That victory has pushed them four points clear of the drop zone, but their problems are far from over. Stoke will be chasing vital points in Tuesday’s meeting, with this game potentially huge in the fight for survival. The hosts have lost their last three games, but they will believe that this home clash is a chance to turn things around.
The win also sees them reach the 61-point mark - the highest points tally any team has gained in the history of Europe’s top-five leagues after 21 games. The records and milestones continue to rack up and it would surely take the biggest collapse in memory to stop that elusive PL trophy from finally making its way to Anfield come May.
After their success against Blackburn in the FA Cup, Birmingham are hoping that things are going to pick up for them in the league. The Blues are in 18th place, with relegation fears remaining as they move into the latter half of the campaign. However, the visitors have a chance to ease those in this clash with Luton.
He had the respect of managers, fans and players. He wasn't liked by other fans, but it didn't affect him - it probably spurred him on if anything, and he delivered.

We've got unbelievable players that are in form and you can't argue against that. When you see people put it in the top corner, scoring goals and winning games – you can't change a winning team. I think I've been lucky in the sense of the amount of minutes I've played. For me personally I had a bit of a rocky start to the season with playing time, injury and little things like that.
Jan Oblak remained inspired, as Simeone's go-to general in all his battles always does, defying Liverpool time and again. The Atletico crossbar was rattled, the visitors were living dangerously, but Simeone remained unflustered. Then came his masterstroke. With perennial pantomime villain Diego Costa struggling, Simeone decided it was time to hook his striker.
To be honest, if we had no arrivals and no exits, I'd still be satisfied. Tottenham HotspurNathan Clark - The Extra Inch Podcast Having loaned in a short-term replacement for the injured Moussa Sissoko in Gedson Fernandes, the club appear to be hoping to do the same in order to cover for Harry Kane. But I would like to see a more permanent investment into defensive midfield. For that purpose, I hope Tottenham look to Benfica again, this time for Florentino Luis: A phenomenal ball-winner who would give our more technical players a platform for control.
the Misr Lel Makasa fc and the El Geish fc team, go head to head in Egypt Premier League. The Misr Lel Makasa fc team is in 15th position with 16 point. While guest team the El Geish fc team came in 16th place by collecting 16 points. The Misr Lel Makasa fc team playing at home 5 times, no matches ended in a won, but the guest team the El Geish fc team playing at away 5 times, 3 of them ended in a loss.
Brendan Rodgers wants Leicester to "create new history" by reaching the Carabao Cup final with victory over Premier League rivals Aston Villa. The Foxes, who last won the trophy in 2000, host Villa in the first leg of their semi-final on Wednesday. I'm aware the club hasn't been to a final for 20 years so let's get there then," Rodgers said, with his side strong favourites. The winners will play Manchester United or Manchester City in the final.
Man City boss Pep Guardiola has won 21 of his previous 25 finals as a top-flight manager, including all six with City (2 Community Shields, 3 League Cups, 1 FA Cup). Aston Villa have scored 20 League Cup goals this season, the last side to net 20+ in a single EFL Cup campaign were Manchester City in 2013-14 (22).
When we were together at City, I actually used to smash him up and down in training and he always used to get mad at me and ask why the hell I was doing that. I told him that his position in the team was safe but I needed to do well in training otherwise I wouldn't be playing at the weekend - I'd say 'if I need to smash you mate, I am smashing you'. In the end we had an agreement that he wouldn't come near me and there wouldn't be any problems.
Uefa takes its responsibilities on this seriously and it is right that we offset the carbon emissions that causes. Who are the favourites?It feels pretty wide open. Will no side having 'home' advantage play a part?The bookmakers in the UK have World Cup holders France as favourites, ahead of England (who could play all but two of their games at Wembley on the way to a potential final), Belgium, Germany and Spain.
The hosts are in danger following a huge slump in form, which cost Vincenzo Montella his job. Since the start of November, Fiorentina have picked up only three points in Serie A – only Toulouse (0) and Nîmes (1) have won fewer points in the top-5 European leagues in this period. That’s bound to have hit this side hard.
We wonder why, when we get to a tournament, England can't perform to the level," the 59-year-old said. For the international footballer of today, it's a huge problem, it's absolutely ridiculous. They don't get a break any more. They are machines and they break down. Someone like Harry Kane, an injury like he has had comes from playing too often, playing Saturday, Tuesday for evermore. As fit as he is, to pull a tendon like he has, it's fixture congestion.
With Derby losing their last six away games to nil, we see a chance for Wigan to recapture last season’s good home form. They have scored a single goal in each of their last three home games, which should be enough to beat this Derby team. As a result, we are backing a 1-0 home victory for the Latics.
Rafael Nadal has played and won seven singles/doubles matches this week. Spain are yet to lose a doubles match this week. Rafael Nadal has only ever lost one Davis Cup singles and not lost in the doubles since 2006. The new format has proved to be successful and on Sunday, Canada will be attempting to win the Davis Cup for the first time in their history.
Tottenham are investigating after right-back Serge Aurier appeared to breach coronavirus social-distancing rules for the third time. The 27-year-old posted a photo on social media of himself and a barber after getting a haircut. Hairdressers will open from 4 July at the earliest in England, and people cannot have visitors at their homes. Tottenham said they were "investigating the circumstances and will deal with the incident appropriately".
In an ideal world we'd be playing in front of crowds but I think it's more a case of there being no alternative," Barnes told The Athletic. We're not in an ideal world and the players I've spoken to accept that's what it will have to be. Football is about fans. But the reality for the vast majority of the players, particularly at the highest level, is their income is funded by television money and there are contracts that have to be adhered to.

This fixture features No. 7 vs No. 8 in the league, General Diaz vs Sportivo San Lorenzo. The hosts coming from a 3 - 1 away loss to Libertad (no. 2 in the league) and their last home game a 3 - 1 win over Deportivo Capiata. The visitors coming from a 0 - 0 home draw to Guarani (No. 4 in the league) and their last away game a 1 - 1 draw with Deportivo Capiata. The hosts should win this one as they played a higher table team than the visitors scoring one goal and conceding multiple goals to lose the match then playing a team below the hosts and scoring multiple goals and conceding to win facing a team coming from playing a team above themselves and the hosts and drawing the match then also drawing their last away game but to a team below themselves so an over 2.5 is best to tip here.
We know our supporters are disappointed. My wish is, tomorrow, every supporter helps the team and helps the players. Our confidence depends a lot on how we can feel in our stadium with our supporters. Teams are coming here playing fearlessly, we need to be strong and together. Emery said midfielder Granit Xhaka could return to the squad for the first time since his vocal outburst in October during a 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace when he swore at home fans on being substituted and was later stripped of the captain's armband.
We feel that the Bundesliga's best defensive team, in Wolfsburg, stand a good chance of keeping the scoreline relatively low in this game. Wolfsburg have seen under 3.5 goals in 15 of their 16 Bundesliga games. They have also seen under 3.5 goals in all seven of their Bundesliga away games.
These two teams drew just 1-1 at Kapfenberg earlier this season but the guests are quite desperate for the 3 points to escape the relegation zone, only problem is that their defense has not been great at all losing 3 of the 4 games played since the restart in the league they even lost 5-0 away at league leaders from Ried and also a 3-2 loss at 2nd placed A. Klagenfurt despite having the lead quite late in the game they ended up losing even a point.
You also have to remember their wages will vary hugely, in the top flight alone. Jordan Henderson has set up a fund for the NHS along with fellow Premier League captainsNot all Premier League players are multi-millionaires, yet they are being generalised - and, in some places, criticised - as a single group whether they are superstars or not. From my own experiences, however, everyone will want to do their bit, whatever their circumstances.
Nice have won this competition three times in the club's history but the most recent triumph was in 1997 so there is definitely a fever in the city to get back on top of this tournament. They have a relatively easy opponent for their first match and have some good form to take into this game.
So when they equalised when Armstrong's strike found the net, albeit with a heavy deflection off James Maddison, it was not too much of a surprise. They could have easily gone into the break ahead too, with Ings twice denied by the crossbar as half-time approached. Leicester were a sterner test in the second half but Saints more than matched them and they would have had a penalty but for the intervention of VAR.

Whilst all the form suggests that Plymouth Argyle are the side who are likely to come away from the Abbey Stadium with the three points, it is something which will be hard earned. The hosts are strong on home soil and are undefeated in their last four games there, however, their overall record is not quite as polished as they have won just three of nine home matches. Given the current strength of the visitors, backing them with the added caution of the “Draw – No Bet” clause appears to be the wisest move to make.

City's number 2 was talked about as a possible successor to Arsene Wenger when the Frenchman stepped down 18 months ago, but was eschewed in favour of former Paris Saint Germain boss Emery. Of course he’ll [Arteta] be a manager sooner or later, he’s young, always he’ll have that," said Guardiola. We are going to finish the season and in future I don’t know what will happen.
Christian Doidge (Hibernian) right footed shot from very close range to the top right corner. Assisted by Greg Docherty. Championship leaders West Bromwich Albion moved nine points clear of third-placed Fulham in the race for promotion with a dominant victory at play-off chasing Bristol City. Callum Robinson gave the Baggies the lead in fortunate circumstances, the ball rebounding in off his head after Robins keeper Dan Bentley had saved the forward's initial shot.
Happy Valley Elsewhere, there's some good news for fans in South East London as Championship side Charlton Athletic have announced that thesale of the club to East Street Investments has been agreed. The club's new directors are His Excellency Tahnoon Nimer, Chairman of Abu Dhabi Business Development, and the private office of Sheikh Saeed Bin Tahnoon Al Nahyan, and Jonathan Heller, Chief Executive of Abu Dhabi Business Development.
By beating Shirak in the recent round, on away ground, Lori did show that team has championship potential, and their ambition is to try getting to the title this season. They are on the second position now, only two points from the leader, and should try to use home pitch advantage, in order to push for the three point in this one.
Den Haag have one win in 26 meetings with PSV. PSV have no win in seven away league matches. Den Haag have two wins in their last 15 league matches. PSV are unbeaten in their last 17 matches against Den Haag. Den Haag have one win in 12 matches. ADO Den Haag have endured a very tough campaign so far and as they head to their home match against giants PSV Eindhoven, their sights are trained on a first win in four matches.
The side have performed at roughly the same level at both ends of the pitch, scoring an average of 1.24 goals per game whilst conceding 1.36 goals per game. Their figures are similar to the sides at the top of the bottom half, a position that is probably more fair to the side but they’ve picked up some good results at the right time, something that could be key in determining their success this season.
Speaking of sides who will be hoping to kick on in the second half of the campaign, Bradford City know that they too have set a decent platform to build from and they will be hoping they can bounce back into League One at the first attempt following their relegation at the end of last season. However, much like their hosts, they know that they need to convert some of those draws into wins if they are to accomplish their goals.
After a faltering and disappointing start to Belarus' new high-flying campaign after suffering two trotting losses, Saturday's hosts Gorodeya recovered in style by winning their last three league trotting matches in Liga Vysshaya.

A disciple of Johan Cruyff's possession-based style of play, the Barca coach is an ideological opposite to Bordalas, who has developed a reputation of building hard-nosed teams who are unafraid to dabble in the dark arts. While in charge of second division Lugo, Setien accused Bordalas' Alcorcon of time wasting.

Paper Round’s view: This move may be workable. Thibaut Courtois has yet to truly convince in Spain this time around, but it may be tough to get him to move on due to his family commitments - perhaps he could switch back to Atletico if Jan Oblak moves on. As for De Gea, it appears that he is in need of a switch, and United could use the funds of a sale for their squad rebuild.
The hosts are also known as The Cong, they were newly promoted at the start of last season in the first league level but easily kept themselves in the first league level and won 6 points from the two games played in the league against Thanh Hoa as they won with 3-1 on the road and with 2-1 at home and in that home game with Thanh Hoa they had the lead 2-0 from the 40 minute of the game only conceding the 2-1 goal in the 60 minute but that was it as far as the goals being scored in that encounter..

The visitors have won to nil in 50% of their away trips, while Wigan have failed to score in 40% of their league games. Given that run, we are going for a 1-0 victory for the visitors this week.
Jesus's 29-year coaching career included six years with Benfica and three seasons at Sporting, and the presidents of both Portuguese clubs were present at the ceremony.

Chelsea are unbeaten in five of their last six Premier League matches away from home. Leicester have failed to win four of their last six Premier League matches at home.
