There has also been scrutiny of the ethics of the procedure, given other British athletes were not offered the same and Dr Chakraverty told colleagues at the time it "goes against policies" and there was "an extremely strong argument not to do this now".

Cologne had taken an early lead through Jhon Cordoba, the striker hammering in a rebound after a shot against the post. But Patrik Schick soon headed Leipzig level and Christopher Nkunku sent them in to half-time ahead with a lovely dinked finish from Konrad Laimer's fine pass. Werner scored with ease when Cologne inexplicably left nobody back from their own corner and Leipzig goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi was able to catch the ball and send him clear on goal with a long punt downfield.

That made it 2-2 on aggregate and meant Olympiakos were heading through on away goals. But there was one final, dramatic moment to come when, with seconds left, the ball ricocheted into Aubameyang's path six yards from goal and, with just the goalkeeper to beat, the striker missed. Somehow. The Gabon international has scored 61 times for the club since his debut in February 2018 - a tally only Liverpool's Mohamed Salah (64) can boast better among Premier League players But this time the usually deadly forward skewed his effort wide and, after a miss which left players from both teams with their heads in their hands in disbelief, Aubameyang himself was at a loss to explain what happened.

Well besides the fact that Anderlecht is quite clearly having their worst season in more than a decade or even two decades as they are really far away from the top 6 places at this moment, and they exited the cup competition last month at home and yes it was Club Brugge who defeated them at their own stadium with 2-0 in the end but really it was 9 shots from Club Brugge against just 1 shot from Anderlecht in that game as it was easily controlled for the guests.
And they will probably have to take a pause and wonder whether it’s responsible to send hundreds of thousands of people pinging across Europe at any time while this virus is still a factor, which it’s probably going to be for a long while yet. Not that there aren’t complications. The Athletic report this morning that UEFA will demand that clubs and leagues cover the cost of shifting the whole thing back a year, a cost which comes to something like €300million.
After years of pushing, this could be the year which sees the Bees making another serious promotion push. Meanwhile, West Brom are heading back towards the Premier League on current form, unless they are about to see a Festive collapse spurred on by this test.
We're also backing a final score of 2-1 to the Steelmen, as the visitors have conceded at least twice in four of their last six away games, have scored an average of 0.78 times on the road and have let in two goals on average.

That's five more than any other player. Jamie is such a top-level player," said boss Rodgers about a striker who has scored in eight successive games. He is always ready when the chances come; you don't think there's any doubt he is going to score. The goalscorer pounced on Kelechi Iheanacho's pass to tuck away his first after rounding goalkeeper Tom Heaton, despite mis-hitting his initial strike, and then sprinted clear to tuck home a second late on in a classic Leicester counter attack.

Well, this is going to be very interesting match. Both teams are in huge fight to avoid relegation but I give the upper hand here to Rize. Denizlispor are just so bad lately. They lost 5-1 from Besiktas at the previous round and even the results are not bad for them the performances are not something special. On the other hand Rize are in kind of a must win situation if they want to avoid relegation. They are currently at the 15th place just one place above the relegation zone and with the performance they are showing lately I would be surprise for them to win here

Nothing has changed in terms of how we have been working thus far in this situation, but I've always said we will react accordingly," said Rodgers.
the home side should be able to win this match. Piacenza is the team in form right now. At worst this match should end into a draw. The head to head also looks sweet for the home side having won the previous fixture comfortably I expect them to have less trouble while play at home because they are currently in good form. This match has always provides goals compared to the usual way how matches end in the Italian league. So we expect goals today and more for the home side. Both teams are also likely to score, so a score of 3:1 or 2:1 is on the cards
But some kind of compensation will almost certainly have to be paid. Last weekend BBC Sport revealed that football's senior medical experts, along with their counterparts in rugby, racing and cricket, were to be invited to a series of virtual meetings, in what was described to me as a "quickening of the pace" in preparations for a resumption.

The north London side are currently 11th in the table, 10 points off Chelsea ahead of tonight’s clash with West Ham. The Swede has overseen a draw with Norwich and a dismal defeat to Brighton since taking over from Unai Emery at the Emirates, but still refuses to rule out Champions League qualification.
They have scored in each of their 19 matches this season and nine of their last 10 matches have produced over 2. However, Inter have managed just two clean sheets in their last 13 matches. They go to this game unbeaten in the last four home matches, where they have won three. In the last four home matches, they have scored two goals in each.
tonight will be playing match between teams Tottenham and Olympiakos Piraeus. my prediction for this match is away team not to lose with more than 1 goal difference. 1st match in Greece have finished with draw result 2:2 but Olympiakos played much better than Tottenham and they deserved to win there but they hadn't enough luck. now, Tottenham will have home ground advantage and they have new coach- Mourinho, but I think they will concede goal here and maybe will win here 2:1 or 3:2, but also I think that away team have good chances to take 1 point here. good luck.
Chelsea then took the lead through Willian's penalty but battling West Ham levelled through Soucek's header right on the stroke of half-time. Man-of-the-match Antonio bundled West Ham in front six minutes after the interval but this eventful affair looked to be heading for a draw when Willian's superb free-kick with 18 minutes left drew Chelsea level. And yet, with injury-time looming, West Ham broke and the tireless Antonio set up Yarmolenko for a crisp finish that gave Moyes' men what could be a priceless three points.
Shandong Luneng maintained their grip on fourth place with a 3-1 win over Tianjin Teda that keeps them one point ahead of Jiangsu Suning who beat Chinese FA Cup finalists Shanghai Shenhua 3-1. Wuhan Zall, coached by former Everton midfielder Li Tie, guaranteed they would finish in sixth place in their first season back in the top division with a 1-0 win over Jordi Cruyff's Chongqing Lifan.
They host Alanyaspor who are in fifth but only two points above their opponents. The home side are struggling for form and have gone four league and cup games without a win. Midweek saw them lose 2-0 to Tuzlaspor in the Turkish Cup. They are already out of the Champions League and need to somehow win at PSG to give themselves the chance of a Europa League place.
Even at home, Brescia have been far too unbalanced, scoring just five and conceding 15. Relegation seems unavoidable if they don’t improve quite considerably in both areas. Unsurprisingly, the hosts have won none of their six home games, only one of which they've drawn. They've also kept just one clean sheet, conceding two or more in five out of six.
The tiny Basque side, who have the smallest stadium in La Liga, took the lead in the 10th minute when Esteban Burgos stabbed home from close range at the far post after Atletico failed to properly defend a corner. Atletico, who lost last Sunday's Super Cup final to Real Madrid on penalties, were without captain Koke plus defenders Kieran Trippier and Jose Gimenez and never got a grip on the game on a rain-swept evening at Ipurua.
This prediction is a clear win for Manchester City between Manchester City vs Chelsea, statistics shows Manchester City has been winning more games than Chelsea, Manchester City has again more point than Chelsea, also in higher position than Chelsea, Manchester City is more informed than Chelsea, Chelsea has conceived more goals than Manchester City, have loss more match than Manchester City, Chelsea has been a lower position on the table than Manchester City and if you look closely they haven't been more goals between both Manchester City and Chelsea, from previous game played and other previous match played singling or both team has been doing well on goals, in today production we are going to be taken home to win direct.
Interestingly, Mourinho also stayed at the training ground last night in order to avoid getting snapped by photographers this morning on the way in. Where next for Pochettino? After more than five years in north London, his CV will take quite some updating. Two things, we think, are clear: he will not manage Barcelona and he will not manage Arsenal, because of his association with rivals Espanyol and Tottenham respectively.
Since 2013 these two team have met 18 times in all competitions and away team has never won even a single one of the fixtures. The best they have done is come up with only 1 draw in their 2017 league cup fixture. Despite such history, the away team is indeed in good form winning eight of their last 10 games in all competitions, drawing one which is their recent game and losing one. It's important to note that the game they lost was against the home team. While the home teams form may also be good with 7 wins in 10 games in all competitions, it's not better than the always team. But what has made me go for the home team win is surely there is something that drives the home team to win this fixture no matter what.
In just three of the 26 completed Premier League seasons has the side scoring the most or joint-most winners in the 90th minute or later ended as champions.

Ntcham dallied needlessly outside his own area, the ball was fed to N'Doye and from around 10 yards, on an angle, his finish was true off the inside of Forster's right-hand post. Suddenly the home side were level and totally re-energised. Callum McGregor then blasted over from just outside the box when he had Christie to his right and Edouard to his left, Copenhagen's cover stretched to the limit.
