Chayka will play against avangard Kursk in the Russian National league. In my opinion the hosts will not win despite being favored by the bookies. The most likely outcome seems to be the draw and therefore I take that as a choice with greater value.
Granit fc are running a bad form so far they have three consecutive losses they have sustained this season of division one of Belarus, so as compared to the visitors they are not strong enough to contain the visitors so I am backing the visitors to take all points.
We thought about Ibrahimovic when Ancelotti was in charge, as he would have taken a certain role. Now before thinking about him, I have other priorities, as this is a team that must play in a different system. Allardyce angling for Arsenal job Carlo Ancelotti? Mikel Arteta? Massimiliano Allegri? None of the above would sort out Arsenal's defence as well as Sam Allardyce, according to the man himself.
We can't rush him," manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said. Hopefully he will play again this season but it will be touch and go towards the end. Asked if he could miss the Euros Solskjaer added: "I hope he would play before the end of the season but if he is not fit then he won't go. Rashford out with stress fractureSolskjaer 'has to take some blame', says Ian WrightNeville criticises Old Trafford recruitmentIn January Solskjaer had refused to offer any assurances about Rashford being back for the end of the season, saying it would be at least six weeks before the striker was fit to start training.
Nottingham Forest are back in form after successive wins, but will their strong festive run continue? They are up against Blackburn this week, a side who have just seen their fine run of Championship form brought to an end. Now Rovers are on the back foot after a tough spell, while their mixed away form is a concern here.
HNK Rijeka no longer has the opportunity to compete for the championship when it is 20 points behind leader Dinamo Zagreb. But saying that does not mean that they will give up in the last 6 matches of the Croatian 2019/20 league. Because in front of teachers and coach S. Rožman still has the task of protecting the 4th position holding, the position to participate in the Europa League.
The 11th and 12th teams in the classification will meet in this match of the 2nd Serbian football league, the Vranje team has obtained 4 pts more than its rival from Zemun so far so I see here a chance for them to win and to guarantee their placement for next season.
Plus, some teams in the lower leagues train at council facilities, which could make complying with the regulations all the more challenging. Show clubs the moneyAt the heart of all of these issues is money, which is where the philanthropist James Anderson may come in. The Edinburgh-based investor has held discussions with the SPFL about donating money to help clubs during the crisis, understood to be around £2m.
Huddersfield have improved since the Cowley brothers took charge, there can be no denying that, but they're struggling to turn the corner in terms of consistency. One week, they'll get a good result, but backing one good result up with another is proving to be very problematic for The Terriers, who've not won back-to-back games since the first week of November.
Certainly no one present at the New York kickoff could claim MLS lacks ambition. David Beckham and Jorge Mas, co-owners of one of the MLS's newest entries, Inter-Miami, expect their club to one day be a global brand in the world's best league. I think the MLS will be one of the top sports leagues in the United States.
Presumably Solskjaer felt De Gea was more suited to this FA Cup semi-final when measured in temperament and experience. He could not have been more wrong. He was selected because this was a big game and he let his manager down. The question now is how long Solskjaer will keep faith with De Gea when these mistakes continue? Media playback is not supported on this device De Gea mistakes send Chelsea to FA Cup final Solskjaer is building a United side with a potent attack and a developing midfield but serious questions now surround the failing keeper who has been a figure of such influence at the club over almost a decade.

ChelseaChelsea have only lost one of their eight previous home games against French sides in the Champions League (W4 D3), although that was their last such fixture, a 1-2 loss to Paris St-Germain in March 2016. If Chelsea qualify for the knockout stages, Frank Lampard will be the first English manager to take a team successfully through the Champions League group stage - having taken charge of all six group games - since Harry Redknapp with Tottenham in 2010-11.
Belarussian top league . Gorodeya will host team from Grodno. Hosts have a poor shape. And they are motivated to get some points here. Neman did 2 defeats and win at the last 3 games played .

Hosts have a big motivation to leave dangerous zone. I predict a balanced game here. And my bet on hosts for higher odds ! I recommend to try this bet with me in this game !
Rochdale have lost two of their last three away matches. Rochdale have struggled to get this far having to go to replays to get past two non-league sides. Newcastle United fans aren't used to long runs in the FA Cup and haven't got past the fourth round since 2006. This season's campaign got off to a shaky start when they were held to a 1-1 draw away at League One Rochdale.
Arsene Wenger says his "heart" is still with Arsenal and he is happy to talk to interim boss Freddie Ljungberg whenever he wants. Ljungberg, who played under Wenger at Arsenal between 1998 and 2007, took temporary charge at Emirates Stadium after Unai Emery's dismissal last week. And the Swede says he would like to speak to his old boss before his first home game against Brighton on Thursday.
Brno needs to keep close to the league leaders from Pardubice who have won all 5 games played by them after the break while Brno is 4-1-0 after the break only points they lost were in a 0-0 draw at home with Dukla Prague while they won in 10 men away at Varnsdorf with 3-2, won away at Usti nad Labem with 2-1 and away at Listen playing 10 vs 10 men with 2-1 as well while their last home game was a big hit winning with 5-0 at home against a decent Trinec side and I see them likely to win this one.,
I'm not sure since when Hendo is involved in offensive set-pieces, usually for most of the time he was protection, so now we have found a way to involve him as well, and that he scores that goal is obviously incredible," said the German coach. He played an unbelievable game again tonight . While the players were all in "outstanding shape", there was still plenty to improve all round, the demanding Klopp added.

The three wards will be named after the men.

He can play through the defence or over the top, and his distribution, when he is not put under pressure, is very good.

I am little bit surprised that Diriangen is considered as such a big favorite in this match, I mean the difference between these two teams is only 6 points. Diriangen has won 24 points so far, scoring only 14 goals however their defense is amazing allowing only 6 goals. Walter Ferretti on the other side are completely different team, they scored 22 goals but conceding 15 goals so far.

Legia Warszawa will against Cracovia Krakow in match Poland Ekstraklasa. My prediction this match could be the won for Legia Warszawa with margin score is 2 goals. Legia Warszawa have better result on last 3 match in league due to Legia Warszawa have won in 2 match and 1 match is draw. Meanwhile, Cracovia Krakow have also great result on last 3 match in league due to Cracovia Krakow have won in 2 match and 1 match is lose. Nevertheless, I think that Legia Warszawa can beat Cracovia Krakow on this match due to Legia Warszawa more strong in every home match.
The club would like to thank SportPesa for all of the work that has been done together. At Everton's annual general meeting last month, chief executive Denise Barrett-Baxendale said "in an ideal world" the club would prefer a different type of sponsor. Of the Premier League's 20 clubs, 10 teams started the season with betting companies as shirt sponsors.
While it is not immune to controversies over the decisions themselves, hockey officials believe its video system is less intrusive and more transparent than soccer's. In soccer, a video assistant checks key decisions and suggests a VAR review if it appears the pitch referee has got it wrong. Yet many fans complain that goals are disallowed for trivial reasons, often after players and stadium announcers have celebrated.
However, manager Nigel Pearson will be desperately disappointed that his side were unable to reproduce a similar level of performance against Crystal Palace to that which saw them swat the champions-in-waiting aside. The loss of Gerard Deulofeu to a season-ending injury this week comes as a huge blow to the Hornets and Watford's lack of incision against a well-organised defence only served to highlight his absence.
Other targets emerging are Nuno Espirito Santo, Carlo Ancelotti at Napoli, and Manchester City assistant manager Mikel Arteta. Paper Round’s view: Taking Arteta from Manchester City is also a risk, given he has no experience as a head coach and was not an exceptional player in any regard. Santo and Ancelotti have both impressed in the Premier League and perhaps Ancelotti is less attractive given his likely salary demands, and that he is more of a steady hand than a coach to lift a whole side in disarray.
I saw Eupen play away from home at Gent at the start of this season and they found themselves 4-0 down by half-time of the game and eventually lost it with 6-1 in the end conceding two more late goals despite Gent not really attacking that much in the second half. And they also lost in this start of this season with no less than 4-1 at home to this Antwerp side which is fighting for the 2nd place mainly in the league this season.
Pochettino was one of the leading contenders for the United job when Jose Mourinho was sacked in December but the club appointed Solskjaer on an interim basis instead, and named the Norwegian permanent manager in March. Ole is a great guy and he has the club's interests at heart so there's not a better person for the job in my opinion," Rashford told Sky Sports.
Cardiff are looking a little different now, with their recent games limited on goals. Three of their last four have seen a single goal scored, while they come into this clash with back-to-back 1-0 wins behind them. Meanwhile, 56% of Barnsley’s trips have seen them lose by a single goal, while they have failed to score in the same number on their travels. The Tykes are looking a little better in defence after conceding just once in their last two, so a 1-0 home win is our correct score selection.
That's unless they can win the Europa League of course. Sporting have only lost two of their last ten at home and those losses were against the top two of Benfica and Porto. In the Europa League, they have won seven out of their nine home games played in the last couple of years. Only Villarreal and Arsenal have been able to come away with victories.
Liverpool are favorites in this match, however I think Manchester United could remain unbeaten at Anfield. The Red Devils are the only side that escaped the defeat against Liverpool this season. But there is more - Manchester United are unbeaten against the best four teams on the table. The Red Devils won 2:1 against Manchester City, won 1:0 against Leicester and won 4:0 against Chelsea on the opening day. As I wrote above, Solskjaer's men played a draw with Liverpool in the reverse fixture played in October.

The team name and home venue are yet to be decided, but the ownership group has called itself 'Angel City'.
Norwich City's hopes of staying in the Premier League are still alive - but only just. The Canaries host Everton on Wednesday (18:00 BST) live on BBC television - the first half is on BBC Two, the second half on BBC One - and the BBC Sport website, but how much longer will we be able to watch them in the top flight?"I think we are now in the final stages of their fight against the drop," said BBC football expert Mark Lawrenson.
Hosts Bologna have no relegation worries, having bagged 43 points so far and in 12th place but 18th placed Lecce, who have 32 points, need a win here to boost their chances of staying up. Bologna have been on a downward spiral in recent matches, failing to win any of their last five and have no clean sheet in the last 30 league matches.
Hamilton picked up a crucial 2-1 win over bottom side Hearts last time out but had been in terrible form prior to that, with it being their first victory in 12 attempts. The hosts will be hoping that the win can act as a springboard to further improvement but given how weak Hearts have been this season, it's hard to take too much reason for encouragement from it.
Aurora will host Nacional Potosi for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the visitors have better team than their opponent. Nacional Potosi are more ambitious team in this league. They are currently on the 4th place with 27 points. Visitors have an effective attack. In any case, I think, they will try to get the victory on the opposite stadium. Also, we have Aurora who's is one of the main outsiders in this campaign. They are currently on the 12th place with 11 points. Hosts are in poor shape. I think, they have a very difficult task. So, the visitors will try to make a positive result. They probably want to stay among the top 4 teams at the top of the table.
The FA Cup quarter-finals get under way this weekend - finally. One of the teams involved have not reached the last eight since 1992.

Erik Lamela then doubled the advantage on 15 minutes with a powerful run and finish. Jonathan Woodgate's Championship outfit did have their moments but substitute George Saville's smart strike seven minutes from time wasn't enough to stop them from falling to a first loss in seven outings. The Lilywhites, who claimed a much-needed first win in five, will now look forward to a round four clash at Southampton on Saturday January 25.
