If he is banned, Ancelotti could miss Sunday's match at former club Chelsea. The 60-year-old said after the 1-1 draw at Goodison Park that he was not disrespectful to Kavanagh, whose initial decision to award the stoppage-time goal was reversed by the video assistant referee because Everton's Gylfi Sigurdsson was lying offside in front of United goalkeeper David de Gea. Ancelotti said he also had a subsequent, private conversation in which he spoke to the referee "calmly".
They play a lot of games in their domestic league and Croatian cup, as they already had more than 20 games in the last 5 years. Throughout their history, both teams managed to get some wins, with this derby being one of the closest ones. In their last 20 matches, Dinamo Zagreb won 10 times while Hajduk Split was celebrating 5 times. Other than that, we saw 5 games ended in a draw. All of that combined tells us that this game has to be a very close one. Currently, Dinamo Zagreb is at the top of the table with 34 points from 14 games played.
However, following news Laporte is back in training, City could also bring in Barcelona and Real Madrid target Skriniar as they target a brighter second half of the season. Bastoni, Skriniar, Getty ImagesGetty Images Paper Round’s view: Laporte’s return will be the proverbial ‘new signing’, but City must strengthen after failing to do so when Vincent Kompany left the club.
Bosnia host Northern Ireland in the Euro 2020 playoffs on March 26 and should they win, they will face either Slovakia or Ireland at home on March 31 for a berth in the 24-nation tournament to be held in 12 cities across Europe. The 71-year-old Bajevic took over from Croatian Robert Prosinecki, who was sacked after Bosnia failed to win an automatic 2020 berth through their qualifying group.

Manchester United have been far from secure defensively this season, though they have looked more comfortable in home games against weaker opposition in cup competitions, keeping clean sheets against Astana, Partizan Belgrade and AZ at Old Trafford already this term.
Dutchman Krul saved two spot-kicks in the shootout, the second from Gedson Fernandes to send Norwich into the quarter-finals for the first time in 28 years. The dramatic win followed Norwich's 1-0 victory over Leicester City last weekend that fuelled belief they can claw their way out of the bottom three.
However, Arteta has earned rave reviews for his work at Manchester City with Pep Guardiola, most notably from the City boss himself. The Spaniard has long been tipped to make the step into management and some believe that he will be the person City look to when it comes time to replace Guardiola. If Ljungberg fails will Arsenal really put their faith in a different rookie manager? Josep Guardiola, Mikel Arteta, Manchester CityGetty Images CARLO ANCELOTTI Age – 60 Current club – Napoli Next Arsenal manager odds – 5/1 Ancelotti is with Napoli and was initially at far longer odds than these before reports emerged that he is under consideration from the Arsenal board.
Sheffield Wednesday looked to be in turmoil during the summer, with the shock departure of Steve Bruce leaving the club shaken days before the start of the season. However, they made the move for Garry Monk and so far it has paid off for the Owls.
While Torino only secure an average of 1.22 points per home game, which is below the league average of 1.40 points, their guests average just 0.44 points per away game and are yet to secure a single win on the road. Torino concede an average of 1.33 goals per home game and Genoa concede an average of 2.67 goals per away game which is why we have backed a 2-1 win for the home side on Thursday.
It might make more sense for Real to view Haaland as a long-term target, with a view to realistically signing him in 2021 instead. Benzema still has a couple of more years in him, so it would make sense for both clubs to postpone any potential deal until next year. Maybe Jovic could be used as a pawn in the deal as his sensational form which led to his Madrid move was in the Bundesliga with Eintracht Frankfurt.
Liverpool is the best team in the world at the moment and when you're linked with that team it makes me very proud," the Germany international told Viasport. But I know that Liverpool play a lot of good players and I have to improve myself to learn much more things to get on this level to play there.
As renowned Observer journalist Hugh McIlvanney wrote afterwards: “At times, it appeared that Mr Jennings would give a free-kick only on production of a death certificate. Webb recalled later to the Daily Mail: “Every time he went for his pocket and you thought he was going to book somebody he pulled out his hanky, blew his nose and said, ‘Get on with it, will you?'”Harris would more or less finish the job on Gray before the first half was out, catching the winger on the back of his left knee, leaving him with an injury that restricted him for the remainder of the game and crucially robbed Leeds of arguably their most talented attacking player.
You just play the game. Dalglish's last spell as a player was with KilmarnockUpon returning from Houston for a brief spell at Kilmarnock in 2008, he knew it was time to hang up the boots. My body was broken, I couldn't even get through training. That's when I knew I was done. It wasn't fair on anybody for me to keep playing. He went back Houston for a coaching role with the Dynamos academy and has been in America ever since, criss-crossing the country with moves to different clubs and jobs.
Hearts have slipped four points adrift at the bottom of the Scottish Premiership after a crushing 1-0 defeat at relegation rivals St Mirren. Daniel Stendel's side could have moved above their hosts with a win, but produced a meek performance in Paisley. Jonathan Obika's strike early in the second period was enough to separate the sides and move St Mirren up to ninth place and six points clear. It was a first defeat in five for Hearts, who rarely looked like scoring.
this fixture is between two capable teams one a Getafe team who are eyeing a champions league fixture next season and one ajax team who are seeking to redeem themselves from a slow season. These two teams are fully capable of a win but emphasis needs to be placed on the fact that a straight win prediction will be a tricky prediction therefore this has prompted a goals prediction .I am going to go with a cautious prediction that puts much emphasis on a single goal being the main prediction. However both teams are capable of more goals regardless n
But the game was to turn on a remarkable minute of VAR reviewed action on the hour mark. Burnley appealed in vain for a penalty, arguing that Adam Smith had handled a McNeil cross -- the resulting counter-attack ended with Callum Wilson feeding Harry Wilson who clipped past Nick Pope. But VAR ruled that Smith had indeed handled -- cancelling out the Bournemouth goal and awarding Burnley a penalty which Rodriguez converted to make it 2-0 after 61 minutes when moments earlier the score had stood at 1-1.
Zagadou volleyed in from a corner in the 52nd minute and 19-year-old Haaland tapped in for his ninth league goal in six Bundesliga matches in the 66th to continue his sensational scoring run since joining in the winter.

Chelsea down Spurs to strengthen grip on fourth VAR authorities admit error over Lo Celso horror tackle reprieve In the 16th minute Giroud converted a well-taken half-volley and, overall, produced a well-rounded commanding display as Chelsea's solo striker, tracking back to help the team out defensively and proving a handful for Tottenham who struggled to contain him despite fielding three centre backs.

Arsenal sit 10th in the Premier League following a home defeat to Manchester City last Sunday, when Arteta was in the dugout for the visitors. The first thing is to change the energy," said Arteta. Last week I was here and felt a bit down. I have to get all the staff and everyone with the same mindset. We have to build the right culture. It's my job to convince everybody that this is how we are going to live.
I'm aware that not everyone can or will recover from this virus, so I urge the football and sporting community to continue to act responsibly and look out for the health of others.

West Ham are in deep trouble going into this game. They are a place and three points above the relegation zone and that's after spending a fortune in the summer. With their next three games against Chelsea, Arsenal and Wolverhampton Wanderers, the Hammers could easily slip into the bottom three soon. Chelsea are fourth in the table and their last two league defeats have been by Liverpool and Manchester City. They are in good form at home and can be backed to get the win here.
All things considered, we see good value in backing an away win on Wednesday and feel it's by far the best way to play as far as the betting is concerned. Real have plunged in an average of 2.77 goals a game over their current unbeaten streak and we think they'll have no issues in putting a couple past Brugge, with a 2-0 margin of away victory on the cards.

Virgil Van Dijk headed against the bar for Liverpool but Anfield was stunned in the 54th when Hammers substitute Pablo Fornals turned a low cross from Declan Rice into the far corner.

It would be "understandable" if Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola left the club after they were banned from the Champions League, says ex-Chelsea boss Ruud Gullit. Uefa has banned City from European competition for two years for "serious" financial fair play breaches. City, who were also fined 30m euros (£25m), say they intend to appeal. I can understand [if Pep leaves] because he wants to play Champions League," Gullit told BBC Sport.
Bournemouth have become the first side to lose five consecutive top-flight meetings with Liverpool by a margin of three or more goals. They have lost those five games by a combined score of 17-0. The Reds did not allow Bournemouth a shot on target on Saturday, which is only the second time they have done so in a league match since the start of last season (also against Brighton in January). The Cherries have lost five straight matches for the first time in the top flight.

It is a truly intriguing between the two leading sides in League One at Portman Road, but the bookies clearly favour the hosts and it is an assessment we just cannot agree with. With the visitors at the peak of their powers at the moment, we think that there is every chance of a positive result for them and with the generous odds available, backing them on the “Double Chance” market seems to be a wise investment.
JEDDAH, Jan 12 (Reuters) - Real Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde earned unlikely praise from Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone for a deliberate foul that denied Atletico a late scoring chance and potentially cost them Sunday's Super Cup final. The final, which Real won 4-1 on penalties, was goalless with five minutes left of extra time when Atletico forward Alvaro Morata raced towards goal with a glorious chance to score.

That interruption came after then club leader 'Ma' Bryson was given an indefinite ban for abusing a referee. She was feisty," says Smith. So they waited until she went on holiday then they banned her. Bryson had replaced a gentleman known only as Mr Cleghorn, who founded the club in 1940 after rounding up a disparate group of kids playing in the streets in the Hutchison area of Edinburgh, kitting them out in a set of yellow and black Aberdeen jerseys, and moulding them into a team.
