The Bavarians have won 10 of their last 11 Bundesliga matches and stand four points clear at the top. WINNING COLOGNE From relegation candidate to European hopeful, Cologne have turned their season around under coach Markus Gisdol. Cologne's 2-1 win at Paderborn was their third in a row. In 10th place on 32 points, Cologne can climb even higher with a win over Borussia Moenchegladbach in a re-scheduled game on Wednesday.
The Gunners then took the lead through Aubameyang's composed finish, but came unstuck deep into first-half stoppage time when they again failed to completely deal with a right-wing set piece. Richarlison eventually scrambled home to ensure Carlo Ancelotti's men went in at the break all square.

On August 31st 2014 Liverpool travelled to North London to face Tottenham Hotspur. The Warm-Up: Kaneocalpyse Now, as Messi slams 'childish' Barcelona Transfer window LIVE - Inter ready to make bid as Eriksen arrives in Milan for talks It was a hotly anticipated battle; it was last year’s runners-up, who lost the title in such heart-breaking fashion, up against one of the pretenders, riding high after winning their opening two games of the season under new manager Mauricio Pochettino without conceding a goal.
Paper Round's view: Giroud has only started two Premier League matches this season for Chelsea - one back in August and the most recent coming in a 1-0 loss at home to West Ham in November when Tammy Abraham was injured. The World Cup winner will have to push for an exit in the January winter transfer window if he wants to keep his place as a starter in the France national team, especially ahead of this summer's European Championships.
Ferguson has steadied the ship since taking over, beating Chelsea at home and drawing at Manchester United in the league, and losing to Leicester City on penalties in the League Cup. Everton, who are now 16th in the standings, are expected to announce a new permanent manager soon, with Carlo Ancelotti widely reported to be the front-runner for the position.
The best manager I was lucky to play for. The times we had on and off the pitch were priceless. My thoughts are with Pat and the family. RIP my good friend. Never forgotten. He is survived by wife Pat, whom he married in 1958, and their three children, John, Deborah and Peter. Charlton's granddaughter, journalist Emma Wilkinson, tweeted: "Beyond sad to have to say goodbye to my beloved Grandad, Jack Charlton.
At an average age of 24 years 50 days, this was the Gunners' youngest Premier League starting XI since May 2011 (24 years 24 days against Fulham). It was the also the first time Arsenal have started with three teenagers - Gabriel Martinelli, Bukayo Saka and Emile Smith Rowe - in a league game since March 2007 against Reading. I feel like I've steadied the ship' - what the managers said Media playback is not supported on this device Everton 0-0 Arsenal: Ferguson 'can't wait' to work with Ancelotti Everton caretaker manager Duncan Ferguson: "I think a point was fair.
We feel that the Bundesliga's best defensive team, in Wolfsburg, stand a good chance of keeping the scoreline relatively low in this game. Wolfsburg have seen under 3.5 goals in 15 of their 16 Bundesliga games. They have also seen under 3.5 goals in all seven of their Bundesliga away games.
Prat have been very bad lately in the league. They have been struggling to survive with only 18 points in their name and is getting back on the track with no defeat in 3 rounds in a row. They also have won 2 of their last 5 matches. Barca II has 10 wins 8 draws and 4 defeats in their name and won 3 of their last 4 matches, so it's clear it's not going to be easy, but I play dnb 1 at home and expect Pratt to win today. They will be enough motivated and the home advantage.
We are not talking about guys in one community, we are talking about guys from all over the world who could be possibly carrying the disease. There are so many caveats. Everyone is in different situations, I have children at home, I wouldn’t want to jeopardise them, some footballers have newly born children who might be more susceptible to getting the disease. Some are living with elderly parents. It is a really difficult situation to agree on.
Ultimately, Thursday's encounter should be a great watch for the neutral and we're anticipating plenty of action at both ends. It's simply not in either side's nature to sit back and soak up pressure and with the two extremely potent in attack, goals really shouldn't be at a premium.

For us it's a catastrophe," Klopp told reporters on Friday. I couldn't respect the Africa Cup of Nations more than I do because I like the competition and watched it a lot in the past. It's a very interesting tournament. But it's an obvious problem that you play a tournament in the middle of the season, although it makes more sense for Africa to play it in our winter when the weather is better for them -- I get that.
Normally we do that. I cannot say to you 100% sure but [it is] normally something we do. Silva replaced Sam Allardyce at Goodison Park in May 2018 and has won 25 and lost 22 of his 58 games in charge. The former Hull City and Watford manager was brought in with the hope of his side playing more attractive football and was backed with almost £90m of new signings in the summer of 2018. The Toffees finished eighth last season in Silva's first campaign but, after spending more than £100m on new players in the summer, they have won just four league games this season.
Manchester City make the short journey to rivals Manchester United on Sunday. The two sides have already met three times this season with City winning in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg at Old Trafford, while United won the second leg and the Premier League game at the Etihad. Since the Premier League began in 1992, 14 players have scored three or more goals in Manchester derbies. How many of them do you think you can name? You've got five minutes.

ENFIELD, England, Dec 3 (Reuters) - Jose Mourinho aims to continue his 100% start as Tottenham Hotspur manager when he returns to Old Trafford for the first time as a coach since being sacked by Manchester United and believes he will be shown respect on Wednesday. The Portuguese won the Europa League and League Cup in two full seasons at United but was sacked midway through the last campaign with the club sixth in the Premier League.
Against a Clarets team that might be a little punch drunk after their mid-week bout with Man City, Tottenham will expect to win this weekend, though Spurs' continued fragility at the back means that a clean sheet is unlikely.
In order to be recognised as the world's oldest professional player, Bahader must play at least one more 90-minute game. Should Bahader be picked to play, a representative of Guinness World Records will attend his second match later this month to assess his claim. The current record for the oldest professional soccer player is held by Israel's Isaak Hayik, who played in goal last April for Israel's Ironi Or Yehuda, aged 73.
The home side go into this final game of the regular season a couple of points behind sixth placed Juventus Managua. The top six go into the play-offs and Chinandega have to win this match and hope that Juventus Managua lose at bottom-of-the-table Sabanas. Chinandega are in terrible form coming into this game, having lost their last three league games and conceding eight goals, while scoring just once themselves.
The hosts have got their season back on track, with a three goal haul on Boxing Day firing them to success. They’ve scored seven times across their last three matches, which has seen them go three games without a defeat. That’s a positive for manager Lee Bowyer, who saw his side make a great start in their return to the second tier.

In this match, it is difficult to choose a winner. It hurts the Brazilians in the camp of the dashboard are good! They make the game straight of course. Neman always played at home is not bad, I would even say good. Therefore, for me, it is extremely difficult to make a choice in someone’s favor, but now I have a certain flair that there will be more than 3 goals, here it’s just 4 even. But then again, the site decided not to take any chances and take 2.5 more for a nice cache too, more than. Those who are afraid can take 2 more is also quite playable. Yes, I agree, the League is quite dangerous in terms of totals, but I could not get past this. Well, at least kill, well, I can’t believe that these two wonderful teams will not be able to accumulate 3 goals. I don’t believe, so I’ll check

England Under-21 midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White is facing disciplinary action by Wolverhampton Wanderers after pictures emerged of him apparently breaking coronavirus lockdown rules. Footage was posted on Snapchat of Gibbs-White, 20, attending a party in central London with friends last week. Wolves say they are dealing with the matter internally. In March, Gibbs-White urged his 59,000 Instagram followers to stay at home and to "do our bit to support the NHS".

Fortunately, Mark Warburton's men have turned things around of late, winning each of their last two, beating both Preston and Birmingham by two goals to nil. Such results bode well ahead of a match against a Barnsley side that is struggling for wins.
sangju is slight favorite for the win in this match but that is mainly because on the other hand Gwangju started this season poorly with two defeats and they don't even scored a goal but I think that part is going to change and I Think tomorrow they will score a goal and of course I expect the same from the hosts cause they are stronger team at home then on the road and also in head to head they are scoring at home so for me very secure bet and of course I recommend it to anyone for tomorrow
Although he said it was a “lie” that he wasn’t keen on Barcelona signing Griezmann last summer, he did say he would have “loved” to see Neymar return. The fact that Barca didn’t bring Neymar back and then, with Luis Suarez injured and Griezmann struggling for form, didn’t sign a striker in January (pulling out of a deal to sign Cedric Bakambu while he was on his way from China to Spain), means it’s all on Messi again to do the heavy lifting.
Ajax top the Dutch Eredivisie by six points but they struggled for fluency against Getafe, who are third in La Liga. Erik ten Hag's side failed to register a single shot on target despite having 65% possession. It was a scrappy affair with the ball only in play for 42 minutes and 36 seconds of the game, the second-shortest amount of time in a Europa League game since 2009. There was controversy in the second half when former Sunderland and Watford defender Allan Nyom rolled around on the ground following a challenge from Ryan Babel, who was booked for the high tackle.
Now Preston need to produce to dispel the idea that they will slip out of the promotion. Hitting a bad run of form just before Christmas is a big test of Neil’s sought-after talents. However, their away record could prove to be their downfall this term. They’ve got the best home record in the division, but they lack the same consistency on the road.

Talking Point - Valencia's tentativeness and rigidity In their 4-4-2, there wasn't much scope for tactical expression and creativity, and Valencia truly paid the price for it. The full-backs hardly got forward, and yes, the wing-backs of Atalanta helped to pin them back, but it was such rigidity of the shape that forced them to play sideways iinstead of forwards, and thus not create many golden opportunities.
