But Klopp says he has faith that the youthful side will be able to put in a strong performance against more experienced opponents. I know how a lot of people in the public see it, but if all the football games would be decided before we start, only because of the perception of the people, then most of the games wouldn’t be played.
Duel of the first two teams in the second level of the competition from the recent years, where both did not make a good start at the top level. Belshina was expected to have better results and performance, since they were champions in the previous season, but team could not make more than one draw so far.
Today will be played the last game from this round at Israeli Super league. Rivals will be the teams of Bnei Yehuda and Maccabi Haifa. Serious difference at the classes here and probably the guests will win but I am more interested in the goals.
I did have one phone call off an agent, Bryan Robson’s old agent, he rang me while we were away at Euro 2000 to ask me if I would be interested in going to Inter Milan but that’s the only phone call I ever had. I never heard anything after that and the manager never said anything to me. I was playing at my boyhood club, I was a Manchester lad, we were winning trophies all the time. If the manager said to me that he didn’t want me I would definitely have gone if there was a big club abroad who wanted me but there was never any need to ever think about Barcelona, Real Madrid or AC Milan because I was at the biggest club in the world anyway.
Arka is really not that solid on the road defeated in the cup for example with 2-1 away from home at lower league club Odra Opole, this while they have played 10 away games all season long and only won away at newly promoted LKS Lodz and away at really weak Wisla which is having its poorest season in the last 20 years if not more, and last round they were completely dominated away from home at Jagiellonia not even having a single shot on target in that game.
They were also the first side to do so against a team managed by Guardiola since Hoffenheim in March 2014. English managers have taken just four points in their last 30 away Premier League matches against Manchester City, with all four being won by Roy Hodgson's Crystal Palace. David Silva has scored with each of his last two direct free-kick attempts in the Premier League, with those coming in his last three games.
I think we've got to look at the bigger picture. Wilder, along with the Sheffield United players and chief executive, took pay and bonus deferrals to support the club's finances during the pandemic. I think everybody that is in the know understands the implications if this season was scrapped, from a financial point of view and a social and moral point of view as well," Wilder said. Sheffield United are seventh in the Premier League, two points behind fifth-placed Manchester United.
When we look at the recent efforts of both teams, siding with the home win becomes a relatively easy thing to do. Sunderland haven't been prolific winners this term, but they've looked a lot better of late and are seemingly facing a declining Wycombe side at the right time. While the Chairboys have struggled to hit their stride offensively of late, the Black Cats have steadily improved, scoring six in their last three. Wycombe have failed to score in each of their last three on the road, while their average away shot supremacy of -2.09 doesn't look great against Sunderland's of +3.87 at home.

Sean Longstaff played the ball over the top of the defence and Joelinton finished with aplomb. GOAL! Oxford 1-2 Newcastle (Kelly): Oh my, what a strike! It's a gorgeous free-kick by Kelly. He gets it up and over the wall and back down again, the ball nestling in the top right corner. Game on! 90'+3 GOAL! Oxford 2-2 Newcastle (Holland): OHHH MY! What a goal! Holland levels the scores with the last kick of the game in normal time! And we are surely going to extra-time now! He launches a spectacular volley past Darlow from the edge of the box.
The Football Association of Thailand published a letter from the Asian Football Confederation on their social media accounts on Wednesday which stated Chiang Rai’s request not to travel to South Korea had been granted. South Korea has suffered a wave of coronavirus infections in recent days and sporting events across the country have been affected.
And although they took charge after Barnes had equalised and went on to lead, their authority was fleeting. Media playback is not supported on this device Leicester showed fantastic mentality & fight - Brendan Rodgers Barnes steered a glorious chance wide when through on Caballero, and Jonny Evans headed wide from a corner, but they never appeared fully in control. Rodgers' side appeared to be suffering a hangover from their Carabao Cup defeat by Aston Villa on Tuesday - making sluggish starts in each half.
A statement from the Catalan club on Friday said Dembele, 22, had injured his right hamstring and would be sidelined for approximately 10 weeks. The Frenchman was in tears as he hobbled off in the first half of Barca's 3-1 win over Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League on Wednesday. Dembele signed for Barcelona from Dortmund in 2017 for 105 million euros ($115.
Despite Ibrahimovic's comment, Materazzi did not suffer serious injury and played for Inter two weeks later. Overall, Ibrahimovic played five times in the fixture for Milan and his final appearance, in May 2012, was bittersweet. He scored twice but Milan lost 4-2, ending their hopes of winning the title that season.
We have to think about the derby and game by game. It's not just the Premier League. We have the FA Cup, Carabao Cup and Champions League so we just have to take this rhythm into the next set of fixtures. Liverpool will look to extend that gap back to 11 points over City when hosting Everton tonight.

We’re confident that under 2.5 goals will be scored this weekend and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-0 in favour of Porto. The visitors arrive as the clear form favourites and with an excellent record against their hosts. Porto haven’t been scoring a lot of goals on the road this season but have managed to keep clean sheets in half of their away games and we expect the Portuguese giants to do the same again on Sunday.

Emery's prospects were hardly helped too by arch-rivals Tottenham Hotspur's sacking of the hugely popular Pochettino last week after a similarly poor start. Tottenham's decisiveness in hiring Jose Mourinho intensified the spotlight on Emery and the Arsenal board, even before the defeat by Frankfurt. Former Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Petit's reaction to the news of Emery's departure was "it's about time.
That wasn't as convincing a win as it should have been. Smolevichi (one from bottom in the league) took the lead in the first minute but ended the first half 3-1 down. Smolevichi got it back to 3-3 but two goals in the 80th and 93rd minutes clinched the win. BATE lead the table on goal difference and Sunday's win was their fifth in six league games.
For the club and for him it's best and we say 'Okay, if you want to leave, you only have two or three months on your contract and it's better to go and we are concentrating on developing other players. Walker-Peters made just 24 senior appearances for Spurs, including five this season, while Soares has been a Southampton regular since joining in 2015.
Middlesbrough will host Nottingham Forest for this fixture of the league. No doubt, the visitors have better team than their opponent in this season. Nottingham are more ambitious team in this campaign. True, the visitors have big fluctuations. In last game Nottingham is won 0-1 against Cardiff. Also, we have Middlesbrough who's is not very good team in this season. Middlesbrough is team of relegation zone. Of course, the hosts have a very difficult challenge in this game. In any case, they will in this match seek their chance. They want to move from the bottom of the table. My pick - Middlesbrough to win.
English Premier League. Leicester City will play at home with team Southampton. Southampton have not lost in their last four league games , winning three and drawing one. They have won 2 -0 against Chelsea and 3- 1 against Aston Villa in their last two away league matches. Guests did 2 - 0 with team Huddersfield in the last match. Southampton have a great motivation to take a revenge after they lost with score 0 - 9 in the first leg. Last year team Southampton won here with score 2 -1 in Premier League game. I think for high odds it is a good bet .
But Messi netted a stunning strike from distance, surrounded by no fewer than four opposition players, before Suarez was given the chance to score from the spot after a VAR review showed a handball from Ximo Navarro. In the end, it was an emphatic victory for Barca who are now clear at the top of the table until Real Madrid’s game against Athletic Club on Sunday.
In turn, the lure of regular playing time, Champions League football and a consistently full, vibrant stadium has turned Dortmund into one of the most attractive destinations in Europe for the game’s leading young talents. For Bleacher Report, Tom Williams on how Borussia Dortmund are trying to stay ahead of the game.
Inter have home advantage in the first leg of this Italian Cup semi-final so will be all out to get a lead. They remain in top form and just keep on strengthening their squad. Home form is strong and they are unbeaten in ten games. Since October, their only two losses have been in the Champions League. Napoli have had a disappointing season and lost to Lecce at the weekend. Inter can be backed to get a win here.
It was my idea to do that," Pogba said of the wristbands. I mean, I've been thinking about doing this but I don't want to go through the UEFA or the FIFA. I (have) done it myself. I think we have the chance to have this power to show things in football, on TV. People see it so I think that will make people understand some things.
Vitoria Guimaraes have struggled to adapt to European football this season, losing their opening three group games and drawing their fourth in what was always going to be a tricky group to progress from. Standard Liege, on the other hand, have surprised many with some of their performances in the Europa League and while things are tight at the top it is a testament to their good home form that they remain in with a chance of qualification with two games remaining.
The odds for Triglav were initially 1.95 but now are 2.50 and I couldn't find any info for what might be the reason for this odds raising so this is goes in our favor ( but just in case there is some hidden surprise ) I decided to go with this. I already spoke about Rudar Velenje few time I think. They are at the rock bottom and will be relegated. This is the worst season for this club from Velenje since they exist and there is 0% for the players for sure. Most of them already find a new clubs for the next season and the club will start from 0. On the other hand Triglav still have a good chance to avoid relegation. Domzale has only 2 points more than them so if they want to save the season they cannot afford to lose against team that is playing for nothing. Even though they have only 1 lost at the last 10 games the results are not speaking the whole picture. Triglav is actually not playing very bad, they are showing good performances but have troubles with scoring the goal, by that I mean that they are wasting too many chances, and if they want to cut that bad shape this is the perfect moment.
With Spanish soccer on hold along with most live sports while the world fights the coronavirus pandemic, players traded the pitch for Playstation in an online tournament organised by esports commentator Ibai Llanos and endorsed by La Liga.

He added: "Xhaka's comeback is going to be important to us. The Swiss midfielder has not played for the club since he swore and gestured towards Arsenal fans while being substituted during the match against Palace on 27 October, although he did feature for Switzerland in November's final round of European Championship qualifiers. Xhaka explained in a statement that he had "reached boiling point" following threats by supporters towards his family, and was offered counselling by Arsenal.

There were doubts about whether he would ever play again but there were also doubts if he would ever walk again if things went wrong.

We're talking on the phone because that's how things are done in these strange times but even without the face to face his humour and intelligence shines through.

The consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic will not be rectified simply by a return to play behind closed doors.

Critics say the system goes far beyond its original remit and that decisions are taking too long. The game is changing and we are afraid that it is changing too much," Ceferin told reporters following a UEFA executive committee meeting, adding that the search for refereeing perfection was futile. Football needs uncertainty because the players make mistakes and the referees on the pitch have to take responsibility, not some people hidden in a van or a building 500 kilometres from the venue," he said.

His City team-mate Raheem Sterling shared his concern on his YouTube channel on Monday, saying he feels "reserved" about playing. You have to take on board the concerns of the players and others have been speaking out in the last day or so and surely their views should be taken as a priority when it comes to any restart," said Burnham. It's about their health and safety and it's not being dictated to by television or by money and if players are not in a position where there's a clear feeling that they should return then there shouldn't be a return.

It's different for Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp and all the other managers near the top because they have got real quality. Wilder has done a fantastic job.
