Real Bamako will host Duguwolofila for this fixture of the league. I expect, this will be a very tense match for both sides. Both teams will try to make a positive result. I believe, the hosts are favorites on the home ground. I expect, they to dominate in this match. In previous game Real Bamako is won 3-0 against Tombouctou. Also, we have Duguwolofila who's is also strong team. The visitors are undefeated in their last 5 matches. However, they have big fluctuations on the road. So, I think, the hosts will try to make a positive result. After all, this will be a very interesting match.
PAOK are unbeaten in 51 Super League 1 matches. PAOK have not lost in the last 11 matches between the two sides. Eight of the last 11 matches between the two sides have ended in draws. Aris have no loss in the last four home matches. PAOK have scored two or more in 12 of 15. The Greek Super League 1 resumes on Saturday 4th January after the Christmas break and among the matches in line, Aris will be hosting PAOK.
Losing the first leg wasn't part of the plan, but Monday's hosts probably won't be too downbeat ahead of the return leg. After all, they only lost by a single goal, while they produced moments of promise, moments that will leave them feeling confident ahead of a game on their own patch.

After seeing off Crystal Palace’s Wilfried Zaha, Sterling eased past Everton midfielder Gomes to set up a semi-final against Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold on Saturday. But while Sterling’s success on the real grass had been down to those extras hard yards put in on the training pitch, his approach to the virtual game is a lot more relaxed. I’ve tried to stay off the console. I don’t want to keep thinking about the game.
Pep Guardiola thinks he will be regarded as a failure at Manchester City if he does not win the Champions League. The former Barcelona boss has won five major trophies since arriving at City in 2016, including Premier League titles in 2017-18 and 2018-19. However, European success has so far eluded Guardiola. Last year was an extraordinary one for us but people say, 'But you didn't win the Champions League'," he said.

Cristiano Ronaldo is set to make the 1,000th senior appearance of his illustrious career when Juventus travel to SPAL in Serie A on Saturday. The Portugal star has played 835 games in club football and 164 on the international stage, scoring 724 goals in the process.

Atleti sit in sixth place in the table and Simeone's job is said to be under pressure, which could benefit Everton who are looking to lure the 49-year-old to Goodison Park.

Watford opened the scoring in the 38th minute when Gerard Deulofeu dashed towards the goal line, spun to his left and chipped the ball over towards Troy Deeney who headed powerfully past Villa goalkeeper Pepe Reina from close range. Villa pulled themselves back into the game in the 68th minute when Watford keeper Ben Foster parried a Matt Targett shot from a tight angle back across the goal and into the path of substitute Douglas Luiz who blasted the ball into the net.
With his team-mates unable to open the scoring, the trusty Cosgrove took it upon himself to spark the Pittodrie crowd into life by cushioning in his 19th of the season shortly after the break in front of the Richard Donald Stand. McGinn - making his 300th Aberdeen appearance - was the man who patiently waited on the left-hand side to deliver the nicely weighted cross to the back post for Cosgrove to do what he does best.
You don't think those clubs looked at him and thought, shall we give him a chance? They knew what they were getting, an experienced manager who deals with things when things are right, the club is settled. When the squad is strong, he can take them to the next level. Taking a team to the next level where they win things is the hardest thing in football. Rzouki says: "Ancelotti is not like someone like Inter manager Antonio Conte or others because he lets you think by yourself and win it by yourself all the time.

Lampard also has the FA Cup final to come against Arsenal so, like Solskjaer with the Europa League, he may yet have tangible reward for his endeavours this season. There is also the finance to consider. According to the Sport Business Group at Deloitte, Chelsea and United will earn a minimum of around 55m euros (£50. Champions League. Leicester will only receive 8m euros (£7. Europa League. Those scenes at the final whistle were not the considerations of hard cash.
So as things begin to fall slowly into place, BBC Scotland examines what has been discussed and the remaining stumbling blocks as the game continues to tackle a turbulent time. Premiership clubs to stream games after Sky dealPhilanthropist's £2m to be split equally between 42 clubsSPFL asks clubs about 14-team top flight for five yearsClubs told of restrictions when team training returnsIs reconstruction moving closer?Kind of.
Solskjaer said discussing the club's recruitment policy is an unwelcome distraction ahead of Wednesday's home match against Burnley. For me, now is not the time to speak about recruitment. We're looking to the next game against Burnley," the Norwegian head coach added. We're always looking to improve the squad and to improve the club but for my mind, now is not the time, Gary, to start this discussion.
St. Pauli is stronger than Nurnberg and being able to come back with a home match will probably show us that even more. It doesn't make any sense to see previous results at St Paul's at this time as the last time it happened was two seasons ago. But we can have an idea looking at the 1st round of the league, where at Nurnberg's the result was 1 x 1. Nurnberg is really struggling to keep their head out of the water, and stands only 2 points above the red line. This is a safe value bet at 1,45
Who is not happy?Plenty of organisations and people are not happy with the decision to host the event in Saudi Arabia - a nation with many human rights issues. The deal was only signed after Saudi Arabia agreed women would be able to attend the games. Human rights organisation Amnesty International has highlighted the country's "abysmal" human rights record. Heavy restrictions on freedom of expression and women's rights have been raised, as has the use of the death penalty for offences not recognised as crimes under international law.
I'm sure it is to do with focus," Balague added. For a long time he has pushed to try and get into Real Madrid. He even changed his agent. We spoke to him last season and he seems still very engaged in trying to improve. He is 31 now, he was 30 last year, and he was talking about still working hard and things he would like to react to better. He reacted badly to mistakes in the past, but they do not mean anything to him now, and they are just obstacles to beat.

Sheffield United were the overwhelming bookies' favourites to suffer immediate relegation to the Championship following their impressive promotion, but under Wilder they have defied expectations to instead find themselves fifth in the table. The job Wilder has done is even more impressive when you consider the limited budget he has at the Blades and how he has managed to turn players who rarely excelled in the Football League into very solid Premier League performers.
Newcastle’s two wins this season came in a row, with wins over Western United and Western Sydney. These were also the only two games where the side kept clean sheets, further highlighting their defensive frailties. They’ve scored enough goals, an average of just over one per game but they find themselves a point behind 10th placed Central Coast Mariners and another loss could see the side cut adrift at the bottom.
Mikel Arteta hopes he can convince Arsenal's "most important player" Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to stay at the club after he scored twice to help the Gunners to a 3-2 win over Everton. Aubameyang now has 19 goals this season and 60 in 95 games for the London club. It has been reported that he wants to play in the Champions League next season and has been linked with a move. Before I took over I had my questions about him but he has shown his commitment," said Arteta.
For Chelsea, Tammy Abraham could return this weekend. However, Brazilian winger Willian may be worth looking at. He was fantastic against Spurs in the return fixture, scoring twice, and they have games against Bournemouth, Everton and Aston Villa coming up. How do I replace Son? Son had scored four goals in his past three gamesAfter scoring twice against Aston Villa last weekend, fantasy managers up and down the country were hoping South Korea international Son was about to hit a rich vein of form.
Similarly, there is a limited amount of time to complete the season before Euro 2020 kick in, if it does, and for European games to be played. It is not even obvious when next season could start, so while a further postponement already seems inevitable, cancellation cannot be ruled out. Are plans in place to cancel the season entirely? No.
Both sides qualified for Euro 2020 after topping their respective groups, with Italy qualifying with a perfect record of 10 wins in 10 games. The fixture will be played exactly two years to the day since they last played out a 1-1 draw at the same venue. England also host Denmark, whom they last played in March 2014, four days later at Wembley.
He was always pushing for the lads and had the best interests of the club at heart. People were working hard every day and they went up to three months without getting any money. He wanted the best for everyone. Within a week of Wilder's outburst a deal was done and Northampton proceeded to dominate the division, losing just one of their last 26 league games. The celebrations had barely died down when an offer arrived from his boyhood club Sheffield United, which he simply couldn't refuse.
The Championship is the third English competition to resume in four days, following the restart of the Premier League on Wednesday and the League Two play-off semi-finals 24 hours later. Like the Premier League, the intention is for the Championship to be played to its full conclusion. League Two and League One, the other two competitions that make up the English Football League, have instead come back to decide only the final promotion spots via the play-offs after both campaigns were curtailed and decided on an average points-per-game system.

At home in the first league since the restart the defense of Astra looked like a pure joke as they somehow managed to avoid conceding a goal in the first 40 minutes of the game before Gaz Metan received a red card and even in 10 men they had scoring chances hitting the crossbar once early in the second half but the last 30 minutes they really settled for the draw and got it without much problems as Astra simply did not have what it takes to break their defense.
Is this what we really asked for when VAR was introduced? Why are the FA asking for outrage? If the naked eye cannot see it, then surely it cannot be offside? Do we really want our beautiful game resorting to this? MAN OF THE MATCH Christian Eriksen. The Dane may well be on his way in January, but he showed he still has the ability to score spectacular goals, and got his stuttering team going in the second half with some typically incisive passing.
With Tottenham Hotspur's Harry Kane (hamstring tendon) and Marcus Rashford (back stress fracture) out for lengthy periods, there has been talk of England manager Gareth Southgate trying to persuade the Premier League's leading scorer to rethink his decision to turn his back on international football.
Jesus, who had an early effort ruled offside, eased City's nerves with a beautiful curling shot into the far corner in the 24th minute after a swift exchange of passes ending with David Silva threading the ball to the Brazilian. Portuguese midfielder Bernardo Silva created the second for Jesus five minutes after the break with a cross to the back post which the striker, who had not scored in his previous 10 games for club and country, met with a clinical finish.
Maybe he could have kept the flag down and checked later. Ultimately it was the correct decision. The referee will not blow the whistle and he has done that. Usually it is clear and obvious for the linesman to put his flag up but let's remind everyone it was the second goal, which wasn't important anyway. Carroll's long wait ends - the statsNewcastle have won three of their last five Premier League games (D1 L1), as many as they had in their previous 13 combined before this (W3 D4 L6).
Over the last few weeks Strasbourg have been the best team in Europe for the neutral to watch. Goals have been on tap with 23 being scored in their last five games, 13 of which were netted by the Alsatians. They continued that trend last week as they beat Toulouse 4-2 making it their third time they've scored four goals in their last five matches. Thierry Laurey really can get them playing some extremely fun football but their defence usually suffers as a result of this with ten goals conceded in their last five matches, eight of them coming against teams currently in the bottom half.
Betis also secured wins over Barca, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid during his two-year tenure, and he left the club by mutual consent in the summer. Barcelona are top of La Liga on goal difference and have won four of the last five league titles. I thank Ernesto Valverde for leaving me with a side that is top of the league," he said. My objective is to win everything! Everything you can win, this club has no other path to follow.
Kilmarnock stuck to the compact 4-4-2 that brought them so much success under Steve Clarke last term, and did well to frustrate Rangers, while increasingly growing into the game in the second half. Pre-match Kilmarnock boss Alex Dyer called for a "big night" from Brophy and his striker delivered in a typical display of relentless energy as he and his team-mates put in the type of performance that became routine against the Old Firm with Clarke in charge.
Nottingham have six wins in the last 10 matches. Charlton have two wins in 19 Championship matches. Seven of the last eight meetings between the two have produced under 2.5 goals. Charlton have no win in 12 straight away matches. Nottingham have no loss in the last five Championship home matches. Nottingham Forest shocked Leeds United 2-0 in one of the Round 31 matches and will be keen to serve the same to Charlton Athletic, who tour The City Ground on Tuesday.

There's still that fear of getting injured again and what that would look like for me. Ultimately, the things you take for granted in terms of being a footballer, being able to run, being around your team on a regular basis, gamedays, those are the things I don't take for granted anymore because they can be taken away in an instant.

Manchester United fans, meanwhile, have had to endure another spell plagued by injuries and poor form this season. Their recent wins over Norwich and Brighton have boosted confidence a little, but a tally of just 16 points from 12 games illustrates just how far off the pace they have been this term.
