Mauricio Pochettino is willing to look outside the Premier League's top six for his next managerial job. Pochettino has not worked since he was sacked by Tottenham in November 2019. The 48-year-old has been heavily linked with Newcastle, providing their proposed Saudi Arabia-backed takeover goes through. And the Argentine has made it clear the project placed in front of him is more important than the club's status in determining his next move.
We are not winning in this moment, so we must try to recover our performance and always have a winning and ambitious mentality. With three points more, maybe we are in seventh position in the table.

This game does look like a likely home win with the hosts having 41 points won so far this season being just one point behind the play-off places for promotion right now, still they have been conceding quite a couple of goals in recent home games played by them this season, and when they played away from home at Barnsley earlier this season the game ended in a high scoring 2-2 draw in the end so over 3.5 goals covered back than.
The unprecedented shutdown of world sport in response to the coronavirus spread that has infected more than 134,000 people and killed around 5,000 also prompted organisers to postpone the Formula One motor races in Vietnam and Bahrain.

We were annoyed but we quickly let it go. We changed focus quickly towards tomorrow's match," said Ten Hag. A win would ensure top place in the group for Ajax, who have 10 points from five games, but a draw could see them usurped by Chelsea and finish second.

He has said he will not cancer define him as he gears up for his United debut. Yeah, it's a part of me and I'm not going to hide from it," he said. But that's what it is: it's a part of me, it doesn't define me. The cancer is something that has happened, but it's not going to be what people remember me for.
It's a great measure for us and test for us. We had a really good game at Anfield and we should have come out of that game with a draw. We're playing at home so the intensity of the crowd should help us as well. My message to the fans) would be to be as loud and as proud as possible.

His latest clinical effort was his 10th in the league this term. Michael Owen's astonishing effort in 1997-98, when he scored 18, is the only time a teenager has done better since the Premier League was formed in 1992. The intricate close passing with Martial which created the shooting opportunity underlined that Greenwood is much more than a goalscorer. It felt like he was taking responsibility when other, more experienced, team-mates had not.
Wazza scored for Everton at Elland Road and I was on the bench – and that whetted the appetite. Then it was West Ham away, we were dominating the game, we were comfortable but it got to 4-3. I came on and I repaid him [Venables] with my first touch which was straight to West Ham's Paolo Di Canio!Luckily he put it over the bar. One of the lads asked me afterwards 'did you have a bet on 4-4?'. That was the start of it all and 18 years on I'm still playing.
One more interesting match from Germany 3rd Bundesliga and new duel where I will bet on goals, what is for me very real and ok to expect. So, let's start from Viktorija Koln and that is team who is in last official match against this rival played match in who was even 4-0, so I believe that this duel can be similar, at least. Home team is in last two matches played 4-2 and 2-1, while Zwikau is on same level of football - in last two matches, 2-2 and 4-2. Yes, over 3 is ideal for this match, surely it is.
The hosts have beaten each of the league’s bottom seven, so they should be confident against one of the division’s worst away sides.

Not only was he able to sniff out danger, see danger and stop it, he was able to get them going forward. It's baffling to see what Maurizio Sarri did to him at Chelsea. Shearer: "I don't think I have seen a guy cover as much grass as Kante has. At the end of games I have looked at him and he doesn't even look like he's sweating. It's staggering how he is able get up and down and the fitness he shows.

Can Liverpool go a whole Premier League season unbeaten? Can they eclipse Manchester City's record total of 100 points in 2017/18?While these seem very real possibilities, other figures are already set in stone. Liverpool have gone 38 league games without defeat since they lost at Manchester City last January. In the same period Spurs have lost 16 matches, including three to Klopp's team. The champions-elect have amassed 104 points across that period, the biggest by any team in the competition's history - and they are the first team in Europe's top-five leagues to win 20 of their first 21 games.

The Hammers boss is yet to win in 16 attempts at the Gunners, with his similarly miserable records against Liverpool and Chelsea following closely behind. Moyes' record of 12 defeats and four draws against Arsenal is also not quite as bad as Harry Redknapp, who lost all 15 of his games away at Manchester United. Thankfully for Moyes, a visit to United on the penultimate day of the season, where he has not won in 12, is the only away encounter with the mythical 'big four' still to come.
Speaking on BT Sport, Keown said: "It was the first time I felt that the players were not responding to the manager and the manager did not know what changes to make. There were so many disappointments in that Arsenal performance. There were so many unprofessional performances from players. Such a poor game for Arsenal. If you break down the performance you could have looked at every single player and say that they could have all done more.
I think about it (the slip) most days," Gerrard said on former team mate Jamie Carragher's Greatest Game podcast. A Liverpool team winning the league would help how I feel for sure.

Union Berlin will against Schalke 04 in match Germany Bundesliga. My prediction this match could be the end both teams to score due to Union Berlin on last 2 match in league always to make score. Beside that Union Berlin on this match will play in home match and surely Union Berlin have chance to make score again on this match. Meanwhile, Schalke 04 on last 2 match only can make score in 1 match. Nevertheless, I think the end of match that both teams can make to score due to Schalke 04 more strong rather than Union Berlin. Beside that Schalke 04 have better rank in league and surely this match will have to score from both teams.

Ian Holloway was appointed as new Grimsby Town manager this week, something of a coup for The Mariners. They then proceeded to win their first game in 12 attempts, putting themselves just a point behind their opponents this weekend with two games in hand. Whether that victory was a result of the new manager bounce that so many sides benefit from or if there is something a little more substantial for the new manager to build on remains to be seen.
Kayserispor have collected just eight points away from home, making them the poorest team on the road. Here they head to a must win game, away to a side with the best home form in the league, and seeking a win to be declared champions. With the weak defence they have had in the season, especially away from home, we don’t see Kayserispor completely locking out Istanbul Basaksehir, though they have scored in most of their away matches. On the other hand, Istanbul Basaksehir have conceded in most of their home matches. With this in mind, and considering the pressure Istanbul Basaksehir have ahead of this game, we will go with a 2-1 win for the hosts here.
