Inter look certain to make it into the last sixteen of the Europa League. They have a healthy 2-0 lead from the first leg and are strong at home. Their opponents did well to hold Inter for 71 minutes in the first leg but they will find this trip to Italy tougher. They need to score at least twice to have any chance of progressing, so will have to come at Inter. That is going to leave some gaps at the back. Go for Inter to win this match and be ahead at half and full time.

However, both sides are heading back to the second tier as things stand, with the pair placed 19th and 20th respectively. They’re heading for relegation, but will their latest top flight clash play out like the others? SPAL are hoping for a home win, with Brescia on a terrible run of form.
That is why news of a potential £340m takeover featuring Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund has been greeted on the streets of Tyneside with excitement rather than any moral outcry. Newcastle fans have have been promised a new dawn many times before, so they are sceptical about whether it might even happen. But instead of worrying about a country's human rights record, which Amnesty International calls "appalling", many of them see it as a chance to rid the club of Ashley, who has been in charge for 13 years.
Ramsdale does well to not only save but take the ball cleanly. BAD NEWS. Ake makes an excellent sliding tackle to deny Salah a chance, but he looks to have pulled his hamstring in the process and cannot continue. GOAL! Bournemouth 0-1 Liverpool (Oxlade-Chamberlain). Liverpool lead and they made it look simple! Henderson sprays a long ball over the top, Oxlande-Chamberlain is there to meet it on the volley and nudges the ball past Ramsdale, who really should have come out sooner.

Newspapers Marca and AS said Carrasco, who scored for Atletico in the 2016 Champions League final against Real Madrid, has been drafted in by Diego Simeone's side after their bid to land Edinson Cavani from Paris St Germain fell through. Carrasco, 26, moved to Chinese Super League club Dalian Yifang in February 2018 and has not played a competitive game since the championship finished on Dec.
With reasons to oppose both teams for the win and double chance odds too short to warrant serious investment, there's no hiding from the notion that this is a pretty nasty fixture from a betting perspective to kick-off the La Liga weekend.
Standing between him and his eighth title is Dominic Thiem who is in his first Grand Slam final away from Paris. Djokovic has made a dominant start to the new year. He remained unbeaten in the ATP Cup as he led Serbia to victory. He dropped a set in the first round in this tournament but since then has won every set played.
In America it's different to back home," he says. Because the country is so big, and there's no relegation or promotion, the only way you stay in one place is if you're average. What I can say now to any person at a club is, I've walked a mile in their shoes. I've been a player, an academy coach, an assistant coach in MLS, I've a head coach, a general manager, a technical director at a youth programme.
Their best goalscorer is forward Saba Lobjanidze from Georgia, who is playing in a great form with 6 goals and two dished assists. They had a slower start, but now, their story is really different.

Their fantastic streak with only 2 losses in 13 games proved that they can play consistently good,

But we played much quicker, made the right decisions and it was a good game in the second half. We made a few changes, maybe too many but what can you do? We didn't find the right tools in the first half but it was a very intensive rebuild at half-time.
Lyon are unbeaten in five matches. PSG have scored 19 goals in the last five matches. PSG have lost three of their last five visits to Lyon. Lyon are unbeaten in nine home matches.

Bundesliga 1. We have a Match where team Freiburg will play at home with team Wolfsburg. My bet will be on guests how draw no bet. Hosts takes 6 place in rankings. They did 2 draw games and defeat at last 3 matches played. Guests did 2 wins and defeat ( at last match with Werder Bremen ) at last 3 matches played. As I wrote the last defeat with Werder was very unsuccessful for Wolfsburg. I hope that before our match they will prepare very carefully. Maybe we will see a draw game between our teams. But more advantages for guests .
The 1-1 draw at the first leg brought many advantages to Palestine when they had 90 minutes at home. While Palestino cannot play at home to Cisterna, they play at Carlos de Apoquindo in Santiago. In the play-off round, Palestino defeated Talleres (Argentina) 2-1 at home to gain access to the group stage. 3 home games in the group stage last season, Palestino beat Alianza Lima, the rest lost to International and River Plate too strong. Currently, Palestino is also very good at home when unbeaten 5 matches, winning the last 3 matches but having 3/5 conceded. This shows that the ability of the host to win a victory in 90 minutes is still possible.

Mourinho cannot call in Kane or Son to change things - and I don't see him suddenly bringing in teenage striker Troy Parrot up front. Jose can't do that after saying he wasn't ready after he missed a penalty against Norwich. So, he is going to have to ask the same lads who played Leipzig to get him something out of the United game. He could tinker with a few things at the back but, realistically, has he got anyone to bring in who will make an overall impact on the way they are going to play? No.
It's not my call. It's for the chief executive and the owner. Portuguese midfielder Bruno Fernandes completed his long-awaited switch to United on Thursday, and Solskjaer said the player was fit enough to be available for Saturday's league match against Wolverhampton Wanderers. I don't know how much he'll be involved, but he'll be in the squad," the Norwegian coach added.

Gianluigi Donnarumma - Atalanta-Milan - Serie A 2019/2020 - Getty ImagesGetty Images Juventus If you look within Serie A then Juventus jump out as the obvious destination. They have been following the keeper for a while and they clearly see him as a worthy heir to Gianluigi Buffon. It is true that Wojciech Szczesny is under contract until 2024 but it is equally true that the Polish international (as reliable as he has been) is nine years older than Donnarumma and if a good offer comes in he could leave.
STOCKHOLM, Nov 29 (Reuters) - Unai Emery's sacking as Arsenal coach means Freddie Ljungberg takes over on an interim basis at the club where he made his name and the former midfielder will be relishing the chance show fans what he can do.

The only element of luck that now exists in the game is if VAR sees something that everyone else misses. Did you know? Antonio produced three key passes and a team-high four crosses from open play against Southampton. Lucas Moura: You can't score a goal like that and not get in my team of the week. We all know Lucas Moura can strike the ball but this really was a beauty. What I adore about Moura is his ability to dance past players.

He is a very important player in this moment. What will happen in the future, we will see," said Klopp. But for him, wherever it is - here or somewhere else - the only important thing is that he can show he is 100% fit. He had some injury problems - completely done; trained, body is super fit, mind in a perfect place, enjoys the time here in the moment. You can see that in each second of training and when he plays, very influential.
They were fortunate not to go behind early in the game as Marc-Andre ter Stegen saved a penalty from Maxi Gomez but Valencia went ahead after the interval through a Jordi Alba own goal and sealed victory with a late strike from Uruguayan Gomez.

Liverpool have qualified for the European Cup or Champions League on 24 occasionsPat Nevin: I definitely don't like the thought of leagues not being finished, unless of course this goes on for six months. And then you are in a different reality altogether, and you may have to consider that it cannot be finished. As time goes by, it gets more complicated because players' contracts will have run out.
I would normally back the away win without a problem here but there are a couple of things that make me want to back the draw here as first of all I did bet on QPR U23 to win their last away game at Crystal Palace U23 and I was on my way to winning that bet with QPR having the lead 2-0 by half-time found themselves 2-2 drawn in the second half but did make it 3-2 once more taking the lead just that it ended 3-3 so feel safer taking the draw cover this time.
If Chelsea are serious about a top-four place they need to get a top-class goalkeeper. They should take a serious look at Newcastle's Martin Dubravka. Did you know? Rudiger became the first Chelsea centre-back to score twice in a Premier League match since John Terry against Fulham in April 2013. Yerry Mina: It's rather unusual to pick a defender for scoring goals rather than his team coming away with a clean sheet.
Alexander SørlothGetty Images Rekdal is less certain. He went to the Premier League and did not do so well, then it was a loan to Gent and now on a two-year loan to Trabzonspor. Then he has to get Crystal Palace back, or he has to go to Spain, Italy, Germany. It may well be that he should change club to get to a higher level.
And if I see Zaha trying to do the twist in order to use his right foot to score a goal I will scream. Swing the left! Did you know? Ayew has now scored nine Premier League goals for Crystal Palace, more than he did at either Aston Villa (seven) or Swansea (eight). Martial: The control was superb but the shot was weak and lacked direction - but you saw his early intention and his desire. Anthony Martial looked 'in the mood' from the moment the game started.
Chelsea-bound striker Tim Werner scored with his final touch in a RB Leipzig shirt to ensure he leaves the German club as their all-time top scorer.

That took his overall tally for the club to 95 goals in 159 games. The win saw RB Leipzig finish third in the league, behind Borussia Dortmund and champions Bayern Munich.
The new format for this year's competition means that 'festival of football' feeling will be spread across 12 countries. But for England fans there is the added bonus that Wembley will host more games than any other stadium in any other country. Both the semi-finals and final will take place in London, as well as three group games and a last-16 match. With a total of seven matches taking place at Wembley it could well rekindle the spirit of Euro 1996.
Argyle may be well placed in terms of the goalscoring table, but it is noticeable that when they are on the road they tend to keep things tight and the fact that they have kept a clean sheet in around a third of their away league matches this term is certainly a positive they can take into this weekend’s fixture.
