Hampden will be able to stage rearranged Euro 2020 games next summer and Glasgow is not one of three host cities whose involvement is in doubt. Uefa president Aleksander Ceferin said three of the 12 venues had "issues". And reports in Germany claimed Glasgow was one of those unable to hold games initially scheduled for next month. But Scotland's largest city is not one of those and Uefa have been told that it will fulfil its commitment to hold three group games and one last-16 tie.
Opava is playing with a bad form right now. The home team has only 18 points through 25 rounds. They are even less than the away team by 1 round. Currently, Opava is ranked 16th in the rankings. In total, they brought only 4 wins, 6 draws and 15 losses. In the last 10 matches, they won 5 wins, drew 1 match and up to 4 losses. With their current performance, they had to set their sights high on this battle. Home advantage is what they need to promote.

It was different to anything that I have been used to. I’ve played at full-back but I’ve never played there before. I just tried to do my best for the team and thankfully we got the win in the end. I don’t know what will happen with Virgil on Saturday. Fingers crossed he will be OK. Of course, if the manager needed me to go there again, I would do it.
Santa Clara’s away games produced an average of 1.71 total goals, adding further weight to our prediction of under 2.5 goals being scored in Saturday’s clash. In fact, over 2.5 goals have only been scored in 25% of Guimaraes’ home games and in 14% of Santa Clara’s away games, which suggests that under 2.5 goals are more likely to be scored this weekend.
Currently, there is no other player or staff member giving symptoms of the new coronavirus infectious disease other than Gotoku Sakai,” the club said in a statement. In correspondence with the instructions of the public health centre, we are looking at identifying those in close contact and the complete sterilization of the "Ibuki" training facilities.
A return to the Champions League is looking likely but Leicester's fomr has slipped a bit of late. They have lost three of their last five games in all competitons with the only wins coming at Brentford in the FA Cup last weekend and a 4-1 home win over West Ham United. Only one point had been earned from City's previous three home league games, so this isn't the dominant side that we saw earlier in the season.
Newcastle have had one or fewer shots on target in seven Premier League games this season - their most in a top-flight season since 2006-07 (8). This was Brighton's 11th goalless draw in the Premier League; no other side has had more since they were promoted to the division in 2017. Newcastle kept a clean sheet for the first time since June; they had shipped 10 goals in their previous three Premier League matches.
Rangers have not won away against a Dutch side since beating PSV Eindhoven 1-0 in September 1999, drawing one and losing two since. Feyenoord have kept a clean sheet in five of their last eight Europa League home matches, winning all five of those games but failing to win any of the three games in which they've conceded. Rangers are winless in their last eight Uefa Cup/Europa League away games, drawing five times, since beating Sporting Lisbon 2-0 in April 2008.
Newcastle improved and after Miguel Almiron struck the post, they equalised when Fabian Schar fired home a volley from Andy Carroll's nod-down. But six minutes after setting up the equaliser, Carroll's mistake led to Everton's winner. Theo Walcott dispossessed the striker and played a pass out wide to Richarlison. The Brazilian sped down the right and delivered an excellent low cross for Calvert-Lewin, who slid in and scrambled home.
I won't give up, I'll never stop raising my voice. I'll always raise my voice, but in relation to this, I'm alone," he said. It's a disaster. I became a father last Thursday and you start thinking society hasn't come far enough in fighting racism so my kids will probably suffer as well. If nothing changes, if kids don't get good education and parenting, we'll lose.

TV comes in and they can earn good money doing that. But it is great to see those four working and doing so well. Rooney says his own management aspirations will be on hold during his 18-month stint at Championship side Derby, even 'though he is officially a player-coach in support of manager Phillip Cocu. He started to think about his post-playing career when he was at Manchester United and feels his role at Pride Park will indulge his passion for discussing the game.
Neither of these teams are proving themselves very defensively capable this season though, and with Tottenham averaging 2.37 goals per home game and conceding 0.87 per game we think a 2-1 correct score prediction is a good choice.
They left it late - again - but Liverpool are into the final of the Club World Cup after beating Mexican side Monterrey on Wednesday. The Reds began with Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane and Trent Alexander-Arnold on the bench, Virgil van Dijk absent altogether through illness and midfielder Jordan Henderson deputising at centre-back. But while Liverpool's starting line-up was unfamiliar, the eventual outcome was not.
Stuttgart have the best home record in the Bundesliga II. Osnabruck have only one win in their last five away league matches. Stuttgart have only conceded 11 home league goals all season. Stuttgart remained in second place in the Bundesliga II after a 2-0 win at Dinamo Dresden. They look for another three points when hosting Osnabruck who are 14th and only two points above the relegation zone.
The Switzerland midfielder had a public spat with the Arsenal fans earlier this season, storming down the tunnel after being jeered off the pitch when substituted. Xhaka started against Bournemouth on Boxing Day but was omitted from the squad to face Chelsea, fueling rumours of his imminent departure, but Arteta appears ready to welcome him back into the team.
On a simple, surface level, stripping Premier League seasons of their final nine games inevitably leads to the loss of many of the division's defining moments. The most obvious example being the one that usually tops most people's "greatest" list - Sergio Aguero's winner against QPR from practically the final kick of the 2011-12 season. As well as losing perhaps the most dramatic single moment in the league's history, ending that season with nine games left would also likely have denied City their maiden Premier League title, handed the trophy to Sir Alex Ferguson's side and altered the course of history.

A little bit. Doesn’t it feel good to be good? Video - 'Change rules so penalties are easier for goalkeepers'05:06 Arsenal players reportedly vote against pay cut At this point we’re frankly a little confused about where to be morally, on the subject of Premier League players’ pay. Of course, it is unfair that footballers should be unfairly singled out by anyone when there are plenty of people who earn more than they need, and others are suffering with nothing.

I was like, 'I think the answer is yes to that one. Of course you can,'" He was very respectful to ask," Critchley told reporters. He has achieved so much in the game because of who he is; he was giving words of advice to the players, he was getting right behind them, he was vocal in the dressing room and animated behind me.
Under Jurgen Klopp, and with a bit of initial tweaking from Brendan Rodgers, he has worked out his role in this team and never tries to do too much. Klopp’s team-based system suits him perfectly, it never demands too much from one individual and allows the collective to thrive thanks to the work of each member.

I cannot really remember a season recently when Fylkir finished in the top half of the league table as they are usually a relegation candidate and last season they lost big both games with their opponents today losing with 4-1 at home and also even bigger with 5-1 here, but it is the start of the new season and there is no clear dominating side in this league and Fylkir did score in both games last season with this side so a surprise could perhaps happen as both have been decent in the games played before the season started.

Big Bullets are ranked 8th on the Ranking Table, they still have many chances to reach the championship round when they are only 2 points behind the 6th place team. This match is therefore important to Big Bullets. Especially in the context that they are playing at home. It should be remembered that at the previous meeting on the Blue eagles Malawi field, Big Bullets won. Thus, that rate is clearly very positive. On the opposite side, Malawi's Blue eagles are proving extremely dangerous on the away field with a record of 2 wins away from home recently. Good luck
Hector Bellerin scored a late equaliser as Arsenal came from behind twice following David Luiz’s first-half red card to secure a 2-2 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. See alsoChelsea v Arsenal – Premier League as it happened Chelsea had Shkodran Mustafi to thank for their lead after the Arsenal centre-back’s stinker of a performance saw him give the ball away in dangerous areas on countless occasions before making the crucial mistake that led to his defensive partner’s sending off, and the 28th minute penalty, that Jorginho converted, which appeared to set Chelsea on their way to a rare home win.
St Mirren lost their 3rd game on the bounce during the week, losing 3-0 to Motherwell in Paisley. This latest defeat means the Jim Goodwin's side remains bottom of the league and without any signs of improvement.

The Midlands side could do with continuing their decent run of recent weeks as they hope to get back into a position in the top half. 11 losses this season haven’t helped the side progress, but they have shown promising signs at points with the likes of Josh Gordon and Wes McDonald looking like they could be gamechangers at times. They need to be more positive however and increase the amount of goals they score if they have hopes of a top half finish.
The Spaniard, who twice won the tournament when in charge of Barcelona but who has not got past the quarter-finals with City, added: "We have the chance to close the group stage. We have to do our best to go to Zagreb [for the last game] with the job done. City will be without back-up goalkeeper Claudio Bravo, who was sent off in the 1-1 draw against Italian side Atalanta as defender Kyle Walker had to end the game in goal.
Roberto Firmino (Liverpool) header from the centre of the box misses to the left. Assisted by Jordan Henderson with a cross. Liverpool's victory over Sheffield United means they have a place in history as one of a select group of teams to have gone a year unbeaten in the Premier League.

So the natural leader in the changing room, because of his values and what he represented, was Granit Xhaka. There was a vote to see if what I felt about him was also felt by the players. And it was. Circumstances meant Xhaka had a clash with fans [he was booed off the pitch when being substituted during October's home draw with Crystal Palace], but he is the leader that this team needs then and now, because of the values he represents, because of the respect everyone had for him and because of his experience.
