In the twelfth minute Sterling had been booked for an ugly, mistimed challenge on Dele Alli that itself was VAR reviewed and not upgraded to a red card. In that instance the technology favoured Manchester City, where players at other clubs have not been viewed so charitably this season. The inconsistent application of this technology is infuriating supporters, and also the players; in the melee that followed Sterling going over Zinchenko was booked for losing his rag, a caution that proved to have a huge knock-on effect for the final result.
Neither of these two teams have been solid at the back this season. Werder Bremen currently have the Bundesliga's worst defensive record. They have conceded 40 goals in 16 Bundesliga games. Meanwhile, Cologne have not been much better at the back this season. They have conceded a total of 32 goals in their 16 Bundesliga games.
However, the Telegraph report the west London club have been told by PSG to cough up a transfer fee of £12. Cavani, who would be available to sign for free in the summer as his current contract with the French champions expires in July. Paper Round's view: The Blues have been heavily reliant on 22-year-old forward Abraham during what is just his first full Premier League season at his boyhood club.
Wolves built a name for themselves last season thanks to a number of very impressive performances against the established big guns of the Premier League, and that has continued this term too. They have avoided defeat in five of their nine home league games against last season’s top six since their return to the top flight, and with just two home defeats this season in the league we like the look of a Wolves Win or Draw Double Chance on Friday.
After investing heavily in the close-season to secure the likes of Nicolas Pepe, Kieran Tierney, David Luiz and Gabriel Martinelli, British media reported Arsenal are working with a modest transfer budget this month.

On Monday, Cellino was asked about Balotelli's situation on the sidelines of a Serie A general assembly. He's black, what am I supposed to say?" he replied.

With last week being a bye week for City, they lost top spot with Sydney FC claiming a win against Western United and moving to the summit of the A-League for the first time this season. Melbourne have the chance to leapfrog their rivals again here, albeit potentially only for 24 hours. The hosts have been in good form this season, dropping just five points so far and having the top scorer in the league in their ranks, with Maclaren scoring his eighth and ninth goals last time out against Western Sydney.

With 11 minutes remaining, Didier Drogba was a yard offside when putting Chelsea 2-0 up, and the Blues not only saw out the victory but went on to lift the title by a point. It could well have altered little going forward in the 2010s, but would have added another trophy to Sir Alex Ferguson’s jam-packed cabinet.
Watford boss Nigel Pearson is trying to ensure his side do not ease up after climbing out of the drop zone, because there are teams down there who are floundering. The ball is rolling for the Hornets a bit now, which obviously helps, and Pearson just wants to keep this run going, but they will no doubt have a day soon where they mess up, don't play well, and end up beaten. I don't think that will happen on Saturday, though, because Spurs are below their best.
I think it's important you show respect to all the people at the club whatever your role is, and I think we have shown real good togetherness by doing this. Rangers said some of their employees would be furloughed due to "extraordinary challenges" from the crisis but would continue to receive their full salary through "top up" assistance from the club.

The virus has caused almost all major football on the Continent to be suspended, with France's Ligue 1 on hold indefinitely. Neymar is understood to have left earlier this week - just before France went into lockdown - given the "anxiety-inducing" situation brought on by Covid-19. Chelsea chasing Coutinho More transfer news now (and isn't it lovely not to have yet ANOTHER coronavirus story to talk about?!),,,,,Chelsea are reportedly frontrunners for the signature of Philippe Coutinho, who is currently on loan at Bayern Munich from Barcelona.
Atalanta have also been steady producers on the road this season, going undefeated in their past three road contests across all competitions, and a solid 5-3-2 overall on the season. The club could also get a huge lift with the return of attacker Duvan Zapata, who has been sidelined since October with a leg injury. We are predicting a close victory for the home side, Shaktar Donetsk.
Luton Town welcomes Charlton Athletic in England Championship 18th round. Both teams are out of form but the visitors are more better than the host. Luton Town are struggling to escape relegation but their form is totally very poor for that, 5 league straight lost matches don't speak better for a team that want to leave relegation zone. 22 position in the league, 14 points from 17 matches, 23 goals against 32 , 4 wins in all, 2 draws and 11 lost matches. Charlton are 13th in the league with 23 points, 24 goals against 21, winning 6, 5 draws and 6 lost games. Last 4 meetings between both teams ended in over 3.5 goals.
Cardiff City gave their promotion hopes a huge boost by beating Championship title hopefuls Leeds United 2-0 in a frenetic contest in the Welsh capital. Junior Hoilett's superb first-half goal after Kalvin Phillips lost the ball put Cardiff ahead before sub Robert Glatzel smashed home a second on 71 minutes. Leeds were always in the contest and would have at least scored but for some excellent saves from Alex Smithies.
In the end, this match echoed the last time these teams met, Arsenal letting a two-goal cushion slip as Palace fought back to draw 2-2 in October. Arsenal have now failed to win five league matches this season after leading at half-time. Aubameyang is the third Arsenal player to score and be sent off in the same Premier League match - and the first since Mikel Arteta against Palace in 2013Palace fight backInjury-hit Palace came into this match above Arsenal in the Premier League table, having lost only one of their previous eight league matches, but looked far from settled as they struggled to cope with their revitalised opponents in the first half.

This game means everything to Norwich, who are six points out of the safety zone and battling to avoid an immediate return to the Championship, they know they have to win. As for Southampton, safety is almost assured, after recovering from a poor start in the season.
Barcelona president says La Liga should play three games abroad a year'Home games should be played at home stadiums'Last season, Barcelona pulled out of a proposed match with Girona in Miami due to a "lack of consensus" between stakeholders. La Liga's intention was for Atletico Madrid to face Villarreal in the USA this season but those plans were abandoned after a court in Madrid ruled the Spanish FA could not be forced to give consent to the game, as required by Fifa.
Sergio Ramos scored the only goal for a second consecutive game as Real Madrid beat Athletic Bilbao to go seven points clear at the top of La Liga. Ramos slammed home a penalty - just as he did on Thursday against Getafe - after Dani Garcia fouled Marcelo in a decision given by VAR.

Belshina will be meeting today with the away team Gorodeya and this two teams we have given them an over of 1.5 total goals as looking at the last games this two teams have played together we can be very sure that they will score an over of 1.5 total goals
I would go as far as to say this game has potential for even 4 goals to be scored it if not more as the guests have 4 wins in a row games in which they scored 14 times winning on the road their last two games once with 5-0 and once with 3-2 so game even with over 4.5 goals scored in them while at home they also won their last two games played by scoring 3 goals each time like last round against Csakvari when I also had a bet on over 2.5 goals and the hosts won it 3-0 so it was covered.
European club football has ground to a halt as countries across the continent look to stop the spread of the virus. Euro 2020, which is set to start on June 12 and take place for a month across 12 different nations, could be pushed back by a year to give the national leagues a chance to finish. The postponement of the European Championships is the idea to follow,” said Gravina.
Second leg on 1/2 final in Belarus and matsh between Bate and Slavia. On first match Slavia won 1-0. After that match Bate have two wins and one draw games. In last 5 matches in all competition Bate have 3 wins and one draw and one losses games with goal different 6:1. On the another side Slavia is ob bet form after won Bate they losses two matches and one draw. In last 5 matches in all competition Slavia have two wins one draw and two losses games with goal different 5:6. I think today Bate have big chance to go to Final. Bate is on good form and my prediction is Bate win minimum 2-0. Good luck
Had VAR not interjected on their behalf to rule out a Teemu Pukki goal for the tightest of offsides, Tottenham might well have lost to the division's bottom club at the weekend, and Spurs' failure to net from open play against the league's worst defence compounded what was a miserable evening in East Anglia.
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.

Chelsea, of course, did not bring anyone in but I actually think that takes the pressure off their manager Frank Lampard because everyone knows he has to make do with what he has already got. Lawro's prediction: 2-0Katie's prediction: 3-4WEDNESDAY Man City v West Ham (19:30 GMT)Having this game delayed by 10 days might help Manchester City a bit - Aymeric Laporte will have a few more training sessions under his belt and could be fit enough to come into contention.
Wolves have managed to score in all 10 of their home league games though, and they’re facing a visiting side with just two clean sheets away from home this season. This makes backing Both Teams to Score look an attractive price.
If you are a goalkeeper and your confidence has been shot away, you cannot be risked. Lawro's prediction: 2-0Samuel's prediction: 3-1 Liverpool v Chelsea (20:15 BST)Liverpool will lift the Premier League trophy on the Kop at full-time and I think that will influence Jurgen Klopp's selection, and the performance levels of his side. Klopp will pick his strongest possible team and they will want to get back at it after last week's defeat by Arsenal.
Santa Clara won 4-1 in the Taca de Portugal last time out against Leixoes but haven’t won any of their last four league games, while Boavista were narrowly beaten 1-0 by Porto before the international break and sit two points and four places above Friday’s hosts.
Adam Idah said scoring a hat-trick in the FA Cup was "everything you want growing up" as Norwich beat Preston North End to reach the fourth round. The academy graduate, making his second club start, handed the visitors an early lead with his first Norwich goal. Onel Hernandez doubled their advantage before Idah hit a stunning third from 40 yards after Connor Ripley's mistake. Billy Bodin and Josh Harrop scored for Preston, led by Ex-Norwich boss Alex Neil, but Idah struck with a penalty.
Both of these teams are from Sweden. The host are from the division one while the guest are from the division two. The host are currently on a losing streak of four games in which they have conceded 1 goals in their last 3 games scoring just one. Though they are from a higher league than the guest with the form they have been showing out this game will be no easy one for them. The guest have been defeated in just one of their last 6 games which they had. I think they can win this game today way from home
The 10 is such a big deal because you're going to make history as the first team to do it. They money you earn from football will go over time, but no one can take away history," says Miller. Stein, who scored the 1975 title-clinching goal in a 1-1 draw with Hibernian, adds: "There was a lot at stake and it was such a relief, for the team and especially the supporters. It's always about trying to outdo Celtic'The Lions' record stood unmatched for 23 years.
The video assistant referee overturned the decision for a foul by Virgil van Dijk on United goalkeeper David de Gea in the build-up, and Solskjaer suggested the FA's decision to charge his club was harsh. Maybe I shouldn't talk too much about that," he added. Let's get that decision done but. Karen (Shotbolt).
I couldn't work out why Todd Cantwell and Teemu Pukki both started on the bench on the weekend, when Norwich lost at home to Brighton. Media playback is not supported on this device Norwich 'deserved more' after 1-0 defeat by Brighton Mind you, Pukki has only scored twice since mid-December and has not found the net at all in his past 11 appearances. The Canaries don't have a goal threat and that's one of the reasons I am going with Watford here.
With Spanish soccer on hold along with most live sports while the world fights the coronavirus pandemic, players traded the pitch for Playstation in an online tournament organised by esports commentator Ibai Llanos and endorsed by La Liga.

Phil Foden slid the ball across the edge of the box to Silva, who made a sharp turn before driving the ball past Fulham keeper Marek Rodak into the bottom right corner. City continued to carve open Fulham in the second half, with substitute Raheem Sterling striking the crossbar from close range on the hour mark.
Yet their total outlay on Daniel Podence, Luke Matheson and Leonardo Campana was almost £20m, the fifth highest in the Premier League and more than Wolves have ever spent in a January window. The criticism comes from growing expectations that now have to be managed. There are some who feel the club may have got to their present situation slightly more quickly than was actually ideal. There have been some major changes since that night in Crawley.
Sam Kerr will miss Chelsea's Women's Super League matches against Manchester United and West Ham in February after the striker was called up by Australia for their Olympic qualifying campaign.

The 26-year-old will miss a training camp in Sydney before meeting up with the Matildas squad in China.

Subs: Vertonghen NA, Gedson 6, Lo Celso 6. KEY MOMENTS 9’ GOAL! Villa take the lead almost accidentally, well, it's Alderweireld going on the scoresheet thanks to a deflection so it is, really. GOAL! Alderweireld cancels out his earlier own goal as he turns and swings at the goal, it’s a tight angle – he’s done well there.
We sort of feel that our backs are against the wall," Rose told the BBC. Conversations were being had before people outside of football were commenting. I've been on the phone to (Liverpool captain) Jordan Henderson and he's working so hard to come up with something. It was just not needed for people who are not involved in football to tell footballers what they should do with their money.

I think every team in the world would struggle with five or six of their most important players missing, it is as simple as that," said Mourinho, whose side host fifth-placed Manchester United on Sunday. I'm pretty sure in the next match the boys will go again ready to give everything they can give. That is not easy for them at that level.
A small group of extremely peeved Everton fans visited the club’s training ground on Wednesday, which is never a good sign. They met football director Marcel Brands and had an “amicable” chat. The Warm-Up wasn’t there, but we imagine the conversation began with the weather, moved on to the humiliation at the feet of Liverpool Babies, then ended with a group lament about how tiring it is, day after day, week after week, to support a football club this utterly cursed.
