Can Ljungberg stake his claim?Plenty of big-name managers have already been linked with the vacant managerial position at Emirates Stadium, but could Ljungberg conceivably remain as permanent manager?Compared with other frontrunners for the position, Ljungberg's CV does not measure up to the Premier League experience of former Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino or Wolves' Nuno Espirito Santo - nor the European credentials of Massimiliano Allegri and Carlo Ancelotti.
Tammy Abraham's chance to score a point-blank tap-in was brilliantly saved by Hugo Lloris in the 78th minute before Alonso's free-kick crashed off the bar moments later. And the game took a tense turn for Chelsea in the final moments as a low ball from Erik Lamela looking for fellow substitute Dele Alli was deflected in by Rudiger.
The Holte hostelry, tucked in a corner near the stadium's famous Holte End, was locked and silent, just a few lights on inside. Instead of the usual hubbub there was calm, although that was shattered by a huge thunder and lightning storm just after the Sheffield United team coach pulled into the car park behind the Witton Lane Stand. The car parks at Villa Park, usually rammed on matchdays, were largely desertedAs Villa Park's floodlights took full effect, it provided a spectacular backdrop to the big relaunch, as the media went through high security checks, including hi-tech temperature testing before being allowed in.

West Ham sack Pellegrini after defeat to Leicester Leicester close gap on Liverpool to 10 points after rallying from behind to beat West Ham West Ham sit precariously close to the relegation zone with just a single point separating them and 18th-placed Aston Villa. Their 10th defeat in 14 games in all competitions proved too much for West Ham co-owners David Sullivan and David Gold and their patience ran out.
Sixteen members of the team spent two weeks in quarantine, 14 due to close contact with a colleague who had tested positive while an additional employee also developed symptoms but subsequently tested negative.

I feel worth taking the big odds on the double chance on the guests in this one, as the only reason why odds are so low on the home win is that they have about 5 or 6 straight home wins at this youth level and the guests have been bottom of the league with really modest results but lately things have changed, and I say this because Diriangen U20 has two wins in a row starting with a tough priced at 20.00 win away at Juventus Managua U20 with 2-1 for them backed up by a 2-0 win at home with Chinandega U20.
Exeter City will host Salford City for this fixture of the league. Both sides are one of the ambitious teams in this campaign. Of course, both teams have the motivation to get the positive result. Perhaps, Exeter is favorites in this game. Exeter have advantage at home stadium. However, the hosts have fallen in their shape. They are not convincing team lately. In previous game Exeter lost 3-1 against average Walsall. On the other hand Salford are in better shape. They have two consecutive victories. In previous game Salford is won 2-0 against Bradford. I think, the visitors will try to get the victory on the opposite stadium.
Fernandes reportedly would prefer to move to London for family reasons and now has a decision to make. The move from Chelsea certainly comes as some surprise given the options in their midfield at the moment. Frank Lampard currently has Mateo Kovacic, Jorginho, N’Golo Kante, Mason Mount and Ross Barkley to call upon as well as Ruben Loftus-Cheek who is on his way back from injury.
Hertha Berlin fc and Union Berlin fc are going to lock their horns for the second time this season in Bundesliga premier league, the guests have won their first game of H2h.

It is hard to see them getting anything out of this game but all is not lost - they have got two home games against Watford and Aston Villa in the final fortnight of the season and, the way all of those teams are playing right now, it looks like the relegation battle will go right to the wire. Lawro's prediction: 0-1Big Zuu's prediction: This is big for both teams. West Ham boss David Moyes is under a lot of pressure and I know the goal they conceded against Tottenham that was actually a hand-ball, broke his heart.
Best defence in Europe Real Madrid beat city rivals Atletico 1-0 on Saturday in a performance that epitomises the way they are operating under Zinedine Zidane this season.

Belarus reserve league where will meet Torpedo reserve will take Gorodeya reserve. Torpedo over the past 5 matches 3 wins 1 defeat draw 1 scored 7 missed 5 in the attack they play not bad but in the defense they do not shine with the game. Gorodeya for the last 5 matches 5 defeats scored 3 missed 16 here they all sadly merge everything they can in the last match they managed to score 2 goals to strong Minsk which is already not bad. But still Gorodeya scored all their goals in the last match, they will come for another defeat and it seems to me they can’t even score a goal. And as for Torpedo, they will calmly start the match and must score at least 2 goals and finish on this.
In Saturday will be played few games at the program of the new round at Premier league of Belarus. Rivals at this match will be the teams of Slavia Mozyr and Minsk. Both teams are neighbors at the lower part of the ranking - 10th and 11th position.
Early reports are that there is no money to spend in January; that Mourinho knows this; and that he’s fine with it. There is also the suggestion that Mourinho may attempt to persuade one or all of Spurs’ high-profile contract rebels — Jan Vertonghen, Toby Alderweireld, and Christian Eriksen — to give the club another few years, rather than leave for free at the end of the season.
The weekend saw them go to league leaders FC Slutsk and come away with a 2-1 win. They'd gone 2-0 up in that match, both goals coming from the penalty spot. Slutsk got a goal back and Energetik had a player sent off in the 71st minute but held on for the victory. Home form has seen them win two and lose one.
Jefferson Lerma: The Colombian has never featured in my team of the week before and I'm not entirely sure why. Whenever I've seen Jefferson Lerma play for Bournemouth he always puts in a shift, never shirks a tackle and seems totally uninterested in the limelight. However against Chelsea he wasn't merely a 'valet' for the more accomplished players in the Bournemouth set-up but more of a 'butler'. Bournemouth had nine players out through injury but Lerma orchestrated one of the upsets of the day in a performance that will rank as one of the best in manager Eddie Howe's career.
The Frenchman scored both Arsenal goals and gave them a cutting edge in front of goal. The best you could say is that Lacazette made the most of the chances he was presented with, with Arsenal otherwise lacking in the final third. PLAYER RATINGS Arsenal - Leno 6, Chambers 5, Luiz 4, Holding 5, Bellerin 5, Guendouzi 4, Torreira 5, Tierney 6, Ozil 5, Lacazette 8, Aubameyang 7.
This means more. If you proclaim values superior to other clubs, and boast self-entitled credos such as this, you have to live by them.

Fernandes may have fallen out of favour at Benfica, but perhaps Mourinho’s tough love is, er, just what he needs. As for the length of the loan deal? The Warm-Up was confused, initially, but it makes a certain cynical sense. After all, there’s a decent chance that there’ll be nothing left of Mourinho by that point, bar tears and recrimination.
This should be one very interesting match between two teams that are equal. Both teams still have a chance for the playoff spot but also and can be relegated so every point matters for them. Pescara are so far at the 13th place with 38 pts and overall of 11 - 5 - 14 - 42 - 47 while Empoli are at the 10th place with 41 pts and overall of 10 - 11 - 9 - 33 - 35. Both teams are in a mixed form lately and cannot be trusted so under all this circumstances I expect one very even and tough game tonight from both sides .

Games involving Melbourne City have certainly been entertaining though with the goalless draw against Victory on the opening day being the one and only time that the 2.5 goal line hasn’t been beaten so far this season. Last weekend’s 3-0 loss to Perth was also the first time that both teams had failed to scored in a Melbourne City match since that opening day stalemate. In their games this season there have been four or more goals in a game on four occasions with the scoring 16 and conceding 14 so far.
Against tougher opposition, we would have doubts about Frankfurt in this round. However, their home form warrants respect against the very best sides as a recent 3-1 win over RB Leipzig showed. Basel have quality in their ranks but a series of postponements domestically could leave them prey to the frantic pace that Frankfurt operate at in front of their own fans. Back the home side to win by two clear goals.

Their behaviour is in contrast to that of the two Manchester clubs, neither of whom have sought to use the furlough scheme - with United confirming they would continue to pay all matchday staff during the crisis while the players have donated 30 percent of their wages to the NHS and City confirmed that they would not be furloughing any staff.
