The Belgian took his tally to 18 goals in all competitions after scoring twice in a 4-1 Coppa Italia win over Cagliari on Tuesday, once again answering those who said he was not worth the club record 80 million euros ($89. Inter paid for him at the start of the season. Fourteen of those goals have come in Serie A, putting him level with Juventus forward Cristiano Ronaldo and behind only Lazio forward Ciro Immobile who has 20.
Schalke currently sit three places behind Marco Rose's title-challenging Monchengladbach. However, David Wagner's side impressed during the first half of the 2019/20 campaign. They trail Monchengladbach by just five points going into Friday's game.
Newcastle v Aston Villa (18:00 BST)I've said before that I think Newcastle boss Steve Bruce has done a really good job and his side know how to play his system. That's why they are safe already. Sunday's win over Sheffield United essentially secured the Magpies' survival - they are 13th, 11 points above the bottom three with eight games to go. Villa, meanwhile, are still in deep trouble. They have had a bit of a nightmare in their first two games back, and I think they will have to wait a little bit longer for their first win since January.
Ho Chi today will be meeting with the away team Than how and this two teams looking at their last games they have played together we have seen that the home team is having a very big advantage to win this game as they have won many games as compared to the away team

People can shoot me down, but surely we want to be sustainable," she said. I look at the NWSL that collapsed twice because of the wages and paying people astronomical money. I love this game so much and I want to grow and to grow organically. We still make millions and millions pounds of loss so I think we have a great league, I think the best players are coming here so I would assess whether we need to increase that or not.
The Europa League awaits both sides if they finish third in their group.

But the game was extremely open, with play racing from end to end, and Greg Docherty warmed the palms of McCrorie with a shot that looked destined for the net. Midway through the opening half, Hibs were handed a golden chance to take the lead. A Boyle cross came off the outstretched arm of Taylor-Sinclair, with Alan Newlands immediately pointing to the spot.

Le Mans last cup game was a Coupe de la Ligue defeat at the hands of PSG (1-4) but they'll be hoping to make a better showing of themselves here. Despite the loss to the capital club, les Mucistes are in good form with three wins in their last four games. Nine goals have been scored by Le Mans in this time but the quality of opposition has been rather suspect and they could be in for a surprise here as they face Ligue 1 Bordeaux. Two of Le Mans' recent wins came against the two clubs propping up the Ligue 2 table, Paris FC and Orléans. They also beat Les Herbiers in the process but considering that they play in the fourth tier of France, this is nothing really to shout about.
Any hopes of Stevenage enjoying a promising campaign, much as they did last season, are now long gone and have been for some time. Tuesday's hosts are in a desperate position. They're bottom of the table, are six points from safety and haven't won any of their last ten matches. They have at least drawn seven of those ten, which indicates that they're getting tougher to beat, though they desperately need to regain the winning thread if they're to avoid being caught too far behind.
But the assistant referee kept his flag down and VAR proved he was correct to do so as Villa avoided defeat at Old Trafford for the first time since 2009. Villa skipper Jack Grealish gave his side a deserved lead with a magnificent curling shot after 11 minutes only for United to equalise against the run of play just before the interval when a Marcus Rashford header hit the inside of a post before bouncing in off the back of former United keeper Tom Heaton.
Waasland Beveren and Kortrijk will face each other in the upcoming match in the Jupiler League. Waasland Beveren this season have the following results: 5W, 5D and 14L. Meanwhile Kortrijk have 7W, 5D and 12L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Of those surveyed, 81% felt that supporters should see the incident under review at the same time as the officials, while 80% felt referees should be encouraged to use the pitchside monitors. Currently the advice to Premier League officials is to use these sparingly and trust in the guidance of the VAR, with a view to making a quicker decision. Smith added: "Despite much social media hysteria, our research shows that a large majority of those watching the games actually want to see it reformed over a complete removal.
The one thing Central Coast have going for them is that they’ve managed to find the net in each game so far this season and, with that in mind, we’re backing them to do the same again in our correct score tip. We think Western United will run out 3-1 winners with the home side likely to start quickly but fade as things wear on, leaving Western United to take over and claim another impressive away win. They’ve got the firepower to score three against inferior opposition but still look a little susceptible to a quick break and a 3-1 scoreline seems fair.

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says Saturday's derby at Manchester City is a chance to turn "doubt into belief" for his side. Following their worst start to a season since 1988, United beat Tottenham in midweek to go sixth in the top flight. We're going away against arguably the best team in England," said Solskjaer, whose side are eight points from fourth in the Premier League. It will be a difficult game but we need consistency.

You look for ability when they are really young but now it's all about the mental attitude," said Owen. He has grown into his frame, he won't get much quicker now so it's all about what's going on between the ears. As long as he keeps going on this path at the right club that have nurtured so many youngsters, you would think all is in place. There is no question he will be a top player for a long time.
There are also questions over what Real will do, with Zidane's selection complicated by the absence of the injured Eden Hazard - a certain starter if fit. Like Barca, Real usually set up in a 4-3-3 and have two of Gareth Bale, Rodrygo and Vinicius Junior alongside the in-form Karim Benzema up front. However, in the recent Champions League meeting with Paris St-Germain, Zidane reverted to a midfield diamond with the lesser-seen Isco at the tip.

GLADBACH SANCTIONS Borussia Moenchengladbach could face sanctions after their fans unfurled several offensive banners aimed at Hoffenheim investor Dietmar Hopp, including one showing his face in the crosshairs, in their 1-1 league draw on Saturday.

Fernandinho's defending looked even more valuable when, a few minutes later, the captain Kevin De Bruyne’s imaginative cross on the turn was headed in by Gabriel Jesus. It was not the most convincing of headers, and the Real keeper Thibaut Courtois may struggle to sleep tonight. De Bruyne then scored from the penalty spot after Dani Carvajal was penalised for a brainless tackle on the substitute Raheem Sterling.
Lawro's prediction: 1-2Richard's prediction: 0-2 Everton v BurnleyI wonder what new Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti was thinking when he was watching his side's 0-0 draw with Arsenal last weekend?Ancelotti probably realises now just how big a job he has got on his hands, and Burnley are tricky opponents for his first game back in the Premier League.

Jurgen Klopp made 11 changes from the European champions' last Premier League outing at Wolves, but they had seemed to be in cruise control after teenager Curtis Jones's opener was followed by an own goal by Donald Love at the very start of the second half. However, the top-flight leaders became complacent and Shrewsbury belied the 59-place gap between the sides to take full advantage.

But amidst the euphoria on Sunday, Solskjaer was right to offer a reminder that there is still a long way to go before United can be viewed as genuine title rivals to Liverpool and City. A creative midfielder and another attacking option would give United greater potential with the ball whilst it would not be a surprise to see Solskjaer look to add another central defender to challenge Victor Lindelof for the role alongside skipper Harry Maguire.
In a statement, the European governing body said: " In the light of the ongoing developments in the spread of COVID-19 across Europe and the changing analysis of the World Health Organisation, UEFA has invited representatives of its 55 member associations, together with the boards of the European Club Association and the European Leagues and a representative of FIFPro, to attend meetings by videoconference on Tuesday 17 March to discuss European football's response to the outbreak.
I think the lack of recognition for his talents does get to him," says BBC World Service Sport's John Bennett. Back in January, L'Equipe published their shortlist of 15 strikers for its 2018 World XI. Benzema was nowhere to be seen and he took to social media, writing 'hey L'Equipe, my friends. Am I maybe 16th?'. Sadly off-field controversies will probably mean he never gets the credit he deserves, certainly in France.
The outbreak has already cost India its only European Tour golf event, a shooting World Cup and a BWF Super 500 badminton tournament.

Aulas claimed last season's final placings should be used to determine next season's European participants; Eyraud disagreed.

With Arsenal in 10th place in the Premier League and Manchester United below Sheffield United in seventh, the status of the Big Six as the division's dominant forces has rarely felt under such threat. The Gunners are three points closer to the relegation zone than the Champions League places and the Blades, Wolves and Leicester are seriously threatening the status quo. So are we set for the end of the Big Six era? Has it actually been better than what went before it? And would a new power dynamic at the top be a good thing? When there was a Big Five off the pitch - but not on itIt's 30 years since plans to set up the Premier League were hatched at a clandestine dinner, with those culinary machinations attended by the 'Big Five' clubs of the 1980s: Liverpool, Everton, Arsenal, Tottenham and Manchester United.
