You get to a point in football where you are not surprised any more, but I would say this one surprised me and took me back a bit," the striker said. Hayden Mullins and head of goalkeeping Graham Stack will take charge of Watford against City and Deeney denied he will have any involvement in team selection. Troy will not be picking teams because I have read that as well," Deeney said. I am player-coach apparently.
Stjarnan today will be meeting with the away team Value and this game we have given this team to record an over of 2.5 total goals as looking at the last games this two teams have played together they are very used of scoring over of to 2.5 total goals and so this making us to be very sure with this prediction
Hearts and Partick Thistle say it is "incredulous" that the Scottish FA has charged them for taking legal action to prevent their relegations. A court referred the case to arbitration which is due take place in the coming days. The SFA say by taking the case to court instead of arbitration in the first instance, the clubs breached their rules. Both clubs have already requested disciplinary proceedings be delayed.

Dutch teams to halt play for a minute in racism protest Play at all professional football matches in the Netherlands will be halted for a minute this weekend to protest against racism, after a match was suspended last week following the abuse of a player.
With both sides approaching this match in plenty of confidence but both showing plenty of vulnerabilities, the win-draw-win market appears to be best avoided. Instead, there is something which stands out and that is that we expect both of these sides to have something to cheer in this match. As discussed, fixtures at Whaddon Road has seen plenty of goals scored already this season and given that two thirds of the matches there have finished with both teams scoring, we think backing the same thing to happen again this time around is the way to go.
Uruguay striker Edinson Cavani has told Paris St-Germain he wants to leave the club after "an approach" by Spanish side Atletico Madrid. The 32-year-old has been limited to 14 first-team outings this season after Mauro Icardi's arrival on a season-long loan from Inter Milan in the summer. It's true that today he asked to leave," said PSG sporting director Leonardo after a 1-0 win over Lorient in the French Cup on Sunday.
In all, he started the last 28. There was one exception to the widespread fatigue. Beckham just kept running, all the way down the other end of the field to the United fans. I don’t know if I’ll experience moments, or see celebrations, quite like those ever again," he said. Everybody recognised straight away that this was seismic stuff, and not only because of the fury with which a devastated Kuffour was pounding the ground.
Zbrojovka Brno are ranked 2nd place in the standings with 44 points, they are without any doubt big favorite for the win. However they are playing away from home. Listen are much weaker opponent, they are ranked 11th place in the league with 26 points. As you can see there is big difference in points won.
Both teams have won their past 4 matches they win because they both good at scoring and defending. This could be a game not about scoring but defending as both teams know each other strengths. They know they have both been able to get large amount of goals resulting in wins. Each manager here will attempt to try and play a defense match where they will simply try to defend for as long as they can and then attempt to get a single goal to win the match. Either manager would want this match to have to many goals in it
Coronavirus: Wayne Rooney says footballers treated as 'guinea pigs'Coronavirus: Manchester United's Paul Pogba sets up fundraiser and pledges financial supportA Swiss football federation statement added: "The personnel who were most recently in personal contact with the president have been informed and will take the necessary steps if directed by the federation's medical department. Uefa has invited representatives of its 55 member associations to an emergency video conference meeting on Tuesday.
We don't think that either of these two teams are particularly likely to earn a win in this game. This fixture resulted in a draw last time that it occurred. We predict that this Saturday's game will result in another draw.
Talleres will play against Colon in the Argentina Superliga. The home team won three of their last five home matches. The away team, however, could not win any of their last five away matches. Based on these statistics, I predict a home win.
We lost possession too often in the first half but still we managed to be in the lead," said Dortmund coach Lucien Favre. We made a big mistake with the goal we conceded but then we played really well. We will continue our path, match by match. Most games now will be very tight," said the Swiss. Hazard gave the visitors the lead when he shook off three defenders, turned to create space and curled in with his left foot in the eighth minute.
The British-based World Golf Group last month unveiled plans for a new global tour it hopes to launch in 2022 that would consist of 18 yearly tournaments - each with prize money of $10 million -- and feature 48 of the game's top players. Woods, speaking to reporters at Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, California, where he is tournament host for this week's Genesis Invitational, said he had been briefed on details of the PGL.
Everywhere I look, on TV, social media and online, the outlook for us is quite negative," Dawe told BBC Sport. People have kind of written us off. But our win over Crystal Palace on Sunday was massive and I am actually quietly confident we can do it. West Ham and Watford play each other [on Friday] and then Watford face Manchester City and Arsenal in their final two fixtures, while West Ham have got to play Manchester United and us.
Things turned for these two sides early in 2019. Bologna went from relegation strugglers to comfortably midtable, while Fiorentina were the opposite. The visitors fought off relegation in May, while their poor record has seen new management step in for the New Year.
MAN OF THE MATCH Troy Deeney: Watford's interplay between their forward players was a joy to behold and it was Deeney who was at the centre of everything. Great hold-up play, impressive vision - and an eighth career goal against Bournemouth to cap it off. KEY MOMENTS 42' - GOAL! Bournemouth 0-1 Watford (Doucoure): The Cherries are the makers of their own downfall! They overplay out of defence again, Travers' clearance is poor and Sarr pounces, sending a cross to the back post where Doucoure is on hand to slot it home.
Although Palace began promisingly, with Patrick van Aanholt's scruffy shot hitting the post, Everton went ahead after 18 minutes when Theo Walcott created space to deliver a perfect cross for Bernard's controlled volley. That was Walcott's last meaningful contribution as he soon departed with a jarred knee to be replaced by Djibril Sidibe but only after a curious episode saw the Frenchman briefly disappear down the tunnel, apparently in search of a second sock.
He said: “I also feel the obligation, in these critical times, to address a message inspired by experiencing this brief adventure of mine. It is worth staying at home to protect ourselves and our relatives. By staying at home, we shield ourselves and deny the virus intruding in our lives. By staying at home, we defend our community, the many, public health and contain the virus spread. So there is no room for being careless or selfish.
However, despite this performance, Brest shouldn't be fooled thinking they're a top team now, as they have had their fair share of equally as poor results in recent weeks. Away from home they have been awful with just the one win in their seven league outings. They have conceded the second most chances on the road so far and with three defeats in their last four away games we don't hold much hope for them here.
Three of the last St Pauli home league games have had under 2.5 goals scored in them. There have been under 2.5 goals scored in five of the last eight Heidenheim league fixtures. Two of the last three games played between these sides has had under 2.5 goals scored. Saturday wasn’t a great day for St Pauli as they lost 4-0 away at Darmstadt.

Swansea are overachieving in the Championship this term, with the club flying high in fourth place. They have emerged as genuine contenders for a spot in the Premier League, but can they keep that up in their return from the international break? Following an inconsistent season last time out, many are waiting for this Swans side to hit a tough run.
Bournemouth were beaten 0-3 at home to Liverpool in one of the least surprising results of last weekend, though the limp manner of their loss hinted that Cherries have some serious problems at present.
Monday sees them host 10th placed Arsenal in a London derby and a win will take them level on points with the Gunners. After winning at Chelsea last weekend, West Ham lost in midweek at Wolverhampton Wanderers. They have only that one win at Chelsea in their last nine league games and four of the last five have ended in defeat.
I see a complete opposite game compared to the first leg between them in Greece which was a really cagey affair in which Olympiacos seemed to settle for a nil draw but ended up conceding a late goal from Lacazette and now need to be more attacking minded in England needing goals to progress through to the next round and the defense of Arsenal is really not that great seeing them barely win 3-2 with Everton last round at home but the attack of Arsenal is indeed world class quality.
While the Eagles enjoy a six-point lead at the summit of the division, life is not so comfortable for their counterparts. Pacos have steadied the ship somewhat in recent weeks (managing to go unbeaten in four games) but are still not getting enough wins to ensure their safety (with only three victories from their last eight matches).
I can firmly say no and you can replay that again in 10 years," Lampard said. It wouldn't happen, but I think things are different. Jose Mourinho has worked at a lot of football clubs and we have to respect his right to work. On the other hand I was here for 13 years as a player, have an absolutely deep feeling for the club, and I obviously went to Man City for a year at the end of my career but Chelsea is certainly something very close to my heart and hence why I'm so proud to manage this club and hence why unfortunately I wouldn't manage Tottenham.
I cannot fault the players for what they have given and we probably had two or three chances to win it, but we take the point and move on. Newcastle are playing with an air of confidence and you have seen that in the results. First half, they made it hard for us, but we grew into the game. We are disappointed, but we are not completely upset we have come away from here with a point because it's not a bad point.
Roy Hodgson's side have come from behind to pick up points against Brighton and West Ham recently. Norwich are not playing badly and are creating lots of chances. They're also due a win and went close to beating Tottenham on Saturday. Lawro's prediction: 2-1Kojo's prediction: 3-1 West Ham v Bournemouth (17:30)The return of David Moyes is just what West Ham need. He'll get them organised and difficult to beat.
Match after match they produce impressive performances, frustrating supposed bigger sides and, rather than being sussed out in the second half of the season, they are seemingly finding new ways to keep their opponents on the toes. That was the case once again on Tuesday night. At the start of the season, Sheffield United fans could have been forgiven for spotting this game on the fixture list and fearing a cricket score, but instead their side showed no fear and went toe to toe with their opponents from the outset.
Fans who have never seen their team play, a manager holding virtual coaching sessions and a squad in lockdown across the globe - it has been an unusual start to life for one of the world's newest football clubs. Atletico Ottawa, a franchise of Spanish side Atletico Madrid, were revealed in February as the latest addition to the Canadian Premier League. But they are yet to play a game, with the eight-team competition - due to begin its second season on 11 April - put on hold because of the coronavirus pandemic.
It's time to crown the best player in men's football for 2019. In a glittering ceremony in Paris on Monday, the winner of this year's Men's Ballon d'Or will be announced, with Liverpool defensive rock Virgil van Dijk the favourite to be the first defender to take the honour in 13 years. The Premier League is heavily stocked, boasting 15 of the 30-man shortlist. But who is in contention? Last year's winner Luka Modric - the only winner in the past 11 years not named Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo - did not make the cut.

Former Irish Premiership player Lee Duffy spent eight days in hospital "hooked up to oxygen" before recovering from coronavirus. The ex-Warrenpoint and Newry City striker, 28, said he "could no longer breathe on my own, scared not knowing what was going to happen". He later warned "not to take this lightly, it is very serious". Warrenpoint wished Duffy a full recovery and noted that he "is a fit 28-year-old.
This match is for me, very very good for betting on goals and I will try it. I would play, if I said that I'm following this league too much, but yea, sometimes I watch duels and from this championship, online. Home team or Platense is team who is in last round played very interesting match, 2-4 and in the same time, they are in last three official duels against Real Espana played 2-1, 2-4 and 2-2. Yes, for me, it is pretty natural to expect similar situation and this time, so I will try and bet on goals, it is ok.
We had both already scored two apiece so I reckon we could have had a hat-trick if we had been left on. Along with Paul Ince, David Seaman and Gazza, Teddy was one of the players I met up with to reminisce - in his case over a round of golf. Media playback is not supported on this device Euro 96: Alan Shearer and Teddy Sheringham hit the golf course But I also spoke to people who I did not encounter at the time - for example David Baddiel and Frank Skinner, who were behind the "Three Lions" song, and the BBC commentators John Motson and Barry Davies.
In two of the games the Celtic goalkeeper was their best player - Craig Gordon last December at Ibrox and Fraser Forster last month at Hampden. In three of the six games Celtic managed just one shot on target in the 90 minutes. Celtic were dominant in just one of them - the 2-0 win at Ibrox earlier in the season. Last December, Brendan Rodgers admitted that the "best team won" while talking about his own side's unforced errors and poor decision-making.
Meanwhile, Al Hilal also went into their semi final clash with Copa Libertadores holders Flamengo as big underdogs. They had the Brazilians rocked in the first half and went into the break 1-0 up but were then overpowered by Flamengo's firepower and ended up on the wrong end of a 3-1 full time scoreline.
He has major issues to resolve, not least the failure to convert possession and chances into goals that is now threatening Chelsea's hopes of qualifying for next season's Champions League. Lampard's own selections must also come under scrutiny. He showed conviction by dropping £71m keeper Kepa Arrizabalaga but there was surprise in many quarters when he kept faith with 38-year-old Willy Caballero on Monday after suggesting the Spaniard had responded well to being left out.
Al Hilal even won the Asian Champions League just one month ago winning both legs in the final with Urawa from Japan with rather ease, and they have their striker Gomis in excellent scoring form at this moment, and although they drew their last two away games at home they defeated Adalah with no less than 7-0 in their last league game played in front of their own fans.
Shakhtyor Soligorsk are in excellent form in the last weeks with a 4-1-0 record in the last 5 matches. And in 4 of the last 5 games they kept a clean sheet. At home Shakhtyor has won the last 3 matches scoring at least 2 goals in each match.

It went wrong for them in their opening game away to France and they can't afford another defeat in Scotland. The Calcutta Cup is at stake in this game and it's Scotland who are the holders. They beat England at home in 2018 and then had that incredible comeback at Twickenham last year to grab a 36-36 draw.
In the upcoming game of Scottish League Two, Elgin will play against Edinburgh City. In my opinion, there is no real favorite here. Elgin is currently in fifth place with five wins, seven draws and six losses. Edinburgh, meanwhile, is in second place with 13 wins, two draws and three losses. Edinburgh are currently in a good mood and have taken four wins in a row, but Elgin has also lost only one game from their last five league games. It was always close between these two teams, the last four direct duels all from last year ended in a draw.
