Los Che have averaged just under two goals per fixture in their own backyard, so a 2-1 scoreline looks the way to go for this Saturday's derby encounter.

There was a good performance in front. We were good coming from the back, we had some good chances," the Everton boss added. Defensively, we were terrible. We have to improve. There were three goals we could have avoided. It was too easy for Arsenal to score three goals. We had a lot of opportunities at the end of the game to equalise and we did not get it. We are working, we believe in what we are doing.

The Rams have won five and lost just one of the eight games he has been involved in, while his latest goal was his third in as many games for the club. Rooney played a pivotal role in Derby's 1-0 win against Premier League side Crystal Palace in the third round and was once again involved in most of this game's key moments. It was from his corner that the hosts took the lead as David Cornell failed to deal with the delivery and Wisdom pounced on the loose ball to score his first goal for Derby and his first since his debut for Liverpool in a Europa League tie against Young Boys eight years ago.
Technology controversy dominated an otherwise fairly dull, goalless draw at Villa Park, before last season's Premier League champions Manchester City breezed past Arsenal 3-0. But with social distancing measures in force and a lack of fans inside the stadiums, this was a sign of what - for the forseeable future - will be the new normal when it comes to watching Premier League matches. This is how some of those watching found the experience.
Incredibly, their victory over Wycombe at the weekend was their first away win of the season in League One, with seven of their nine previous outings ending in a draw. Considering Tranmere have only lost three home games all season, we think backing a Tranmere Win or Draw Double Chance is a great value offering.
I had anticipated it would not happen. The European Championship began in 1960 with a four-nation finals in which the Soviet Union beat Yugoslavia to lift the trophy. It evolved into an eight-nation tournament in 1980 and in 1996, when it was held in England, it grew to 16 teams. The most recent edition in 2016, in France, included 24 nations for the first time.

Athletic Bilbao forward Inaki Williams says he was racially abused against Espanyol The front page of Spanish sports newspaper Marca on Sunday carried the headline 'Enough of racism'In a separate incident to that involving Williams on Saturday, there were violent clashes outside the Mestalla Stadium before Valencia's win over Barcelona.
From that point Villa’s heads went down and the scoreline continued to go against them. MAN OF THE MATCH Harvey Barnes (Leicester). Jamie Vardy’s introduction sparked off another wave of direct attacking play that Villa couldn’t cope with, and the floodgates opened. While the senior striker was excellent in his substitute appearance, Barnes was key to breaking the deadlock.

The Premier League explained that VAR identified both Coady (white boots on the left side of the penalty box) and Manchester City's Bernardo Silva (to Coady's right) had encroached inside the penalty area before the ball was kicked. Because Coady's encroachment had a material impact, VAR advised the referee that the penalty should be retaken. On the touchline, Guardiola appeared to be screaming for someone else to take it.
The hosts actually won the cup last season in Bulgaria to everyone's surprise as they got to play in the Europa League thanks to that feature but excited really early losing both legs against a strong side from French while in the league last season they only ended in the relegation group but really had no problems in avoiding that faith. But this season they are even 2nd placed in the league but a long distance separating them from the league leaders of Ludogorets.
For the whole of 2019 I haven't received a salary from them," Zambian Jacob Mulenga, who joined Liaoning at the start of 2018, told Reuters by telephone from the Netherlands.

After a swashbuckling start to the season in which they played some excellent football, Steve Cooper's Swansea side have hit a real rough patch of late. The Swans have taken just 3 points from their last 6 outings, of which they've won none and that has them desperate for improvement going into Saturday's game.
It seems to me that in this game you could see a victory of the Pss sleman and it is that neither of these two plays at home for this day and the pss sleman has proven to be a balanced team and better in general than the Barito putera that although it has been a good place are not at home in general for this and there are no statistics that support them in general the PSS has ten overall wins 10 draws and 8 losses instead Barito is with 7 wins 10 draw and 11 losses also have had defensive problems So I like to lose this.

THURSDAY’S BIG STORIES #PlayersTogether Everybody’s coping with their enforced home time in different ways. Some have been baking bread. Others have been spending time with the Duolingo owl. But Jordan Henderson, ever busy even when he’s got nothing to do, is spear-heading an initiative of more than 150 Premier League footballers together to donate money to the NHS.
That all comes with regulation. Unfortunately social media can't be any different from other media and we need to look at how we do that. Colleagues of mine have had conversations with Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. Those conversations have been broadly supportive of what we're trying to say. But maybe there is still a slight difference over how we do it and who does the regulating. I'm sure, like most companies, they'd like to self-regulate but I think it's gone beyond that, given the content is still there and accessible.
It is now planned that the two legs will be played on June 4 and 9, with venues to be decided later. The winners of the two-legged tie will advance to this summer’s Olympics. The games were originally scheduled for March, with China’s home match set to be played in Australia because of how bad the coronavirus outbreak was in China, having originated in Wuhan.
Norwich lost 3-0 at home to Southampton then Everton. Their hopes of staying up have been dented badly and they will be hoping to get some reprieve in the FA Cup. This will be the third Premier League opponent in the FA Cup for Norwich after eliminating Burnley and Tottenham in the last two rounds. Notably, it will be the first time in the FA Cup this season, that they are playing at home and having had a poor home run, they will be keen to make use of this chance.
The German was part of a backline that repelled attack after attack, including a terrific block when Vivianne Miedema was left in space at the far post to preserve Chelsea's lead.

“Brugge” brilliantly spent the regular season. A club from the city of the same name lost only one match for the entire season. Before the start of the playoffs for the championship, the team will have a good start in points in front of other teams. (note in the “playoffs for the championship” the total points of the teams are divided into two and in the case of a fractional number are rounded). Their neighbors from Circle Brugge have not yet guaranteed their participation in the second most important playoff championship in Belgium. A team can take the last place for the remaining two matches and fly out of the Premier League. But in the last four games, the guests won, which allowed them to slip from the bottom of the tournament table. In these matches, the goalkeeper of the guests Moser showed himself perfectly, who made three “crackers” in a row. I think that if guests have a chance at points in this match.
We had no clear-cut striker, so we ended up being ahead of our time by playing what they'd now call a 'false nine'," Roxburgh recalls, proudly. Nevin and Tottenham prodigy Ally Dick were the two furthest forward players, but were detailed to occupy wide areas, with Hearts midfielder Gary Mackay breaking into the space between them. And the plan worked. Albania were thrashed 3-0, and Turkey eased aside 2-0, meaning a draw with the Netherlands would be enough to advance.
Admira and Austria Vienna will face each other in the upcoming match in the Austrian Bundesliga. Admira this season have the following results: 5W, 9D and 14L. Meanwhile Austria Vienna have 9W, 11D and 8L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.

With more than 20 points difference than Man City, Liverpool's Premier League title this season is the result that has been arranged. Many of the world's leading bookmakers, like William Hill or Unibet, have not accepted bets on the Liverpool door to the throne. Some other bookmakers, such as Bet365, have a ratio of up to 1/1000, that is, placing 1,000 to 1 for the coronation of Juergen Klopp's teachers and students.
United have already qualified for the knockout phase. Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has included 14 teenagers in his 18-man squad after choosing to leave most of his senior players at home. With an average age of 20, 10 of those players travelling to Kazakhstan are yet to feature in a first-team game.
In Laporte's absence, Fernandinho has been the mainstay of City's defence but I don't think it is an issue that they have hardly played together at the back as they go into the final part of the season. City's system and style is the same whoever is in the team, so all of their players always understand how they play anyway, however Guardiola rotates things. I actually think their chemistry at the back will be better with Fernandinho and Laporte in the same side but, in any case, the manager will have bigger calls to make with his squad in the next few months.
Ferguson's exuberant touchline celebrations and ballboy hugging also helped to lift the gloom of the Marco Silva era. Already the talk is of Everton following Manchester United's example with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and keeping Ferguson in the job. That may be a case of 'heart ruling head', given Ferguson's lack of management experience, but if Everton emerge victorious from their clash with Solskjaer's side at Old Trafford on Sunday, the temptation will be there.
The club will limit access to the training ground, and they will also make sure that there will only be small windows for the press to contact any of their players and staff. Zinedine ZidaneGetty Images Paper Round’s view: Ordinarily such a move would seem draconian, and it is often easy to be suspicious when clubs cut down on access to the press, but right now it seems that not enough is being done not just to protect players, but club staff and fans.
Both sides come into this game with the sole intention of winning all three points and pulling further away from the relegation zone. However, it won't be an easy task for either team and we believe that the best outcome is a draw here, as the hosts have drawn twice in their last four home games, failing to score in three of them; whilst the visitors have drawn three times in their last five away days.
Added to this is the Klopp factor, under whose leadership the former Stuttgart man could mature and maximise his next stage of development. He would certainly match the playing style of the reigning European champions, who are characterised by intense pressing and high speed in attack. To fill this rotation role Werner would "only" have to displace Divock Origi in the Liverpool pecking order.
Milan deserve a lot more points than they currently have,” Conte told a media conference on Saturday. They are a great team and have added a champion like Ibrahimovic, who brings confidence and experience. He has played for both clubs, so it will be emotional for him. The derby always has hidden dangers and the extra difficulties are intensified, because there is this desire to be on top in the city.

Indeed, Palmeiras were knocked out of the Copa Libertadores by Gremio at the quarter final stage and some 16 points behind Flamengo in the table, it's clear they've been well short of the required standard. Having now failed to win any of their last 4 games, losing the last 2, it's clear Palmeiras' minds are now elsewhere and all concerned just want 2019 to come to a close.

A nine point gap exists between Manchester City and Liverpool, it could reach double figures unless City win this game. Liverpool should get a win over Brighton, so this trip to Newcastle has to end in a win for City. They remain in good form and even without Aguero have the firepower to cause problems for any team. Their opponents lost on Monday and aren't the most consistent team around. Go for City to win and be ahead at both half and full time.
But it only took one season to start the journey back up, via the play-off final at Wembley - and skipper Liam Kelly, who was one of Robins' first signings that summer of 2017, believes much of the credit must go to City's long-suffering fans. Unbelievable away support' - captain Liam Kelly"We saw how big the fan base was when we got promoted from League Two," Kelly told BBC Coventry & Warwickshire.
