Lawro's prediction: 2-1Al's prediction: Bournemouth will have have had a chance to reset and work out exactly what was going wrong for them. It could be a tight game. SUNDAY Newcastle v Sheff Utd (14:00 BST)Newcastle's takeover saga rumbles on and on and on. I feel a bit sorry for their manager Steve Bruce, who has done a really good job - every time he loses he is out of a job, apparently, and it is the same with stories about him being replaced by whoever buys the club.
a tough game coming up where we see Lyon travel to take on Zenit (St Petersburg) with both teams really needing a win but for different reasons-Zenit to win would put them in final 16 of Champions League however a win for Lyon in the French Group G will put them ahead on head to head record-In a close encounter and much at stake we see this game at 1-1 DRAW with both teams restricting there play to steal a win. Lyon under Rudi Garcia have secured 4 wins from there last 5 matches as where Russian Giants Zenit have been far from the Giants losing at home in a game they were expected to win- this game will be too close hence the Draw bet.

You and your neighbours could have been wearing the same kit design, just in a different colour.
Campaigning footballers 'becoming more normal'Players' names have also been replaced on the back of their shirts with 'Black Lives Matter' for the first 12 matches of the restarted season, including United's visit to Tottenham on Friday (20:15 BST).

The Hibees remain as inconsistent as ever, as they went from scoring in 12 consecutive games to failing to do so in three of their last four fixtures. Hibs have only managed to score 12 times away from home for an average of 1.09 goals, whilst conceding 21 on the road- an average of 1.91.
Last month, Mourinho played down reports of a training ground row with Rose after the full back was left out of the goalless draw against Watford. It's not worked out, but full respect to him and what he's doing at the club. He took over with the club 12 points adrift of Chelsea (in fourth place) and now it's four," Rose added.
Injuries have kept the winger out of regular first team action for Diego Simeone’s side so far thisside. Paper Round’s view: The excuse of gastroenteritis is a useful one if there is some subterfuge going on. It is something that could be easily ‘resolved’ if any transfer falls through, and could also be something that causes him to miss training if talks continue to progress until the last minute in the January transfer window.
Away team is one with the bigger tradition in the country, and despite having only amateur section now, they were regular in the Sweden football after the second world war.

CLOSE! As soon as Newcastle get into the game, a corner from Grealish is slammed at goal by the head of Ezri Konsa, but Martin Dubravka stands firm and Newcastle survive! 61' CLOSE!

He alleges false information was spread in relation to money received by him after the 2014 World Cup. Blatter and Platini both deny any wrongdoing. AnalysisBBC Sport's Simon StoneGiven the background to this case, Fifa believe it has an obligation to chase the money. It was confirmed in court there was no basis for Blatter to pay Platini £1. Fifa funds and the world governing body feels it would be leaving itself open to action if it failed to respond in an appropriate manner.
Huesca will host Ponferradina for this fixture of the league. I believe, the hosts have a great chance to get all three points. Huesca are more ambitious team in this league. They are currently on the 4th place with 26 points. True, in last game Huesca lost 3-2 against Fuenlabrada (away). In any case, Huesca is really better team at home. I expect, they to dominate from the start match. Also, we have Ponferradina who's is very average team in this season. True, the guests are undefeated in their last 5 matches. Perhaps, they will try to remain unbeaten. However, this will not be an easy task. My pick - Huesca to win.

Away team is one of the tougher rival in the league, and their recent victories against Rukh and BATE are showing the quality of the squad. Both of those matches were under 2.5 goals, and this is one of the lower average for this season. Torpedo is also very good in the league, and they have beat some of the top rivals in the competition.
Like the seniors competing in the Primera Division, Las Sabanas U20 is disappointing at the tournament for its age. After 14 rounds, Las Sabanas U20 stand on the only Diriangen U20 with 1 point more.

Southampton's concentration and desire was immense. Considering they are safe, and have been for some time, this was one hell of a team performance. However, there was one standout performer and that was Jack Stephens. The Southampton defender was quite brilliant. Manchester City had 29 shots but still couldn't find the back of the net. Gabriel Jesus may be a top striker but he's proving to be no Sergio Aguero.
Consistency hasn't really been their strong point, as they've won back-to-back games only once, but they're very tough to get the better of. Each of their two losses in the last three months have been by just a single goal, while they've conceded more than once in just one of their last ten, keeping four clean sheets in the process.

But only after an absolutely scandalous VAR decision. Ante Rebic had put Milan in front after the hour mark and it looked like being a superb result for the home side, who had lost Theo Hernandez to a red card with 18 minutes to go. But then this happened: This is obviously an idiotic decision. Davide Calabria *wasn’t even looking at the ball* as Ronaldo booted it against his arm.
Moreirense have failed to score at home so far this season and Porto have scored in all of their away games, but the visitors sit 21pts ahead of their hosts and we fully expect that gap to increase when the pair lock horns on Friday. The hosts have only kept clean sheets in 29% of their home games and Porot have only kept clean sheets in 38% of their away games, which suggests both teams have a good chance of scoring this Friday.
When taking all factors into account, Barrow and Dover Athletic should play out a closely-fought contest here. Will be interesting to see how this one goes, with a good chance of a draw. I therefore think that it’s going to be a very even match with a 1-1 score draw at the end of the match have not lost to Dover Athletic in games played away from home for the previous 2 league matches. Are unbeaten in their last 7 away league matches. Are without a win away from home in their last 2 league matches. The previous league contest featuring these clubs was National League match day 50 on 13/04/2019 when it ended Barrow 2-3 Dover Athletic. The referee was Simon Mather
They have ways to control it from an agronomy standpoint," said Immelman. But playing in November, which I have done a number of times, the scoring won't quite be as low as it has been the last few years. Eredivisie aiming for June return Dutch football is aiming to return on June 19 behind closed doors following a meeting of clubs, the Football Association (KNVB) and other stakeholders, according to reports.
When it comes to the Europa League, Sevilla have mastered the tournament well; they go to this game on four straight wins in the competition. They are top of Group A with an unassailable lead and that says all about their quality. With Qarabag’s run away from home, compared to Sevilla’s at home, we expect the Spaniards to dominate this clash. Sevilla have scored two or more in five of six Europa League matches and have four clean sheets in the last five home matches. We are backing the hosts for a win here, and leading in both halves can also be an interesting choice.

He pledged to turn Hertha from a relegation-threatened club to a contender for European spots within two seasons, with the backing of Hertha's major investor Lars Windhorst. But on Tuesday his project crashed before it had even taken flight. Klinsmann claimed there was a lack of trust from the bosses and wanted more control taken away from sports director Michael Preetz and given to him.

Only Turkey international Cenk Tosun was added to Hodgson's attacking options in January but the on-loan Everton striker is injured. In Zaha, Ayew and Christian Benteke, Palace have a strong mix of pacy, mobile and physical frontmen. That trio should have more than enough about them to worry most teams. However, Hodgson's often cautious approach to games can leave them struggling for the service they require.
CLOSE! Aubameyang, narrowly inside the box, looks to curl an effort into the far top corner and is only a few inches away from doing so. GOAL! Bournemouth 1-1 Arsenal (Aubameyang). It's scruffy but Arteta won't care. Aubameyang himself runs at the Bournemouth defence, offloads the ball to Lacazette, he passes to Ozil, he tees up Nelson and his deflected shot runs for Aubameyang to score from close range.

Dijon currently sit 16th in Ligue 1 with one of the most bizarre form sheets you're likely to see. The Mustards have won just two of their last ten Ligue 1 matches, however, rather bizarrely, these two victories came against 3rd placed Rennes and current runaway leaders PSG. Dijon put in incredible performances to beat those two giants but have been unable to recreate that on a regular basis. They've managed to slip up to teams like Amiens (1-1), Metz (2-2) and Brest (0-2) but always somehow play out of their skin against the best teams in France. Outwith the victories over Rennes and PSG, Dijon have narrowly lost to Monaco (0-1) and Lille (0-1), drawn with Montpellier (2-2) and Lyon (0-0).
Southampton climbed out of the Premier League bottom three with a convincing win over a dismal Aston Villa at Villa Park. The result sees the Saints move up a place to 17th in the table as they leapfrog Villa, who drop to 18th after a fourth consecutive defeat. The visitors controlled the game from start to finish and capitalised on some shambolic defending to register their biggest win since their 3-1 victory over Wolves in April.
Ultimately, although Hartlepool are the bigger name of the two, Barrow have been several levels above them and all other sides in the National League this season. The visitors are a consistently impressive and powerful outfit and their prospects look very bright coming into Saturday;s game.
The result saw Valencia slip back down to 10th, where they sit eight points behind leaders Barcelona and Real Madrid. To all intents and purposes it seems as though another fourth-placed finish is the best Los Che can probably hope for this term.
Chelsea v Watford (20:00 BST)I've heard some people lining Chelsea up for a go at the title next season but, defensively, I think they are well short of what is required to be contenders. They have got some excellent midfielders and forwards, but I am not sure that is going to enough to get them a top-four finish this time either. There is a lot of work to be done at the back and they are going to have more hiccups like the one they had when they lost to West Ham in midweek.
