor Massimiliano Allegri who put the emphasis on "interpreting the match. Dybala scored the only goal in Juve's 1-0 win on Tuesday from a free kick in the unlikeliest of positions near the goal-line, curling the ball over the Atletico wall and in off the crossbar for his seventh goal of the season in all competitions.

Shakhtyor is aiming for the league title this season and I believe they will win it. In this game they are up against Neman Grodno and here I can see the away team having big problems with the home team. It should be a big gap between the both teams.
St. Polten will host Rheindorf Altach for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the hosts have a real chance to get all three points. St. Polten is not very good team in this campaign. However, St. Polten have advantage at home stadium. I think, they will try to make a positive result. Also, we have Altach who's is very average team in this season. Altach have 3 victories in their last 5 matches. True, the visitors have a poor results on the road. Altach is worst team away from home. I think, the hosts will closer to victory in this match.
There could not be a bigger contrast between the first two Bundesliga derbies between teams from east and west Berlin. November's maiden meeting saw a winning goal for Union Berlin in 10 minutes of time added on after raucous fans threw flares on to the pitch. Friday's return game with Hertha Berlin at the Olympic Stadium will be behind closed doors because of the coronavirus pandemic. We all remember the match in November.
They knew I came from a traumatic injury so thought 'let's go easy on him'. But I tried to make it clear that if I am training with the boys it is because I am available and I am OK to do that. So I was asking the players to be normal, don't go easy on me. I needed to prepare myself for the next step and the next step was competition. I needed to be ready to be on the pitch and be normal so let's start on the training ground.

The first match of the playoff final for the Clausura. Two big rivals and former Champions, are fighting in this equal challenge, and there should not be a lot of goals scored on either game. Esteli played goalless one with diriangen few days ago 0:0, and Managua also against Walter in the semi final opening 0:0.
The Premier League would likely also aim to for such a completion, allowing them to resolve the issues of promotion and relegation and European qualification without any wrangles. It would also ensure they provided their broadcast partners, domestically and internationally, with a full and complete season in line with their contracts.
Town chairman Rob York told BBC Sport that Savage played in defensive midfield and came on to "great applause", before helping his side see out the game. Savage managed to get a few telling touches to break up the midfield and used his experience to clear the Stockport lines on a couple of occasions," said York. Following the game and the warm down, Savage took time to chat to and have photos taken with the many fans waiting for the opportunity to meet with him.

79 goals conceded by the hosts so far this season as they lost every single game they played so far, Glacis is not much better 2nd from bottom but they are one class at least above their opponents even though they have just 7 points in this relegation group, when they hosted College during the normal season they won 4-0 at home and believe me when I tell you the hosts are not much better defending when they are at home, lost recently 6-1 to Lions Gibraltar or 6-2 to Europa Point as well.
He had previously criticised players for not "playing their part" by failing to agree pay cuts across the league.

Veteran winger Joaquin went round Courtois and looked to be slipping the ball into an empty net but was denied by Luka Modric's goal-saving interception on the line. The Belgium international goalkeeper also made a stunning save to tip Nabil Fekir's thunderous, first-time strike over the crossbar. After taking the lead through Sidnei's superb effort, the goalscorer went from hero to villain by bringing down Marcelo inside the area and allowing Benzema to equalise.
