TALKING POINT - This Derbi illustrated how these two rivals are heading in opposite directions While Real Madrid have lost just once in 22 La Liga games this season, Atletico Madrid are without a win in their last five matches in all competitions and now face a fight to finish in La Liga’s top four. Indeed, Simeone’s side could finish the weekend as low as seventh in the table.
Da Silva Lopes, who joined from Wigan last August, claimed his first Hull goal after just six minutes. Callum Elder crossed from the left and, when Marc Guehi could only glance the ball to the far post, Da Silva Lopes' low shot flew into the net via a slight deflection off Jake Bidwell. Wayne Routledge scored the first of three Swansea equalisers at HullSwansea responded with a fine team goal only eight minutes later.
Unbeaten in five, Gent have performed well in this competition, so much so that they look on course to win the group. A win would ensure that the Belgians emerge as group winners, though even a defeat could be enough depending on what Wolfsberg do against St. Etienne.

Coming into this game, Hannover 96 has picked 6 points from the last 5 games, both home and away. That 1.2 points per game on average. BTTS has landed in just 2 of those games. Hannover 96 has scored 6 Times in the last 5 fixture.
To begin with, the teams are now at different levels and solve different tasks. Juventus is fighting for the championship and I think they count on a minimum for the Champions League final. Ronaldo began to score again stably. His confidence is also reflected in the whole team. The quality of the game in many matches of Turin leaves much to be desired, but they achieve the result. Napoli, in every match, tries to find the game. The loss of Mertens became generally fatal. Without it, Napoli almost does not score. Only 4 goals in the last 5 matches. Gattuso is not a coach. I don’t know where the Napoli leadership is looking. His impulsiveness and tactical settings absolutely do not bring results. This was clear already from work in Milan.
Strange odds for this match, I think there is a huge value on this double chance bet at 1,50. Real price should be as low as 1,27. Mikashevichi is way stronger than Volna and they are way underrated for this match, especially at home.
Botafogo have in recent years been in the shadow of Rio rivals Flamengo, Vasco da Gama and Fluminense. Although they captured the Rio State Championship for the 21st time in 2018, they have not claimed the Serie A title since 1995 and have never won the Copa Libertadores, South America's premier club competition.
Only striker Teemu Pukki with 14 goal involvements has more for the club. But Cantwell has not always been universally popular with Canaries supporters and he addressed this in a tweet in December saying: "I'm on my way to the top and no-one is going to stop me. Having won one England Under-21 cap, he may count himself unlucky to emerge amid a generation of attacking midfielders that includes James Maddison, Jack Grealish, Mason Mount and Phil Foden.
Fulham has 57 points at this moment and wants to get on 3rd place with a win today and to get closer to the top 2 clubs Leeds and West Brom who seem to once more getting a bit of distance between them and the rest of the pack in the league, while Fulham has just 2 draws and one 3-0 loss at home to modest Barnsley in their last 3 Championship games, but still they won 2-1 away from home at Swansea but I do not trust their defense here and really not so sure they will win.
Posted at 63' Foul by Emiliano Buendía (Norwich City). A rampant Hibernian demolished Inverness Caledonian Thistle to storm into the Scottish Cup semi-finals. Adam Jackson, Scott Allan and Greg Docherty put the hosts 3-0 up at Easter Road after Paul Hanlon had been denied from the spot by Mark Ridgers. The Championship side pulled one back through Carl Tremarco, only for Brad Mckay to be sent off a minute later.
Leicester City celebrate scoring against BrentfordGetty Images TALKING POINT Plucky Brentford unfortunate to earn at least a replay.

Santos is fighting for second, not that it gives them anything extra, but for the pride as them and Palmeiras have a little rivalry since one is from Sao Paulo and the other one is from Rio de Janeiro. Palmeiras Will have a difficult game against the champions Flamengo and that will give Santos the chance to get ahead on the table. Santos is clearly stronger has a way better squad. Chapecoense already sealed their fate with the Serie B being their place for next season. This next games is just filling calendar and trying new things. That is not enough to beat Santos
Potential sanctions range from fines to a transfer embargo, or even a points deduction. The Mail believe it is unlikely that City will be stripped of any previous Premier League title wins. Paper Round's view: Manchester City might've beaten Real Madrid at the Bernabeu on Wednesday, but the celebrations will be over by now.

I'm proud of what I've achieved with Liverpool and Holland. It's going to be tough [to win the award] when these guys are around. Video - Van Dijk more deserving of Ballon d'Or than Messi - Klopp00:29 Rapinoe earned her award after leading the United States to a record-extending fourth World Cup title in France this year as they retained the trophy.
But it was Holland in the 1970s that really took my breath away. It was a mystery to me. The television was too small; I felt like I need to see the whole pitch fully to understand what they were doing and fully to appreciate it. Arrigo Sacchi talks with Marco van BastenImago Cruyff the player was gloriously impudent, a slight and graceful genius who proved that brain could outmanoeuvre brawn.
The victory for Peter Bosz's side means they rise to fifth while Dortmund remain third - three points behind leaders Bayern Munich, who face second-placed RB Leipzig on Sunday. The game set off at a frenetic pace and Erling Braut Haaland, who was making his first Bundesliga start for Dortmund, had already narrowly missed two chances when his side fell behind to Volland's first of the game - a cool finish after being sent clear by Nadiem Amiri.
Caglar Soyuncu: There might be an argument that if Wolves forward Raul Jimenez had taken his chances, then Soyuncu would not have been in my team of the week. That may be true, but fortune favours the brave and Soyuncu threw himself at Jimenez in the final minutes to help Leicester earn a point. The Turkey international, along with Jonny Evans, defended superbly - and with 10 men in the end. Wolves manager Nuno Espirito Santo expressed exasperation with VAR and maintained that fans are getting increasingly frustrated with the technology, especially when a goal is disallowed and a player has not taken any clear advantage.
Dushanbe 83 is new team in league, while Lokomotiv has been returned to the highest level after long time.

They have more than five international players in the lineup, mostly from Ghana, and time is needed for them to show quality.

The new manager effect could play a key role here as Ljunberg looks to end a run of five winless games in the Premier League, and in all fairness he couldn’t have wished for a better fixture to start with.
It was quite astonishing that there was no recognition of what we were beginning to achieve in Scotland. Even the Scottish press dismissed you at the time, but that game changed everything. We changed our lives pretty considerably from the point of view of being recognised as international players. It's like a performer doing the north of England clubs then getting a chance at the London Palladium and then everybody knows you.
This game will see a clash between two of the Bundesliga's lowest-scoring teams. Cologne have scored just 19 goals in the Bundesliga this season.

United are six points behind. Man United were a bit behind but now they have closed the gap so it's a big opportunity either for us to keep them behind or for them to close the gap more," midfielder Kante said. It's an important game for both teams. We all know that Man United at home is a very difficult game, especially after what happened in the first game but we don't look at this.
