Bournemouth v Leicester (19:00 BST)I know Bournemouth kept a clean sheet against Spurs on Thursday but I don't see that as a turning point for them. Leicester have got their mojo back in attack, so the Foxes have to be big favourites here. Having Jamie Vardy back in the goals is huge for Brendan Rodgers in terms of making the top four - and Vardy is also going for the Golden Boot as the Premier League's top scorer, so he has plenty to play for.
Jordan Sancho and Moussa Dembele are also targets but would be hard to sign, leading Lampard to say: “I think the idea of January being a time to buy players, it’s difficult for everybody – for players coming in, especially if they’re coming from a different league, for the club and for the settlement of the group.
To keep the ball, to score and to learn were the tasks in this competition and we have achieved good results. Jiangsu finished in second place after picking up their first win when they beat hosts Incheon Red Angels 2-0 in the final game of the tournament. The week-long event was launched this year as a pilot scheme to enhance the women's club game on the continent by the Asian Football Confederation and world soccer's governring body FIFA.
Left back Taylor, 26, sustained the injury before halftime in Burnley's 2-0 home defeat by Crystal Palace on Saturday. The initial reaction is it's not a serious one," Dyche told a news conference. We got him off as quick as we could so hopefully that's prevented too much damage. I'll wait and see what the physio tells me.
Going to this game, Gladbach are favorites and the pressure will be on them. They have to deliver at home as they know that is the only way to keep alive their top four hopes. While they have been doing well at home, clean sheets have been rare and this will pose a genuine concern for the hosts. On the other hand, Union Berlin are not the strongest away from home but they have managed to sneak in goals on the road. Playing the third best home side in Bundesliga is however not bound to go their way. Both sides have scored in 12 of Gladbach’s 14 home league matches this term but with their home record, we will be backing the hosts for a 3-1 win.
And now that they're not in Italy, they feel maybe relief they can play in this game. We have to be ready for that," Klopp told reporters. Napoli gave us a proper fight at Anfield last season (in a 1-0 win). We expect them to be strong. Whatever has happened, I don't have a real idea. But if I was a player, I'd be trying to bring the group together and fight the things from outside.

Fellaini tests positive for Covid-19 The big news story this morning is that former Manchester United midfielder and Belgium International, Marouane Fellaini has tested positive for Covid-19.
Mainz has surprisingly beaten Frankfurt by 0-2 in the last Bundesliga round, however they remain a bit weaker than Augsburg in my opinion, considering that they have scored less goals than them and conceded 5 more. Mainz has conceded more than 2 goals per game so far, so scoring more than once seems to be likely for the visitors: Augsburg has won the last 2 clashes vs Mainz scoring a sum of 5 goals and conceding no more than 1, so another win likely for them. Augsburg can reach a safer place with a win and I think they can do it today.
Aubameyang’s versatility would allow him to offer support where it is needed while not having to compromise the amount of first-team action he gets if he leaves Arsenal. Manchester United A slightly odd but persistent rumour has been the suggestion that Manchester United might be interested in bringing Aubameyang to Old Trafford.

The financial reality that affects clubs like Getafe on a regular basis is summed up by Leandro Cabrera leaving in January for bottom of the table Espanyol, who asked the Uruguayan defender what he was earning and, at a stroke, doubled it. Bordalas is learning English and, when asked if he can picture himself working in the Premier League in future, replies without hesititation: "Yes. It's something I have always had in mind and, as a professional, I would love it.
But the penalty appeal was waved away, much to the dismay of a packed Goodison Park. The win for Carlo Ancelotti's side means they are 11th, level on 28 points with Arsenal. Brighton, who remain without a victory at Goodison Park, are four points above the relegation zone in 14th place.

Timed at one minute 55 seconds, Lo Celso's strike was Spurs' earliest goal at the new stadium - and their earliest home goal since Eriksen scored against Manchester United at Wembley in the Premier League in January 2018. We knew it was going to be difficult' - what they saidTottenham boss Jose Mourinho, speaking to BBC Sport, said: "Three-nil was so close so many times. I told my players at half time if we don't score [to make it] 3-0, then if went 2-1 we would be in trouble and it happened.
The Mirror reports that England manager Gareth Southgate was furious with the player’s behaviour, and he is so angry that it could cost the Manchester City defender his place in the England squad - and his apology is not enough to save him. Paper Round’s view: Walker was reckless and extremely foolish, and it has put the health of other people at risk as well as himself.
After their excellent effort at Ashton Gate, where they matched a team from the level above stride for stride, the Shrews deserve more respect ahead of a home match. If anything, as they hit the post late on, Shrewsbury were ever so slightly unlucky not to avoid the replay, so it's not difficult to see them doing the business at New Meadow. At the prices, 'Shrewsbury Draw No Bet' stands out as the best option. The hosts are very tough to beat at home, while they have a promising home record in this competition. In contrast, Bristol City underwhelmed in the original tie and haven't exactly covered themselves in glory on the road of late either.
This game is very important for both teams. C. Zvezda Mali Mokri Lug is second bottom team with just 17 points so far but Radnicki Obrenovac have just 3 points more. Both teams are in deep fighting against relegation and both need just to win. For home side this is last train if you ask me. So I expect they will finally score goal as at last two games they did not score a single goal. In game like this players must give more than than 100 percent and in game like this one you can see everything. Over 2.5 goals for me.
The world has turned on its head these past few months, things we took for granted abruptly taken away. Football, at least, is to return some semblance of normality.

There will be debate over fan noise ad nauseumWhen the Premier League returns on 17 June, viewers will have the option to switch on artificial crowd noise, which has been trialled in Bundesliga coverage.

Lugano have a lot to play for with anything other than a win meaning they are eliminated from European competition for this season whilst Copenhagen have to keep the pace at the top of the group or face a must win game in their final group game at home to Malmo. There is a lot on the line but we see this being a really tight game and are predicting that these two won't be able to be separated and home advantage should see Lugano secure a 1-1 draw.

The ball boy then gave him the ball back, prompting Cuellar to square up to him before dramatically collapsing after being nudged. Far from eliciting sympathy from referee Antonio Mateu Lahoz, Cuellar was given his marching orders.

Sheffield have a poor away run but they head to this game on a better run compared to Nottingham. Sheffield have also been dominant against Nottingham in their recent meetings and that too will give them an edge. Nottingham have also not done well at home in recent matches; it adds to their general bad run in recent matches and given the seem to struggle against Sheffield, we will not pick on them for a win. This match is also not famous for draws, so going by recent form, we will stick with a Sheffield Wednesday win.

Bundesliga 1. Bayer Leverkusen will host team Wolfsburg. Bayer Leverkusen are unbeaten in the last 12 games. Their shape is not so bad. Guests did a win and defeat in the last 2 games played. They are out of their best shape. But my bet will be on Wolves with A +0.75. Wolfsburg didn't lose here in the last two h2h games. Bayer Leverkusen and Wolfsburg aren't playing h2h draw games about 4 years. And it is very possible that today the winning streak of hosts will be interrupted. Odds are so good to check this way ! I recommend to try this bet with me !
