Arsenal are at home against Southampton. Arsenal are in 6th position with 17 points from 12 matches, scoring 16 goals against 17, their form dropped recently after 5 games without victory, if the woes will continue here, we will witness that with this game. In their past games, 2-2 at home against Crystal Palace, followed by 5-5 draw in EEF Cup against Liverpool which they lost in Penalties, 1-1 at home against Wolves, in Europa league 1-1 at away against Guimaraes of Portugal and 0-2 lost against Leicester. Southampton are almost on their way to relegation unless they start to gain points, 8 points from 12 games and goals difference of 11 goals against 29 is their form presently which isn't enough to continue the trade in the English Premier League if they don't change their way.
Man of the match - Sergio Aguero (Manchester City) There were man of the match displays all over the pitch for Manchester City but this was a historic day for Sergio Aguero, who has been lighting up the Premier League for nine seasons. We gave City too much respect' - what they saidAston Villa boss Dean Smith: "It's tough when you come up against world-class teams. There's a professional pride as a coach and a team, and the third goal summed it up - they had about 20 passes without us laying a glove on them.
While Wigan aren’t backing last season’s exploits at home, Derby have fallen down the table with some terrible results on the road. The Rams head into this clash following an 11-game run without a victory on their travels, having lost seven of those matches in that time. Only three sides in the division have picked up fewer points on the road this term.
It was the first time I'd ever received abuse and I didn't know what to do, so I just turned around and gave some verbals back, which I shouldn't have. Now, running the line on Football League games, depending on the stadiums that you go to, you're literally yards away from fans and you can hear the abuse, but you have just got to learn to ignore it. Sunny believes his job as a prison officer has helped him as he has made his way up the refereeing ladder.
We have to) prepare, play good, better, be as close as possible, play the knockout (cup competitions) and prepare for next season. Next season will be here and, hopefully, we can do better. Asked whether it was now tough after two title-winning years to motivate his team for the more modest goal of qualifying for the Champions League, Guardiola said: "The best motivation is to try to play good, win games, that's the best".
Werder, deep in relegation trouble in the Bundesliga after losing eight of their last 10 league games, shocked the visitors with two goals in the first half.

Monaco have three straight wins over Amiens and will be taking on Amiens at a time their hosts are winless in eight matches.

Slightly different organisation, things we need to get used to, all that stuff. It’s Mexican style, if you want – full of passion, how you would imagine. We are looking forward to it. It’s absolutely interesting; it’s my first game against a Central American team I think, in a proper competition. Let’s try to make the best of it.
But, while all 16 of the CSL clubs have returned from prolonged overseas training camps, many of the foreign stars lured to the league in recent seasons have yet to set foot in China this year. Chinese media reported Brazilian duo Paulinho and Anderson Talisca, who were influential as Guangzhou Evergrande reclaimed the title last season, remain outside the country as do Beijing Guaon trio Renato Augusto, Jonathan Vieira and Cedric Bakambu.
The Rome side, who are on a club record 18-match unbeaten run, host Inter at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday evening in what has been billed as a decisive date for this season’s Scudetto race. But Conte insisted that both sides should be seen as underdogs in their bid to end Juve's eight-year stranglehold on the Serie A trophy.
People who work with you have to learn how to share your principles," Mourinho said. I have principles that I will keep for the rest of my career and that I cannot change. One of these principles is I don't like to lose," said Mourinho who has won 20 major titles. Tottenham have only won 17 major trophies and last lifted the league title in 1961 when they won the double.
I think that we have to be good role models within the squad and provide a good environment for the younger ones coming up and also a good intensity," she said. That's our job, but I think we want to be on that pitch so hopefully we perform at a good standard anyway. It's great for the team, I'm now turning into the older side, but there's a few of us there now who have had experience of major tournaments and hopefully the youth can bring that no pressure environment.
However, it was announced on Monday that a Chelsea fan has been arrested for allegedly racially abusing Son Heung-min, something that the Spurs forward didn’t hear and was reported by other Chelsea fans. As for Rudiger, Spurs released a statement on Monday confirming that they are investigating the matter, but that so far their findings have been “inconclusive”.
A move to Chelsea actually seem quite reasonable. Champions League. He would be a confirmed starter for Frank Lampard's side, whereas he probably wouldn't be at Liverpool or Barcelona and a move to Manchester United doesn't seem too appealing just yet as they continue their rebuild. It also helps that he's admitted to being a boyhood Blues supporter.
Vital was somewhat of the teams that are among the top in the league, but having weak play and poor run in the previous three round, they are out of the title fight and should not be able to make up more than 10 points behind the leader. They are facing the first placed team, and away side is in must win position, because of the fight with the second rival in the competition Musongaty.
Even those of us who are fairly immune to the emotions surrounding a sporting event were choked at these wonderful moments before kick-off. Bocelli was accompanied to the centre circle by Ranieri, who demanded, and was given, silence before a truly wonderful rendition of "Nessun Dorma". The formalities of the trophy presentation were completed after the game on a day that now has added poignancy after Leicester City owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, who helped built that title side, was one of five people killed when his helicopter crashed outside The King Power Stadium on 27 October 2018.
Red Devils boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is hoping their blossoming friendship will play a part in the attempt to bring the pair to Old Trafford. Maddison, who commands a £90-million transfer fee, has been offered a contract extension at the King Power Stadium but United are planning to offer him wages worth £200,000 a week - which is double the Foxes' deal.

This is match from Germany Bundesliga and duel who will open this round in this super interesting league. As I saw so far, Leverkusen is maybe and in the best form of all teams in this league, after restart of this season, after pause of Corona Virus. They are so far beating very easy all rivals, and of course, they are favorite and in this duel, against Freiburg. Still, home team can be dangerous sometimes, so it is not impossible that we will see surprise here, 2-2 or something similar. I will because of that try with goals here, it is ok.
Greece, Super League. Larisa takes Atromitos. It is still unknown who will become the winner, but the fact that the game will bring a ton of pleasure to its fans cannot be disputed. All you need to know about Greek football is selling everything you can. Both teams are typical middle peasants of the local league, they don’t set goals above the average, they play fairly moderately without sharp ups and downs. Often their matches are mirrored. But in the 1st round they had a draw, and today they are the fastest to play like that.
There are suggestions that Werner has a release clause of anything between £25. Chelsea are trying to investigate. Paper Round’s view: With 23 goals in 24 games this season there’s no doubting Werner’s quality and it’s clear he would bring something extra to the Chelsea attack. However, it’s doubtful whether they could sign both Werner and Jadon Sancho and should prioritise the latter, if they can.

PIF looks set to finance 80% of a £300m takeover of Premier League side Newcastle, who have been owned by Mike Ashley since 2007. My plea to you [the fans] is to think whether accepting Mohammed bin Salman's offer is really the right way out of the despair for your club and city," said Cengiz in the letter.

It's going to be difficult, I know, and for now it's a moment to wait and we'll see what happens. It's a moment of recovery, to think about yourself a little bit, and to be ready because in football always something can happen and you need to be ready. I'm ready and waiting for a new challenge. I have the belief and confidence that the next challenge will be fantastic.
Red Star Belgrade have conceded the most in this competition. Bayern Munich have only conceded four goals in the campaign. The reverse fixture saw Bayern Munich run out 3-0 winners. In the past couple of years, Red Star Belgrade have carved themselves out a reputation as a difficult side to beat. But they haven’t been able to bring this into their Champions League campaign this season, with resounding defeats to both Bayern Munich and Tottenham in Group A.

We are here to win games," said Courtois in his teammate's defence. What has happened, has happened. He [Bale] gives everything in training and matches to help us win.

United's leading goalscorer Rooney left Old Trafford in 2017 after 13 years and spent a season back at boyhood club Everton before heading to DC United in Major League Soccer. In January he returned to England to take up a player-coach role alongside Phillip Cocu at Derby, and Carrick - on the coaching staff with United - expects Rooney to continue behind the scenes. He knows the game so well, he's intelligent on the pitch, and he's gone on to lead like he did in his final years at United.
He takes on Marin Cilic who is ranked 39th in the world going into this tournament. Agut has had to beat Feliciano Lopez in the first round in straight sets and then had to go to four sets to defeat Michael Mmoh. The Spaniard had a successful 2019 and broke into the world's top ten for the first time.
Clyde, Peterhead and Forfar Athletic would be in a similar situation, while Cove would stay in the bottom tier despite winning League Two last term. Earlier this week, SPFL chief executive Neil Doncaster wrote to clubs asking if they would back a 14-team Premiership for next season and, if not, how might their objections be overcome. That followed Hearts' owner Ann Budge's failed attempt to gain support for a 14-14-14 structure for the next two seasons.
This is not the first time officials have been accused of corruption linked to the Gulf state's bid during the sprawling FBI probe. In 2017 Alejandro Burzaco, a former TV executive, told a jury in New York that Leoz, Teixeira - and the now former Argentina football chief Julio Grondona - had been paid to vote for Qatar, which beat the US in the vote. But never before have US prosecutors formally laid out in such detail how the alleged corruption was conducted.
He has scored goals in every league he's played in and I always had him earmarked to come back in and he showed us what he was about. Newcastle manager Steve Bruce told Sky Sports: "The first half in particular we did not do enough with or without the ball. We felt we were harshly done by with two free-kicks, but the way Conor Hourihane has executed them made it a difficult night. Conor is very good, I have seen it many times and he has the accuracy and power to score.
He was eventually signed by Santos, for whom he made his professional debut in 1986 at the age of 19. Miura left Santos for Palmeiras later that same year. One of his team-mates at Palmeiras was Mirandinha, who in 1987 became the first Brazilian to play in English football after joining Newcastle United for £575,000. Miura was top scorer and most valuable player in the inaugural Japanese J. League season in 1993, seeing off star imports such as Gary Lineker and Zico to both accolades.
The 22-year-old Manchester United forward had been a doubt to return this season, and he might have even missed the now-postponed Euro 2020 tournament with England, but he has now said: ‘I’m in a much better place, I’m much happier than I was about a month ago, so things are looking positive. Paper Round’s view: This enforced break will be handy for Rashford, as it will a few other players who were set to miss out on the rest of the season - or much of it - with injury.
It is not yet clear when the 2020-21 season will begin. However, after confirming its intention to play the FA Cup final on 1 August, it is understood the FA is hoping to conclude its flagship youth competition at some point and is working with relevant partners to find a solution. Logistically, playing this season's competition beyond the end of this summer creates difficulties as decisions about whether to offer under-18 players professional contracts would normally have been taken.

Gareth Bale scored twice and was named man of the match in Real Madrid's 2018 Champions League final win over Liverpool Bale the 'shy and quiet' teenagerBale has long led Wales by his deeds on the pitch and, with captain Ashley Williams losing his place in the side lately, the Real Madrid forward often wears the armband. His development as a leader has taken time, as has his physical progression from a boyish Wales debutant to his current muscular frame.
The visitors have seen both teams score in 75% of their away trips this term, while Swansea have just two clean sheets in their last 10 home matches. The Welsh side have conceded in 77% of their matches at the Liberty, while Charlton have found the net in 83% of their trips. We expect them to get another goal here, with both teams to score our pick in this clash.
Barnsley come into this game having conceded at least twice in seven of their last eight. Overall this season, the Tykes have conceded twice or more in 12 of their 16 league games. The league's worst away side have already conceded 33 goals this term and they should ship another couple here. We’re backing over 1.5 Blackburn goals on Saturday.
