And, with Napoli 3-0 up against Genk at half-time, a nervous second period looked a strong possibility for the holders. But then, on 57 minutes, Trent Alexander-Arnold set an attack in motion, and when Andy Robertson found Mane - formerly of Salzburg - Stankovic rushed out unnecessarily, over came the cross, and Keita - formerly of Salzburg - headed home.
B. Monchengladbach had an excellent first part of the season which they finished last year on 2nd place ahead top teams like Dortmund or Bayern Munich and just 2 points behind the league leaders from Leipzig as they have 35 points won so far this season and their attack created and scored plenty of goals this season, 33, while they do have the best defensive record in the league with only 18 goals conceded by them so far but that has to do with the fact they have one of the best keepers in the league in Summer.
Liverpool host Watford in the early kick-off and will be expected to get another three points before heading off to Qatar. If that is the case then that will put a bit more pressure on Leicester to continue their impressive form. They have won their last eight league matches playing some fantastic football.

I think this is going to be an even, tight game," he added. We have some young players. If they're going to learn to play these games I think it's a great start for them. I'm not expecting them to dominate but we should compete and challenge. If we went with every first team player then maybe we have a better chance to win the game.
Eintracht Frankfurt will most likely need to win this competition or the Europa League to qualify for Europe next season. They did well to go to Salzburg last week and avoid defeat and have had a rest since that game.

This game is of tremendous importance to both sides, as they come into this game level on points.

As for the final score, we're going for a 2-1 win for the hosts, as they've managed to score 2.33 goals on average in their last trio of home games- letting in 1.33- whilst the visitors have netted an average of 0.83 in their previous six away days and have conceded an average of two.

There’s little hope in Milan’s supposed golden season. The path had cleared for the Rossoneri to launch a top-four push, but they find themselves 11 points shy of the Champions League spots in December. Milan’s fall from grace is continuing, but this will be a major test of how far they’ve dropped.
Premier League footballers should "take a pay cut and play their part" during the coronavirus pandemic, says health secretary Matt Hancock. Some clubs have furloughed non-playing staff but not looked at players' wages.

There is a lot at stake in this final regular season game. Chinandega could yet make it into the play-offs and Deportivo Ocotal might end up being relegated. The home side are in poor form with a string of losses but aren't that bad at home Ocotal ended a long run without a win with a vital win over Juventus Managua in their last game.

If we can get 10,000 then that’s the budget close to being sorted," he said. Bass believes there is talent on the island capable of playing in the professional game. In the past, promising Manx footballers have left to play in America. I'm hoping the launch of FC Isle of Man will stop players believing the United States is the be-all and end-all," added Bass. How realistic is the new club's target of playing in the EFL in 15 years' time?"People will look at it and go 'it's not going to happen, that's ridiculous'," added Jones.

Kortrijk welcomes Standard in the 24th round of the Jupiler League and it is a good question which side will show up today. Kortrijk has been inconsistent and they have 4-3-5 at home this season. They recently took a 2:2 draw at home vs Brugge in an inspired performance but it is a good question how much has Brugge applied themselves with a huge point gap on top. Kortrijk had problems with much weaker teams this season. Standard is ranked 4th in the league but it is mostly due to the good home game and much less on their away performances. Standard has 4-3-4 away from home but they do well against Kortrijk with 4 wins from the last 5 matches played.

Just one more effort is needed for West Bromwich Albion. They should have clinched promotion already but two draws and a loss in their last three games have seen them stagger rather than march towards the Premier League. A home game against a QPR side with little to play for is an ideal final fixture. Their home record is good and QPR aren't always at their best away from home with only 23 goals scored. It might not look pretty but Albion can get the vital win.
Reds went to Qatar to win, and they did' Media playback is not supported on this device No pass, no porridge - Klopp denied entry at breakfast Winning the Club World Cup was the only thing that mattered to Liverpool in Doha. To be part of the first Liverpool team to win that competition was a huge incentive for Klopp and his players, and they were absolutely desperate to do it. I know exactly how they felt, because it was the same for me when I was part of the Reds side beaten in the 2005 final.
Looks like that Nice Guy stuff was all an act. You monster, Juan. Still, any flickering happiness United might be feeling at their progress through to the next round will have been tempered by the injury to Marcus Rashford.

Odds are nice here for Anderlecht to be winning this game by at least 2 goals difference after a poor last season in which they failed to qualify even for an Europa League place at the end of the championship group now they find themselves in big danger of finishing the normal season in the top 6 teams as they had really few points won after a dozen games played in the league in this start of the season but started winning games more recently and their opponents today are not that strong or in good form so will back the hosts.

Resumption of the season in Romania after a three-month break. The two teams ended up here in the relegation round. Sepsi finished ninth, Hermannstadt Zehneter with 8 points less. Sepsi also played draws in both games of this round, Hermannstadt is still undefeated with a win and a draw, and here too I assume a draw at restart. Both teams are fighting for survival, but the home team has played much better lately and has not lost in the last 4 games. I think they will continue at a good pace and both the team should have a cagey affair here
Simon Gleave, head of sports analysis at Gracenote, says: "There is probably not much difference between A and B for Wales pre-draw. If either the Czech Republic or Austria ended up in Group A though, Wales would not be the outsiders to progress. Italy will play all their three group games in Rome's Stadio Olimpico with the others in Baku's Olympic Stadium. Azerbaijan is the only host who cannot qualify Denmark's three games will be in Copenhagen's Parken Stadium - the rest will be in St Petersburg's Krestovsky Stadium (a random draw decided whether Denmark or Russia would host their meeting)The other home nation still keeping a close eye on the draw are Northern Ireland.

This is only match from Belgium Pro league who will be played tonight and I believe and in the same time, I hope that we will see a lot of goals in this duel. So, it is clear and real to expect something like that, when we just know how this teams are played in last period. Home team is played in even five of last six matches with three or more goals and similar facts we can said and for Mechelen.

Klopp has a strong point that there is no sense in having a winter break - and urging clubs to take advantage of it and not play friendly games - if the players are then asked to play in a Cup tie during that period. But there is also no escaping the fact that Klopp's action is sending a clear message that he and the club simply don't care about winning the FA Cup.
Fostiras will host Ethnikos Piraeus for this fixture of the league. Both sides are very average teams in this season. However, both teams are in better shape in the last matches. I think, both teams have the motivation to make a positive result. Also, I think, the visitors have a chance to get all three points. Yeah, they have a very difficult task on the road. However, Ethnikos Piraeus have the potential to pick up the victory. They are undefeated in their last 5 matches. Also, we have Fostiras who's is very average team in recent times. They have only 1 victory in their last 5 matches. My pick - Ethnikos Piraeus to win.
