Their most recent game saw them win 5-1 at Empoli, who still have promotion hopes of their own, though not if they play like that. Cosenza had won their previous three games all by a 2-1 scoreline. Home form has been good of late with only one defeat in their last five and three important wins. That is a big improvement as they have only won five at home all season.

I learnt about Manchester City's history and in the bad, bad moments, the support was almost higher or louder than, for example, now. If you are looking at the trophy cabinet, [United] are better, no doubts about that. Numbers are numbers and in that situation they've lifted more titles than us. But we're trying to be there for as long as possible and for City fans, Manchester City will always be better.
Neither of these two teams have been solid at the back this season. Werder Bremen currently have the Bundesliga's worst defensive record. They have conceded 40 goals in 16 Bundesliga games. Meanwhile, Cologne have not been much better at the back this season. They have conceded a total of 32 goals in their 16 Bundesliga games.
I had a bet on Chennaiyin when they hosted Goa last league game in the league and it was covered by half-time of the game as Goa had the lead 3-0 already after the end of the first half while Chennaiyin put on a better fight in the second half making it 2-3 but lost the game with 4-3 in the end, still 7 goals scored and it was not their only game with many goals scored in the league so far this season as they are insecure in defense but decent at scoring goals.
I could come and work on Arsenal’s defence and make them better tomorrow, not a problem whatsoever. I’ve done it everywhere I’ve been – Newcastle, Blackburn, Bolton, West Ham Crystal Palace, Everton, I’ve done it all there. But what you can’t do is get the front line performing that much better, you’ve got to hope you’ve got good quality players up there, and Arsenal have.

Wycombe boss Gareth Ainsworth is the longest-serving manager in the top four divisions of English footballChairboys make fast startWycombe took the lead from their first corner of the game as left-back Jacobson caused panic in the Oxford defence, his left-footed inswinger catching out goalkeeper Eastwood who was unable to punch it clear.
Dimitar Berbatov was often viewed as lazy during his time playing in England. What his critics didn’t know was that this was all a part of the striker’s plan. In a wide-ranging interview with BBC Radio 5 Live, the former Tottenham and Manchester United forward revealed that his languid playing style was in fact a ploy to lull defenders into a false sense of security. With 94 goals in 229 Premier League games, it would be fair to say that it often worked.
When I was growing up, Wednesday were always the more successful side. But now, even the blue side of the city can't help but like Wilder and watch from across the way to see what is going to happen next. Wilder is keeping the traditions, the work ethic and the old-school approach, but fusing it with modern, progressive and innovative football while maintaining what the fans expect. He's doing it with a humility and genuineness that is the mark of Sheffield and its people.

Sancho and Dortmund team-mate Achraf Hakimi wore "Justice for George Floyd" T-shirts, while Schalke's American captain Weston McKennie wore a similar armband. Marcus Thuram of Borussia Monchengladbach kneeled in tribute to Floyd after scoring, replicating the actions of NFL star Colin Kaepernick, who has protested about oppression towards black people in the United States.

They should get plenty of opportunities here against a Valladolid side that have kept just one clean sheet on their travels and conceded at a rate of just under two goals per game, so we're going for a 2-1 scoreline as we also expect Celta to concede following just three clean sheets in 14 outings this season.
In the big picture, football is a really small matter," Tim Sparv, captain of tournament debutants Finland, said. Now it's about life and death and trying to control the spread of the virus.

Where is your team going this winter break?Gallagher extends Aberdeen loan dealMcInnes was speaking at Aberdeen's training base on the outskirts of Dubai after a year of change at the Pittodrie club. Not only has the Scottish Premiership side opened up a new training facility, but Dave Cormack has taken over as chairman from Stewart Milne.

Just a few weeks ago, it looked as though Oxford were marching towards the top of League 1, though they've since come crashing back down to earth with back-to-back defeats, losing to both Doncaster and Rotherham.

Morelos, no goal against Celtic in more than 12 hours coming into this, should have scored, but instead he put it over the bar from close range.
I'd be lying if I said I felt the equaliser coming. My goal came from nowhere. Arsenal were much the better side in the second half and they had started their 'oles', knocking it around, looking confident. I was trying to get some pride out of the team and myself. When Gael Clichy slips and I nick the ball off him I was looking for bodies to pass to but there was nobody there so I just thought I'd take on the shot and it goes in.
The principality side opened the scoring thanks to league top scorer Wissam Ben Yedder's 18th goal but Kasper Dolberg completed a double in stoppage time to give the hosts a deserved victory. Monaco, who had drawn their two previous games, were reduced to 10 men in the 86th minute when Stevan Jovetic picked up a red card for a dangerous tackle, seven minutes before Dolberg netted the winner.
On the European front, Atleti’s midweek 1-0 loss against Juventus in Turin means they need to beat Locomotiv Moscow at Wanda in a fortnight’s time to guarantee their progress to the Last 16 of the Champions League – a feat they should manage although the circumstances will inevitably heap plenty of pressure on Simeone’s men.

The rule itself seems odd in isolation, but when you apply it to the very specific circumstance that it has been today, then it becomes even more absurd. Barcelona have apparently successfully appealed to the Spanish authorities that because Luis Suarez and Ousmane Dembele are out injured for the foreseeable, they absolutely need another striker.
I remember when Pep Guardiola, after winning a championship, seriously considered the idea of putting him in midfield for a match," Rummenigge told the club magazine '51'. I had trouble getting Pep Guardiola to give up on this idea, which some might have taken as being arrogant. Bayern were dominating the Bundesliga at the time, however Rummenigge agreed that Neuer's ability with the ball meant that it was not such an eccentric idea.
He is the top scorer in Europe's top five leagues, with his nearest competitor 10 goals behind. He said after this week's quadruple he is "addicted to scoring goals" - and now the 31-year-old will have his eye on Lionel Messi's record for most goals in a single season.
