However the game was called off altogether, with the Bees awarded three points for a 1-0 win, while the English Football League said the club were guilty of misconduct. Their game against Doncaster was called off by the club without the knowledge of Rovers or the EFL, with Wanderers having fielded just three senior outfield players in their heavy defeat at Tranmere just three days before. Of the suspended five-point deduction, two were handed for the Brentford fixture while three were docked for the Doncaster game, which will be rescheduled and a date confirmed "as soon as possible".
Two heavyweights in the form of taking each other and definitely fireworks are expected. Wolves can wear roaming gear and still close their league season high, but this is the kicker they just won't do that. That's not in their DNA. Despite the large safety pillows they made for themselves, the team won't rest until they give everything to the title race. Five of the last seven matches have more than 2.5 goals.

The performance was a disaster," boss Ralph Hasenhuttl said afterwards. Southampton have since bounced back - so much so that they sit seven points above the relegation zone, while Austrian Hasenhuttl has signed a new contract. Only the current top four clubs have won more Premier League away games than Southampton this season. Wins at Brighton, Sheffield United, Aston Villa, Chelsea, Leicester and Crystal Palace have proved invaluable, although Saints head into the restart on the back of four defeats in five league games.
He is beginning to show the kind of form, however, that would convince Tottenham to make his move permanent. Lamela was out for so long, he has been coming back step by step. Playing half an hour against Liverpool and 90 here. You could see his fitness is coming," Mourinho said. And Gio again has been step by step.
Kenin won titles in Guangzhou, Mallorca and Hobart last year. On her way to victory in both Mallorca and Hobart, Kenin beat Jabeur. Kenin with a series of big wins including beating Serena Williams, Ashleigh Barty, Elina Svitolina, Bianca Andreescu, Madison Keys and Belinda Bencic. In this tournament, Kenin has won four matches and only Coco Gauff in the fourth round has taken a set off her.
A move to MLS would likely come sooner for Ronaldo, who at 35 may have only one or more two seasons before his body can't cope with football at the highest level anymore. Read the full story Video - 'Panic mode' Man Utd chasing Wolves forward - Euro Papers01:08 Glazers may refuse to take Pogba hit The Telegraph believes that the Glazers hold the key to the future of Manchester United star player Paul Pogba.
Skipper Steph Catley's early goal was enough to keep City unbeaten for the season after 11 wins and one draw in their 12 regular season fixtures, matching a feat the club achieved in the 2015-16 season. Obviously it's been an unbelievable season," Catley said. Today was a battle, Sydney really took it to us and it was a grind the whole game.
Bayern have also looked reinvigorated going forwards since the departure of Kovac. They have scored a total of 16 goals in their last four competitive games. They have also won each of their last four competitive games by a margin of more than one goal.
Then, with the strikers, we split them instead of playing two down the middle. When City attacked us with their full-backs, we had a counter-attack threat in both channels - Callum McManaman with his pace and trickery down the right and Arouna Kone with his pace and power down the left. Graham Barrow: "It pretty much all went to plan. City started the game really well and Carlos Tevez had a great chance early on that Joel Robles saved with his feet, but that calmed us down and it was almost like scoring a goal because it gave everyone such a lift.

In two months' time, the deaths from coronavirus are not going to have stopped. They might have reduced, but how can the Premier League justify coming back and using health workers who are would otherwise be on the beat?Even if the situation does settle down by then, those workers will still need a break if that is at all possible, mentally and physically. Yet because of the money in football, there is a clamour for it to return.
One football federation official said “all options are on the table” for the meeting and another source said those options include one-legged ties for the remainder of the Champions League and Europa League games to halve the fixture load. The focus on completing domestic competitions reflects a concern that clubs throughout Europe will lose significant ticket and associated match-day revenue by not completing the season while still having to pay player salaries.
Motherwell, who began the season in Europe under Stuart McCall, had two games to save their 30-year top-flight status. Standing in their way? A Rangers team, now under the tutelage of McCall, thrust into the play-off on the back of a spluttering campaign but powered by a support yearning to be back in the big time. All the ingredients for a classic were there. Few could have predicted how it would unfold.
Energetik are on the last place on the table. They have collected just 5 points and the situation is very complicated. The actual form is poor. Energetik have 2 defeats on the last 2 matches in the Yokary Liga. They lost 2:0 to Ahal and lost 1:0 to Sagada. The players confidence is low and that's a big problem. Kopetdag Asgabat, meanwhile, are on the 4th place. They have 11 points. In the last round they managed to beat Mew. However, they suffered 2 defeat previously. Kopetdag Asgabat failed to score in the mentioned defeats. Considering these results, I expect the points to be shared here.
Given the performances of both teams in Group A, it's easy to feel that backing the hosts to enjoy themselves in the final third, much as they did in the reverse fixture, is the way to go. Specifically, 'Qarabag to Score Over 2.5 Goals' catches the eye. Qarabag notched twice at home against APOEL, while they scored four in the reverse of this fixture. Such efforts point towards no shortage of home goals against a visiting defence that has surrendered three or more in four out of five and in two out of two on the road.
Watford’s far-flung hopes of a famous great escape received another boost on Boxing Day as they took a point away from Bramall Lane. A 1-1 draw away to Sheffield United may not seem like much of a confidence boost, but it saw them finally move off the bottom of the Premier League and to within six points of safety.
Plans to resume the league have been labelled 'Project Restart'. The league is hopeful of a potential 8 June restart and finishing at the end of July to fit in with Uefa's European competition plans. This would require full training to begin by 18 May. The league would also need up to 40,000 tests for players and staff if plans to play the outstanding games behind closed doors are pursued. On Friday, after their most recent meeting by video conference, Premier League clubs reiterated a commitment to resuming the season "when safe and appropriate to do so".
The performances are getting a bit better, but we need to start getting three points now. A missed penalty from Melissa Lawley did not help the Reds' cause either with a visit from Chelsea coming up before the Christmas break. JAMES IN THE THICK OF IT After a relatively stop-start introduction to life as top-flight player Lauren James is taking centre stage for Manchester United.
Conceded by Nir Bitton. Posted at 39' Jon Guthrie (Livingston) wins a free kick in the attacking half. Aberdeen came from two goals down to preserve their eight-year unbeaten record at Kilmarnock - but slipped further behind third-place Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership. Eamonn Brophy's penalty and Greg Kiltie's strike put Kilmarnock clear, but Niall McGinn volleyed in Connor McLennan's cross and the latter headed in the equaliser in the second half of an absorbing contest.
In addition to their poor form in recent weeks, Eintracht will carry an unimpressive away record into this weekend's game. Eintracht have currently got the Bundesliga's worst away record. They have earned just three points from a possible 24 away from home this season.
Had Taylor stayed fit, he’d likely be fighting it out for the golden boot this term. His former teammate Karlan Grant is in the mix, with the Huddersfield forward hitting his 11th goal of the campaign in the Terriers’ loss at Bristol City. The striker is impressing on the road with six goals in nine trips, with the visitors finding the net in 100% of their away games this season.
HAALAND SCORES BRACE AS DORTUND BEAT PSG He then thundered in an unstoppable shot for his second goal in the 77th, two minutes after PSG's Brazilian forward Neymar had levelled for the French champions. He is only the second teenager to net 10 Champions League goals, after Kylian Mbappe, and is the first teenager to score 10 in a single campaign in the competition.
Amstetten and Liefering will face each other in the upcoming match in the 2. Liga in Austria. Amstetten this season have the following results: 5W, 6D and 5L. Meanwhile Liefering have 5W, 5D and 6L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Cristiano Ronaldo's controversial late penalty rescued a draw for below-par Juventus in the first leg of their Coppa Italia semi-final at AC Milan. Juve looked set for a third straight away defeat after Ante Rebic's volley put Milan ahead before the hosts lost Theo Hernandez to a second yellow card after 71 minutes. The visitors offered little threat despite their man advantage but the late VAR-awarded spot-kick allowed Ronaldo, 35 last week, to make it 35 goals in 35 games for club and country.
Burnley have so far managed 18 points and are seventh on the standings while Palace are on 15 points and in 13th place. Going to this game, Burnley can rise to fifth place with a win, while Palace could go up six places to seventh with a win. Burnley registered two straight 3-0 wins ahead of this game and these have been a massive boost to them after losing three straight matches before that.
Last season Shakhtar won this game with 5-0 in the end and they are once more clear favorites for winning the title in this country and they are also not doing all that bad in the Champions League as well although they had some problems in defense there while drawing first 2-2 at home and 3-3 away from home at Dinamo Zagreb but they are too good for Lviv who is also in not so great form and I am not really counting on Lviv to score here as their form is poor but the hosts can score this much all alone.
The 27-year-old is also wanted by Bayern Munich, and Paris Saint-Germain are believed to want the player despite only signing Keylor Navas this summer from Real Madrid. Paper Round’s view: It is not clear why Barcelona would want to sell Ter Stegen, and it does not appear that the goalkeeper is interested in leaving either.
It was a really difficult game," Saint-Maximin told Sky Sports. The team played great against West Brom in the FA Cup (in midweek) and we have followed that up against Southampton. It's difficult in the head when you get a lot of chances and don't score. We kept going and I had one opportunity. We now have 35 points and that's really good because our next game is at home.
Arsenal have only one win in their last eight league games. Arsenal have failed to win any of their last five home games. Manchester City have only lost one of their last nine away games and that was at Anfield. By the time this game begins on Sunday, there could be a 17 point gap between Manchester City and league leaders Liverpool.
Despite his frustration, Neville said he had "100% confidence in my own abilities as a manager" when asked if he remained the right man to take the team forward. I know 100% that I've got the backing and trust of the players," said the 43-year-old former England international. We've got no games in April, no games in June - which is frustrating, because what the players gauge their success off is winning games of football and we're not going to have that until September.
Benfica will be outright favorites here, even though Sporting will not be pushovers. Benfica go to this game simply with the best form in Portugal and their away record in the league further boosts them. While they take on a side that has been doing well at home, Sporting have been on and off for most of the season. One factor that may work against them though is the fact that they have a porous defence and against Benfica this is very dangerous. Benfica have scored in 21 straight matches, have two leading scorers in the league and have scored two or more goals in 12 of their last 13 matches. On the other hand, Sporting have scored in 13 of their last 15 matches and also scored in each of their last 11 home matches. Though they will be the underdogs here, we expect them to hit the back of the net. We will thus go for both teams to score here, and a bet of over 2.5 goals will do.
If Juventus win the Champions League, he will equal Francisco Gento's record of six European Cups. Ronaldo and Messi currently share the record for Champions League hat-tricks with eight each. Will Ronaldo pull ahead? If he wins the Golden Boot in Italy, he will become the first player to win the award in three countries. He has currently scored 20 in the league, five fewer than Lazio's Ciro Immobile.
PSG were given food for thought last week as their usual whipping boys Monaco held them to a 3-3 draw. It was truly a match that took Paris off guard but they managed to reassert their dominance over the principality club on Wednesday when they met again due to a rescheduled league match. The Parisians strolled the game, winning 4-1 with Kylian Mbappé getting a brace.

They do tend to make up for this going forward though, failing to score in none of their home games and averaging a respectable 1.5 goals per game at Molineux. Combined with Sheffield United’s record, we think backing Both Teams to Score is a very solid option on Sunday.
Spanish Primera. Team FC Villareal will host team Sevilla at home field. Hosts did 3 wins at the last 3 games played. There were victories with difference only one goal. Team Sevilla are coming after 2 draws in the last 2 matches. My bet on guests here. They are more higher in the table. Also they lost last their 2 h2h games. Their motivation is so high to win here ! Sevilla are near Champions League zone . So, they will play very good for 3 points in this game. I recommend to try this bet with me for a good odds !
Brave Ralph and a brave displayArsenal and Liverpool were the last sides to record back-to-back wins at Chelsea in 2011 and Southampton deserved to follow Bournemouth in leaving Stamford Bridge with all three points in December. Hassenhuttl made the brave call to leave Danny Ings on the bench, despite his 11 goals leaving him second to only Jamie Vardy in the top-scorer charts this season. Obafemi - who had not netted in over a year - and Che Adams - who is yet to score for Saints - worked relentlessly for the away side, while James Ward-Prowse was the only player on the pitch to run over 12km in a tireless display.
Leeds United great Norman Hunter has died in hospital aged 76 after contracting coronavirus. The tough-tackling centre-back, nicknamed 'Bites Yer Legs', was a key player in Leeds' most successful era. He won two league titles during a 14-year first-team career at Elland Road, and was a non-playing member of England's 1966 World Cup-winning squad. Hunter was admitted to hospital on 10 April after testing positive for coronavirus.

So it’s nothing against Senna, Prost, they are they are my heroes, forever heroes. But actually, I think that level of Fernando, Lewis was amazing. That driver pairing is possibly the strongest there’s ever been. Ever. I mean, I remember looking at their data and thinking ‘these guys are from a different planet’.
The season that goes on and onMany - possibly the majority - feel the game should take its place among the things that do not matter in the midst of a global health crisis. Let the medical experts and the NHS get on with their jobs, wait for the green light and, whenever that comes, pick up where it left off and finish off all the competitions accordingly. Yet this feeds uncertainty. Thousands of jobs - far beyond the players - are directly or indirectly involved in the game.
That was followed up by narrow defeats by Barcelona and now Sevilla, both games which his side could have won. Leganes are eight points from safety but don't be surprised if they cut down that gap in the coming weeks, with key clashes against Celta Vigo and Espanyol, 18th and 19th respectively, in December.
