Borussia Dortmund's title hopes have been dented by an inconsistent first phase that has seen them drop seven points behind Leipzig into fourth place, and Saturday's trip to Augsburg could prove to be a tricky start to their year. Augsburg has won three of their last four league games to climb out of trouble and into 10th place.
Basaksehir warmed up to this clash with a 2-1 away win against Rizespor in the Super Lig but it will be a bigger task taking on Sporting, whose 2-0 win over Boavista elevated them to four unbeaten matches. Basaksehir have just that one loss against Sporting in their last five matches but one thing they will be wary about is their defence, which has kept just one clean sheet in the last six matches.
Spain striker Paco Alcacer has joined Villarreal from Borussia Dortmund on a five-and-a-half-year contract. The 26-year-old scored 23 goals in 37 Bundesliga games for Dortmund after moving from Barcelona in 2018. But he has returned to La Liga, having not featured in either of Dortmund's games since Erling Haaland arrived from Red Bull Salzburg. Only Bayern Munich's Robert Lewandowski scored more Bundesliga goals than Alcacer last season.

Jack Wilshere, another former Arsenal midfielder, has played in 14 out of 69 Premier League games since arriving in 2018.

Odegaard was hugely impressive as Real Sociedad beat Osasuna 4-3 on Sunday to move fifth, setting up a goal for Mikel Oyarzabal and scoring a vicious free kick. The midfielder, who signed for Real Madrid at 16 years old, celebrated his 21st birthday with a spectacular performance at El Sadar. Although it seemed unlikely he would succeed at Real Madrid after a troubled few years in the Spanish capital, the clamour is increasing for him to return next season, instead of completing the second year of his loan.
Only problem for this bet would be that AZ played this week in the Europa League but it was a game in Holland not away from home as they secured qualification thanks to a 2-2 draw with Partizan, they are in excellent scoring form both in the league but also in the Europa League where they won 6-0 at home and 5-0 away from home with Astana, in the league they won 3-0 at Utrecht or even 4-0 away at PSV and are just as good at scoring goals at home.

Predicting the result is a little more tricky with Central Coast showing last weekend that they’ve got plenty of resolve. This game could well be a little beyond them with just one win away from home for The Mariners this season and we’re backing Western United to come away with all three points in a 2-1 win.
Look, as a lawyer I respect the system. The system we have -- Investigatory Chamber and Adjudicatory Chamber and then we have CAS in Lausanne," he said. For some administrators it’s a problem if you have an independent body. For me it’s a privilege," added Ceferin. Some media reports have suggested that UEFA officials fear abuse from City fans during the Champions League match against Real Madrid at the Etihad Stadium on March 17 but UEFA general secretary Theodore Theodoridis rejected the notion.
But the German has also nurtured in his squad the qualities that enable so many late goals. Defender Virgil van Dijk has spoken of his team's nerve and an unflinching faith in their manager's attacking gameplan. Lallana, meanwhile, claims the Reds have a "sixth sense". Speaking after the Villa game, Klopp had this to say: "It's never that we think before a game that we only want to score once and that should be enough and then you concede one and we think, 'Oh my God, we can only go for a draw now' - we want to win football games.
This is not the moment to hand a big club in dire straits to fresh hands. Mauricio Pochettino bei TottenhamGetty Images Instead, there is an out-of-work manager who knows his way around North London. Maybe it’s a total flight of fancy, and maybe he would never consider taking the Arsenal job so soon after leaving Tottenham, but could there be a better option than Mauricio Pochettino? The great fraud of the brief Emery era was his insistence upon taking the job that he wanted to make Arsenal “protagonists”.

In addition, the knowledge that Guardiola resigned as Barcelona manager in 2012 after four years in the job, citing burnout, has created uncertainty around the Catalan, leading to suggestions his time in Manchester may come to an abrupt end at the end of the current campaign, his fourth in England. Guardiola could not be any more emphatic in his denials. I want to live in this city," he said. There are lovely people here.
None of those 25 goals however, came from free-kicks. Expert view: Pump the brakes on any Haaland move but uncertainty for Odegaard The chronic underappreciation of Jamie Vardy On the one hand it can seem a daunting task to try and find an Achilles’ heel for one of the greatest players in the history of the game, yet on the other the free-kick numbers leap out at you.
Pre-match talk was not only about Liverpool setting such a record but also whether they could match the Arsenal "Invicibles" achievement of going an entire season unbeaten. Few would have expected both of those records to be torn apart by a Watford side that started the day in the relegation zone and had not won in their five previous outings. Liverpool's 3-0 loss was the biggest margin of defeat for a side starting the day top of the Premier League since November 2015But that is exactly what happened.
When they met Olympiacos on home soil, Crvena did come out on top but they do tend to be a side that is aided massively by home advantage, as their efforts on the road suggest. Away from home, Crvena lost against both Bayern and Spurs, conceding eight in the process and scoring none. Olympiacos competed much better when playing away from home against the big boys.
Arriving at the bottom of the group with just one point to their name, Lille have nothing more than pride on the line at Stamford Bridge.

While that appears well below the £39m of allowable losses set out in league rules, the sale of their Pride Park home has come under scrutiny. The Rams have leased back the ground, which was said to have been independently valued at £80m despite it being on the club's books as an asset worth £41m, from a company owned by Morris. Just months after the stadium arrangement was announced in April, the club signed England all-time record goal scorer Wayne Rooney on a player-coach deal.
Another run through the middle, this time he took the shot on and McGregor had to tip over. Rangers were offering little in return, half chances aside from Ianis Hagi and Florian Kamberi. They did, though, again test County's mettle from corners, and Aribo and George Edmundson both threatened with headers. But just as the crisis headlines were being composed, Kent received the ball on the right, stepped onto his left foot, and found the net with help from a deflection off Richard Foster to break the deadlock.

Aurora will host Nacional Potosi for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the visitors have better team than their opponent. Nacional Potosi are more ambitious team in this league. They are currently on the 4th place with 27 points. Visitors have an effective attack. In any case, I think, they will try to get the victory on the opposite stadium. Also, we have Aurora who's is one of the main outsiders in this campaign. They are currently on the 12th place with 11 points. Hosts are in poor shape. I think, they have a very difficult task. So, the visitors will try to make a positive result. They probably want to stay among the top 4 teams at the top of the table.

The year before he left for Atalanta, things started to happen with his body. He became physically stronger, his play developed, he became a much more complete player.

I had a feeling I was going to get a club mid-season. I knew I would be in a situation where I would get only one or two days before my first game. I cannot come here and think it is about myself. It is about the players and going from a base of stability. Much of the coverage around Mourinho's appointment has focused on whether he will bring a perceived arrogance into the role, a trait many believe causes him to overlook his own role in a club's failings.
Tranmere haven’t enjoyed a successful season so far, winning just five games this season and struggling to get out of the League One relegation zone in recent weeks. They’ve picked up just one win in their last eight games and haven’t been able to win consecutive games at all this season.

They were also more open at the back than usual, too, with holding midfielder Hamza Choudhury unable to give his back four the same protection usually provided by the injured Wilfred Ndidi.

Solanke) felt his hamstring in the warmup when he was having a shot on goal. He was then warming up again at halftime and felt that he couldn't sprint. He had a scan on Monday and that came back all clear, so he should be ok for the weekend's game. However, Simon Francis, who was sent off for two yellow cards against Wolves, is suspended for one game as is Philip Billing who picked up his fifth booking of the season.

Israel, Leumit Liga and it's the 34th round, the relegation group and I'm betting on the match between Hapoel Ashkelon and Hapoel Afula. The home team is in the bottom place with 26 points and the guests are in the last place with two points less. I think Ashkelon is a better team and they will dominate this match. Both teams started the league in a similar way, but currently for this match I see Ashkelon better at home, they are a much stronger team and I think the game can be settled with a draw against Afula away from home.
