Incidents of racism have marred a number of Premier League games this season, while there were also incidents of alleged homophobia in three games last month, including a Brighton match. Yet again our safety and stewarding team, along with Sussex Police, have had to deal with three separate and unwanted instances of disgusting racist and homophobic abuse. Brighton chief executive Paul Barber. If the prospect of a life ban from watching their clubs play football isn't a strong enough deterrent, we have to ask the question as to whether the courts should be given the power to hand out more severe punishments? Football can only do so much, and we are sick and tired of the game's reputation being tarnished by these people.
They can still be pleased with their recent progress, which has taken them into the top 10 in the Championship. The playoffs are still a possibility for the visitors, but they’ll have to improve on just four wins from their 12 away trips so far this term. Given that they head here with one defeat in 11 meetings with Huddersfield, Blackburn should take something from this one and extend their unbeaten stretch.
For me, this is one of the matches where I see a lot of goals, in Italian Serie A today, even this is a league, where teams are mostly playing with stronger defense and that is the fact. So, Torino is one of the teams who is very dangerous this season for all us who are betting. When they are not favorites, they are make great results, against stronger rivals, like it was the case against Roma, few days ago (2-0), but when they are favorites, they are making mistakes. Bologna is better and better in every round, so they will score here surely.
Time and again the visitors were able to find space, particularly in the channels between each full-back and centre-back, and should have exploited that to a far greater extent than they managed. Only a combination of poor finishing and an excellent display by the two Spurs centre-backs (particularly the impressive Davinson Sanchez) kept the tie alive on a night that still saw the hosts take a lead and an away goal back to Germany.
Man Utd and Spurs’ striker hunt will get desperate Tottenham are looking for a short-term fix to replace the injured Harry Kane, while Manchester United are in the same boat with Marcus Rashford currently out. It could get desperate. Leicester striker Islam Slimani, currently on loan at Monaco, has been linked with a move to United.
Subs: Milner 6, Origi 5, Gomez 6. KEY STATS Liverpool are now 30 games unbeaten in the Premier League - just one game short of the club’s longest undefeated run in the top flight. Mane has scored in five straight games versus the Eagles. The Reds have now won on each of their last six visits to Selhurst Park.
We’re confident that under 2.5 goals will be produced in Saturday’s match and we have predicted a final scoreline between the pair of 0-0. The hosts have been almost as poor at home as their guests have on the road, with Tondela securing 5pts in 7 home games and Moreirense picking up 3pts from their eight matches on the road. Both teams head into the match in poor form and goals have been an issue for both clubs as Todnela have failed to score in three of their last six matches and Moreirense have failed to score in their last two away games.
Istanbul Başakşehir’s 0-4 defeat to Roma on MD1 was their first-ever meeting with Italian opposition. Roma failed to win four of their last five trips. Roma have only won one of their last 11 away games in the Champions League/Europa League.

Boro, who were the division's lowest scorers before kick-off with 19 goals from 22 games, grew in confidence after the break. Wing's powerfully driven low finish sparked joyous celebrations as the early-season gloom around The Riverside continued to clear and Jonathan Woodgate's side moved up to 18th in the table. Middlesbrough manager Jonathan Woodgate told BBC Tees: "It was two different halves. First half we were very disappointing - we lacked energy, drive, enthusiasm.
The French striker was Atletico's top scorer and talisman for five years and appeared to show his loyalty to the club when he rejected a tempting offer to join Barca in 2018 and pledged his future to the Madrid side in a televised documentary. But a year later he joined Barca for 120 million euros ($132 million), prompting a legal complaint from Atletico after it emerged the Catalans had negotiated with Griezmann without their permission, leading to club being fined a paltry 300 euros.
Reds went to Qatar to win, and they did' Media playback is not supported on this device No pass, no porridge - Klopp denied entry at breakfast Winning the Club World Cup was the only thing that mattered to Liverpool in Doha. To be part of the first Liverpool team to win that competition was a huge incentive for Klopp and his players, and they were absolutely desperate to do it. I know exactly how they felt, because it was the same for me when I was part of the Reds side beaten in the 2005 final.
The key difference for Sociedad has been defensively as they have struggled to contain teams of late. They conceded just four goals and kept three clean sheets in their opening half dozen games, but have gone on to keep just one clean sheet in their last eight, shipping 13 goals in total.
Fortunately, in terms of points, their travelling efforts have been slightly better than Nimes' home exploits, so the visitors ought to fancy themselves on Friday. Last time out on the road, Garcia's men got the better of Strasbourg, giving little away in the process. A repeat performance might be enough to see off Friday's low-scoring hosts. That said, the visitors have made a habit of conceding goals on their travels, surrendering at least one in each of their last seven away games. They've also not been prolific winners on the road, winning three out of seven.
Real Esteli have won four out of their last six home league games. Real Esteli have lost one of their last eight league fixtures. Diriangen have no wins in their last four away league games. Second placed Real Esteli host Diriangen who are third in the Nicaragua Premier League. Esteli are ahead of their opponents on goal difference with two games of the regular season remaining.
dinamo Minsk is playing terrible since the season started, they have 3-0-5 score and they are closer to the relegation zone then to the top of the table but still at home they are very strong and which is even more important their defense is pretty good so I Think bad isloch offense is not going to be able to score any goals today and on the other side dinamo offense is surely not enough good to score more than two goals so for me surely under 2.5 goals and of course I want to recommend this bet to the anyone
UNEASE AT EMPTY STADIA Serie A matches made for an eerie spectacle, as the shouts of the players and coaches could be heard ringing round empty grounds. AC Milan coach Stefano Pioli said “playing without spectators isn’t football” after his side lost 2-1 to Genoa in a deserted San Siro, while Udinese boss Luca Gotti described a “surreal situation” at his team's 0-0 draw with Fiorentina.
You will have your moments that best illustrate the unique footballing terrain we plough in Scotland. You might even have an entirely different top-20 than the one below. I will have accidentally overlooked some pearlers, I know that. I apologise, humbly. I'm fully expecting a tweet about why I missed out the time an Arbroath striker claimed to have been abducted by fembots in his previous life or why I omitted the fantastic story of Elgin's kit man, who used to be a roadie for the Rolling Stones and actually co-wrote Jumpin' Jack Flash.

Cadiz II will play against Sevilla II in the Spain segunda division group 4. Cadiz II is sitting on the 10th spot with 30 points while the visitors Sevilla II are sitting on the 13th spot with 26 points so far in this season. Cadiz II have a very good home record as they have won 3 of their last 5 home matches. Meanwhile sevilla II have drawn 2 of their last 3 away matches. They play very defensive football and I expect them to get at least a point from this match. This match to end in a draw
Zenit were forced to defend desperately at times after the break as Lyon pressed but the home side packed their midfield and held firm, denying the French side any clear chances. With Lyon running out of steam, Ozdoev sealed Zenit's win with a deflected 84th-minute shot from 18 metres, as his fierce half-volley clipped Marcelo's heel and sailed into the back of the net past the stranded Lopes.
It wasn't that long ago that Sivasspor were leading the league but a recent loss of form has seen slip down the standings. Fourth in the table, Sivasspor are only four points behind top-of-the-table Trabzonspor, so the situation is salvageable. Denizlispor, tenth in the table, will be concerned about distancing themselves from the relegation zone as there's only a six-point gap between them and it.
Dock Sud is certainly only a minimal favorite in this game. They had a great start to the season with four wins, two draws and one loss. But they will not be able to maintain this level. In terms of quality, I see Club Lujan clearly ahead. But it is a tough call. My bet for this match of the ninth day of the Argentine primera c is draw considering that the Dock Sud is in third position with 14 points 4 wins 2 draws 1 defeat while Club Lujan is in tenth place with 12 points. This is going to be a balanced match.
Pedro could no doubt continue to play at the top level, so may yet have a couple more years in the Premier League or Europe before moving on to one of the high-salary retirement leagues.

Nimes head to the clash placed 18th on 27 points while Marseille are second on 52 points. For Nimes, the 2-1 loss to third placed Rennes prevented them from pulling away from the red zone and now they have to do it all over again against a side with fading title ambitions. They conceded really late after they seemed to be forcing a draw, having scored early, though a second half red card to Tony Briancon didn’t help.
Step forward Watford, who had their home match with Leicester City played out on Football Manager. Despite playing most of the match with 10 men after a horrible challenge by Etienne Capoue on Dennis Praet, the Hornets earned a creditable point.

There is also a chance that Mauricio Pochettino could swap North London clubs. Paper Round’s view: Santo plays an attractive and sophisticated style of football, and has also given young English players a chance to get time on the pitch and improve their performances. Emery does seem to have lost the dressing room and the fans, so a change is likely to be made unless there's a sudden and sustained return to form.

Slimani fired in the opener for the visitors after 15 minutes to notch up his sixth league goal of the season. Bordeaux drew level through Pablo, who rose the highest to head in from a corner and level the score before halftime. The hosts completed their comeback thanks to a moment of madness from Slimani, who raised his arm while in the wall to block a free kick, resulting in a Bordeaux penalty and his second yellow card of the afternoon.
Preston is being extremely fierce chasing on the chart, so Preston must be more focused now. Currently, the home team is ranked 6th in the rankings with 53 points. Above them, Forest, Brentford or Fulham only got 55 and 56 points, respectively. However, in terms of the ability Preston to be in the top 6 is the possibility. Because right now behind the home team is Bristol City also has the same 53 points and only inferior in goal difference. At the moment, the visitors are only ranked 17th in the table with 41 points. I think Preston will win easy this match.

Individually, clubs are continuing to explore cost-cutting measures, with many already applying for the government job retention scheme. That would see 80% of players and staff wages being covered up to a maximum of £2,500 per month, but would also leave clubs unable to issue players with training schedules and dietary plans. The Scottish FA is continuing to look at sources of income in a bid to potentially provide members with short-term loans.

Back Wolfsburg to win with a minus-one handicap.
