TottenhamSpurs are unbeaten in 13 Boxing Day Premier League fixtures (W10, D3), with their last such defeat coming at Portsmouth in 2003. They are unbeaten in all 11 of their previous Premier League home matches on 26 December (W8, D3). Spurs attempted just five shots against Chelsea (including blocked efforts) - their third-lowest total in a top-flight home game since 2003-04. Since Jose Mourinho's first game in charge of the club, no Premier League team has let in more goals than Spurs in all competitions - they have conceded 14 times, a total matched only by Arsenal.
The futures of Blues wingers Willian and Pedro are yet to be decided, but it is understood Hudson-Odoi is looking forward to the competition. Asked if he had seen any frustration from Hudson-Odoi over a lack of playing time, Lampard said: "No, but I'd expect my players to want to play as much as they can. I pick a lot on how players train daily and what they can give us, so it's the same as every other player.
Alcorcon fc disappointed their fans when they levelled the scores by Santander in their last game so here they are going to host the unbeaten team with five consecutive wins which are Deportivo La Coruna.
Effenberg last played in Qatar at the age of 35; by the time Scholl was 38, he had retired and was coaching Bayern’s Under-13s. A distraught Samuel Kuffour after the final whistleEurosport No tale of a German defeat would be complete without the word ‘schadenfreude’. There was plenty going around the United team, especially among those who had been irked by Bayern’s showboating.
Still, fair or not, this was another grim evening for Chelsea, who haven’t won in four and who a few months ago were comfortably clear in the Champions League places, ten points ahead of Manchester United. Now, they have only a one point buffer to fifth, and are only three in front of United. And as an added quirk from this game, United’s win meant that Liverpool have officially qualified for the 2020/21 Champions League, in February, the day before the 2019/20 Champions League knockout stages start.

Coutinho, on the other hand, could soon be seen purely as money. Even Antoine Griezmann is now on the market, according to Spanish outlet Sport. Interest from England? Inter Milan, Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United are all interested in the Brazilian, according to the Daily Mail.
The pressure is on both clubs in this game. Chelsea need to get back into winning ways and protect the five point lead they have over fifth place. Arsenal have to start getting wins under their new manager and somehow close the gap on the top four. A bet on both teams scoring looks the best one to make for this game.
Peterborough are now without a win in five matches, three of which they've lost. There's been times during that spell where they've been let down at the back, but their attacking players are perhaps the biggest culprits. Posh have scored in just one of their last five matches, notching just a single goal in over 450 minutes of football. Improvements are a must.
It's almost impossible - we know that - but we will be looking to put up a good fight," said the Espanyol manager. We need to score four goals and not concede any to take it to extra time. It's tough but you never know. If we could get to half-time 2-0 up then maybe we will give ourselves a chance. I wish we could make it to the next round. We have to fight but also we have to a get a good feeling back among the supporters.
Nantes' recent league form has been strong and the side have every reason to be confident prior to kick off in this one. Indeed, they've won 3 of their last 4 league outings, including each of the last two and having also won 6 of their last 8 Ligue 1 home matches, their prospects look fairly bright as regards securing 3 points this weekend.
Ultimately, with the home crowd behind them, Monarcas Morelia have to be considered clear favourites in this fixture. They played well over the opening phase of the season and having already got the better of Toluca on the road, they'll be confident of dispatching of them once again.
The good news for Spurs was that they only lost 1-0. If you were being cruel you could call it a moral victory given how Leipzig carved Spurs open, only the heroic keeper Hugo Lloris keeping the scoreline within manageable proportions. It was almost unbroken frustration from start to finish, with Leipzig actually creating four chances inside the first 90 seconds during which Lloris turned Angelino's shot onto the post and blocked Timo Werner.
Like anything, you have to take the positives out of it and do what you can. So far, me and the family are well, and I’ll continue to work hard, work in the gym, work from home and do what I can. We’ll just have to wait and see. My family is well, and obviously everyone is thinking about coronavirus at the moment and it’s a time to be together, to stay safe and hopefully everything will be all right.
She had given 14 years of loyal service to her childhood club Charlton but when the offer to go full-time at Tottenham came along, it was just too good to refuse. The 24-year-old Kent-born forward joined the Addicks when she was nine and scored more than 200 goals for the club before Spurs came calling following their promotion to the Barclays FA Women's Super League this season.
Nicknamed 'The Cat' due to his reflexes, Bonetti made over 700 appearances for the Blues across two spells and also won seven caps for the England national team, and was a non-playing member of the victorious 1966 World Cup winning team. Chelsea Football Club is hugely saddened to announce the passing today of one of our indisputably all-time great players, Peter Bonetti," a club statement read.
Liks last season, they started this campaign in confident and clinical fashion, opening up a wide gap between them and their automatic promotion rivals. Things fell apart last season and a play-off defeat spoiled their season. History is threatening to repeat itself for Leeds. At the time of writing, they remain second in the table but it's only a matter of time before their poor results see them slip further down.
BATE finished second in the Belarus Premier League last season. BATE have won 11 of their first 13 home league games. Rukh Brest have already lost one away game this season and are a newly promoted side. BATE Borisov finished second in the Belarus Premier League season but have made a slow start to the new term.
They played like the home team in one of the Premier League's more unusual derbies, which developed in the 1970s because of a rivalry between the two clubs' managers at the time - Terry Venables at Palace and Alan Mullery at Brighton. Most of Brighton's efforts in the first half were from long range, as Palace held them at arm's length. Aaron Mooy curled wide from outside the box, while Yves Bissouma and Pascal Gross had efforts from distance saved.
Hannover and Holstein Kiel will face each other in the upcoming match in the Second Bundesliga. Hannover this season have the following results: 6W, 8D and 9L. Meanwhile Holstein Kiel have 9W, 6D and 8L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Aston has already gained experience and drew 0-0 with Sheffield, but is still in a relegation zone despite winning a point against 6th team. Chelsea sit fourth and is hoping for a UCL place. The squad is powerfully upgraded (see Werner for 50 million). Nevertheless, the environment is unfamiliar, so I trust Underdog Aston to have a small or large surprise here. Both teams must take points in this match. The Villains in terms of rescue and Chelsea to secure place in UCL. I think the two teams can shake the nets at Villa Park this afternoon in view of their needs but also of their recent games. The Villains have scored at least one goal in their last 11 games at home and Chelsea have seen both teams score in 4 of their last 5 games at home.

Relive Saturday's EFL action as it happenedOnce again it was the Championship's joint top scorer Mitrovic who made the difference in a game which looked like it might end goalless. The 25-year-old's strike was all about instinct inside the box. It took him to 20 league goals for the first time in his career and up to 28 in 33 games for club and country this season. Fulham have now only lost one of their past nine Championship matches to give themselves a real chance of returning to the Premier League at the first time of asking.

Reims have built much of their success this season off of their aforementioned impeccably strong defence but this has often starved the attack of opportunities. They did score three goals against Saint-Étienne last week but this was the first time they'd done that this season, and just the second time since February. Reims have scored the third least goals in Ligue 1 this campaign but currently sit ninth due to their defence conceding the second least goals of all teams in the division.

And it was significant Pochettino felt compelled to talk about players with "different agendas" after the humiliating League Cup exit to League Two Colchester United. In 2019, no Premier League side has lost more games in all competitions than Spurs' 18. The last time they lost more in a calendar year was in 2008 when they suffered 19 defeats under Juande Ramos and Harry Redknapp. Tottenham sack Pochettino after five and a half yearsHow Pochettino's Spurs reign unravelled - in numbersHas Levy made the right decision?Outsiders - and indeed plenty of Spurs supporters - were quick to condemn the haste of Pochettino's departure and the brutal manner in which it was announced.

A game in Spain which started last December before being stopped because of offensive chanting was finally completed on Wednesday as the country's football season restarted. The concluding 45 minutes of the second-tier match between Madrid side Rayo Vallecano and Albacete were played out in the capital - 179 days after the game started - without spectators. The original match was goalless when a decision was made to stop it at half-time on 15 December after Vallecano fans chanted that Albacete forward Roman Zozulya was a Nazi.
this is going to be great game, second versus the first on the league table and difference between them is 7 points,Hamburg is favorite since they are playing at home but they are not in best shape and also on the other side arminia Bielefeld is very tough team to beat so I think we are not going to see a lot of goals in this match and probably team which score first will win the game or it will be draw 1-1 but either way I think we are not going to see more than two goals being scored here
Newcastle will be used as a vehicle to prevent justice' The test of Newcastle fans appears to have been passed already. A poll of 3,410 Newcastle United Supporters' Trust members found that 96. Saudi-led takeover. But McGeehan warns: "It's fair enough for Newcastle fans to want the money and success but their desire for that doesn't trump the need for the victims to get justice and accountability. The club will be used as a vehicle to prevent that happening.
With the A-League season suspended due to the coronavirus outbreak, Perth Glory and Central Coast Mariners have issued stand-down notices to all their players. Media reports said Adelaide United and Western Sydney Wanderers had taken similar actions. We will continue to fight for the players who have been dumped and preserve their legal rights, including challenging the stand down notices and, where instructed, seek free agency on the basis of this breach of contract," Professional Footballers Australia (PFA) chief executive Didulica said in a statement http://pfa.
Osijek is currently on an Europa League place with 30 points while there are two teams just 2 points behind them, they are also just 4 points away from the 2nd place and a potential Champions League place for next season because of the great results Dinamo Zagreb has had in recent seasons mostly in Europa League of course.
It's not easy to manage him at all!" Tuchel told France Info. He has a big, big heart, but, unfortunately, he does not always show that he is a generous, reliable boy. Sometimes it is provocative and it's very bad because it's not necessary. Klopp ready for Napoli fight Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said Champions League visitors Napoli will be tough to beat on Wednesday night.
The FAI has been hit by a series of scandals since it acknowledged this year that it had broken state funding rules by failing to tell authorities about a short-term loan made to it by former chief executive John Delaney to deal with cash flow issues in 2017. Sport Ireland, the state-funded coordination body, appointed accountants to carry out the forensic audit in May, a month after it suspended state funding for soccer over the FAI's failure to comply with grant approval terms.
Young Gorodeya team started this league with one draw and three defeat games. Their goal difference is currently 1:14 and team is at the bottom in the Reserve league. They are taking on Energetik - BGU in Minsk, and will have another tough challenge here. However, home team is not playing much better, and currently have only one point more than away side.
Similarly, Arsenal have averaged just 1.0 goal per game under the direction of Mikel Arteta, and shorn of the services of Aubameyang, who scored 50% of their goals in their last six games, the Gunners shouldn't be expected to improve on their average this weekend.
Barcelona is facing a lot of difficulties at the moment, from internal instability to injuries. The two players who attacked Suarez and Dembele for long periods of time made Barcelona recruit Braithwaite from Leganes as a backup for Messi, Griezmann or Ansu Fati. On the La Liga standings, Barca is still chasing rivals Real Madrid when they are 1 point behind their rivals. This round, Real will play later on the trip to Levante, and if Barca pass Eibar, Barca will create pressure on "white vultures" in the next match. Winning Eibar is something no one doubts, the problem is how much Barca will score.
However, as Arteta has been at pains to point out in the early weeks of his tenure, the Gunners are a work in progress and one that will not necessarily improve at lightning pace. But the obvious negatives were outweighed by the positives he can take from the game - not least the continued impressive displays of some of his young players and the ongoing potency of Aubameyang. It was somewhat surprising to see 18-year-old wing-back Saka initially left out, but an injury to Sead Kolasinac meant he was unleashed early on, and he quickly made his presence felt with a wicked curling cross for the opener.
Mikel Arteta has lifted the mood around Arsenal and instilled a belief in the players for the rest of the season. We think they better placed to face Manchester City than they were earlier in the season when they got tonked 3-0 at home. However, the weak backline and average midfield of the Gunners suggest another defeat is on the cards. Back De Bruyne, who scored twice in that reverse fixture, to score anytime.
Yes, this will be one of the best matches tomorrow and I will really enjoy in this interesting duel. This two rivals are playing excellent football and I believe that they will be on that level and this time. Trabzon is great, and for me, they are first favorite for the title. They are not so long ago, beat Yeni Malatyaspor 3-1, very easy as a guests, and one more fact is important. Istanbul Basaksehir is in Thursday played very hard match against FC Kobenhavn, in Europa League (1-0), and they are tired. I believe Trabzon will beat them at home.
Ponferradina is in bad shape and they have only five points more than team which are in the relegation zone and this is an important match for them, they are much better team at home where they have lost only one from 16 home games with seven wins and home field is big advantage for them.
Hosts may be newly promoted but remain unbeaten after 3 games played by them this season as they drew both away games at two other newly promoted sides first a 2-2 draw at Lokomotiv Pamir and a strange game last round at Dushanbe 83 as odds before the game switch from 2.00 for the away win to 1.30 for the home win and still it ended just a 0-0 draw in the end but very strange odds movement in that one.
Monday's victory over West Ham United equalled Manchester City's record of 18 straight Premier League wins between August and December 2017. It's so special. The numbers are incredible, so difficult. I said we wanted to write our own stories, create our own history," said manager Juergen Klopp. Another game with potential implications for Champions League places sees Spurs take on Wolverhampton Wanderers on Sunday while Chelsea travel to struggling Bournemouth on Saturday.
But then Kaka entered the scene. The best player in the world in 2007, the Brazilian collected a pass and glided past Gabriel Heinze with ease before planting a fine low shot into the far corner. It was a beautiful goal, but nothing on what was to follow as Milan's playmaker made fools of the United defence. He chased a ball down the left wing, headed past Darren Fletcher and then flicked the ball over Heinze's head.
