I am not writing the Cherries off, though. It wouldn't surprise me if they and Villa swapped places with Watford and West Ham, and those two went down. Newcastle v Tottenham (18:00 BST)Newcastle have lost their past two games, against Manchester City and Watford, and they are safe in mid-table with not a great deal to play for. Tottenham won the north London derby at the weekend, but to say it was a unconvincing victory is probably the fairest way of summing it up.

Conte was confident their Argentine international striker Lautaro Martinez would not be distracted by media speculation that Barcelona are interested in signing him. The lad has a good head on his shoulders, he is focused, he's doing well and must continue like that," said the coach. He still has plenty of room to improve.
It was an unbelievable day. I have to say fair play to Aston Villa, they gave us a really good game. When I play, every minute counts, so I try and do my best and I’m very proud of my performance today. You look at players like Kevin de Bruyne and David Silva, who are great, so when I get into the team I have to make the most of it.
Aston Villa's Jack Grealish has won more fouls this season (131) than any other player in a single Premier League campaign since Opta started recording such data (1998-99). No goalkeeper has kept more Premier League clean sheets this season than Sheffield United's Dean Henderson (11, also Burnley's Nick Pope). Conor Hourihane created seven chances for his Aston Villa teammates in this game, the joint most by a Villa player in a Premier League game this season (Jack Grealish also seven vs Southampton in December 2019).
Lara will be meeting with the away team Puerto and this game looking at it in a very good way we have seen that giving the home team a win or a draw is a very sure bet as this teams looking at their meeting the home team have won many games as compared to the away team and so this making us to be very sure with this prediction
This game will be full of tricks, the host Slavia Mozyr has conceded at least a goal in their last 3 league games played so far. With 2 straight winnings they come into this game aiming to continue on the positive run, after starting the league very bad losing to FC Slutsk 1-3 on the road, they mend it up with 2 victories against Bate Borisov 2-1 and Dinamo Brest at away 2-1.
Forest Green have scored 17 goals on the road this season and have only conceded 9 times while Mansfield have hit the back of the net 18 times in their own backyard but have conceded 23 goals, and one of the reasons we have gone with a double chance bet on Forest Green is down to the visitors decent defensive record on the road. Forest Green have kept clean sheets in 46% of their away games but both teams have scored in 54% of Mansfield’s home games which is why we have predicted a final score of 1-1.
If we can get through Christmas and the chairman can give me four or five players to strengthen the squad, then we'll do extremely well," Hodgson said. We've talked about it for a long time so maybe this is the transfer window we'll get them. Palace next travel to Southampton on Saturday and their busy festive period ends with a game at struggling Norwich City four days later.
We had an excellent position in the table which we have now lost," he added, after Eintracht, Europa League semi-finalists last season, dropped to 13th. We have very often got ourselves into trouble. MUELLER ON TARGET FOR ASSISTS RECORD Bayern Munich forward Thomas Mueller has provided a record 11 assists in the first half of the season, the most recent for Joshua Zirkzee in the 2-0 win over VfL Wolfsburg on Saturday, according to Bundesliga statistics.
It's a big win, we know there are big games to come and every game is tough," Villa boss Dean Smith said. Watford manager Nigel Pearson added: "Maybe this is a reality check if people thought the hard work had been done and it shows how quickly things can change. Bournemouth ended a woeful run of four defeats and 450 minutes without a league goal as Harry Wilson and Callum Wilson were both on the scoresheet in a 3-1 home win over a Brighton & Hove Albion side who are two points above the drop zone.

The new season has started this weekend in South Korea, but there are no spectators yet. Pohang missed fourth place last season because of the poorer goal difference and couldn't qualify for AFC Cup, but this year they have much higher expectations. Busan was second in League 2, made the playoffs and then prevailed in the promotion games. Avoiding relegation is clearly their goal, so the team is certainly an underdog. Pohang is a very solid team at home as proven by the end of the last season or they are on a current streak of 7 games without defeat at home. Busan has done well for them, they have only experienced one defeat in last 7h2h games.

There may be phases behind closed doors. Finishing the league with the table as it is now is an injustice. For next season we will talk about a format if it is affected by the delaying of the current campaign. The Spanish FA president said the Copa del Rey final could take place next season if necessary.
I said we had every chance and we were good enough. I said I'd been to a Uefa Cup final and lost and while it's not nice it was an incredible journey and I'd do anything to get there again. We had to seize the moment. That was the motivation and there was Roy in the background with a smirk on his face. We went out and did what we had to do, winning 3-2. Each chapter en route to Hamburg tells a different story.
At 1-0 you're always in the game. It certainly wasn't a corner but we've got to defend it better. It's a mountain to climb from there, but they certainly started climing the mountain and we got a great goal. I'm very proud of them, but that's the sort of performance we need to put in week in, week out.
We’re confident that a double chance bet on Mansfield will payout this weekend and we have predicted that the game will end in a 1-1 draw. Mansfield’s away form has been good this season and they head into Saturday’s clash with more time to prepare for the game due to Swindon’s midweek FA Cup reply. The hosts top the table and have twelve more points on the board than their guest which is why we couldn’t back an outright win for the visitors this weekend, but the double chance bet covers us if Mansfield do go on to secure all three points on Saturday.
Athletic Club have one win in 19 matches against Real Madrid. Athletic Club have one win in eight away La Liga matches this season. Real Madrid are unbeaten in eight matches against Athletic Club.

Chelsea will try to replace the goalscoring and creativity of Eden Hazard in the January transfer window, says boss Frank Lampard. The Blues discovered last week that their two-window transfer ban has been halved, meaning they can sign players next month. Lampard was speaking after his side beat Lille 2-1 to reach the Champions League last 16. There will be discussions about where we can strengthen," said Lampard.
Given the bright start Al Ittihad had to this season I would really not recommend betting against them, that was a couple of weeks ago as at this moment they have lost 3 games in a row starting with a 4-0 loss at Al Ahly followed by a 1-0 loss at home to El Ismaily and also same score defeat at home 1-0 to Arab Contractors, so really lacking a clear goal scorer at this moment and their defense is not really that great either while their confidence for sure must have taken a blow after 3 defeats in a row.

Although Almeria had to make a trip to third-ranked team in the last round, Alcorcon successfully defeated the opponent with a score of 1-0 to climb to 9th place in the rankings. That victory is also the third victory in the last 5 rounds of teachers and teachers Fran Fernandez, the chance of reaching the group to play off the promotion is still when the gap with the 6th ranked team is only 2 points.
That happened despite an early setback. Kilmarnock started brightly and forced early corners with Nicke Kabamba going close but his shot was blocked. However, their persistence paid off. Jozo Simunovic dived in rashly but didn't win the ball cleanly. His attempts to recover resulted in Brophy being impeded inside the area and the Scotland forward tucked away the spot-kick impressively. As that goal went in, St Johnstone scored against Rangers in Perth to ease the pain for Celtic fans - and soon things got even better.
They have won eight of their 16 home league matches this season and also have eight clean sheets in the 16 games. Burnley have scored one goal or less in 10 of the 16 home league matches.

Kopetdag Asgabat is in need of a win here in order for them to heals they have sustained in their last two games, they have lost their last game at this venue after they hosted Ahal fc, they conceded one goal which means they have a strong defense.
In all respects, direct, indirect, statistical... this game should end in a goalless draw, or with a score of one to one. For some reason, I am absolutely sure of this. Well, look. The coefficient supposedly on the favorite does not allow him to believe in his victory at home. This is not a convincing victory ratio. We go further. The average total that is given for the game is equal to two goals. Which is also suitable for a draw game. Move on. The manner of the game, their location in the table, the statistics of the results and, in general, their effectiveness only attach my confidence in the chosen bet. If nothing extraordinary happens, then no one will escape
In this match I think it is pretty realistic to say we are going to see goals on both sides because brescia is in relegation zone and the need to attack the team which is in so bad shape as Cagliari is and I surely expect from them to score but on the other hand brescia defense is so bad that it is very hard to expect from them to keep the clean score heat and I don't think 1 1 is going to be correct score of this one so I decided to go with over 2.5 and I surely recommend it to anyone
Substitute Bailey picked the ball up wide in the area, shuffled away from a bewildered Matt Polster and lifted a delicate finishing up and around McGregor.

Wenger's calls for the introduction of what has been dubbed a 'daylight' offside rule have since been backed by Fifa president Gianni Infantino. He said that principle was backed by the rest of the Ifab. It has been received very positively," said Infantino after Saturday's meeting. That is why we decided to study this further, to debate it in different panels and with different stakeholders to elaborate a protocol.
A major reason behind this resurgence in form has come down to their form in front of goal and the fact that they have the second best offensive record in the league with 37 goals from their 18 games is testament to that fact.
He hopes he can soon reveal his progress from working with social media to protect players. But he is also urging white players and fans to become activists too. All of the attention in football is on the high-profile incidents in the Premier League but mercifully, they're relatively few and far between compared to grassroots football where anecdotal evidence tells us that something happens every week," he says.
I thought I would return to become that player after the injury, but I had a rude awakening. Rose is now hoping this fresh opportunity at Newcastle will give him the chance to prove that he is worthy of a place in Gareth Southgate's England squad for Euro 2020. I've been given a chance to play week in and week out," he said. I want to play football again - with the Euros in the summer, I want to put myself in window.
DEFLECTED SHOT Pedro Neto levelled with a deflected shot from 23 metres as Wolves piled on the pressure after the break. Rangers fell behind to a 37th-minute Kai Havertz penalty, given after a lengthy VAR check as George Edmundson handled a Charles Aranguiz cross. Aranguiz scored midway through the second half as he drilled in a half-cleared cross before Edmundson pulled one back for Rangers, heading home a James Tavernier corner.
Qviding has been in excellent form last time. The previous 12 matches in all competitions, Qviding were unbeaten up to 11 matches, including 10 victories and 1 draw. At home, this team has won 4 matches in a row. However, in the match against Oddevold, it is likely that Qviding will not enjoy complete joy.
Fulham has 57 points at this moment and wants to get on 3rd place with a win today and to get closer to the top 2 clubs Leeds and West Brom who seem to once more getting a bit of distance between them and the rest of the pack in the league, while Fulham has just 2 draws and one 3-0 loss at home to modest Barnsley in their last 3 Championship games, but still they won 2-1 away from home at Swansea but I do not trust their defense here and really not so sure they will win.
Fifa says everyone involved in staging football matches has a "responsibility" to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
