Sheffield Wednesday have had a good run so far in the cup with wins at Premier League team Brighton and Championship team QPR. But at the moment they are looking very poor with a 1-3-4 record in the last 8 games and losing 5 of the last 8 games at home.
The start of the lucrative Indian Premier League Twenty20 cricket competition (IPL) has also been postponed until April 15 as a "precautionary measure", the Indian cricket board (BCCI) said. Some major sports events are going ahead though. In Britain the week-long Cheltenham horse racing festival, attracting thousands of fans each day, was gearing up for its blue-riband Gold Cup later on Friday.
It’s a tough draw, but a good draw. We knew that when we get through the group stages, you’re generally in with some big teams and we have certainly drawn one. We have history with them, of course, but these will be games in themselves that will be very testing. We will be ready for the challenge.

Whatever comes we have to be ready for it,” the German international told BBC Radio 5 Live's Friday Football Social. It’s an extraordinary situation right now and extraordinary situations need extraordinary solutions. We see ourselves as top players and a top club and this is a chance for us to show that and deal with the situation as well as possible. It’s about when everything starts again but it doesn’t start when we are back in training (at the club), it has already started, that is how we should see it, so that we can play in all these things and be ready for every competition.
Earlier, England's most-capped international Fara Williams had stunned the Blues by drilling in the opener for the visitors, moments before Reading keeper Grace Moloney was sent off for a late challenge on Kerr right on the edge of the box. That incident changed the game and Chelsea could have scored more but saw a lively Kerr miss two excellent chances, while Reading's substitute keeper Rachael Laws was in fine form to keep the scoreline at 3-1.
On Friday morning came the official confirmation that we had all been expecting, and in many cases demanding - the Premier League, EFL, WSL had all been suspended until April 4. Premier League, EFL and WSL suspended over coronavirus pandemic What does the Premier League suspension mean for the season? 'Land on reality' - Thiago calls for Bundesliga season to be postponed On the same day, UEFA decided to postpone next week’s Champions League and Europa League matches.
Lecce have a tough run of matches after the restart. After the heavy away loss to AC Milan, they have another tough game away to Juventus. They have a poor away run but an even poorer defensive record. Lecce have conceded at least twice in five straight away Serie A matches and face a Juventus side that has not been conceding a lot. Juventus have an added edge in their scoring; they have a great run at home and have scored two or more in the last seven home games. Seeing the high scoring nature of games involving the two sides, we are backing this one to end 3-0 in favor of Juventus.

Last 2 matches between these 2 clubs actually ended 1 x 0 and 0 x 0 and it's quite incredible. It's easy to look at the table this year and wonder how. Going against the tide is not a bad idea this time, this year Slustsk and BDU matches have been a goal festival, BDU last year conceded 38 goals away and Slutsk 26 in 15 matches. This year the history is repeating itself, I'm pretty sure this match will end 1 x 2 or 2 x 2. Keeping it safe I will go for both to score on this one.
Abbott's plan for MLS was approved by FIFA as a legacy of the 1994 World Cup in the United States. He also played a key role creating the league's structure and negotiating with the initial investor-operator group. Before MLS launched in 1996, there was a tireless effort to recruit not only an ownership group committed to investing in the league, but also broadcast and commercial partners as well as players who would give the league a shot.
Eindhoven FC and Jong PSV will face each other in the upcoming match in the Eerste Divisie. Eindhoven FC this season have the following results: 7W, 5D and 13L. Meanwhile Jong PSV have 5W, 5D and 15L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Amiens are having a poor campaign and it's fair to say that they look in trouble. Wednesday's visitors are currently inside the drop-zone and nothing in their recent form suggests that they're on the up.
From one of the most debt-ridden teams in the country, Flamengo became one of the richest. But still the trophies did not come. Well, not until the appointment of the messianic figure of Jorge Jesus in June. The former Benfica manager became a rare case of European 'mister' - the term Spanish and Portuguese players use to describe their boss - to take a job in South America. And he hit the ground running.
He won't, though, be tapping into his dad's vast football expertise for some words of inspiration. You've heard my dad do interviews… he's not the most talkative person," says Paul. He's been over to Miami a couple of times. He likes the golf and lying on the beach - you can just see him getting redder and redder. Media playback is not supported on this device Sir Kenny Dalglish: Scotland great says knighthood is 'a wee bit embarrassing' 'I'm proud of dad, but stand on my own two feet'Paul's playful tone turns serious when the conversation moves on to comparisons with his father, who is Scotland's most capped player and enjoyed a trophy-laden career with Celtic and Liverpool, where he won three European Cups.
Martin Keown: Virgin van Dijk (4)I 100% endorse that Henderson is the Footballer of the Year, because that is a slightly different award - the football writers are encouraged to take into account things that happen away from the field. But the player of the year for me is Van Dijk, for everything he has done and brings to that Liverpool team. His pace, his stature, and how commanding he is in the air.
Brest are the reigning Belarus Premier League champions and currently 10th in the table with a win, draw and defeat from their three games so far. It's been a struggle at times to reach this semi-final. In the last sixteen, they were 1-0 down with half an hour remaining but eventually beat FC Minsk 3-1.
I still vividly remember sitting on the team bus after the game. Everybody was deflated, they knew it was an opportunity missed to really enjoy the next week," says Gould. To win it and then go back to Parkhead with people relaxed would have been a far better feeling. How do you recover from such a demoralising blow, while trying to prepare for a seismic match the following Saturday?"We probably needed a blowout," adds Gould.
Fortuna Dusseldorf games have been entertaining to watch this season. They will have gone into the majority of their Bundesliga games as the underdog this season. However, they have not been shy of any opponents this season. This has lead to plenty of entertaining, back and forth fixtures.
Olbia versus Monza is another match for the Lega Pro in Italy and this time the away team better and favorite are going to win this match easily and for me will win by 2 or more goals and so my bet is the AH -1.25 FT on them. They have 39 points after 16 matches and are 1st in the league. They did well lately with 3 wins in the last 4 matches played and 0 defeats in the last 5. Hosts have only 11 points and are in bottom zone and they did 3 defeats in last 3 matches.

Of course in this match it is clear which team is enormous favorite for the win and the only question is how many goals ajax Will score and I think the answer on that is at least 4 because Sparta is very good opponent for them and in head to head matches they scored 4 or more goals a lot of times in last couple of years and 4 goals could be enough for them to win with 4 goals difference but I even expect from ajax to score 5 goals and to secure this handicap which I surely recommend

With only one side coming into this game with any kind of positive feeling around them, backing Flamengo on the Draw No Bet line looks like an excellent way to play as far as the betting is concerned.. Palmeiras have looked on the beach in recent weeks and with Flamengo unbeaten in a huge 26 games, winning 21 times in the process, we fancy them to run out comfortable 2-0 winners.
In terms of our correct score tip, we think that there should be joy for both of these sides before they have to settle for a point. Both teams have scored in 80% of Cheltenham’s home matches this term and while they have scored an average of 2.2 goals per game, they have conceded an average of 1.2 goals per game. Given that Plymouth have scored an average of 0.9 goals per game and have conceded 1.3 goals per game on the road, a 1-1 stalemate looks to be the way to go.

That may force them to make him stand down in order to make sure they don’t start next season without the player who is still probably the best in the world. For now though, it seems the situation will only become more complicated. Read the full story Leipzig concerned over Angelino fee RB Leipzig boss Julian Nagelsmann is concerned over the potential fee that the German club might have to pay for on-loan defender Angelino.
Belenenses U23 in their last 5 games has 3 wins in a row on the road and two losses in a row at home at this moment, I mean they even lost recently with no less than 5-2 at home to Setubal U23 and also a 2-1 loss at home to modest Cova de Piedade U23 as well, this while Aves is mostly a home type of team reason why they are fighting for the top 6 places in the league at this moment as their away record is not that great just 2-4-5 but with 14 goals scored and 20 goals conceded at the same time.
If you had given me three points against Chelsea and a point against Newcastle, I would have said 'thank you very much'. Another draw at St James' Park - the statsNewcastle have had more home draws than any other team in the Premier League this season (8), with this being their most in a single campaign since 2010-11 (also eight). Despite losing their lead on two occasions, West Ham have gone consecutive games without defeat in the Premier League for the first time since September 2019.
Germany's Bundesliga and second division are set to resume in April but the organising body's (DFL) executive committee has recommended the season be suspended until at least April 30, which will further impact revenues of clubs across the country.

Women's sport has taken a "backseat" to men's sport because of the coronavirus pandemic, says former England and Arsenal defender Alex Scott. The Premier League season resumes on Wednesday and, in cricket, England's men will host West Indies in a three-Test series beginning on 8 July. The Women's Super League was ended early on 25 May and England's women cricketers are currently not set to play until 1 September at earliest.
Under 2.5 goals have been produced in four of the last six meetings between these two clubs as well as in three of Oldham’s and four of Leyton Orient’s last six matches, so you can see why we’re expecting a low-scoring affair this weekend.
Look who's back Harry Kane has scored 11 goals so far this seasonThe resumption of the Premier League will also be good news for those players who thought injury had put paid to their season. Spurs boss Jose Mourinho will be one of the bigger beneficiaries of that, with England striker Harry Kane likely to be back to full fitness. Kane had surgery on a hamstring injury in January that, under normal circumstances, would have ended his involvement in 2019-20, while his Spurs team-mate Son Heung-min, recently back from South Korea after completing national service, will also be able to feature after recovering from a broken arm.

LONDON, Jan 18 (Reuters) - Even when Liverpool are not in action they continue to bolster their seemingly impregnable Premier League lead and it happened again on Saturday as second-placed Manchester City could only draw 2-2 with Crystal Palace at the Etihad Stadium. Fernandinho's 90th-minute own goal robbed them of victory and left Pep Guardiola's side 13 points behind Liverpool who have played two games less and who can stretch their advantage to 16 if they beat Manchester United on Sunday.
It feels like a statement of the bleedin’ obvious to say a player should attack the game when they come on and their team is losing, yet there are millions of examples of a match passing a substitute by, no matter how willing they may be. Solskjaer studied opposing defences from the bench and developed the ability to blend seamlessly into the match.
Walsall have only won two of their nine home games in the league and Stevenage haven’t won away from home in League Two this season, but have picked up five draws, so you can see why we have backed the pair to play out a stalemate on Saturday.
