The Premier League, English Football League, Women's Super League and men and women's FA Cup competitions were suspended on Friday following an emergency meeting sparked by Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta testing positive for the virus a day earlier. Why did we wait until Friday? Why did it take Mikel Arteta to get ill for the game in England to do the right thing?" the former England and Manchester United captain wrote in a column for the Times.
Today at Europe will be played few club friendly games as part of the preparation of the teams for restarting of the season after Corona virus break. Here rivals will be two Croatian teams - Istra 1961 and Gorica.

Over 90 minutes, the only home game lost by Oxford in the last 14 has been against Manchester City. Oxford United are yet to concede a goal in this season's FA Cup. Hartlepool have only won one of their last six away games. Oxford United are having a successful season both in the league and the cups.
Deportivo Saprissa will host Herediano for this fixture of the league. No doubt, Saprissa is the best team in this campaign. They are currently on the 1st position with 33 points. Of course, the hosts will try to make a positive result in this match. However, I think, this will not be an easy task. I expect, the visitors to provide a strong resistance. Herediano is also ambitious team in this league. They are currently on the 3rd place with 26 points. Yeah, the visitors have a poor results in the last matches. In last game Herediano lost 0-1 against Limon. Nevertheless, they will try to pick up at least one point.
How? Put simply, Watford were the better side from start to finish. They pressed Liverpool high up the pitch and were quick to close down the Reds whenever they ventured towards the Hornets box. Klopp himself - well aware that the headlines would be about Liverpool's defeat - was keen to direct praise towards Watford. The most important thing is congratulations Watford - well deserved. That should be the headline.
Portsmouth 2005-06 Portsmouth picked up more points in their final 10 league games (20) than during their first 28 (18). Top league scorer: Lomana LuaLua (7). Other key men: Pedro Mendes, Gary O'Neill, Svetoslav Todorov. Sometimes it just takes one goal to turn things around. With 10 games left, Pompey were eight points from safety when they hosted Manchester City. They were set to go nine games without a win when City cleared a corner towards Pedro Mendes, who slammed a stoppage-time winner into the top corner.
May be enough. When will we actually know for sure? City are appealing the decision to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Switzerland and while that decision is likely to be expedited, the timeframe is unclear. If the court upholds City's ban, the club has the option of taking the matter to the Federal Supreme Court in Switzerland -- which is the designated seat of appeal for CAS decisions, albeit one rarely used.

Belshina host Smolevichy in the 5th round of the Belarusian Premier league. These two teams are basically the worst in the league. The home team, Belshina is ranked last place in the league with 1 point, while the guests Smolevichy have won 2 points and are ranked 1 place above, 15th.
He was ridiculed at the time for such a reaction to a draw against a team of West Brom's status, but he said years later: "I wanted to show that we really are one unit. That means I know I am responsible for the performance, but the people are responsible for the atmosphere. It was the first sign that a bond was developing between Klopp and the club's supporters. Warnock: "I remember watching it and thinking: 'What is he doing?' A draw against West Brom - is that really where he thinks Liverpool are? But it was so much deeper than that, and it set things up for future games at Anfield.
Antalyaspor will host Gazisehir Gaziantep for this fixture of the league. I expect this will be tense match for both sides. Both sides are not very good teams in the last matches. Yeah, Gaziantep have better position in the table. However, they are not convincing team. They have only 1 victory in their last 5 matches. Also, we have Antalyaspor who's is one of the teams of relegation zone. Hosts have a poor results. They have four consecutive losses. In any case, the hosts will try to break the poor series. They want to move from the bottom of the table. My pick - Antalyaspor to win.
Alongside our Man City to win prediction, we're tipping the Citizens to win 2-1 in our correct score forecast. City are without a clean sheet in nine matches, though they conceded more than once on only three separate occasions during that sequence. At the other end City have been a little off the boil of late on their travels, scoring more than twice only once in their last five away games. We expect that aforementioned combination of factors to influence the final score on Wednesday.
The visitors are hoping their two decent results this year have been the result of new boss Davide Nicola, who could really turn their fortunes around. However, it would be pretty unprecedented for him to pick up three points with the Grifone this week. Genoa enjoyed a 2-1 win last time out in Serie A – the last time the Rossoblu won two consecutive league games was back in September 2018, under Davide Ballardini.
Stajcic, now in charge of A-League club Central Coast Mariners, has declined to comment on the review, which has been called a "whitewash" by critics including Stefan Kamasz, a former boss of Football New South Wales, the sport's governing body in Australia's most populous state. Zero credibility. An absolute disgrace," Kamasz tweeted.
Gladbach have failed to win three of their last four league matches. Gladbach have won three of their last five league games against Bayern. Bayern Munich have won their last nine league matches. The last five matches between these teams featured at least three goals. The big fixture in the Bundesliga this weekend sees Bayern Munich welcoming Borussia Monchengladbach to the Allianz Arena.
Basel will against APOEL in match UEFA Europe League. My prediction this match could be the won for Basel with margin score is 1 or 2 goals. Basel have great result on last 6 match in qualification due to Basel have won in 4 match, 1 match is draw and 1 match is lose. Meanwhile, APOEL havealso good result on last 6 match in qualification due to APOEL have won in 3 match, 1 match is draw and 1 match is lose. Nevertheless I think Basel can defeat APOEL on this match due to Basel always win on last 3 match in the home on qualification. Moreover in 1st leg Basel has been defeat APOEL with score 0-3. Surely Basel can defeat APOEL again on this match.

However The Sun, like all newspapers, vigorously defends its right to report.
Man of the match - Bruno Guimares It could have been any of the Lyon midfield really who dominated the game for their side. The goalscorer Tousart was always involved while Dubois and Maxwel Cornet on the flanks were always dangerous, but it was the guile from Guimares who stood out the most controlling the game putting his team-mates in positions to hurt the Italian champions.
Pearson “loved” his time in Belgium, where he helped design the kit and managed a team in front of average crowds of 4,500 for 17 months. RETRO CORNER The Warm-Up remembers watching this live or maybe as a highlight while a top footballing hipster as a university undergraduate way back when. Alas, this clip does not have commentary but, if memory serves correctly, it went a little something like this: "Holy smokes! Dwayne De Rosario with the lightning bolt.

Hakan Sukur is Turkey's greatest ever goalscorer and once one of Europe's most prolific strikers. A legend. So, how did he end up driving taxis and selling books for a living in the US, in exile from his home country?According to an interview with German newspaper, Welt am Sonntag, the 48-year-old former striker's life has taken an unusual and troubling turn since retiring from football in 2008.

West Ham skipper Mark Noble has 45 Premier League goals for the club -- two shy of their record scorer Paolo Di Canio. Saturday, Jan. Crystal Palace v Arsenal (1230) *Palace are unbeaten in their last three games against Arsenal (W1 D2). Arsenal have lost only once at Palace in their last 16 trips in all competitions dating back to December 1980 (W9 D6).
Qatar played all 3 games with over 2.5 goals starting with a 2-1 loss against Iraq as I witness them being quite weak in defense in the decisive game with UAE but mostly the difference in quality between the two sides made Qatar easy win in the end 4-2 that game as defensively even while defending with most players they were easily broken and concede two cheap goals one from the penalty kick and one after a keeper mistake and the keeper of Qatar also made the first penalty kick.
Nonetheless, Barcelona closed out an important victory. TALKING POINT - This was the most interesting tactical match of Quique Setien’s Barca reign so far When Setien was appointed Barcelona manager we were told to expect a tactical showcase from a man with great ideas on how the game should be played.
They were simply undone by a superb team that put together 14 successive wins to retain their crown. And yet Liverpool are on a different level this season, untouchable in pursuit of that elusive title. The Champions League win set the platform and there has been a sense all season that they will end that long wait to get back on their domestic perch for the first time since 1990. Leicester did their best to test Liverpool's nerve with a pre-match display of pyrotechnics and noise plucked straight from a Guns 'n Roses concert.
Inter have an option to extend the deal for Young for a further season and he joins up with former Old Trafford team mates Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez. British media reports said Inter had paid a fee of 1. United. Young, 34, who has converted to fullback after beginning his career as a winger, was out of contract at United at the end of this season.
United has also donated medical equipment and consumables to the Salford Royal, including protective equipment, dressings and other club medical supplies. The club is encouraging its staff to volunteer for the NHS or in their local communities during the pandemic. Staff will continue to be paid in full if volunteer work takes place during working hours.
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.
Liverpool will not say it - there have been too many near misses and false dawns in the 30 years since their last title win to place temptation in fate's path. The lockdown started moments after Jurgen Klopp's side produced arguably their finest performance of the season to overwhelm their nearest challengers Leicester City to go 13 points clear with a game in hand. Liverpool's players, perfectly understandably, were right on title message.
This is a vital game for both sides as they battle to avoid relegation. The away side are in the better form but struggle on their travels. Both teams are rather goal shy at present and the tip here is for the game to have under 2.5 goals scored in it.
It turned out De Bruyne had not taken one for City since October 2016 but he had obviously agreed in advance that it was his turn to have a go. I think he was the right choice and if he does miss one in the future, I don't think he should stop taking them. He has just kept on getting better and better in the past couple of years and, at the level he is at now, I think he could just take it on the chin and think 'I am one of the best players in the world, look what else I deliver'.
Over a million people watch live football at a ground every week, and having spoken to fans across the country, I know that safe standing is an issue many feel passionately about," Sports Minister Nigel Adams said. While top-flight clubs have not been able to allow "standing" areas by using rail seating, lower level sides have done so.
There isn’t a huge amount to pick from between the two sides but home advantage and the form of Alex Jakubiak, who has five goals this term, could be the difference this weekend. We’re backing the home side to win by the most slender of margins in a 1-0 win.
The hosts struggled to break down Southampton's tight defence, and Ralph Hasenhuttl's side rise to 14th, three points clear of the relegation zone, building on last weekend's win over Aston Villa. Chelsea stay fourth with 32 points from 19 games and must pick themselves up for their visit to Arsenal on Sunday.
Santa Clara, much like their opponents, are really struggling at the moment. They were thrashed 4-0 at home to Sporting Lisbon before the winter break, extending their winless streak to seven league matches and leaving them only three points above the drop zone in 15th.
With Brighton's improvement this season stark and Sheffield United's ability to avoid defeat well established, a draw would be seen as an acceptable result for both managers. Three of United’s lats four away matches finished 1-1 and we’re tipping the Blades latest away assignment at Brighton to follow suit.
If France boss Didier Deschamps lifts the trophy he would become the first person to win the World Cup and European Championship both as player and manager. Holders Portugal, with Cristiano Ronaldo now up to 99 international goals, are 12-1 shot. Ronaldo holds the record for most games (21), most goals (nine, joint with Platini) and most tournaments with at least one goal (four) at the European Championship.

This fixture features No. 5 vs No. 7 in the league, Mechelen vs Zulte Waregem. The hosts coming from a 1 - 2 away win to Standard liege (no. 3 in the league) and their last home game a 2 - 2 draw with Sporting Charleroi. The hosts coming from a 1 - 2 home loss to Anderlecht (No. 10 in the league) and their last away game a 1 - 2 win over Waasland-Beveren. The hosts should win this one as they played a higher table team than the visitors and themselves scoring multiple goals but conceded one goal to win the match then drew their last home game to a team above the visitors facing a team coming from playing a team below themselves, scoring and conceding multiple goals to lose the match then winning their last away game to a team below themselves scoring and conceding so a win to the hosts.
