EINTRACHT FRANKFURT BRING IT ON THEMSELVES, SAYS BOBIC Eintracht Frankfurt sporting director Fred Bobic gave a withering assessment of his team's performance after they lost 2-1 to bottom club Paderborn to extend their winless run in the Bundesliga to seven matches, including six defeats. We brought it on ourselves and didn't take the fight to them from the start," he said.
Los Rojillos went behind 20 minutes in to a Marc Roja penalty, but overran Periquitos in the second half as Ruben Garcia, Avila and Moncayola all struck, before Roberto Torres put the gloss on the three points via the penalty spot in injury time.
At the back, Thursday's visitors have most certainly come up short, conceding eight goals and keeping zero clean sheets, but what they have done is avoid getting constantly battered, losing by more than a single goal in just one of their five UEL group games. What they've also done is make a habit of getting the odd goal, scoring in four out of five, notching in both of their travelling games. They'll struggle to get the better of Gent in Belgium, but they can at least make their presence felt.
Table toppers Chelsea thrashed Birmingham 6-0 while Manchester City won 5-0 at Bristol City and Manchester United beat Brighton 4-0. Everton, meanwhile, beat Tottenham 3-1 while last season's champions Arsenal saw off Liverpool 1-0. There were a number of standout performances this matchday and here are three of the best.
Lawro's prediction: 2-1Al's prediction: Bournemouth will have have had a chance to reset and work out exactly what was going wrong for them. It could be a tight game. SUNDAY Newcastle v Sheff Utd (14:00 BST)Newcastle's takeover saga rumbles on and on and on. I feel a bit sorry for their manager Steve Bruce, who has done a really good job - every time he loses he is out of a job, apparently, and it is the same with stories about him being replaced by whoever buys the club.
The police have notified us today that, having reviewed and investigated, they have closed the crime report as they can find no evidence to support the allegation of racial abuse. We fully support Antonio Rudiger with the action that he took – however there is no evidence to corroborate or contradict the allegation and as such neither ourselves nor the police are in a position to take any further action.
This is a crisis and if anybody takes benefit, for me it would be a big surprise. I don't think the football industry will do this. It looks complex but it's one player, two teams and changing the date. I trust in the goodwill of people and relationships that we can make (it happen). At Leeds United this year, we always had young players around the team. The fans are proud of the club's history with academy players.

This fixture features No. 10 vs No. 9 in the league, Partick Thistle vs Alloa Athletic. The hosts coming from a 2 - 1 home win over Greenock Morton (no. 8 in the league) and that is also their last home game. The visitors coming from a 2 - 1 home win to Dunfermline Athletic (No. 6 in the league) and their last away game a 2 - 1 loss to Arbroath. The hosts should win this one as they played a higher table team than the visitors scoring multiple goals and conceding one goal to win the match facing a team coming from playing a team above themselves and the hosts and scoring multiple goals and conceding one goal to win the match then losing their last away game to a team above themselves, scoring and conceding so an over 2.5 is best to tip here.
Alanyaspor will host Trabzonspor for this fixture of the league. I expect, this will be tense match. Also, I expect this will be a very interesting match. No doubt, the visitors will try to get the victory on the opposite stadium. Trabzonspor have a chance to reach for the 1st place. I think, the visitors will have invest great effort in this game. Alanyaspor have highly variable results. However, Alanyaspor is better team at home. In any case, the hosts will try to capitalize advantage on their pitch. So, I think, the visitors are small favorites in this game. However, this will not be an easy task on the road. My pick - Alanyaspor to win.

The hosts have only managed to win two of their seven home games in the league so far this season while the visitors have only won once on the road but have secured two draws. Belenenses average 1.00 points per home game and Vitoria Setubal average 0.71 points per away game, which is one of the main reasons we have backed the pair to draw on Saturday. The hosts score an average of 0.86 goals per home game while the visitors score an average of 0.57 goals per away game, so you can see why we have backed the pair to play out a goalless draw this weekend.
Second-choice Sergio Rico's clearance from Marco Verratti's backpass bounced on to Pablo's knee and into the goal. PSG, however, accelerated after the break and Marquinhos put the French champions ahead after 63 minutes, poking home the ball after Costil had parried a Cavani header into his path. Six minutes later, Mbappe doubled the advantage from close range after being set up by Cavani.
The home team have seen 4 of their past 5 matches having just the one goal scored. They have not been a big scoring team and have also not been scored against badly in their games recently as well. This game could be another low scoring game as they will play at home and defend well. The away team are known at times to play a very defensive style of football as well they look to keep their games low with scores at time. They will look to defend this out to the end and score late as well tonight
Arsenal's home defeat by Eintracht Frankfurt showed manager Unai Emery "may have taken the team as far as he can", said ex-Gunner Martin Keown. Arsenal took the lead through Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang but Daichi Kamada's double secured a 2-1 victory for Frankfurt, although the Gunners remain top of Europa League Group F. Keown said his old club's second-half performance was a "shambles". He seems to have lost the players and the desire has ebbed away," he added.
Football was the sport my brother loved and I fell in love with it trough that" - Bronze pictured with her brother JorgeEighteen years old: 'I was working in Domino's'At the age of 17, Bronze moved to the United States to join the University of North Carolina on a scholarship, but moved back to England a year later to study at Leeds Beckett and play for Everton, before joining Liverpool. It proved to be a frustrating time in her career, having to have three knee operations in the space of two years.
However, the initial bet didn't state that the Range Rover had to be new. Fabregas presented Caballero with a battered old Range Rover that he'd found in a scrap yard for only £950 - complete with cracked windscreen. A video shared by Fabregas shows the moment Caballero is presented the car in front of his Chelsea team-mates including Pedro and Marcos Alonso. The lesson of the story is: Don't bet at all at any cost," Fabregas concluded.

Mallorca have enjoyed a fair amount of success at home this term, but Real Sociedad (0-1), Atletico Madrid (0-2) and Real Betis (1-2) have all triumphed at Son Moix this season and we think Sevilla are more than good enough to do the same after winning five and drawing two of their nine away matches so far.
Santa Clara’s away games produced an average of 1.71 total goals, adding further weight to our prediction of under 2.5 goals being scored in Saturday’s clash. In fact, over 2.5 goals have only been scored in 25% of Guimaraes’ home games and in 14% of Santa Clara’s away games, which suggests that under 2.5 goals are more likely to be scored this weekend.
Home team is at the bottom of the table, and they did not show any sign that can play better, than in the previous seasons, at the better level. They will fight relegation again, and should not be considered as even light in advantage, when face rivals like this.

But if the transfers go through, Wilder believes his squad will be "as strong as it has been for a long time in this club's history". Wilder also said striker Billy Sharp would not be leaving the club, but was surprised that he had no offers for forward Leon Clarke. We are confident we can get three deals over the line and we are working away on that. It is tough of course, and we wouldn't expect it to be any different.

They are the best side in this country, in Europe and possibly the world, with four of the top seven players in the voting for Monday's Ballon d'Or currently plying their trade at Anfield - a testimony to the recruitment and training work at Anfield that has been sorely absent at Goodison. When majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri arrived at Everton in 2016, he had publicly stated ambitions of putting the club at the heart of what he called 'the Hollywood of football' in the north-west," says BBC Sport chief football writer Phil McNulty.
Ex-City defender Joleon Lescott on the 2012 title-winning team compared to the current side: "The City team now is great of course but I'd argue our team was as good. We didn't play the same way but I don't think we were ever asked to play the same way. We were just asked to play the way we played under Roberto Mancini, and we did that - extremely well. And in terms of players, we had some ridiculous talent, and also some of the most consistent players there have been - James Milner and Gareth Barry are two of the most consistent players in the history of the Premier League.

Going to this game, Ulsan seems the stronger of the two; they have a stronger squad and have strengthened even more. They will be more confident than a much changed Sangju side who play knowing too well they will still be relegated. Sangju may have a few hungry players, but they will definitely take time to gel and their inexperience will be no match for Ulsan. We predict a 2-0 win for Ulsan.
Since Rodgers replaced Claude Puel in February, no other team outside of Liverpool and City have amassed as many points. FULL STORY 13:30 - Dyche hopeful on Taylor Burnley's injury problems mounted on Monday as defender Charlie Taylor could be ruled out of the Premier League match against champions Manchester City on Tuesday with a hamstring strain, although manager Sean Dyche is hopeful it is not too serious.
Poor defending has led to the side that currently sits in 8th place drawing more games than they’ve won. They’ve scored a respectable 13 goals in front of a home crowd but have shipped a rather concerning ten and have kept just one clean sheet. The fact that only four teams in the league have shipped more home goals is worrying.
I think that goes to the 1970s because I can always picture Andy Gray in their kit. Bournemouth v ArsenalBournemouth did not offer much going forward against Burnley on Saturday, and did not even manage one shot on target. They looked like they were at least going to get a clean sheet but the Clarets nicked it right at the end, and the Cherries have now lost six of their past seven games. Although we have seen Eddie Howe's side recover from bad runs like this one in the past, they have got a lot of injuries to contend with at the moment and the busy festive period is going to be especially tough on them.
Odds are actually bigger for the both teams scoring than the over 2.5 goals scoring and it really should not be like this as Espanyol played really well just some days ago in their first game after the restart and won all 3 points at home against a decent Alaves side with 2-0 in the end, and should come looking for a point although I am sure they want to win this game in order to improve their chances of avoiding relegation and they really have a too good squad of players to get relegated if you asked me.

Other sporting events were still taking place, including horse racing's Cheltenham Festival in the second week of March, which was attended by 251,684 people. The UK government has defended its decision to allow such events to go ahead before restrictions on mass gatherings were enforced 10 days after Liverpool's fixture. While there is no confirmed link between the Liverpool match and any coronavirus cases, on 20 April the government's deputy chief scientific adviser, Angela McLean, said it warranted further investigation, describing it as an "interesting hypothesis".
She has an unerring eye for goal, brilliant vision and creativity, and the same single-mindedness that makes her the best striker in the world means she won't be courting any off-the-field spotlight, nor schmoozing or stepping on to a red carpet for the paparazzi. All she cares about is success for her team.
Sheffield loves scalping favorites. Already three times during the course of this season, a representative of the Big Six was beaten. However, in recent matches the team was caught by a draw virus. Four of the last five matches ended in a draw.
HAALAND SCORES BRACE AS DORTUND BEAT PSG He then thundered in an unstoppable shot for his second goal in the 77th, two minutes after PSG's Brazilian forward Neymar had levelled for the French champions. He is only the second teenager to net 10 Champions League goals, after Kylian Mbappe, and is the first teenager to score 10 in a single campaign in the competition.
