They had not beaten Chelsea in any competition since 1988 and were thumped 4-0 by the Blues in the FA Cup in 2018. The Tigers also went into this game on the back of two league defeats - failing to score a goal in either of those games - but nevertheless gave a good account of themselves with a spirited performance. Top scorer Bowen, linked with a move to the top flight this month, was their busiest player in the first half and managed four shots on goal - more than any other player on the pitch although none of them really troubled Willy Caballero in the Chelsea goal.
Wow! What a goal! Messi picks up the ball, turns, opens up the angle and then fires a strike from just over 20 yards out into the top corner of the Real Mallorca net! Exceptional strike from the great! So much power, so little backlift. Incredible. POST! How didn't that go in? Suarez took the touch inside the box, steadied himself for the shot, but then rattled his effort off the inside of the post and across the face of goal.
The hosts thought they had levelled the tie at 2-2 in the final seconds of regulation time when Jonny Evans nodded in a free kick from James Maddison. But the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) judged the defender to be in an offside position. We did everything we could to turn it around, and we've done that and better.
I am going to go for a draw here, and I actually think it would be a decent result for both teams. Lawro's prediction: 1-1Hugh's prediction: 4-0Matthew's prediction: 3-1SATURDAY Crystal Palace v Arsenal (12:30 GMT)I was very impressed by the way Leeds started against Arsenal in their FA Cup tie on Monday but the Gunners did well in the second half and ended up getting a good win. Mikel Arteta's side also beat Manchester United on New Year's Day, and are looking to put a little run of wins together.

Minsk Res. will against Isloch Res. in match Belarus Vysshaya Liga Reserve. My prediction this match could be the end score is over 2.5 goals due to Isloch Res. on last 3 match in league they can make total score is 8 goals. Meanwhile, Minsk Res. on last 3 match in league they can make total score is 6 goals. Therefore, I think this match will be the end score is over 2.5 goals.

Surely this match will happen again.
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe announced the state of emergency on Tuesday, giving authorities more power to press people to stay at home and businesses to close. Liverpool will be PL champions 'one way another' That's according to UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin. I see no way for Liverpool to stay untitled.
If you're in a job, or if you're out of a job and you're a manager, you want this job. It doesn't matter whatever happens around. I've got to focus on my job and do it as well as I can. I speak with (executive vice-chairman) Ed Woodward and the owners all the time about how we're going to move the club forward.
You can see Neymar tackling. Tuchel added that in addition to the fab four doing some defensive work, the players behind were also going forward. I'm convinced that the four players in front love to play together. But maybe we talk too much about them. They are 11 players on the pitch and they all bring something offensively," the German said.
Chelsea last beat Manchester United in the FA Cup final in 2018, courtesy of Eden Hazard’s goal and heading to this game, they will be looking to avoid defeat for the first time in four meetings this season. On the other hand, Manchester United head to this game as favorites, on a 12-match unbeaten run. Chelsea have scored in seven of their eight matches after lockdown and United have scored in all, pointing to an attacking game at Wembley on Sunday. Meanwhile, Chelsea have three clean sheets and United four in the same period, and going by the two sides’ forms, we will pick on a win for Manchester United.
At his first news conference: "I'm not a sexist. I've lived my life right. On how big a role it is: "I'm England manager. Any job after this will be a step down. After England won the SheBelieves Cup in March 2019: "You don't get many chances to get your hands on a trophy. It is my first as a manager so I am just going to enjoy it. Before the 2019 Fifa Women's World Cup: "I sat in a room with my team just before we played Russia 12 months ago and we were talking about objectives for next year.
Without being overly impressive at either end of the pitch, Gent have made themselves very tough to beat on the continent. They've only kept one clean sheet, which isn't that impressive, but they've got a fantastic habit of keeping themselves in games and coming up with the goods when it matters most.
Adelaide united fc has not yet recorded a defeat when they play against Newcastle Jet since they won their previous three games in a row and they can't have a draw but here to my opinion I think they are going to get an estimate.
Lawro's prediction: 1-1Aitch's prediction: 2-0 Norwich v Everton (18:00 BST)I watched Norwich's defeat by Southampton on Friday and you could have driven a horse and cart through some of the spaces in the Canaries' defence and midfield. Saints won 3-0 at Carrow Road but it could have been by a lot more. That didn't seem to be through lack of fitness or application by Norwich. Yes, they are missing a lot of defensive players, but they were just so open.
They seem to be motivated, they are in a perilous position and understand that, they've to fight for the shirt and that's what I'm doing," he said. They should have been doing it all season, I've managed to galvanise them and pushed them on. Everton defender Michael Keane told BBC Match of the Day: "He has brought the basics back. We know our shape really well, we are working hard for each other, getting stuck in and the last few games it has worked.
Despite their good form, Melbourne City haven’t been able to keep a clean sheet since the opening day draw with Melbourne Victory and always look like conceding. They should have enough to win this weekend but we can certainly see Perth Glory getting on the scoresheet and putting the Melbourne City defence under pressure. The attacking talent of Jamie Maclaren should see the hosts through though and we’re predicting a 3-1 win for Melbourne City this weekend.
Finally Kahn danced across his line to make another comfortable save from Solskjaer’s header. On the bench, Keane turned to the reserve team coach Jimmy Ryan. They’ve gone,” he said. We’ve got them. In his autobiography, Keane elaborated on that observation. For a team with their reputation Bayern were by now a shambles, as bad as bad can be: they were actually ‘bottling’ it big time.
On many occasions this season Atletico have fielded a back four consisting entirely of new signings, and that lack of mutual familiarity has led to a notable vulnerability against set-pieces. Nine of their 17 goals conceded in La Liga (a figure that would be much higher without the routine brilliance of goalkeeper Jan Oblak) have come from dead ball situations. So Atletico can't score, they can't play the ball through midfield and they don't even look particularly secure at the back.
Villa, who have won just once on the road this season, remain in 15th place, a point above the relegation zone after Southampton's win. Follow live text and reaction to all Wednesday's Premier League matchesAbraham's return lifts ChelseaFollowing a tough week in which Premier League defeats by Manchester City and West Ham came either side of a Champions League draw at Valencia, Chelsea were looking to avoid three top-flight defeats in a row for the first time in four years.
People inside the club advised Levy that it was a bad move to start with, but it seems that sense has prevailed in the end. This is an example of how football and footballers are maybe held up to different standards to society. It was said at the time that companies who were of a similar size to Tottenham were using the job retention scheme that the government put in place. But football is different.

Everton have experienced an upturn in form since Duncan Ferguson initially took over the reins and now Ancelotti at the helm but City must keep pushing although the title does seem out of reach. I’m going to tip a Man City win and over 2.5 goals in this game.
Hamilton should have had a penalty when Goldson made an awful mess of a diving header, blocking a cross with a flailing left arm and then landing face-first on the ball. He got away with the gaffe. Then at the death, Miller flummoxed Barisic and was only denied by a terrific Glen Kamara cover tackle. The substitute was injured in the process and had to be substituted himself by Blair Alston. Rangers reset and got a grip of the game after the break.
All games are expected to be held behind closed doors and the league is considering making some available on free-to-air TV. However, some club doctors have raised concerns about restarting the season in June. Aston Villa against neutral Premier League venuesWilder told beIN Sports he wanted to finish the season, "however long it takes". One of the slightly disappointing things is that people have taken a line on their position in the division," he added.
The draw did extend the Seagull's recent unbeaten streak to three matches – a stretch that included a haul of four points from two games against Arsenal and Wolves. Back in the familiar surroundings of the Amex Stadium this weekend, Brighton will be confident that they can prolong that positive sequence against Sheffield United.
Eleventh in the table, Palace have relinquished hopes of a surprise Champions League challenge after two successive defeats. They are ten points off fifth (and sixth), but seventh, and a qualifying spot for the Europa League, is only three points away. Leicester were great at home in the first half of the campaign but their form there has dovetailed in recent months.
They simply haven't been ruthless in the opposition's penalty area. Villa have two games left and a possible winner-takes-all fixture away at West Ham on the last day of the season. If Villa lose either of these games, Grealish must walk. Did you know? Grealish has scored more goals (7), provided more assists (6) and created more chances (87) than any other Villa player in the Premier League this season.
A statement from football's governing body Fifa on Tuesday read: "We will await the final considerations of the Wada executive committee on this matter until any potential material decision is taken by Fifa. Russia also faces exclusion from the Olympic and Paralympic summer and winter games in 2020 and 2022, though individual athletes would be cleared to compete if able to demonstrate they are not implicated in any way by the non-compliance.
With 11 minutes remaining, Didier Drogba was a yard offside when putting Chelsea 2-0 up, and the Blues not only saw out the victory but went on to lift the title by a point. It could well have altered little going forward in the 2010s, but would have added another trophy to Sir Alex Ferguson’s jam-packed cabinet.
He added: "We keep asking players to play tired. Here, we have had people question the training methods - it's nonsense, it's playing tired players. Bruce said he supports the idea of a winter break, but cutting it short "wasn't quite right" and asking players to play 15 games in two months is "ridiculous". Chelsea and Manchester United have had the longest winter breaks with 16 days between their two games, while Southampton only had 10 days between their matches.

Crystal Palace forward Wilfried Zaha has called for "action", "education" and "change" after being racially abused on social media. A 12-year-old boy has been arrested by police investigating racist messages sent to Zaha, which the player revealed before Sunday's defeat at Aston Villa. The Premier League called the abuse of the 27-year-old Ivory Coast winger "completely unacceptable". Zaha thanked police, and also thanked fans for their "love and support".
We kept them fit until we knew until we go again and the boys don't lose a lot. Unfortunately it is not like riding a bike. We have to bring 11 or more players together to have the same idea in the same moment. Trent Alexander-Arnold: The Merseyside derby, the title race and Jurgen KloppSunday's is the 236th Merseyside derby and comes 103 days since Liverpool last played, in their home second leg against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League, which saw them exit the tournament they won the previous May.
The home team Throttur will be meeting with the away team Grotta and this game looking at it in a very good way we have given an over of 2.5 total goals as looking at the last games this two teams have played together they are very used of of scoring an over of 2.5 total goals and so this makes us to be very sure with this but
England will be playing in the invitational four-team tournament in the United States, where they will face the USA, Japan and Spain. However, Lionesses manager Phil Neville will be concerned about the fitness of City goalkeeper Ellie Roebuck, who was carried off the field of play deep into second-half stoppage time with what looked a serious ankle injury. The top-flight season is due to resume on 22 March.
Juventus have lost only one of their last 29 Serie A games against Lazio (W22 D6), and only once have they not scored in that run. Meanwhile, Lazio’s last home win against Juventus in Serie A was back in December 2003. The pair have similar records with Lazio unbeaten at home and Juve unbeaten away, each winning five of seven games. However, expect them to share the points this weekend, as we’re backing a 2-2 draw.
We needed to give him time to bring him in calmly at international level. But for an under-17 player, Odsonne had impressive emotional control, especially in front of goal. Here, Giuntini, who has spent the past decade in charge of the French national youth sides, tells BBC Scotland about his role in the making of the Celtic striker. Bringing out his hidden qualities'Euros success was the crowning achievement of the four years - from under-16s through to U19s - that the pair worked together.
Albion and Villa have looked less than prolific up front of late, averaging just 0.8 goals per 90 minutes over their last six games respectively, and even with clean sheets out of the question for both porous defences, a goal a piece seems about the limit of their current attacking capabilities.
We have to take every measure possible to ensure that doesn't happen. But if it does, the party is over. With 11 matches still to be played, Barcelona lead Real Madrid by two points at the top of the standings, while the battle to avoid relegation is also finely balanced. La Liga's organising body has put the estimated cost of the season not finishing at 700 million euros ($772 million) and has vowed to finish the season, as has the national soccer federation.
Al sailiya fc have 2 wins and 2 losses in the last 5 matches. They have scored 5 goals and conceded 5 goals in the last 5 league matches. At home they managed to win 2 and lose 2 of their last 5 games scoring 6 goals and conceding 7 goals.
We’re confident that Benfica will win-to-nil on Saturday and we have predicted a final score of 3-0. The hosts have a great record against their guests, head into the game as the clear form favourites, and have an excellent clean sheets record at home this season, while Maritimo are out of form, have struggled most of the season, and have failed to score in their last two away games.
