The hosts only appear to be getting worse too as they have failed to score in their last four league matches, a fact which has plagued them all season as they have also failed to score in exactly half of their home league games. This lack of goalscoring ability is something which will need to be addressed by the new management as soon as possible, as they have just a six point gap over the drop zone and know that they can ill afford for this form to continue the way it has been going for much longer.
Swansea suffered another defeat on Boxing Day, leaving them outside the playoff places once again. The Welsh side have slipped down the table in recent weeks, with their limited resources catching up on them. Their blistering start was always likely to fade after their big summer departures, but they could still make the playoffs with some improved results.
Bayern Munich look set to complete the league and cup double. They had problems in the early part of the season but have been in awesome form since then. They just keep on winning and that includes going to Leverkusen last month and coming away with a 4-2 win. Leverkusen blew their chances of qualifying for the Champions League via the Bundesliga. Go for Bayern to win this game leading at both half and full time.

Contrary to some press reports the PFA has never stated that it will block all wage deferrals," said the Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) in a statement. Instead, it had sought "a structured and unified approach to ensure a fair response across the leagues. It said that a meeting with the Premier League and the English Football League -- consisting of the lower divisions -- in March agreed to protect players' salaries for that month and talks about possible cuts in April were ongoing.
For younger German football fans this is a completely new experience but more seasoned fans could draw parallels to some 45 years ago when Bayern, in the midst of their three consecutive European Cup wins, lost their domestic crown to a sensational Gladbach team. Gladbach won five of eight league titles between 1970 and 1977, including three straight from 1975-77.

It is the 25th day of the Raiffeisen Super League, the Swiss football championship where Lugano will host Luzern. Lugano sit 7th place with 27 points. Luzern sit 5th place with 34 points. Both teams are in identical form lately. Lugano are undefeated in 7 games, 3 games ended in draw. Away team in last game surprisingly defeated Basel 2:1. In my opinion Luzern is a favorite in this game. They just have a really strong run. Lugano, on the other hand, could only win one of the last five games. Today it will be a tough game between these two teams. The draw result would serve good for both team.
Advantage Baggies. Callum Robinson scored to put Slaven Bilic's Albion ahead after half-time, but Eberechi Eze's spectacular strike levelled for Rangers. At Wigan, Neeskens Kebano was levelling things up for Fulham. Thomas Frank's Brentford were the form team in recent weeks, winning eight games to propel themselves into the automatic mix before losing to Stoke on Saturday, and Josh Dasilva's equaliser again handed them the initiative with 17 minutes to go.

West Brom head to this game as firm favorites, and though they have not won in three of their last four matches, their quality has been up there for all to see. What they lack in defence, they compensate in attack and playing at home against Middlesbrough should not be a major worry for them. West Bromwich Albion have scored in 14 of their last 15 matches, and have scored two or more goals in five of their last 10 matches. We believe they will continue with their scoring form here. Meanwhile, they have no clean sheet in the last five matches. On the other hand, Middlesbrough have scored in 10 of their last 15 matches, but have just one clean sheet in their last 11 away matches. Going by this, we expect both sides to score but we feel West Bromwich Albion will outscore Middlesbrough. We will go for a 2-1 win for West Bromwich Albion.
If you look at City they are an example, and we're at the absolute start of that process. A few of our players were in the Championship last season, but we want more. Drama at both ends in dramatic finish Media playback is not supported on this device Small details cost Chelsea the win - Frank Lampard Guardiola's side did enough to see the game out after the break, restricting the visitors - who had won their previous six Premier League games - to only five shots, all off target.
A club like Newcastle can win five games and get to Wembley. Saint-Maximin makes his markNewcastle needed something out of the ordinary to halt Oxford's remarkable recovery that saw Karl Robinson's League One promotion chasers turn the game on its head in the closing minutes. The Magpies looked to be closing out a comfortable victory despite Oxford's endeavour but they were rocked on their heels by Kelly and Holland.
Fulham have seen over 2.5 goals land in 75% of their home matches. Meanwhile, the majority of Stoke’s trips have seen over 2.5 goals scored. The visitors have seen both teams score in 64% of their trips, while they’ve been beaten 2-1 on three occasions on the road this term. We see Fulham pulling off a similar result, with half of their home games this season seeing exactly three goals scored.
UEFA announced on Thursday that it will hold a video conference on 17 March to discuss plans for the rest of the season regarding the Champions League, Europa League and Euro 2020.

They know just how crucial a win will be here, especially after their current run of 10 winless matches. With just one win in 15 matches, the confidence levels have really dipped at Brighton and further, they have failed to score in their last two matches. It hasn’t been any easier at home; Brighton have no win in five home matches and have conceded in each of these, though not by more than a goal.
There was no obvious benefit gained from Solskjaer's decision to excuse his entire starting line-up, plus coaches Michael Carrick and Kieran McKenna, from the draining midweek Europa League trip to Astana. United's equaliser came against the run of play and the lack of invention in midfield contrasted sharply with the threat posed by Grealish. There were sporadic boos for the home side at the final whistle but in a period where Tottenham and Arsenal have both sacked their managers, United are behind both in the table, putting Solskjaer under scrutiny, even if the United hierarchy remain supportive of the Norwegian.
Borussia Dortmund, third on 39, entertain Eintracht Frankfurt, who are unbeaten this year having won three of their four games since the winter break. Dortmund, who suffered a 4-3 loss to Bayer Leverkusen last week, are also in action against Paris St Germain in the Champions League Round of 16 next week.
I had a fever, a headache and my eyes were burning. I already had symptoms during the night, shivering for cold. I got suspicious. I already had flu in January. I rang my family and they all had the same symptoms. We'd had a family dinner together a few days before. Since coronavirus was already big at that point in the media and people had already been infected in my area, I knew straight away what we all had.

This promises to be the best game of today from Serie A in Italy, not only because they are two of the biggest clubs in Italy at this moment, but because both sides are quite attacking minded and scoring goals but also not that safe in defense, and Napoli has been struggling for most of this season against very defensive minded sides but Inter should be more open here and Napoli usually has 20+ shots in home games, and I see them scoring possibly even goals here.
When Bolton got the better of Bristol Rovers a few weeks back, it looked as though they'd turned a corner, though they've since lost two on the bounce away from home, conceding no less than eight goals in the process. In addition, The Trotters have performed poorly away against the big teams, losing against Peterborough, Rotherham and Portsmouth, conceding eight goals and scoring just one in the process.
Werder actually has the weakest defense in the league conceding more goals this season even than Paderborn as just some days ago they hosted Leverkusen at home and their defense was really poor conceding no less than 4 goals with ease while their attack remained at a decent level scoring a goal and missing several other scoring chances while before the break on the road they played away from home at Hertha and drew the game 2-2 in the end while earlier this season they drew 2-2 at home with Freiburg as well, so I do expect some goals to be scored in this one.
Hertha BSC will play in front of domestic fans against Mainz 05, five points is a gap between them at standings, and Mainz is just one place above relegation zone, and if they want to avoid relegation in current season they need to change something urgently, their major problems is weak defense, they own the worst defense in Bundesliga, also they collected four defeats in a row. Hertha not playing so well at home in current season, but this duel should not be problem for them, Like baking will be in attack, Grujic, Dilrosun and Wolf will be behind him, by my opinion, Hertha will win in this duel without problems.
Asked by reporters if he was surprised at Guardiola's comments, with the Premier League champions 11 points behind leaders Liverpool after 14 games, the German said it was news to him. I'm only hearing this now for the first time. Am I surprised? No. But it's not important," he said ahead of Wednesday's Merseyside derby with Everton.
Both sides have scored in each of their last six meetings. Six of the last seven meetings between the two sides have yielded over 2.5 goals. Levante have five losses in their last six La Liga matches. Real Madrid have not lost any of their last 15 La Liga matches. Levante have scored two or more goals in four of their last five home games.
Guadalupe will host Limon for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, this is a very unpredictable league and I think, the visitors have real chance to get all the points. Guadalupe is very average team in this season. They are currently on the 6th place with 21 points. Yeah, the hosts have better team than their opponent in this campaign. Nevertheless, I expect, the visitors to provide a strong resistance. Limon are currently on the 10th place with 14 points. However, they have the motivation to change their positions. In previous game Limon is won 0-1 against ambitious Herediano (away) My pick - Limon to win.
I hope Atletico will push fan culture to another level and we'll see a presence around the city," said Hooper. People have been blown away so far and we're buzzing to see this finally start. The Atletico projectIt has been some job for Atletico Ottawa chief executive Fernando Lopez, who was tasked with assembling a roster, appointing backroom staff and getting the club up and running.

Klopp was asked following Liverpool's 2-0 defeat by Chelsea in the fifth round if the team was worried about the spread of the flu-like virus or how it might affect them. Look, what I don't like in life is that (for) a very serious thing, a football manager's opinion is important. I don't understand it," Klopp told a news conference.
As recent results suggest, Birmingham are starting to a better job of making themselves hard to beat – they've lost just one of their last five – but they're struggling to come out on top. They've won just one of their last five, as well as just one of their last seven.

Watford’s improvement over the last couple of weeks has been admirable, but there’s no getting away from the fact that they need to actually start producing results. Sunday’s match against an inconsistent Manchester United could be just the boost they need.
He hasn't played well for over six months - save for a cameo role in the 4-2 comeback win over Olympiacos in the Champions League in November - and there is little indication he will suddenly start performing now he's touched down in Serie A. On the other hand, he's rarely played in a 3-5-2 (or a 3-4-1-2) at Spurs, and Conte's preferred formation would appear to suit him.
One thing is a nice reaction, another thing is support. So I think a nice reaction is probably to me but then during the game the support will be for Solskjaer - that's the nature of the game. That's the nature of a place with an incredible history and with fans that understand clearly what the passion for a club is.
