Gimnasia Mendoza will host Sarmiento for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the hosts have the potential to make a positive result. Yeah, Gimnasia Mendoza is very average team in this season. However, the hosts are in better shape in recent times. They have an effective attack in the last matches. In previous game Gimnasia Mendoza is won 1-5 against Atl. Rafaela. On the other hand Sarmiento are more ambitious team in this season. True, the visitors have fallen in their shape. They have three consecutive losses. I expect, this will be a tense match. I think, the hosts will closer to victory.

He plots his return to Stamford Bridge having closed a gap between Spurs and Chelsea that was 12 points when he succeeded Mauricio Pochettino on 20 November to just four - so victory on Saturday would mean a return to the top four. Only Liverpool, with 42 points, have picked up more than Mourinho's 26 in that time but one defeat may just shape the Stamford Bridge agenda. Mourinho's elephantine memory will recall how he was totally outflanked tactically by Lampard when Chelsea won 2-0 at Spurs on 22 December.

It is a beautiful shop window," he said. Challandes said Kosovo's history meant players had a special pride. These players are hungry, their families are behind them, the whole country is behind them and they feel that," he said. It is very difficult for opponents to play in Pristina. But he does not like to dwell on the political situation.
He is thankful for every minute. And while he has no plans to branch out on his own just yet, he has ideas for when it eventually happens. I love the game. I have a passion for the game. I love to be around the players and give advice. I like to be positive. You will have ups and downs but the most important thing is to keep fighting and keep believing in what you are doing.
Real Betis have one loss in their last seven home league matches. Athletic Bilbao have only won one of their last seven away league games. Athletic Bilbao have failed to score in three of their last four away league matches. Athletic Bilbao are fifth in La Liga but only because of their home form. Their away performances aren't so impressive and they may struggle at 12th placed Real Betis.
Chelsea were one of three Premier League clubs to not sign anybody in January, despite winning an appeal to reduce their transfer ban. Reigning champions Manchester City and relegation battlers Bournemouth were the others. Tim Bridge, director in the sports business group at Deloitte, said: "Two seasons ago Premier League clubs spent a record £430m in the January transfer window. However, over the last two January windows spending patterns have returned to normal.
As home side did made some improvement in their roster, team should not be such a big underdog now in this clash. They have lost 3:1 to Slutsk, but team was with the red card, and that make their opponent easier to get two goals for the victory, after 1:1 draw at the half time.
Best finish: Winner (1988) Koeman was a key member of the Netherlands' triumphant 1988 side, scoring from the penalty spot under massive pressure in the semi-final win over hosts West Germany. Philipp Lahm (Germany) - 14 apps, 2 goals. Tournaments played in: 2004, 2008, 2012.

One point separates the sides going into this encounter with Hertha making a winning return on Saturday. A subject of derision for much of the season, Hertha looked like a side transformed under new boss Bruno Labbadia when they travelled to Hoffenheim last weekend. A slick performance led to a 3-0 victory for the away side with goals from Ibisevic and Cunha following an own-goal early in the second half.
In the final moments of the game, it looked like Spurs would take home the full three points as the ball made it as far as the line but not quite over it before new boy Ignacio Pussetto cleared it, salvaging a point for his team. Spurs next face Norwich in the league on Wednesday, while Watford face Aston Villa on Tuesday.
Sevilla will back themselves to pass this Friday's test against 7th placed Athletic Bilbao, as although they were shocked 1-2 by Villarreal in their last outing at Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, they had previously won four of their last five at home. With six wins and three draws posted in total from their last ten top flight matches, it's easy to see why Los Palanganas have been installed as odds-on favourites for this important clash in Andalusia.
50% of Porto’s home games have produced over 2.5 goals and only 17% of Santa Clara’s away games have produced over 2.5 goals. Porto have won-to-nil in all of their homes games and Santa Clara have failed to score in 50% of their away games, which ties in with our prediction for a 2-0 home win.
Bayern have also looked reinvigorated going forwards since the departure of Kovac. They have scored a total of 16 goals in their last four competitive games. They have also won each of their last four competitive games by a margin of more than one goal.
Lyon last played on Tuesday while Rennes have had two less days to rest as they faced Lazio on Thursday. This could be another factor holding back the away side and we feel this won't help their case or their away form. Therefore we're backing Lyon to get the win as they've scored nine goals in their last five games at the Groupama. However, they have just one clean sheet in this time and with Rennes scoring consistently in recent weeks we expect this to be a close one. Nevertheless, with Lyon's home form and extra rest we're backing them to win 2-1.
United have been looking for a short-term replacement for the injured Marcus Rashford, and King played under Solskjaer in United's reserve team, but failed to make a breakthrough to the senior squad.

A league match in the Czech Republic between Karvina and Mlada Boleslav. The guests are playing better this season and are in 9th place in the league while the home team is in 14th place. However, the home team is in good shape at the moment but Mlada will be more motivated. After the restart of the league, both teams are still winless with a respective 0-2-3 row. Karvina has only 25 points and sit third last, but at home has a record of 3-1-1. That was before the break, but Boleslav is no longer a good team and is tenth on the verge of wasting the playoffs for the EL. A draw may well serve for Mlada.
There will be different cases, as we are seeing in different federations [where] they are preparing for an option of playing with no public. Another option is to play away, somewhere that is safe, and do it as a World Cup format. Another is to try to extend the season. That would be very complicated unless it comes from Uefa or Fifa and they [fit in] with the Qatar World Cup in 2022. I don't think anyone can give you the decision now because we don't know what the situation will be.
Blackburn have won their last four matches at home, while their recent strong form makes them worthy favourites against one of the league’s worst travelling sides. We expect Blackburn to follow up on their recent successes, with a home win our tip for this clash.

While Barcelona and Real Madrid have enjoyed great periods of success in recent years, these are two teams who have endured difficult starts to the season. This weekend was an illustration of this, with Barca dropping points away to Real Sociedad and Real Madrid lucky to come away from Mestalla with a draw.
We are 1-0 down, yes, but with 10 players you have much less of a chance to fight back," he is quoted as saying by the Guardian. You always need a referee who is aware of situations like this, we cannot do it by ourselves. Sadio did nothing wrong, absolutely nothing, and I still thought in the next situation it will be like this [a second yellow card].
The FA felt that Casilla's use of high-profile character witnesses (including former Liverpool, Real Madrid and Newcastle manager Rafael Benitez) was a "shameless ploy". The commission did not consider this to be an aggravating factor. The commission felt that Leeds United team manager Matt Grice, who was with Casilla when he was informed of the allegation against him, "was not seeking to assist us to ascertain the truth".
Any decision to delay Euro 2020 would involve negotiations with FIFA, who are planning to host the revamped Club World Championship in 2021.

It is almost a month since a ball has been kicked in the Premier League, four weeks without a broadcast game or matchday revenue and with the risk that if the season is not completed, broadcasters could reclaim up to 760 million pounds in payments to the clubs. The clubs say they want the players to help limit the damage by taking a hit to their pay-packet.
In Russia match between poorly classified, Ural and Tambov who occupy the 12th and 13th place with the same number of points. Two teams with permeable defenses and whose attacks often score. Ural at home it's an average of 15 shots per game and possession of the ball. I see them dominating. A match that should be balanced and that could end with draw. I think that a draw will be possible in this match and it will be 0: 0, but my tip is that it will be a draw, both teams are above the drop zone but they are very close and I don't think they will take any risks and will play a draw.
It helped that the two were good friends on the pitch but, like every good friendship, there were times when it was tested. Their one significant flashpoint happened in a Champions League semi-final first leg against Real Madrid back in 2012. At half time, a heated exchange developed between the two over a decision on who should take a free-kick just before the break. The row continued in the dressing room where Ribery threw a punch at Robben, catching him under the eye.
