It looked like they had blown their chances of going up after losing at Huddersfield Town on Friday, but Brentford's amazing run of eight successive wins was halted at Stoke a day later to leave West Brom one point clear with a game to go, and Fulham only two points off second spot. The Championship is hard anyway," said Bilic, who is hoping to take Albion back to the top flight after two seasons in the second tier.
This has a number of potential benefits, including: Freeing up July and August of 2020 for domestic leagues to conclude, virus situation permitting Aligning with the usual winter breaks of domestic leagues Replicating the season interruption of the Qatar World Cup in 2022, making rescheduling of postponed domestic fixtures and delayed league starts more straightforward across the two-year period However, this option would also provide an added complication midway through what is already likely to be a highly disrupted domestic calendar for many of UEFA’s member nations.
Odds have gone down a bit meanwhile on the away win here one reason could be that the guests in their last 8 away games have 6 wins and just 2 draws and kept no less than 4 clean sheets and they also kept clean sheets and won both games against Enfield last season when they also fought for promotion and won 1-0 at home and 3-0 here at this venue, so even bigger win for them on the road here.
Brescia are 19th in the league with 15 points while Udinese are 15th with 24 points going to the game. While their bad run will be a key highlight, Brescia’s run up to the game will be the sacking of coach =10. Eugenio Corini earlier in the week after a poor start to 2020. Brescia have the worst home record in the league and go to this match winless in their last seven games.
So we have to try other things and that is what we are going to do. Obviously, every minute Harry doesn’t play means a lot to us – it is a big loss for us. IN OTHER NEWS This is the wrong sport admittedly, but this is excellently done: HEROES AND ZEROES Hero: Osaze Urhoghide Don’t tell the Sheffield Wednesday debutant that there’s no magic in the FA Cup any more after his side knocked out Brighton.
What happens next? Needless to say, Messi’s comments have caused shockwaves. Sport - the paper that got the interview with Abidal - described the situation as a “tsunami”. While others called it “chaos”, Mundo Deportivo’s headline of “Abidal against Messi”, and a graphic which shows the pair going head to head, surely doesn’t bode well for Abidal.
Manchester City will give new Premier League champions Liverpool a guard of honour before Thursday's game at an empty Etihad Stadium, but who will prevail on the pitch?"I am sure the Liverpool players will have been partying," said BBC football expert and former Reds defender Mark Lawrenson. And, since the season started in August, they have been geared up to take the title off City, so will they have the same edge now they have done it?"I know Jurgen Klopp is as driven as City boss Pep Guardiola in terms of their players maintaining their performance levels, especially against a team as good as City, but even being 5% off will make all the difference in a game like this.
Shelvey has scored in back-to-back Premier League games for the very first time in his career, and in back-to-back league games overall for the first time since November 2011 for Blackpool.

That makes Gattuso an odd choice to inspire a Napoli side who are built on attacking, fluid football. He has to find a way to make his style work with this squad and then pit it against Italy’s standout manager and the current league leaders. On the midst of all that, Gattuso is handling the fallout of a major collapse in form for Napoli, who have won once in 12.
Overall, Monday's visitors aren't enjoying a good campaign. They would've been hoping to bounce straight back to the Bundesliga, but as they're down in a lowly 16th place, returning to the top division at the first time of asking is going to be beyond them.
Elgin City will host Cowdenbeath for this fixture of the league. I think, the hosts are strong favorites in this game. Elgin City is really better team than their opponent. Hosts have an effective attack. They have a solid defense. Yeah, I think, the hosts will closer to victory. However, this is a very unpredictable league. I think, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance. Cowdenbeath is not very good team in this season. They are currently bottom of the table. So, the visitors have a very difficult task. Also, Cowdenbeath have a poor results in the last mutual matches. In any case, they will try to break the poor series.
It's a blatant foul. VAR needs to step in and it needs to protect the players as well.

Ward-Prowse appeared to fall into the standing Andre Gomes, although he missed the penalty as he hit the crossbar.

David Moyes says he wants the chance to build 'a new history' at West Ham. It comes as the club announced plans to honour World Cup-winning trio Bobby Moore, Sir Geoff Hurst and Martin Peters with a statue at London Stadium. West Ham, who are 17th in the Premier League and above the relegation zone on goal difference, have finished in the top six three times since 1965. West Ham has a fantastic history.

I'm really happy to be part of that team. Takumi Minamino signed terms with the Premier League leaders on Wednesday"My target is to win the Premier League and the Champions League, and to make good contributions to the team. Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says the fans know what to expect from Minamino having seen him face the Reds recently. Takumi is a very quick, very clever player - he finds space between the lines," added Klopp.
Marcos Llorente put Atletico ahead after 15 minutes when he stabbed home from close range, with Gabriel Paulista equalising five minutes before the break. Atletico went back in front three minutes later when Thomas Partey smashed home a low drive from distance but Valencia's Geoffrey Kondogbia bundled the ball past goalkeeper Jan Oblak in the 59th minute to level the scores again.
Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says defender Harry Maguire could return for Saturday's game against Norwich at Old Trafford. Maguire, 26, suffered a hip problem in last Saturday's FA Cup meeting with Wolves and missed Tuesday's Manchester derby defeat in the Carabao Cup. It was initially thought Maguire would miss the Norwich match but the England star has responded well to treatment.
I know they played back two months ago also here at Sydney stadium and it ended just 0-0 in the end but circumstances where totally different as the hosts had 3 wins from 3 games in the league before that game, and did not really went all in on attack as in fact Brisbane dominated the game having more scoring chances and the hosts were happy in the end with the nil draw.
I think there was a reset going on anyway last summer. There was a drop in wages that were being paid outside of the Premier League and there weren't many big transfers, but there will be a requirement for that now. That doesn't mean there won't be any big transfers moving forward - there are bound to be - but it's important that it is managed in a way that the clubs are protected. Rigg - whose club have been described by Maguire as "financially, the best-run in the Premier League" - believes some clubs have been playing "fast and loose" and the current situation could allow them to re-evaluate their business models.
Leyton Orient player-coach Jobi McAnuff is unsure whether footballers' safety can be guaranteed if the sport resumes. The Premier League is discussing plans to restart the season, which was halted in March because of coronavirus. Former Jamaica midfielder McAnuff is concerned about the "disproportionate" number of deaths among people from ethnic minority backgrounds in the UK. I just don't feel that safety can be guaranteed in the current climate that we're in," he told BBC Radio 5 Live.
Kilmarnock comes into this game in great form on home turf, and they are currently undefeated in any of their last eight games at Rugby Park. The club has also won three of their last five, which is why we're backing them to win here, as Motherwell has also struggled on their travels by losing three times in their last four away fixtures. We're also going for a final score of 2-1 to Killie, as the visitors have scored at least one goal in six of their eight away games- scoring exactly one goal in three of their previous five.
Slough and Havant will face each other in the upcoming match in the National League South. Slough this season have the following results: 16W, 7D and 6L. Meanwhile Havant have 15W, 9D and 4L.
