Gennaro Gattuso was looking for a reaction from his side after they fell to a shock 3-2 defeat at home by Lecce last weekend, and Mertens’ curling shot on the 65th minute was enough to edge them to victory. The Belgian's goal was a rare moment of quality in a keenly contested encounter, and moved him to within one goal of Marek Hamsik's club record tally of 121 strikes for the club.
That would also lead to the Premiership being called on the same points per game basis if the SPFL board - of which Rangers managing director Stewart Robertson is a member - "determines the games cannot be played". Rangers, Hearts, Partick Thistle and Falkirk are among the clubs to have publicly declared their intention to vote against the league's proposal. Over the last 36 hours, we have received numerous reports from fellow Scottish clubs relating to attempts to coerce and bully them into voting for the SPFL's own resolution," Rangers added.

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?
Equally, when Tottenham got their second, Mourinho first yelled at the group of players to his left who were celebrating - then, when he got no response, to Toby Alderweireld 40 yards away to his right, to deliver an instruction. I want to do my things and I have started doing my things," he said afterwards with a glint in his eye. I hope that you [the media] don't understand it very well and you don't speak about it a lot.
Smith said "a reaction was needed" prior to kick-off in Burnley and his players responded, creating goalscoring opportunities in both halves and deserving the three points. The Villa boss mixed things up at Turf Moor, starting with a back three and playing Grealish in a more central role going forward and it paid off. Grealish was at the heart of everything positive for Villa, playing three key passes and being involved in both goals.
Guardiola, however, is in no rush to lose his right-hand man. I'd like him to stay with us," he added. Manchester City has a person of incredible value to work here in the future. But professional desires are professional desires. Everyone is more than satisfied to have him here. He is an incredible human being and works a lot.
Kane is ruled out until April with a hamstring tendon injury that requires surgery and Mourinho is also without midfielders Moussa Sissoko and Tanguy Ndombele while goalkeeper Hugo Lloris is still out following elbow surgery. Tottenham have won only once in their last four league games after initially enjoying a bounce when Mourinho replaced sacked Mauricio Pochettino -- hardly encouraging with the Liverpool juggernaut heading to north London.
The Portuguese fullback, whose Southampton contract expires at the end of the campaign, has made 138 appearances since joining the south coast club in 2015. The 28-year-old becomes Arsenal's second signing in the January transfer window following the arrival of Spanish defender Pablo Mari on loan from Flamengo.
Fulham manager Scott Parker told BBC Radio London:"I am disappointed we have not been able to get a result out of the game, but I am disappointed with our performance as well. We didn't defend well and I didn't think we had enough quality in the final third. At both ends of the pitch we weren't on it and ultimately we need to improve on that.
Townsend told BBC Sport: "I love watching my son play football, I love watching his team play and I love every aspect of what football brings, but these are uncertain times and ultimately I don't want to be watching him with worry right across my face. I don't think I could watch the game comfortably any more if we do go back anytime soon because you are worried about what he is walking away from and what he may be opening his family up to too.
Ahead of this league clash, fifth place United have 62 points while West Ham United, who are placed 15th, have 37 points. Manchester United were handed a 3-1 beating by Chelsea in the FA Cup semi final on Sunday, reducing their prospects of winning any silverware in the season. They still have the Europa League to play for though and are fighting for a top four finish.
They added: "Until the club, especially the senior management structure, is running efficiently, effectively and ambitiously then few other issues can, or will, be satisfactorily resolved. The last decade, notwithstanding the FA Cup wins, can legitimately be seen as lost years, both on and off the field, when the team has not only stagnated but actually regressed. To date, that is the legacy of the 'Kroenke years'.
The Portuguese is having to contend with injuries to Moussa Sissoko and Harry Kane. Despite the lack of activity, Mourinho is sanguine with the Mirror carrying these quotes: "This isn't about a list of players. January is a strange market, it's not an easy market to be in. It's a market of opportunity, a market where an opportunity arise and you have the conditions to do it or not to do it.

I think that this game is decisive in the fight for the championship. Especially for Arminius. The team has a much easier calendar, games will be with middle men and only in the last round will the game with Heidenheim. Hamburg is getting harder, two games in a row with the Top 3 teams. And in the last round, we were sadly lost points in the 94th minute, missed the second goal and a draw. Guests will be satisfied with a draw in this match, because Hamburg and Stuttgart have the next game. It will be hard to ward Heking. Plus, the guests in the defense look good, I think they can restrain the hosts' attack. I believe that the guests will try to give all their strength, at least for 1 point, in order to facilitate the champion's way.

Frenzied finish at Rush Green West Ham looked to have been beaten at Rush Green when Lauren James came off the bench and slotted home to put Manchester United 2-1 up with ten minutes left on the clock. But there was plenty left to unfold for the 1,700 fans who made the trip to Romford as Katharina Baunach's set piece made its way all the way through the United defence and into the net.
With the busy festive period now in the rear view mirror, it is a good time for teams to take stock of how their season has gone so far and what they need to improve on for the remainder of the campaign if they are to accomplish their goals. For fans of Crawley Town, they will be reasonably satisfied with where they are so far as they are well away from the danger zone and have set a solid platform to build on.
The deal is subject to a medical, scheduled to take place in Milan on Friday, and the agreement of personal terms. He has played 261 times for United and was club captain this season, although he only started 10 league games in 2019-20. Young, who has played 39 times for England, joined United from Aston Villa in 2011 and has been part of squads that won the Premier League in 2012-13, the FA Cup in 2015-16, and both the League Cup and Europa League in 2016-17.
TALKING POINT - The win that saved Pellegrini? West Ham came into this game on a dire run. No wins since beating Manchester United on September 22, and only two points in the league since. Throw in the League Cup humiliation by Oxford United and Pellegrini had found himself on the rocks. West Ham United's Chilean manager Manuel Pellegrini (L) talks to West Ham United's English midfielder Mark Noble during the English Premier League football match between Chelsea and West Ham United at Stamford Bridge in London on November 30, 2019.
Miami Heat are having another strong month, particularly at home. They take on Indiana Pacers who owe their good season record to their home results. Away form isn't so promising as was seen in the heavy loss at Milwaukee this month. Go for Miami Heat to get the win in this game.
His second was a brilliant, instinctive finish, and he lead the line with aplomb all evening. City will need more of the same in the coming weeks.

Guardiola: Rodgers has made Leicester title rivals Brendan Rodgers has made Leicester Premier League title rivals, says Pep Guardiola. While Guardiola's champions were held to a frustrating 2-2 draw at Newcastle United at the weekend, leaving them 11 points behind leaders Liverpool, Leicester secured a last-gasp 2-1 win over Everton the following day to cut the gap to eight.

More importantly, the club remains an aspirational example for their troubled city. As Lozano said in an interview with French football news site sofoot. Calais’ municipal council: “The six years spent at the club affected me, but also the mentality of the locals, their way of fighting, going beyond their limits, rejecting adversity. Calais is forging characters. Even 20 years on, the legacy of the club’s now legendary achievement lives on in the city, both in memories and mortar.
The hosts may have taken a hit of late, but this clash could put them back on track. Inter head into this game with a six-game winning streak at home to Genoa behind them. The hosts have won five of their last seven in Serie A and we expect them to claim a win against a Genoa side who have lost three of four trips to the top five.
Goals from Olivier Giroud and Marcos Alonso proved to be decisive in the Premier League meeting but Lo Celso was controversially granted a reprieve after a lengthy VAR referral following a stamp on the Chelsea skipper. PGMOL (Professional Game Match Officials Limited) has subsequently admitted to Sky Sports that the decision not to dismiss Lo Celso was a "human error by video officials".
How do you celebrate a league title win in lockdown? That is the bizarre scenario facing three clubs in the wake of the SPFL's vote to end the lower league campaign. Dundee United are now Championship winners, Raith Rovers edge to triumph in League One, while newbies Cove Rangers romped to the League Two title. But with no confetti, street parties or bus parades, what did the players and staff at the trio do to revel in the news while social distancing?

Leicester striker Jamie Vardy will soon end his run of games without a goal and reach a century of Premier League goals, predicts boss Brendan Rodgers. Vardy, 33, has scored 97 times in the Premier League but is without a goal in nine matches in all competitions. I have no doubt he'll get the goals and it's a matter of time before he gets back to scoring again - sometimes you get a run like it," said Rodgers.
All things considered, we feel that backing an away win is the only way to play as far as the betting is concerned in this match and is something we're more than happy to do with maximum confidence. Barnet have scored an average of 4 goals a game over their current winning streak and that kind of attacking firepower could well set them on their way to a 2-1 margin of victory.
According to the Sun, the Premier League side are weighing up a £30 million move for Everton centre-back Mason Holgate at the end of the season. Holgate has attracted the attention of Guardiola with his impressive performances since Carlo Ancelotti took charge at Goodison Park. The 23-year-old defender can also play at right-back and in defensive midfield.
Amiens have scored eleven goals in their last six home matches and with Montpellier conceding twice in half of their last six away days, we're backing the hosts to get some goals here. Even against weak teams like Dijon and Metz they have conceded twice, therefore we are predicting Amiens to do the same given their home form. The last clash between these teams ended 4-2 to Montpellier but the score was 1-1 before Amiens' Ferney Otero was sent off. After that la Paillade really took control but we have more faith in the hosts this time as three of the last five clashes between these sides have ended level. The away side are in pretty good form but with their woeful displays on the road we doubt they'll get the win here so we're backing a 2-2 draw. We are also liking the look of the team goals market with Amiens scoring over 1.5 due to their attacking displays at home.
That's left them eight points adrift of the final Europa League place but only seven above the relegation play-off position. They are unbeaten in their last three at home but the last two have both ended in 2-2 draws. Getting a point from their last home fixture was an achievement as they trailed Fortuna Dusseldorf with just two minutes of normal time remaining.
Under 2.5 goals have been scored in four of Dijon’s and five of Metz’s last six matches and both teams have scored in three of Dijon’s and four of Metz’s last five matches, which is wy we have backed a final scoreline of 1-1 between the pair this Saturday. Dijon have drawn two of their last three matches and Metz have drawn four of their last six matches, suggesting a stalemate could well be on the cards this weekend.
That’s a great opportunity for the Welsh side, who sit just a point shy of the playoffs following their 0-0 draw with Barnsley at the weekend. With their promotion hopes being put to the test in their opening game of 2020, the Welsh side need to inflict another away defeat on Charlton.
Lazio 1-1 Roma, 29 November 1992Another huge game. Gazza called his first Rome derby "life or death" and he fittingly marked it with a thumping header, his first goal for his new club, three minutes from time to save a point. Mobbed by his team-mates, the goal caused havoc in the stands and endeared him to the club's fans. Overall though Gazza's time in Italy was beset by injury problems - he would score just five more Serie A goals.

Paper Round's view: It's no surprise that clubs are accepting that they will have to meet Dortmund's demands for Sancho. The 19-year-old is one of the brightest young prospects in world football at the moment, so the Bundesliga side know they can ask for £120m. It was always likely that Sancho would return to the Premier League after taking the risk to leave Manchester City and search for first-team football back in 2017 and it has been widely reported that he was a childhood Chelsea supporter.
