Italy continue their quest to win a first match in the Six Nations since 2015. This is their best chance of doing so but Scotland look too strong for them. They have lost to Ireland and England but had their chances in those matches. Italy have lost to Wales and France and have conceded 10 tries in those two defeats. Go for Scotland to get the win here and almost certainly condemn Italy to the wooden spoon.

In this situation, the scenarios we are considering are all short term,” he said. If we can’t sort out the short-term then, unfortunately, we aren’t going to have time to sort out anything more long-term. We aren’t allowing that to enter our minds. Tebas also confirmed that La Liga had sent coronavirus test kits to all of its clubs so players can be tested.

And we have discovered it is not the same. Time with the family is precious, the garden may look neater and there is even more time to make a complete mess of the simplest of household chores - but football will be welcomed back with open arms by millions across the nation. Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti is credited with first using the phrase "football is the most important of the less important things in the world" and its absence has enabled so many to re-engage with what makes that phrase ring gloriously true.
A spokeswoman for Catalonia's judiciary confirmed that France's World Cup winning defender, 26, faces a civil hearing at 1100 CET on Thursday but declined to give further details on the case.

Restart of the season now in the lower division of Spain. The two teams are close to the relegation zone and have to look further to collect points. Oviedo sit 17th in the standings and only 1 point ahead of the relegation zone, Ponferradina is ranked 11th in the standings but the bottom line is that they are only 5 points ahead of the relegation. Ponferradina narrowly won 2-1 in the first leg, here I expect a 1-1 draw. Both teams stand by 5 points in the table. Real Oviedo has 8 draws at home in 15 games this season. Ponferradina is the worst away team but has good number of draws.

This is crunch time for Lampard and his squad. Because whether he likes it or not this has rapidly become a pivotal season for Lampard. Any notion of a transitional year has gone out of the window, mostly thanks to the spectacular ineptitude emanating at times from the red half of Manchester as well as both sides of North London.
In addition, June’s scheduled internationals have been put on hold, including the Nations League play-offs for Euro 2020. It's been a tricky first few years for Uefa’s latest competition. Just when everybody starts to get a handle on the format, a global pandemic rolls around to muck everything up. But on the other hand, the Euros aren’t happening until 2021, so there’s still time.
He will be 31 in June, and the club do not want to be stuck with another Mesut Ozil. They may not want to risk a huge financial outlay on a player whose body may start to give out at any moment. Given the importance of pace to his game, the risk is that his potency could fade suddenly and dramatically.

Dinamo Minsk has 3 wins and 3 losses in the league so far this season and still just two of their games ended with just one goal scored it was a 1-0 defeat at home to Rukh Brest who actually played all their games so far this season in the league with under 1.5 goals scored in them and a 1-0 defeat away at another very defensive side Gorodeja but they did have a lot of scoring chances there. The other games played by Dinamo had at least 2 goals scored starting with a 3-2 loss away at FC Minsk, followed by a 2-0 win at home with Zhodino, another 2-0 win at home with Newman and a 3-1 win last round away at Smolevichi.
However, the Catalans struggled to find their groove as Athletic Club turned this match into something of a slog, matching the visitors for intensity and tempo. Williams found the net after just nine minutes, only for the offside flag to come to Barca’s rescue. That should have been a warning. That warning wasn’t heeded, though, as Barcelona wasted golden opportunities through Lionel Messi and Antoine Griezmann before Williams flicked on a delivery into the box in stoppage time to snatch the semi final place for the hosts.

That is despite the total number of deaths relating to virus passing 30,000 in Europe, and 43,000 globally. Belarus confirmed its first death from the virus on Tuesday, but the unofficial number is reportedly a lot higher. Fifpro, the world union for football players, has said it is "frankly not comprehendible" that games are continuing in the Eastern European nation.

Christian Gourcuff's Nantes have been quietly going about their business this season with them currently sitting 5th despite little to no buzz about them at the start of the campaign. They've lost just two of their last six league games with three wins in there for good measure.

In Spain Segunda Division, Elche hosts Extremadura. Elche is 6th and still in the contention for the playoffs. Extremadura is second to last and fights to not relegated. Elche is more comfortable on the road than at home where the team has lost only 4 times and made 6 draws in 15 games. Visitors can get the edge in this game. Elche was in a good form before the break and won 2 games, taking 6th place with 46 points. Extremadura left the corona break with a 1-2-1 record but is still in relegation zone with 31 points. I anticipate this match to be draw.

Hamburger are ranked third on the Bundesliga 2 standings, with 41 points after 23 matches. Erzgebirge Aue with the same number of matches just won 31 points, ranked in 9th place. Therefore, I am not surprised that Hamburger is more appreciated by the experts on the possibility of winning in the upcoming competition between two teams. Against the first leg of this season, Hamburger easily defeated Erzgebirge Aue with a score of 4-0. Hamburger will have the return of four pillars: Jeremy Dudziak, Josha Vagnoman, Jan Gyamerah and Kyriakos Papadopoulos. These are very important players of Hamburger. I choose Hamburger -0.75 AH
Well that first leg produced many goals and many chances which at the end PAOK won with 3-0 but I don't think that we are going to see that too. This is a huge derby in Greece for sure, and this derbies are always heated. Also that result from 2-3 is good for both teams. PAOK will focus more on the defense for sure while Olympiacos only needs win with one goal to gain advantage. More than 60% of the matches between this two teams finished with under, and the odd today is very good and has value most certainly . Last match between this two teams Olympiacos won with 1-0.

The deputy chairman Douglas Park will chair the board during the interim period and a new permanent chairman will be elected by the board at the next board meeting and will be announced immediately thereafter. I considered the possibility of extending my time as chairman until the coronavirus crisis is over but that is not practically possible.

Liverpool’s last Premier League outing was a routine win at home to Sheffield United, making it 19 wins from their opening 20 league matches and extending their winning streak to 11 top flight fixtures.

I think it will be a lot of goals in this match who will be play tonight in Danish Cup and that is pretty real to expect, really is. So, Horsens is interesting team who is in very problematic form, because they are in series of three loses in a row, 1-2, 1-2 and 0-6, while their rival, on the other side is team who is also few matches in a row without win. In last official duel between this two rivals, Horsens was better team and they are beat this rival at home 2-1. This duel will be similar.
However, their hopes of adding League Cup and Champions League success to that have been dented by the injury to Mbappe. Mbappe had scored six goals in four appearances before football was suspended because of the coronavirus pandemicWith many players struggling to get up to speed after four months without competitive football, Mbappe was one of the most lively players on the pitch in the opening stages and it was his powerful shot that led to the opener as Jessy Moulin spilled the ball at Neymar's feet for the opener.
Boreham Wood will host Torquay United for this fixture of the league. I believe, the hosts have better team than their opponent. Boreham Wood are more ambitious team in this season. However, the hosts have highly variable results. In last game Boreham Wood lost 0-1 against weak Maidenhead. On the other hand Torquay Utd is very average team in this season. I believe, the hosts have a more offensive team. True, they have a vulnerable defense. Nevertheless, the visitors have the potential to provide a strong resistance. I think, they will try to get the victory on the opposite stadium.
The good news for Wednesday is that they’re meeting one of the league’s worst travellers. Birmingham have won once in their last eight in the league, while they’ve lost seven of their last nine trips in all competitions.

Reading players will be extra motivated in this duel, since their club will play against table leaders, WBA is at the top of standings, and has two victories in a row, with identical results 2-0. It was against at home against Luton and in last round at away against Millwall, not so represent opponents, anyway, visitors may choice to rest some standard players for this duel.

Chelsea were linked with a number of signings in the January window including Paris St-Germain forward Edinson Cavani and Napoli striker Dries Mertens. But Lampard's apparent frustration with a lack of new arrivals is understood to have stemmed from clubs refusing to sell rather than any problems with Chelsea's recruitment strategy. Ziyech contributed to a memorable Ajax goal against Chelsea in the 4-4 draw in their Champions League group game in November.
