Newcastle United's Saudi Arabian-led takeover could be complicated by the World Trade Organisation ruling that the country helped breach international piracy laws. The proposed £300m deal is 80% financed by the country's Public Investment Fund, whose chairman is Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman. It is currently awaiting approval via the Premier League's owners' and directors' test, which looks into the background of prospective club owners.
Liverpool require two wins to secure their first English top flight title in 30 years and former boss Kenny Dalglish said it would be a travesty if the season is cancelled. That wouldn't be fair and any person with football at heart would admit that would be totally out of order," Dalglish wrote in his column for The Sunday Post newspaper.
This match could be a close to the second bore draw result in the new season of the Belarus top league. Both teams are playing with one goal mostly at their games, and are with a lot of players in the back and the mid of the pitch.
TALKING POINT Carlo continues to turn tables at Goodison. Everton had slipped into the relegation zone after a crushing 5-2 defeat at rivals Liverpool back in December, with many holding genuine fears about their top-flight status. However, since Ancelotti's first game in charge, a 1-0 victory over Burnley on Boxing Day - the last time Crystal Palace won a league game - The Toffees have lost only to Manchester City in the Premier League, and now, perhaps, even have ambitious hopes of upsetting the top four.
The only absentee from his squad who could figure on Wednesday night was Raheem Sterling, who is hoping to recover from a hamstring injury in time to feature against the team he talked about joining this week. This was a decent warm-up for that tie, and an altogether more demanding test than the midweek stroll over a meek West Ham side. Aymeric Laporte was again used for around an hour as he builds his fitness, and showed his value to the side with quick balls forward as well as calm defending under pressure.

It's another Merseyside derby in the FA Cup. Liverpool beat Everton at home in the third round two years ago and look to repeat that win this weekend. A weakened line-up will be fielded but their strong squad will still see them fielding a strong line-up. Anfield continues to be a fortress and they take on an Everton side that still haven't won there in the 21st century. They have improved in recent weeks but their squad isn't as strong as that of their neighbours. Go for a home win.
In January last year, Solskjaer took his squad to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates and sent some of his players there again in November during an international break. United have also previously used the Aspire Academy in Qatar's capital Doha for a winter training camp. There has been a rise in tensions in the region after senior Iranian commander Qasem Soleimani was killed in a US air strike in Baghdad and a Ukrainian International Airlines plane was accidentally shot down in Tehran, killing all 176 passengers.
I believe that home team will win in this match in Germany Cup and in the same time, I believe that they will try to win this competition or trophy. So, Bayer Leverkusen is very good team who is not so long ago played very good match against Porto at Dragao stadium, in Portugal, and they are beat this big club very easy 3-1. Team is in this moment in 1/8 final of Europa League, but they are also want good results and in this Cup. Over is ok for me, because I see here 3-1 or 4-2 home win.
Liverpool announced in June 2019 that Sturridge - who scored eight times in 26 appearances for England - would be leaving the club that summer at the end of his contract. He went on to score seven goals in 16 appearances for six-time Turkish champions Trabzonspor. The former Manchester City and Chelsea forward's most recent England appearance came as a substitute in a World Cup qualifier against Lithuania in October 2017.
It is harder to win trophies now than during the glory days under Sir Alex Ferguson, says Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. United won 38 trophies - including 13 Premier League titles - in Ferguson's 26-and-a-half years as manager. However, they have won just three trophies in seven seasons since Ferguson retired in 2013. We've got to be honest enough to say it is more difficult now," said Solskjaer.
Lazio is playing superb football at this moment and especially in home games they score a lot of goals for example just look at their last 3 home games starting with a 4-0 win over Cremonese in the Cup, followed by a 5-1 win in the league against Sampdoria and same score a few days ago in the league as well against Spal the scored being 4-0 in the first half alone with their two strikers Ciro Immobile and Caicedo both scoring two goals, and one more goal from both those teams in the second half made the final score 5-1 in the end.
Groningen secured all three points away at Vitesse last time out, while Feyenoord edged a five-goal thriller at home to newly-promoted RKV 3-2 and the pair both sit on twenty points from their opening fifteen matches.
Pep Guardiola says Manchester City are "not used to doing these things" after his side won at Real Madrid for the first time to take control of their Champions League last-16 tie. Isco had put Real ahead but a Gabriel Jesus strike and a Kevin de Bruyne penalty secured a 2-1 first-leg win. It is the first time City have won at a major European team in the knockout stage of the competition. To win at the Bernabeu is a great satisfaction for us," Guardiola said.
The shy Swede with vibrant pink hair. The surprisingly private underwear model. Arsenal's new caretaker manager Freddie Ljungberg is a paradox, a far more reserved man than the bolder image many have of him may suggest. Over 12 years since departing as a player, former winger Ljungberg, 42, has been called on to save the Gunners' season following the sacking of Unai Emery. He's an Arsenal and Sweden legend, but what else do we know about the Gunners' new interim boss? The shy one?Trading Arsenal for West Ham after nine years in 2007, Ljungberg - a key figure in Arsenal's record-breaking 'Invincibles' side that went a whole Premier League season without defeat in 2003-04 - departed as a two-time Premier League and three-time FA Cup winner.
FIFA said a fund, financed by a levy of one percent on all transfer fees, would be created to partly finance training compensation. Under FIFA rules, the club where a player began their career is supposed to receive a percentage of the fee every time they are subsequently involved in an international transfer.
The Chiefs won the Super Bowl in 1970 and had to wait half a century for their second triumph. A third may well happen just a year after the last one. You have to go back to the Super Bowl played in 2005 for the last time a team won a second successive Super Bowl. It was the New England Patriots who achieved that feat and the Chiefs have a good chance here.
Minister Kralev urged the BFU to re-notify in written form all its members about the restrictions, imposed and the subsequent sanctions for their violation," the sports ministry said in a statement. Soccer in the Black Sea state has been suspended for almost a month and the BFU has said the ban will remain in place for the top divisions at least until May 13.
If we look at their results, Portsmouth might not stand out as a team likely to be involved in a low-scoring game, though if we scratch beneath the surface and consider the efforts of the hosts, 'Under 2.5 Goals' stands out as a viable option.

He told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: "I'm sure that we will adjust accordingly. I think for the integrity of the competition and competitions, especially the top end of English football and European football, they'll want to finish the season. I believe that there will be an ability next year to adjust, with international breaks, with moving a few games into midweek. We have that ability through organisation and planning to finish this season off.

Manchester City's Premier League match with Arsenal on Wednesday has been postponed as a "precautionary measure" and several Gunners players are in self-isolation after Olympiakos owner Evangelos Marinakis contracted coronavirus. Arsenal say Marinakis, 52, met a number of their players when the Gunners hosted the Greek side in a Europa League match two weeks ago. Marinakis - who also owns Championship side Nottingham Forest - said on Tuesday he had tested positive for Covid-19.
Falkenberg is going to face Hacken. The hosts of this clash are huge underdogs here but it will be the first leg of the new season in Sweden and everything is possible. The hosts were good at home in the previous season and I think that at this time they got even more chances to win against a team like Hacken. The visitors are obviously better team but no one knows how will they play in this match. I see a chance for this value pick for Falkenberg and the hosts can make a big surprise today. I pick Falkenberg to win this match

It is important that players get the ball on their feet again," Baumgart said. That is why we have created the training sessions in such a way that ball activities are the focus. Weight and fitness sessions will be done individually, he said. Eintracht Frankfurt trained in pairs. Bayern v DortmundGetty Images Germany has seen the number of infected people rise above 100,000 this weekend and nearly 1,600 have died after testing positive for the virus that has forced the country into lockdown.
More Roma goals seem likely, with the hosts averaging 2.2 goals per game here this term. However, they’ve also seen both teams score in 75% of their home games. Given that Torino come into this one having scored seven times in their last four matches, we see them threatening the hosts in this clash. Torino have scored in 11 of their last 14 away trips, while 59% of their total Serie A goals this term have come on the road.

I know you're a big Fifa fan and - last summer you were playing with your friends in Los Angeles and you had to have an early night. What happened?Haha! We always take our PlayStations when we go away. One night I wasn't the best, I got beat and I stormed off to bed… but in the winter break, I went to Miami and I think I was unbeaten. It's not about what happened in the summer, it's about what happened more recently!Trent Alexander-Arnold was speaking to BBC Sport before Liverpool's 3-0 defeat by Watford.
Neither of these sides are in the best of form at present. That's bad news for both sides with Luton deep in relegation trouble and Wednesday's promotion hopes fading a bit. Luton have gone two games without scoring and badly need to get some wins. Wednesday are in the same situation with no wins in their last four league fixtures. They have had some good away form but betting on an outright win is risky considering their current form so go for a double chance bet on them.
It's all got a bit too much," Real coach Zidane told a news conference. I'm just looking at what he can give us on the pitch, not what's said off it, that doesn't interest me. I believe he can become a decisive player for us again. He's an important player when he is injury free; he's shown that before and he will show it again.
Chelsea's performance against Crystal Palace on Tuesday sort of summed them up for me at the moment - they were good going forward, and they were very average at the back. That is just the way Frank Lampard's side are right now. As dangerous as they look in attack, you can get at them too. Lawro's prediction: 1-1Scotty's prediction: I've never seen a team overachieve as much as Sheffield United have done this season.
It is 30 long years since Liverpool last won the title and with a 25-point lead the trophy was as good as secured, until the coronavirus pandemic intervened and the Premier League hit the pause button, until April 4 at least. Scrapping the season as if it never happened would be horribly harsh on Liverpool but advantageous for some clubs, including West Ham, in danger of being relegated.
He's now Arsenal manager," Guardiola added. We prepared the Leicester game without him and tried to work the way we have the last years. We will work a little bit harder, that's all.

Like football around the world, the Bundesliga has been suspended because of the global health crisis, depriving clubs of much of their revenue for possibly months.
