But even if we don't win we'll still have a good chance," said Celades, whose side travel to Ajax in their final group game. But we will go out to win the game first of all and then see what happens next. We are a big club and we have to have that type of mentality. Match statsHead-to-headValencia have won just one of their seven Champions League matches against Chelsea (W1, D3, L3), winning 1-0 at Stamford Bridge on matchday one of this season's competition.
Any time a side makes a trip to Cumbria, they know that they are probably not going to have an easy time of things. However, this particular fixture sees a Carlisle side who are short of confidence and goals at the moment coming up against a Plymouth side who are at the top of their game. While we do not expect it to be a walkover, an away win appears to be the way to go.
Ronaldo and Immobile are joint top scorers in Serie A with 30 goals each.

These two sides are both out to press their top six case this week. However, the visitors have history against them. They’ve lost six of their last nine meetings with Bristol City, while Forest are winless in their last six visits to Ashton Gate. With Bristol City suffering one defeat in 16 in all competitions the Robins are seen as the favorites for this one.
Bayern's defence has improved immensely under Hansi Flick. Their four clean sheets under Flick have more than doubled their clean sheets tally for the season. They had accumulated just three under Niko Kovac this season.
Paper Round’s view: Barcelona’s transfer planning has been knocked out of shape by splurging for Philippe Coutinho and then Antoine Griezmann, without being able to recoup enough costs to balance the books. In the absence of Luis Suarez they want a backup striker, and Perez seems to be the player they are ready to sacrifice for that.
For older players such as me, it's not straightforward. While football has served me well and I still think I have got another few years in me at this level, I have a family to provide for. Soon I will have to make serious decisions about whether to carry on playing or get another job until football resumes, then maybe get back involved at whatever level I can. It's been something I have been thinking about for the past four or five years anyhow.
Kilmarnock are not in the best form at the moment with 3 defeats in a row and at home they have won only 6 of the 14 games this season. In the last 5 home games they have conceded a total of 11 goals.
Ultimately, Dundee United have to go down as huge favourites to claim the bragging rights in this one. They are in outstanding form, have outclassed Dundee twice already this campaign and generally look a far stronger outfit than the visitors.

AC Milan face Juventus on Thursday at the San Siro in the second semi-final. Inter came from 2-0 down to beat rivals AC at the weekend and go top of the table but they could not find a late rally on this occasion. Ashley Young, Alexis Sanchez and Christian Eriksen were all absent from the starting line-up and Dries Mertens and Piotr Zielinski both went close for Napoli in the first half. Away fans from the Naples region were banned from this match - a consequence of an incident in December 2018, when an Inter fan died of his injuries after being knocked down by a van amid violence before a match between the sides.

Manchester City improved their grip on second spot with a 1-0 win over rivals Leicester City in what was another fascinating weekend in the Premier League. The race for the other Champions League spots continued with Manchester United moving up to fifth with a 3-0 win over Watford, while Tottenham slipped down with a 2-1 defeat at fourth-placed Chelsea.
City could not see how it was fair that the evidence being used against them was obtained illegally particularly as, in their view, it created a distorted picture of the reality. Even as their two-year ban was being announced in February, the club were confident it would be overturned if they were given what, in their eyes, constituted a fair hearing and they now feel vindicated at how the situation has unfolded.
Messi had four in a row, before Ronaldo's six in a row (including their shared season) before Messi won it again last season. There has been one man dominating the scoring charts with them for the past eight seasons - but he has yet to win a golden boot - or the Champions League. Could this be Robert Lewandowski's season? Since the start of 2011-12 the Pole has scored 62 goals - only one fewer than Messi.
By this absurd logic, you could chalk off every goal except those scored direct from the first kick-off. The application of VAR is a complete farce, but even worse is the (currently unidentified) BT Sport co-commentator declaring: "You have to agree they’ve come to the right conclusion. Behave.

Back-to-back defeats by Southampton and Burnley had cast some doubt over their top-four credentials but goals by Harvey Barnes and Ricardo Pereira before halftime put them in control. The only surprise was it took Brendan Rodgers's side 24 minutes to go ahead, with Barnes applying the finishing touch after combining well with Ricardo.
The club added they were "surprised by the total lack of consultation" over the artwork, which will be displayed at Serie A headquarters in Milan. AS Roma also expressed their "surprise", adding: "We understand the league wants to tackle racism but we don't believe this is the right way to do it.

The injuries to the first-choice England strike pair have raised the issue of whether Vardy, who retired from England duty after the 2018 World Cup but who is join top scorer in the Premier League, might return for the Euros in June and July. We've got 70 players playing so why would we rule anybody out? I think that's always the stance we've taken and I don't see any reason to change that, unless we get another 50 English players playing in the next months," said Southgate, adding that he had yet to speak to the 33-year-old.
However, he then lost the second set by the same score, before taking the third and decisive set 6-2. He's had success on this surface in the past winning in Rio two years ago and reaching the last four of the Rome Masters, losing but taking a set off Novak Djokovic which is always something to boast about.
Fati, 17, latched on to a superb crossfield ball from Lionel Messi and fired between the legs of Levante goalkeeper Aitor Fernandez to give Barca a deserved lead on the half-hour mark. The Guinea-Bissau-born forward promptly linked up with Messi again to double Barca's lead two minutes later, getting some good fortune as the ball bobbled through the legs of Fernandez and into the net.
Chelsea pay for defensive lapsesChelsea are left needing that final point at home to Wolves to earn a top-four place as reward for a season of development under manager Frank Lampard. Here, there were many fine elements to their performance but frailty at the back is never going to escape punishment against a side of Liverpool's potency. There was huge cause for optimism with the explosive contribution of Pulisic, who unnerved Liverpool's defence with his pace and threat.
The company added it was the first time such an error had occurred in more than 9,000 matches using the system. It explained that all seven of its cameras monitoring the goal were obscured by either the goalkeeper, a defender or the goalpost. Hawkeye added that the system had been tested before the match, and was confirmed to be working by referee Oliver and his fellow officials. The company said: "Hawkeye unreservedly apologises to the Premier League, Sheffield United and everyone affected by this incident.
In some cases for the video assistants today, we use narrow spaces, such as vans, where the referees work in a space of two square metres, without a safe distance between them and other workers," Marcello Nicci told RAI television.

Forrest rampaged up the right flank on the break and was scythed down by McCart. It was a horrid tackle and a costly one. Christie whipped the free-kick into the channel between outfield men and goalkeeper, and into the far corner, with Jullien galloping away touting himself as the scorer. St Johnstone, who command a teeny sliver of Celtic's vast purse, pushed the holders hard, no question. This was an ugly, mud-spattered win, but a precious one.

Leipzig may be four points ahead but first of all we have to look at us and we have to do our own homework first. Bayern, who won the previous seven league titles, are in third place in the Bundesliga, on 33 points, with Borussia Moenchengladbach second on 35. RB Leipzig top the standings on 37. We have the quality to become German champions and last season under Nico the team showed it can cover a large gap in the second part of the season.
Paderborn's opponents and fellow Bundesliga new-boys Union Berlin will also be confident going into Saturday's fixture. Union have been one of the Bundesliga's best teams in recent weeks. They have earned 12 points over their last six games. Only RB Leipzig and Borussia Monchengladbach have earned more points, in that time.
In fairness, slinking off to do a bit of leg work doesn’t sound particularly “astonishing”. Maybe if he’d smashed a few plant pots on the way and left an insulting message on Sir Bobby Charlton’s phone before ramming his supercar through the barriers at Carrington. Either way, one of the most random transfers in this January window is now close to completion and, at the age of 34, Young will make his first foray outside of England, hoping to emulate the success Chris Smalling has had in rejuvenating his career at Roma.
Instead, Burundi Football Federation president Reverien Ndikuriyo told a press conference in Bujumbura the suspension was to allow the federation to re-assess venues for matches as some facilities might have to be used for upcoming election rallies. A general election will be held in Burundi on May 20 to elect both the president and the National Assembly.
Al Wahda will host Al Ittihad for this fixture of the league. I expect, this will be tense match. Hosts will try to capitalize advantage on their pitch. Wahda is one of the best home teams in this campaign. They are undefeated on the home ground. However, this will not be an easy task. I expect, the visitors will try to pick up the victory on the opposite stadium. Also, we have Al Ittihad who's is one of the main favorites in this campaign. The visitors are in solid shape. They have 4 victories in their last 5 matches. In any case, I think, Al Ittihad will try to make a positive result.

Middlesbrough have one of the worst home records in the league, winning just twice at the Riverside this season. Given their nine-game run without a victory in the league, the hosts are hard to back in Sunday’s live game. We find it strange they are coming into this clash as favourites despite losing nearly half their Championship outings so far.
Guardiola: Rodgers has made Leicester title rivals Brendan Rodgers has made Leicester Premier League title rivals, says Pep Guardiola. While Guardiola's champions were held to a frustrating 2-2 draw at Newcastle United at the weekend, leaving them 11 points behind leaders Liverpool, Leicester secured a last-gasp 2-1 win over Everton the following day to cut the gap to eight.
It got worse for Roma as Filip Djuricic latched onto Domenico Berardi's pass to place the ball past Lopez for the third after only 26 minutes. Edin Dzeko headed one back for Roma in the 55th minute but they suffered another blow with Lorenzo Pelligrini's dismissal for a second bookable offence in the 69th minute.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic really pushed you to be on your toes," Paul Clement recalls. I remember how strong Zlatan was with his team-mates; I have never seen anyone demand so much from his team-mates. Clement has worked with some of world football's biggest names - Ibrahimovic, Cristiano Ronaldo, David Beckham, Gareth Bale, Robert Lewandowski, Didier Drogba. The list goes on and on. The former Derby, Swansea and Reading boss has worked as an assistant to Carlo Ancelotti at Chelsea, Paris St-Germain, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, and has been sharing some of the things he has learned with BBC Radio 5 Live's Euro Leagues podcast.
Always keep your distance at the till. Keep the trolley behind you when you unpack at the till as it stops people from being able to to get too close. Don't unpack your shopping right on top of somebody else's, make a gap between theirs and yours so none of your shopping touches theirs. Here we can't put our groceries on the belt until the person in front has finished paying. Using lifts and keeping your distanceIn addition to shopping trips, he had words of advice for keeping safe in general.
We won more or less all statistics but the one that matters is goals. I can't accuse the players too much. If you always feel unlucky it's not luck, it's a bit of quality missing. We're the underdog each game, even before the season started we were favourites for position 20. We have seven academy products, we're the only self-funding club in this division so we can't spend money.
Managua u20 is huge favorite for the win, not only because they play at home but because they have more quality. Actually, Managua u20 is the best team in the league, ranked 1st place with 33 points. Their record at home is perfect, 6W 0D 0L.
