Griffiths hat-trick sends Scotland message - Lennon Media playback is not supported on this device Leigh Griffiths: 'Top-class Celtic striker getting back to his best' Huge week for RangersIt wasn't pretty, but after three domestic games without a win and three players injured in the hours before the 1-0 victory at Ross County, any win will do for Rangers.

This deal was agreed before we made a clear decision on the FA's relationship with gambling companies in June 2017.
Players like De Bruyne need to be winning trophies on a regular basis - receiving awards at the Ballon d'Or, and not being dragged off on a manager's tactical whim. And certainly, not when the likes of Real Madrid and Barcelona are watching every move. Did you know? De Bruyne has been directly involved in 19 goals in the Premier League this season (seven goals and 12 assists) - only Jamie Vardy has had a hand in more (20).

After Sancho had been dropped for the Champions League game against Barcelona in November for "lacking focus" he has maintained his sparkling form when given the opportunity. Sancho scored twice as Dortmund thrashed Fortuna Dusseldorf 5-0 on Saturday. We're continuing to plan with him," said Borussia Dortmund sporting director Michael Zorc before the game.
Kopetdag failed to win in the city derby in the previous round, and they may try to return to the winning track against the bottom placed rival in the league. Balkan only won their game against Champion recently, but they did not manage to do anything after that. Team did lost almost all season matches, and their home ground is not tight for other opponents.

Currently the home team CD Lugo is showing signs of improving the game quite well; with 5 consecutive unbeaten matches with 2 wins and 3 draws. However, that also could not help them escape the dangerous group. After 31 matches, the CD Lugo ranked 20th in the rankings with 34 points. The distance of CD Lugo and the safety group is only a small point. It is true that the epidemic came at the wrong time, coming back to this match; CD Lugo is able to go home but it is very difficult to get 3 points.
Walter will be meeting with the away team Managua and this game we have given it a draw as this two teams are very good and strong teams and so in this game we can say that both of them are very strong to win this game
Training was ‘like going back to school again’Germany’s top two divisions consist of 18 teams each and most of those have played 25 games. Bayern are five points clear at the top of the Bundesliga. Any resumption will need the approval of the German government, whose response to the pandemic has involved an intense programme of consistent testing from early on. Most players have started training again, with Bayern returning to their training ground on 6 April under strict conditions, training in small groups and keeping at a distance at all times.
Six weeks ago, they were well beaten at Chelsea, conceding three unanswered goals and dropping to their lowest point of the campaign in terms of form and league position. But as Dyche and his side have repeatedly shown, they are most dangerous with their backs to the wall and a point to prove. A haul of 13 points from the past available 15 has certainly done the trick and now, instead of worrying about the prospect of trips to Reading and Hull next season, they are dreaming again of visits to Istanbul and Athens.
In terms of a correct score prediction, the lack of goals scored by the visitors on the road this season suggests a low scoring game. Whilst Bradford are pretty consistent in front of goal, they rarely score more than two goals per game and their average of 1.67 goals per game suggests that they should be pretty comfortable in this contest, which leads us to believing backing a 2-0 home win is the way to go.
Busby then starts dismantling the team to introduce players from the United youth system. We'd played a friendly game in Kilmarnock in Scotland on the Wednesday following a 1-0 win over Aston Villa but I wasn't happy, I wasn't satisfied about it and we played this match and I put a lot of these young boys in and we won 4-0. I remember the following day walking along the golf course thinking 'we won 4-0, but what was the strength of the team?'.

This is third match from Belarusian Reserve league and new duel where I will just bet on goals and enjoy in this duel, because I think it will be few streams for this match. Vitebsk Reserves is team who is playing very efficient, similar like their rival. They are in last round lost 0-4, but in match before that one, they are won 4-1. Rival is playing also very efficient, and in last two duels, they are played 2-3 and 1-2. Yes, over is ok for me and I will try that. It is very real and ok to try.

Nam Dinh has 4 losses in a row as they lost in the cup this after winning in the first round in the cup with Gia Lai 2-0 they lost the next round, and in the league their last 3 games played by them ended with them losing twice on the road with 1-0 plus a 2-1 loss at home to The Song as well and it is true their defense is really not that strong but the guests are also one of the weakest teams in the league and have even lost with no less than 5-0 away at Binh Duong their last away game in the league.
FA Cup: Manchester City v Port Vale previewCity striker Nmecha joins Middlesbrough on loan"He does not have to convince me to stay longer - he convinced me on day one. He knows exactly the opinion we have about what he's done at the club for many years. He is one of the greatest players this club has had in its whole history. Fernandinho has switched to defence this season after the departure of Vincent Kompany and then injury to Aymeric Laporte left Guardiola short at the back.
Action and reaction from Crystal Palace's draw with BurnleyMee epitomises Burnley resolveBurnley continue to find ways to confound expectation. Their first game back saw them hammered at Manchester City on a night overshadowed by a plane flying over the Etihad and arranged by some of their fans, pulling a "White Lives Matter" banner. Phil Bardsley, fresh from signing a new deal, was restored to the side at Selhurst Park, but they were again without Jeff Hendrick and Aaron Lennon (both out of contract this summer), and lost Jack Cork to injury during the game.

A healthy start to the season means they are unlikely to be dragged into the relegation battle as they currently sit nine points above third-bottom Mallorca but European football next season now appears a distant dream at San Mames. ATLETICO LOOK TRANSFORMED Few gave a stuttering Atletico Madrid side any hope against Liverpool last week, but their backs-to-the-wall Champions League victory appears to have galvanised Diego Simeone's side.
Bayer Leverkusen hosts FC Porto in one of the top-drawer clashes as the Europa League enters the knockouts, with both teams going to this game in good form. Leverkusen are on three straight wins though they have conceded in each of the last four matches.

Away team again lost to Bayern, and they usually go down when face some of the league favorite in the season. After games where they have scored a lot of goals, Borussia went down to zero, while Bayern scored one for the 1:0 at that time.
Big Bullets are ranked 8th on the Ranking Table, they still have many chances to reach the championship round when they are only 2 points behind the 6th place team. This match is therefore important to Big Bullets. Especially in the context that they are playing at home. It should be remembered that at the previous meeting on the Blue eagles Malawi field, Big Bullets won. Thus, that rate is clearly very positive. On the opposite side, Malawi's Blue eagles are proving extremely dangerous on the away field with a record of 2 wins away from home recently. Good luck
Reading plays home against Birmingham and this is a match in which the home side will feel it can be won. The Royals have been quite solid recently apart of those 2 defeats with Brentford and Leeds, winning with Wigan, Luton and Millwall.

Rodgers' gameplan of conceding territory and possession was understandable given the weapons his side have but, with Manchester City on their game, giving them so much of the ball was asking for trouble.
