They are fourth in the Premier League and host Southampton who are 17th, having climbed out of the bottom three last weekend. Chelsea’s win over Tottenham has left them four points clear of fifth placed Sheffield United. They have won three of their last five games in all competitions and that stat also applies to results from their last five home league matches.
But from their wins over Chelsea and Spurs to their draw with Liverpool, those results have all come at Old Trafford, and they have still only won once away in the league - at Norwich. City were impressive as they beat Burnley at Turf Moor on Tuesday night and for Gabriel Jesus to score twice was more good news for them. Lawro's prediction: 2-0Andy's prediction: If Paul Pogba were to be back that would help United a little bit, but I am going with City.
Jose Mourinho's return to Old Trafford was not a happy one as Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford's double earned his side a 2-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur. Leicester beat bottom club Watford 2-0 as they equalled a club record winning streak dating back to 1963 -- Jamie Vardy and James Maddison scoring after the break to lift Brendan Rodgers's side three points above champions Manchester City.

We must have a plan to ensure that English football is not decimated should this season be lost and next season blighted. We hope we do not need this plan as we are all determined to finish the professional football season, however we would be fools not to develop such a contingency plan. Those that lost their clubs because English football did not rise to the challenge would rightly judge us harshly," he said.
Real are second in La Liga, locked on 31 points with leaders Barcelona less than two weeks before visiting their arch rivals in the 'Clasico' at the Camp Nou on Dec. Real's next opponents Espanyol are second bottom of La Liga but Zidane said there was no chance of his side resting on their laurels. They don't deserve to be where they are in the table and if we don't take the game seriously we will run into problems, there's zero chance of us relaxing," he added.
Good match of the second division of football in Turkey where the Osmanlispor team will be receiving Adana Demirspor, two sets that could be said are on equal terms as they are at a fairly acceptable level and will surely give us a very close duel and with many options for both of them so that I could end up matched that is why I will play it in this match with a victory and in case of a tie bet not valid in favor of the local team of the osmanlispor, good luck to all gentlemen and we hope to hit this forecast from today
Juventus for me is a better team than Atletico as they showed this while playing in Spain on opening day taking a 2-0 lead in that game but they relaxed and Atletico made it 2-2 till the end with Juventus missing a late scoring chance to take the lead once more, but overall impression is that Juventus is a class above their opponents and a class above all the other clubs in Italy as well.
Smolevichi reserves and BATE reserves will face each other in the upcoming match in the Reserves league in Belarus. Smolevichi reserves this season have the following results: 4W, 0D and 3L. Meanwhile BATE reserves have 1W, 1D and 5L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
MINSK, April 11 (Reuters) - Belarus is the only country in Europe still playing soccer amid the coronavirus pandemic but a growing number of fans are boycotting league matches, anxious about catching the disease. In the western city of Grodno, local team FC Neman Grodno drew with FC Belshina Bobruisk on Friday in front of almost empty stands.
The Scottish FA has now suspended football for the foreseeable future and, whilst there is no specified end date to this, it is most likely that the game will not resume until July/early August at the earliest," Budge said in a statement. This reduction in income is not sustainable without taking immediate action to cut staff costs and overheads. As such, I need to act swiftly and take steps now to ensure that we, as a Club, can weather this storm while trying to ensure we are ready to resume operations as and when we move into calmer waters and football restarts.
As Jurgen said, we haven't done the job. We haven't accomplished anything yet. There will be time to enjoy this even more at the end of the season. Klopp's absence from the FA Cup win over Shrewsbury on Wednesday threw into sharp focus the increasing demands being placed on elite level players. The Liverpool boss stayed away from Anfield in protest at the replay being staged during the Reds' winter break from the Premier League.

Well, it has been a while since this two teams have a match more than 3 months for sure and they had only like 4 or 5 training sessions as a team. Both teams are similar in quality and experience for sure and really it's tough to decide for a winner. Both teams are having great seasons but Granada are in better shape for sure especially when they play as a hosts. Also both teams are having some absences with their squad which is a blow for them and plus their fitness level is not on point so I don't expect them to force anything.
In the betting, 'Coventry to Win & Over 1.5 Goals' catches the eye. Having scored twice and outplayed their hosts in the reverse fixture, the hosts are backed to thrive at St. Andrew's. Bristol Rovers are making a habit of giving plenty away, conceding two more in three of their last four matches, while they're really struggling when it comes to being outshot and out-attacked in general, as we saw when the pair met at Memorial Stadium less than two weeks ago.
The Marine Corps official said Son would wrap up the three-week service period with a group march of up to 30km. Once you're in the military, you should be able to fire a rifle, breath in the gas and participate in a battle, rolling and crawling around the field," the official told Reuters. During the march, our regular Marine Corps recruits would bring 40 kg of equipment but it could be much lighter for alternative trainees depending on the programme.
Norwich put in another dismal display on Boxing Day as they succumbed to a potentially disastrous 1-0 defeat away to relegation rivals Aston Villa. That defeat sent them to the bottom of the Premier League table and leaves them some seven points adrift of safety.
MANCHESTER, England, Feb 6 (Reuters) - The Premier League begins its first attempt at a continental-style winter break with a staggered stoppage for clubs resulting in just four matches this weekend. While the title race appears a foregone conclusion, with Liverpool 22 points ahead of second-placed Manchester City, the battle for survival in the top flight is anything but decided.
In the betting, 'Stuttgart to Win & Both Teams to Score' catches the eye. For a start, both teams have scored in five of Stuttgart's seven home games, as well as in six of Karlsruher's seven away matches. Stuttgart's rear-guard is certainly not the strongest in the division, while their defensive record, especially at home, points towards the visitors scoring. However, the hosts are the better team, the team that has a habit of winning games at home. Quite frankly, Karlsruher, although they can compete offensively, lack the defensive strength to get a result against one of the best attacking teams in the division. The fact that Stuttgart have an average shot supremacy of +7.14 at home, as well as Karlsruher having an average shot supremacy of -5.43 on the road, adds fuel to the selection.
The English Football League says no decisions have been taken regarding the next steps after games were suspended until 3 April because of coronavirus. The EFL said its board were due to meet again this week and it would continue with its "contingency planning". A further update will be issued following that board meeting. Now is the time for cool heads and calm reflection, rather than speculation," EFL chair Rick Parry said in a statement issued on Monday.
Banfield will host Huracan for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the hosts are favorites on the home ground. However, this will not be an easy task for the hosts. Banfield is very average team in this season. Banfield is a very unpredictable team. Also, the hosts are in poor shape in recent times. On the other hand, Huracan is also not very good team. Nevertheless, the visitors will probably try to try all three points or even one point. So, the visitors wants to get the victory because they constantly getting closer to the relegation zone. My pick - Huracan to win.
Iceland midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson is enigmatic but gifted. Striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin, 22, has looked transformed under Ferguson, while another young Englishman, 21-year-old midfielder Tom Davies, can only develop via Ancelotti's wisdom. The new manager needs to make Everton tougher to beat and more steely in the face of adversity. They never came from behind to win a league game during Marco Silva's 18 months in charge.
Crewe have exceeded expectations so far this season, winning 12 of their 24 games this season and climbing to third in the league, currently occupying the final automatic promotion place in League Two. They’ve lost just six times so far this season and have conceded just 1.2 goals per game on average with the whole squad performing well. Goals haven’t been an issue for the side with six players scoring three times or more this season as they try and gain promotion to League One.
As the Argentine defender and Patrice Evra both came to clear the ball, Kaka headed it past them leaving the two men in red to collide like drunks. A sure finish in front of a bemused Stretford End and Milan were on top. The game was far from over though - Wayne Rooney collected a peach of a ball from Paul Scholes to level on the night, before powering in from range in stoppage time to give United a slender lead.
The three subsequent announcements over the tannoy cast a shadow over the final stages of the game - but there was no disguising Lampard's delight as he punched the air and threw his coat into Chelsea's celebrating supporters after the final whistle. This was a victory with an edge - and it is not difficult to guess why. There remains huge respect between Lampard and Mourinho after the successes they shared at Chelsea, including two Premier League titles.
It came in the 88th minute, when Bjorn Engels’ header was shovelled onto the post by Claudio Bravo. It was a noble defeat for Villa, though that will be little consolation in the immediate aftermath of the game. For City and Guardiola, it was yet another successful trip to Wembley. TALKING POINT City score from the corner that wasn’t VAR was being used in the Carabao Cup final, which made it harder for Villa to accept the mistake that led to City’s second goal from Rodri.
Expect there to be plenty of arguing between the two parties before some kind of compromise is made. Read the full story Andre Gomes ready to return The Telegraph reports that Everton midfielder Andre Gomes could already be on the cusp of a return to first-team action after making a remarkable recovery from a horrific injury suffered against Tottenham Hotspur last year.
In their other league defeat, a 2-1 home reverse against Liverpool in September, Chelsea had double the efforts on goal of their opponents, but again came up just short. We had relative control of the game at 1-0," Chelsea manager Frank Lampard said after Saturday's match at the Etihad. We were playing well, and throughout the game there were lots of positives, but we lost the game and it shows you that the finer details in these big games, in both boxes, can decide these ones.
Rukh Brest Res. host Minsk Res. in the Belarusian reserve premier league. This is very difficult match to predict, because there is no quality gap between these two squads, Rukh Brest Res. is ranked 4th place in 9 points, while Minsk Res. is ranked 2nd place with 10 points.
When the facts speak more than words. Thank you Aymeric Laporte, who won this auction with the wish to leave this outfit to his father," Dumoulin wrote on Twitter.

This isn’t the first time United-supporting protestors have gone directly to the homes of their targets: both Rio Ferdinand and Wayne Rooney were visited by the balaclava-d “Manchester Education Committee” at delicate moments in their contract negotiations, and back in 2004 former director Maurice Watkins’ car was covered in red paint.
VICTORY CANNOT MASK BARCA'S PROBLEMS Champions Barcelona held on to top spot with a 2-1 win over Leganes but it did not spare Ernesto Valverde's side more criticism after yet another scrappy away performance.

Barnsley haven’t enjoyed a good season so far this year, sitting second bottom of The Championship and looking relegation in the face with the three point gap to safety not really lessening over the past few weeks. The team have scored just 1.26 goals per game on average, a return that is even less impressive when you consider than 17 of their 33 goals have been scored by Chaplin or Woodrow and the team could find themselves in big trouble if either of their strikers stop finding the net with regularity.
Despite Slavia is having games with three or more goals in the competition, they are going to face Champion on the away ground, and it would be hard for them to make their play in this one. Slavia beat favorite Borisov in Mozyr, turning game 2:1, but BATE is in big drop at the time and cannot make better game without to concede few goals.
Chelsea said their training facility had been reopened for those who did not have recent close contact with Hudson-Odoi. The league has been suspended until April 4 because of the outbreak that has virtually shut down world sport. Globally, the flu-like virus has infected over 190,000 people and killed more than 7,500.
Leeds United strengthened their position at the top of the Championship table with a resounding victory at Blackburn Rovers. The visitors took an early lead when Mateusz Klich tackled Lewis Travers 30 yards from goal and slipped the ball through for Patrick Bamford to slot home. Lewis Holtby thundered an effort against the post for Rovers before Kalvin Phillips curled in a superb 25-yard free-kick to give the Whites a 2-0 lead at the break.
John Fleck's second-half double gave Sheffield United three points to move up to fifth in the table with a 2-0 win over Aston Villa at Bramall Lane. The Blades now sit just four points behind Chelsea and a Champions League place after the Blues were beaten 1-0 at home by Bournemouth through Dan Gosling's late winner, awarded after a video assistant referee (VAR) check adjudged the ball to have crossed the line.

As a shorthand, you might call it "Cool Britannia" and, basically, what it did was offer a pretext for men and women all over the country - from Aberdeen to Stevenage - to wear football shirts as fashion items and swagger about like Liam Gallagher. Out of that heady mix was born the England team's official tournament song Three Lions, written and performed by Lightning Seeds frontman Ian Broudie together with comedians David Baddiel and Frank Skinner (for the unfamiliar, think of them as a pre-digital age Poet and Vuj).
It's understood the Covid-19 outbreak reached such a point of crisis for the sport on Thursday that the leading English bodies received a call direct from the COBRA meeting, where there was an admission the situation on full attendances at stadiums may have been misread. All games in England’s Premier League, English Football League, Women’s Super League and Women’s Championship were on Friday morning postponed until April 4 but a source close to discussions told The Independent that the 'idea we are going to be playing by then is ludicrous.
