There is no news on anyone else, which is good news," Klopp added. Liverpool played two games in Qatar last week as they lifted their third trophy of the year following their Champions League and UEFA Super Cup triumphs. But Klopp said fatigue would not be a factor when they prepare for the trip to Leicester.
The practice would be curtailed if players could see the clock had stopped. Effective match time and amount of actual playing time does occupy a lot of our thoughts about how we can get as much game time out of the 90 minutes as possible," Webb said. One of the options that has been explored is the use of independent timekeepers, or a clock that stops every time the ball is out of play.
Blooming lost 4 of their last 6 games so far, letting in average of 2 games in the process, all their 4 home games ended with non positive results, they are very far from an equal team to match with Emelec at the moment, they will drop out very early in the Copa Südamerika and I believe that their downfall will start with this home game. I can still remember them losing to Bahia 1-4 in aggregate (2018 ).
Whilst it’s not at all likely, Galatasaray know that a win in Paris could see them salvage a Europa League spot from what's been a very weak group stage performance. The Turks have mustered just two points from their 5 matches so far; both against Brugge and having scored just once and conceded 9 times in the competition, it's not hard to see why they've been struggling.
Aguero - Manchester CityGetty Images TALKING POINT Another day of VAR controversy Brendan Rodgers will be aggrieved that VAR did not judge De Bruyne's handball from Maddison's free-kick to be a penalty in the first half, only for Praet to be penalised for a similar incident in the second half. Where is the consistency? On a day when Stockley Park admitted fault over its decision not to send Giovanni Lo Celso off in the Spurs-Chelsea game.
For me Ruh Brest is really big surprise this season. Although they score and concede a very small number of goals, they had 2-2-2 score and 2-2 goals difference, I expect some different game against Gorodeya who lost last round at home against Bate 0-2. Both teams will try to win this game and I can't see another close game without goals and many chances. So Ruh at home play more attacking football and if they score early in the game, Gorodeya will change tactics as well. Expect to see at least two goals in this game.
There are a lot of clubs and attractive projects for me to take on," Pochettino told Fox Sports in Argentina. FULL STORY 15:40 - Messi has touched down Will it be a wasted trip though? 15:23 - Dann, Cahill out for Palace Crystal Palace defenders Scott Dann and Gary Cahill will miss Tuesday's Premier League match with Bournemouth due to injury, manager Roy Hodgson said on Monday.
The Andalusian giants will have been frustrated not to get the better of Osasuna at El Sadar last weekend after the hosts were reduced to ten men with half an hour to play, but the 1-1 draw nonetheless kept Sevilla's unbeaten run in-tact and they will be hopeful of a six point haul over the next fortnight with an away game against strugglers Mallorca to come on Matchday 18.
Along with co-founder Raj Sharma, 30-year-old Brandy envisages a future where clubs use technology to make scouting more efficient. We want to be the link between grassroots and professional football, trying to bring them all together," he said. I'd say we've probably got between 200 and 300 players on trial globally within around three months. According to the English Football League (EFL), 52% of players in the 2017-19 apprentice scheme cohort received professional contracts or extended apprenticeships from clubs within the English lower divisions, a slight increase on the 49% reported in 2014.
All things considered, backing a home win looks by far the best way to play as far as the betting is concerned in this one and is something we're more than happy to do. Santos have plunged home an average of 2 goals a game over their last 6 home matches and we don't picture them having any issues in continuing that trend, with a 2-0 margin of home victory on the cards.
I think Brighton could stay unbeaten against Chelsea. There are two reasons for my pick. First, Brighton won 2:0 against Bournemouth in the previous round. I believe the players confidence is now higher, as the victory came after four matches winless streak.
One more great match and of course derby match of this round in Champions league and another match where I surely see goals on both sides. Real Madrid is in this moment in pretty good form and we are saw that in match against Galatasaray when they are wrong even 6-0 at Bernabeu. PSG, on the other side is again have Neymar, after this Brazilian was had huge problems with discipline and also with injury. As I said, I see here at least four goals and I will try that. It is very real and ok to try that here.

In fact, the Dutch word 'degradatiespook' written across the 1984 classic film's iconic symbol means 'relegation ghost' - a saying used for teams that need to fear relegation. Den Haag were two points off the bottom of the Eredivisie when Pardew and Powell took over at the end of December. But after Sunday's 2-0 win over basement side RKC Waalwijk was the first league win since October - the side from The Hague are now five points above 18th and one from safety.
Neman Grodno will host team Ruh Brest tomorrow. Neman did 2 defeats and win at the last 3 matches played. Their shape is not so well. Guests did 2 draws at the last 2 games played. Ruh Brest is one of the most unexplored teams. They have a potential and good players. But they have scored only 3 goals in the last 7 games. My bet will be on them again. It will be a hard match for both teams. Our clubs are neighbors in the table. And a draw will be a good result for both teams. It is possible to see a draw here !
Fan noise, zoom calls and Fifa crowd sounds are all on the cards. The Premier League resumes on 17 June - fabulous news!Even better, loads of it will be shown for free. The BBC will air four live Premier League games, Amazon Prime will make its four games free to air and there will be more free games across Sky Sports and BT Sport. So, how will you recreate that matchday atmosphere?Perhaps you're planning to convert your hallway into a sort of concourse for the family to mill about at half-time, liberally spilling beer over the floor.
We expect the Rams won’t be much of a challenge for the hosts, given that the visitors have lost five straight away games. The visitors are in dire form on their travels, failing to score in any of those defeats. The visitors have loss than a goal per game behind them on the road, while their losing streak should hand this one to the hosts.
Dinamo Zagreb have managed three wins in their last five matches and have two losses in the last 15. They have scored in four of their last five matches but will need to transfer this good run to the Champions League. Dinamo Zagreb have not had a very inspiring run in the Champions League. They head to this clash winless in four Champions League matches.
In addition, Liverpool are due to change shirt manufacturers from New Balance to Nike, while Watford and Newcastle are also changing kit suppliers. World governing body Fifa is aware of the problem and is looking at alternatives, like rolling contract extensions, with the season currently suspended indefinitely because of the coronavirus pandemic. However, legally, players cannot be forced to sign them, raising the possibility of clubs losing key parts of their squad before the campaign has been concluded.
He then piled further misery on the hosts six minutes after the restart, running half the length of the pitch, shaking off one defender and curling a low shot past the Roma keeper for a 3-1 lead. Henrikh Mkhitaryan made it 3-2 in the 72nd but Roma were left with 10 men after Bryan Cristante was sent off in the 84th minute.
This shows the quality of the referees' performances," said Rosetti. In addition, we feel that the time taken to overturn a decision is important. So far this season, the average time for the correction of a decision has been one minute 30 seconds – 15 seconds less than last season. The use of VAR in some domestic leagues, particularly England's Premier League, has been widely criticised with suggestions that the video officials in some countries now have more power than those on the pitch.
They asked Bartomeu to call presidential elections as soon as possible and criticised the club for hiring a third party, I3 Ventures, earlier this year to monitor social media coverage of Barca. Bartomeu has denied accusations the company created social media accounts to smear future presidential candidates, and former and current players, but he anyway rescinded the club's contract with the firm.

I really like this Prostejov side which I happened to watch in a friendly game before the season restarted against strong first league side Sigma Olomouc in a game which they dominated from start to finish and won it quite big with no less than 4-0 in the end. And since the restart Prostejov has been solid winning last game 1-0 at home against a desperate Sokolov side, they also won at home 4-1 against Vitkovice while on the road they denied Trinec in a 0-0 draw and barely lost just 1-0 away at the league leaders from Pardubice.
Jack was visibly upset on Sunday when Rangers lost a final they should have won, but his way of dealing with it was deeply impressive. He put in another towering performance at the heart of Rangers midfield on Thursday. His first yellow ensured that he'll miss the first leg of the next round, but it was one of those bookings that was deserving of admiration and not admonishment. He saw Young Boys had a chance to counter and he took one for the team by stopping it.
Da Silva Lopes, who joined from Wigan last August, claimed his first Hull goal after just six minutes. Callum Elder crossed from the left and, when Marc Guehi could only glance the ball to the far post, Da Silva Lopes' low shot flew into the net via a slight deflection off Jake Bidwell. Wayne Routledge scored the first of three Swansea equalisers at HullSwansea responded with a fine team goal only eight minutes later.
tonight will be playing match between teams Leipzig and benfica. My prediction for this match is draw result. Odd is dropping and that is one of the reasons wh yi chose to play this tip. Home team is favorite here but benfica is really underrated in my opinion. Benfica have great team and they are able to take at least 1 point from this match in my opinion. In first match they lost at home 1:2 but they had more chances and they hadn't enough luck. Now I think they will score 1-2 goals and I expect 1:1 or 2:2. Good luck.
both teams will chase the win here and I m pretty confident that is going to give to us a game with a lot of chances on both sides and at least 3 goals scored at the end combined!rkc did now won for 5 straight games and of course they are very close to relegation zone and versus terrible Sparta defense they should surely be able to score one or two goals and on the other hand Sparta did not won a game on the road since the second game on the road in the season so I expect from them one or two goals also!

It keeps Bournemouth three points from safety, after wins for West Ham and Watford on Saturday, while Leicester remain fourth. Reaction to Sunday's Premier League actionIt was a bad weekend for Bournemouth before they even kicked a ball and looked like getting worse an hour into proceedings at Vitality Stadium. The Cherries found themselves six points adrift of West Ham and Watford, while Aston Villa's victory against Crystal Palace saw Eddie Howe's side drop to 19th in the table.
He told BBC Radio 5 Live: "That was special, that touched my heart. I didn't expect that. You could see it was planned. It was magnificent. Credit to both sets of players and staff. Former Arsenal and England striker Ian Wright said Premier League players wearing 'Black Lives Matter' on their shirts shows the league wants to be on the right side of history. What the Premier League have done, is to give them the power," said Wright, who was sent racist abuse on social media last month.
Arsenal overcame struggling Bournemouth at Vitality Stadium to set up an FA Cup fifth-round trip to Portsmouth. Mikel Arteta's side were good value for their victory, the platform for progress into the next round built on first-half goals from Bukayo Saka and Eddie Nketiah. Bournemouth substitute Sam Surridge pulled a goal back deep into eight minutes of stoppage to give the scoreline a look of respectability and give Arsenal some late anxious moments, but in reality the Gunners were by far the superior team.
Budge has mooted the idea of league reconstruction, where the top flight would expand from 12 teams to 14, taking in the top two in the Championship. But Uefa sent a letter to national associations warning European places could be under threat if leagues are called early. The Uefa statement doesn’t help, trying to apply pressure," McInnes added. The self-interest there is clear. I don’t think any federation should be penalised for doing what’s fair and right for their country, including ours.
Wales winger Rabbi Matondo has apologised after being pictured wearing the shirt of his German club's biggest rivals. The 19-year-old Schalke player trained in a Borussia Dortmund top. Matondo says he naively wore "close friend" Jadon Sancho's shirt in a private gym session. I just want to say how deeply sorry I am to everyone offended and upset by my actions," wrote Matondo on social media. The original picture has been deleted, but it has been widely circulated.
So can Chelsea get the Dries Mertens deal over the line? Will Spurs actually move for Olivier Giroud? Is Islam Slimani really the answer for Manchester United? And who will snatch Willian Jose’s services? These are the burning questions being asked on Friday morning, but in caps, shouting at you is a fifth question: WHERE ON EARTH IS EDINSON CAVANI? Edinson CavaniGetty Images With the Uruguayan’s move to Atletico Madrid reportedly off, the Paris Saint-Germain striker is definitely heading to the Premier League.
Merw is really not a top team in fact Altyn Asyr played here two rounds ago and won the game with no less than 4-0 in the end but Altyn Asyr is of course the side which won most titles in this country lately and with good results in the AFC Cup competition as well while Ahal despite having a record of 6-0-2 they lost last round at home to Altyn Asyr with 2-1 being dominated and their only goal came from the penalty spot, this while they also got beaten away at same Altyn Asyr also with just 2-1 in the end.
Why Brighton will not lose this match? - the hosts play at home well. They have a 4-6-4 record and a goal difference of 17-15. Arsenal had a very start after resumption. They play average on the road and they have a record of 2-8-4.
He passed it forward - that was his first thought. Jorginho is now suspended for the next couple of games, so he's put in a performance that's said to the manager 'you have to keep me in this team'. Everything he has done has been spot on. He is so confident, to have that belief in his ability. View more on twitterFormer Tottenham and England midfielder Jermaine Jenas on BBC OneBilly Gilmour has looked like he is having a kick-about in the park with his mates.
Of course, it’s a new thing for the team to play without Harry, without a striker,” Mourinho said. We tried to give them the mobility of Son and Lucas, but it was not easy. We played with six attacking players without a striker. We have what we have and we stick with them. The boys did what they can, you cannot transform Lucas or Son into a No9 like Harry Kane.
The robustness at the back that Palace showed earlier in the season has all but abandoned them over the past month, and having conceded more than one goal only once in their first eight league games, the Eagles shipped two goals in each of their last four outings since the middle of October.
Both this rivals are teams who are have very big ambitions this season in England League 1, but we will see what will happen today. I want to say that both of them are in bad form and that is the fact. Ipswich Town is team who is favorite and team who is start this season more than dominate and good in all lines, but in last few weeks, team is not beat anyone. In last away match, they are lost 3-5 and they are surely have a lot of problems. With this poor defenses, I see here at least two goals.
What are the financial implications?Funnily enough, this is the least important aspect. Everyone knows City have rich owners. Everyone also knows the difficulty Manchester United have had trying to get into the Champions League in recent times. Arsenal have missed out three seasons in a row. Chelsea weren't in it last season. Liverpool failed to qualify as recently as 2015. Yes, their bottom line will miss out on a few million quid but that won't hurt them so much.
It happens. It will happen again for sure, but when it happens against this type of opposition, you get punished," he said. We had to sustain that level for longer periods against a very, very physical team like Chelsea. We have to move on. However, the Spaniard was keen not to place too much blame on the shoulders of his German keeper.
The SPFL has said nothing in reply. Instead of tackling Thistle's conclusions point by point, they allowed Dundee to resubmit a vote that saw Thistle relegated. From a Partick perspective, anger doesn't even come close to covering it. We're now at the end of phase one in this tortured business. Phase two is the exhumation of the reconstruction debate. We're now led to believe by the SPFL and others that there is a growing appetite for the very thing that many Premiership clubs have been dead against for years, that there is a gathering consensus for a 14-team Premiership next season - maybe for just one season - with three other leagues of 10, or some such model.
Shanghai SIPG and Shenzhen will face each other in the upcoming match in the Super League in China. Shanghai SIPG this season have the following results: 19W, 6D and 4L. Meanwhile Shenzhen have 4WD and 16L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
We’re backing Cagliari to follow up on a run of six games in seven Coppa Italia outings where both teams have scored. However, our confidence in Inter has us backing them for a win. Cagliari have gone out in eight of their last 11 trips in this competition, so we’re backing Inter to win and both teams to score, while we’re tipping a 3-1 defeat for a Cagliari side who have conceded twice or more in eight of their last nine games.
