Colchester United is at 4th place at standings, they will play in front of their fans against direct rivals for promotion, Exeter City is at second place at standings, and is six points above the host. Colchester City have has played one match less than their opponents, and no doubt that host want a positive result from this duel. Colchester attacker Robinson is in good form, he scored two times in last round. Exeter City plays with two attackers, Bowman and Martin, but in this duel they will probably to play with strong defense and on counterattacks, a draw result at away ground, against direct rivals for promotion place, would satisfy their chairman.
MAN OF THE MATCH Sadio Mane (Liverpool). Palace were never able together to grips with his intelligent runs and, whilst not his most clinical performance, he still came up with a goal when Liverpool needed one. KEY MOMENTS 17’ - BAD MISS! Palace waste a great chance as Alexander-Arnold gives the ball away in his own half and it eventually ends up at the feet of Kouyate, who picks out Ayew with a great cross, but the Ghanaian pokes wide.
Bayern striker Lewandowski picked up a yellow card, meaning he will be suspended for their league game against Borussia Monchengladbach next Saturday. The Poland international has 44 goals overall this campaign, but will now only have three games to chase down Gerd Muller's record of 40 in a single Bundesliga season. The game was the first in the UK to be aired by BT Sport with simulated crowd noise during play and goal music when a team scored - an idea which is being considered by the Premier League for its 17 June return.
Good for you and your disciples that ridiculousness is less deadly than the coronavirus," Aulas replied on Twitter. Le Graet stressed that neither Aulas nor Eyraud would have an influence on how the matter would be dealt with. The federation is the sole body that will decide the future. Don’t waste your breath, don’t be ridiculous," he said.
Kamara then profited from Lumley's mistake to double his tally for the game and season, and it was nearly three for Fulham moments later as Knockaert hit the post in a rousing come-from-behind win for the Cottagers. Fulham manager Scott Parker on match-winner Kamara:"I'm really pleased for him. He has not been a problem since I stepped into the role. You have to manage him differently but he gives you everything and he topped off his performance with two really good finishes.
There were so many disappointments in that performance. There were so many unprofessional performances from players. Such a poor game for Arsenal," Keown told BT Sport. It was the first time I felt that the players were not responding to the manager and the manager didn't know what changes to make. If you break down the performance you could have looked at every player and say they could have all done more.
Southampton have the worst home record in the Premier League this season. Aston Villa have conceded the most goals (50) in the Premier League this season. Danny Ings has scored five goals in his last ten games in all competitions. The Saturday clash at St. Mary's sees two sides looking to end losing streaks clash when Southampton host Aston Villa.
Indeed, but for the swathes of empty seats at the empty Cardiff City Stadium, you would never have known these teams had not played competitively for over three months as the visitors in particular started assuredly. Marcelo Bielsa's side had the better of the early running without making any clear-cut chances, though Leeds did appeal for a penalty when they felt Joe Bennett had impeded Helder Costa.
Ten minutes later he went again, but this time Forster kicked away his attempt with his right foot. Morelos really should have put that one away. Redoubtable giant Forster saves Celtic'Celtic were being schooled, their only saving grace being that they were somehow level. They couldn't live with the intensity of their rivals. At the break, Mohamed Elyounoussi, anonymous and clearly still unfit after a month out, was replaced by Mikey Johnston but the theme carried on as before.
But ultimately I'm the best man for the job and shouldn't be embarrassed about that. One day later when he apologised after old controversial tweets he had posted about women emerged: "My comments were not a true and genuine reflection of either my character or beliefs. I am fully aware of my responsibilities as the England women's head coach and am immensely proud and honoured to have been given the role.

Under 2.5 goals were produced when these two sides last met in February and under 2.5 goals were also produced in each of Vitoria Guimaraes’ and three of Portimonense’s last six matches. The hosts have drawn four of their last six matches and each one has ended 1-1 while the visitors have drawn three of their last five matches and each one have ended 1-1, so you can see why we have backed both teams to score and a final scoreline of 1-1 this weekend.
He alleges false information was spread in relation to money received by him after the 2014 World Cup. Blatter and Platini both deny any wrongdoing. AnalysisBBC Sport's Simon StoneGiven the background to this case, Fifa believe it has an obligation to chase the money. It was confirmed in court there was no basis for Blatter to pay Platini £1. Fifa funds and the world governing body feels it would be leaving itself open to action if it failed to respond in an appropriate manner.
I understand why there are concerns, and to be clear we already require gambling operators to market, advertise or engage in sponsorship in a socially responsible way. We are in touch with all operators in the deal to find out what they did to satisfy themselves. A Gambling Commission spokesperson added: "We expect gambling operators to ensure, when agreeing commercial deals relevant to sport, that such arrangements are consistent with keeping gambling safe.
Imagine the scene - your team are 8-0 up at half-time against your big cross-town rivals in the highlight of your festive fixture list. But, rather than battle it out, your opponents decide they would rather go home than come out for the second half. Well, that is exactly what happened in Abingdon on Saturday as the Oxfordshire town's big game between Abingdon Town and Abingdon United ended in bizarre circumstances.
After 9 matches, the side have 9 points and have shown they can be competitive at this level. Indeed, they've lost just 2 of said matches and have made themselves hard to beat, but will be hungry to start turning draws into wins and Tuesday's game represents a good opportunity to do exactly that, with a weak visiting outfit in town.
Stephane Omeonga and Jamie Gullan added late strikes in an emphatic victory prior to Nikolay Todorov's consolation.

He is not just my old team-mate; he is my friend and he was the first player I went to meet when I began putting the programme together at the end of November 2015. It was great to see him in such good form, looking well and laughing and joking. As I expected, he had some classic stories about Euro 96, including some other tales of what he got up to at the hotel and also how he did not let some of the Scotland players forget the spectacular goal he scored against them at Wembley.
In the four seasons we've had that we've managed to stay in the Premier League. Howe told reporters. It's just we've managed to keep our heads above the line in all of those seasons. So in other people's eyes. The reality is it's always been tight and we've just managed to get a big result when we needed it.
Home team will surely win in this duel from Belorusian Cup and that is pretty real to expect something like that. In any case, BATE Borisov is the best team from this country and they are favorites in every duel, that is clear. In the same time, they are in series of even four wins in a row, while rivals team who is lost last few matches in a row. So, I believe that BATE will not just win in this duel - they will do it more than easy and I believe in their win with at least two goals difference.
Talking Point - Can Southgate trust Pickford in Euros? Euro 2016 with Joe Hart. World Cup with Rob Green. Error-prone goalkeepers have hurt England in major tournaments in the not-too-distant past and Jordan Pickford's form is such that he looks a prime candidate to add to this Hall of Shame. Sure Fernandes hit the ball well with some swerve and dip but it was moving towards him and any Football League goalkeeper would be angry to concede in this fashion.
They're in the league above us, they're physical, strong and won't be easy but we're excited because we love good games. It's a difficult one to go in to after Christmas but the FA Cup is just a cracking cup, isn't it? Everyone wants to play in it and everyone wants to get really far. With the far greater financial resources nowadays enjoyed by WSL sides, Warren knows they are unlikely to add to the club's heroics of the 1970s and 80s with a ninth cup triumph this term at Wembley.
All those superstars of the past, nobody ever did what you are doing - it's something that nobody can ever take away from you. Debuts, the Dutch and dunked in a fountain12 June, Gothenburg. Netherlands (Bergkamp 75) 1-0 ScotlandFirst up were the reigning champions - a star-studded Dutch team at the Ullevi Stadium. Despite a spirited performance, full of energy, commitment and passion, the Scots eventually succumbed to a Dennis Bergkamp strike 15 minutes from time.
I was at a non-league team called Little Common," Legge recalls. I'd gone up for a header in training and as I came down I got light-headed. I lost all control of my body and fell back. Luckily for me the manager, who had a daughter with epilepsy, knew how to deal with me. I woke up with all the players around me. An ambulance came and I spent the night in hospital. On Saturday, Legge will lead League Two Port Vale out at holders Manchester City in the FA Cup third round (17:31 GMT).
Newcastle owner Mike Ashley was criticised last week after charging fans for season tickets in the 2020-21 campaign despite the Premier League being suspended because of coronavirus. The Sports Direct owner also apologised after lobbying the government to keep his sports shops open despite being told to close them as part of the lockdown in the UK. He initially claimed they were an essential service, but then changed his mind after a backlash from staff and the media.
The Brazilian striker, 28, who has scored eight league goals this season and has previously played for Real Madrid, apologised to Real Sociedad fans after a move to Tottenham fell through last month. Asked about the links with Barcelona, Real Sociedad boss Imanol Alguacil referenced the player's buyout clause earlier this week when he said: "If they put the 70m euros on the table then fine, there's nothing left to say.
Gangwon finished 6th last season and ended up last in the championship round. Seoul, on the other hand, was third and made it into the AFC Champions League. For me, Seoul is at the front here, not least because the reinforcements give them hope for the championship title. Currently the two clubs are very inconsistent. For Gongwan, 3 defeats in the last 5 games like. Other hand, Seoul has 2 wins in its last 5 games. At home, Gangwon is very solid and had only a defeat in the last 5 home games, unlike Seoul who has not won any away game in the last 5 trips. Finally, on the H2H side, Gongwan has lost only once in the last 5 confrontations against Seoul at home. Four of them ended in stalemate.
Both teams have been involved in a number of stalemates of late, with Mansfield drawing two of their last three home games and Forest Green picking up a point in their last two away games. The pair have also drawn two of their last three league meetings against one another and head into Saturday’s clash in equally average form. However, Forest Green have 14pts more on the board than their hosts and boast a goal difference of +8 compared to Mansfield’s -5 and we believe the visitors will avoid defeat this weekend.
League OneThe season was suspended with teams having played 34 or 35 of their 44 games, and ended on 9 June with places decided on a points-per-game basis. Champions Coventry City and runners-up Rotherham United will be promoted to the Championship. In the play-offs for the final promotion place, Wycombe face Fleetwood, with Oxford taking on Portsmouth. Because of Bury's expulsion reducing League One to 23 teams, only the bottom three teams are relegated to League Two - Tranmere Rovers, Southend United and Bolton Wanderers.

Cabinteely and Bray were fighting for a place of playoffs for promotion last season and Cabinteely was more good and arrived that and Bray was below them with 1 place. Now is the first match and I expect goals in this match.
PSV have won five of their last six matches against Fortuna Sittard and last lost against their guests back in 1999 and have kept four clean sheets in their last six encounters with Saturday’s guests, so you can see why we have backed the hosts to win-to-nil this weekend.
I think Brighton could stay unbeaten against Chelsea. There are two reasons for my pick. First, Brighton won 2:0 against Bournemouth in the previous round. I believe the players confidence is now higher, as the victory came after four matches winless streak.
Zob Ahan will host Nassaji Mazandaran for this fixture of the league. Both sides are not very good teams in this season. Yeah, the visitors have better position than their opponent. However, they are not convincing team. Also, Nassaji Mazandaran have a poor results on the road. I think, the visitors have a very difficult task in this game. Also, we have Zob Ahan who's is very average team in this league. However, they are currently bottom of the table. In any case, the hosts have the motivation to change their position. I think, the hosts will go in this game to victory.

I believe that we will see a lot of goals in this match from FA Cup and that is pretty real to expect. Fulham is in pretty good form, but in last match in league, in Championship, they are lost at home against Reading 1-2. I believe that they will not play this match with their strongest team and same I can said and for their rival. Aston Villa is similar team who is try to survive in Premier league and also for them, this match is not so important. I believe in goals here and I will try that.
Zhodino reserves and Smolevichi reserves will face each other in the upcoming match in the Reserves league. Zhodino reserves this season have the following results: 5W, 2D and 2L. Meanwhile Smolevichi reserves have 6W, 0D and 3L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
The visitors continued their dominance after the restart as they demonstrated their play-off credentials, but as has so often been the case this season Shankland's laser finishing rescued Dundee United. The Scotland striker did brilliantly to stop a cross dead in the slippery conditions, and with a flash of his feet deceived two defenders before firing into the bottom corner.
Just four goals conceded in this group stage, and 10 scored. For Rangers, Gerrard's results in Europe continue to be a revelation. The former Liverpool captain, who was a rookie manager at the fledgling stage of Rangers' exploits last season, has amassed an incredible record. In 27 games, he's won 13, and lost three - none of those defeats at Ibrox. They were also through to the last 32 for around 25 minutes on Thursday.
What does bode well for the hosts is that they've not conceded many goals at this venue, shipping only seven, which gives them the joint-second-best defensive record in the division. If they can spread the goals that they score out a bit more evenly, then a top-six finish is theirs.
