The new-look 24-team Club World Cup, the brainchild of FIFA president Gianni Infantino, would be the biggest so far, taking place across eight Chinese cities, and including eight teams from Europe with six from South America. Until now, the competition has featured seven teams. Infantino has been keen for FIFA to get more involved in club football to reduce its financial dependency on the four-yearly international World Cup.
At the prices, 'Oxford to Win & Under 3.5 Goals' looks good. The U's most certainly have the forward quality to overcome Saturday's visitors, though backing them to do so by running riot isn't an appealing option. After all, while Shrewsbury's lack of goals is a problem, they've not often conceded a great deal. Given what we've seen from the pair so far, they don't look like holding out for 90 minutes against a side of Oxford's quality, but they can certainly keep it respectable. After all, for all their attacking power, Oxford are yet to score more than three at home, while they're becoming specialists at shutting teams out, so a low-scoring win stands out as a viable option.
Ferretti is in the down, with the poor run of losing almost all match in the recent month. However, they were first in the recent Championship part, and should not be underdog with one of the rivals from the lower part of the competition league.
Manchester City forward Lauren Hemp, 19, was given her first England start and impressed, while 21-year-old club-mate Georgia Stanway was given the nod ahead of Arsenal's Jordan Nobbs in midfield. But despite changes to the side, Neville admitted the Lionesses need to "start beating these teams consistently" and it is "a big obstacle we have got to overcome". Our team is different. There are a lot of young players in there.
Fernandes has been widely reported as expected to leave Benfica in January having fallen out of favour under Bruno Lage. Parker: United are 10 players short from challenging again Transfer window LIVE - Man Utd chase Van de Beek, Chelsea make Gedson bid? Previous Premier League interest had been credited to West Ham United and Manchester United but now Sky Sports News are reporting that Chelsea have launched their own bid.
It was their first league title in the Premier League era. Given the novelty, one can understand Sir Alex Ferguson's good grace in letting the Blues have their day at Old Trafford. The Manchester United manager may not have realised though that he would be entering into a proper power struggle and that it would be 2007 before he won another title. Either way, the United fans in the Stretford End were not so welcoming and Chelsea were roundly booed onto the pitch.
Daniel Farke's side came close to equalising on the stroke of half-time though after the home side committed too many players forward for a Fred corner, Norwich broke and Todd Cantwell's goal-bound effort was superbly saved by David De Gea. The second half was a similar story with more one-way traffic.

McNeil comes in as the 11th youngest player to achieve the feat, fewer than three months behind Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs (20 years and eight days), who holds the record for most Premier League assists - and slightly under two years older than record-holder Michael Owen. Keen to catch up, at 18 years and 171 days, Arsenal's Bukayo Saka later became the youngest player to record consecutive Premier League assists since Everton's Francis Jeffers in April 1999.
I retired up front when I stopped playing competitively," Greenwood explained with a smile. But I was a number 10 rather than a number nine doing the hard miles. I saw myself as a bit like Dimitar Berbatov, just kind of floating around and dinking it in"Greenwood is a Manchester United fan and a keen footballer herself. She told BBC Sport: "I used to play pretty competitively, never at too high a level, but I would be training or playing six or seven times a week.
Rashford's United host Norwich this weekend, Abraham's Chelsea take on Burnley at Stamford Bridge, Aubameyang's Arsenal travel to Palace, and Ings and Southampton are at Vardy's Leicester. The Moyes bounce to continue?So far, so good for David Moyes, who has won two out of two without conceding a goal since returning to manage West Ham United. If you're tempted to make changes with the Friday night game in mind, you may be keen to hear that captain Mark Noble's two goals against Bournemouth took him to 45 Premier League goals, just two behind Paolo di Canio, who is the Hammers' record scorer in the competition.
The guests are inferior but I believe that after a balanced game they will be able to win and for this I am going to try with a DNB for them. The teams are Clyde and East Fife and have left for Scotland for the nation's L1. The home team after 13 games have 24 points and are 3 in the standings. They lost a game and won only 1 of the last 3 games. The guests have fewer points and come from a defeat but away from home they have won 4 games of the last 6 games and for this I try with this bet.
After a derby defeat that could have catastrophic consequences for their Premier League title defence, Manchester City will welcome the opportunity to leave their domestic woes behind them when the Champions League Group Stage resumes this week.
Tulevik will be meeting with the away team Kuressaare and this game we have given this game an under of 5.5 total goals as looking at at the last games this two teams have meet together they are not used of an over of 5.5 total goals and so this makes us to be very sure with this prediction
United, who were delayed arriving at Vicarage Road, went into the game on the back of a six-game unbeaten run in the Premier League. However, the defeat at the Hornets leaves them eighth on 25 points, their lowest points tally at this stage of a top-flight campaign since 1989-90. We were high in confidence because we've done well lately but it just wasn't there," Solskjaer added. There was no intent or urgency to make us deserve to win the game.
Watford, West Ham and Brighton - all within two points of the relegation zone - would breathe a huge sigh of relief if this table ends up being the final version. BBC Radio 5 Live's senior football reporter Ian Dennis did some of the research on this one. How about the teams promoted into the Premier League?In the past decade there has been a remarkable lack of difference at the top between the 37th game in the Championship - where we are now - and the final table.
Good morning and welcome Welcome to another day of rolling football coverage. We will bring you all the news as it breaks from the world of football but first here is a round up from the national papers. That's all for tonight That's a wrap on the day's football news. Let's hope for better news around the world tomorrow.
Few expected that “Ajax” will lose “Getafe” on the road, without having scored their “duty” goal, because in the group stage of the Champions League the Dutch distinguished themselves in all the guest matches. But the fact remains, the defeat of the Spaniards with a score of 0: 2 leaves no choice for “Ajax”. In the second leg, the hosts need to score three unanswered goals for a direct hit in the next stage. Myth or reality?
These two sides are in very different places this season, having each made bold moves with their new managers this summer. Nottingham Forest’s capture of the unknown Sabri Lamouchi has been a huge success, with his side in fifth place in a season which was seen as a write-off for the home side.
Western Stima will host Zoo Kericho for this fixture of the league. I believe, the hosts have a great chance to get all three points. Western Stima is very average team in this season. However, the hosts have advantage at home stadium. They are undefeated on the home ground. In previous game Western Stima is won 1-2 against weak Chemelil. Also, we have Zoo Kericho who's is also very average team in this league. However, the visitors are more vulnerable away from home. I think, they have a very difficult task in this match. In any case, the hosts will try to remain unbeaten at home. My pick - Western Stima to win.
They followed up a week later with domestic Super Cup success in a match played in the United Arab Emirates in front of thousands of Egyptian migrant workers. Failure to play in Monday’s derby leaves Zamalek open to stiff sanction but will not have any bearing on their next match on Friday, when they host holders Esperance of Tunisia in the first leg of the African Champions League quarter-finals.
Like Shakhtar, Atalanta are still in with a shout as far as making the qualifiers goes, but they must win this match and hope that Man City get the better of Zagreb. The second of those conditions seems more than reasonable, but beating Shakhtar on the road, quite simply, does not.
Well in this game surely it should be a lot of goals,Chelsea is in good shape and and after they beat the Spurs away their confidence is Even on higher level so I expect at least 3 goals to be scored from them tomorrow and on the other hand I m very convinced Southampton Will acre at least one goal cause they are in great scoring shape and Danny Ings is Just unstoppable and on fire, so I think he Will score a goal tomorrow and correct score at the end should be 3 1 or 4 1 for Chelsea or maybe 3 2
Where we play the best pick at this mach where we look see a best pick at the march and we will play the best pick at this mach and do the pick best for this now. We will look see minimal five goals at the mach what be this a great chance that we look get a great new 12.50 points to our order what be a new chance for our pick we play at the match now. We look a great play from Manchester City and a great new win from this team in full time. Happy and Joy!
With the Champions League last-16 second leg against Real Madrid next week, Guardiola will be wary of bringing back his star midfielder too quickly. If the double gameweek is too much to resist then Aguero may be your man. He's scored 22 goals in the league against City's next three opponents and the striker is now just one goal behind Jamie Vardy and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in the quest for a second golden boot.
I'm going 0-0 after 90 minutes and 1-1 AET. I feel like Arsenal will just pull through, which will be upsetting because I will get really excited about the prospect of them losing on penalties. I just see the big teams making the semis - they always do. AET - Arsenal to win on pens Leicester v Chelsea (FA Cup quarter-final, 16:00 BST)Apart from James Maddison, Leicester looked short of sharpness and fitness in their draw with Brighton on Tuesday.
I still expect Liverpool to win, but I am not expecting it to be easy for them. When you look at where both teams are, then of course Liverpool are the overwhelming favourites, but this is the derby and it is always tricky - whichever way you are looking at it. Lawro's prediction: 2-0Bobby's prediction: I could have gone for a 2-0 here, the second-most common home win result, but Liverpool keep on conceding.

And his semi-final winner against the Netherlands underlined why. Collecting Cristiano Ronaldo's quickly taken short corner, Maniche elected to have a pop at goal from the left corner of the box, with the ball curving into the top right corner past a stunned Edwin van der Sar.
Agrotikos Asteras will host Edessaikos for this fixture of the league. No doubt, the visitors have better team than their opponent. They have an effective attack. Also, Edessaikos are in better shape in the last matches. They are undefeated in their last 5 matches - 4 wins and 1 draw. However, this will not be an easy task. I expect, the hosts will try to provide a strong resistance. Of course, they have a very difficult task. In any case, A. Asteras is really better team at home. They probably will try to capitalize advantage on their pitch. My pick - A. Asteras to win.
Nam Dinh finished finished 11th last season in Vietnam V.League 1. They played two matches this season after all the games stopped due to Covid-19. They lost first game to Hanoi FC by 2-4 but Defeated Hong Linh Ha Tinh by 2-1 in the latest game. On The other Hand, Pho Hien finished second in Vietnam V.League 2 last season but failed to Promote to V.League 1 after lost to Thanh Hoa by 0-1.

Atletico endured another disappointing season, finishing 13th in the Brazilian first division, and they have not won the Minas Gerais state championship since 2017. Foreign coaches are the new trend in Brazilian football following the success of Jorge Jesus at Flamengo and Jorge Sampaoli at Santos. Portuguese Jesus took Flamengo to the Serie A and Copa Libertadores during six months in charge while Sampaoli led Santos to second place in the league with a much lower budget.
Pep Guardiola in any of his 381 games as a top-flight coach -- than Chelsea shows the Blues more than matched the champions. But it was not the first time Chelsea have tasted defeat this season in a match they could, and possibly should, have taken something from. Their 4-0 loss to Manchester United at Old Trafford on the opening day of the season would normally suggest an inept showing but Chelsea had more shots than the hosts, hitting the bar and post in the first half, and again more possession.
More meaningful discussions about how VAR will operate next season will be left until August's annual general meeting, when the three promoted clubs from the Championship will be present. Fifa took over direct responsibility of VAR from football rulemakers Ifab on 1 July and is expected to insist on greater consistency across more than 100 global leagues. The move was seen as a way of bringing the Premier League into line with other competitions.
Forest have lost two of their last three Championship matches. West Brom have won three of their last four matches in all competitions. Forest failed to win any of their last three encounters with West Brom. There is never a dull round in the Championship and week 33 offers up another delicious set of fixtures this weekend.
The Saints recorded a 0-3 road victory on the last day of the game against Norwich. Although the first half remained relatively silent, the guests came back to life after the break. One after the other, they scored three unanswered goals to secure the three points. Meanwhile, the Gunners lost 2-1 on the road last week to Brighton. The guests had scored the first goal of the match at the end of the 68th minute. However, seven minutes later, they tied, and in the 90th and 5th minute, Brighton scored the winner. They lost fifteen games this season. Arsenal is in tenth place on the table. They only won eight games this season. They have lost the last two games. I think there could be a tie in this game.
RB Leipzig welcome Paderborn to the Red Bull Arena this Saturday in Bundesliga action. The hosts are third in the table with their prospects of winning the title extremely slim as they're nine points behind runaway leaders, Bayern. Second place is within reach as they are only two points behind Dortmund but Leipzig must watch out for Gladbach and Leverkusen, both two points further back.

Nottingham Forest will be hosting Sheffield Wednesday in the 22nd round of matches in the Championship this Saturday. Going to the match, Nottingham have managed 34 points and are placed fifth while Sheffield Wednesday are on 33 points and placed eighth. Nottingham have not registered a win in their last three matches, while they have four in the last 11 matches.
psg and bvb have been scoring goals at an exponential rate of late scoring an average of 1.5 goals every match a fit that makes this encounter a likely even for goal rain. Haaland leads bvb strike force and with his impressive record of 8 goals in five and on the other side the combination of Neymar and Mbappe is also capable of scoring numerous goals. Both of these teams also enter this fixture on the dismal defensive side which raises the stakes of many goals been scored and conceded.I predict that at least three goals are to be scored
They begin this final game of the main season in sixth place and host struggling Pescara who are down in 16th. It's going to be a tense final day with just two points separating Chievo in sixth and tenth placed Empoli. The sides placed third to eighth will go into the play-offs so a win for Chievo will clinch their place and keep hopes alive of a return to Serie A.
Named the 2007 BBC African Footballer of the Year and the Caf African Player of the Year the following year, Adebayor's only silverware at club level was the 2011 Spanish Copa del Rey he won with Real Madrid. Despite his on-off relationship with the football authorities in Togo, he remains his country's all-time top scorer with 32 goals and played for them at their only World Cup appearance in 2006.
Barcelona could emerge as a wildcard option. ESTIMATED COST: £46M 37: Corentin Tolisso (Bayern Munich) WHY HE COULD MOVE Since the departure of Niko Kovac as Bayern coach, Tolisso's prospects have changed significantly. He has only started three games in 2020 and no longer has the confidence of Hans-Dieter Flick – not what he would have dreamed of when he left Lyon in the summer of 2017 to join one of the biggest clubs in the world.
That poor run includes being knocked out of the FA Cup on penalties by Premier League's basement club Norwich City. We will need our fans to push us forward. Tottenham is still a good team with a lot of good players," Nagelsmann said. They are dangerous with their counter attacks. They have a clear plan, to go as fast as possible.
Angers were one of the surprise teams to be sitting so far up the table early on in the campaign but that form quickly dissipated following their win over Toulouse (2-0) as they went four league games without a win. In this time Angers picked up the second least points of any Ligue 1 team but a win and a draw in their last two games before the international break have removed some of the worry from les Scoïstes.
Barclays also sponsor the FA Women's Super League and FA Girls' Football School Partnerships. Norway's other prospect. Erling Braut Haaland’s tally of 26 goals in 18 games for Red Bull Salzburg this season has seen the striker linked with Manchester United, Barcelona and Real Madrid. But the 19-year-old is not the only Norwegian making headlines, with a midfielder back home attracting interest from clubs across Europe.
