Diego Martinez' side lost three on the spin prior to Matchday 14 against Getafe (3-1), Real Sociedad (1-2) and Valencia (2-0) and they head to San Mames this Sunday on the back of three straight away defeats.
STOCKHOLM, March 17 (Reuters) - Finland's soccer players were looking forward to competing at the finals of a major tournament for the first time ever in June, but captain Tim Sparv said it was right to postpone the Euro 2020 Championship to protect fans from the coronavirus. The towering 33-year-old, who plays for FC Midtjylland in Denmark, was out training by himself when the news broke via the Norwegian FA that the tournament was to be postponed by a year.
However, Lineker - who is donating two months of his BBC salary to the British Red Cross - criticised his former club Tottenham for furloughing staff. People do focus on footballers, they are an easy target," he told BBC Radio 4's World at One. There are lots of other people in society who earn huge money - billionaires, CEOs on huge money - I hope it’s not just footballers who are targeted. Football will, and should, do something.
Saints added that "all activity at Staplewood Campus, St Mary's Stadium and our other sites continue to be suspended except for essential activities" due to the coronavirus, with the situation to be reviewed at the end of April. Everyone at the club remains fully committed to the community we value so highly in Southampton.
Boufal, who joined from Lille in 2016, has played in 10 of Southampton's 13 league games this season. Hasenhuttl said midfielder Stuart Armstrong was ruled out with a hamstring problem he suffered against Arsenal five days ago. He is not able to play at the weekend. Maybe two weeks I think he is out and then after the Newcastle game maybe again an option," said the manager.
Union Berlin looked poor before the league was postponed with a 1-1-3 record in the last 5 matches conceding 12 goals. However, they did score in each of the 5 matches and in the 3 Bundesliga home matches after the winter break they scored 2 goals in each match.
Does he need someone next to him who has been a manager themselves to sit with him and help him? I would say that maybe he does. It doesn’t have to be big names that come through the door in January to fix it. Apart from anything else, how many big-name players want to come to Manchester United at the present moment? I don't believe that's the answer.
Eibar will be meeting with the away team Real sociedad and this game looking at it very well we have e given the away team to win this game or they will give us a draw at full-time as the away team looking at the last meetings of this two teams the away team have won many games as compared to home team and so this makes us to be very sure with this prediction
TOTTENHAM CHANCE! It should be all square. Lo Celso somehow guides wide on the stretch from Aurier's deliciously whipped cross to the far post. KEY STATS Liverpool have clocked up their joint-best scoring streak from the start of a top-flight season in the club's history, with the Reds also netting in their first 21 games in the 1933-34 season.
Southampton substitute Michael Obafemi's 96th-minute equaliser prevented Manchester United from jumping up to third place and leaves their Champions League qualification still in the balance. The Saints started off well at Old Trafford and went ahead through Stuart Armstrong's 12th-minute strike, following Paul Pogba's mistake. But United responded immediately - Marcus Rashford slotting home the equaliser before Anthony Martial fired a superb second three minutes later.
When could it be introduced?In October, a government-commissioned report said more evidence was required before safe standing could be adopted. The means it will not be trialled in England's top two leagues this season, despite the report suggesting controlled tests would have value. The Sports Ground Safety Authority will look into how safe standing is implemented at British and European clubs, and how persistent standing is managed elsewhere.

It was a weird atmosphere and the boys were so focused and created their own atmosphere and I think the camaraderie and the team spirit was there to see," Solskjaer told BT Sport. It's not to recommend (football behind closed doors) but I have to praise the boys because they did fantastic. Olympiakos, who knocked out Arsenal in the previous round, had centre back Ruben Semedo sent off in the 28th minute for a last-man foul but Youssef El Arabi fired them ahead in the 54th with a close-range finish.

De Bruyne is my pick but that's pure football. Jermaine Jenas: Kevin de Bruyne (9)De Bruyne has been head and shoulders above any other player in the league, with the consistency of his performances, how dangerous he is and how he dictates games with his quality. He does things that just amaze me, every time I watch him. He has still got the ability to go and win the Champions League for City this season and when he plays like he did at the Bernabeu, they have every chance.
Promoted Brescia have seven points. Brescia left Mario Balotelli on the bench after coach Fabio Grosso said the maverick striker had not put in enough effort in training during the week. Even so, they almost took a first-half lead when Emanuele Ndoj’s shot was pushed away by Roma goalkeeper Pau Lopez and Alfredo Donnarumma went close after being allowed a free header at a corner.
The battle for a top-four finish moves to Stamford Bridge on Saturday as Chelsea and Tottenham face each other in the Premier League. Frank Lampard's Blues are just one point ahead of Jose Mourinho's fifth-placed Spurs in the hunt for a spot in the Champions League. Both sides have been affected by injuries to key players this season but who do you think would make it into a combined Chelsea-Tottenham XI if everyone was fit? Would Reece James get the nod over Serge Aurier? Maybe new-boy Steven Bergwijn makes the cut instead of Willian? It's up to you.
Obviously Giroud offers a different style to the Austrian forward, but he will look at Moyes' previous work at West Ham and believe that he can go there and score enough goals to keep his place in the France national team ahead of this summer's European Championships. The French forward just needs to leave Chelsea and start playing first-team football again if he wants to play a major role in Les Bleus' potential road to Wembley.

Tuchel misjudged it, instead of letting Mbappe sulk on the bench, he tried to have a word and that was a bad idea. From Mbappe sulking it became a confrontation for up to a minute in front of the whole world. Mbappe and Tuchel with hands over the mouth having a heated exchange. At the meeting on Sunday morning, Mbappe did not apologise. He admitted he overreacted but didn't apologise. He feels like Tuchel is treating him like an under-19 player and Tuchel is saying I have a squad to manage, whether you are happy or not, I don't care.

I really wanted to take the over 3.5 goals bet here in this one at odds of 3.00 of course it was the risk that there would be just 3 goals scored in this one as for example last season also here in this second league level when these two teams met the game ended in a 2-1 win for the hosts but in their last two games in the league they drew both those games with 2-2 in the end so games with over 3.5 goals scored in them.
I am goal with goal Market because of the odds Atalanta have been given to beat Parma. Looking on head to head has you can see Atalanta has been dominating home and away though you should also put in mind that Parma has also been doing pretty good out of the six games played they are unbeaten in five and remember winning breeds confidence and that can make the Swiss in a draw.
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.
View more on twitterHere’s what they told us… Can he do it on a cold rainy night in Stoke? For anyone who’s ever wanted to see Pep test his mettle without the usual budget, this could be their chance. Meanwhile, in an alternate universe, Southampton are no longer a feeder-club for Liverpool and may be poaching some of the Reds’ youngest prospects. Rangers dominate Europe In a world that exists exclusively in one man’s household, Rangers have not only eclipsed Celtic’s European record (the Hoops won the European Cup in 1967), but Scotland are World Cup contenders.

It came in the 88th minute, when Bjorn Engels’ header was shovelled onto the post by Claudio Bravo. It was a noble defeat for Villa, though that will be little consolation in the immediate aftermath of the game. For City and Guardiola, it was yet another successful trip to Wembley. TALKING POINT City score from the corner that wasn’t VAR was being used in the Carabao Cup final, which made it harder for Villa to accept the mistake that led to City’s second goal from Rodri.
Lida had issue on the begin, and they were even deducted points, because of financial problem with the Federation. However, this team is still among the top part in the league, and they showed their quality in previous 3:0 victory against Slonim at the home ground.
Darmstadt was in great form before the break but still they are great team and despite 8 points away I think they are legit contenders for the second or third spot on the table and in this game I expect from them to win or at least not to lose because on the other hand Karlsruher is one of the worst teams in the league with just 24 points they are in relegation zone and I expect from them to stay there to the end of the season and who wants to risk could take 2.7 odd on the Darmstadt to win
In January, they were interested in Valencia forward Rodrigo - but would not pay the fee of almost £50m the club wanted - as well as RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner and Arsenal's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. They made some mistakes in planning," said European football expert Mina Rzouki on BBC Radio 5 Live. They sold Perez and Ruiz. They knew Suarez's injury would take long. Why can they change their bad management and Leganes can do nothing?"Barca even have two senior international forwards in the B team, which plays in Spain's third tier.
Goztepe has been very good at home winning 60% of their last ten matches at home. While Besiktas has been so poor this season and even very worse when playing away from home having lost their last 3 away matches on the bounce. If goztepe don't come in this match very confident I see them winning against a very poor Besiktas I have seen in recent years. They are having their worst season so far and I don't see that changing today. They lost in the mid week during a cup game they were expected to win. Home win for sure
Ultimately, there's only one side that come into this game with any sort of momentum behind them and that's Denizlispor. They've adapted to life in the top flight well since promotion and although Alanayspor have shown they can be a force in the division, their current form does not make for good reading.
Liverpool have survived. Surely, Jurgen thinks, this will be the end of the matter. Wrong. OK, so apparently Klopp watched via an official feed, and not a questionable streaming website laden with ‘local girls looking for fun in your area’. But the facts here are irrelevant. The fact Liverpool won the game? Irrelevant.

Gorodeya are strugglng for form and goals but this is a decent chance to get some points. Neman Grodno aren't that bad a side but their away form is letting them down with just one point and one goal. That's compared to having the fourth best home record in the Belarus Premier League. With Gorodeya having onlly scored two home league goals (seven goals in total in four at home), the suggested bet here is on under 2.5 goals being scored.
