Brentford were fourth and 10 points off the automatic promotion places when the Championship was suspended amid the coronavirus pandemic in March. Their run of victories, combined with the Baggies winning just three of their past 10 matches, saw the deficit shrink to just one point - although they will feel this is a huge missed opportunity. The west London side have not been in the top flight of English football since 1946-47, but the Baggies, or west London rivals Fulham, could now stop them going straight up even if they beat Barnsley.
Posted at 48' Hand ball by Aaron Connolly (Brighton and Hove Albion). Tottenham striker Harry Kane is aiming to become only the third player to reach 200 Premier League goals after scoring in Tuesday's 2-0 victory over West Ham. The England captain netted his 137th league goal for Spurs in his 200th appearance for the club. Only Alan Shearer and Wayne Rooney have reached 200 Premier League goals. I'm still only 26 so hopefully I can get to that 200 mark sooner rather than later and go from there," said Kane.
Eibar vs Getafe predictions for this Sunday’s early La Liga kick-off at Ipurua. A Getafe side unbeaten in five will be hoping to pile further misery upon Los Armeros who have lost their last three league games. Read on for all our free La Liga predictions and betting tips.
Meanwhile, Ancelotti tweaked the side, introduced more rotation and led them to another second place last season but the spark had already gone. This season has seen them implode. From a certain point of view, it's about the three points as always," said Sarri after Juventus steamrollered AS Roma 3-1 in the Coppa Italia quarter-final on Wednesday.
And that history is on the side of Flamengo, who won the 1981 Intercontinental Cup - the forerunner to the Club World Cup - by overpowering Kenny Dalglish and co in Tokyo. While European clubs generally had an attitude to the Intercontinental Cup that was ambivalent at best, in South America winning the trophy was seen as a significant achievement - hence the "mark in history". More than 38 years on, we're here again: the six-time European champions against the best supported football club in Latin America.
We can't come to a place like here, score three goals and lose 4-3," he lamented. We can't do that. When Newcastle travelled to the City Ground for the penultimate fixture of the season, their lead having been extinguished, Ferguson got his wish. Nottingham Forest, of course, offered no preferential treatment, earning a 1-1 draw which meant United would be champions if they could avoid defeat against Middlesbrough on the final day.
What followed was a glorious thrill ride that provided a thousand tales of Charlton's eccentric approach (although he was perhaps wily enough to use some of that to cover up an incredibly shrewd tactical mind and superb knowledge) and a period of success that still brings a warm glow to Ireland whenever it is recalled. Charlton wore an iconic white cap while managing the Republic of Ireland at the 1994 World CupCharlton made good use of eligibility rules to build a formidable side with players born outside the Republic of Ireland, such as central defender Mick McCarthy and forwards Tony Cascarino and John Aldridge among others.
Despite his support role the Belgian has still played a third of all possible minutes in the current season (more than ex-Leipzig midfielder Naby Keita, for example). When does the exit clause apply - and who can trigger it? However, even if Werner was Liverpool’s prime target, the exit clause figures involved in the new contract he signed last summer (until 2023) are unknown.
LACK OF UNITY Campbell said that English football, unlike its German counterpart, had long suffered from a lack of unity between leagues and the national federation. He said, however, that in the current emergency, the Premier League, Football League (EFL), Football Association (FA) and the players' union (PFA) had to work together.
We’re confident that a double chance bet in favour of Crawley is the best way to bet this weekend and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-1. The fact that Crawley have only won once on the road means we couldn’t back an outright win for the visitors this weekend but the form guide suggests that Crawley are in with a great chance of coming away from Saturday’s clash with at least a point to their name.
Wolverhampton WanderersWolves have lost three of their past six league fixtures, as many defeats as in their first 19 top-flight fixtures this season. They have led for 305 minutes in the Premier League this season, less than any other side, but have earned an unrivalled 18 points from a losing position. Their only previous victory in five Premier League matches played on a Friday night came against Manchester City in December.
NHS staff or people like that. So we feel that we need some sort of testing to go back and to be safe and obviously not put our families at any sort of risk. I think everyone's sort of feeling similar with our group of players, that we want to get back. I think football is such an important part of our country, whether you like it or not, and people rely on it. And if we can give that positive boost to the country, then that would be fantastic.
All will take a hit if matches are played behind closed doors, as expected, when the games eventually return. Leeds' average attendance is 35,321, by far the highest in the Championship. They estimate their total loss of income from ticket sales, hospitality and retail if Elland Road remains empty for their final five home games of the season is £3m. Club officials feel they could reduce the impact if they could offer fans the option of watching a live stream of games on their website.

I am surprised that, so far, no-one else has tried to replicate what Manchester United did when they held Liverpool at Old Trafford in October. It is something Leicester are capable of with the players they have. Manchester United drew 1-1 with Liverpool on 20 OctoberUnited went with three centre-backs that day, to go man-for-man with the three Liverpool forwards. They also sent their wing-backs forward to push back Liverpool's full-backs, and used a pair of fast split strikers who played high and wide.
We had to put the season on hold. If people's lives are at risk, that has to come first. Rooney, currently at second-tier Derby County, also proposed restructuring the fixture calendar once football resumed. We're happy to play until September if the season extends to then, if that's how it has to be.

TottenhamSpurs are unbeaten in 13 Boxing Day Premier League fixtures (W10, D3), with their last such defeat coming at Portsmouth in 2003. They are unbeaten in all 11 of their previous Premier League home matches on 26 December (W8, D3). Spurs attempted just five shots against Chelsea (including blocked efforts) - their third-lowest total in a top-flight home game since 2003-04. Since Jose Mourinho's first game in charge of the club, no Premier League team has let in more goals than Spurs in all competitions - they have conceded 14 times, a total matched only by Arsenal.
The correlation of force between Astra Giurgiu vs FC FCSB is not much difference. Both teams participated in the championship round in the 2018-2019 season. However, FCSB has a better record than the opponent. Even statistics show that, in the last 10 rounds, Arena Nationala teachers and students also have nearly double the score of Astra Giurgiu. In the past, Astra Giurgiu also had many times to receive bitter fruit when confronted with FC FCSB. 10 encounters from 2017 to now, the Marin Anastasovici team has won only 2 times, drew 1, and the remaining 7 matches lost to FCSB. In those times, even if he had a home kick, Astra Giurgiu was still much inferior to the opponent. Last year Astra Giurgiu finished 5th in 6th place and went to the championship round. They get 27 points after the last 10 intense matches. The weakness of this team is still in attack when the frequency of scoring is flat, there are not many dangerous situations. Along with that, Astra Giurgiu's defense last year played poorly, becoming one of the two teams conceding the most in the top 6 leading.
Former Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino says he "gave the best" of himself during his five-and-a-half years with the club. The 47-year-old Argentine led Spurs to four successive top-four finishes and last season's Champions League final. He was replaced by Jose Mourinho last week and in his first statement since, Pochettino said: "There were equally tough challenges as exciting successes. Best wishes for the future, I am sure we will cross paths again.
Palace have won 15 games in 2019 - more than Arsenal, Manchester United and Tottenham. However, it did come at a cost. With Sakho now set for a three-match ban and Van Aanholt facing a possible spell on the sidelines, Palace are threadbare in defence with Gary Cahill and Scott Dann already absent through injury. Opportunity missed for CherriesThree wins in their first six Premier League games gave Bournemouth fans hope of challenging for a top-six finish, but they have lost their way since then with just one win since the end of September.
Despite their worrying league position, Cologne have been enjoying an encouraging run of form in recent weeks. They have earned seven of their 14 Bundesliga points over the past four games.

And if - due to government intervention or 'insurmountable economic problems' - there is no more play, European qualification for the 2020-21 season should be decided 'on sporting merit'. The next Uefa executive committee meeting is on 27 May, by which time it is hoped competitive football will have returned to some countries and training in others - including England. However, with one lot of answers, comes more questions.

The club finishing 22nd could yet earn a reprieve from relegation should the English Football League deduct 12 points from Wigan Athletic for entering administration - although the Latics are appealing against the punishment.

Another match for today from Germany Bundesliga where I will bet on goals and I will try that. So, Eintracht is this season team who is at home playing very efficient and probably, they will be on that level in this time.

In last few matches, this team is every time played with three or more goals and now, surely will be same and this time. Over 3 is, like in match Werder - Schalke, very real option and I will try.

Both Brighton and Bournemouth signed up to donate 1,000 tickets each as a thank-you to workers who are under pressure during the Coronavirus crisis, but other sides are unhappy they acted unilaterally as they are reportedly unconvinced by the campaign. Paper Round’s view: It would be easy to assume that Premier League clubs are just being selfish again, given the amount of capital they take away from the rest of the football pyramid.
