Domzale were one of the league favorites, and the third team behind Olimpija and Maribor for long period of time. However, team experienced financial issues in this season, and now are fighting to avoid relegation from the league. They are again second bottom team, after Triglav made victory in the Velenje against Rudar.
As they often are on the continent, Shakhtar have been anything but easy to beat this time around; they're disciplined at times and certainly don't lack the attacking quality required to hurt teams, though they have struggled to get their heads in front, winning just one of their five Group C matches. That said, their only victory did come away against Wednesday's opponents, so the Ukrainians should be feeling confident, especially since Atalanta have been very poor on the road, losing both of their travelling matches in this competition.
We’re confident that under 2.5 goals will be scored this weekend and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-0 in favour of Porto. The visitors arrive as the clear form favourites and with an excellent record against their hosts. Porto haven’t been scoring a lot of goals on the road this season but have managed to keep clean sheets in half of their away games and we expect the Portuguese giants to do the same again on Sunday.
The Londoners started brightly and grabbed a 22nd minute lead through N'Golo Kante, who beat Ederson after latching on to a superb through ball from Mateo Kovacic. But City struck back twice before the break with a fortunate deflected shot from Kevin De Bruyne and then a fine, solo strike from Riyad Mahrez.
United are the only team to take points off Liverpool this season, drawing 1-1 at Old Trafford, and Berbatov believes they can cause problems for Juergen Klopp's relentless side who have a 14-point lead at the top of the table. Liverpool are so far ahead in terms of points and the way they play football," the Bulgarian said.
Their defensive performance is impressive and will improve further if goalkeeper David de Gea can recapture his best form. By contrast, Tottenham will be encouraged by their ruthlessness in front of goal, but need more ammunition from their creative players. Spurs can also point to an unusually high concession rate from the big chances they have faced - something Hugo Lloris' return from injury should help improve.
Well things are clear here. Mainz only need one point to secure their survival but even if they lost both of their games they still can secure survival because it is difficult to expect that Dusseldorf will win both of them. So because of that I don't think that they will be under much of a pressure here.
Mina had only been on the pitch for two minutes when he scored the goal, which takes Celta out of the relegation zone on goal difference. Real had the better chances, with Hazard lively on his return, Gareth Bale going close and Ramos having a goal disallowed. But Celta stayed in the game and made Zinedine Zidane's side pay with their late goal. Real, who have only won one league title since 2012, are one point clear of Barca with 14 La Liga games remaining.
With time ticking away and players such as Leicester City's Islam Slimani and former Newcastle and West Brom forward Salomon Rondon linked, the Old Trafford club were unable to prise Norway forward Joshua King from Bournemouth in the early stages of deadline day, before news of talks with Ighalo emerged. Rumoured interest from other Premier League clubs threatened to kick-start a tug-of-war - but Ighalo only wanted United.
Let's take a look at the Czech Republic league where by karvina will be playing Budejovice as they look to get back to winning ways after there last time defeat. They will be cautious of there defense and look to improve it they have failed to keep any clean sheet in there last 2 games.

Uefa is working to plans that would see the Champions League final end the 2019-20 season on 29 August. European football's governing body will meet on 23 April for more discussions about how to complete a campaign which has been disrupted by coronavirus. It is likely one decision will be to agree that leagues could finish early, although only with Uefa's approval. But the idea is still to finish the season as a whole at the end of August, with all outstanding games played.
Abraham missed the Blues' home defeat by West Ham with a hip injury and put them ahead against Villa with a firm header from Reece James' cross. After Villa equalised against the run of play when Trezeguet bundled in, Chelsea regained the lead shortly after the restart when Abraham neatly chested Willian's cross into the path of Mason Mount who thumped in a volley. Chelsea, like they did in the first half before Trezeguet's leveller, dominated possession and territory as they looked to increase their advantage.
And strict hygiene protocols remain firmly in place, meaning - amongst other measures - warm-ups were staggered, while coaching staff and substitutes wore masks and were all separated by two metres as they took their place on the sidelines. In general, though, it appeared to be another success as Germany lead the way for Europe's top leagues to follow in staging football during the ongoing pandemic.
Japan's FC Tokyo, meanwhile, picked up their first win in the competition thanks to Leandro's late goal against Australian debutants Perth Glory in Group F. The Brazilian's curling effort from distance eight minutes before the end gave Kenta Hasegawa's side three points to go with the single point earning in their draw with Ulsan Hyundai last week.
Norwich suffered their 12th home defeat of the Premier League campaign, their joint-most in a league campaign in the club's history (also 12 in 1946-47 in the Third Division South). Wood has scored three of Burnley's four goals against Norwich in the Premier League this season - the only player to score more for the club against an opponent in the same Premier League campaign is Graham Alexander (four versus Hull in 2009-10).
Wolves drew 1-1 with their hosts in three of their last four Premier League away games, and with Bournemouth scoring 1.33 goals and conceding 1.13 goals on average at home, the statistics point us in the direction of a 1-1 final scoreline between the teams this weekend, in a repeat result of the teams' last meeting at the Vitality Stadium in February.
Liverpool plan to take up an option to extend defender Dejan Lovren's contract by another year and keep him until summer 2022. The Reds will extend the Croatia international's stay at the club if he is still at Anfield by the end of the summer transfer window. Russian side Zenit St Petersburg are interested in Lovren but have yet to make contact with the Reds. The 31-year-old joined Liverpool from Southampton for £20m in July 2014.
England came through Euro 2020 qualifying to become one of the top seeds for next summer's finals, while Wales' five-match unbeaten run helped them qualify second from Group E. Both Gareth Southgate and Ryan Giggs integrated a number of young players into their teams during qualification. The Three Lions scored 37 goals, while Wales had one of the best defensive records, conceding six goals in the eight qualifiers.
WHO IS INTERESTED? It’s almost inevitable: as soon as a young player shines in the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich take an interest in them. Havertz is no different and the Bavarian club have been following him for almost two years now. He was even close to signing for Bayern last summer. But the German press have been pretty clear about the situation: Bayern will make signing him a priority for the summer transfer window.
Kilmarnock's approach increasingly allowed Celtic defenders to step out as they had little to contend with. It proved key as Simunovic nodded Greg Taylor's cross back to Edouard, who outmuscled Kirk Broadfoot to net the second. The second half was a procession towards Kilmarnock's goal as Celtic searched for the crucial third. That task became more straightforward when Power received a second yellow after tackling Jeremie Frimpong.
The season has yet to start and so far two of the planned 22 races have been cancelled -- the Australian opener and May's Monaco showcase -- and six postponed with no action likely before the European summer. Formula One has said teams will continue to use this year's cars in 2021. We're also talking about pushing back a further year the new regulations, because in my mind it would be totally irresponsible to have the burden of development costs in 2021," Horner told the BBC.
The 10 is such a big deal because you're going to make history as the first team to do it. They money you earn from football will go over time, but no one can take away history," says Miller. Stein, who scored the 1975 title-clinching goal in a 1-1 draw with Hibernian, adds: "There was a lot at stake and it was such a relief, for the team and especially the supporters. It's always about trying to outdo Celtic'The Lions' record stood unmatched for 23 years.
Had they beaten Bournemouth and Saints at Stamford Bridge like they really should have done, then they would be up with Leicester and we would be talking about the top four being a done deal. Chelsea are still in the driving seat at the moment, though, because they have got the points on the board, which is a big thing. It will come down to them and United for fourth, but I think the Blues will hang in there.

Match between the best two teams at Czech Rep. Both teams are having a great season especially Slavia Praha. There isn't much difference between them when it comes to the quality for sure , I would even dare to say that Plzen are the better team even though Slavia are in front of them with +6 pts. This two teams played a match just a few weeks ago and it finished 0-0 I expect to see same scenario today too (one boring match, without many chances). Plzen are under pressure if they want that 1st place while Slavia Praga I think will settle in and for a draw at this one.

They never complain, they win games, they hopefully have a huge impact on a football pitch and I think that's why I'd be happy to be a donkey. Whereas a fox is more cunning, someone who sniffs around the six-yard box, a fox in the box. I think a donkey and a fox is a nice turn, but you don't get these kinds of partnership anymore. It's a dying art. If we didn't get on, he would have tore into me'Conversation then turns to the selfish mentality of strikers and how they only really look out for number one.
Keflavik finished fifth in this league last season and lost a possible 8-point increase. Afturelding finished eighth last season in an exciting event, but only one point ahead of two places of relegation Keflavik is a clear favorite, but I think the underdogs will surprise on the first day and it is a good pick.
Arrizabalaga had earlier denied another Brighton substitute in Aaron Connolly, who turned and shot from close range while Chelsea also had several chances to close out the game. Earlier, Chelsea had stepped off the gas pedal following their goal and nearly paid the price before the break but Arrizabalaga produced another acrobatic save to deny Leandro Trossard.
The Hammers will hope that by the time this game kicks off, Villa will have lost at Everton and Bournemouth at Manchester City. More points earned by them would put additional pressure on West Ham and Watford. West Ham have only won five home league games this season but two of those have come in the last four.

The last time these two sides met at this venue the points were shared and five of the duo’s last six encounters have produced over 2.5 goals and have seen both teams score, so you can see why we are expecting goals from Friday’s clash. The form of both teams was hit and miss towards the end of 2019 with Telstar picking up two wins, two draws, and two defeats, while Eindhoven lost three times drew once and won twice but remain in the KNVB Beker, unlike Friday’s hosts.
Danish side Brondby have quarantined 13 people, including a player and their assistant coach, after former Denmark international Thomas Kahlenberg was diagnosed with coronavirus. Brondby director of communications Christian Schultz says Kahlenberg contracted the virus in Amsterdam last weekend and was at Brondby's game against Lyngby on Sunday. Defender Joel Kabongo, 21, is in quarantine alongside assistant coach Martin Retov, while Lyngby also have three players in isolation.
The hosts are hoping that they’re starting to turn a corner ahead of this huge clash. While they are in the relegation race, they moved out of the bottom three thanks to their 2-2 draw with Hull at the weekend. That was a fourth draw in five matches for the hosts, who have started to show some consistency. Will that be enough this week?

Liverpool were undermined by Adrian's error for Willian's first goal and by the returning Chelsea keeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, who belied his previous poor form this season with a string of crucial blocks. Klopp can take heart from the development of youngsters Neco Williams and Curtis Jones and this was not a performance on a par with the abysmal effort at Vicarage Road. And, in his absence, Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson's importance as a leader and midfield operator has been underscored.
Fiorentina are not having the best season so far and in the Serie A they are only on the 14th place. But at home they have only lost 4 games so far this season. In the Coppa Italia they are also a difficult team to defeat at home losing only 3 of the last 20 matches in regular time.
Fenerbahce's sporting director Damien Comolli is said to have flown to London earlier this week to discuss a potential loan deal with the Gunners. Paper Round's view: Ozil has struggled to find a consistent level of form throughout his time in north London, but his performances have completely deteriorated over the last year or so.
Something would have been checked, at least, given its significance in deciding the 2011-12 league title. And herein lies an issue for many supporters. Preventing fans from celebrating a goal to its fullest falls behind getting a decision correct in the importance stakes, but it remains a problem nevertheless.
In this match, the Empoli team is chasing a place in the playoffs, this match is of great importance for them, they practically have to win and it will not be easy for them because their opponent is Benevento, which secured a return to the first league.
I know that we were going through a difficult time and the club decided to make a decision to change manager. David Moyes knows the club and he knows a lot of the players and the players he worked with - myself, Manu, Angelo, Arthur, Cress, Dec, Reidy, Michail and Zaba - really liked and respected him and the way he worked when he was here. He got players playing to their full potential and I hope and believe he can do it again.

Ancelotti: I have no idea about Zlatan's plans Carlo Ancelotti says he has no idea what Zlatan Ibrahimovic plans to do next after leaving LA Galaxy at the end of the MLS season. He is a good friend of mine. I have trained a lot of fantastic players. I know he finishes his period in the United States, I don’t know what his idea is.
It has been my dream to be here at Chelsea and play week in, week out and to have a contract for another five-and-a-half years is living the dream again. James, who has been with Chelsea since the age of eight, spent last season on loan at Wigan and missed just one league match. He didn’t feature for Chelsea at the start of the season due to an ankle injury, but has started the last three games in all competitions.

And should he end up on the sidelines of the Juventus Stadium, there will of course be fascination concerning his relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo, given his championing of Lionel Messi. You would not totally rule out Barcelona, given the uncertainty of their current leadership, also making a pitch for Guardiola and despite the extra stress he felt leading his home side, the chance to link up with Messi once more may prove attractive.
