Valverde will surely be disappointed that they allowed their grip to slip. So was this a point gained or two dropped? MAN OF THE MATCH - Martin Odegaard (Real Sociedad) The on-loan Real Madrid midfielder has been a revelation for Real Sociedad this season and this was yet another demonstration of Odegaard’s quality.
Odds may be dropping on the away win here but Roda won really just 4 of 21 league games so far this season and when they hosted Jong Utrecht at home earlier this season the game ended in a 3-1 win for the Jong Utrecht side who are also a solid home side with a record of 5-4-1 at home this season even though they are coming after a 2-1 loss at Graafschap but that is a top team while Road is not.
Similar, like for their senior squad, those rivals are not playing with lot of goals on their previous games. It is for one level, at least, more than in the main selections, but still not with such a high scores like the other young rosters in this league.
Fleetwood Town will host Tranmere Rovers for this fixture of the league. Hosts are favorites in this game. Fleetwood are more ambitious team in this campaign. Perhaps, the hosts have the potential to get the victory in this game. However, the hosts have highly variable results. I think, the hosts will have to invest a great effort in this game. In any case, this will not be an easy task. Also, we have Tranmere who' is not very good team in this league. Yeah, Tranmere are more vulnerable team. However, they will be in this game to try to pick up all three points because they are in danger to getting to the relegation zone. My pick - Tranmere Rovers to win.
Preussen Munster and Ingolstadt will face each other in the upcoming match in the 3. Liga in Germany. Preussen Munster this season have the following results: 8W, 10D and 13L. Meanwhile Ingolstadt have 13W, 10D and 8L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Villa have lost just two of their last 22 meetings with Norwich on home soil. (W14 D6) Norwich have conceded on average 2.05 goals in Premier League games. Teemu Pukki has six goals in his last eight games for club and country. Dean Smith and Aston Villa have been pulled into a relegation scrap in recent weeks with four straight losses including a damaging 3-1 loss at home to Southampton last weekend with the Saints overtaking Villa and leaving them 18th and in the drop zone on 15 points.
Three points against Ross County would have taken them above Kilmarnock and into seventh. It would have meant they were level on points with Hibs in sixth and just four points off Livingston in fifth. Quite a turnaround for a side who were bottom of the table just a few months ago. Billy McKay's late equaliser doesn't change that a great deal, but it will hurt Wright that dropping those two points in Dingwall was entirely of their own doing.
There are manager’s more qualified than Ljungberg who could take the Arsenal job full-time, just as there were with Solskjaer and United, and so it is difficult to predict what baring this audition will have on the Kroenkes’ thought process. But for now, Ljungberg’s at the wheel. So long as he doesn’t steer them into further trouble, he’ll be a contender whenever a decision is made.

The rule adds that "climbing onto a perimeter fence and/or approaching the spectators in a manner which can cause safety and/or security issues" is a bookable offence, although in Janderson's case, this was borderline. The player climbed steps, rather than fencing, to reach the fans and it was open to interpretation as to whether his presence could have been a security risk.
Fulham has fail to win in last round against Millwall, result was a draw, but a good news for their team is that A. Mitrovic was returned into squad and he scored a goal in last round. As you know, he is top scorer in Championship, also Cavaleiro and Reid will be in attack for the host. Fulham is at third place at standings, and they are eager to reach direct promotion in current season. Barnsley is at the bottom of standings, without much chances to improve their position, their defense is one of the worst in Championship, and things to be even worse for visitors in this duel they will be without standard defender Oduor. Victory for Fulham with more than 1.5 goals AH
Brescia have failed to score in their last three matches in the league, while the hosts have scored exactly one goal in four of their last five home matches in Serie A. We’re going for a 1-0 victory for the home side as our correct score prediction, as Brescia have lost by a single goal in 60% of their league defeats this term.
Botev Plovdiv will play at home ground against Lokomotiv Plovdiv in a derby match in the Bulgarian Professional first league. Home team are in a very good shape and I am sure that home team can take at least a point in this match. They have won their last 7 matches and sitting on 8th spot right now. They will not want to lose the derby match.

Los Leones were undone by an inspired hat-trick from veteran winger Joaquin and despite their best efforts, goals from Inaki Williams and Yuri weren't quite enough to salvage a point for Gaizka Garitano's side.
Racism claims mar Chelsea win at Tottenham Video - Lampard promises Rudiger support after alleged racist incident00:29 'WE SHALL TAKE THE STRONGEST POSSIBLE ACTION' Rudiger was caught by a petulant kick from Son Heung-min in the 61st minute, which saw the South Korean sent off after a long consultation with VAR.
This should be another victory for league leaders Chelsea. They are the only unbeaten side in the table and the last four matches in this league have all been won. They are the league's top away scorers and can improve that record with a win over a Birmingham side that has already lost four league games this season.
Atletico need a win to be sure of sailing to the second round. Atletico are on a poor run heading to this game; they have managed just one win in their last eight matches. They have lost their defensive mettle, and have just one clean sheet in their last four matches. Upfront, they have also been a bit shaky; while they have scored in seven of their last 10 matches, Atletico have failed to score in their last three matches.
It wasn't right to push to continue the season, even if we thought we could finish in the automatic spots," Tagg said. Unity of the league is very difficult because you have some very entrepreneurial people with very fixed determined objectives, so for them to agree unanimously at the time was excellent. Football is a tough game - there are some tough individuals in there that have put in some small fortunes.
Colombian international Ospina was caught in possession inside his own box after 82 minutes, allowing Ciro Immobile to curl in his 20th league goal of the season. Gennaro Gattuso’s Napoli side came close to scoring as Piotr Zielinski hit the post and Lorenzo Insigne was denied three times by Lazio goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha, but the coach was consigned to his third defeat in his four games in charge.
Ultimately, it's hard to look past Barrow in this fixture and they come into it as big favourites. The hosts have been by far the most impressive side in the division this season, have huge momentum behind them and on home soil, will fancy their chances of dispatching of the visitors.
Backa Topola play away to Radnicki where a balanced match is expected. The first leg in Senta ended with 2: 0 in favor of the then host TSC Backa. It is obvious that this Serbian-Hungarian TSC team is strong. They proved that they are a solid team. They are undefeated at home, while they also play great away from home.
Palace's games have been marked by a notable low scoring pattern this season, as evidenced by their haul of just 19 goals in 21 Premier League fixtures. Under 2.5 goals were registered in a whopping seven of their last eight games, and in 15 of their matches in total since the summer.
Paper Round's view: The battle for Sancho's signature is going to be a nail-biter. The England international is being touted at around £120 million, despite only being 19 years old. Sancho has been one of the most exciting attacking wide players over the past two years and he has gathered plenty of interest in his home nation, even though he plays in the Bundesliga.
All things considered, we like the look of backing the visitors on the Draw No Bet line this Thursday and feel it provides good value and current prices. St Johnstone have been showing signs of improvement of late and having won 8 of the last 10 meetings between the two, we think they'll be able to grind out a narrow 1-0 win.
Captains of Premier League clubs have held talks over several days about possible moves to give money to charity during the coronavirus pandemic. The talks, led by Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson, took place shortly before the Premier League announced it would ask players to take a 30% pay cut in order to protect jobs. Players across the league have faced calls to take a pay cut. Crystal Palace winger Andros Townsend has said players are "an easy target".

We’re confident that Peterborough will win on Saturday and have predicted a final scoreline of 3-0. The hosts head into the game as the form favourites against a Bolton side that have lost six of their seven away games this season. Peterborough have been strong at home and of late have been scoring goals and keeping clean sheets which bodes well heading into Saturday’s clash.

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.
Here we have a duel of two teams that play much better away than at home. This is especially true of Malmo. They have had 5 wins in their last 5 away games. The Swedish Championship is not currently played and this could be a major problem for Malmo. They played a few preparatory matches before this match but their opponents were certainly not as good as Wolfsburg.
With the league due to be completed by July 30, there are potential instances of three games played over 120 hours, which players worry could cause injury and fatigue. Pedro's Chelsea ordeal Chelsea's Spanish winger Pedro has explained the difficulties he's having as he lives in England while his family in Spain.
The support we had at Old Trafford was part of the magic of the day. They were so loud, it felt like we were back at Elland Road and it helped us show we meant business and were there for a reason, not just to play for pride and avoid a heavy defeat. It had been the same when I had spoken to our fans beforehand too - they made it clear about the rivalry between the two clubs and how much it would mean to them if we won.

Off the crossbar! So close to being a second Espanyol goal! Sanchez unleashed a strike from about 25 yards out, Oblak got fingertips to it and the ball comes crashing off the Atletico Madrid crossbar! 47’ GOAL! Espanyol 1-1 Atletico Madrid: Wow! What a goal and what a response from Atletico Madrid at the start of the second half! Saul strikes a shot on the full volley from the edge of the box and the ball flashes past Lopez and into the back of the net! That is a peach from Saul! 61’ Did that hit the post?! Felix's cut back picks up a deflection off Lopez and then spins on to the base of the post! The angle was too tight for Morata to force it over the line under pressure.
After their industrious and impressive end to the first half, it would have given them a deserved lead. As it stands, Oxlade-Chamberlain’s goal changed the entire match. MAN OF THE MATCH Jordan Henderson (Liverpool): Henderson has come to the fore in recent weeks and the Liverpool captain put in another fine performance today.
Everton have no clean sheet in their last seven matches. Everton have managed five wins in the last 15 matches. Leicester have five straight away wins. Leicester have two straight wins over Everton. Leicester are unbeaten in the last 10 matches. Everton are set to host Leicester City in one of the quarter final matches of the League Cup in one of the two clashes featuring Premier League sides.
Adelaide United and Newcastle Jets will face each other in the upcoming match in the A League. Adelaide United this season have the following results: 9W, 0D and 11L. Meanwhile Newcastle Jets have 4W, 6D and 9L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
The reality is vastly different though. Both Aston Villa and Norwich find themselves in the relegation zone, while Sheffield United are flying high in 5th position. However, we’re only halfway through the season and there is plenty that could change in the coming months.
I wanted to risk that Mikel Arteta to continue winning as a boss but remember Crystal Palace defeats have come from the top three ranked premier league this season that is from Liverpool, Leicester city and Manchester city. And do playing with who this season are out of form though won against Manchester United under Mikel Arteta management a straight win can also be risky because Crystal Palace win came from teams that also though are middle table ranked but are not easy to crack Burnley, Bournemouth and West Ham who since David Moyes joined their form have increased so much. That is why I am going with number of goals
Paralimni is not playing well in this season and suffering in away matches very much. But they have won their last match against Limassol by 3-1 goals and they will try to improve as they are currently on 11th place on the table. AEK Larnaca have played well before the break, but this team is not so dominant in away trips. AEK Larnaca have just won 2 away matches in this season and it will be very tough against the hosts, so I think that Paralimni has a good chance for a good result here in this match. I expect them to avoid defeat.
