The hosts are hoping for a win to close the gap on the sides at the top of the table, as Fulham are just nine points shy after their win on Sunday. Will they be able to follow that up with a victory in this clash, or can Reading continue to impress with their great spell of form?
The exact score earns 40 points. LAWRO'S PREDICTIONSMONDAY Brighton v Newcastle (18:00 BST)Newcastle have lost three games in a row but you can understand why their levels have dipped because they were already safe. Brighton still aren't mathematically certain of staying up, but their goal difference is so much better than Aston Villa's (by 11 goals), they are as good as safe already. A draw would make absolutely sure the Seagulls will survive, and I think they will get it here.
Bryan Mbeumo scored on his first start since returning from coronavirus as in-form Brentford brushed aside Reading to move within two points of the Championship's automatic promotion places. The Frenchman, who missed Brentford's first post-lockdown game at Fulham after a positive test, glanced home a first-half header for his 15th goal of the season to put the Bees ahead. Josh Dasilva lashed home Brentford's second midway through the second half after following up on Rafael Cabral's save from his initial effort, before Joel Valencia added a stunning third from outside the box in added time.
Wigan were the great survivors twice, staying up in 2010-11 and 2011-12 having been in the drop zone with nine rounds to go. The biggest change was the 2010-11 season when Wigan and Wolves escaped and Birmingham and Blackpool went down. Only West Ham failed to get out of the bottom three in the final nine weeks. In 2011-12 Wigan caught up six points on Blackburn in the closing weeks to send Rovers down.
That triggered a Wales fan to create the flag which Bale and his team-mates were pictured alongside as they celebrated sealing their place at Euro 2020. Bale played in the crucial wins over Azerbaijan and Hungary despite not featuring for his club since the October international break because of injury, prompting further questions over his commitment to Real's cause. Bale said the timing of his return to action was a coincidence - but admitted prior to the Azerbaijan game he felt "more excitement" playing for Wales than he does when on club duty.
The PGL said it wanted to work with established tours rather than as a breakaway circuit, but the U. S. PGA Tour and European Tour have been all but dismissive about the proposed circuit. When asked how such a concept could be a possibility, Woods referenced the high-profile World Golf Championships, which were introduced in 1999 as a way to get the world's best golfers together outside of the four majors and Players Championship.
Any player with symptoms must self-isolate for seven days. Anyone confirmed as having coronavirus - Brighton have had three players so far - or has had close contact with someone who has tested positive, must self-isolate for 14 days. What extra medical support is needed?Premier League clubs have some of the best medical facilities in the country. They will feel they have all the equipment necessary to deal with the issues created by Covid-19.
Both managers, Jose Mourinho from Tottenham and Jurgen Klopp from Liverpool, should be satisfied with one point from this match. The Special One is facing lot of problems - the actual form isn't at desired level, while the key player Harry Kane is out due to an injury. Mourinho is well aware of the fact that draw will be a good result for the Spurs. Klopp, meanwhile, will also be satisfied with one point as Liverpool have 13 points advantage to the second placed Leicester City and 14 points more than the actual champions Manchester City. Plus, Klopp has some injury worries as Fabinho, Naby Keita, Lovren, Matip and Milner are struggling with various injuries.
As things stand, Sunday's visitors are bottom of the pile and are three points from safety. Three points isn't a lot, so they are very much still in touch, but performances don't exactly suggest that they'll move up the table any time soon.
The AFC thanks the commitment shown by the CFA and these 10 great cities to be a part of this celebration of Asian football. I wish them all the very best of success in their desire to show the world that China PR can stage huge international football events. The tournament will give China the opportunity to showcase its ability to host a major football event and comes several years after President Xi Jinping declared his desire to see the country eventually host the World Cup finals.
Under-23s coach Neil Critchley says he will be "very proud" to take charge of Liverpool against Aston Villa in the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup. The Reds will field a youthful team on Tuesday as manager Jurgen Klopp leads his senior players at the Club World Cup in Qatar the following day. It's a great opportunity for all of us, myself included," Critchley said. I'll be very proud to lead the team out.
Supercopa success could well be the catalyst that sparks a fruitful campaign on all fronts for Zinedine Zidane's side, who sit joint top of the La Liga standings alongside Barcelona, heading into this Saturday's home clash against Sevilla.

I called my mum and she was happy, crying," he said. I know many people used to say when they join a team, they say that they dream of playing for that team. Mine was not the case. I supported the team when I was young. People that know me, even back in Nigeria, and even when I was playing at Watford, my team-mates knew that I loved Manchester United, I support them. With Marcus Rashford recovering from a stress fracture and Anthony Martial having scored once in his past five Premier League games, Ighalo hopes his physicality can aid the United forward line.

Victory lifted West Ham six points clear of the relegation zone while Chelsea failed to close the three-point gap to second-placed Manchester City and Leicester City in third. However, the day belonged to Martin, who sank to his knees and was close to tears at the end of the game before celebrating in the stands with his father, who played in the West Ham defence for 20 years. It was a performance, the elder Martin would have been proud of.

Beaconsfield Town will host Dorchester Town for this fixture of the league. Both sides are one of the worst teams in the league. Both teams are currently bottom of the table. Also, both teams have a poor results in the last matches. In any case, I expect another one tough match for both sides. I think, this will be a very tense match. Both sides want to get a positive result. In my opinion, the visitors will closer to victory. Dorchester have a more offensive team. True, they have a vulnerable defense. I expect, they tend to score a goal. My pick - Dorchester to win.
The difference was a great finish and we were not able to execute that today. Everton's Ancelotti was not suprisingly a lot more satisfied than his opposite number after the final whistle. For 60 minutes the performance was good, at the end it was normal to suffer a little bit at 1-0 up. We suffered but we were determined to have three points at the end and this is the most important thing," the 60-year-old Italian said.

Yet clubs have also requested that relegation from the fourth tier is removed this season. That might have meant bad news for Barrow, top of the National League - which was ended last month - but Bury's expulsion from the EFL in August means there is a space to be filled for next season. Hopefully we come on the end of the right outcome, which is what we deserve and I don't think many people can argue about it," said Barrow boss Ian Evatt.
Premier League chief executive Richard Masters says he will "fully consider" calls for Newcastle United's proposed takeover to be blocked. Hatice Cengiz, the fiancee of murdered journalist Jamal Khashoggi, has written to the league to oppose the deal. Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) is financing a £300m takeover. Western intelligence agencies believe that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who heads the PIF, ordered Khashoggi's murder in 2018 - which he denies.
It is understood the Premier League is carrying out the necessary paperwork with regards to its owners' and directors' test for the proposed takeover of the Magpies. Saudi broadcaster Arabsat has always denied that beoutQ uses its frequencies to broadcast illegally. Earlier this week, Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden said the issue was a matter for the Premier League, but Betts thinks intervention is needed and the government should "not sit on the bench".
Duel between two sides who are in the same page when it comes to quality team and individual as same as experience.Both teams so far have collected 8 pts. Hai Phong and Gia Lai didn't start the season so well. They are having quite a few problems certainly especially at the back. They are having just too many holes and are doing way too many passing mistakes at the back. I expect one very even match without many goals and for sure a draw where at the end maybe one accidental goal to decide the winner but certainly I don't expect that too much
Of course I analysed it. I met my assistants and when we analysed it, it was in a positive, constructive way. I forbid them to analyse and blame anyone else but us. I said don't focus on the club or the players just on what we could do better and what could we do better in the future. You win or you learn, you don't lose.
The club's chief executive Neill Blake, first team technical director Richard Hughes, manager Eddie Howe and assistant manager Jason Tindall have all taken significant, voluntary pay cuts for the entirety of this uncertain time," Bournemouth said in a statement https://www.

Lazio ”before the start of the season, of course, was not considered as a contender for the fight for Scudetto. However, the fact remains. The Romans have not lost 16 rounds in a row and are confidently placed in the top three
I want my tombstone to say that I won the Champions League with Barca," the 61-year-old said in an interview with Catalan newspaper L'Esportiu on Saturday. Setien was the surprise choice to succeed Ernesto Valverde as the club's coach after the latter was sacked despite winning back-to-back league titles and leading the team to the top of the standings at the halfway stage of the season.
Leipzig, who had won the last three games in all competitions, and their opponents did little after the break to even come close to scoring, leaving them both with a point. Leipzig are in second place on 49 points, with Bayern, winners 6-0 over Hoffenheim, on 52. Leverkusen remain in fifth place on 44.
The loss was Everton's 7th in 10 Premier League matches, and Toffees' supporters will hold little hope that their team can pull off an upset this week at one of the most difficult grounds to win at in football.
FC Metz game today on live stream & TV | Schedule 1 day ago — MARSEILLE METZ. MARSEILLE vs. METZ. Feb 9 at 12:00 PM. Metz visits Olympique Marseille and their undefeated record at home.
It was Ferguson who switched the team from Silva's 4-2-3-1 to a 4-4-2, which is also Ancelotti's preferred formation. He has since added minor tweaks such as asking his wide players to cut inside, allowing the full-backs to be more positive. He also wants that approach from the rest of the team, demanding more "vertical" football, which has seen an improvement in points per game, goals scored and shots taken compared to Silva.
Kick-off was delayed at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino so water could be swept off the pitch amid heavy rainfall, and the players had to work hard throughout the game on a sodden surface that deteriorated as the downpour continued. Juventus are top of the table with 35 points, with Inter right on their heels a point behind.
The first game has been finished by unexpected result of 1-1. But from another point of this revenge, IMO, we can expect to see some great match tonight. Hosts boosted their confidence after winning 5-0 vs Waasland Beveren on last home game in the domestic league. Tonight, ready and with raised motivation are getting into the clash vs favorites Club Brugge. The visitors are taking this cup competition very seriously, having great wins vs top side clubs. With one step away from the finale, they will try to present their best.
This same problem of struggling to cope with attacking sides was seen when they lost 2-1 at Old Trafford earlier this month, and it’s a real problem. However, that problem doesn’t seem so prevalent when they face the smaller clubs in the Premier League.
Southampton are without an away win since their impressive 1-0 win at Sheffield United on September 14th, though it's worth noting that their unsuccessful five-match run since included tough tests at Spurs, Wolves, Man City and Arsenal.
Another match where both teams are going to be very even and should settle in for a draw. Both teams are at the mid table and should not worry too much for getting relegated and also don't have a chance for something more for sure. Cagliari at this match will be without Farago P , Naingollan R, Oliva C , Pavoletti L , Pereigo G and Piscanane F while Torino will be without Verdi S, Zaza S and without Baseline due to knee injury. Both teams are similar in quality and given all the circumstances for this match I believe both teams will settle in for a draw.
Crotone is 3rd in the league standings at this moment and can take advantage of the fact that 2nd placed Pordenone dropped two points this round and cut the distance separating them from the 2nd place to just one point by winning here, just that I do not trust their defense that much watching them quite weak in defense away from home at Frosinone where they won with a bit of luck with 2-1 in the end.

Against low-scoring visitors, Ipswich have an excellent opportunity to put a much-needed three points on the board. Punters can profit by backing 'Ipswich to Win & Under 3.5 Goals'. Not only have Gillingham failed to score goals on a regular basis on the road, but they're yet to score when playing away against a top-six team. They've already failed to notch in defeat against both Oxford and Coventry, conceding four goals in the process. Such form doesn't bode well for the visitors. Ipswich are unbeaten in five home games against teams outside the top six, three of which they've won.
The hosts are fighting for a top 6 finish at the end of the normal season and are quite close to those places at this moment plus they face here the weakest opponent in the league they could possibly face as the guests are bottom of the league team with a bit more than 10 points won so far, just 2 wins all season long in the league and even lost at home 1-0 to same Kilmarnock side while their last two away games they lost 2-0 and 4-0 in the end and opponents were neither Celtic or Rangers but weak St. Mirren and Motherwell.
FC Volendam against NEC Nijmegen here, another meeting of the Eerste Divisie of Dutch soccer that is played tomorrow night at 20:00. Slightly favored hosts for the victory of the match come from an external success of 1-2 against Excelsior Rotterdam while the guests are coming from a home draw with white nets against Jong Utrecht. The Volendam comes from four consecutive victories but today is facing an opponent who plays very well on the road and given that the technical gap between the two teams is not there let's try a draw here as the odds are quite high.
