There are few better things to watch in the game than Kevin de Bruyne at his very best. That was illustrated on Sunday as he put in a masterful display against Arsenal, scoring two goals and providing an assist as Manchester City won 3-0. The Belgium playmaker's contribution means he has now scored or assisted 16 goals in 16 appearances - so is he on course for his best season in a Manchester City shirt? Meanwhile, from bookies' favourite to be relegated to flying highest of the teams that came up from the Championship, Sheffield United are proving the doubters wrong - and then some.
Mahrez cut in from the left to equalise after half an hour and when Ricardo Pereira fouled Raheem Sterling to concede a penalty, Gundogan slotted past Kasper Schmeichel. De Bruyne set up Jesus for the third, his 13th assist of the season, to confirm City's superiority. Evenings like this are humbling and good for you, because our young squad can learn from it," Rodgers, whose side face Liverpool next, said.
Both clubs have made it clear. Liverpool manager) Jurgen Klopp has made it clear. So I would have no objection to the games being played at our clubs' home grounds - both the derby at Goodison and Liverpool's games at Anfield. Liverpool lead the table by 25 points with nine games remaining. Their first match will be at Everton on 21 June, when they could clinch a first title in 30 years. Merseyside Police said that "in relation to crime and disorder" it has "no objections" to the game being played at Goodison Park, and that it would be "ready to provide whatever policing is required".
I'm not saying they are the examples that should be followed, but there could be something quite spectacular about football fans coming together after this crisis is over. It would bring some joy back to the nation as football does impact so many people. Neville has already opened his two hotels in Manchester to the support staff working during the virus, giving them free beds.

The chemistry of a successful team takes time to foster, and the 47-year-old was not been afforded that time. Mauricio Pochettino (C), Manager of Tottenham Hotspur and Diego Simeone (R), Manager of Atletico de Madrid look on during the 2016 International Champions Cup Australia match between Tottenham Hotspur and Atletico de MadridGetty Images By any reasonable measure, Pochettino should have had enough credit in the bank to address the decline – a decline that was largely not of his making.
Championship of France. Bordeaux meets with Strasbourg. In the match, I propose to play a total bet of more than 2 goals per match. In my opinion, teams should take this indicator today. In personal meetings, teams only once played a total loss (I take the last five matches). In the championship, Bordeaux in his matches (again the last five) plays for a total of 2 or more goals per game. Strasbourg gives out pretty productive matches, and there are 6 goals per match. So I think today will also be a productive match. Strasbourg are fighting for survival, so both need points. In personals, the total was practically not punched, but still worth a try.
Inter are battling with Juventus for the league title and Conte knows the difference Eriksen could make if he joins in January, so it makes sense for the Nerazzurri to pay a fee to bring the Danish playmaker in to strengthen their title bid. However, Inter will need Eriksen to rediscover his form quickly, as he has not been at his best this season in England.
Lawro's prediction: 2-0Serge's prediction: 1-0 Norwich v WolvesWolves were beaten last week, for the first time since September, but anyone who watched their game against Tottenham will see that they did not deserve to be. Norwich also played very well, and picked up a very good point, at Leicester. People rave about the way they played in their win over Manchester City in September, but that display was up there too - the Canaries were well-drilled, and disciplined.
Home team is this season very good in all lines, but in the same time, this is a team who is often in situation that they are receive goals at home and then, after that, they start to play series football and beat rivals. We will see similar situation not so long ago, against Augsburg, when they are in problems, 1-3, but at the end, they are won 5-3. Holland is great in attack and he will be again in team and this time. Union maybe can score one goal here and nothing more than that. Over 3,5 is ok.
semifinal of Croatian cup and first of all I think this is going to be very tough game for both teams in which I do not expect a lot of goals for sure because first of all this is very important game for both squads and since it is their first competitive game after a long break I do not think any team will attack and open on start so I think one scored goal is most probably decide the winner but I do not want to predict which team is going to score that goal, for me this is much safer bet
Jose Mourinho will aim to take Tottenham into the Champions League knockout stages by beating Olympiakos in his first home match in charge. Mourinho, who won the tournament with Porto and Inter Milan, replaced the sacked Mauricio Pochettino last week and won 3-2 at West Ham on Saturday. Spurs are second in Group B and will qualify if they beat the Greek side. With these boys I will never be afraid of a Champions League match," said Mourinho.
I see odds fantastic for taking the away win here in this one with the hosts losing form in recent weeks with 3 losses for them in the league at this moment and remain with only 19 points won so far this season just 5 points above the relegation zone at this moment losing against two teams from the relegation zone lately, last round were demolished 3-0 away at an average at best Udinese side and lost 2-1 away at struggling Genoa as well lately as well as a 2-1 loss at home to Napoli who is having a really poor season.

But we can’t help ourselves: like a child handed a big bag of sweets after an hour on the naughty step, we’re simply thrilled that the Champions League has returned to entertain us all. And boy is it back with a bang. Liverpool return to the site of some game or other last season as they face Atletico Madrid in the Wanda Metropolitano, a tie that does look smashing on paper but actually might be a bit of a dud, given how rampant Liverpool are and how limp Atletico have become.

We played against the Brazil of Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Roberto Carlos and Dunga," he recalls.

Manchester City may have been slightly below par at times this season, but they should still have enough about them to get the three points on Saturday. Leicester have lost four of their last five away games against last season's Premier League top six, and with two of Man City's last three home games ending 2-1 we think that's the best option in the correct score market.

But Casemiro prefers to focus on Bale's incredible feats, such as his breathtaking goal against Barcelona in the 2014 Copa del Rey final and his decisive strikes against Atletico Madrid and Liverpool in the 2014 and 2018 Champions League finals. If he thinks it's ok to do these things then we should respect that," added the Brazilian.
While Peterborough have been on the slide of late, Gillingham have quietly improved. Under Steve Evans, the Gills seem to have settled quite nicely after a relatively and up and down start. By going six games unbeaten, three of which they've won, Saturday's visitors have climbed to a respectable 13th position, which on the face of it, doesn't look overly impressive, but thanks to the tight nature of the division this term, they're just three points shy of the top six.

City immediately signalled their intention to appeal to Cas.

Players like De Bruyne need to be winning trophies on a regular basis - receiving awards at the Ballon d'Or, and not being dragged off on a manager's tactical whim. And certainly, not when the likes of Real Madrid and Barcelona are watching every move. Did you know?

Vysshaya Liga Reserve - Round 13. This is a league in which placement is not important because there is no relegation from the league. Reserve teams play in this league.

The Warm-Up has a solution that *might* see the tournaments concluded. One that will draw the biggest TV audience.

Place eight goals evenly around the pitch and allow each team to field five players.

I have never had the chance to say thank you to the people who do that. It touches my heart. When you come to another country and the people embrace you and like you, give you praise and even sing your name, it is unbelievable for me and my brother.
