Tottenham defender Jan Vertonghen has signed a contract extension until the end of the season. The 33-year-old Belgium international's previous deal had been set to expire on 30 June. Vertonghen joined Spurs from Ajax in 2012 and said in April that several clubs had "come forward with serious proposals". Dutch goalkeeper Michel Vorm, 36, has also agreed to extend his stay with the London club. Tottenham's final game of the current season, which was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, is against Crystal Palace on 26 July.
They have won all seven of their home league games this season. That's 21 points earned which just happens to be seven more than their opponents have earned from all their league games this season. Liverpool have an awesome record against their opponents. They have gone 19 matches without defeat against Everton and not lost to them at home in 20 years.
Not feeling like a family member'A member of staff who works at Liverpool, and did not wish to be named, told BBC Sport: "The club call their staff their family - I'm not feeling like a family member. Why is a club that turns over £100m using a government scheme for its staff when other businesses are more in need of it?"I feel disappointed and I'm feeling that this government scheme could be used by businesses in trouble.

My client deserves to be treated as an innocent man, until proven guilty. So far there hasn't been any solid evidence against him. The key point in the Premier League's eyes, however, is that he had not been found guilty of those allegations when he took charge. After he left the club, he was charged with corruption and he denied any wrongdoing. City's current Abu Dhabi owners, who replaced Thaksin in 2008, have also been accused of whitewashing their country's human rights record.
The Danish FA said that for now all matches will go ahead as planned this coming weekend, but that it is monitoring the situation.

These two rivals are heading in opposition directions at the moment. This Derbi was an illustration of that. MAN OF THE MATCH - Ferland Mendy (Real Madrid) If ever there were any doubts over Mendy’s position as Real Madrid’s best left back, this performance laid them to rest.

Reims have built much of their success this season off of their aforementioned impeccably strong defence but this has often starved the attack of opportunities. They did score three goals against Saint-Étienne last week but this was the first time they'd done that this season, and just the second time since February. Reims have scored the third least goals in Ligue 1 this campaign but currently sit ninth due to their defence conceding the second least goals of all teams in the division.
Real Esteli U20 will against Juventus Managua U20 in match Nicaragua Youth. My prediction this match could be the end score is over 2.5 goals due to Real Esteli U20 on last 4 match in league can make total score is 15 goals. Meanwhile, Juventus Managua U20 on last 4 match in league can make total score is 7 goals. Therefore, I'm sure this match can be the end score is over 2.5 goals. Moreover Real Esteli U20 on last match in the home can beat Las Sabanas with score 7-1. Surely this match also can be much score from both team.
The Reds cannot afford to lose in Austria, a result that would likely see the defending champions knocked out of Europe's premier club competition in the group stages. Liverpool are now 11 points clear in the Premier League with Leicester and Manchester City still to play this weekend but the Anfield boss knows there is important work to come and the title is far from won.
Pahkan will be meeting with the away team shahin and this game we have given it an under of 3.5 total goals as this teams looking at them they have not being scoring many goals in their last meeting and so this makes us to be very sure with this prediction
More and more people are realising what a good side Wolves are from front to back, and what a good manager they have got in Nuno Espirito Santo. Wolves are pushing hard for a top-four finish, and I would be surprised if they don't pick up another three points here. Lawro's prediction: 0-2Alex's prediction: 0-2 Norwich v Man Utd (FA Cup quarter-final, 17:30 BST - live on the BBC)Norwich have lost both their league games at home since the restart without looking like scoring, and things seem pretty bleak for them at the bottom of the table.
Having added all four domestic honours available since returning for a second spell as manager in February last year, Lennon has spoken of needing European success to be bracketed alongside predecessors like O'Neill, Jock Stein and Willie Maley. But O'Neill believes leading Celtic to 10 in a row next season will cement his compatriot's iconic status. Neil has done both; he's done it as a player and as a manager.
Hours later the torch relay through Greece was cancelled after fears that unexpectedly large crowds on the route could spread the coronavirus. Formula One has now lost its first four races of the season with the first-ever race in Vietnam cancelled, along with Bahrain. The Chinese Grand Prix had already been called off and this weekend's opener in Melbourne was cancelled with all the teams already in place.
Victory strengthens Chelsea's hold on third place in the Premier League, where they sit four points above Leicester and Manchester United, who both play on Thursday. At this stage of the season results are critical and we didn't concede any chances of note to let them score," Lampard told Sky Sports. Where we are at as a team and where we are in the table, it is all about the result. Norwich, who were relegated following a 4-0 thrashing by West Ham on Saturday, failed to record a shot on target during the match.
Gladbach struck back five minutes after the restart with a Lars Stindl tap-in but Dortmund hit back in the 71st when Hakimi latched on to a Jadon Sancho through ball, raced into the box and beat keeper Yann Sommer.

Ante Rebic added a fourth to secure a memorable victory with 10 minutes remaining. Defeat sees Maurizio Sarri’s side miss the chance to move 10 points clear of second-placed Lazio, who lost 2-1 to relegation-threatened Lecce earlier on Tuesday. It took Maurizio Sarri’s visitors until first-half injury time to register their first shot on target, but Rabiot’s spectacular finish from the edge of the box – after running with the ball from his own half – sparked the contest into life.
Nonetheless, Saturday's game looks a tough one for the visitors and it's not easy to picture them securing any kind of result. Indeed, they've now lost 3 of their last 4 competitive games, conceding a big average of 2.5 goals a game in the process; showing they have clear defensive vulnerabilities.
New Orleans Saints only lost three games in the regular season. Minnesota Vikings have lost their last two games.

Is it reasonable or is it all going a bit too far?But fear is present and the outbreak of the virus is having an impact on clubs. Both Inter and AC Milan have closed their offices and staff are working from home, in a city where the underground system is eerily quiet and devoid of people. And some teams have expressed economic concerns about playing behind closed doors. No fans means no profits from ticket sales.
Robinson's Oxford reconnectionRobinson's grounded, hard-working approach is reflected in his team. He is a personality who has perspective on football's place in the world. He conducted his media briefing immediately after attending the funeral of Benik Afobe's two-year-old daughter Amora. Afobe scored two goals in that MK Dons win over Manchester United. Robinson knows the importance of family, having left Charlton Athletic in March 2018 for personal reasons.
This is a match that has great significance for both teams. Dusseldorf is fighting for survival in the league and they need every point. In the last round they were defeated by Bayern Munich 5-0 but that was expected. I don't think that defeat shook them much. This match is much more important to them because they play it at home. Hoffenheim wants to go to the Europa League, least of all to the qualifiers.
Odd finished in the fourth position, failed to play in Europa League qualifiers, they have a point advantage before the last matchday, but lost and dropped to the 4th position. The squad is better and more experience than last season.
Indeed, Lyon could have won by more. The next closest to a goal was when Karl Toko Ekambi met a corner at the front post with a backflick header that came back off the bar. Juventus' best chance fell to Paulo Dybala who shinned Alex Sandro's low cross wide from eight yards out. The French side were full value for their victory with Cristiano Ronaldo, kept to chances from range, failing to hit the target after coming into the game with 15 goals in his last 10 Serie A games.
Burton are not exactly the best placed team to take advantage of the woes of their hosts as they have failed to win in their last three away matches. However, they have earned 60% of their points on the road and have scored a massive 83% of their goals on their travels. That attacking output has it’s drawbacks though as they have also conceded 88% of their goals away from home.
He's a great man," said Zorc. The decision comes just days after Dortmund manager Lucien Favre said the attacking midfielder does not fit his current system. Right now, we are playing 3-4-3," Favre told the media before Saturday's Bundesliga match with Wolfsburg. So, I have been talking to Mario, and unfortunately this is not the right system for him. You must say the truth about this. Gotze started on the bench against Wolfsburg.

“Alexandria” decently broke away from the group of teams that are chasing the leaders in the Ukrainian Premier League standings. One of such groups is Dnipro-1, which scored 18 points in 17 rounds. The newcomer UPL shows a good level of the game, because it is unlikely to leave the championship following the season. Moreover, now there will be a big break and the transfer window will open, so there is an option to relax and intensify.
More atrocious defending from Villa left space for Aguero to score his 175th Premier League goal in the 28th minute, before Kevin De Bruyne fired in a superb centre for Gabriel Jesus to make it four on the stroke of half time. Aguero then netted 12 minutes into the second half to move clear of Henry, before completing his 12th Premier League hat-trick, more than any other player, late on to move level with Frank Lampard in the all-time goalscoring list.
The fourth round fixture pits a team battling the immediate threat of relegation against one trying to climb out of mediocre depths. The Cherries have had an extremely testing campaign. Long-serving boss and club legend Eddie Howe has never been under as much pressure. A 3-1 win over Brighton last weekend let out some air but Bournemouth remain 18th, albeit only on goal difference.

Prior to the game, it had been hinted that Pogba would be fit to play. United did lift their game once Lingard was substituted, with his replacement Andreas Pereira almost making an instant impact as he hit the side netting. There were also chances for Fred and substitute Mason Greenwood, but without the injured Scott McTominay, and the ongoing problems with Pogba, United looked short on creativity in midfield and need to find solutions quickly should they want to maintain a top-four challenge.
Selling Aubameyang could offer the least troublesome option of an invidious selection of choices for Arsenal. Any buyer would have to take a similar gamble, though that has not prevented a list of prominent clubs being linked with him.

We’re confident that Partizan will win their final group game in the Europa League and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-0. The hosts have been competitive in Group L, a lot more so than Thursday’s guests, and we expect the Serbs to secure a home win. Astana did beat United last time out but that freak result doesn’t mask what has been a poor campaign from the Kazakhstan side and we believe they will lose their third and final away game on Thursday.

Interesting match will be played in France 2, between Valenciennes and Ajaccio, home team is at 8th place at standings, and with a very small chances for place in playoff, especial after defeat in last round against Niort, club which is struggling against relegation. Ajaccio is at second place at standings, but only single point above Lens and Troyes, they have two victories in a row, but against two clubs from the bottom of standings, and this will be a huge test for their players, club management would like three points from this duel, but I guess even a draw would not be a bad result for visitors.

It puts pressure on boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer only a few short weeks after the Norwegian masterminded back-to-back wins over Spurs and City in the league. Solskjaer's problem is that he has found no consistency with United, and it's often one step forward and two steps back. They have followed up that win in the Etihad with two wins from their five Premier League games since.
We tried to extend his contract for a very long time," Wenger told Bein Sports, "He was always a very talented boy who lacked confidence in some stages, but we always thought we had a player who could achieve a lot. Wenger may debate Gnabry's road to Bayern, but the forward's career at the Bundesliga champions - via a loan spell at Hoffenheim - has made him an important player for the German national team.
Smolevichy is small favorite to win this match, not because they are better team playing better football, simply because they have home advantage. However Vitebsk very often can be dangerous and tricky opponent. So far Smolevichy are still without win so they will try to use this opportunity to get their first victory this season.
