Teams who are relegated that way could say 'well our last few games were against people around us' and if you go down now then that is a serious loss of revenue at at time where every penny is going to count. Using average points per game, the current bottom three would still go down even though Villa have a game in hand and Bournemouth have the same projected points total as Watford and West HamKaren Carney: It would have to be void.
That this situation even existed in the first place is a feather in the cap of Smith's side, who fought hard despite seemingly looking doomed to the drop. A long way from safety and on a three-game losing streak heading into their game against Crystal Palace on 12 July, they beat the Eagles, drew at Everton and then recorded a win over Arsenal to edge ahead of the faltering Hornets. This final point sealed a second-successive season in the top-flight and to some extent justified the lavish spending they undertook last summer.
BARCELONA, Jan 28 (Reuters) - Valencia coach Albert Celades has confirmed his team are negotiating with Barcelona over the sale of striker Rodrigo Moreno on Tuesday. Spanish champions Barcelona are looking to replace injured striker Luis Suarez, who will miss around four months after knee surgery. Rodrigo is a player who can make the difference, that's why Barcelona want him," Celades told a news conference.
Arsenal meets Sheffield Utd in a match of a round in England Premier League. The home side is currently on 10th place with 28 points. Sheffield Utd have been a missive surprise this season by being all the way up on 6th place . Sheffield have lost their last two away games. Arsenal will certainly be looking for revenge. The last contest between these two teams ended with a 1-0 win for Sheffield Utd. Six of the former eight wins went to Arsenal. Arsenal really need to start winning these home games and can start with a win here . Tip: 1
In a weekend with four live Championship games, it’s odd that this clash has been left off the schedule. The meeting between West Brom and Brentford is set to be huge, especially with the visitors now into the top four in the Championship.
Billy Gilmour's first-team career so far amounts to just seven appearances - four starts - and 461 minutes. But the 18-year-old Scot has wasted no time in making a lasting impression at the heart of Chelsea's midfield. Among the list of admirers is West Ham manager David Moyes, who would relish a chance to work with his compatriot. The one [Scottish player] who if I could sign tomorrow I would is Billy Gilmour after his opening performances for Chelsea," said Moyes.
The language sparked outrage and prompted an on-field protest by players, while sponsor Coca-Cola told the Wall Street Journal https://www. I sincerely apologise for the offence and pain caused by language in this week's court filing, which did not reflect the values of our federation," Cordeiro said in a written statement.
Qatar Super league. Team Al Arabi will play at home with team Al Sadd. Team Al Sadd is very famous team. They participated in the World Chamions League. Last season they were 1st in Qatar. Al Sadd is very offensive team. They did over 3.5 goals at last 3 away matches played. Matches head to head with team Al Arabi were ended 10 - 1 and 5 - 1. Al Arabi are undefeated at last 5 matches played . So , I predict guests victory here. And I am waiting 3 - 4 goals from guests. And maybe hosts will score their goal today.
The hosts have only lost twice at home this season and Heracles have only won two times on the road, but the visitors have secured four draws on their travels so you can see why we have backed Sunday’s clash to end all square. Emmen average 1.89 points per home game and have only lost 22% of games in their own backyard, while Heracles average 1.11 points per away game which is above the league average of 1.08 and have drawn 44% of those matches.
I feel a bit safer in taking the over bet instead of the away win and odds are also a little bit better for the over bet reason being the hosts conceded 42 goals so far this season which is by far the weakest defensive record in the league this season but they are not actually bottom in the league they are 3rd from bottom just that against solid sides they usually concede plenty of goals even in home games.
Betis also secured wins over Barca, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid during his two-year tenure, and he left the club by mutual consent in the summer. Barcelona are top of La Liga on goal difference and have won four of the last five league titles. I thank Ernesto Valverde for leaving me with a side that is top of the league," he said. My objective is to win everything! Everything you can win, this club has no other path to follow.

They are making this move not to help you and not with your best interests in mind, but solely to serve themselves. Their hearts will not genuinely be in the club that means everything to you. I urge you to send this message loud and clear to the Premier League, to your club's management, to your city's leaders, and to the world. She added: "We should not let the beautiful game of football be shamed by those who are not passionate for it, and who only seek to use it to hide their shocking deeds.
Jamie Vardy scored two goals in his last match and now has scored 99 in the Premier League. His next strike will see him become the 29th player to reach a century in the competition, and the 16th to do so for a single club.

We are pretty much always ready," said Klopp. If we can do something which helps us, we will try to do it. If not we will not. He added that the summer transfer window was 'really difficult', since it closed for English clubs before the rest of Europe. We'll see how that goes in the future but the summer window only hurts English clubs and doesn't help them.

Spurs, with Son Heung-min also absent after surgery on a fractured arm, have struggled to find a focal point in attack recently and opted for a fluid front three of Bergwijn, Alli and Lucas Moura, though it was Aurier who proved their most penetrative threat. It was from the Ivory Coast international's driven cross that Spurs took the lead, as Bergwijn pounced after Alli's initial effort was saved to score his second Tottenham goal since a January move from PSV.
We're giving (Abraham) every opportunity to play tomorrow," Lampard told a news conference. We will make the call tomorrow, he has a bit of pain. You can't isolate it to one player and game. He can't just be the reason for losing the game (against West Ham). Midfielder Ross Barkley (illness) will miss the match while defender Antonio Rudiger (groin) could return in the next 10 days.
Accrington play host to Bolton at Crown Ground on Saturday afternoon, as they look to bounce back after a couple of defeats. In contrast, Bolton are hoping to put together a winning run after beating MK Dons last time out.
Van Basten apologised later in the programme while Fox said in a statement on Monday that the comment was "stupid and inappropriate" and that it had suspended the three-times Ballon d'Or winner until December 7. The channel added that Van Basten's wages for the week would be donated to the Netherlands Institute for War Documentation.
The 27-year-old has pace and trickery in abundance, coupled with excellent close control and the ability to glide away from defenders at the drop of a shoulder. Big choices to be made Zaha could make himself formidable. Opponents resort to ‘roughing’ him up because on his day, they see that as the most effective way to disrupt his rhythm, there are no other options.
Despite taking the Ivory Coast to the 2014 World Cup as manager and guiding French side Rennes to Europa League qualification during his stint with the Ligue 1 club, his appointment came with none of the fanfare or expectation placed on his predecessor. But what he has done is instil stability, a sense of excitement at the City Ground and a real belief that the East Midlands club can secure a place in the Premier League for the first time this century.
Today at Estadio Hernando Siles in La Paz we have match in Bolivia Division Profesional Clausura. Bolivar versus Always Ready and I think host team will be able to win this match by 2 or more goals differences. Bolivar is one of the best teams in league and they have good players. Bolivar is ranked at 1st place on table with 36 points and have 11 wins 3 draw and 3 lost. Guest is ranked at 6 place on table with 26 points and they play solid. I think Bolivar will be able to win this match 3-1 or 3-0.
Real and City meet in the last 16 of the Champions League, with the first leg at the Bernabeu on 26 February, with the return game at Etihad Stadium on 17 March. Zidane added: "For what has happened, their motivation will be immense. I'm not going to go into what happened, what is going to happen. It's a team, anyway, who will be a difficult opponent, knowing also how they have been doing in the Premier League.
1-0 victory over Extremadura was vital for the hosts, thanks to a goal from Maikel. Boosted both the qualifying hope and the team's morale, as it ended a very poor run for the team with a win in the last 16 games. Huesca missed a great opportunity to get closer to direct promotion on Thursday, losing 2-1 at home to Miranda. Huesca lacked consistency and suffered in front of goal. In addition in the last game, they committed two defense errors that Datkovic involved and conceded 2 goals. I think it will end in draw because this is a match which is important for both teams.

All things considered, we like the look of backing the visitors on the Draw No Bet line and feel it provides good value at current odds. Sutton haven't been very strong at home this season and although they are in good form now, so are Yeovil and as the better side on paper, the away side should be able to secure all 3 points via a 2-1 margin of victory.
very important game for both of the squads because Paderborn is on last place on the table with just 16 points won and on the other side fortuna is on spot which lead to the match from team from Bundesliga 2 for the last spot in Bundesliga for next season with 22 points so I think none of the teams wants to lose this one and that is why I do not expect fun game to watch and I think there are slight chances more than 2 goals will be scored maybe even 0-0 be correct score at the end
Spain are the hosts and come into this semi-final as strong favourites to reach the final. Rafael Nadal has been in top form this week as he looks to add this trophy to his world number one ranking. The Spanish doubles line-up has also been supplying a string of wins which makes their line-up even stronger. Great Britain's Dan Evans hasn't been playing so well and with Andy Murray not playing since the opening game, the odds are looking good for Spain to win this match.
Both rivals were fighting for the title in the first part of the season, along with The Strongest. Bolivar was better for the difference, but now they are far from the leader position and should work hard in the next games to regain top part.
Subs: Suarez 6, De Jong 7, Fati 8. Highlights: 11' Great chance for Lukaku, he turned inside Umtiti but Lenglet's despairing challenge spooned the ball away from the target. Good save from Neto on his debut. Umtiti looks well out of his depth, muscled out by Martinez, who moved the ball inside to Lukaku, he fed Biraghi and his fierce strike, albeit at a nice height, was parried away.
Impressive form after coming back from the Covid-19 pandemic helped Cosenza relive hope of relegation that seemed to be off earlier. In this round, the coach and coach Roberto Occhiuzzi will stay at home to welcome his opponent Trapani who is also competing directly for a relegation. With a prey so familiar in the past, it seems that Cosenza's sublimation momentum has not stopped.
Silence spread through the King Power as Vardy - who has scored 17 goals and picked up four assists this season - received treatment on the pitch before attempting to run it off. He lasted barely two minutes when he returned and was eventually substituted for striker Kelechi Iheanacho. Rodgers said after the game Vardy's injury was "not his hamstring, which is good".

In the league, there’s a big gap separating these sides, with Real Sociedad sixth on 31 points and Espanyol bottom with just 14 points. Real Sociedad have three wins and two losses ahead of this game. They beat Espanyol 3-1 in their first meeting this season and will be hoping for more of the same. In their last 10 matches, Real Sociedad have four wins, three losses and three clean sheets.
Last season, Sodertalje FF and Assyriska United competed in Division 4, Sweden's 6th division but different from the region. Sodertalje finished in only 7/12 teams in the Herrar region with 9 wins, 1 draw and lost 12 matches. The whole season, they scored 56 goals but received 69 goals. Meanwhile, Assyriska United excelled in the 2nd place in the Southern region, thus winning the promotion play-off spot. Last season, they won 14/22 matches, scored 69 goals and received 43 goals. So, despite playing in the 6th division last season, the two teams have a clear differentiation. But this is a friendly match so it will be difficult to predict the result.
Brest are the current champions in the league but they have started this season poor with a 1-1-1 record in the first 3 games. However, last week they took a huge step towards the final of the cup with a 2-0 win over Shakhtyor Soligorsk.
Southampton have kept two clean sheets in their past four home Premier League games - as many as in their previous 28 matches at St Mary's in the competition. What's next?Southampton visit West Ham next Saturday (15:00 GMT) while Villa face Manchester City in the EFL Cup final at Wembley next Sunday (16:30 GMT).
Probably Manchester City will win in this big derby in Premier league in England because they are in this moment better team than it is Manchester United and that is what everyone know, who is following the best league in the world. I was watched them in last round in this interesting league, when they are beat Burnley as a guests, even 4-1 while and Manchester United is played very good match in last round, when they are beat Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 at home. I believe in very interesting duel today and in at least four goals. I will try.
Wan-Bissaka produced another standout performance at the weekend, keeping Raheem Sterling very quiet as United beat Manchester City to do the league double over their blue rivals for the first time in a decade. And Wan-Bissaka is so good in the eyes of Carragher that City boss Pep Guardiola needs to change how he approaches playing against him to have more success.
The 31-year-old has been linked with a move to Inter Milan, and jokingly approved an Instagram message suggesting he was waiting to be reunited with Jose Mourinho at Tottenham. Paper Round’s view: Matic did well in his first season at United but has since dropped off as the game sped up around him. He seems ready to move on and understandably would rather be playing regularly than sitting on the sidelines.
In the last six matches, Everton have scored in three, but on only one occasion have they been able to score more than a goal, and they have two clean sheets in the process. At home, in the Premier League, Everton are unbeaten in 10 matches; they last lost at home in the league to bottom side Norwich City in November 2019.
They are neither here nor there. What I'm absolutely certain about is they are not a good enough to keep the likes of Mesut Ozil out of the team. One bright spark though in a ordinary Arsenal side is stand-in goal keeper Emiliano Martinez. The Argentine came into the side at a difficult time for the injured Bernd Leno and he produced a superb one handed save from Southampton's Danny Ings when Arsenal were under immense pressure.
