It's a great result but we have to keep our focus here on in. It's not a season-changing result but it's an important one, especially in the context of our own situation. There is an awful long way to go. I think what it does, it quantifies the work the players have put in over the last few games. But I'm not naive enough to think that we are anywhere near concluding what we set out to do.
Wigan have lost nine of their 13 away trips this season, while they now have one victory to show for their last 34 away games in the second tier. With that long-running issue bothering the Latics, we have little faith in them coming into this game. After 18 months of bad results on the road, Wigan look like the perfect opponents for a Birmingham side who need a win.

Paper Round’s view: Shaw only has himself to blame. He has had three managers to convince over his worth, and from Louis van Gaal onwards there have been concerns over his weight and commitment. With Solskjaer looking to move on players who don’t show the requisite talent and steel it is probably time to move on Shaw, who has wasted his opportunity one season after the next.

Bristol City, who've scored at least twice in three of their last five at home, may not have been prolific winners of late, but this game represents an opportunity for success. Punters can profit by siding with the hosts to take all three points. Rovers attacking efforts on the road simply don't match up to City's at home, while the visitors have also done a worse job at the back. The Robins have also done a better job of bettering teams in terms of shots on target for. They're average shots on target supremacy may be slight at +0.10, but it's better than Blackburn's of -1.8. Moreover, no team has conceded as many shots than Rovers away from home in the Championship this season. Throw in the fact that the away side are going to be without key player and top-scorer Bradley Dack and the home win looks too good to turn down.

He has great quality and works hard for the team. Struggling Watford ended a string of three straight defeats against Crystal Palace in a scrappy game watched by their incoming manager Nigel Pearson, whose first game in charge could not be harder -- a trip to Liverpool next Saturday.

When he turns up at the national team training camps you can see him laughing and mixing with the group. And he doesn't treat people who are playing in the Moroccan or Egyptian leagues differently to the players who are based in Europe and is also someone who offers the young players advice and helps them. Ziyech's altruistic nature was also highlighted when he offered financial support to Leon de Kogel in 2019 after the Dutch footballer's career was ended in a car crash while on holiday.
“Marseille” has already proved that the location of the team in the leaders of the French championship is far from an accident. Wards Andre Villas-Boas continue to confidently gain points and move, if not to fight with the “PSG” for the first line, then for second place for sure. However, the “Bordeaux” is far from the weakest. What are only six goals scored in the last round. The club goes without defeats and fairly competes for the top three. The result of the upcoming meeting is unpredictable. The only thing you can be sure of is that we will see many goals. They like to hammer that those that others.
Manuel brought the footballer into goalkeeping and revolutionised this position," said Rummenigge -- although Colombia's Rene Higuita claimed to have invented the sweeper-keeper role in the 1990s and Mexico's Jorge Campos sometimes played as a striker for UNAM. Manchester City boss Guardiola won the Bundesliga in each of his three seasons at Bayern although Champions League success eluded him.

West Ham have been on a run of bad results of late with them sitting a few points adrift of the relegation zone coupled with the fact that during this game they will be at the lions den the Etihad stadium they will be defeated. Manchester city on the other hand will be looking for retribution in form of a Westham thrashing after a disappointing performance at the Hotspurs.

This is a kid who has spent time learning under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, one of the most natural finishers we’ve seen, and soaked up every single minute. He’s had his dad, former Norwegian international Alf-Inge, with him every step of the way, teaching him the business of football. He has recently told Eurosport about how important it is to stay grounded.

On a late counter, Tammy Abraham and Willian linked up to allow the former to slide the ball between Leno’s legs for the winner. There was no pumped-up David Luiz to make a goal-saving block, no captain fantastic Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang busting a gut to help out his defence, just poor Bukayo Saka, giving absolutely everything to get back before his body completely gave up on him.
Italia. Match between teams Inter and Napoli. It will be a cups match. Inter after a great victory vs Milan are favorites here. But I think that we will see some changes from Konte. The next their match will with Lazio . So, there will very important game, too .
Match of Romanian Top league. Team Universitatea Craiova will play at home with team Voluntari. My bet will be over 3 goals. Hosts takes 4 place in the table with 34 points. They scored 8 goals at last 3 home matches played. Guests are in the bottom of the table with 8 points. They did a draw and 2 defeats at last 3 away matches played , 2 - 2 goals.

When we were at Barcelona, he was in our plans. He has evolved a lot. He's a very interesting player. We are delighted with his performances. Paper Round’s view: Traore offers excellent technical ability that is hugely dangerous when coupled with his maturing approach to the game alongside his ridiculous speed.
today I take look at the Italian serie b where virtus entella will be hosting cremonese at stadio comunale. The hosts are 5th on the table with 30 points they have lost only 1 match in there last 5 played. They are undefeated in their last five home matches which is quite impressive. The visitors cremonese are 17th on the log with 22 points there recent form inst that bad with two wins in their last 5 matches drawing twice and losing twice but there away record is quite poor with no wins in there last five matches. With virtus entella good home form and cremonese poor away record I see a home win for entella
Tottenham sit in fifth. That is their level under this manager. They are less than the sum of their parts.

While qualification for the knockout stages has already been secured, Wolves still have a chance to land first spot in Group K – a finish that could potentially hand them an easier route through the Last 32 when the competition resumes in the new year.
The hosts did have a strong home record to boost them last year, but of late they’ve struggled at the DW. Now the pressure is on them as they look to turn around their terrible form in the toughest clash they’ll face at this ground this season.
Chelsea will allow N'Golo Kante to stay away from training because of coronavirus fears - even if it means missing the rest of the season. The French midfielder, 29, returned to limited training on Tuesday at the club's Cobham base. But he has since decided to train at home, a move supported by Chelsea. Kante caused concern among team-mates in 2018 when he fainted after a training session; his brother died of a heart attack the same year.
It would devalue it and I think those clubs that have done well and are at the top deserve to be there," he said.

They started the day five points above the relegation zone and in severe lack of form in front of goal after drawing blanks in their previous four league outings.

After a slight start, the Seoul E-Land players are starting to play on the reels. Consecutive 3 recent games, representatives of the capital are triumphal songs.
