It is early March and the Championship is most certainly entering its "business end", with a potentially pivotal weekend on the way for teams at the bottom of the pile. Six of the current bottom seven clubs face each other on Saturday and the congested nature of the bottom third means plenty of twists and turns could occur before 2 May. After two "big-hitters" dropped down to League One in the past two seasons in the shape of Sunderland and Ipswich Town, could another club with a rich history of top-flight achievements follow them? How does the table look? With each club having 10 games left to play, Luton Town, Barnsley and Middlesbrough occupy the relegation spaces, but that situation could be very different come Saturday once the results are in from these three key fixtures:Charlton Athletic v MiddlesbroughStoke City v Hull CityWigan Athletic v Luton TownTo add to the intrigue, those games could also have a big impact on the shape of the table just above.
Olympic champion Adam Peaty will take part in a virtual bike race tomorrow to raise money for the NHS. A 100km race on Zwift, with boxer Callum Johnson also taking part. Contract extension for Muller Some actual non-coronavirus related football news from Germany, where Thomas Muller has signed a contract extension at Bayern Munich until 2023! 10:13 - Rangers players, staff defer wages Rangers manager Steven Gerrard says the decision by the club's players, directors and staff to defer wages by three months during the COVID-19 pandemic was a "no-brainer".
The Blues have faltered at the Bridge in recent weeks, losing to three sides near the relegation zone, and were struggling to break down a well-organised Burnley in the opening 25 minutes until Matt Lowton's reckless sliding tackle on Willian enabled Jorginho to open the scoring from the penalty spot. Visiting keeper Nick Pope then allowed Tammy Abraham's close-range header to evade his grasp and find the net to give the Blues a grip on the game before they had even got out of second gear.
Footballers will only need “a couple of weeks of proper training” to be able to return to action, says Everton defender Michael Keane. Professional football in England has been put on hold until 30 April amid the coronavirus crisis, but Premier League clubs will hold talks on 3 April to discuss when games could be staged. It's important we continue to work hard and build up because we don't know when we'll be back in – the Premier League could start again in a month or longer,” Keane, 27, told Talksport.
Napoli held their nerve to claim a first major trophy in six seasons by beating Juventus in a penalty shootout in the Coppa Italia final. Arkadiusz Milik scored the winning spot-kick after Paulo Dybala had seen his first for Juve saved, before team-mate Danilo blazed the second over. This followed a hard-fought 0-0 over 90 minutes of few chances, played behind closed doors at the Stadio Olimpico. It gives Napoli boss Gennaro Gattuso his first major trophy as a manager.

Lille are on the winning streak while playing at home. Winning their previous 4 home fixtures. They have also been performing very good against big teams when they play at home. PSG as usual are winning almost every game they play in league one. I think the oddsmakers are not good here. Lille is a very good team at home and have also strengthened during that transfer window. They beat psg by 5 goals in their previous fixture. I think they are going to frustrate psg here. And hit them on counters. If there is an antidote for psg in this league. Then it's lille
Napoli's website has given only minimal details on training sessions and ticketing information for supporters but no quotes from the squad, meaning the only news has come from leaks to the media. The muted celebrations which followed Hirving Lozano's goal against Milan on Saturday, added to a generally lacklustre display, suggested that morale is still at a low.
The influential midfielder limped off early in the first half and the Reds never got a foothold on the game in midfield following his departure. Asked about the severity of Fabinho's injury, Klopp said: "I don't know, he has pain and that is not good. He couldn't continue. I don't want to say what I expect because I hope it is not that serious. Former Liverpool defender and BBC pundit Mark Lawrenson said an extended absence for Fabinho over this coming period could be a big blow for the Reds.

In my days as a trader, you would try to hedge your trades to minimise losses. So if Wolves win, I'd obviously pick up 10 points. But if West Ham draw or win, then I'll be personally happy as my club pick up points. I hedged my bets so I'm happy either way. It is win-win, as they say. Liverpool v Everton (20:15 GMT)Everton boss Marco Silva's future is still in doubt, but I thought his side were much better against Leicester on Sunday, despite their late defeat.
Piracy claims surrounding the proposed takeover of Newcastle United should be scrutinised by government, according to a member of the Digital, Cultural, Media and Sport Committee. The £300m deal - backed by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund - is being checked by the Premier League under its owners' and directors' test. But the Arab state's alleged role in pirate network beoutQ showing Premier League and other sports illegally has led to demands for further investigation.
AnalysisBBC Sport's Simon StoneThere are plenty of Manchester United fans who agree with Gary Neville - and a number of people on Twitter have adopted anti-Woodward and anti-Glazer handles to underline their feelings. At their last home league game, the 4-0 win over Norwich on 11 January, songs were sung against the owners and the man responsible for running Manchester United. This will hurt Woodward just as United's current plight bothers him.
Jordan is an attacking threat there too - he has the ability to put some really good cballs into the box and, even from deep, his ability to run off the ball into attacking areas is really crucial for Liverpool as well. On the defensive side of things, his speed makes him particularly effective at the press but he is also is great at spotting danger, is very disciplined positionally and is switched on so he tracks runners.
Still, Liverpool shouldn’t be over confident coming into this game. Their first team squad will be undeniably weary after their long trip and subsequent victory in the Club World Cup, and their performances away from home this season haven’t been spectacular.
Smith fumed afterwards at a "very, very harsh" decision that killed the game. Vardy only had seven touches of the ball - but two of them were goals. His second arrived after his attempted cross had come back to him, allowing him to rifle past Reina at his near post. That was a particularly impressive goal, starting with defender Jonny Evans winning the ball outside his own box before he played it forward to Barnes, who found Vardy.
To be honest, I still think we are a tournament or two away from qualifying," Neil said. We are starting to build a really good young team, and I have a lot of hope for the future. There needs to be some belief in Scottish football and I think it is just starting to grow, when for so long it hasn't been there at all. It comes from a spirit within the squad and having champions in the team like Liverpool's Andy Robertson is great.

Although 14th place is not the terrain to set up a picnic on, the recent signing of Lucas Tousart was a sign of their ambitions. The €25 million record signing will spend the rest of the season with Lyon before moving in the summer. A defensive midfielder who has been compared to Javi Martinez, Hertha could do with a player of his quality to bolster their midfield against Schalke.
The exact score earns 40 points. LAWRO'S PREDICTIONSTUESDAY Chelsea v Norwich (20:15 BST)Chelsea manager Frank Lampard will expect a reaction from his team after their defeat by Sheffield United, and I think he will get one. I wouldn't be surprised if Norwich are quite competitive now they are relegated, because the pressure is off them now. But I still expect the Blues to win, because they have got a point to prove.

Paris St-Germain midfielder Ander Herrera is among 36 players who have been cleared of fixing a match between Levante and Real Zaragoza in 2011. Zaragoza won the game but were accused of paying Levante players 965,000 euros (£812,851) to lose so they could avoid relegation in the 2010-11 season. Leganes coach Javier Aguirre and ex-Atletico Madrid captain Gabi Fernandez were also among those who stood trial.
In this situation, the scenarios we are considering are all short term,” he said. If we can’t sort out the short-term then, unfortunately, we aren’t going to have time to sort out anything more long-term. We aren’t allowing that to enter our minds. Tebas also confirmed that La Liga had sent coronavirus test kits to all of its clubs so players can be tested.
You cannot lose nine Premier League matches and expect to finish ahead of Liverpool. City will come back hurt next season - but must have a better defence. Pre-season prediction: 1stWhat I said in August: "Kompany's presence will be hugely difficult to replace on and off the pitch but class in all parts of the pitch will make it a Premier League treble. Manchester United - 3rdInspired by the January signing of Bruno Fernandes, United did superbly to reel in Leicester City and ensure manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer achieved what should be the minimum expectation of top four.
This was arguably the biggest test of Arteta's fledgling Gunners tenure so far. An Everton side, who have made their own, marked improvement with Carlo Ancelotti, had lost just once under the Italian in the Premier League prior to this clash at Emirates Stadium. That came at champions, Manchester City, and given the Toffees are a clear rival for a top four/five spot, this was a big result for the Gunners and further proof that Arteta is a man who can make managerial waves.
In the league of reservists they will play the match of Vitebsk against Dynamo Brest, and until my lights are turned off due to a hurricane wind I will try to manage to write a forecast for this and the next matches of today, and you support me so that the forecast comes and the lights do not turn off! Vitebsk and Dynamo Brest have passed so far, they have few points, but this is what I dear friends noticed in this pair, first of all, Vitebsk has one point more, but this is still the result, in one of the matches Vitebsk was able to score, and Dynamo Brest lost such a match, and most importantly, Vitebsk played almost the entire game away, and Dynamo was at home, so Vitebsk was more difficult, but now they are home and they are definitely favorites in this pair!
The nearest United came to scoring was in the final minute of stoppage time when substitute Diogo Dalot headed Aaron Wan-Bissaka's cross narrowly wide, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men have now taken just four points from five games. Wolves worked hard but, despite introducing their debutant, Daniel Podence, near the end, also lacked a killer touch in front of goal. Nuno Espirito Santo's men have now won once in six games since their memorable comeback triumph against Manchester City on 27 December and, with 13 games of the campaign remaining, are, like United, six points off a Champions League place and behind Sheffield United.
They, just like the usually inpatient Santiago Bernabeu faithful, recognise what the Brazilian brings. He is a live wire. It’s true that Vinicius remains somewhat unpolished. While Ansu Fati and even Rodrygo, two teenage peers who have also made a breakthrough over the past couple seasons, are more refined in their play, maybe even closer to being the final article, Vinicius is still a work-in-progress.
Team of the decade - tick. The most iconic moment in English football between 2010 and 2019 - tick. The key stats from 2010-2019 - tick. Now it's time to pick your iconic player of the decade in England. We're not necessarily looking for the best player, but the individual who has had the biggest impact on the Premier League and club cup competitions over the decade. With the help of BBC Sport journalists - including chief football writer Phil McNulty, BBC Radio 5 Live football reporter Ian Dennis and Match of the Day commentator Guy Mowbray - we've created a shortlist of 15, but it was a tough decision and players such as Kevin de Bruyne, Luis Suarez, and Philippe Coutinho among those missing out.
They have not conceded more than a goal in a game in their last 11 away matches, keeping six clean sheets in the process. Real Madrid have three straight wins in Super Cup matches and have lost just one in the last six. They have scored two or more goals in 10 of 13 Super Cup matches. They lost to Atletico in the Super Cup in 2014’ their 1-0 fall then, was only the second time they have failed to score in the competition.
David Moyes’ chances of being re-appointed at the club have been improved after Carlo Ancelotti took over at Everton. Paper Round’s view: Moyes has shown an aptitude for reinvigorating the West Ham squad after a period of poor performance, but they are a club stuck for an identity. If they go for Moyes then they admit that they are better suited to British pragmatism while turning down the chance to embrace being a premier European side in the capital of England.
What about players returning to training?A number of clubs reopened their training grounds for individual training last week.

Amstetten against GAK here, meeting of the Erste Liga of Austrian football that is played today afternoon at 19:10. Amstetten favored for the victory of the match comes from a 2-2 away draw against the same opponents in a match played in fields reversed a week ago; both teams have the same technical potential and it is possible that another draw will occur here; the Amstetten however does not play at all badly for being a team of low rankings -I got to see some of his matches and seems to be a pretty well organized team despite having no major player- so let's try 1 Ah-0.25 and Good Luck! ;-)
It’s his creativity that has often broken the deadlock, his wicked right boot forcing defenders to face their goal again and again. Manager of Liverpool Jurgen Klopp with Virgil van Dijk of Liverpool at the end of the Premier League match between Leicester City and Liverpool FC at King Power Stadium on December 26, 2019 in Leicester, United KingdomGetty Images Virgil van Dijk is the correct pick.
honved is team from the middle of the table and on first look on them you could see that they are not team which likes or knows to defend a lot,especially not at home with 5 wins 6 defeats and just 3 draws and especially now when they have nothing to lose or win they are not going to defend, so I expect from them to score a goal but on the other side videoton is better team then them and videoton is still in title race so I surely expect from visitors to score a goal too in this game
