Ings is furious after being denied a penalty. GOAL! Liverpool 2-0 Southampton (Henderson). Liverpool have a second, and surely the win, now! Firmino is again the provider, picking up a long ball and cutting back to Henderson, who makes no mistake to get another goal! 72’ - GOAL! Liverpool 3-0 Southampton (Salah).
Leicester City are again the surprise team of the season, though Sheffield United aren't too far behind in that category. They are second in the table and with an upcoming home game against Liverpool, could close that gap soon. They need to keep winning in the meantime and this again looks a good opportunity for three points. Leicester won in midweek, again scoring twice in a game. Villa lost at Chelsea and have struggled against the top teams this season. Go for an away win here.
The result supports that argument, yet their performance was nigh-on perfect for 99 per cent of the game. They lost concentration only once and were punished by Antoine Griezmann. Such are the margins in elite sport: had Griezmann missed, we would be hailing a tactical masterclass from Gennaro Gattuso.
What an incredible performance for a young player," Lampard told the BBC. He was a calm head in that first five or 10 minutes. He's a throwback of a midfielder. Can you put your foot in? Yes. Can you make angles to play the passes? Yes. He's only slight in stature but he's huge in personality. He deserves people to talk about him after a performance like that.
All things considered, backing both nets to be hit simply has to be the way to play here and is something we're happy to do with maximum confidence. The last 3 matches between the two have seen goals at both ends and featured a big average of 4.66 goals per game and although we don't think this meeting will be quite as high scoring, we do think both will notch in a 1-1 draw; leaving it all to play for in the second leg.
Back-to-back defeats by Manchester City and West Ham United had followed six straight league wins, but the return of striker Tammy Abraham proved crucial against Villa. He headed the opening goal for his 11th of the season and set up the winner for Mason Mount with a neat chest-off three minutes after the break.
NEC Nijmegen and Almere City will face each other in the upcoming match in the Eerste Divisie in Holland. NEC Nijmegen this season have the following results: 7W, 6D and 5L. Meanwhile Almere City have 7W, 4D and 7L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.

Apparently, aged 15, he once asked a police officer with him to use a laser pen and 'red dot' one of the opposition players. I kept saying to him, 'see, he's following you'," William laughed: "It put him off for about 10 minutes!"He wants Grealish in the England squadWhen Crouch and the team ask William if - in his role as president of the FA, he might get rid of Gareth Southgate were England to have a bad run of games - he concedes that "that might be a bit difficult!".
Sampdoria are coming into this clash as the favourites, with those numbers likely factoring into that decision. After all, the hosts have been improving here of late. Sampdoria are unbeaten in their last four league matches at the Ferraris (W1 D3) and could avoid the defeat in five such games in a row for the first time since February 2018. Their only defeats at home this term have come against two of the current top three. However, will Parma really disappoint on the road?
The nerves did not show, though, as he made a fantastic double stop to deny Mateo Kovacic and Oliver Giroud. He was roundly cheered by the West Ham fans, who had booed Roberto during the 3-2 defeat by Tottenham last Saturday. And his Hammers team-mates ran to congratulate him afterwards for a Premier League debut to remember. Christian Pulisic missed two great chances for ChelseaChelsea pay for profligacyAlthough West Ham held firm, Chelsea paid for failing to take their chances with Pulisic perhaps the most guilty after lifting an effort over early on and slicing a chance wide after being put through by substitute N'Golo Kante.
This should be very interesting match between this two sides. I don't know why but all I can see here is one very boring match where eventually only one accident goal can decide the winner. Both teams are going to fight for that play off spot. Girona so far are at the 5th position with 49 pts while Elche is at the 7th place with only 2 points less than Girona. However both teams are having some problems lately at the back and I think that they will focus more on not conceding any goal rather they scoring it. I give a little advantage to Girona because of the quality but Elche are very solid home team this season.
Having been brought to the club with the task of restoring the sense of excitement Barca used to be renowned for, Setien's side will be expected to entertain fans against Granada. But he said no-one will be compelling the team to turn on the style more than him. The club are not demanding, I am. I've never accepted low standards, no-one at the club will have to say anything to me because I'll come to work every day eager to transmit to my footballers that we have to win," he said.
Subs: Gimenez 7, Morata 7, Llorente 8, Vrsaljko 6. KEY MOMENTS 31’ - CHANCE! Salah does well to muscle his man off the ball, feeds the ball across for Mane, who has a good view of the ball all the way across, but fires straight at Oblak. GOOOOOOAAAALLLLL!!! Liverpool 1-0 Atletico. Wijnaldum with the header to send Anfield into delirium.

Sunday's win was achieved without Ryan Christie, Jonny Hayes, Hatem Abd Elhamed or Mohamed Elyounoussi with Olivier Ntcham, Boli Bolingoli, Jeremie Frimpong and Odsonne Edouard stepping into the side to overcome Hibs. With games coming thick and fast and injuries piling up on the cold, frozen surfaces around Scotland, Lennon's side have so far managed to safely navigate their way through a crowded fixture list without any genuine upsets.
<strong>Arsenal vs Southampton prediction</strong> comes before the 13th round of the English Premier League clash at Emirates Stadium in London. The hosts are listed as the favourites for this affair, but that’s not the reason for the visitors to surrender before the match. Therefore, you should read my match preview to find out the best betting tips and correct score predictions for this game.
The two changes did affect us. Dwight [Gayle] started brightly and unfortunately he got injured as well. I don't think there's a club out there which has 12 or 13 players missing. Fair play to the players, they rolled their sleeves up and deserved a point. On Dubravka: "He's been a big part for us. The save he made with his feet was as good as you're going to see.
On Wednesday, Premier League clubs unanimously voted to resume contact training but Watford are not expected to resume group training until next week. Deeney has spoken with England's deputy chief medical officer, Professor Jonathan Van-Tam, and is expected to return to club training next week. He's been doing very, very good research and there is a lot of goodwill on his part to tell me, ultimately, that I'm going to be looked after as best as they can and, ultimately, there is going to be some form of risk for all of us going back to work," Deeney said.
The hosts are fighting for a top 6 finish at the end of the normal season and are quite close to those places at this moment plus they face here the weakest opponent in the league they could possibly face as the guests are bottom of the league team with a bit more than 10 points won so far, just 2 wins all season long in the league and even lost at home 1-0 to same Kilmarnock side while their last two away games they lost 2-0 and 4-0 in the end and opponents were neither Celtic or Rangers but weak St. Mirren and Motherwell.
But the past two games have seen the Catalans quicken their play in the final third and the goals have followed, scoring seven against Leganes and Levante. This was much more like it. MAN OF THE MATCH - Ansu Fati (Barcelona) The teenager had looked more like a teenager in recent weeks, perhaps bucking under the pressure being piled on his young shoulders.
Based on recent meetings (Leganes have won the last four), the visitors' upward curve and Valladolid's misfiring attack, we're tentatively chancing a 0-1 correct score in favour of Los Pepineros, and we're also recommending a small wager on under 1.5 goals at a shade of odds-against.
Yet Minister for Sport Vincenzo Spadafora asked the national soccer association (FIGC) to stop top division Serie A matches after the government ordered a lockdown of large parts of the north of the country, backing a plea for suspension made by the head of the players’ union Damiano Tommasi on Saturday.
Emmen have drawn 25% of their home games and Sparta have drawn 38% of their away games, adding further weight to our prediction for a stalemate on Sunday. The hosts have only kept clean sheets in 25% of their home games and the visitors have failed to score in 38% of their away games, which points towards the possibility of a goalless draw between the pair this weekend.
It reminded me of her a lot," he describes. So, he brought back a model plane and a gushy letter that he'd written and asked Ana to meet him, rather surprisingly, at a petrol station near where she lived in Mataro. When I got the gift and read the letter, I can say I fell in love at that moment," says Ana. Iniesta says "I fell in love with her at first sight and she fell in love gradually". Iniesta Jr and Villa Jr could be the Spanish duo of the futureSpanish legend David Villa won two La Liga trophies and the Champions League in his time alongside Iniesta at Barcelona, as well as winning the European Championship for Spain with him in 2008 and the World Cup in 2010.

Forward Nikita Parris has apologised to former international team-mate Eniola Aluko for her show of support for then-England boss Mark Sampson in 2017. Parris, 26, ran to celebrate with Sampson, who was accused of racially discriminating against Aluko and Drew Spence, after a goal against Russia. An enquiry later ruled that Sampson had made unacceptable remarks to Aluko and Spence. Eni, I am sorry that my thoughtless actions caused you hurt," wrote Parris.
Asked in his television interview with BT Sport about transfers, Solskjaer said: "I understand you were talking about that and that is always going to be the talk at the moment because we’ve started a clear-out and get-players-in job. Burnley enjoyed what was almost a routine victory and yet it was the Lancashire club's first at Old Trafford since 1962.

Remember: Messi has already won, apparently. Big Virg? Of course, it's not just Messi in the hunt for the Ballon d'Or. Liverpool supremo Virgil van Dijk is also hoping to scoop football's most coveted individual prize - and his team-mate James Milner is backing him. Happy Ballon d'or Day! What a time to be alive.
Hi! Zenit and Lyon are here before the 5th round of the Champions League group stage match up. Both of the teams have everything to play for, as none of them has been saved their ticket for the next round yet. It will be an open fixture as well, as every of them wants a victory. Zenit is doing great this season in their league, and after the last round of the Russian Premier League, they are at the top of the table. However, in the Champions League they aren’t showing so well. Pick on both teams scoring and draw!! Nice game, friends ;)
The police will be reviewing our evidence alongside us. Please be assured we shall be exhaustively investigating this matter. At this time however we should point out that our findings are inconclusive and would ask that comment is reserved until the facts are established.

Lionel Messi looks set to win his seventh La Liga golden boot after scoring twice in Barcelona's win over Alaves on the final day. The Barca captain is on 25 goals, four clear of Karim Benzena, whose Real Madrid face Leganes at 20:00 BST. The game was not of importance as Real clinched the La Liga title on Thursday. Messi rounded the keeper to make it 2-0 and swept in a fifth - with teenager Ansu Fati, Luis Suarez and Nelson Semedo scoring the other goals.
There will be an upset somewhere on FA Cup third round weekend - but who will be the victims?BBC Sport's football expert Mark Lawrenson has taken a look at all 32 of this weekend's ties and given his verdict on who might spring a surprise.

Italy has reported more than 400 cases, centred on the industrial heartlands of Lombardy and Veneto, while Italians or people who recently visited Italy have tested positive in Algeria, Austria, Croatia, Greece, Romania, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland. Juventus, chasing a ninth successive title, lead the table on 60 points, one ahead of Lazio, and Inter in third are on 54 with a game in hand.
It goes to this dubious goals committee but they feel like faceless men. Who are they? No-one knows. It is like football's biggest mystery. I was at a game recently and I made my feelings known about this panel and this guy came up to me and said 'I was on the panel'. I can't remember his name. We will get them on the podcast, do the robot voice on them, and ask them to tell us goals they have chalked off and why.
Wealdstone hungry to get a direct promotion after 2 lost game in their last 5 league game, things are not going their way as planned after losing that 6 points. But I believe that they will come back to their winning ways with this game against 17th placed Billericay Town whom has lost 4 games in their last 5 league games.
Having not let in a single goal in any of their three home matches in the group stage, it would be a surprise to see Sevilla concede on Thursday. Nerves on the night could be a factor and could lead to sloppiness at the back. However, we think that Sevilla will be able to navigate their way through the fixture comfortably. Back the home side to win without conceding.
Within two minutes, Raheem Sterling raced down the other end and slotted into the bottom corner with an exquisite curling finish for his 22nd goal of the season. The errors by Schar and Gayle undid Newcastle's hard work, but City kept their composure to extend their winning FA Cup run to 10 games. Having already won the League Cup and with a lead over Real Madrid in the last 16 of the Champions League, it could still be a memorable season for Pep Guardiola's side.
Moshiri has always wanted a 'Hollywood' manager with the reputation and successes of Jose Mourinho, Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola. Now Everton have one. And it can only be cause for optimism. Ancelotti won the Champions League twice with AC MilanThe key question mark - and there is one - is that Ancelotti's successes have been built on brilliantly calm man-management and tactical wisdom, which have made him the ideal facilitator of great players such as Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid.
Arsenal vs Sheffield United predictions for Saturday’s Premier League clash at the Emirates Stadium. Arsenal can close to within a point of Sheffield United with a win against the Blades this weekend. Read on for all our free Premier League predictions and betting tips.
Hannover 96 will host team St.Pauli. Both teams are in the middle zone. And both clubs are without great motivation to win this match. My bet is under 3 goals in this game. Last three h2h games were ended with one or two goals . St. Pauli finished last two their away games with 2 goals. Hannover has finished last 2 home games with 3 goals. It is North derby between our teams . So, I predict slow game with minimal number of goals. Both teams are played their last league games 3 days ago. All statistics to try this way in this game !
This game is Wolves' 38th of the season after they started their campaign in the Europa League qualifiers in July and boss Nuno Espirito Santo has been pleased with how his squad have handled the extra workload. It's about the way they prepare themselves on a daily basis with the way they recover and compete, credit to all the players," he said. It's the most important game, the next one is always the most important.

Obviously, Benfica have the much stronger of the two squads but also have a Champions League tie following this match and will be expected to heavily rotate their squad for the trip to Vizela. Vizela have scored in five of their last six matches but have only managed to keep one clean sheet during that period, while both teams have scored in three of Benfica’s last six games in all competitions.
