Two bits of lethal finishing gave them breathing space before the break but they only managed one further effort at goal in the second half, when Phil Foden saw his effort blocked at close-range by Aaron Ramsdale. With second-place already secured and next year's Champions League appearance now certain, they had little to play for against Bournemouth, and it showed. Man of the match - Junior Stanislas (Bournemouth) A live-wire down the right in terms of creating chances, and went agonisingly close to scoring himself with that free-kick.
They have conceded more than one goal in just one of their last 11 matches but are winless in their last two home matches. They have lost just once in the last five matches at home. Palace head to the game on four straight draws in the Premier League, while they have one win in eight league matches. They are unbeaten in four league matches at home, drawing two and winning two.
San Francisco finished top of the NFC rankings, ahead of the Green Bay Packers who they beat in week 12. They had a 10-2 record against other sides in the NFC with only Seattle Seahawks and Atlanta Falcons beating them. It's been a great season for the 49ers who won each of their first eight matches, something they haven't managed to achieve since 1990 before losing in the NFC Championship game to the New York Giants.
Both teams have scored in four of the five Lazio games in this group. Three of the five Rennes matches in this group have seen both teams score. Only one of the last eight Lazio away games has seen just one team score. Both teams have scored in five of the last six Rennes matches. 11 of the last 13 Rennes home games have seen both teams score.
Merw x Balkan Nebitci, this is a little uncharted areas when we try to set up a heap to head to see past results for example, but still it's quite easy to to the maths with past season's goals. Double chance for Balkan should be priced at 1,32 and at 1,44 it's good value. Actually this match is more likely to end up as a win for the away team than it is for the draw, but just slightly. I think it's quite safe we go for this X2 DC. I would say this match will end 0 x 1
Home team or Al Ahly is very very strong this season and if we just see the table we can see that. This team is of course, leader on the table and in this moment, and also, even that is sound pretty unreal - they are have all wins in league, without any draw or loses, 13-0-0. El Geish is team from the middle of the table and as I said before they just not have any chance to make problems to this rival. I see very dominant and easy win for home team and they will do it very easy.

They host West Ham United who are 16th and beat Bournemouth in their first league game since the arrival of David Moyes. United had a poor festive season but it was a difficult fixture list with away defeats at both Manchester City and Liverpool. Before those two losses, they were held to a 1-1 home draw by resurgent Watford.
Reading are unbeaten in their last four home matches in all competitions. Reading won this fixture 3-0 when the sides met in the Championship in August 2019. Cardiff have only won two of their last six away matches in all competitions. Two Championship clubs are set to duke it out in the FA Cup this weekend when Reading host Cardiff at the Madejski.
Mirabelli said: 'Maldini is as if he had become a doctor in one of the most important hospitals in the world without having attended the right schools. Paper Round’s view: AC Milan are currently owned by a hedge fund that came to take charge when its former owners could not service their debt, which suggests that they are not up to speed with running a football club.
West Brom can go to the top if winning this home match against Birmingham City. They only have one point from their last two league games but home form is fairly strong this season. Birmingham City could do with a win soon or they could yet be dragged into a relegation battle. They haven't been losing many games but haven't been up against sides at the top of the table. Go for Albion to get back into winning ways.

Benfica were struggling when the suspension took place. They had only won one of their last five league games and had 1 win in their last eight in all competitions. Now they can start again and try to overtake Porto and win the title. A Champions League place looks certain as they lead third-placed Braga by 13 points.
Guardiola dismissed the notion that Mourinho's methods are outdated when compared to his and those of Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp. The value of Jose, a manager with a lot of experience with a lot of success, is not to be judged on one season, or 1-1/2 seasons," Guardiola told a news conference on Friday.
We have to do that as a unit. Liverpool face a Bournemouth side who are in the relegation zone with 10 games to play but the south coast club have Joshua King, Callum Wilson and Ryan Fraser available and Klopp expects them to be dangerous on the counter-attack and set pieces. Bournemouth are dangerous from them so we have to be 100% spot on," the German said.
Shandong Luneng and Chongqing Lifan will face each other in the upcoming match in the Super League in China. Shandong Luneng this season have the following results: 13W, 6D and 8L. Meanwhile Chongqing Lifan have 9W, 9D and 9L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.

The visitors picked up a rare victory last weekend, as they saw off Hull with a 3-1 home win. That is only their second victory of the campaign, ending a 17-match wait for a win. However, the Tykes remain without success on their travels. That has played a major part in them sitting bottom of the pile as we approach the half-way point.
Tolisso then took advantage of some slack Fortuna defending, before Gnabry converted from close range to seal the points before the interval. Lewandowski, who remains on 16 goals after 12 league games, provided the cross as Coutinho slotted home with 20 minutes remaining. Elsewhere in the Bundesliga, David Wagner's Schalke are fourth after a 2-1 win at Werder Bremen, while Dortmund fought back from 3-0 down to earn a point against Paderborn on Friday.
Chris Wood had Burnley's best chance but he could only smash his effort over the crossbar from close range. Palace move up to 10th in the table, level on points with Burnley, who are eighth. Relive the action as it happenedBurnley run out of ideas after making crucial mistakesThe Clarets came into the game in fine form, having won their previous two games 3-0, but their attack lacked a cutting edge against the Eagles.
They do not have a single first-team regular past their peak. The only other top-10 club who can say the same is Manchester United. Given Liverpool's planning pedigree, however, the champions-elect could look to replace one of those nine with a star for the future, to avoid letting them all grow old together and the need for mass replacements in a few years' time. By way of warning, they may look to Sir Alex Ferguson's final title triumph in 2013, when he guided Manchester United to top-flight success but left an ageing squad who were unable to match that achievement in subsequent years.
We also feel that Union stand a good chance at keeping a clean sheet in this game. They have won three of their last four home games by a 2-0 scoreline. We feel that another 2-0 win for Union Berlin is a likely result of this game.
Feyenoord are unbeaten in their last four matches in all competitions and Zwolle have lost three of their last five matches in league and cup. Over 2.5 goals were produced in three of Feyenoord’s last five matches as well as in each of Zwolle’s last six matches, and the hosts have won three and only lost one of their seven home games this season while the visitors have lost six and only won one of their seven away games.
We’re confident that over 2.5 goals will be produced in Saturday’s match and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-1 in favour of AZ. The hosts have won 78% of their home games this season and concede an average of under 1 goal per home game but score an average of 2 goals. Willem II are in decent form and have performed very well this season and certainly carry a goal threat away from home, which is why we believe this game will be close and competitive throughout.
Everton caretaker manager Duncan Ferguson says it is not "realistic" to expect him to take the role on a permanent basis. The 47-year-old, who made 239 league appearances for Everton in his playing career, scoring 60 goals, is filling in following Marco Silva's sacking. I think the club will find a really top manager to come," he said. It is a dream of mine to be the Everton manager, but let's be realistic.
My friends tend to send me some funny pictures or whatever they write. Spanish newspapers have taken a sarcastic tone in their coverage of Wales and Real Madrid forward Gareth Bale"I find it hilarious to be honest, especially some of the pictures and stuff my friends send me. On one, it said 'triple bogey' and I've never had a triple bogey! At least give me an albatross! It's funny. Maybe to them [the Spanish media] it doesn't look great but it's just a kind of coincidence that the national team comes around this week and I've returned to full training.
Kroos scores from a corner as Real beat Valencia It was an incident-packed second half that also saw Messi have a goal ruled out by video assistant referee for handball while Gerard Pique should have taken the game to extra time but sent his header over the bar. Messi scored his first goal in 2020 but it was not enough to secure Barcelona's place in the Spanish Super Cup finalVictory means Atletico Madrid will face city rivals Real, who beat Valencia 3-1 on Wednesday, in the final on Sunday (18:00 GMT).
Players and staff had all been quarantining in team hotels all week and are being tested for coronavirus regularly. As they left the buses they wore facemasks on their way into the ground. Other people attending the games, including the media, had their temperatures checked. Fans were banned from matches, with police patrolling to make sure no crowds gathered at the venues. Only 213 people were allowed into the ground - 98 on and around the pitch (like players, coaches and ball boys) and 115 in the stands (such as security, medics and media).
Grealish a throwbackWith his socks rolled down and his shorts pulled up, Grealish looks like a throwback to a different era. He plays a bit like it too. Pulling wide to the left of a three-man support line to lone striker Wesley, the Aston Villa skipper seems a peripheral figure for much of the time. But somehow, when Villa spark into life, he is central to it. United's midfield were petrified every time Grealish ran at them.
They made a positive start to their participation in the tournament with an opening victory over Colorado Rapids. However, a draw against Minnesota United came next and it was followed up with a defeat to Sporting Kansas City, leaving Real Salt Lake outside the top two. Games between these teams have been close in the past few years.
In the betting, 'Both Teams to Score – NO' makes plenty of appeal. Bristol Rovers have conceded some goals at home this term, but they've made a habit of shutting teams out too, as they've kept five clean sheets. Moreover, AFC Wimbledon have notched in just one of their last four on the road and have generally been struggling to get going offensively, registering an average 2.75 shots on target in their last four on the road. Both teams have also scored in less than half of Bristol Rovers' home games this term.

Steven Gerrard would end his Liverpool career without the one trophy he craved the mostLiverpool were still top but City suddenly had the advantage and an old uncertainty - Rodgers had never cured defensive failings - saw a 3-0 lead conceded in 11 minutes at Crystal Palace. Never had a manager who was top of the Premier League with one game left looked so desolate. The dream had died again, emphasised by the sight of a broken Liverpool manager staring blankly into space in Selhurst Park's media suite.
We’re confident that Braga will win-to-nil on Sunday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-0. The hosts head into the game as the clear form favourites and having outplayed their guests in all departments this season. Pacos Ferreira have really struggled on the road so far this season, no just for points but also for goals.
Sheffield have been the best performing side among the three promoted side and will be regarded a good quality opposition for most teams in the season. Brighton head to this game on the back of a three – match unbeaten run, having drawn two and won one but they have just four wins in their last 15 matches.
The incident led to outrage throughout the country, with players from the Dutch national team making several public statements against racism before their Euro 2020 qualifier against Estonia on Tuesday. Netherlands midfielders Georginio Wijnaldum and Frenkie de Jong also gestured to their different skin colours as part of a goal celebration during the match.

Utrecht average 1.88 points per home game and Feyenoord average 1.25 points per away game, which points towards there being a good chance that we will see both teams take home a share of the spoils on Sunday. Utrecht concede an average of 1.00 goals per home game and Feyenoord score an average of 1.38 goals p[er away game, which is why we have backed a final scoreline of 1-1.
Varnsdorf and Brno will face each other in the upcoming match in the Division 2. Varnsdorf this season have the following results: 5W, 7D and 13L. Meanwhile Brno have 16W, 6D and 3L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Sassuolo and Cagliari will meet in the 15th round of the Italian Serie A. Sassuolo is 14th in the league with 14 points and 4 wins after 13 games. Cagliari is in 5th place with 25 points and only 2 defeats in 13 games. Sassuolo has won 3 of their 7 home games of the season. Cagliari has looked super good this season with 3 wins and 3 draws in their 6 away games in the league this season. Sassuolo has won only one of their last 5 matches and 2 of their 9 recent matches. Cagliari has been looking fantastic lately. They haven't lost in 12 games in a row and I don't think this will change after this match. Nainggolan has really helped the team and they look almost unstoppable.
However, the indictment does not specify who was behind the alleged bribery. Despite years of suspicion over how they won the vote, Qatar and Russia have always denied any wrongdoing, and both were effectively cleared by Fifa's own investigation in 2017. But Fifa may find itself under renewed pressure to reopen an inquiry into how the votes were won. The Qatar organising committee and Fifa have been approached for comment.

However, the visitors could have a chance to strike away to a side who have issues at their own ground. On top of that, there’s been a small move from the visitors as they look to fight for survival. Could Wadi Degla pull off a result against the odds to boost their chances of staying in the top flight this season?
We knew immediately after the Napoli game we have a final, and we have to make sure we are prepared for a final. We always had to do it the hard way, I can't remember one time when it was, 'Oh fine, done' a week before. We're at least used to that. Liverpool will guarantee a place in the last 16 with a draw or if Napoli lose to Genk but may need a win to top the group and avoid one of the European heavyweights in the knockout round and Klopp said they would play for a victory.

He must also have been feeling of immense satisfaction. Moyes was sacked as United boss in April 2014, less than a season into a six-year contract as Sir Alex Ferguson's successor. In the build-up to the game, Moyes said the only difference between him and Solskjaer was that the Norwegian was given time. The statistics suggest Moyes has a point. Solskjaer's results in his first 51 games as United boss are broadly similar to the Scot, who won two games more, but lost an extra one as well.
