Novak Djokovic is the favourite to win his third tournament of the year. He has been in great form this week but had to fight hard to get past Gael Monfils. His opponent has had an easier route to the final and he lost heavily last time up against Djokovic. Go for the world number two and top seed here to get the win.
It was a bit more nervous than it needed to be in the end and I'm a bit tired of saying that," said Lampard. It is a bit the story of our season. We need to take more of our chances. We leave teams slightly in the game, then they have two shots and score one goal. That was the frustrating thing in a very good performance. I felt it was so comfortable but I was aware of the Valencia score (a 1-0 win over Ajax) and 2-0 was a dangerous scoreline if you are scared of getting a draw.
Deportivo Ocotal U20 will against Walter Ferretti U20 in match Nicaragua Youth. My prediction this match could be the end score is over 2.5 goals due to Deportivo Ocotal U20 on last 3 match in league can make total score is 8 goals. Meanwhile, Walter Ferretti U20 on last 3 match in league can make total score is 2 goals. Therefore, I think the both team have average to make score per match is 2 goals. Moreover Deportivo Ocotal U20 more strong in every home match like as they can beat Las Sabanas U20 with score 5-0. Surely this match will the end score is more than 2 goals.
When Emery was announced as Arsenal's new manager in May 2018 in the wake of Wenger's exit there was some surprise, but a general willingness, even from Wenger diehards, to give the Spaniard time to mould a team. There were encouraging signs at first. After losing his first two Premier League games in charge, against Manchester City and Chelsea, Arsenal went on a 14-match unbeaten run and appeared set for a top-four challenge.
While they managed to put five goals past Strasbourg, they also lost to the likes of Amiens (0-1) and Montpellier (0-4). They've won just one of their last eight league games and with the Montpellier result finishing off their 2019, les Ty’Zefs will be crying out for a clean slate. Brest haven't scored in any of their last three games and have conceded eleven goals in their last eight matches which will have some of the nerves jangling as they make the short journey south for this Derby de la Bretagne.
But the act couldn't be maintained for too long. A man who relishes conflict as much as Mourinho - a man who has contributed to some of the most spectacular verbal battles seen in the Premier League - can't stay away from it for too long. WHEN DID THE CRACKS APPEAR? After seeing Spurs lose 2-0 at home to his former club Chelsea, Mourinho saw fit to dig out Antonio Rudiger for apparently playacting during an incident that saw Son dismissed - on a night when the Chelsea man was the target of racial abuse.

Euro Papers01:29 Leeds ‘keeper banned after outburst Leeds United goalkeeper Kiko Casilla has received an eight-game ban for a racist outburst aimed at Charlton player Jonathan Leko, as alleged in the FA’s report.
On one occasion, during a home loss to Burnley in March 2018, a fan grabbed a corner flag and tried to plant it in the centre circle while insults, and coins, were hurled at the occupants of the directors' box at the London Stadium. Saturday's 1-1 draw at home to Everton, Moyes's second home game since returning to east London for a second rescue mission, was again marked by unrest as hundreds of fans protested against owners David Sullivan and David Gold.
The Paisley outfit struggles to perform on home turf, as they have picked up just a single point in their last four matches in a 3-3 thriller with Livingston. Despite not getting the results they want, St Mirren still causes damage to opposing teams, scoring at least once in five of their last six home games, although they have conceded an average of 1.2 goals, which increases to 2.5 times in their four most recent games.
Juventus coach Maurizio Sarri was surprisingly generous in his praise of Lazio, who he said were experiencing a "magical moment". If they carry on like this, there’s not much for anyone else to do," said Sarri, who coaches a team with far superior spending power to Lazio. For me, right now, physically and mentally, they are the best team in Europe.
Huddersfield Town's 43 league games unbeaten between December 2010 and November 2011 - the second best run in English history - was ultimately fruitless. They started and finished the run third in League One, with their 3-0 play-off final defeat by Peterborough United in the middle not counted as a league game.

The Professional Footballers' Association has had talks with social media companies after Premier League players were sent racist abuse. Iffy Onuora, the players' union's coaching and equalities executive, said the talks with Instagram, Facebook and Twitter have been "broadly supportive". Sheffield United's David McGoldrick and Crystal Palace's Wilfried Zaha were abused on social media at the weekend.
Alianza come into this match having won the last match away from home with 2 goal margin. Last season at home they managed to win 10 of the 11 matches at home and scored 35 goals conceding only 9 goals in those 11 matches.
Unbeaten in their last seven matches against Saint-Etienne, Rennes deserve to be the favourites to win this match. In contention for a Champions League place, the visitors deserve to be respected for their league form alone. However, their Coupe de France pedigree is a different beast entirely. We can only see Rennes winning this contest.

At the age of just 20, he has shown the necessary maturity to shine in a difficult situation at the club and is attracting plenty of interest around Europe. With Marseille desperate to raise funds and cash in, there is no doubt that Kamara will be a prized asset. WHO IS INTERESTED? Juventus seem like an excellent option for Kamara to join as they look to rejuvenate their defence.
For large parts of the Goodison Park encounter, Hodgson's side played well and were perhaps worthy of a point, particularly after going close on a number of occasions in a strong start to the second half. Much-maligned striker Benteke also got his first goal of the season. It ended a run of of 17 games and 765 minutes without scoring in the Premier League and it was clear to see the goal restored some missing confidence, with the Belgian looking lively for the remainder of the game.
This is equally as damaging," added Eyles. Everybody wants to see Coventry playing in Coventry. The club's owners are saying they want to do that in their own ground. That's fine but their own ground is going to take them years to build. If we are outside the city for years and years, there will be no club to come back to because the fans will find something else to do. Having boycotted games at St Andrew's, will Eyles go if Coventry force a draw against Birmingham - and are officially the away team in the replay at the same venue?"I'll more than happily go there as a visiting spectator - not when we are the home team," he said.
Espanola will be meeting with the away team Audax and this game we have given it a draw at full-time as looking at the last games that this two teams have played together they have not recorded a draw in the last 7 games and so this makes us to be very sure that they will give us a draw at full-time
Torpedo should be able to play for three points here, since this team show that can make positive results against any of the mid or lower table rivals. They even challenge some of the competition favorites, like Soligorsk or B A T E, and team should be able to look for the position among the Europa league place in the top of the table.
All three goals came from full-back assists. That isn't a fluke, it happens all the time. That's one of the reasons Liverpool have been so extraordinary. Former West Ham and England goalkeeper Rob Green on BBC Radio 5 Live: "Liverpool weren't at their best on Monday. Compared to last week, the performance from West Ham was a stark contrast.
Barca lead the way with Real Madrid at present but know they will probably need three points here to stay on top. Ernesto Valverde’s side began November with a woeful 3-1 defeat at Levante and a dull 0-0 stalemate away to Slavia Prague. Barca have netted in five of their seven La Liga matches on the road.
Hapoel Petah Tikva will host Hapoel Ashkelon for this fixture of the league. Hosts probably are favorites in this game. Hapoel Petah Tikva have advantage at home stadium. However, the hosts have highly variable results. They are not convincing team. They have only 1 victory in their last 5 matches. In any case, I think, this will not be an easy task. Also, we have Hapoel Ashkelon who's is a poor team in the last matches. Of course, the visitors have a very difficult task. In any case, they will try to break the poor series. My pick - Ashkelon to win.
The Argentine made an emotional connection with Spurs fans, who warmed to him and his personality. Mourinho is not interested in warmth and emotion - only results. He is also ruthless and pragmatic - which brings us neatly on to his style of play. Tottenham supporters bought into the fast-paced, intense, pressing style of Pochettino's teams. They have been attractive to watch while moving into Europe's elite group.
Foden provided an assist for Sergio Aguero's opening goal and was awarded man of the match as England boss Gareth Southgate's assistant Steve Holland watched on from the stands. England are set to face Italy and Denmark in the March international break, where Foden will be hoping he has the chance to impress Southgate ahead of this summer's European Championships.
Lusa also reported Sporting's board of directors will take a 50% pay cut. With the pandemic shutting down global sport on an unprecedented scale, Sporting is the first of Portugal's three major football clubs to announce the cuts. FIFA has urged clubs worldwide to consider wage reductions in order to protect their finances.
Switzerland, which has had at least two dozen confirmed cases, introduced a ban on Friday on events expected to draw 1,000 people or more until March 15 in an effort to combat the coronavirus. In response, the Swiss League called off all matches in the top two divisions and Saturday and Sunday and it has now extended the ban to the international break at the end of March.
Candidates for the new Premier League Hall of Fame must have retired and only a player's Premier League career is considered. A place in the Premier League Hall of Fame is reserved for the very best," said Premier League chief executive Richard Masters. It will be an occasion for our fans around the world to look back over the years and help us celebrate some truly exceptional playing careers. Each inductee will receive a personalised medallion, engraved with the year of their induction.
Rangers will line up against Braga with the Europa League's top goalscorer in their frontline. Alfredo Morelos has six goals in this season's competition and we wouldn't bet against him adding to that tally on Thursday. Yet Braga have quality of their own with Paulinho scoring four goals in the group stages. We think they can match and potentially better anything that Rangers have to throw at them at Ibrox. Back the visitors in a double chance bet.
Bayern Munich have won four straight matches. Bayern Munich have scored eight goals in their last two matches. Al Ahly have no loss in the last 32 matches. Al Ahly have four wins in 13 matches at the Club World Cup. African champions Al Ahly are making their sixth appearance at the FIFA Club World Cup and will be hoping to have an impact this time.
All Champions League and Europa League matches have been suspended "until further notice" by Uefa because of the global coronavirus pandemic. All national team games in June have also been postponed, including play-off matches for Euro 2020 - already postponed to 2021 - and qualifying matches for the Women's Euro 2021. The European governing body's 55 member associations met on Wednesday. The Premier League is suspended until at least 30 April.
Eric Cantona had his seagulls, Mauricio Pochettino had his cows and now Ivan Rakitic has his 'sack of potatoes'. Football is full of weird and wonderful quotes and Rakitic's metaphor sits up there with the best of them as he found a unique way to criticise Barcelona's treatment of him. The Croatia midfielder has been with the Catalan club since 2014, but lost his regular starting place this season with the arrival of Dutch wonderkid Frenkie de Jong.
Bayern, who had won their previous four games in all competitions under Flick, hit the woodwork three times and missed close to a dozen golden chances from top scorer Robert Lewandowski, Serge Gnabry and Ivan Perisic among others. Leverkusen were left with 10 men after a red card for Jonathan Tah in the 82nd minute and survived enormous pressure to hold on to a memorable win.
Which records have slipped away or are looking unlikely?That Watford win ended hopes of Liverpool joining Arsenal's invincibles of 2003-04 - the only side to go a Premier League season unbeaten. Manchester City's record haul of 106 goals in a Premier League season from 2017-18 looks very safe - Liverpool would need to muster 32 goals from their last four games to beat it. City's hauls from the same season of 50 away points and 16 away wins are both also safe - Liverpool can 'only' reach 15 wins on the road and 47 points away from Anfield with two more wins.
Sancho has scored five goals in 17 games this season and has become one of Europe's most sough-after players since joining the Bundesliga side from Manchester City. Savage comes out of retirement to join Stockport Former Wales international Robbie Savage has made a surprise return to football by signing for Stockport Town.

They are sixth in the table, the final play-off place but will be confident of three points against bottom-of-the-table Deportivo Ocotal. Juventus Managua are two points clear of Chinandega but have a final two games that should provide plenty of points. After this game against Ocotal, their final match is away at one-from-bottom Sabanas.
Klopp, speaking to BT Sport, said: "It was not exactly what should happen but it happened. It was the fight we expected and the atmosphere we expected but I love so many parts of our game. It is only 1-0 down at half time and the second half we play out our stadium. We lacked in the final third. They defended with all they had - their defending in the box was incredible.
I don't know the reason why, maybe the club could answer it better," the City boss said at the time. I say to the fans, not just ours, when they can go they will go and maybe there's different reasons, honestly I don't know. However, the former Barcelona manager has praised the fans this season, calling them "incredible" but reiterating that the team "need them" after their 3-1 win over Leicester City in the league.
These two teams drew just 1-1 at Botosani in the start of this season but really both were good when attacking problem being Gaz Metan did not attack since taking an early lead in that game and Botosani missed many scoring chances till a late 1-1 goal, but this time Gaz should be more attacking minded at home still they are not great in defense lately and Botosani is good at scoring goals on the road so will back the over 2.5 goals bet here in this one to happen at decent odds offered here by this bookie so over.
Doncaster Rovers will host AFC Wimbledon for this fixture of the league. I believe, the hosts have real chance to get all three points. Doncaster are more ambitious team in this season. Also, Doncaster are in better shape. They have two consecutive victories. In previous game Doncaster is won 0-1 against MK Dons. On the other hand Wimbledon is one of the outsiders in this league. They are currently bottom of the table. Visitors have less potential. Also, they have a vulnerable defense. Also, Wimbledon is not very good team away from home. I think, the hosts will go in this game to victory.
Thistle, in particular, were the most notable casualty in the resolution being passed. They're bottom of the Championship, so they're automatically down despite being just two points behind Queen of the South with a game in hand. Thistle and Stranraer weren't mapped in the original statement. Never mind sympathising with them, there was no mention of their fate at all until a clarification was put out five minutes later confirming that, yes, the pair of them were going down.
United are yet to concede a goal in the Europa League this season - no side has ever kept a clean sheet in each of their opening five group games. Astana have lost their past six Europa League games by an aggregate score of 1-17. Only Luxembourg's Dudelange (15) have conceded more goals in this season's competition than Astana (14). United have managed just one shot on target across their two away games in the Europa League this season - Anthony Martial's penalty in the 1-0 win at Partizan Belgrade.
