With the host's defensive vulnerabilities a major factor, the over 1.5 Arsenal team goals market holds great appeal this week at the prices quoted, though our correct score prediction forecasts a 2-2 draw at the Stade Maurice Dufrasne.

Good match of the second division of football in Turkey where the Osmanlispor team will be receiving Adana Demirspor, two sets that could be said are on equal terms as they are at a fairly acceptable level and will surely give us a very close duel and with many options for both of them so that I could end up matched that is why I will play it in this match with a victory and in case of a tie bet not valid in favor of the local team of the osmanlispor, good luck to all gentlemen and we hope to hit this forecast from today
What an incredible performance for a young player," Lampard said afterwards. He was a calm head in that first five or 10 minutes. He's a throwback of a midfielder. Can you put your foot in? Yes. Can you make angles to play the passes? Yes. He's only slight in stature but he's huge in personality. He deserves people to talk about him after a performance like that. Midfielder Ross Barkley, who scored the second goal of the night at Stamford Bridge, echoed his manager's praise for his young team-mate.
The away team are used to playing in low scoring matches and the home team have also seen some of their own low scoring matches as well. With the away team they have seen 3 matches in their past 5 where only 1 goal was scored. So it is not uncommon to see low amounts of goals and only 1 team scoring in their matches. They are good at defending well at times and really do like to slow down their matches where possible. Can see this match not having many good chances and even shots on target for both teams

The hosts have had major problems when it comes to taking on the elite sides in Serie A. It’s always a factor which promoted sides struggle with. Lecce have played seven of the league's current top 10, with a surprise draw against Juventus their only point so far. They've been beaten by three of those seven in their previous five home games, while they're winless in seven coming into this one. Cagliari can prove their European credentials by following their rivals’ lead.
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.
We had a great journey. You can't help but feel a bit to blame because we were out there but when I look back I gave 110% and so did all the players. I think it's so clear what Mauricio meant to the players. He helped me grow a lot. I came here as an 18-year-old and had my ups and downs here. We owe (Pochettino) a lot of thanks.
Few journeys to the top of professional football can compete with the story of Alphonso Davies - the Bayern Munich youngster who starred against Chelsea in the Champions League on Tuesday. Born in a refugee camp in Ghana in 2000, his parents had fled fighting in the second Liberian civil war. They then moved to Canada as refugees when the player was five years old. Davies joined the Vancouver Whitecaps youth set-up in 2015 at the age of 14, before making his MLS debut a year later, and his big break came in the summer of 2018.

However, a senior source has told the BBC there is merit in the proposals and they could be used as a template that can be amended slightly to gain support from clubs and countries alike. The ECA is trying to increase both the size and scope of what will be three European competitions by 2024 as many clubs outside the major leagues feel they do not get enough games. Europe's five most high-profile domestic leagues - in England, Spain, Italy, France and Germany - are providing all 16 teams for the knockout stages of this season's Champions League; it is the first time that has happened in the competition's history.
And then there was the story that his contract was terminated by Boca Juniors in 2016 after the manager Guillermo Barros Schelotto caught him smoking in the dressing room. Obnoxious bad behaviour or grist to the rock folklore mill, depending on your point of view. Speaking on his return, he told Banfield's website: "I am very happy, in Banfield they treat me very well and make me feel important. One could conclude that sounds a little bit like a dig at some of his former clubs.
Game of two teams that are forcing underscore, and not many goals scored on their matches. Even in the reserve competition, with a lot of bigger average, than in the top tier, two rivals are one of the with the lowest results. They will face in the close fight, where host will search to get among the top rivals, and Rukh is trying to avoid the defeat.
I have to say congratulations to Akram Afif. The award is) well deserved because his performance was amazing in both sides," said Xavi, referring to the national team lifting the Asian Cup and Al Sadd's run in the Champions League. It was a big regret we couldn't reach the final, but he was making a difference in the national team and for the club, so I think it's well deserved.
Senegalese winger Mamadou Lamine Gueye struck the decisive goal in the 117th minute, giving Pau the lead for the third time in the game. Pau broke the deadlock midway through the first half through Moustapha Name while Yankuba Jarju restored their advantage right before halftime after an equaliser by Bordeaux's Josh Maja.
Olimpija is the leader of the league with 42 points and they have 20 more than Domzale which is 6`th. Olimpija has 6-2-1 and the only loss came against Maribor. The team is very prolific this season and they have the best scorer Vukusic who scored 16 in 19 matches. The only concern is that the best midfield player Cekici is not available today. Olimpija has played 4 of the last 5 home games over 3.5 goals. Domzale is in poor form though they won the previous two. They conceded even 16 goals in the past 5 away matches but they usually score aswell. The teams have played their last 5 matches over 3.5 goals and more.
Liverpool have been on a bad run that has them losing three games in a row with two of those games being high value games. They will be looking for redemption by a Goodwin at the hands of Bournemouth who are league strugglers and are in the relegation zone. Bournemouth will be seeking to obtain valuable points that will help in their league quest .I predict a straight win mainly despite Bournemouth being the ones who are in dire need of the points I think Liverpool are also in need of points that will safeguard their integrity.I predict a Liverpool straight win
we are going to go for a draw. The visiting team today in this match the truth is that a team that comes from a bad run comes from losing its last match 1 to 3 being clearly superior so I think that today it must get at least a point. They usually dominates the matches a lot and I think that even if he plays outside his stadium, they can win on the part of the local team, it is a team which in his stadium is quite solid but I also think that he can lose comes from winning 3 to 1 in Cup but in that game I saw it quite inferior and being a zero handicap I think today the away team can win
After clearing from their own box, Scotland worked the ball to Alan Morton on the left and the Rangers forward's teasing centre was guided into the net by Huddersfield's Jackson. The combination between the wingers would pay further dividends after the interval but, by then, the visitors would be two goals ahead, Preston's Alex James having flitted past two men before flashing in Scotland's second just before the break.

Alonso chases a ball into the area. Gazzaniga flies off his line, misses his kick completely and crashes straight into the Chelsea man. VAR checks - and eventually it's a PENALTY! Willian steps up and sends the keeper the wrong way. TOTTENHAM RED CARD! It's another intervention from VAR as Son is giving his marching orders for kicking up into the chest of Rudiger while the Spurs man was on the floor.
Burnley hosted Crewe twice in this reserve league and they won both games winning first with 1-0 and last season back in December last year they won with 3-2 the game, I was a bit tempted to take the over line here as Burnley does concede when playing games at home but the guests have no less than 3 defeats in a row in this league at this moment and the hosts are quite a decent home side so will back the home win to happen for a 3rd time in a row here as odds are decent to be taken.
Scott Robertson, 18, made his club debut, and Karamoko Dembele, 16, came off the bench. Lennon's squad had players in it aged 16, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22. It is an unarguable truth, spoken by many a Celtic boss, that a manager at Parkhead is not allowed to lose a game without a storm ensuing. This was a rare exception. Celtic lost and the only reasonable way to react to it was to shrug. It didn't matter.

RACISM DOMINATES THE NEWS YET AGAIN Players in the top two divisions of Dutch football will stand still for the first minute of matches this weekend as a protest against racism, the top flight Eredivisie has said. An anti-racism message will be also displayed on scoreboards during the opening minute at Eredivisie and Eerste Divisie games and an extra minute will be added to first half injury time.
Messi capitalised on Manuel Akanji's defensive blunder, feeding Luis Suarez in the box, the Uruguayan making no mistake from close range. Then Suarez turned provider after Mats Hummels gave the ball away at the back, feeding Messi this time, the Argentine rifling across Roman Burki. Barcelona dominated a shellshocked Dortmund from then on, and Antoine Griezmann - a first-half substitue on for the injured Ousmane Dembele - was on the receiving end of another Messi master pass, finding the back of the net with a well-taken finish for his first goal in five weeks.
Borussia Dortmund vs Borussia M'gladbach Marco Reus (Borussia Dortmund) right footed shot from a difficult angle and long range on the left is saved in the bottom right corner. 89'. free kick won.
I think we played sensational in that game. Obviously I am talking about the game because after that we lost at the Camp Nou and didn't go through but, in terms of that night, when you ask me about the favourite game, probably that one. Football hero growing up Current Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola was the player Cesc Fabregas most admired when growing up"Pep Guardiola. We used to play in the same position.
Lille may have won their last two games in the league with just 1-0 but they were tough opponents from my point of view hosting first Dijon who despite being a relegation candidate at this point did defeat PSG at home 2-1 while being even bottom of the league at the time of that game, so not that easy win, and second game last round they played away at Champions League side Lyon also in quite decent form back then and now once more 1-0, surprising to everyone they kept a clean sheet.

There could not be a bigger contrast between the first two Bundesliga derbies between teams from east and west Berlin. November's maiden meeting saw a winning goal for Union Berlin in 10 minutes of time added on after raucous fans threw flares on to the pitch. Friday's return game with Hertha Berlin at the Olympic Stadium will be behind closed doors because of the coronavirus pandemic. We all remember the match in November.
It's the isolation life of living on Zoom!" Jepson told BBC Sport. The staff and the squad are having regular catch-ups. We have staff meetings most mornings. We have technical meetings where we go over footage of the opposition and are reviewing the last eight games we have got to play. I've been putting profiles together and looking at recruitment for next season - what players we are bringing into the club.
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says having Phil Foden in his squad means he does not need to buy a replacement for David Silva this summer. Spanish playmaker Silva, 34, will leave City at the end of the season after a stellar decade at the club. Foden, 20, has struggled to get game time in the Premier League but sparkled in Monday's 5-0 win over Burnley. Guardiola said: "When David said it was his last year I told the board we have Phil, so we don't have to invest.
I really not see any problems for guests in this round in Czech Republic and I believe that this team will very very easy beat today's rival with at least 3-0. So, home team is last on the table and they are really poor this season. It is natural to expect that they will be next season in 2nd division and it is not real to expect that they can make surprise in this duel. Slavia Praha is in last round beat Jablonec even 5-0 at home, so this team is in fantastic form. Over is ok and real to try also.
Emery's side, who were second best throughout, were booed off at the final whistle after delivering a disjointed performance which suggested they may struggle to compete for a place in the top four this season. Danny Ings' early goal had put the visitors in front, with the forward catching the home defence asleep to race onto Ryan Bertrand's free-kick and score with a right-foot shot from close range.
Arsenal's legal team have been in contact with their Manchester City counterparts over Mikel Arteta becoming the next Gunners boss, but there is still no agreement in place. Arteta has said his farewells to City staff, with the expectation being that he will be unveiled on Friday.

It is only five weeks since Watford got their first Premier League home win of the season - against United. They have lost only once in seven games since. Defeat by Nigel Pearson's men would be a body blow. Losing to League One Tranmere would be a catastrophe given Rovers have lost three successive home games in 2020 - to Coventry, Leicester Under-21s and Ipswich - by a combined score of 8-3. Fan furyThere will be no repeat of the mass pre-final whistle exit of Old Trafford from the United fans at Vicarage Road or Prenton Park on Sunday but a repeat of the songs belted out against the Glazer family and Woodward cannot be ruled out.
JuventusJuventus are in the Champions League knockout stages for the sixth successive season, their longest ever run. In the last five campaigns, they have made it past the round of 16 on four occasions, only failing to do so in 2015-16 when they were eliminated by Bayern Munich (6-4 aggregate). Juventus have lost only one of their last seven Champions League away games in the knockout phase (W4 D2), a 2-0 defeat by Atletico Madrid last season in the last 16.
