GMT). The German, 52, says only 12 senior outfield players and new signing Takumi Minamino are fit for the Anfield tie and that changes would have to be made, despite the importance of the match to supporters. People have told me already I wouldn't respect the cup [by fielding a much-changed team]. It's not true, but my first job is to respect the players. I try to make decisions because of the situation and not the opponent.
I surely see a lot of goals in this match from Europa League and that is pretty real and ok for me. So, Krasnodar is interesting team who is in this moment playing better and better in every match. Team is in first match, if I remember correctly lost at St. Jakob Park in Basel even 5-0 and they will be surely motivated to beat this rival at home. I was watched them against Trabzonspor and they are really in this moment in very good form. Over is very real here, because I see goals on both sides in this match.
We showed an improvement in the first half and we had a lot of opportunities to score but we did not take them," said the Spaniard, whose side have gone seven games without a win. The first five or 10 minutes of the second half were good but then we lost control and we could not change the result. We tried to come back but we did not create any big opportunities to score. I am being positive but I'm also realistic and we lost against a good opponent.
brescia is really bad and right now one of the first favorites to relegate this season, they just can't defend anyone even when their offense produce some goals and tonight I surely expect from Ac Milan to score one or two goals and that could be enough for the win cause for brescia Balotelli is not going to play because of the red card in last round, and without him their offense is even weaker so for me this is one of the best bets for today and I surely want to recommend it to anyone, who wants to risk could go with handicap on Milan!
Their attacking players are starting to show what they can do with Diego Castro and, in particular, Bruno Fornaroli being the difference makers that they’ve been for years in the league. Another positive result here would move them to third as they look to close down both Melbourne City and Sydney FC.
To go on and win seven winners medals and make history. I was playing I didn't take it for granted because I loved and respected that competition. When you look back now and see, over 100 years of history that I have that record. I hope someone does but I hope it takes another 100 years. Here are Cole's three classic matches. Arsenal 1-2 Liverpool Media playback is not supported on this device On this day in 2001: Owen scores two late goals for Liverpool to win FA Cup 12 May 2001With Wembley being rebuilt, Arsenal and Liverpool fans headed to a sunny Cardiff in 2001 for the first of six FA Cup finals to be staged at Millennium Stadium.
I feel fit and healthy," Bennett told the club's website. Hopefully this sends out a positive message to the community that perhaps many people have or have had the virus without showing any effects. I obviously would never have known if we hadn't returned to training and taken the tests, because I don't feel unwell and have got no symptoms whatsoever. There seems to have been a lot of hysteria about footballers returning to training, but it's not a big deal at all.
When won their last game against vfl Osnabruck by thrilling 2:6 after not winning their last five games. They will face Stuttgart who are unbeaten in nine of their last ten games. They drew their last game in a derby against Arminia Bielefeld. When are a not a good home side since they have only won twice and losing six of their last twelve games. In their previous h2h Stuttgart have won their last two away games against When.
In their three matches after the restart, Atalanta took over from where they left, scoring a plenty but keeping few or no clean sheets. They have scored 10 goals in the three matches, but conceded five. In the last match, they should have beaten Udinese comfortably, but after leading 3-1 in the 79th minute, Kevin Lasagna’s goal for Udinese gave them a shaky ending.
Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti says avoiding relegation was the priority for this season despite previously targeting European football next term. Marco Silva left the club in the relegation zone in December before Ancelotti joined Everton and took them to a point off fifth place in February. One point from three games has ended any European hopes for the Toffees, who are 11th in the Premier League. We didn't put a time for [European football]," Ancelotti said.

Tukums 2000 are newcomers at the league. They are relatively a very young club with only 20 years of existence but they are not bad. Last year they were great at the 2nd league and now they are here but IMO they don't have the quality for something special and for sure will be among the weakest links at the league and will fight to avoid relegation. Daugavpils FC on the other hand had 2 very tough matches at the beginning against Jelgava and Daugavpils and this is their first relaxed match. There is just huge quality gap between this two teams for sure.
Viitorul even defeated the league leaders from CFR Cluj with 3-1 at home in a recent game they also defeated Belgian Club Gent with 2-1 at home in the Europa League but losing big the first leg played away from home by them made them lose qualification in the end still they are really good at home and score a lot of goals while Sepsis is not that great at scoring goals perhaps they can score a goal but I see Viitorul scoring enough goals here to cover this handicap bet and odds are quite decent to be taken in this one.
I know how hard they work. English champions City swiftly announced plans on Friday to appeal against the UEFA decision to the Lausanne-based Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). The ruling, if upheld, would mean City would not be able to compete in the next two editions of the Champions League should they qualify.
Orleans have suffered 3 defeats in their last 5 matches. They are in really bad form this season. They are coming off a draw against Auxerre by 2-2 goals. They sit on bottom of the table and only won once in this season.
Actually my main thought about this game would be that it would end up in a draw as Mattersburg is really not that in great form, they were the better team away from home at Tirol two rounds ago but despite their domination they could only draw the game with 1-1 in the end while last game for them in the league a couple of days ago was a pure disaster losing with no less than 4-1 at home to 2nd placed in this group Austria Vienna but they have won 2-0 away at Admiral and St. Polten is bottom in this group.
Aurier was among the Tottenham players who returned to training on Tuesday. The Ivory Coast defender previously apologised for posting a video of himself and a friend jogging during lockdown.

Karim Benzema celebrates as Thomas Lemar watches onGetty Images Before this season, Simeone spoke of his desire to evolve his ‘Cholismo’ ideology. While Atleti have become an elite level club over the past eight years, their inferiority complex and underdog spirit was still key to their success. With justification, Simeone reasoned that it was difficult to sustain this given the club’s recent big-bucks transfer business and the shimmering Wanda Metropolitano they now call home.
The problem has been at the other end as Niamh Charles scored just Liverpool's second goal in those nine games – a strike which she feels should have been worth all three points. We should be getting three points from this but a point is better than nothing, we were going for the three but we've got to keep the board ticking over with the one, so hopefully this will help us kick on," said Charles.
His relationships with his players"I have a very good relationship with all my teams but the mix of skill sets that these boys bring in here, plus the personality they bring, is absolutely exceptional and only this combination of things makes it possible. They are really a bunch of top boys and I am really happy to be part of this moment. They are all individuals and different and that's good, but they have no real selfish characteristics as well.
Just as in last summer’s World Cup semi-final, Christen Press opened the scoring for USA - this time with a delicious curling finish into the far corner. England’s form since the World Cup has been patchy and the pressure is growing on Neville, who indulged in a spot of straw-clutching when facing the media.

They have lost four and scored more than a goal in three of the last 10 matches, while keeping just two clean sheets. Two straight home wins should give Groningen the needed confidence going to this game and they have scored twice in each of the two matches. They have six home wins in the last 10 matches and two losses, while in the Eredivisie they have three wins in the last five at home and lost once.
GremioGetty Images FULL STORY 19:10 - Liverpool reverse furlough decision Liverpool have listened to the cacophanous volume of pelters being aimed their way since they said they were going to take state cash to furlough their workers, and announced they will front up the whole wedge instead. FULL STORY 18:20 - Italian referee sceptical of VAR during coronavirus "In some cases for the video assistants today, we use narrow spaces, such as vans, where the referees work in a space of two square metres, without a safe distance between them and other workers," Marcello Nicci - the head of Italy's referees' association (AIA) - told RAI television.
Unlike South Shields, they are not making a massive noise and do not have the finances to contemplate legal action. They can only shake their heads and hope. I did email the FA and ask for an explanation but I haven’t had a reply,” said Stanway. If they have declared the season null and void, does that mean all the money they have taken from disciplinary fines is going to be returned as well. We had a nest egg, which we used for the work we have done but we need those grants to be paid.
United will be favourites in hosting this game but we are expecting Ole to play out a young inexperienced side. All United need to qualify is a draw, meaning both sides have already qualified. We are backing a 1-1 draw here.
Despite this win, Nîmes will have to remain wary of their defence as Reims are one of the worst attacking sides in the league, they won't have such luck when facing goal hungry Rennes. The Crocodiles had conceded 24 goals in the nine matches preceding their win over Reims so can't consider themselves out of the jungle just yet.
Home team is huge favorite in this match from England league One and everything but easy win for them, it will be huge surprise - that is the fact. This team is in excellent form and they are in series of even five wins in a row. In last two matches, this team is not just won - their attack was brilliant and they are scored seven eight goals, 4-0 and 4-1. Their rival - Southend United is team who is fighting for survival and their defense is problematic. I believe in goals here and I will bet on that option, it is real.

Mourinho replaced Mauricio Pochettino, who guided Spurs to the Champions League final and four successive top-four finishes, in November, with the club struggling in 14th place. The former Chelsea and Manchester United coach began his reign impressively with four wins in his first five matches and the team scored 16 goals in the process. But after beating Brighton 2-1 on Boxing Day, they went four league matches without a win and in that period, top-scorer Harry Kane suffered a serious hamstring injury that required surgery and is likely to sideline him until April.
