He has scored goals in every league he's played in and I always had him earmarked to come back in and he showed us what he was about. Newcastle manager Steve Bruce told Sky Sports: "The first half in particular we did not do enough with or without the ball. We felt we were harshly done by with two free-kicks, but the way Conor Hourihane has executed them made it a difficult night. Conor is very good, I have seen it many times and he has the accuracy and power to score.
The importance of this fixture to both of these sides cannot be understated, and given that they will both want three points, it seems likely that they will approach this clash with a positive mindset. With the hosts perhaps not being their best defensively at the moment and their visitors also suffering a bit of a blip, we think that backing both teams to score looks to be the best way to get a decent return.

Avranches is 6 points away from the top 3 clubs and a possible promotion to the second league level at this moment they are doing just fine in recent home games winning 4 times and just a loss in their last 5 home games at this moment plus they took all 3 points while playing away from home at Cholet earlier this season winning the game with 2-1 in the end and Cholet is just 5 points above the relegation zone at this moment and will be wanting just a point here.

Italian football has been plagued by racism over the years and Balotelli, born in Sicily to Ghanaian parents and given up for adoption at the age of three, has been one of the main victims, most recently in a match at Hellas Verona where he was subject to abuse by home fans. The 29-year-old has struggled to find form since joining Brescia this season, was dropped from the team for Sunday's match at AS Roma and told by coach Fabio Grosso that he needs to show more determination.

Rangers manage to pass Braga in the previous round after two wins 3-2 at home and 0-1 away. They were the underdogs in this time, but at least in the away game, they didn`t leave any chances for Braga. They played almost perfect and the score could be even higher if Hagi didn`t missed the penalty. I like the fighting spirit of the team and Gerard suits perfect for them. Leverkusen are in a great form this year, manage some great wins and score in almost every game. I am sure that we will see an open game in which both team will have their chances.
MANCHESTER, England, Dec 7 (Reuters) - Manchester City's Premier League title hopes were in tatters after suffering a 2-1 derby defeat at home to Manchester United on Saturday, leaving Pep Guardiola's champions 14 points behind leaders Liverpool. Goals from Marcus Rashford (penalty) and Anthony Martial put Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side 2-0 up at the break and City only pulled one back in the 85th minute through Nicolas Otamendi.
Liverpool mayor Joe Anderson also told the BBC he feared thousands of the club's fans would gather outside Anfield to celebrate the title, even if matches were played at neutral venues. However, recently retired West Yorkshire chief superintendent Owen West told the Guardian that the use of neutral stadiums had "no rationale", and such a proposal was not being enforced in Germany where the Bundesliga hopes to resume this weekend.
Potter has introduced a more attractive and fluid style of play and has increased the Seagulls' numbers for possession, successful passes, goals, shots, clean sheets and touches in the opposition's penalty area. Crucially, he has got them all but safe with two games to spare. He has also now taken them beyond last season's points total of 36, and could yet engineer a best finish since 1982, when thy finished 13th in the old Division One table.
Then say, 'right, OK, who really wants to go head over heels in being professional and bringing on the game?'"I'm sure if we do it properly, our product can be 100% better than it is right now. Nobody's going to kill a football club but find your level that you play at. Find the level your finances are putting you. Don't tell me you're a professional club when you're paying people part-time 80 quid a week and nobody turns up to your football matches.
Robben retired in July 2019 after a career in which he won more than 30 club trophies. However he hopes to be back in action for the 2020-21 season to help Groningen, who have been badly affected by the suspension of football. It is my dream to wear the Groningen shirt again," he said. I don't know yet whether this will work. What I do know is that it will not depend on my commitment and motivation.
An early summit takes place in League Two when Crewe is put away away from Forest Green. I believe in a really entertaining and good football match and that we will be able to see at least three goals in this match. Crewe has been crazy goal-scoring this season with his 26 goals forwards and 17 forwards. So I will bet that we will see at least three goals in this match here on Saturday. Another game that could be a good game is to play on the undecided result of this match here. My bet is on Over 2.25 goals

Boxell says: "One being found is brilliant, but five is incredible. It's an absolutely amazing idea and not something I'd have even dreamed of. Lots of kids go to football games, so any new way of getting appeals out about missing kids is worth doing. View more on twitter Rogers says it was "nerve-wracking" when he first met the US-based National Centre for Missing and Exploited Children to tell them about how Roma could potentially help.
Well this is going to be one of those matches that can change the season for some of the teams. Both teams are having a great season so far. Vaduz are at the 3rd spot with 41 pts while Kriens are right behind them with 40..Grasshopper are at the 2nd spot with only 44 pts so this is important match for both teams in order to get to that 2nd spot, however I strongly believe that Vaduz are by far the better team here and the odds are must try. Since the pause Vaduz had 2 very difficult matches between Winterthur which they won 4-1 and showed some very good performance against the 1st place team of Lausanne.On the other hand Kriens won Schaffhausen 3-0 and drawed with Ouchy 2-2 but I got to say that they were very very lucky and the results are not speaking the whole picture (Kriens was just so bad ) but they did take advantage of their chances and scored. Vaduz is really having some very good players. Sutter and Cicek are on fire while also they have some very decent players like Coulibaly, Simani , Dorn, Frick , Milinceanu all of this are very good players for this level of football. Vaduz should have the upper hand here, and that quality should come on surface
Newcastle have kept clean sheets in four of their last six Premier League home games. Tottenham go into their match with Newcastle on a high this Wednesday after victory in the North London derby. Spurs are eigth in the table, a spot that could be high enough to qualify for the Europa League depending on how other competitions pan out.
I hope he will play before the end of the year, but I am not going to push him. I can't risk any setbacks or injuries," Solskjaer said. Solskjaer did say the Watford game might come to soon for Pogba but the 26-year-old travelled with the rest of the United squad on Saturday and could end his 17-game absence at Vicarage Road. The Manchester United manager also said Pogba would not be sold in January.
BATE looking at the games they have played in their home games with other team's they are very used of scoring many goals as looking at the last 5 home games they have shown us an over of 2.5 total goals in 4 games and so this factor makes us to be very sure with our prediction as the home team will continue with that trend
Adam Heap: I'm a Burnley fan and whether it's 'scientifically offside' or not, that VAR can be used like that is just wrong. I'd be happier for Villa to have that goal. Poor defending from Burnley as Villa's formation change pays off Sean Dyche was a frustrated figure on the touchline as Burnley had just one shot on target in the entire matchDean Smith's side came into the match having picked up just four points away from home and off the back of a poor performance in a 3-0 defeat at 10-man Watford on Saturday.
The home side are sixth in the table, three points behind United at the time of writing, with qualifying for the Champions League being their aim. Everton rock up to Molineux 11th in the table, four points off eighth place and six off seventh. Qualifying for the Europa League remains a possibility but they are among a cluster of midtable teams close together on points.
They will hope to do better defensively here, having managed just one clean sheet in the earlier five matches before football was stopped. The 2018 MLS champions have not had the best run away from home in the league in recent times, and here they head with a run of five losses and four wins when playing away from the Mercedes Benz Stadium.

Italian top league. Team Juventus will play at home with team Inter Milan. Hosts lost last their match. It was a game in CL . Distance between them and team Inter is 6 points. Inter won 2 last their games. Their shape is not bad. It is a good opportunity for guests to reduce a distance between team Juventus. My bet will be on guests today. Inter didn't win with team Juventus just 5 years. Also this match will be without spectators and fans. It is advantage for my bet . I recommend to try guests with AH (0) for good odds .
Atromitos have been in decent form recently with 2 wins and 1 loss. They have scored 5 goals and conceded 7 goals in the last 5 league matches. On the road they have managed to win 2 and lose 3 of their last 5 league games.
It would mean using every available midweek slot and, for the busiest clubs, utilising their squads to play twice in a very short space of time. It was by no means ideal but Liverpool played two games in two days in different continents this season, so it clearly can be done. How realistic is football in May?BBC Sport has been told by a Premier League source that unless they are blocked from doing so by the government, the intention is to restart the season as soon as practical from 30 April.

When I played with him, he was just more of a finisher. The work ethic you see from him now is what Pep has instilled in him and that is why he has taken his game to the next level because now he is doing all the stuff he did when I played with him, and more. The medal that would put him up there with football's greats Aguero has another match-ball to add to his collection after his hat-trick in City's 6-1 win over Aston Villa on Sunday, his 12th in the Premier League - another recordReplacing Aguero, when that moment comes, is going to be near impossible for City.

The player wants to stay and is willing to delay any decision until the season postponement is resolved, reports the Sunday Mirror. Paper Round’s view: The next transfer window is hugely uncertain and for a club with financial advantages like United, there could be bargains to be had from clubs who are more stretched economically.
