Athletic Bilbao will see the Copa del Rey as a good chance to qualify for European football next season. They have had a tricky route to the last four but got a 1-0 home win over Barcelona last week, even if it did take an own goal to get that win. Home form is strong and they take on a side that struggle on their travels. Bilbao beat Granada in early December and can get another win here.
He believes banning large-scale gatherings, as many cities have done in China, has had a positive effect on containing the virus. Inter were due to play away to Juventus on Sunday, but the game was postponed on the Saturday. They were then offered the chance to play 24 hours later on Monday - with fans being allowed at the game in Juve's Allianz Stadium - a suggestion which was emphatically rejected by Zhang.
This is all fuel for the argument that talented, well-managed, successful sides tend to get their business done before the final five minutes, thus avoiding the need for late salvation. However, in the most tightly contested title races, fine margins matter. It is something Liverpool's current nearest challengers Manchester City know full well. After all, they scored the most famous late goal in Premier League history when Sergio Aguero struck in the 94th minute to beat QPR and clinch the title on goal difference on a dramatic final day in 2012.
Peterborough have scored in all of their home games this season and a majority of the host’s wins this season have been obtained with a margin of two goals or more (6 wins), while a majority of Bolton’s defeats have been by two goals or more (7 defeats) so far this season, which adds weight to our prediction for a 3-0 Peterborough victory on Saturday.

I learn about the players, and I learn about the players particularly in games like that," Lampard told reporters when asked if Thursday's performance had nudged him in a certain direction on transfers. Fourth-placed Chelsea -- beaten by Bournemouth on their own patch earlier this month -- last lost two successive games at home in November 2011 under Andre Villas-Boas.
In fairness, slinking off to do a bit of leg work doesn’t sound particularly “astonishing”. Maybe if he’d smashed a few plant pots on the way and left an insulting message on Sir Bobby Charlton’s phone before ramming his supercar through the barriers at Carrington. Either way, one of the most random transfers in this January window is now close to completion and, at the age of 34, Young will make his first foray outside of England, hoping to emulate the success Chris Smalling has had in rejuvenating his career at Roma.
After a look at the form going into this one, the hosts seem to be worthy favourites. His men have won three of their four games under him, while they have won their last two home matches under his watch. Their weekend win at Swansea should set them up perfectly for a result in this home clash, especially when you consider the standard of the opposition.

Chris Wilder's Sheffield United have wowed the Premier League on their return to the English top flight this season. The Blades sit eighth and are still in the hunt for a Europa League spot. With two games to go, they have already surpassed their best Premier League points total and are on course for their best top-flight league finish for 45 years. But how do Wilder's outfit compare to previous newly promoted high-flyers in the competition?Win their final two fixtures, at home against Everton on Monday and at Southampton on Sunday, and Sheffield United will finish on an impressive 60 points.
It was a second successive victory for Everton's new manager Carlo Ancelotti, who made his debut at Goodison Park with a 1-0 win over Burnley on Thursday when Calvert-Lewin netted a late winner for the Toffees. The 22-year old fired the visitors ahead in the 13th minute, sweeping the ball home from six metres after a deflected Gylfi Sigurdsson shot fell kindly for him.
In Germany, Nuremberg and Stuttgart are expected to face one another in a Bundesliga 2 match which will be held at Max-Morlock-Stadion, Nuremberg city. In the table, Stuttgart takes position 2 with 55 points after playing 32 matches while Nurnberg takes position 15 with 36 points after playing 32 matches.
They are all so well drilled. Can they keep it up?The next few weeks will stretch the Blades squad to its limit. In December they have seven league games then Wilder's side faces dates with Manchester City (away), Liverpool (away), Arsenal (away) and Manchester City (home) between 29 December and 21 January. That's a daunting run by any measure, but Sheffield United do not lack belief - illustrated by the fact they are unbeaten away from home since 19 January.
After some eye-catching summer recruitment, Cagliari were expected to be a useful side this term, though few people would've expected them to do as well as they have. Monday's hosts find themselves in a lofty 4th place and are there on merit.
DOHA, Dec 20 (Reuters) - There is a catchphrase that world soccer’s governing body FIFA frequently trots out when it discusses holding tournaments outside of the game’s traditional strongholds in Europe and South America -- “developing the game”. It is not, however, a phrase that appeals greatly to Hassan Al Thawadi, the man who heads Qatar’s organising body for the 2022 World Cup, which will be held in the Gulf state.

Naft Masjed Soleyman will host Saipa for this fixture of the league. Hosts probably are favorites in this game. Naft M.I.S have better position in the table. Also, the hosts have advantage at home stadium. Also, they are undefeated in their last 5 matches. However, they have low potential in attack. In last game Naft M.I.S played in a 0-0 draw with Gol Gohar. Also, we have Saipa who's is not very good team in this campaign. They are currently bottom of the table. In any case, they have the motivation to change their position. Also, it should be said, Saipa have better results in the last mutual matches. My pick - Saipa to win.
We already saw Reds boss Jurgen Klopp make a load of changes for the league match against Everton and I would not be surprised if he gambled again. That would be a risk against this Toffees side, who already look a different proposition under Carlo Ancelotti. It will be lively too - because there will be a different atmosphere, there will be a lot more Everton fans inside Anfield for this one - but I still think Liverpool will get through it.

Their last match together was a 6-0 loss to Fabio Capello's England at Wembley. When he started to play here in Andorra I travelled with the team. I was like a small supporter.

You can imagine that to play in these big stadiums, against these big stars with your brother was an amazing experience.

It was certainly not a humiliation, merely a necessity. Time will tell if the lessons have truly been learned and the new 'Humble One' will be sustained, but Mourinho's first moves have been sound ones. Of greater significance will be what he saw on the field and he will know that this was a mixed bag, despite the ultimately convincing scoreline. Mourinho thanked the ball boy for his quick thinking in the lead-up to Tottenham's second goalOlympiakos were not flattered by that two-goal advantage after 19 minutes.
