A survey by pollsters YouGov showed six out of 10 fans felt the system was working badly in the Premier League. At the beginning, (Italy) went through some turbulent times with some critics.

Meanwhile, Leeds come here with three straight wins to their name, including Saturday’s 2-1 victory at Luton. This could be another win for the Lillywhites against a bottom half side, but they will be wary of Reading after they won three home games on the spin.
We’re confident that under 2.5 goals will be produced in Saturday’s match and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-0 in favour of Vitoria Guimaraes. The hosts head into this match as the form favourites with three wins and two draws from their last six matches, with their only defeat coming at the hands of the league leaders Benfica. Santa Clara have lost four of their last five matches and despite some decent performances on the road, we expect Vitoria Guimaraes to just do enough to win Saturday’s clash.
Czech top league. Team Zlin Fastov will host team Pribram. Hosts are in the middle zone. They are coming after victory with team Opava. Guests are in the bottom zone.

Arsenal overcame struggling Bournemouth at Vitality Stadium to set up an FA Cup fifth-round trip to Portsmouth. Mikel Arteta's side were good value for their victory, the platform for progress into the next round built on first-half goals from Bukayo Saka and Eddie Nketiah. Bournemouth substitute Sam Surridge pulled a goal back deep into eight minutes of stoppage to give the scoreline a look of respectability and give Arsenal some late anxious moments, but in reality the Gunners were by far the superior team.
Valverde also questioned the merits of opening the competition up to Atletico and Real Madrid, who ended last season empty handed. Barca and Valencia qualify for the Super Cup as league and cup winners respectively, while Atletico earned one of the new berths due to coming second in La Liga. The last spot was intended for the cup runners-up but as Barca had already qualified, Real took the vacant place due to their superior cup record over Real Betis, last year's other losing semi-finalists.

Their game against Doncaster was called off by the club without the knowledge of Rovers or the EFL, with Wanderers having fielded just three senior outfield players in their heavy defeat at Tranmere just three days before.

They go into the weekend in eighth place and that is four places and the same number of points above their opponents. Parma are in good form at present with only one loss in their last six league games.

No-one will like our performance today," Setien told a news conference after the game, in which his side had 74% of possession. Valencia were committed, they closed us down and we have a lot of things to correct. As in their 1-0 win over Granada last week in Setien's first game in charge and the 2-1 victory over Ibiza in the Copa del Rey, Barca monopolised control of the ball but made hard work of opening up their opponents.
Hello everyone tipsters from this great game. For today I want to give you prediction about this game between this two teams from England Championship league.

Again in the Rio Olympics in 2016 with Portugal, he decided to wear the number 10 shirt and I think he started to see himself very much as someone who could perform in that playmaker role.

Dominating PortugalFernandes joined Sporting from Sampdoria for £7.

Very important match for Bank, where they are going to face one of the bottom table opponent, and should try to make another three points for the Europa league place fight.

Footballers, like the rest of us, are fallible: they peak and they trough, they have good days and bad days and, also like the rest of us, could do with a little cajoling or scolding now and again.

I had a fever, a headache and my eyes were burning. I already had symptoms during the night, shivering for cold. I got suspicious. I already had flu in January. I rang my family and they all had the same symptoms. We'd had a family dinner together a few days before. Since coronavirus was already big at that point in the media and people had already been infected in my area, I knew straight away what we all had.

Another type of my choice for tonight was from Europa League, we have a match between Sporting Lisbon and PSV Eindhoven. This is a match in which we do not have a clear favorite because one id of the other team is able to win. The hosts at this stage of the tournament take first place in the league table with 9 points. The results that the team has achieved in recent matches look good one defeat and Four Winds.
Ingolstadt will host 1860 Munchen for this fixture of the league. Hosts probably are favorites in this game. Ingolstadt have advantage at home stadium. Also, Ingolstadt is one of the best teams in this campaign. They are currently on the nd place with 33 points. Hosts are in solid shape. In any case, they will try to make a positive result. Also, we have Munich 1860 who's is very average team in this season. However, the visitors have better results in recent times. They are undefeated in their last 5 matches. Of course, Munich have a very difficult task. Nevertheless, my pick - Munchen to win.
