Belgium coach Roberto Martinez after his team were drawn in Group B with Denmark, Russia and Finland: "In terms of logistics, it's probably the hardest we could've had, playing Russia in St Petersburg in the first game and then Denmark in the second in Copenhagen, and then going back to St Petersburg.
Transfer window updates - Inter join chase for Aubameyang Arteta hopes 'tremendous' Xhaka will stay after form turnaround Arteta learned his trade working under Pep Guardiola at Manchester City and the Spaniard's high-pressing style was evidenced in the way Arsenal played last night. Luiz added: "I believe he [Arteta] can improve every player.
We will be able to make those repayments as hitting these targets, which the players can directly influence, will mean our financial position will be stronger," Arsenal said. The agreement is based on the assumption we will finish the 2019-20 season and receive the full broadcasting revenues. The resulting savings will help cover some of the financial risks we have this season in relation to our matchday and commercial income.
City host Real on either 7 or 8 August, while Chelsea face Bayern Munich away. In the Europa League, Wolves will host Olympiakos and Manchester United will welcome LASK on 5 or 6 August. Both competitions were suspended in March because of the coronavirus pandemic, after the majority of first legs had been played. City lead Real 2-1 after the first leg, Chelsea are 3-0 down to Bayern, Manchester United are 5-0 up on LASK and Wolves are level at 1-1 having scored an away goal in Greece.
The home fans will feel aggrieved with some of the decisions that went against them in this game, although there can be few complaints about the red card for Djnepro. While his challenge was not malicious, his foot did land on Hayden's ankle and the outcome could have been much worse for the Newcastle man.
So, I would not say Saints have dropped their standards, or are back in any kind of trouble. Far from it, because they have still been competitive every time I have seen them. I am going to go with Aston Villa here, though, even if the amount of goals they are conceding is a concern because it is the most in the division and an average of almost two a game.
It was a weird atmosphere and the boys were so focused and created their own atmosphere and I think the camaraderie and the team spirit was there to see," Solskjaer told BT Sport. It's not to recommend (football behind closed doors) but I have to praise the boys because they did fantastic. Olympiakos, who knocked out Arsenal in the previous round, had centre back Ruben Semedo sent off in the 28th minute for a last-man foul but Youssef El Arabi fired them ahead in the 54th with a close-range finish.
Back to the old-school New Middlesbrough boss Neil Warnock left his last job a manager of Cardiff City in NovemberWith stakes high in the Championship, Gibson has turned to a battle-hardened old hand in Warnock to drag Boro to safety during the run-in. While the 71-year-old has enjoyed four top-flight promotion successes, from Notts County in 1991 right the way through to Cardiff in 2018, he also lists second-tier survival bids with Crystal Palace and Rotherham on his CV.
There is likely to be some rotation from head coach, Pablo Machin, who will be looking towards a key clash with Real Betis this coming weekend and will look for this game to serve as nothing more than a confidence booster ahead of that clash.
Pisa and Pordenone will face each other in the upcoming match in the Serie B. Pisa this season have the following results: 4W, 5D and 4L. Meanwhile Pordenone have 6W, 4D and 3L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Historically, Central Coast don’t have a good record in this fixture. They’ve won just six times in the 39 contests between the two and haven’t tasted victory in this fixture since 2013. Their last point against Melbourne Victory came six matches ago and all the signs point towards The Mariners struggling to come away from this contest without anything once more. Their chances aren’t made any better with the news that Ola Toivonen returns from suspension for this game.
Life isn’t looking too peachy at Manchester City either. They may have easily topped their Champions League group, but their Premier League title defence is hanging by the thinnest of threads. A shock 2-1 defeat at home to arch rivals Manchester United last weekend leaves them a massive 14 points adrift of Liverpool, and they’re even six behind Leicester.
Ronaldo is the only other player to score more, with 90 goals in his last 88 Champions League games. The three are in a league of their own. The next top goalscorer is Karim Benzema on 38. This season Lewandowski has scored 10 Champions League goals in five games (he was an unused substitute in the final match against Tottenham), an average of one every 44 minutes. That puts him two above Erling Braut Haaland (more on him soon) with Harry Kane next on six.
The fans were not happy," Ljungberg told reporters. I got asked about it and said, 'At Arsenal, that's not how we behave and not what we do'. I stand by that. Mesut was injured, but I would not have picked him for the squad because I want to make a stance that it's not what I accept from an Arsenal football player.
Oxford built steadily after a horrendous start last season and they've continued to build this term, becoming a serious play-off challenger as a result. Karl Robinson's men will spend Christmas Day in the top six thanks to their win against the league leaders at this venue last weekend.
Arsenal are currently 10th in the Premier League table, seven points behind fourth-placed Chelsea, after five victories in 17 matches this season. Arteta said his priority will be to lift spirits in the dressing room before focusing on improving the results in the second half of the campaign. I don't want people hiding, I want them to take responsibility for the jobs," he added.
The whole side earned the adoration that he enjoyed. Fred and McTominay are not their equal, and Martial is not a ruthless striker to make the most of his creativity. Solskjaer will likely never turn Pogba into a leader, but he could make him the centre of attention, and demonstrate to him that the crowd will make him a hero if is at the heart of a resurgence.
Official picture klaxon! 11. We've had some more Tottenham player reaction to the news this morning. It's worth pointing out that the players reportedly were not informed of the decision to sack Pochettino until the announcement was mad, which is pretty crazy. Here is Kyle Walker-Peters, who appeared to have been frozen out of the squad by the end, on the manager's departure.
There will also be drinks breaks "lasting no longer than one minute" midway through each half, with the time added to the end of each half, and warm-downs can take no longer than 25 minutes. With only about 300 people present at each match, there will be no ball boys and girls, with spare balls positioned around the pitch. VAR will also resume, with extra rooms used in the VAR Hub for social distancing.
Eight minutes later, Virgil Van Dijk passed into an enormous gap between Simpson and Jack Stacey, enabling Mane to run through on goal and steer the ball inside Aaron Ramsdale's left hand post. James Milner made a brilliant goal-saving clearance in the second half to deny Fraser and the relegation-haunted visitors, who may have grabbed a late equaliser had Wilson not got his feet muddled up with the goal agape after Nathan Ake's square-pass left him with an open goal.
Having taken seven points from the last nine available, Southampton's results have finally started to reflect their improving performances in recent week, and the Saints new found momentum makes them a tricky assignment for Spurs this week.
Championship leaders Leeds United have had striker Eddie Nketiah's loan spell from Arsenal cut short. Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa started Nketiah in Wednesday's top-of-the-table draw at West Brom, substituting the 20-year-old at half-time. After the match the Argentine confirmed Nketiah's season-long stay was being ended four months early. The club and him informed us that he is not going to continue with us," said Bielsa.
Going to this game, Sheffield have managed 48 points and are placed 12th while Derby are 15th with 45 points. Steven Fletcher scored the lone goal in the fifth minute of added time against Charlton Athletic to drive Sheffield back to winning ways after having gone winless in six matches. It also marked the second time in nine matches that Sheffield registered a clean sheet and they will be hoping to make it easier as they host Derby.
The only other potential outgoings would be James Chester and Henri Lansbury, who surely both want to start games. However, having them around with a relegation battle ahead would not be a bad thing. Brighton & Hove AlbionScott McCarthy - WeAreBrighton. We desperately need a striker. In public, Graham Potter constantly praises Glenn Murray - but the fact the striker hasn't started a game since September tells you everything you need to know.
Away team is one of the tougher rival in the league, and their recent victories against Rukh and BATE are showing the quality of the squad. Both of those matches were under 2.5 goals, and this is one of the lower average for this season. Torpedo is also very good in the league, and they have beat some of the top rivals in the competition.

West Ham need to boost their confidence if they are to escape the bottom three. They led at Liverpool but again their defensive skills let them down. Their current form is poor and home results not coming either. Southampton struggled earlier in the season and looked to be set for a relegation battle. That's not the case now and a good run-in could see them finish in the top six. They have the ability to win this game and plunge West Ham into further despair.
Huesca have been the best home team so far in the league with a 12-2-2 record and with 28 goals they have also been the most productive home team in the league. However, they also kept a clean sheet only once in the last 7 at home.
Substitute Bafetimbi Gomis responded for Al Hilal, before going agonisingly close to heading an injury-time winner. The match went straight to penalties, where Monterrey prevailed after goalkeeper Luis Cardenas denied Eduardo and Mohamed Kanno before converting the winning penalty himself. Monterrey, denied a place in the final by Premier League leaders Liverpool, had goalkeeper Cardenas to thank as he prevented Omar Khribin extending Al Hilal's advantage at the end of a tight first half.
Bolton's fortunes have improved of late, even away from home, where they recently beat a reasonably useful Bristol Rovers side by two goals to nil. On that occasion, the Trotters weren't imperious in the final third, but by restricting their opponents to few opportunities, they were still the more creative side.
Atletico coach Diego Simeone celebrated Llorente's second goal and Morata's match winner by racing down the touchline towards his side's visiting supporters and he called the win one of the club's most significant ever. This was a game to go down in history, against an extraordinary rival, one of the best we have faced in my eight years here, with a huge intensity and in a spectacular stadium," Simeone said.

PSG were without Neymar, who skipped the game because of a rib injury, but they were inspired up front even if Mauro Icardi had another night to forget. The Argentine was replaced in the second half by PSG's most prolific scorer Cavani, who netted his 199th goal for the capital side just when they appeared vulnerable.
Boos greeted Michael Oliver's half-time whistle, but there was little change to the pattern of play until the introductions of Boufal and Shane Long 13 minutes into the second half. Republic of Ireland forward Long twice struck the woodwork, seeing his header tipped on to the crossbar by Ben Foster before scuffing another shot against the post from close range. Ings eventually restored parity after fine work by Boufal on the right as he worked his way into the box with some excellent footwork, before Ward-Prowse curled a magnificent free-kick beyond Foster as Southampton won after trailing at half-time for only the second time in 44 league matches.
Paper Round’s view: Barely a week (day?) goes by without Koulibaly’s name featuring in gossip columns across Europe. He’s now in his sixth season at Napoli without being snapped up by a larger European club. A long time. Are Napoli pricing suitors out? Or do these persistent rumours have little substance? A combination of the two, you would think.
Another match from Faroe Islands, elite league for tonight - my third match for today from this league, where I will not complicate anything and I will just bet on goals, what is for me very very real. So, Skala is interesting team who is in last official match against this rival played 2-0 and won, but if we see their form this time, than it is pretty clear that this time will be more efficient. In last two rounds, this team is played with even 15 goals, believe it or not, 6-2 and 5-2. Yes, this match is ideal for over 3.

Uganda Premier league match between Kampala City and Mbarara City, 16. Round,. Kampala is one of the best teams in Uganda and they are currently at second place and have 32 points 4 less than first placed Vipers, Kampala is a big favorite here of course but for me is better option to bet on goals, the main reason is because these two teams playing the most efficient football in the league, Kampala has the best attack in the league and 10 of their 15 matches finished with over 2.5 goals, on the other side 9 of 15 matches which played Mbarara finished with over 2.5 goals and for me this bet looks like pretty real option for high stake. Good luck!

He produced a goal and an incredible assist in their win over Slavia in midweek, while his league form has been incredible in recent weeks. the Belgian has scored seven times in his last six in Serie A, so we’re backing him to grab a goal at home to one of the division’s weakest sides.

The Reds are only 19 points away from their record of 98 in 1978-79 (adjusted to three points for a win) - but that was in a 42-game season. The Reds' best points-per-game return was last season as they picked up 97 at a rate of 2. They can still wrap up the earliest Premier League title win ever - which is currently held by Manchester United who won the 2000-01 title on 14 April. Liverpool have won their past 21 home Premier League games, equalling the English top-flight record for consecutive home wins, set by the Reds themselves between January and December 1972 under Bill Shankly.
