They look to get back in winning ways when traveling to 17th placed West Ham United. City have conceded seven goals in their last two games and have shown they are still a fair bit behind Liverpool and Manchester City. City are still a dangerous side though and up against the lesser opposition of West Ham are likely to fare much better.
Unlucky Morrow gets medal on pitch before kick-off Bizarre barely does it justice. Having scored the winner in Arsenal's victory over Sheffield Wednesday at Wembley, the 1993 League Cup final should have been one of the most joyous occasions of Steve Morrow's career. However, amidst the celebrations on the pitch after the final whistle, Arsenal captain Tony Adams slipped while parading the match-winner on his shoulders.

The Manchester City defensive issues we mentioned earlier mean that we are expecting a goal for the hosts, but the odds on offer for Manchester City to claim a third 3-1 win away from home in the league do look enticing.
Mundo Deportivo reported that Barcelona forward Messi has donated a total of 1m euros to two hospitals, one in Barcelona and the other in his native Argentina.

We had to wait 13 weeks, it was 13 long weeks with uncertainty but a lot of our fans had to wait 30 years so it was a short time compared to what they've had," Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson said.

EVERTON CHANCE! Calvert-Lewin sees his goal-bound shot brilliantly blocked after good work by Richarlison on the left of the area. KEY STATS Gabriel Martinelli's effort in the 44th minute was Arsenal's first shot in the match, their longest wait for a first attempt in a Premier League game since May 2015 against Man Utd (51st minute).
His side were to play closed door games at Doha's Aspire Academy before heading home to face Costa Rica in Carson, Calif. Feb. That game will go ahead as planned, U. S. Soccer said, and they are now working on an alternative schedule to prepare for that fixture. We are working with the Qatar Football Association to find an opportunity in the near future for our team to experience Qatar's world-class facilities and hospitality," U.
I do not really rate the hosts that strongly I mean they barely won with Sunshine Coast Wanderers 4-3 at home and that is probably the weakest club they are going to face in a home game this season and they conceded 3 goals, watched them lose on the road on opening round 3-0 to Brisbane U21 and they were really poor to this league level and it is to be expected as after all they are just a newly promoted side and from what I heard from the commentators some players left before the season started to better clubs in NPL Queensland.

They youth sides of these two clubs met yesterday in a game where Energetik U21 was rated at 2.00 favorite to win the game but they were dominated from start to finish had to face about 20 shots from a very attacking minded opponent who had the lead 3-0 from half-time and scored 3 more goals in the second half to win with no less than 6-0 in the end. And Energetik lost lately with 4-2 at home to Kopetdag side which had the lead 4-0 from half-time of the game while last round they took the lead 1-0 at home with modest Merw side but by half-time they were 2-1 down and also received a red card and that was the way the game ended.
Today at Europe will be played few club friendly games as preparation of the teams for restarting the season after Corona virus break. At the present game rivals will be two teams from Czech Republic - Brno and Zlin.
COMING UP How have we gone a whole Warm-Up without talking about Jose Mourinho’s return to Old Trafford? That’s happening tonight, at a palatable 19:30 GMT, before Liverpool face Everton in that Merseyside Derby (come on you Toffees, remember?!) at a sleep-disruptive 20:15. Andi Thomas is planning to go to bed at half-time of Liverpool v Everton in protest at the start time – so head here tomorrow for his first-half analysis tomorrow.
He recalls one particular ending to the 2016-17 campaign. It was the last game of the season. We were playing away at Swansea when they were in the Premier League and winning 1-0. They were a good team, slick. It was baking hot and we were not playing Tony Pulis football, it was lovely football. We get in half-time and he goes 'what are you doing?! What is that?' He holds up a picture of a pitch and draws a line from one 18-yard line all the way across to the other and scribbles out the middle of the pitch.

Lawro's prediction: 0-3Alex's prediction: I think this will be close too. Newcastle will be ahead at half-time and still 1-0 up late on - but City will take it in normal time. MONDAY Crystal Palace v Burnley (Premier League, 20:00 BST)Both of these sides basically played without the ball when they lost heavily to Liverpool (Palace) and Manchester City (Burnley) in the past week. Someone will have to have it this time, but they both like to make it difficult for their opponents, or at least try to.
A win and a draw against CSKA Moscow and a draw in the return fixture against Espanyol put the side just one point behind Ludogorets in third place and they'll know that their match against the Bulgarian side in matchweek six will likely be a straight shootout to see who joins Espanyol in the knockout stages. Despite their efforts in the Europa League this season, Ferencvaros have only scored twice, something which could hugely stunt them in their quest to advance.
Wenger's golden period was a fading memory and Arsenal's membership of the Premier League's "top-four" club had expired. Flat-track bullies, Arsenal had been left behind by the likes of Manchester City, Liverpool and even arch-enemies Tottenham Hotspur, all of whom had adopted "high energy" football under Pep Guardiola, Juergen Klopp and Mauricio Pochettino.
Rashford's charity appeal Is there a more endearing player in football than Marcus Rashford? Yesterday, in response to the news that schools and educational settings would be closed to everyone except children of designated key workers from Friday afternoon, the Manchester United striker launched an appeal for people to donate to FareShare to help support kids who rely on free school means.
Home team is have better chances to win in this match from England Championship, but it is better to bet on goals in this duel, at least I think so. So, Barnsley is team who is after two loses, 1-2 and 2-4 in last round won one point, 1-1, while on the other side Birmingham City is playing better and better in every round. They are not lose for a long time any match and in last round, they are won 3-1. I believe in 2-1 win one of this two rivals tonight and I will bet on goals, it is real.
Unlike Uefa, which can punish clubs or national associations for fans' behaviour through a strict liability clause, the Football Association leaves sanctions to the police or the club. For mass discriminatory chanting, however, it can take action. Millwall were fined £10,000 after fans chanted racist language during an FA Cup tie last January, so there is a precedent. After the "rent boy" chants, the FA said it was not investigating the incidents but added it was in ongoing discussions with the police and Kick It Out to determine what language is deemed discriminatory.
Arsenal have held a meeting with Manchester City coach Mikel Arteta to discuss their managerial vacancy. Gunners chief executive Vinai Venkatesham is thought to have met the Spaniard in the north-west of England after both flew north following City's 3-0 win at Emirates Stadium on Sunday. It is not known whether Arteta, 37, has been offered the chance to succeed Unai Emery, who was sacked in November.

We know that he can play and knows what the demands of the Premier League are. He's gone from the Premier League to Schalke and played in the Champions League as well, so we're delighted to get him. It's a great signing. Newcastle are 12th in the league but have nine players injured. Bruce said on Monday that centre back Paul Dummett and on-loan left back Jetro Willems were out for the rest of the season.
Fresh from beating Arsenal 2-1 last-time out, Brighton showed no fear against a Wolves side that had not lost in their previous 10 games and could easily have been out of sight in the first half, with Maupay's energy and Mooy's creativity proving a constant menace for the visitors' backline. But Wolves' attacking flair is a lot for many Premier League teams to handle and in the end a draw was perhaps a fair result.
Liverpool not at most fluent- but win againLiverpool may not have been at their best - there were even spells in the second half when they looked jaded - but this is a team on a seemingly unstoppable run to the Premier League title. This was their 12th successive league win and it is a remarkable feat to have dropped only two league points from their first 21 games - something no other team in Europe's elite leagues have ever achieved.
We won 2-0? You're having me on!' Media playback is not supported on this device Phone-in fan who did not know scoreOne Coventry fan unwittingly made himself a star when he called into BBC Coventry & Warwickshire to lambast his side's failure to score in the second leg of their Johnstone's Paint Trophy northern area final against Crewe Alexandra in February 2013. The Sky Blues, who were 3-0 down from the first leg, were drawing 0-0 when the fan decided he'd had enough and headed for the car to call up and share his views.
Leipzig will be meeting with Hertha and this game we have given the home team to win this game as looking at the last games this two teams have played together the home team have being winning the game when they are especially playing at home and so this being a home game we can be very sure that they will continue with the same trend on this game

I don't think short term, I always think long term and try to make good deals. I'm always quite careful with money. David Silva will leave Manchester City at the end of the season not only as a club legend but a Premier League one too. Despite being 34 and approaching the latter end of his career, the midfield magician displayed a masterclass in City's 5-0 thrashing of Newcastle on Wednesday. Graceful on the ball with a sweet left foot, Silva led the way for touches (136), passes (112), opposition half passes (65), duels (14), possession gained (six), tackles (two), shots (four) and assists (two) in the contest, as well as scoring a stunning free-kick.
In a frantic spell in the second half, Lewis Wing levelled from 25 yards before Bryan Mbeumo restored the lead for the Bees. Boro levelled again three minutes later through Ashley Fletcher's header but Watkins struck from close range to seal the win. The result means Brentford remain in fourth and are two points behind third-placed Fulham and second-placed Leeds United. Brentford could drop to fifth depending on the result when Leeds take on fifth-placed Nottingham Forest in Saturday's late Championship fixture.
Mainz will welcome Leipzig today as they hope to get one past their rivals and get back to winning ways after a 2-2 draw in their last game they have been playing well with no defeat in their last 3 games but am not sure if they will be able to manage a Leipzig side full of star players.
He had previously criticised players for not "playing their part" by failing to agree pay cuts across the league. County players take pay cuts, waive prize money England's county cricketers will forgo £1million in prize money and take pay cuts in April and May to help protect the domestic game during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Professional Cricketers' Association (PCA) has said.
Are they Europa League 'class'? No, I don't think they are but they have certainly enhanced the Premier League. Leicester have Vardy up front and Evans at the back. The Blades lack that touch of class. Did you know? In Leicester's clash with Sheffield United, Evans made more passes (67) than any other player on the park and was involved in 15 duels as the Foxes won with a clean sheet. Midfield - Jack Grealish (Aston Villa), Bruno Fernandes (Man Utd), David Silva (Man City), Son Heung-min (Spurs) Grealish: I can't imagine the anguish Jack Grealish must be going through.
Koulibaly is another option for the defence. Chelsea do have a fair selection of centre-backs already, but Christiansen and arguably Zouma have fallen short this year, so another solid central defender might fit nicely and would likely guarantee a top 4 place. However, as with Man City, they will have to compete with a fair few other clubs for his signature.
No two sides from the same nation can be drawn together, so the Reds will also avoid Tottenham and Chelsea, as well as Napoli, who finished second in Group E. That means they could face Atalanta or Lyon, although Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Borussia Dortmund are also potential opponents. We'll wait for the draw and see who we get in the last 16," added Robertson. We know it'll be tough regardless but we look forward to the challenge as we want to go far in this tournament again.
However, the Edinburgh club still has a lot of problems to deal with, namely in defence where they've only kept a clean sheet on one occasion on the opening day of the campaign. Hibs face the same difficulty away from home, conceding an average of 2.33 goals but also managing to net 1.17 times on their travels. Moreover, the Hibees have won away at bottom-placed St Johnstone and have recently drawn with Hamilton.

Wales midfielder Ramsey pounced onto a loose ball before rifling home the opener and Dybala scored a classy second - from Ramsey's pass - with some nice footwork to dummy Ashley Young before poking home. Inter's title challenge is likely to be over as they now sit nine points behind Juventus. Cristiano Ronaldo - who pretended to high-five where fans would have been standing on the way into the stadium - failed to score for the first time in Serie A since 10 November.

Spurs announce U-Turn on decision to furlough staff Chelsea say ex-boss Vialli given all-clear in pancreatic cancer battle Expert view from Germany: The plan behind Neuer's extraordinary demands With a year left on his contract, Arsenal are in something of a bind. They can offer Aubameyang the wages his talent deserves, but that is fraught with risk.
His close-range header had to find the net - just had to - but when it came back up off the turf Forster palmed it away. Three massive moments in five minutes and still no Rangers goal. This outrageously compelling and consistently trippy final then went up another notch in the bizarre-o-meter. Having been out-fought, out-thought and out-played, Celtic went ahead when Jullien slammed home from Christie's free-kick.
