Real need this win, in order to keep the safe place in the first playoff spot of the table, sand to get into the playoff quarterfinals. They should be able to beat this rival, since away squad practically gave up this competition a month ago. Chinandega have lost all of their recent ten games, and they are just waiting for the league to finish.
Both sides need points but for different reasons. Villa need them to boost their relegation battle, while Spurs are desperate to get into the top four. Consistency in terms of results isn't a strong point for either of these sides. Between them they have scored 72 goals and conceded 79, a bet on both teams to score in this match looks to be one that can be a winner.
While the hosts aren’t picking up wins in their home games, they are in impressive scoring form. Lecce have found the net twice in each of their last four at home, while they’ve scored twice in five of their last seven overall. To make that run even more impressive, Lecce have scored their last seven Serie A goals via seven different goalscorers.
They now face a monumental challenge to appease supporters. UEFA immediately moved to reassure ticket holders, saying they would be offered a full refund if they could not attend the 2021 tournament. They will communicate this in the next month. But what about fans who have already forked out hundreds – perhaps thousands – of euros on travel and accommodation? With the lure of attending a major international tournament, many supporters will have paid inflated prices to get to their Euro 2020 matches.
The former AC Milan midfielder was also serenaded by samba percussionists as well as fans waving Japanese flags as he arrived to join the Brazilian club. Honda, who played for CSKA Moscow and AC Milan in a globe-trotting career, signed from Vitesse Arnhem last week. Local media reported that it was an 11-month deal.

Saint-Étienne have created the third least chances in Ligue 1 since Puel's arrival but they have been efficiently scoring despite this with eight goals in the six games under the Frenchman. However, they did draw a blank in both their last two games and we feel this is their lack of chance creation catching up to them which could hinder them in this game.
Meanwhile, West Ham United leapt out of the bottom three with a 3-1 win over Southampton. A few thousand Hammers' fans marched outside the London Stadium before the game, protesting at the club's owners, but their mood was lightened as Jarrod Bowen, the £22 million January signing, marked his full debut with a fine goal.

Nuno Espirito SantoCurrent job: Wolves head coachPrevious teams managed: Rio Ave, Valencia, PortoMajor trophies won: NonePortuguese Nuno, 45, has built up a fantastic reputation in two and a half seasons with Wolves. He helped the West Midlands club to the Championship title in his first season, before guiding them into Europe for the first time since 1980 - playing some excellent football on the way.
Your favourite player growing up was Real Madrid's Marcelo. It was a dream for me to play alongside him, like it was when I signed for Real Madrid. I signed when I was young; I didn't believe it when they called me. As a young player, I looked up to Marcelo because he plays in the same position as me. He laughs all the time too; when he plays, he enjoys it. I want to be like him. You play in lots of different positions, what's your favourite? I think I like the right-back role - but I like to go on the attack all the time.

He has hammered me a few times but he has been brilliant with me. For the first time in eight years, I have been treated like a proper man. When you are captain, you do as you are told. If you are treated like a man and with respect, then you reciprocate that. Pearson is more than just a strict disciplinarian, though. He is also an emotionally intelligent, shrewd man manager capable of assessing the needs of his squad - especially in the short-term, when points have been paramount - and tailoring his approach accordingly.
Posted at 58' Foul by James Tarkowski (Burnley). Posted at 57' Foul by Scott Dann (Crystal Palace). Posted at 57' Matej Vydra (Burnley) wins a free kick in the defensive half. There is "evident bias" in some football commentary relating to the skin tone of players, according to a new study. In 80 televised games analysed across four European leagues, including the Premier League, players with a lighter skin tone were praised more often for their intelligence and work ethic.
Sydney FC have won seven of their nine away league games this season. Sydney FC lead the table by ten points with two games in hand. Western Sydney Wanderers have only one win in their last seven home league games. Football is still carrying on in Australia and A-League leaders Sydney FC are in a local derby.
Read the full story 09:30 - City's Walker faces disciplinary action Manchester City defender Kyle Walker faces disciplinary action from the Premier League champions after tabloid the Sun said he breached Britain's lockdown rules by hosting a party during the coronavirus pandemic. City's statement read: "Manchester City FC are aware of a story in a tabloid newspaper regarding the private life of Kyle Walker in relation to a breach of the UK lockdown and social distancing rules.
Everton brought in Brands in May 2018, shortly before Silva's arrival as manager, after huge success at PSV Eindhoven. Such was his early impact that he was appointed to the board in January 2019 and, according to chief executive Denise Barrett-Baxendale, was responsible for the "whole football strategy". This dynamic surely shifts, even with subtlety, with Ancelotti coming in. It is clear this move is driven by the ambition of Moshiri and it is likely such a significant and influential figure as Ancelotti will want to exert more power, understandably, than the understated Silva.
I decided to portray monkeys to talk about racism because they are the metaphor for human beings. Last year I was at the stadium to see Inter v Napoli [a match in which Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly was racially abused] and I felt humiliated, everyone was shouting 'monkey' at Koulibaly, a player I respect. I've always been painting monkeys for five to six years, so I thought I'd make this work to teach that we're all apes.
We actually think the Clarets can get the three points too. Burnley haven’t drawn any of their last 16 home league games and have won half of them. Meanwhile, Manchester United have lost seven of their last 13 league away fixtures. Burnley have scored 1.44 goals per home game this season and have kept five clean sheets, and given Man Utd have failed to score in four of their last seven on the road we like the look of a 1-0 correct score prediction.
Likewise for Germany, too. Bayern will have revenge on the mind when facing Chelsea, while Bundesliga leaders RB Leipzig will not fear a Tottenham side who lost 10-3 on aggregate to Bayern over two group-stage matches. Of course, the name that falls under the winners’ column will ultimately dictate which nation had a year to celebrate in Europe.
Feyenoord have scored 19 goals at home but have conceded 13 times while Heerenveen have scored 17 times on the road (more than in their own backyard) and have conceded 12 goals, adding further weight to our prediction for plenty of goals to be scored this weekend. Feyenoord have scored in both halves in 33% of their home games while Heerenveen have netted in both halves of their away games 50% of the time, so we not only expect goals at both ends of the pitch but also in both halves as well.
But far more likely is a shift back to 2021. This would open a window for the domestic leagues to complete their seasons this summer, when restrictions created by coronavirus have hopefully eased. Why does finishing the season matter?To a greater or lesser degree all European leagues have television contracts that need to be met. If they are not, the potential for having to reimburse the TV channels their money is enormous.

We don't need a player to get racially abused before we say 'what are we going to do?'"As a 56-year-old black man, who not too long ago it happened to me again, we're in a time now where something's happening, something's changing and that's what's good about it. The Premier League have come out and made their statements and once they've made their statements you can then hold them to that and that's what you couldn't do before.

They are seven points above the drop zone and a mid table target could be realistic for them. Norwich will have an unidentified player unavailable after testing positive for coronavirus but they should have all other players available for this clash save for Sam Byram who is injured. They registered a win over Tottenham in a friendly match and this should be a good boost.
This result paired with their 4-0 drubbing of Nîmes last week has got the momentum back on Lyon's side and they'll be looking to take that into this clash with Rennes. They've now lost just one of their last four matches and sit within three points of third. Les Gones' home form has been a particularly contributive factor to their recent success as they've won three of their last five matches at the Groupama with their aforementioned draw with Leipzig thrown in there for good measure. Les Gones have scored nine goals and conceded five in that time.

Also, was Benitez's title at Real Madrid not coach? So, by the very definition of his job as coach it should be no big deal if the coach of a team coached one of the players on said team to become a better taker of free kicks? Yet, here we are a full four years later still banging on about whether Benitez coached Ronaldo.

75% of Frankfurt’s home games have produced over 2.5 goals and 62% have seen both teams score, while 50% of Guimaraes’ away games have produced over 2.5 goals and 83% have seen both teams score, all of which back up our prediction for a 2-1 Frankfurt victory. Frankfurt have only kept clean sheets in 25% of their home games and Guimaraes are yet to keep a clean sheet in the road but have scored in each of their last five away matches in the Primeira Liga. A majority of Frankfurt’s wins this season have been obtained with a one-goal margin, three to be exact, and that is why we have decided to go with a narrow 2-1 scoreline in their favour on Thursday.
