Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder says it was "refreshing" to see striker Oli McBurnie supporting Swansea City in their draw at Cardiff despite the striker being warned over his conduct. Former Swansea player McBurnie, 23, was spoken to by the Football Association after being seen making an obscene gesture during last weekend's fixture. Wilder says the warning was "quite right" and has also spoken to McBurnie.
We haven't discussed that," the Spaniard said. But I'm confident that he's very happy here because that's what he said in the media. He knows exactly what I think about him and obviously he's a massive player for us. But at the moment we're in the middle of the season and we haven't discussed anything further on that at the club.
Once La Liga is able to resume, Real Sociedad will be in with a chance of qualifying for the Champions League, having risen to fourth prior to the suspension of the season. Paolo Maldini still suffering AC Milan legend Paolo Maldini has revealed that he is still struggling to overcome the symptoms of coronavirus, having tested positive for the illness some three weeks ago.
We had to defend with our lives and make blocks. What's next?Southampton head down the coast to struggling Bournemouth on Sunday (14:00 BST), while Brighton can secure their place in the Premier League with a point at home to Newcastle on Monday (18:00). West Ham boss David Moyes wants the club to start 'promising less but delivering more' if they retain their Premier League status. The Hammers boldly declared they were targeting a top-six place when they moved into the London Stadium in 2016 and finished 10th last season.

However, one of those defeats came at the hands of Fulham, who Harris was eager to describe as the favourites for this tie because of their more expensively assembled squad. There might have been a little mischief - an attempt at mind games perhaps - on Harris' behalf but to say the pressure was on Fulham was also a way of galvanising his own players, and of retaining the underdog tag they so often seem to relish.
View more on twitterBut before we have a look at the more recent examples - and seeing as we are in what was supposed to be an international break - let's have a look at arguably England's most iconic XI. Some people are on the pitch. Beating West Germany 4-2 to win the 1966 World Cup earned this line-up legendary status but they actually only played together six times. One of the chief reasons they started so few games together is Jimmy Greaves - the forgotten man of that World Cup triumph.
Leipzig's recent home form has been substandard and we expect them to correct that when they take the field on Saturday. The sharp form of Werner and the other Leipzig attackers should be too much for Paderborn. There has been a first-half goal scored in each of Leipzig's last five games. Back the half-time result to be Leipzig and over 1.5 goals.
In the betting, 'Under 2.5 Goals' appeals at the prices. At their best, both Rotherham and Peterborough are strong sides in the final third, but neither come into this game off the back fruitful periods. Rotherham have failed to score in two of their last four at home, notching only three goals, while Posh have now failed to score in each of their last two, failing to score in two of their last three on the road. Furthermore, The Millers have either failed to score or kept a clean sheet in five of their last seven at New York Stadium, four of which have seen less than three goals go in. Overall, less than three goals have been scored in 60% of Rotherham's home games, not to mention in four of Peterborough's last six. Add in that Posh have either failed to score or kept a clean sheet in five of their last six and a less than high-scoring game starts to look ever so slightly more likely than the current odds suggest.
Arsenal start to play much better football since Arteta arrived in club. They won against Everton 3-2 last round and show really good performance. They won in Athens 0-1 and I think they already finish a job. But I doubt they will calculate. Arsenal is better team than visitors and they will try to win big if they can. Also no reason for some big rotation and I expect the best 11 at this moment. So I am sure they can cover this handicap. Emirate stadium is sold out and one big win will be just fine. Arsenal to cover - 1.5 handicap!
Beitar Jerusalem is currently playing in a good form. The home team has 49 points and ranks 3rd in the rankings. They only brought 2 wins and 1 loss in the last 3 matches. With their current performance, they had to set their sights high on this battle. Home advantage is what they need to promote.
I was really happy before we conceded the two goals, we were playing well, bringing to the game things we had tried in training," said 56-year-old Mourinho. Spurs are ninth on 17 points with West Ham 16th on 13. LATE WINNER Liverpool grabbed another late winner through Roberto Firmino at Selhurst Park against a spirited Palace side who were controversially denied an opener from James Tomkins after VAR spotted a push on defender Dejan Lovren.

Sarri said, however, that the 34-year-old had got his fitness back and just needed some polish. In terms of resistance, he has recovered, the next step will be to regain a touch of brilliance but he is on the way up," he said after the Sassuolo match. Ronaldo also suggested that he was better, posting a photograph of himself on Twitter with the caption: "Positive vibes!" Still, the question remains as to whether Ronaldo is the problem or the solution for Juventus.
Amiens have also been very poor at the back this season and while their attack has usually been able to dig them out, they were caught out against Rennes. They have conceded the third most goals in Ligue 1 and have just the one clean sheet in their last twelve matches in all competitions. Amiens' home form has been very impressive with them winning each of their last three matches at the Stade de la Licorne and that may be their saving grace here as they host Strasbourg.
Atalanta's 4-1 win over Valencia in the first leg of the tie was just the second time they have scored four times in a European knockout match. The Italian side are the third team to score four goals in their first ever Champions League knockout game, after Manchester United and opponents Valencia. Should they reach the quarter-final, Atalanta would become the first Champions League debutants to do so since Leicester City in 2016-17.
Having watched his team lose two Bundesliga fixtures on the bounce, interim Bayern boss Hans-Dieter Flick could resist any temptations to change his own XI around too much however, and that should considerably heighten Die Roten's chances of turning a weakened Tottenham team over.
Schalke have also been enjoying an impressive run of form in recent weeks. They have lost just one of their last eight Bundesliga fixtures, winning four. Furthermore, Schalke have been in impressive form at home this season. They are undefeated in their last seven Bundesliga home games, winning four.
Lyon have kept just two clean sheets in the six matches under García and with seven goals conceded in that time. Since the arrival of Rudi Garcia, I do not find particularly strong Lyon although they arrive somehow to have the second best attack of the championship after obviously the PSG. Lyon have scored at least one goal in the past five meetings, they are good enough to score against any opponent in league 1. Nice has some elements to be worth. First Youcef Attal a defender who brings a real offensive support may prove useful against Lyon. In view of the current dynamics of both teams, I suppose that will normally score, good luck to all.

Linking up with Solskjaer would probably help him settle back into England a little quicker, but he must have plenty of options when RB Salzburg finally decide the time is right to sell him. Read the full story Chelsea consider Ake move The Telegraph report that Chelsea are considering a move for Bournemouth defender Nathan Ake now that they have had their transfer ban lifted.
PSG midfielder Julian Draxler came close after the break as he shot over with just the keeper to beat before firing against the foot of the post, while substitute Cavani squandered a good chance by scooping a finish over the bar in added time. It was a routine win for Tuchel’s side, who travel to Real Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday, while Lille host last year's semi-finalists Ajax Amsterdam on Wednesday.
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.
Any fan found to be guilty will receive a lifetime ban. At this time however we should point out that our findings are inconclusive and would ask that comment is reserved until the facts are established. It has also emerged that a Chelsea fan was arrested for racially abusing Heung-Min Son. Spurs made three announcements over the public address system regarding racist abuse, but the club have also asked for clarification on the protocol deployed.
Four of the last five Zhodino league games have seen both teams score. The last five Dinamo Brest league games have seen both teams get on the scoresheet. Dinamo Brest have scored ten goals in their last two league games, but still can't keep clean sheets. Zhodino begin the weekend in third place, four points off the top of the Belarus Premier League.
Brazil bought into the sorrowful story of Neymar's absence, and there were more tears around the stadium as their team arrived. Scolari led his men off the coach wearing a white "Forca Neymar" baseball cap. Goalkeeper Cesar and captain for the night Luiz held up his number 10 shirt during a stadium-shaking version of Brazil's national anthem. It was moving but instantly aroused suspicions among those of us inside the cauldron as impartial witnesses.
Flick's soft skills have gained weight in the tough football business these days. Nobody knows how football will change as a result of the current global health and economic crisis. Leadership and empathy weld together in uncertain times. Maintaining a positive working environment and high levels of motivation during a time of uncertainty currently seem more important than one or two tactical tweaks.

The paper claims that Barry Hearn has organised a live competition for 32 consecutive evenings, who will play remotely. The tournament will be shown on PDCTV’s website and on social media.
Southend lost earlier this season with 3-1 at home against Blackpool, they are sitting in the relegation zone and it would really take a miracle for them to avoid relegation this season to League Two where they did play not so long ago, they are really poor in defense with no less than 70 goals conceded in the league alone this season and 4 of their last 5 away games ended with over 2.5 goals some with even 4 or more goals as well.
If France boss Didier Deschamps lifts the trophy he would become the first person to win the World Cup and European Championship both as player and manager. Holders Portugal, with Cristiano Ronaldo now up to 99 international goals, are 12-1 shot. Ronaldo holds the record for most games (21), most goals (nine, joint with Platini) and most tournaments with at least one goal (four) at the European Championship.
This is a match from Kenya- Premier league between Ulinzi Stars and Wazito, 17. Round. Ulinzi is one of better team in this league and they are of course favorites today however I will try with goals here, Ulinzi stars is in really good attacking mood and that is one of the main reason why I expect efficient match here, Ulinzi attack is at high level recently and I expect that they will dominate from the start I expect open game here with a lot of chances and my bet will be over 2.5 goals which looks pretty real for me. Good luck!

It was a decision that paid off and Welsh, after making her comeback in a pre-season friendly with Coventry United in August 2018, was rewarded with the club captaincy by head coach Gemma Davies. And now, the 27-year-old is playing her best in years and leading a team enjoying an unbelievable run, quite the incredible story.
Newcastle United fans have been urged to "unite to protect" the club from a takeover by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF). The message came in an open letter from Hatice Cengiz, who is the fiancee of murdered journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Western intelligence agencies believe that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who heads the PIF, ordered Khashoggi's murder in 2018 - which he denies. You as the loyal fans do have a big say in this," wrote Cengiz.
We feel that these teams' respective poor defensive records will create the necessary conditions for an open and high-scoring game this Sunday. Both of these two teams have become familiar with high-scoring games in recent weeks.

That victory over Everton ended a run of seven consecutive winless games in the top flight for Daniel Farke’s side, and with six of those being losses it comes as no surprise that they find themselves stranded in the relegation zone. They sit 18th after that win last weekend, three points adrift of West Ham above them and knowing they really need to pick up the pace for the rest of the season.
This will be probably very interesting match today in Belarusian Premier league and I will try with option over 2, even it is probably more real and natural to expect match with stronger defenses. But, as I said, I will still bet on goals, because in few last matches, this two rivals are played efficient. Neman is in last round played 3-1, while not so long ago, Torpedo BelAZ is played match with amazing even seven goals, 5-2. I believe this match will in any case bring at least two goals, so that will be my option for this duel.
