Hertha will have some help with the arrival this week of Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha -- one of Klinsmann's winter transfers worth a reported 18 million euros -- who had been busy with the Brazil Under-23 team for their Olympic qualifiers. With only five goals in their last seven league games, Hertha need Cunha's goals badly.
This match could become high scoring and both teams look very attacking coming into the match. There could be goals for both team in this match which means this bet should not lose. It is a high scoring match expected with the home team actually looking the strongest of both teams coming into the match. The team have listed a strong squad and could score 2 or even 3 goals on their own in this match, also could do this with the away team not defending anywhere near their best in some of their away matches where goals are being scored
Paper Round’s view: This should put an end to any rumours that Manchester United will be taken over by Saudi Arabia, and with Mike Ashley’s business empire rocked by the impact of coronavirus, a third of a billion pounds should go some way to keeping him afloat. For the Saudis, they have taken advantage of coronavirus to press down the asking price by £40 million, and now await Premier League approval.
It's a horrible situation for them to be in - to think that they need to go and possibly find another job that they maybe haven't known for the last six, eight or 10 years just to support their families - but it is unprecedented times and I'm sure there's many other people in the country who are in the same position. Rodman's concerns are echoed by Dr Rob Wilson, sports finance expert at Sheffield Hallam University, who believes "a lot of players" will drop out of football.

He endured tough early years at Old Trafford but, once he made the breakthrough with the FA Cup in 1990, United embarked on a golden era in which Ferguson's inspirational leadership, charisma, fire and know-how was allied to an uncanny knack of knowing exactly when and how to dismantle and build great teams. The highlight was the unique treble of the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup in 1999 - a truly remarkable feat no-one else in England has repeated.
Champions League draw on its way Good morning and welcome to another week of football, which features the small matter of a Clasico on Wednesday, updates on Arsenal's manager situation, and a blockbuster Premier League clash between Chelsea and Tottenham, of course now managed by the former Blues boss Jose Mourinho.
Well in this game I think it is very realistic to be draw at the end, cause first of all that is a good result for both teams, palace is not in good shape but still at home they are very strong and unbeatable if we exclude top 3 teams on the table and on the other side West Ham is much closer to the relations zone then to the middle and a draw for them on the road Will be very good outcome and also they didn't played draw for a very long time and even 0 0 is not going to be a surprise
They rip into each other and then Kirsty Linnett starts singing and Leighanne Robe joins in, but it's a good way to keep the morale high. Rather than everything being staff-led, we have given ownership to Rachel Furness and Rinsola Babajide to come up with a music quiz on Zoom. All the girls and the staff will tune in this weekend so that will be entertaining!"A number of WSL players have struggled to get the equipment they need to keep fit, and Jepson says Liverpool have had to "make do with what we have got, adapt and be creative".

The FA has created a double standard and I find it unacceptable. Brighton goalkeeper Mat Ryan will donate 28,000 Australian dollars {about £15,000} to a wildlife rescue fund in Australia after 56 saves were made in the Premier League this weekend. The Australian pledged to donate A$500 Australian dollars per save to Wires Wildlife Rescue in response to the bushfire crisis in his home country.
This Liverpool side are, after all, resilient, relentless and the current kings of the late goal. It was a title once held by Sir Alex Ferguson's ludicrously successful Manchester United, whose perceived favouring by officials and ability to capitalise on the added time given to them was immortalised in the concept of 'Fergie Time'. Are we now in the era of 'Kloppage Time'? And could it be a defining factor in what Liverpool are hoping will be a first league title since 1990?Liverpool lead the wayMane's late header against Villa was the second decisive injury-time goal Liverpool have scored this season, with James Milner also turning a potential draw into a victory with his 95th-minute penalty in the home game with Leicester.
Manager Nuno Espirito Santo is counting on the atmosphere at Molineux to inspire his team when they face Espanyol in the first leg of their Europa League last-32 tie on Thursday. Wolves, runners-up in the competition in 1972 when it was known as the Uefa Cup, began this season's run in July. The group stages, all the games were a full house," said Nuno. We want to have this atmosphere at Molineux, our fans helping us, creating a fantastic atmosphere.
Harris made five changes to the side which started Cardiff's last league game, a 5-1 mauling at Queens Park Rangers, with goalkeeper Neil Etheridge among those dropped. Swansea handed a debut to on-loan Liverpool striker Rhian Brewster, whose first act of any note was to pick up a yellow card for a sliding challenge on Lee Tomlin. Such is the way on derby day, when commitment is a minimum requirement.

The Republic of Ireland international had two chances to double the lead when the Blades were well on top after the break. Both times he could not beat Wolves keeper Patricio. It proved costly when Doherty headed in at the back post minutes later, with McGoldrick failing to track his runner. He was eventually substituted to be replaced by Oli McBurnie, who had a late chance to win it when he headed over, but Wilder will not mind too much about McGoldrick's form while his team are still picking up points.
Crouch discusses how important it is to have personal goals and explains how things can become difficult for ex-footballers otherwise. He said: "I know some friends of mine [who have retired from professional football] got in a really, really dark place - waking up and not having any real goal, splitting up with their wives, not having a job, not having any real money coming in and going from a hero to basically a nobody.
Owner Mel Morris is waiting for further investment in the side which has yet to be signed off, and the Daily Mail says that a deal is in the offing and should soon be signed off. Paper Round’s view: Failing to meet payroll can't be ignored. It also begs the question why Rooney has been signed if things are so tough at Derby County in terms of their finances.

Schalke is probably the worst shaped team of the whole Bundesliga and a win for them seems to be unlikely, however they have a huge experience and they can win despite coming from 10 matches with no win in Bundesliga. Leverkusen has been certainly better than them being involved in the fight for a Champions League place, however they have been quite inconsistent in the last weeks, beating Mgladbach and Freiburg but also conceding 4 goals to Wolfsburg and Bayern. Leverkusen could be a bit tired after their DFB Pokal match and Schalke could take advantage of that to win this match.
Lazio have been good enough this season to challenge for the title. They are worthy heroes for the rest of the league in the quest to stop Juventus from cantering to another championship. Inter Milan are another quality side but their early Champions League exit suggests that they don't have the stomach for this fight. We see Lazio leapfrogging Inter with a win.
In two months' time, the deaths from coronavirus are not going to have stopped. They might have reduced, but how can the Premier League justify coming back and using health workers who are would otherwise be on the beat?Even if the situation does settle down by then, those workers will still need a break if that is at all possible, mentally and physically. Yet because of the money in football, there is a clamour for it to return.

Midfielder Josh Knight is the only other player to find the net more than once for Posh this season. We've got a great partnership, us three - every game we know we're going to score, and that confidence is a good thing to have," club-record signing Eisa told BBC Sport. The manager [Darren Ferguson] puts so much pressure on us. Because we've got the three of us I think we'll continue this throughout the whole season.
A second such battalion would follow. Public support for the game would deteriorate over the course of the season, with attendances and income dropping significantly for clubs, who now found themselves in an untenable position. Shortly after the end of the season, in April 1915, professional football was halted for the duration of the war. Football was largely gone but it was far from forgotten, remaining a necessary means of escape at the darkest of times.
After 27 rounds at the Burundi National Championship, Kayanza United currently has 33 points and currently ranks 13th in the league table right on the red light group with the distance currently only 4 points when the tournament is still 3 more rounds to end
Chief among them is freeing Abdoulaye Doucoure from an anchor role in midfield to impact the game at both ends in a box-to-box capacity. I used to play in this position when I was in France," Doucoure told watfordfc. I will play wherever but I'm pleased with this position as I can get forward and also get back to protect the midfield. The 27-year-old has two goals and an assist in his past two games, having contributed one solitary strike prior to that.

Leigh Griffiths scored his first goal since August as Celtic beat Partick Thistle to record a 32nd consecutive win in domestic cup competition. Neil Lennon's side eased into the Scottish Cup last 16 at Firhill as they target a fourth consecutive treble. Callum McGregor added a second after Kenny Miller had earlier rattled a post for the Scottish Championship side. Thistle scored a late consolation when Dario Zanatta won a penalty, which Stuart Bannigan converted.
And Chong almost scored himself but rattled the underside of the bar with a rasping effort from close range. United coasted to the finish line and managed to escape unscathed and with plenty of confidence after overcoming a real potential stumbling block. Talking point – Wing backs free up United attack Shaw and Dalot caused chaos on the flanks as Tranmere desperately struggled to deal with the wide threat while keeping tabs on the men in the middle.
The SPFL says this is correct and was "based on feedback from clubs and club representatives on the SPFL board". It adds: "It was an honest and open assessment of what the vast majority of SPFL clubs were saying at that time. Part of the job of the chief executive is to gauge the views of clubs on important issues. The SPFL also pointed towards the fact that more than 80% of clubs voted in favour of ending the lower-league season.
It is fair to say that 2019 has been a year to forget for Grimsby Town and with the way the side is finishing the decade, it is a period of history which their fans will not be too keen to return to anytime soon. The Mariners come into the match on New Years Day having failed to win any of their last 11 league matches and just six points ahead of the side occupying this season’s only relegation spot.
Zaglebie restarted the season with a great win away from home at Pogon which is inside the top 4 places in the league at this moment but Zaglebie beat them away from home with no less than 3-0 while in their second game at home they placed against another top side Lech Poznan just that in that second game they ended up conceding 3 goals but also scored 3 goals once more as they earned themselves a point in a 3-3 draw, and their last 3 home games ended with over 3.5 goals as well.
But Fred will be glad of the company. Assuming he gets through his medical and the two parties can negotiate a contract. Would you like to be paid a lot of money?” “Why, yes. Yes I would. Lovely. Sign here. Obviously United are more argument than football club these days, and Fernandes is the latest acquisition by an organisation whose record in the market has been … let’s say mixed, and you can mentally swap in a much ruder and more accurate word.
He has the predatory skills to rival Ruud van Nistelrooy, with something of the finesse of Thierry Henry," reported the Guardian. I can't believe that was 17 years ago," Romanian Mutu told BBC Sport. In my first year at Chelsea I worked with Claudio Ranieri, a great coach, who wanted me in the squad. Without those personal problems, things would have been different…"On 12 July 2004, less than a year after that explosive start and a little over a month since Jose Mourinho had arrived to replace Ranieri, Mutu found himself subject to a doping test.
The result moves Barcelona onto 31 points from 14 matches and they are in a great position despite losing three away matches this term. It's been a different story at Camp Nou though where Ernesto Valverde's men have secured a perfect six wins from six, smashing in 25 goals in total.
And it’s not a departure without rancour either, with The Sun reporting that a training ground dust-up with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer effectively helped to seal the deal. SunSport can reveal the astonishing scenes at United’s training ground last Friday as Young, 34, pushed for his Old Trafford exit.

Chelsea last beat Manchester United in the FA Cup final in 2018, courtesy of Eden Hazard’s goal and heading to this game, they will be looking to avoid defeat for the first time in four meetings this season. On the other hand, Manchester United head to this game as favorites, on a 12-match unbeaten run. Chelsea have scored in seven of their eight matches after lockdown and United have scored in all, pointing to an attacking game at Wembley on Sunday. Meanwhile, Chelsea have three clean sheets and United four in the same period, and going by the two sides’ forms, we will pick on a win for Manchester United.

Newcastle United Supporters Trust board member Greg Tomlinson told BBC Radio 5 Live: "You have to take stock on what comes next, it's very strange to be talking about the money that could be coming into the club in terms of where we find ourselves in society right now, where many clubs are in danger of going out of business. You have to look at sustained growth and sensible acquisitions - we are not going to go out and get Mauricio Pochettino are we? It has to be proper growth.
