Bowen’s men are really on the up, while Fulham have struggled for consistency at home. The hosts have won back to back home matches in the league, but after 13 games they’re yet to win three on the spin at home this term. We see Fulham being stopped here, with the hosts winning just twice in their last six matches. We are backing Reading to pull off a result here.
The hosts, who are sixth, were caught napping as a Verona throw-in went straight to the unmarked Samuel Di Carmine who drove the ball past keeper Pierluigi Gollini in the 23rd minute. Despite a disappointing first-half display by Atalanta, Serie A's leading scorers levelled a minute before the break when Ruslan Malinovskyi collected the ball outside the area and netted with a dipping left-foot shot.
Juventus has a completely different outlook to the teams in the 17th, 18th or 19th places," he said.

Bolton has big problems this season as they have been already deducted a couple of points which makes it even harder for them in their fight for avoiding relegation, they lost recently 7-1 away from home at Accrington and it was not really their only big loss away from home so far this season also losing 6-1 at Rotherham, 5-0 away at Gillingham and Tranmere also a 5-2 loss for example at Rochdale, so quite big losses and a lot of goals conceded by them.
Roberto Firmino went close to his first Anfield goal since March with a curling effort just past the post and should have got it later in the second half, but failed to connect with Trent Alexander-Arnold's low cross from point-blank range. In the end, though, two was more than enough to seal another win and move another step closer to their ultimate goal. Having achieved an 'Invincibles' year, Liverpool still have a long way to go to match the 'Invincibles' season achieved by Arsenal in 2003-04.
Before their loss in the last match, Marseille had gone unbeaten in 14 matches and they will be keen on getting back to this form. They have failed to score in just two of their last 15 matches and with back to back wins over Nimes, they will have the psychological edge. The two sides have met thrice, competitively, and Marseille have registered two wins while Nimes have one.
BARCELONA, Jan 14 - Quique Setien was named Barcelona coach late on Monday, tasked with the job of restoring the club’s iconic passing style, but the appointment represents a huge gamble for the Catalans given the 61-year-old's lack of success at the highest level. While his predecessor Ernesto Valverde won two La Liga titles in two years and has the team top once again at the halfway point this season, Setien, apart from some success in Spain’s third tier in 2011, has no coaching honours to his name.
Watford’s revival is continuing in the league, but will they use that momentum in this midweek FA Cup replay?

Lejeune was in the spotlight for the wrong reasons again as his poor clearance found its way to Perez who fed Maddison, and the England international blasted in a left-footed shot from distance three minutes later. The double blow came shortly after Newcastle had missed the chance to take the lead through Brazilian forward Joelinton, who sprinted onto a pass over the top of the Leicester defence but failed to beat goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel with two attempts.
If you look at the characteristics of Arsene Wenger's Arsenal side that Freddie and I played in, then it seems that is the way he wants his team to play football too. In possession, they were certainly a lot better than they have been recently. But if you concede space, and you don't compete for the ball or get close to the opposition players, then you don't win football matches. That is what happened to Arsenal at Carrow Road.
Look, as a lawyer I respect the system. The system we have -- Investigatory Chamber and Adjudicatory Chamber and then we have CAS in Lausanne," he said. For some administrators it’s a problem if you have an independent body. For me it’s a privilege," added Ceferin. Some media reports have suggested that UEFA officials fear abuse from City fans during the Champions League match against Real Madrid at the Etihad Stadium on March 17 but UEFA general secretary Theodore Theodoridis rejected the notion.

Initially, the deal was said to have been worth £340m, but the latest development will encourage many Newcastle fans who want to see Ashley end his association with the club, having taken over in 2007. Supporters have cited a lack of ambition and have also criticised his conduct during the coronavirus pandemic where the club has charged fans for next season's season tickets. There has also been disappointment at Newcastle being one of three Premier League clubs to have placed their non-playing staff on furlough.

He is just a machine, someone who never walked into a treatment room and someone who I always felt going onto the pitch we could beat any type of opposition with just because he could do things that would blow me away. Best player played against? Gerrard played against ex-France star Zidane at Euro 2004"This is where I wanted to pick two. In my early days it was Zinedine Zidane. I was in my early 20s and it was probably the first time I had gone onto a football pitch and come off and been in total shock because I'd been in awe of someone.
Odds are quite decent given the fact that both teams will go for the win here and I see an open game of football in which the guests are slight favorites to be winning and progressing forward and I say this because both are in the second league and in the first part of the season there they met here at Lustenau and the guests had the lead 3-0 in that one only for the hosts to crawl back two goals as they ended up losing that encounter with 3-2 in the end but really neither side looked all that solid in defense.

If City play anywhere near as well as we know they can, they will have too much firepower for the Blades. I am not expecting United to make life easy for them, because they will be solid and well organised, and they are a clever side. But the teams who have beaten City at Etihad Stadium this season - Wolves and Manchester United - undid them using absolute pace, and Chris Wilder's side do not have that in their attack.
Metz have found the step up to Ligue 1 rather difficult since their promotion with few wins to their name as they closed out 2019.

It was a horrific defeat and one that has laid all the pressure on manager Vincent Hognon who has said there is a u201cfeeling of shameu201d surrounding their underperformance.

Odense will host Aalborg for this fixture of the league. I expect, this will be tense match for both sides. Both teams are very average teams in this season. True, the visitors are in better shape in their last matches. Nevertheless, I think, they have a very difficult task on the road. Also, we have Odense who's is not very good team in the last matches. They have three consecutive losses. True, the hosts are better team at home. I think, they have great motivation to break the poor series. In any case, Odense will try to make a positive result.
Tyson Fury's mammoth self-isolation takeaway order After earning £30 million for his recent heavyweight fight against Deontay WIlder, Tyson Fury is certainly not short of cash, and he is certainly happy to spend big in self-isolation, ordering a mammoth £550 order of pizzas, mixed grills, chicken wings and steaks.
Well in this game I expect goals, a lot of ir because macabi Tel Aviv is big favorite for the win and I expect from them to win but for something like that they Will need to score at least 2 or maybe even 3 goals in my opinion cause their defense simply must concede a goal on the road, and I think that is going to happen tonight for the first time in the season cause Bnei Yehuda is in very good shape and it is not going to be a surprise for me if the score even 2 goals tonight

Marco Silva left the club in the relegation zone in December before Ancelotti joined Everton and took them to a point off fifth place in February.

The Saints simply couldn't cope with his pace. While Saint-Maximin was carving his way through the Southampton defence, Dwight Gayle was missing chances set up by the Frenchman with alarming regularity. In the end Saint-Maximin decided to do it all himself and created his own chance. Southampton's Yann Valery. Why the defender needed two touches and more time to clear the danger than it takes VAR to check an offside I don't know.
La Liga – late May return is best-case scenario A resumption to play in La Liga on 28 May in the best-case scenario, says its president Javier Tebas. All football in Spain, including La Liga, remains on hold indefinitely while the country deals with the continued spread of coronavirus. And Tebas says training will not return until emergency measures - in place until 26 April - are lifted. The measure was first put into place on 23 March after a state of emergency was declared in the country.

Michel Der Zakarian's Montpellier had a quite tricky end to 2019 with Lille, PSG and Reims all posing them issues but they have managed to bounce back in their last two matches with a 4-0 win over Brest and a 1-0 victory over fifth-tier Reims Saint-Anne in the Coupe de France. La Paillade were rather hard done by in their defeats at the tail end of 2019 with a penalty and a red card going against them. They also conceded thrice to PSG in the final fifteen minutes despite leading the lion share of the match.

Kane also became just the 11th outfield player to reach 200 Premier League appearances for Spurs.
Clermont is at 5th place at standings, with a good chances for promotion, in last round they won at away against Nancy, result was 1-2. Sochaux is in the middle of standings, their ambitions in current season is not high, and no doubt their major goal in this duel will be to avoid defeat. Host will be without suspended midfielder Gastien, but Adrian Grbic will be in attack, and many things will depend from him in this duel. In last round, Sochaux scored a goal from penalty kick in last minutes of the match, for a draw against Rodez. Sochaux has good central defenders Teikeu and Lacroix, by my opinion, Sochaux is able to avoid defeat against Clermont.

Newcastle United had goalkeeper Martin Dubravka to thank as they climbed to 10th spot in the table following a tense but scoreless draw with Norwich City at St. James's Park on Saturday. Despite being bottom of the table, the visitors came out all guns blazing, playing much of the opening 45 minutes in the Newcastle half and forcing Dubravka into two fine first-half saves to keep the scoreline level.
Mourinho also refused to speculate further on reports Gedson Fernandes is close to joining Spurs on an initial 18-month loan.

Of course, with the rules even if you get the player you cannot play him in a replay.
On the other hand, Sheffield United are flying this season. Henderson would love to return for the Blades again because he probably feels like part of the family in Sheffield.

She returned to Chelsea at the start of last season and has gone on to start all 15 of their league matches this season, scoring 14 goals.
