He is a future leader, a future captain, maybe, of England, Manchester United, who knows?"Rashford's intervention has been part of a wider contribution to social debate by high-profile footballers. Raheem Sterling, Tyrone Mings and Troy Deeney have also been prominent amid the Black Lives Matter campaign, which saw every player from all four clubs involved in yesterday's re-opening of the Premier League take a knee before kick-off.
Real Oviedo will host Tenerife for this fixture of the league. I believe, Real Oviedo have a very difficult task in this season. They are no longer a major threat for big clubs. Nevertheless, Oviedo is better team at home. I think, the hosts will try to make a positive result. Of course, this will not be an easy task. Also, we have Tenerife who's is very average team in this campaign. Tenerife are undefeated in their last 5 matches. However, Tenerife is also better team at home. In any case, I expect, this will be tense match. I think, the hosts will try to break the poor series.
Like Sociedad, Osasuna have also won just one of their last five La Liga matches, and they go into this Matchday 18 clash after suffering their fourth defeat of the campaign away to Atletico Madrid (2-0) last weekend.
Vikingur and NSI Runavik were the teams playing a high scoring football in the previous season in the league. Vikingur took the 5th place last season, they were averaging almost two goals per game.

Bale held a fan's Welsh flag emblazoned with the message 'Wales. Golf. Madrid. In that order' after victory over Hungary on Tuesday night which became the talk of the Spanish press in the following days.

We’re a big club, have got good finances but the longer you’re out the more you suffer,” Solskjaer said this week. So it’s an ambition to get back into the Champions League – for footballing reasons and financially it’ll help the club," he said. Leaders Liverpool could set a new top-flight record for consecutive wins if they beat Watford away on Saturday.
Aves score an average of 1.00 goals per home game and concede an average of 1.29 goals while Portimonense score an average of 0.63 goals per away game and concede an average of 1.38 goals, so you can see why we have backed a final scoreline of 1-1 this weekend. The hosts’ home matches have produced an average of 2.29 total goals while Portimonense’s away games produced an average of 2.00 total goals, adding further weight to our prediction for a 1-1 draw on Saturday.

Leap year day a step too far for LiverpoolArsenal breathed a rather large sigh of relief on Saturday - the club itself tweeting "phew" - as Liverpool fell five games short of matching the Gunners' top-flight record 49-game unbeaten run. Not many would have seen that run ending at strugglers Watford, who began the match 55 points behind Jurgen Klopp's leaders before inflicting a 3-0 defeat. That's the heaviest loss suffered by a side top of the table against one in the relegation zone since 1985, when Leicester beat Manchester United by the same scoreline.

With it, he managed a single dangerous cross as the team got desperate in the dying stages.

Even if we play without the public in the stands, people have football again," he said. The emotional part of the human being is sometimes more important than the physical. It’s important people feel hope in their life, [they might think] it’s better now they’re playing football. In Portugal it’s a funny thing. Before we stopped the league, the league’s plan was to play behind closed doors with no people in the stands.
Santander is last in the table, but collected 4 points in the last two games before the Corona break and is now 7 points behind the save zone. Lugo has 6 points more, but also occupies a relegation place and is in 20th place and 2 points behind the safe places. I'm taking a draw in this game, which is extremely important for both teams as both are both in a relegation zone. Racing santander has 9 draws at home in 15 games played. Lugo has 7 draws in the 15 trips. Three of the last five between these two teams ended draw.
Whatever lens you view it through, Saturday's game pits two relatively toothless attacks against each other at the Vitality Stadium, and that in turn makes the under 2.5 total goal market an attractive option for the fixture.
Augsburg had led 2-0 through goals from Florian Niederlechner and Marco Richter. After Julian Brandt pulled one back for Dortmund, Niederlechner scored his second on 55 minutes before Haaland's introduction. Victory in the first game back after the winter break lifts Dortmund to fourth in the Bundesliga, four points behind leaders RB Leipzig, who face Union Berlin later on Saturday. Not a proper hat-trick?!German football expert Raphael Honigstein, speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live:Dortmund have been playing without that kind of a striker for a couple of years now.

I do not really see Airbus scoring here in this game against 2nd placed Connah's which is really just one point behind the league leaders from TNS at this moment, and they are in good form at this moment as well. This while Airbus even lost 12-0 at home to TNS 3 rounds ago while last away game was at Caernarfon and they ended up losing it as well with 5-0 in the end.
Try one Miguel Perez Cuesta - or Michu, to me and thee. View more on twitterTurns out that Haaland is a big fan of the Spanish former Swansea City midfielder. The then-26-year-old Michu completed a move from Rayo Vallecano to the Welsh side for around £2m in 2012 and became a fan favourite, scoring 22 goals in 43 appearances during that first season and winning the League Cup. It's not exactly scoring in the Champions League to beat Paris St-Germain, which Haaland achieved recently, but Michu obviously made a big impression on the Norwegian when he was younger.
Charlton still have a respectable 23 points to their name, but they’re reaching a crossroads. The Addicks are now seven points shy of the playoffs, but only seven clear of relegation. They could go either way from here, while the fact that they’re down to 17th suggests they are in a tough position. Manager Lee Bowyer needs something from his team to arrest the dip, but their defensive concerns could prevent that from happening.

We will respect the winter break - KloppThe Football Association said every club agreed to this season's FA Cup fixture schedule and knew fourth-round replays might cut into their winter breaks, as is also the case with Tottenham, Southampton and Newcastle. But people at Liverpool who have spoken to Klopp say he regards it as a 'line in the sand' moment with regard to player welfare and believes that for his opposition to the present situation to carry any weight, he must follow through his argument that the winter break was introduced to give players a rest.
I would start saving players for it because that's what City have got to start focusing on. Speaking on the Monday Night Club, Wright said Guardiola, who won two Champions League titles in charge of Barcelona, will be determined to win it again with City after not doing so at previous club Bayern Munich. Guardiola said he thinks he will be regarded as a failure at City if he does not win the Champions League, with the club having failed to progress beyond the quarter-finals so far under the Spaniard.

Carlo Ancelotti's Everton, unbeaten in five league games, host Arsenal on Sunday. With Liverpool's title procession likely to continue when they host third from bottom West Ham United on Monday, the battle for second place goes head to head on Saturday.

Both Manchester clubs, Chelsea and Liverpool dream of repatriating one of the nation’s crown jewels. And when those clubs scramble together, prices soar.

Finally, Juventus, who will likely make major changes in attack, are very interested.
