Celtic come into this game on the back of a good run, although Ross County will be eager to cause an upset and gain some much-needed points themselves. However, the Staggies' poor form on home turf will make that difficult. We're going to back Celtic to win and over 2.5 goals, as Ross County have seen that happen in 100% of their home games and concede an average of 2.33. They have also managed to score at least once in 4 of their last 5 games.
And they look more solid in defence, shown in the latter stages of this game where they had to deal with Kabasele's dismissal, which was deemed a yellow-card offence by referee Andrew Madley before it was upgraded to a red. Against Wolves, who remain seventh in the table, Deulofeu and Ismaila Sarr were outstanding as they continually caused the visitors problems.
The English Football League season can be completed in 56 days when it is safe to resume amid the coronavirus pandemic, clubs have been told. But it is assumed that matches will be played behind closed doors. A letter sent to all 71 EFL clubs by chairman Rick Parry, and obtained by the BBC, said no training should resume until at least 16 May. The EFL is hopeful the campaign can finish in the summer, but there is no indication when it might begin again.
Man City qualify unbeaten from the group, seven points ahead of second-placed Atalanta and could play any one of Napoli, Borussia Dortmund, Lyon, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid or Bayer Leverkusen in the last 16. TALKING POINT Another night of significance for Foden: Pep Guardiola stressed in his pre-match conference that Foden believed the 19-year-old could be a successor for David Silva, who is leaving the club at the end of the season.
Spain's returning manager Luis Enrique says his predecessor Robert Moreno was "disloyal" and will not be part of his coaching team. Enrique resigned from the role in June to spend more time with his nine-year-old daughter Xana, who died from bone cancer in August. Moreno succeeded him but told Enrique he wanted to be in charge at Euro 2020 before returning to assistant manager. Moreno left the role after Spain's 5-0 win over Romania on 18 November.

Pogba's United career over: report Paul Pogba's controversial stint at Manchester United is nearing an end, The Sun have reported. Both parties are eager to secure a parting of the ways, according to the tabloid, with United prepared to listen to offers of around £100 million for the Frenchman, who moved to Old Trafford from Juventus for £89m in June 2016.
Sivasspor opened their campaign with a signal of championship intent by battering Besiktas 3-0 at the Sivas Stadium. They have never won a Turkish title and doing the double over one of Turkey's traditional powerhouses (Besiktas have won 15 Turkish titles) would do wonders for momentum at the start of the second half of their season.
It was Palace's third consecutive league win after a winless seven-game run and it moved Roy Hodgson's side up to 10th in the standings. Ayew gave Palace the lead with their first shot on goal when James McArthur created an opportunity for him to take a shot from the edge of the box, beating the outstretched arm of Ben Foster in Watford's goal.

The derby win over Torino was also notable for Gianluigi Buffon's record-breaking 648th Serie A appearance. Paulo Dybala put Juve ahead and Ronaldo set up a Juan Cuadrado goal. Andrea Belotti pulled one back before Ronaldo struck, with the final goal a Torino own goal. Ronaldo has now scored 46 free-kick goals at club level, with 32 for Real Madrid and 13 for Manchester United. He becomes the first Juve player to score 25 goals in a Serie A season since Omar Sivori in 1960-61.
The 21-year-old grew up in Ealing with five older brothers, all football-mad, but was never treated any differently during family kickabouts. Now she is taking the Kelly name right to the top, emerging as one of the brightest stars in the WSL and knocking on the national team door louder than ever before.
Ibiza will against Barcelona in match Spain Cup on tonight. My prediction that Barcelona will be win on this match with margin score minimal 2 goals. Event though Barcelona will play this match with second team, I think Barcelona still can defeat Ibiza on this match. Moreover Barcelona have better player in second team like as Ousmane Dembele, Anssumane Fati, Arturo Vidal and Norberto Neto. Therefore, Barcelona still more strong rather than Ibiza. Even though Ibiza have yet lose on 9 match, I think Ibiza still cannot defeat Barcelona due to they playing in different competition. Surely Barcelona will be win on this match.

Meanwhile Burnley U23 have 10W, 8D and 2L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
They added that they would not be "bullied into silence". Phew. SPFL demand proof & Hearts lash out - SundayEaster Sunday started with Ross County chairman Roy MacGregor pleading for unity, but that was soon forgotten as the claim and counter-claim recommenced. SPFL chairman Murdoch MacLennan emerged from the shadows to demand that interim Rangers chairman Douglas Park either prove or withdraw his club's claims; to insist that league places "must" be determined before prize money could be released; and to confirm that Dundee's vote only arrived after a written request from the club that "any attempted vote should not be considered as cast".

Club Brugge lost 2-1 away at European hopefuls Antwerp before the international break and will be demanding a response from their players this Thursday. Oostende’s poor form continued last time out when they were held to a 2-2 draw at home by Royal Excel Mouscron, making it ten league games without a win.
Huddersfield have improved since the Cowley brothers took charge, there can be no denying that, but they're struggling to turn the corner in terms of consistency. One week, they'll get a good result, but backing one good result up with another is proving to be very problematic for The Terriers, who've not won back-to-back games since the first week of November.
Bournemouth owner Maxim Demin says he is "committed" to the club's Premier League return "as soon as possible". Eddie Howe's side have dropped out of the top flight for the first time since 2015, but Demin believes it is the level his club "belongs". The Russian businessman Demin also aims to retain the club's best players. With speculation surrounding the likes of forward Callum Wilson and midfielder David Brooks, Demin says "these players are the future of the football club".
The US women's football team is less skilled and has fewer responsibilities than their male colleagues, according to US Soccer. Lawyers for the football governing body in the US have submitted the claims in legal papers as part of a lawsuit over equal pay filed by 28 women's national team players - the court trial is expected to start on 5 May. It stated that the job of a male footballer on the national team "requires a higher level of skill based on speed and strength" than their female counterparts.
Kylian Mbappe, an opponent on Tuesday, did not manage it. Cristiano Ronaldo did not manage it. Even Lionel Messi did not manage it. In fact, the striker has scored more goals in the Champions League in 2019-20 than the entire Barcelona team, and is the first player in Dortmund's history to score in his first Bundesliga match, first match in the German Cup and in his first match in the Champions League.
Goals in either half from Lucy Whipp and Abbi Grant gave the Blues their second victory of the season, over Bristol City, with the later adding to the goal she scored against Spurs in midweek. Marta Tejedor's side face Manchester United in their final game before Christmas which may turn out to be a telling encounter.
The Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas) dismissed the club's claims, stating they were "groundless" and "unacceptable in tone". City lost their initial bid to have Cas halt Uefa's investigation, in November. An FFP verdict from Uefa's adjudicatory chamber is understood to be close. Uefa launched an investigation after German newspaper Der Spiegel published leaked documents alleging City had inflated the value of a sponsorship deal, misleading European football's governing body.

Nottingham Forest could really do with getting three points from this game. A good end to the season could yet see them earn automatic promotion to the Premier League. A play-off spot looks more likely, as long as they can get back in winning ways. This is an ideal opportunity for them with their opponents struggling for form. Their away form is poor and they concede far too many goals. Go for a home win here.
Alba said the team had played well and proved they were not affected by the events of the past week. We showed that we are a team and that's what we need to keep on doing," he added. I think we put in a great performance, one of the best of the season. It's a real shame we conceded the goal so late but that's what football is like.

They started the season shakily but have partially corrected the malfunctioning parts of their unit at the business end of the campaign. Their home form is an example of this improvement. They have won five of their last six matches at the Estadio Víctor Antonio Legrotaglie after failing to win their opening four fixtures there when the season was only beginning.

They are still having nightmares over a recent 7-0 home loss to Vitoria Guimaraes (despite a spell of 35 minutes without conceding). Famalicao are only six points behind their opponents who occupy the final Europa League qualifying position. Only one of their last seven home league fixtures have been won but a form guide for the last ten matches has them one from bottom in the table.
While Sporting are struggling at the back, they’re in fine form going forward. The hosts have scored 1.8 goals per game at home this term, while they’ve found the net in their last 18 home matches in all competitions. We expect them to continue that fine form when they clash with Porto this week. Sporting have scored in 93% of their league games this term, while Porto have found the net in 100%, so we see goals in this clash. Both teams to score is our pick here.
Ticket sales for the tournament have now been suspended. The death toll of the coronavirus has risen to 170 and with a confirmed case in Tibet, the virus has now spread to every region in mainland China. Chinese health authorities have said there were 7,711 confirmed cases in the country as of 29 January and infections have also spread to at least 16 other countries. The Foreign Office updated its advice on Tuesday to warn against all but essential travel to mainland China, saying it may also become more difficult for British nationals in other provinces to leave.
Sportradar has been pivotal in driving the decrease in overall figures for illicit activity. From 2016 we've witnessed a decline in match-fixing across Asia by 21% and with our efforts in tandem with Sportradar, the preventive measures we've introduced have produced positive results. Gambling is technically illegal across large parts of the continent, including the five most populous nations: mainland China, India, Indonesia, Pakistan and Bangladesh.
Nothing special to say about this straight forward bet, Lida to win or draw away, it's a pretty safe one and of value at 1,45. Its real price should be at 1,31 so, we have value indeed. Lida does not lose to Smorgon since 2016, so I guess we don't have to go much further to realize this is a pretty good bet. You can risk by betting on a Lida's win but there is a big chance of this match ending up 1 x 1. The last result at Smorgon's was 0 x 0 last year. So I'll bet safely DC X2
Assisted by Hélder Costa. Lyle Taylor's first-half strike ruined Nottingham Forest's chances of going second in the Championship as Charlton Athletic eased their relegation fears by ending a dismal 12-game winless away run. Taylor powerfully steered home Naby Sarr's delicious left-wing cross after Forest lost possession and the Addicks held on with little alarm to move up to 19th place in the table, six points above the relegation zone.
The men's alpine skiing World Cup races in China, scheduled for 15 and 16 February in Yanqing, have been cancelled. The 2020 World Athletics Indoor Championships, due to be held from 13-15 March in Nanjing, have been pushed back 12 months after World Athletics sought advice from the World Health Organisation. Formula 1 says it is "monitoring" the effects of the outbreak in China in the context of the country's Grand Prix in Shanghai from 17-19 April.
Aue is very underrated for this match in my opinion. They have 9 wins at home only 3 drawers and 1 lost game. And if we look at the goals sheet, they scored 27 goals and took only 12 in their net in 13 matches played here.

I was wondering what all the hype was about. I did not realise just how good he really was until he played his first game for us. He came alive in matches, and everything about him was different. I actually set up his first goal for City, on his debut against Swansea, with a cross that he turned in at the far post - and he has obviously scored quite a few more like that since. When I look at his record now, as the highest scoring overseas player in Premier League history, I wonder why I ever disrespected him.
Motherwell assistant manager Keith Lasley: "[Stephen Robinson] and I were at the Hibs game last week and they [St Mirren] were unlucky to lose that game. The Aberdeen game was a similar story, they had chances to not only draw the game but possibly win it. Did you know? Motherwell's 4-0 win at home to St Johnstone at the weekend was their biggest margin of victory in a Scottish Premiership match since they beat opponents St.
The win on Wednesday took them to seventh place and that could well be enough to take them into the Europa League. They are only a point behind sixth-placed Wolves and four behind Manchester United in fifth, though the Reds play on Thursday at Aston Villa. Sheffield United haven't always been at their best at home this season and lost three of their first four home fixtures.
Both teams found the net in seven of Chelsea's last 12 games and in 62% of their Premier League games overall this season, and it's in that BTTS market that we feel the best value lies for Saturday's game.

Sarri will lead his Juventus team in what, over the past few seasons, has invariably been a top-of-the-table clash, fuelled by north-south rivalry. But while Juventus, chasing a ninth successive title, are leading Serie A as usual, Napoli are having one of their worst seasons since returning to the top flight in 2007 following bankruptcy three years earlier.
When playing in front of an expectant home crowd, Celtic have been particularly rampant, winning seven out of seven, scoring 27 and conceding just two. Lennon's men are yet to play a game at home without scoring at least twice, while they've now kept four clean sheets on the bounce at Celtic Park. Going forward, alongside Rangers, The Hoops are simply streets ahead of all other teams in terms of attacking quality, but they're also vastly superior at the back too. Celtic have conceded an average of just 0.29 goals at home, they've given away very few clear-cut chances and have surrendered an average of only 1.29 shots on target.
WEDNESDAY’S BIG STORIES Aston Villa! We don’t have any scientific evidence for this, but it does feel like a thing, right? A team in the thick of relegation trouble somehow manages to barrel through one of the cups, despite the fact that both competitions feature mostly the same opponents. What a strange game football is.
Besiktas meets Slovan Bratislava in El on Thursday. It really has not gone Besiktas way this tournament. The team looked in advance as one of the favorites to be able to move on, but the fact is that the team is last at 0 points after 4 games. Now, however, the simplest match is waiting, namely home against Slovan Bratislava. However, I am not sure it will be that simple. Slovan won by 4-2 at home and should probably be a little more interested in winning. However, I believe in shared pot here. The Slovan is not strong enough to go and win here.
