Palace, who drew four of their last six games, scored exactly one goal in three of their last four on home turf, while Arsenal have averaged just 1.0 goal per 90 minutes across their last seven Premier League away tussles.
Both Milan and Juventus are coming from losses and this being a cup game, we expect to see the two sides going all out. Milan capitulated in the second half of their loss to Inter as Juventus also fell late to Hellas Verona and the two will be hoping that doesn’t occur again. Juventus have two straight losses away from home but they remain a formidable side with a great run over Milan. The hosts Milan have not kept very many clean sheets recently, but they have a good run at home. However, we don’t feel it will be easy to down this Juventus team that has dominated them and also been good in the Coppa Italia. We expect a draw here to set the tempo for the second leg.
Conor Hourihane scored his fifth goal of the season in all competitions, but this was his first at Villa Park. Aston Villa ended their 12-game winless run against Newcastle in the league, with this their first victory against the Magpies since a 1-0 win in April 2011. Newcastle conceded two goals in a league game against Aston Villa for the first time since February 2008 (a 4-1 defeat) - indeed, Villa scored as many goals as they managed in their previous seven encounters against the Magpies.
Jong AZ and Graafschap will face each other in the upcoming match in the Eerste Divisie. Jong AZ this season have the following results: 3W, 4D and 8L. Meanwhile Graafschap have 9W, 6D and 0L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Another of Dortmund's highly-rated young talents, England forward Jadon Sancho, was restricted to an 11-minute cameo off the bench, because of a calf injury. On-loan Everton full-back Jonjoe Kenny started for Schalke, who brought on Wales winger Rabbi Matondo as one of their five substitutes - two more than usual are permitted under the new regulations for the Bundesliga's restart. There were 30 match balls placed around the stadium, each of them disinfected by ball-boys who placed them on special spots rather than giving them directly to the players The South Stand at Signal Iduna Park holds 25,000 fans and is the biggest free-standing grandstand in Europe.
There are 7,697 chartered managers. Comments on Twitter under a link posted by the BBC to their website story were largely hostile. This is ridiculous - as a female football fan, this kind of presumption that women either don't like football or would want others to stop talking about something we're not interested in is ridiculous," commented @LaurenD1905.
We did it for him, as a manager. You almost well up when you think about it. He was that kind of manager. My whole approach to life could be boiled down to 101 seconds of injury time" Even Ferguson, who had started to accept defeat, didn’t quite realise the power of the culture he had created. But he knew exactly what he had created – a football team that doubled up as a mirror.
To have only dropped two points by Christmas is just phenomenal, and everyone knows it. There is a fear now of Liverpool, and especially of their second-half displays. Teams know that if they do not take their chances against them, then they are going to come back and punish you - as late as it takes. The number of injury-time winners they have had in 2019 - Roberto Firmino's goal to sink Monterrey in the semi-finals of the Club World Cup was their sixth this year - will play on the opposition's minds too.
Dijon will be eyeing up this record with great intrigue but they have their own problems to attend to before they focus on the cracks in Montpellier's armour. The Mustards have won just two of their last seven games in all competitions and currently sit third from bottom in Ligue 1. However, like Montpellier, Dijon have also had a pattern with location playing so much into how their perform.

Just as he promised, Mourinho picked the England man, who slotted into the middle of a three-man central defence that also included Toby Alderweireld and Davinson Sanchez. Equally predictable were the Burnley fans' unsavoury chants against him, or more accurately, his brother. Before and afterwards, the Tottenham fans sang in support of the 26-year-old. It was just Dier's luck that when he really wanted a quiet game, it was his clearance that resulted in Burnley's first-half goal.
That reprieve proved vital for Spurs, with Christian Eriksen equalising from a free-kick ten minutes into the second half, before more poor Spurs defending allowed Norwich to retake the lead six minutes later as Serge Aurier put through his own net. The visitors were not done there though, as Kane won the penalty before marking his 200th Premier League appearance with a crucial goal that earned Spurs a point and moves Jose Mourinho's side up to fifth in the table.
Grasshopper against Aarau in match Switzerland Challenge League. My prediction this match could be won for Grasshopper with margin score is 1 goal. Grasshopper have good result on last 3 match in league due to Grasshopper have won in 1 match and 2 match is draw. Meanwhile, Aarau have also good result on last 3 match in league due to Aarau have won in 1 match, 1 match is draw and 1 match is lose. Nevertheless, my prediction that Grasshopper can defeat Aarau due to Grasshopper always have good result in every home match. Moreover Grasshopper only have draw in 2 match and 3 match is won on last 5 match in the home.
The win sees United climb to fifth spot, five points off a Champions League spot, while the Canaries remain bottom of the table. TALKING POINT Juan Mata on the right flank was a masterstroke. The Spaniard started his first league game in six weeks and in the unusual position on the right flank. And it proved to be the difference.
In football you need to look to make life difficult for the opponent," added the former Argentina midfielder. We play to win, with the weapons that we have. We respect our identity, the characteristics of our players and we exploit the defects of our rivals. On BT Sport, pundit Michael Owen criticised Atletico's approach, saying "there is nothing ingenious about just setting up your team to defend", but Kieran Trippier, the Spanish side's former Tottenham right-back, said players love playing for Simeone.
He knew if he was prepared to go into battle wherever he felt it would benefit the club, others would join him because they would realise it was being done for the right motives. And the more players joined, the more a family atmosphere was created. Barriers were broken down. According to a club source, it was at Arteta's suggestion that a room was built for players' families, who would gather there for three hours or more at the end of a game.
The majority of the people at the conference are from academies so that gives me hope that in the next 10-15 years attitudes will change. But I'm counselling and a psychotherapist to many elite footballers that tell me that problems with bullying, homophobia and racism occur as much today as they ever have done. There is a huge amount of work to do and thankfully, there will be more and more people like me embedded in football clubs and we can normalise those coffee machine chats and get away from the stigma of having a psychotherapist in clubs means there is something wrong.
It’s a million to one shot! Inevitably, Maguire would go on to contribute a key moment, thumping in an excellent header to make it 2-0 in the second-half, after Anthony Martial’s more delicate but similarly excellent header in the first. Chelsea themselves had their own grapples with VAR, having two goals disallowed by the eye in the sky: one fairly as Olivier Giroud’s foot was offside – in the scheme of these decisions this season as clear as they come – the other not so, as Cesar Azpilicueta was penalised for pushing Brandon Williams despite having been pushed himself by Fred.
The problem is that there are plenty of examples where managers and clubs appear to have taken the initiative and done the right thing, Leeds United as an example. So ideally you want other high-profile figures to take note and follow suit, but it’s trickier because there’s no obvious body who should take the lead on this.
The hosts are bottom of Group F, but things could have turned out very differently had they held on to their lead in San Siro in the opening round of matches. Slavia have failed to win since, but they have proved to be a test for every side in the group so far. Will they push the Nerazzurri in their final home match in the group stage?
Cartagines have recently had no wins and 2 draw in the last 3 league matches. They have scored 3 goals and conceded 4 goal in the last 5 league matches. At home they managed to win one and lose 1 of their last 2 league games scoring 3 goals and conceding 4.
